SOMETHING EXPLOSIVE!!.

***The Upper sector of the Outskirts of 'Eclipse of the Ocean', Clingford's Academy...

***Late noon..

 After the mild incident, the day passes by slowly for Navi with watching a death duel challenge being the highlight of his day and probably his week.

 He is not sure weather the death duel would get an official approval as he doesn't know the full story and although he's curious, Navi is also too lazy to ask around for more information especially when all he would get would be diluted rumors.

 Sitting on the familiar set of stairs around the below ground level training site, Navi has his attention on a book in his hands. Under the setting sun, Navi practices his leisure hobby. His body is still too strained for practice and since he can't sleep, reading is another way for him to relieve his minf.

*HUA!*..*HUA!*..*HUA!*..

 Shouts of co-ordinated passions accompanied by sharp movements are produced from a new set of disciples who have just recently started the noon's martial arts routines under the watchful eyes of their Martial masters.

 Navi can ignore the shouts but the smell of dirt and sweat coming from the surrounding is getting a bit too much for his dizzy mind to bear especially whrn Navi is looking for nothing more but relaxation.

 A harsh breath blows out of Navi's nostrils in annoyance as he takes his gaze off the book and looks towards the setting sun at the horizons.

 Beautiful.

 The sunset used to be even more beautiful when Navi used to watch its brilliance with his mother.

Subconsciously, his fingers moves to massage his teardrop pendant as he swallows saliva down his suddenly dry throat.

 Forcefully trying to snap out of the waves of sadness forming over his mind, Navi stands up before patting his clothes clean. He suddenly does not feel like staying outside or examining the beauty of the noon anymore.

 With calm and heavy steps, Navi maps his way back to the dormitory building that holds his quarters. Getting into the building, he first goes to the bathroom for a shower as he is not planning on going back out tonight.

 In the shower, cold running water rolls off his skin as he stares at his blurry reflection in the mirror.

Looking into the mirror, Navi just cannot help but get dark flashes of that kid in his memory-like dreams. His mind outlined as the kid ruthlessly slays and slashed-down his way through over thirty armed men.

 The child in his dreams had ink black hair just like his own and their facial features are almost identical to his own when he was ten years old though,.. there is one feature from the kid that stands clearly apart from his own.

 His eyes.

 Navi sweeps his palm across the steamy glass as he looks into his own reflection only for his expression to change from calm to shock and a bit of uncontrolled fear.

 Looking right back at him is his own reflection,.. instead of his usual layered orange eyes the reflection that is staring back at him holds a pair of beautiful cold purple eyes!.

 Just like the version of himself in his dreams but only this time.. it's reality!.

 Navi shakes his head fast and blinks before looking at the mirror once more with his breathing faster than normal and tension strains his fingers.

 *Sigh*, A deep sigh of pure and shaky relief soon escapes Navi's throat as his tense mind hits relief.

The reflection of himself in the mirror no longer has purple eyes but has returned to his own orange eyes while making him instantly believe that it is all nothing but his mind playing tricks.

 It's seems the stress has gotten to him while making him see things for a second though now, Navi has snapped out of his daze.

 No matter how mature he is or acts Navi is still a twelve year old who just lost his mother recently.

Adding this up with his sleepless nights and the trauma from his dreams, cracks seems to be slowly starting to appear on his mental state.

 Closing his eyes for a moment, Navi lazily hits the tap to stop the running water as he keeps looking at himself in the mirror.

He is smart enough to know that he cannot tell anyone about the things going on with him but he also knows that he needs an outlet for his stress build up.

 Something explosive!.

 With this thought in mind, Navi re-dresses himself in loose blue robes and moves through the buildings hallway till he's in front of his quarters door.

 Dbout to open the his room's, Navi's brows suddenly crunches up for an unknown reason,..

Something is off.

 He has no idea why but he can just feel that something is off in his quarters. Not hesitating any further, Navi swiftly pulls open the door and steps inside the familiar space.

 Everything looks same as usual with the bunk bed by the walls and their individual cabinets each at the corners of the room. The only notable change which is not much of a change is that one of his room mates is currently sleeping on a bunk bed with the back of his right palm over his eyes.

 Navi takes it all of this in with silence before moving to open up his cabinet. It only takes a glance for him to realize the problem.

Just as he thought, someone that isn't him has picked open the padlocks that have been placed to guard his cabinets.

 The person had done quite a good job covering it up though with the type of memory Navi has, there's no such thing as a perfect job.

 Navi does not even need to go through his stuff in order to guess what they have been looking for.

Whoever it was were out for money,.. his money.

 Navi still has wealth of about Fifty-five pints left and this comes from the rest his mother's severance pay. He would be a utter fool to have kept this amount in a cabinet.

 The rest of his money is safely buried in his house at a location no thief can casually guess thus leaving him with just about three bronze pints to sustain himself till his first holiday break which is coming in two months.

 With a glance, Navi confirms that nothing is missing from his cabinet yet despite losing nothing, Navi does not like the fact that someone has the guts to go through his things though he's smart enough to avoid pointing fingers at every possible suspect.

*SLAM!*.. *CLICK¡*.

 Navi shuts his cabinet and clicks the padlock shut before using the bed ladder to his top bunk with plans of rest.

It would do him no God worrying about this right now especially without any solid leads.

 Little does Navi know that all the casual harmless events that have happened today one after the other today would snowball into something.. Explosive.
