My Angel system

George had many thoughts running through his mind about what could have possibly happened to Rodney.

He had been told by Brolin and Brad that they shot an arrow each into his stomach before leaving and yet the person who had that arrow in his body a few hours ago was standing at the other side of the arena and looked perfectly okay while Rodney seemed to be missing.

George was the first to break eye contact as he turned to Brolin and grabbed him on his shoulder.

"Isn\'t that the boy you shot an arrow into his stomach?" He asked pointing towards Luis.

Brolin followed his hands and so did Brad, they just couldn\'t bring themselves to believe it.

"Answer me," George said with a chilling voice.

"It is him," Brolin replied.

"But how?" Brad said.

"What really happened back there?" George asked.

Jacob was still there but none of the things they were saying made sense to him and he was trying really hard to understand something here.

"We had those arrows in his stomach before Rodney asked us to leave," Brolin said.

"Then why is he standing over there looking okay and Rodney\'s nowhere to be found?"

"He must have done something to Rodney," Brad said in realization.

Luis didn\'t need to rack his brain to know why George had stared at him like that, he knew he was behind everything.

\'I just hope you find your friend before something bad really happens to him.\' Luis thought.

\'Let\'s just hope what you\'re thinking hasn\'t happened yet.\'

The second round of the competition currently going on meant that the first-year students had nothing to do besides watching the fights between the second-year students.

Ace had used the opportunity to go and meet up with his roommates but he was surprised to see only Luis when he got closer to the martial arts students.

"Hi, Luis." Ace said after stopping behind him.

"Oh hi, Ace," Luis said quickly, turning to face him.

"Martial arts students." Ace said looking at the rest of the martial arts students who had their gaze on the screen. "You guys are literally the best class in the competition so far."

Ace didn\'t try to hide his admiration for the martial arts students.

"Hey, you\'re that wind user right?" Monica asked. "The one that beat Henry."

Monica quickly grabbed Henry\'s hands and turned him around for Ace to see his face.

"Yeah." Ace said.

Henry didn\'t want anything to do with their conversation as he grumbled and turned back to the screen, he still hadn\'t gotten over his defeat yet.

"He\'s really not happy about losing to you," Monica said.

\'What do I even need to say here? Sorry for beating you.\' Ace thought. That sounded really awkward in his mind. \'And he\'s the only martial arts student that got knocked out in this round.\'

"Hey Henry, just so you know you did okay in that fight." Ace said but there was no response from Henry.

"Is Ace your friend Luis?" Monica asked.

Luis was slow to reply to that question and Ace just had to do it himself.

"Yeah, and we are also roommates." Ace said.

"Ok, I\'m Monica Smith from the first year class A," Monica said offering him a handshake.

"You have an awesome metal ability." Ace said, taking her hand.

"Thanks," Monica said.

"So where\'s Dylan, Luis?" Ace asked.

"That\'s right, where is Dylan?" Monica asked, looking around.

"Dylan," Luis said as Ella slowly turned to him.

Michael and Nicole had made their way out of the arena and were currently heading to the clinic where they wanted to get the information that would aid them in the case of the fire user on a rampage.

The clinic wasn\'t far from the arena and it didn\'t take them long to get there.

They entered the clinic to see that there was no one in the reception area due to how busy Serene was today with attending to all the hurt students.

"There must be a lot of students there," Michael said.

"Why?" Nicole asked.

"Because a lot of students got hurt," Michael said. "I knew you were just pretending to watch those fights."

He made his way to the other room as Nicole followed behind him and he opened the door to find Nicole standing in front of the screen in the room while John was sitting beside her.

"Serene," Nicole called on entering the room.

"Oh, you\'re here," Serene said after turning and seeing the two visitors she had.

The first thing Michael did on entering the room was to count the number of students there and he was able to count seven students but he knew the rumpled beds meant some of the students had left.

"Where\'s the student?" Nicole asked.

"Over here," Serene said walking to the corner of the room where Rodney was lying on his bed staring at the ceiling.

He quickly turned his gaze after noticing Serene approaching him with two other people.

"Take off the bandages," Nicole said.

"I don\'t think that\'s a good idea," Serene said.

"Why?" Nicole asked.

"Taking them off now will be quite painful to him," Serene said.

"But we have to see his face for investigation purposes and if the pain is too unbearable for him, you can use your healing ability to take it away," Nicole said.

"Ok," Serene said as she got closer to Rodney and began to take the bandages off.

There were little winces and groans from the third-year student as she took the bandages off, Rodney was trying really hard not to give an impression of him being weak.

By the time Serene had removed all the bandages, his breathing had become a little paced and he was moving his face while gritting his teeth.

"That is a very bad burn," Michael said.

Nicole didn\'t say anything as she just stared at Rodney\'s red face.

"Cases like this should be taken care of with your healing ability Serene," Nicole said, almost bursting out on her.

"Yeah, but if I had done that you wouldn\'t have known how serious this case was," Serene said.

"She has a point," Michael said as he walked closer to Rodney.

He asked him the same questions Serene had asked him earlier today but the only response he got from the third-year student was his breathing which was a result of him trying to endure the pain he was feeling.

"We\'ve seen what we wanted to see, I think it\'s time to heal him now," Michael said.

"Ok," Serene said as she turned to the third-year student and slowly placed her hands on his face.

Her hands suddenly received a bright white glow which was slowly transferred to Rodney\'s face.

The bright began to spread throughout Rodney\'s face as his flesh could be seen slowly returning to his face.

The third-year student\'s breathing began to return to normal as the glow spread throughout his face.

Serene waited for a while after the glow had spread to every part of his face before pulling her hands away from his face.

The glow in his face slowly faded away to reveal his face, it was still a bit red but at least he had flesh on his face now and was breathing properly now.

Michael asked him the same question again and this time he got a reply, the same reply he had given Serene.

"And you didn\'t see the face of this fire user?" Michael asked.

"His flames had covered my face before I could even take a look at his face." He said.

"Ok, but do you have some sort of enemy, someone trying to get back at you for something?" Michael asked.

"I don\'t think so," Rodney said, waving his head.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah,"

Michael stared at him for a while before he turned and began to walk towards the door.

"Let\'s go, Nick."

"You know you didn\'t really get any useful information out of him," Nicole said as they walked towards the exit.

"I know but let\'s check out the scene first," Michael said.

The two had stopped outside the clinic as Michael began to tap his watch and it was at that moment that Nicole noticed something she didn\'t notice when they were coming to the clinic, maybe because they weren\'t looking in that direction.

"Why does that tree have red leaves?" She asked pointing at the tree opposite the clinic which had dark red leaves and a slightly red stem.

"What, you haven\'t seen a tree with red leaves before?" Michael asked after raising his gaze a little to look at the tree before turning it back to his watch.

"Yeah but it\'s not usually this red," Nicole said.

"Come on Nicole, we have an investigation to do," Michael said as he grabbed her by her arm and the two got covered by white light.
