At Evergreen high (Peter and Paul's school), Peter was seen walking alone worried and lost in thoughts. It was the interview of prefect selection for his set members and he was nominated along with a whole bunch of other people. Miles later walked up to him and said;
Miles: Hey! How are you today?
Peter: What can I say Miles? After finding out the truth about my family, everything just feels different
Miles: I understand what you are going through, but we have finished Ss2 and we are about to be interviewed for prefect titles. So that should be the only thought on your mind, at least right now
Peter: I guess you are right Miles
The Interview began at 10:00AM and all the nominees that were selected where in the vice principals office. Each nominee was called in, interviewed and was told that those selected will be called out later that day. Peter after his interview came out and met Paul and Miles (who have also finished their interview) waiting for him;
Miles: How did it go?
Peter: I don't know. To be honest, I don't really know if I will be selected because I lost focus like three times when I was in there
Paul: Even so, I am sure you know the post that you will be given!
Peter: Meaning?
Miles: He means you will obviously be the senior prefect
Peter: (Laughing) Me! I doubt
Miles: So what do we do now? I mean we are through with examinations and we are waiting for results as well
Paul: Hey Miles, Why don't we go play basket ball
Miles: Sure, why not. Would you care to join us Peter?
Peter: Nah, I am good
Miles: Okay then, see you later
Miles and Paul both went to the court while Peter Isolated himself in an empty class. As he was still lost in thought, a man in mask appeared and walked up to him;
Peter: Who are you? ("Or is this the kidnapper" he thought)
Masked guy: I come in peace Peter
Peter: How do you know my name?
Masked guy: I am from a clan that was long divided in Mash. I know you have found out about your families secret, so I am here to offer a proposal
Peter: Which is?
Masked guy: Come with me and I will train you to become a good swordsman, and when you are, your trait will be transferred to me. I know you don't really want anything to do with it anyways
Peter: Why should I trust you? I mean I don't even know you. And why would I want my traits to be transferred to you? I mean, is it even possible?
Masked guy: (Smiling) You have no idea. I also understand how you feel. You feel it is unfair that you have skills you didn't ask for. I can help you by transferring them to me
Peter: And this will benefit you how?
Masked guy: I have my goal
Peter: I am sorry but I don't trust you so I won't go anywhere with you
Masked guy: You really do not have a choice in the matter
The masked man then brought out something wrapped in a cloth and showed Peter;
Peter: This is.....
Masked guy: Yes it is exactly what it seems
Peter: How long will I train?
Masked guy: A year
Peter: A year!! That means I will be away from my family for a whole year
Masked guy: Yeah and like I said before, you have no choice in the matter
Peter: Okay, I will come with you. But you have to give me a bit of time to process all of this first
Masked guy: Sure, but remember you do not have much time
The masked guy then left. Later that day, it was time for collection of results and announcement of prefect ship title. As usual, Peter topped his class while Miles came out second, Paul for the first time came out second as well, Rebecca third and Ronda first, as usual. They students then, all gathered on the assembly ground to hear the names of the incoming Prefects;
Vice Principal: And now for the moment we have all been waiting for; the prefect titles for the 1995/1996 session are awarded to

Peter was shocked and as he came out for the entire school to see him, the students applauded
The Vice principal continued;

Vice principal: These are our newly selected prefects. I want you, the students to respect them as they see to aiding our school in the best and possible way they can. Congratulations newly selected prefects
The students were still applauding as the prefects went back to their respective lines. It was then time to go home and everyone headed for the gate. All the prefects received a 'Congratulations!' from either students or teachers
Paul: Yes we don't resume for Ss3 till after two months. That means we have time to rest especially after writing all those mock exams (he said as he walked home together with Miles and Peter)
Miles: You seem happy
Paul: Why wouldn't I be?
Peter: Guys, I have something to tell you. I am leaving
Paul: What do you mean by that?
Peter: I mean I am going away, for good
Paul: You must be joking! Come on, let's go home
Just then, the masked man came out of nowhere;
Masked guy: I am afraid he is not joking. He is leaving with me
Paul: Who are you?
Masked guy: It doesn't matter but maybe I will tell you some other time. Peter, are you ready?
Peter: How did you find me? And how did you know I was ready to leave?
Masked guy: I keep tabs on your movement, that's how. Come on let's go!
Paul: Peter, are you seriously going to go with this freak you have never met before?
Peter: Trust me. It is for your own good
Miles: Peter, I am sure we can work something out
Peter: It is too late Miles. Just do me a favor baby bro, tell mum and dad; I am sorry
Peter then turned and was about to leave when Paul ran up to him and stopped him;
Paul: You really want to run away from everyone and me because you are scared of what lies for us in the future, then fine. But if you care about me like you claim to big bro, you would not leave
Peter looked at Paul with tears in his eyes;
Peter: I am sorry Paul
He then walked towards the masked guy and said "let's go"
Paul: Peter don't (he said trying to stop them but the masked guy hit Paul until he became unconscious)
Miles: (Yelling) Paul!
Miles then ran to support Paul's head from hitting the ground;
Peter: I am so sorry brother (saying softly as he watched this)
He then turned and left with the masked guy. After sometime, Miles managed to revive Paul;
Paul: Where is he, Peter?
Miles: (looking sad) I am sorry, but he left.
