Chapter 3 – Hidden Threats

Emma walked, somewhat in a daze, to the King’s Room for the dreaded 2 hours of homework with all the other endowed children. Her thoughts were so deep, that she didn’t hear the repeated calls to her all the way from her classroom to the King’s Room. As she climbed the last set of stairs before entering the King’s Room, the voice which had been calling to her, suddenly became clear.
Emma, startled, whirled around and almost fell down the stairs in shock. Her eyes widened as she realised who had called her (and had been for a long time).
‘T-Tancred!’ she cried, stuttering slightly.
The spiky haired storm bringer grinned. He tried to rush up the stairs to catch up to Em…and tripped on the steps. Emma giggled before delicately walking down to help him.
‘You should pay more attention’ she said laughing quietly. He watched her as she picked up his pens that had scattered all over.
‘So should you’ he replied. Emma looked up, confused, and their eyes locked and both stayed staring at each others eyes until one shrill annoyed voice broke through their trance.
‘EMMA TOLLY!!!’ Emma squeaked and almost fell down the stairs. She glanced up and her eyes widened at the sight of the blond fangirl standing at the bottom of the stairs.
The fangirl leader smiled, but Emma knew what it meant. Emma was in trouble, deep trouble.
‘Just wanted to talk to you, but I guess I’ll tell you later’ she said, her voice travelling all the way to Emma. Emma, too scared to talk, nodded slowly. The meaning of her words meant something that only Emma would understand. Emma didn’t want to know what her punishment was.
Tancred watched the two girls in slight amusement. One was smiling pleasantly, yet somewhat evilly, while the other was silent and had complete fear in her eyes. Emma was trying not to show her fear, but she was trembling violently. Tancred put a hand on her shoulder and said to the fangirl leader, ‘Sorry, but we have to go do our homework now. See you later.’ With that he pretty much marched Emma to the King’s room, and, ignoring Manfred’s ‘You’re late’, he sat down and smiled at Emma.
The bird-girl was still shocked and somewhat scared, but tried to smile back as pleasantly as possible to her one and only crush. As she turned to her homework, she realised that she wasn’t going to get ANY done.
After the homework period with the endowed, Emma walked tiredly back to her dorm. When she reached there, she found that her usual bed had been taken, and another girl explained that she had been moved. Emma sighed and, finding her new room, dragged her bag and all her books there.
As she unpacked her things, Dannielle walked in. As Emma’s eyes grew wide at the co-incidence, Dannielle just had pure fear in her eyes.
‘Wh-Why are you here?’ she asked, her voice trembling. Emma was confused.
‘I – my original dorm is full and I was told to move into here’ replied Emma.
‘N-no, no!’ screamed Dannielle. Emma was surprised as Dannielle pushed her out of the room.
‘D-Dannielle! Wait!’ cried Emma, shocked and scared at the same time. Dannielle had changed so suddenly, it scared her.
Dannielle stopped pushing her. Her fringe was in her eyes and she seemed to be thinking.
‘You…you don’t understand,’ Dannielle’s voice sounded like she was remembering horrible memories. ‘You don’t want to come in this dorm. I’ve stayed in here since I came…each day is a living hell for me. I would rather sleep in the cold than stay in here. Go into another dorm. Now!’
‘Wha-?‘ but before Emma could finish, the reason for Dannielle’s nightmares appeared. Emma didn’t understand what Dannielle meant before, but now she did.
Emma was now in the same dorm as the fangirl leader and many of the fangirls.
