That morning in class Aveline was sitting next to her partner and looked the most relaxed in the class. Her face was happy, she was smiling in her corner. Why not smile? At last one of those goals had been accomplished.
She was thinking back to the events that had happened outside her door earlier:
"I'm not sure what happened to her. I'll be your wingman if you do me a little favor " said Aveline with a dark smile.
"What kind? " Questioned the visitor, although he knew his intentions.
Aveline looked in the direction of the Brylianes and left the room. She stopped in front of them like a hero standing alone in front of a horde of villains and then turned her head back slightly:
"In a team we cover each other" The visitor remained perplexed and watched the young woman.
He knew what she was getting at, so he closed the door and stood just behind Aveline.
" Bryliane! I haven't forgotten what you did to me," began Aveline, "I'm sure you've come to make sure I won't tell anyone what you did. Very well, but I'm not going to stop myself against the part where I made you bite the dust. This will be the beginning of my great revenge and you'll have a front-row seat."
"What part did you bite us in, your dust? " Asked one of the Brylians.
Right now. Aveline replied, looking sure.
"Uh, girls, I think we're going to find out what happens when you merge a wizard without a stick and a zero" Sneered the male Bryliane.
" I don't associate with the weak. If you want to team up with me prove to me that you have potential ",whisper Aveline in her visitor's ear while gently backing away.The visitor stepped forward looking bored.
He stood alone against three. He represented calm, his gaze was empty, his face was fixed on a spot along the corridor wall.Look at this one, we'll show him what we're capable of.Real estate. Ice noises.
The Brylianes were buried in ice tombs which were confined to their throats: Aveline kept her mouth open, she was not surprised, but the way in which her visitor had frozen his opponents remained mysterious. She had heard him say just a few words and the snow had grown around the opponents. »
"Aveline! Miss Aveline, you're with us ? " Said the professor to get her out of her daydreams.
Aveline woke up from her dream with a start, she turned around and discovered the teacher's face which was almost glued to hers. The class was staring at her, her morning visitor was standing next to her, looking as selfless as ever:
"Sorry, ma'am. I was studying." She let it out of her mouth, not knowing what else to say.
" Studying ? " Then tell me what I was talking about the last few minutes.
Aveline looked the teacher straight in the eye. She concentrated on trying to remember something but her mind was totally stuck in the events of the morning. The class was staring at her, she knew he wouldn't miss the slightest opportunity.
Strangely, Aveline's lips were moving by themselves, she let the words come out of her mouth at a speed similar to that of a programmed robot quickly reciting its algorithm:
"Earlier you were talking about different types of magic. First you mentioned protective mages, magic to heal others, then you talked about fighting mages, mages who fight without sticks but with swords like the warrior class and then you ended with the forbidden magic class. You said that we shouldn't use it because this magic destroys the user and also the victims: it's the magic of death. "
The teacher, the class and even Aveline was amazed:
"So that's it, they can say that you made a summary. Everything is said correctly, begin the teacher, I expected less from my friend," the teacher said, leaving a smile on her face.
Aveline did the same, after all Miss Laura was her favourite teacher and since her first year she and her teacher had promised to do everything to be the strongest magician at school. Her pretty face, her long curly hair and her angelic mood were the only things Aveline lacked when she was confined to her room.
A headache made Aveline's sight blurred for a moment. The pain was getting worse and worse, her head wanted to explode.
"Everything was fine this morning, what's happening to me," Aveline wondered.
The pain was getting worse and worse. A pain she could almost compare to four years ago."Ma'am, can I retire for a short while," she asked, holding her head against her table.
"Is everything all right, Aveline? You can come out, I'll see you in two minutes." Miss Laura answered.
Aveline ran out of the room until she reached the toilets, there she hurriedly lifted the lid of a toilet and vomited at the top of her mouth.
"What's happening to me?" the young woman wondered as she began to revisit the memories of her first year as a patient."No no, I don't want to, you can't take it back."
Aveline screamed as she stood up and broke the mirror in the room.There she stayed, her eyes plunging into the mirror, and an intriguing detail came to light: Her eyes were blood red.
"No, no, what happens to me at the end?"The young woman plunged her head into the washbasin and filled it with water, after a minute underwater she took her head out and fixed herself again in the mirror.
Her eyes, they were normal again. Her pain, it was beginning to disappear.After she was sure that the pain had completely disappeared, Aveline made herself beautiful again by tidying her hair on the sides. A minute later she opened the toilet door to go out.
"So, how are you?" A voice she recognised was heard.
"You!" She said coldly as she stared at the person.
