Chapter 18 - Catch Me
Chester Brace
I've gathered everyone here today to discuss a matter of great importance.
Everyone was gathered inside of the main hall where Chester Brace stood at the top, explaining his concerns.
Chester Brace
I believe that a student or students under the pseudonym Polaris are creating havoc and chaos in my school.
Chester Brace
If anyone has any information as to who this individual or individuals are, please report to me for extra credit.
Chester Brace
You are all dismissed.
As Cal, Benny and I left the hall, we all smirked.
Cal Bentley
He's getting restless.
Benjamin Snowden
He's getting concerned, meaning our pranks are getting better and better.
Benjamin Snowden
There's no way he could sus out Miss Non-devil here, Mr I'm-always-late-to-class and me, the loned
Amy Angel
You aren't a loner anymore. You've got us.
Benjamin Snowden
Yeah... I guess so.
Amy Angel
Oh, Benny! Look!
I pointed at a poster which talked about the cultural trip to see fire sprites.
Benjamin Snowden
That's...
Cal Bentley
Oh, gosh. Not those creatures...
He seems quite bothered by them.
Amy Angel
What? You don't like fire sprites?
Benjamin Snowden
Oh yeah! I remember! One snuck into your bag last year and it caught on fire! All of your food was burnt up!
Cal Bentley
I was hungry after that... and all of the high-quality human blood was ruined...
He then looked at the poster, then at me.
Amy Angel
I've always wanted to see fire sprites. But if you guys are not up for it, it's fine. We can plan another prank!
Benjamin Snowden
I know! I got a crate of prank stuff from my older brother yesterday. Let's look through it and see what we can do!
As Benny and I walked along, Cal then froze and looked at the sign-up sheet. Sometimes he forgot how fleeting our time together was going to be.
Picking up his pen, he signed himself, Benny and I up.
And then sighed at himself for the softy he had become.
He imagined my beautiful smile when playing with the sprites.
And then, slowly, a smile appeared on his face.
Caspian Elysse
My, my, my... I could smell it from my room.
Caspian Elysse
Someone's in love.
Cal tensed and angrily turned around to meet Caspian.
Cal Bentley
What do you want?
Caspian Elysse
You've been quite close to Amy and Benjamin Snowden lately.
Caspian Elysse
What I'm saying is this. You'd better not try and associate yourself with lower beings than yourself.
Caspian Elysse
We are the heirs to the five noble families of the Devil Realm. If we don't uphold a certain standard, you'll be sure to be a laughing stock when you inherit your father's title.
And just like that, the flirtatious Caspian turned around, leaving Cal by himself, stranded.
He knew that his father would never approve of his choice in friends nor in his actions of pranking.
Yet... somehow, his father's recognition came below making Amy smile.
And just like that, he chuckled and turned around, walking towards our usual spot with his hands in his pockets.
