Chapter 7: Meeting part-II

He climbs on behind her. His muscular arms holds her steady on both sides.

'Wait! I feel safe in his arms?'

And they set off down to the road.

Fu Mobai asked gently, "Are you all alright?"

She replied, "How can I be all alright?"

Fu Mobai said while keep his eyes ahead on road, "I mean riding up here. I understand this is frightening, you nearly died. You'd have dead if it wasn't for us."

He moved closer to her and speak into her ears. She can hear his words as his warm breath touches her skin and it feels his breath is burning her skin.

On the journey, she have fallen asleep against the Fu Mobai's wide chest.

'I can't believe I fall asleep while riding horse with a stranger!'

Maybe she's overly exhausted henceforth she fell asleep. It was a really long and tiring day. So many things happened she can't believe herself yet, but truth is infront of her eyes. While riding horse Fu Mobai kept her from falling.

She looked up and realised that the rain has stopped already. They've arrived at a very impressive gate. You can see beautiful manicured gardens and stately building inside.

Lu Weiyi, " Is this your school?"

Fu Mobai replied her, "Yes, this is Sky High Academy."

'What does that mean? Maybe he didn't hear me saying "your school". '

The big golden coloured gate open and the three horses pass through. Armed guards are standing at both sides of gate. They closed and locked the gate behind.

'What are they so afraid of?'

They all climbed down from theirs horses.

Shen Siyu steps forward and offered, " Let me take you to Mr. Lu, human girl."

Lu Weiyi barked at him, " I told you before, my name is Lu Weiyi."

"I prefer 'Human girl' ." He said with a flirtirious smile plastered on his face.

Lu Weiyi said in a displeasure tone, " But you don't get to choose. A person's name is a person's name."

Shen Siyu snort, " You really quite bossy, Human girl!"

She stayed quite, don't want to waste her breath on him.

'This zombie is so sassy! Not to mention he's stubborn! But he's taking me to orginal owner's father, so luckily I'll soon be rid of him.'

Thinking of this her mood improved.

When Lu Weiyi arrived at Lu Hao's office, the fear of getting annoyed by Demis falls away.

She sat down on the chair that the secretary motions to, looking around the huge office.

The decoration of the office is in europian style, quite same as 21st century.

The Secretary said, "Miss please wait for a while. Mr.Lu will arrive shortly."

Sometimes passed away, then the door open and a middle age man in his 40's with good looking features entered. He look very respectable. He hold out his hand to Lu Weiyi and they both shake their hands in greeting.

Lu Hao spoke first, "Weiyi, I heard your terrible ordeal getting here. I'm so glad that I've sent those three young men to pick you up. I was worried about your journey here."

He spoke again after a pause, "But at least you've arrived safely."

Lu Weiyi blared out, "Yes, it was quite surprising to know that you are still alive, when you're supposed to be dead."

Lu Hao said with a sad expression, " I can imagine. I'm sorry about that. We just thought it was for your best."

She said according to previous owner's memories, " Yes, Aunt Xinyu told me."

Lu Hao sigh and said, " She did a good job by raising you into beautiful and charming young lady."

Lu Weiyi, " I've had a happy life in the Human Town."

Lu Hao, " And of course, it's safe there."

Then the secretary brought in a tray with tea and scones. Her tammy makes a sound only then she realised that she didn't have eaten anything for a whole day.

Lu Hao must have heard the sound and able to see how hunger she was from her face.

Lu Hao said, " Go ahead. Dig in!"

She pour herself some tea and quickly ate some scones, then she sit back satisfied.

Lu Weiyi questioned, " Tell me what you've been doing all this year."

'i have to gather more information about this world from him. Hope he doesn't disappoint me.'

Lu Hao replied, " As you know, I've been living here in the Silverland."

Lu Weiyi, "What you have been doing out here? Aren't you scared of Demihumans?"

He laughs and said, " Never, The Demihumans are my friends."

Then he said, " Most of my work has been about protecting them."

Lu Weiyi was surprised to hear that, according to her thinking she thought how can a human protect those Demihumans, who are clearly stronger than human race.

So she asked, "Protecting them?"

Lu Hao, "Yes, have you ever heard of the Anti- Demihuman League, the ADL?"

She replied with a confusion look, "No"

'What the hell is that? An organization?'

Lu Hao, " Well, most of my work has been fighting them and protect Demihumans. They want to get rid of all the Demis."

Lu Weiyi was in deep thought before she speak again, " Isn't out there says Demi kills human? Is it a bad things to clear them all?"

Lu Hao, " Of course it is. They have the right to live just like us humans."

He sigh then said, "No, they don't kill people. All of that nonsense. The ALD produces all sorts of propaganda. They even hunt down the Demis."

Lu Weiyi, " So you've been helping them all this time?"

Lu Hao, " Yes."

Lu Weiyi, " So that's why you live here in Silverland?"

Lu Hao again replied with, " Yes."

Lu Weiyi asked, " If the Demis aren't dangerous, then why didn't you bring me here long ago?"

Lu Hao sits down on his desk and straighten a pile of papers there.

And said, " The Demis themselves aren't dangerous. Not normally. Occasionally, the ALD and the Demis fought with each other and that can be dangerous. Just like you, Weiyi, some Demi's have been fed up with propaganda, so some of them hate humans."

"Some even kill human because of the terrible way that humans have treated them in the past. Human like those in the ALD."

Lu Weiyi said, " Then during the time I stay here I have to watch myself well. Since I don't want that human-hating Demis do anything like they shouldn't to me."

Father Lu looks out of the window and said, "Yes..... We'll see about all that."

Lu Weiyi, " One thing I quite don't understand is... Why did you send those three Demis to find me? Why not Humans?"

Father Lu, " Weiyi, Sky High Academy is a..... School for Demis."

Lu Weiyi, " What?!! School for Demis?"

"No wonder, those three Demis keep saying our school and also looked at me as if I'm crazy. No its all make sense.'

Father Lu, " Yes, Weiyi."

Lu Weiyi, "Then.... Why did you bring me here?"

Father Lu spoke, " My dream is that in the future, Demis and Humans will all live togather. There will be no Human Town or Demi Town."

'Oh c'mon Mister! Does I have anything do with your dream?'

Lu Weiyi, "But I don't understand. What does that have to do with me?"

Father Lu, "You're out first human student."

Lu Weiyi raised her one brow and asked, "So...?"

Father Lu replied, " You're a pioneer. A trailblazer making a path to human-demi harmony. You should be proud of this."

'Oh shit! I can't believe this Old man of original owner just using her as a medium of human-demi harmony? Damn!!! How can he just throw me in middle of this bunch of ignorance Demi brats. Just thinking of I have to deal with those ignorance brats here, giving me a huge headache. And how the hell can he decides this without even asking my opinion.... Arrghhh I'm so mad, I wanna murder someone.'
