GROUP CALL

CHAPTER 4

We got to the second floor, "This is the dining hall, the table at the right is for boys, the table at the left is for girls" Bloom explained.

Mitchell tugged at my sleeve, she looked at the boys table "There's Skye".

He was glued to his phone so I couldn't see his face, by his side was Blaze; I decided to get his attention "Blaze!!!"

As soon as I called Blaze, Skye raised his head to see which girl was calling his new friend, as he raised his head then I understood what Mitchell was saying, he was like an angel in human form, he had this Alregian cute and handsome face, his hair so dark, full and long with some parts almost covering his left eye. His eyes were brown, his pink lips showing very brightly, his lashes long with brows that were well groomed and defined. His jaw-line sharp, making him look like a god. Blaze ran over to me and woke me up from my thoughts "Cherry are you okay?"

"I'm good and you."

"Cool….." Blaze started talking all sort of things.

l was completely lost, I couldn't even hear a word of what Blaze was saying. My thoughts ran all over Skye. Bloom left us and went to a corner, Skye stood up to meet her. That's when I understood what Mitchell meant by cute muscles, he's even tall like tall, God really took his time to create Bloom and Skye.

"Cherry, Cherry are you okay?" Blaze asked again trying to wake me from my thoughts.

"I…I'm perfectly f..fine." I stuttered.

"Are you sure? Cos you kinda phased out there"

"I'm fine, I was just thinking of something."

"OK, umm… Do you perhaps have any snack? We've not eaten since and this is 2:00pm and you know. How I can be when I'm hungry?"

"Alright, I'll get some for you."

Bloom and Skye came to meet us, "Cherry, this is my brother Skye."

I brought out my hand for a handshake "Nice to meet you" but he didn't respond at all, no gesture no bodily movement.

"Bloom, Cherry I'll leave now, I have something to do" Mitchell said.

"OK, I said" then she left.

"Bloom could you accompany me? I need to get some snacks for Blaze."

"You brought snacks!!! she said, surprised.

"Yeah, but please don't tell anyone"

"Your secret is safe with me but you can't give to only Blaze" Bloom said

I got snacks for Bloom, Skye, Blaze and myself, but Skye didn't accept the snacks, he just sat next to his sister holding his phone, I felt really bad.

"Don't feel bad, he's like that, it takes time for him to become friends with a girl in fact he doesn't even talk or smile with girls except me but you're a nice person, I'm sure he'll come around very soon" Bloom said with a smile.

I just nodded my head then continued eating, Blaze, Bloom and I laughed and talked for a long time, no one came to the dining until it was time for dinner which was by 6:00pm. We threw away the snacks wraps and sat down like nothing happened. After dinning, when I got back to my room I got to know that Bloom was my roommate. By 9:00pm I was prepared to go to bed, ten minutes after I slept off.

The next day in the morning by 7:00am, we all assembled in the dining hall, Lady Jane had an important announcement to make. She started "Dear students, I'm afraid we have bad news the MG'S are moving too fast, they have only three countries to conquer after which they'll come for ARIA( a continent were SHUNGAI AND ALREGIA are located), you were supposed to have a month of intense training but we'll have to cut that short, you'll be shared into groups as I call your name step out.

FLYING EAGLES – Kim Cherry, Skye Xukun, Bloom Xukun, Blaze Song"

We stepped out, "I can't believe we ended up as team mates" I muttered, then Lady Jane proceeded.

"SHARP SHOOTERS – Stacey Agreste, Mitchell Winfrey, Jeremy Wayne, Drake Andrew.

GALAXY WARRIORS – Pragya Agarwal, Lovelyn Austin, Justin Lucas, Charles Focker.

WONDER HEROES – Rose Franklin, Tania Miles, Shaurya Khanna, Abdul Mohammed.

STRONG FIGHTERS – Tasha Jinbo, Joy Edwardo, Ferdinand Davies, Jayden Fridge."

Lady Jane continued "you are going to use these Duffel bags" she said as two men started sharing the bags to each team members, our names were tagged on them.

"You'll use these bags to pack your most important items, your jumpsuit and your boots should be packed too. You should be done by 2:00pm".

I became curious, i asked "Lady Jane why do we need to pack our things?"

"Don't worry Cherry, you'll understand everything soon, and please try to have as much rest as possible, your breakfast will be served now"

The chef served us our meals, we took our seats in the dining, and we were served wontons and dumplings with pearl milk tea.

After breakfast everyone went to their rooms, Bloom and i were able to finish packing in an hour. I called my mom and told her what was happening, she told me that there is a huge lockdown in SHUNGAI and Blaze's parents were in the underground house with them. By 11:00pm i and Bloom became tired, so we slept, that was the last time we saw ourselves in the RA.
