Chapter Four - Grandmother
"What do you mean Maman Adeline is coming?" I asked my sister Amelie as we raced through the corridors and halls of the school after she'd come to get me because Grandmother was about to arrive. I was just on my way to class after lunch.
Our Grandmother made us to call her Maman Adeline, Maman being French for mother. She said it was because she had mother when she was fifteen, which is really young to be having a child. Now I was almost eighteen and she was fifty eight and still insisted that she was far too young to be called Grandmother. Basically, we had a Mother and a Maman. When my mother died, my sisters and I moved to live with her in San Francisco.
"I mean that she is on her way!" The bells started ringing, she looked sat me, "Correction, she is already here!" Amelie added as we arrived at the Dean's office. My other two sisters were already there, along with the Dean and a woman that looked no older than Professor Will, she had long blonde hair and her eyes were of a greyish green.
Moments later the door opened and a man walked in announcing our Grandmother. "Her majesty Adeline De Lumiere. Queen of Ferim's court. Empress of the Infinite Islands. Ambassador of the Great Alliance. Bearer of the angel's light and Princess of the Celestial Court." The man said in a strong, loud voice. Then he moved to the side and my Grandmother came in followed by a small entourage.
Interestingly the entourage included Gert and Oscar. They worked at my Grandmother's jewelry store, but now I realized that all of that was a lie. Oscar and Gert had lied to me. Was there anyone in my life that didn't lie?
"Your Majesty." The Dean said and bowed his head. The girl that was by his side also curtsied and my sisters did the same. I stood there looking on in shock.
A middle aged man that came in with my Grandmother stared at me and said, "Show respect for your queen young man!"
That brought me out of my shock and I was going to bow, but my Maman stopped me and said, "Duke Lyon, leave the kid alone and go. I need to have a private talk with MY family." The man protested, but she glared at him and he left, followed by almost everyone else except Gert and Oscar who stayed in the room. "Elion my dear. I have not seen you in such a long time." My Maman added now in a loving tone.
"Adeline, my darling." Elion kissed my Maman's hand and she giggled. My Grandmother giggled. REALLY MAMAN!
"Luzeiza, child, you are all grown up. Why the last time I saw you, you must have been 16 years old. How old are you now?" Maman asked the blonde girl.
"I'm twenty five your majesty." Oh, I know who she is now! She's Dean Ashwood's daughter. She also has a brother in the fifth year.
"Oh child, call me Adeline." Maman added, but the girl went full on red, "Aright call me Mrs. De Lumiere. Are you more comfortable with that?" The girl nodded.
Maman looked at us, "Come my children. Come greet your Maman." My sisters hugged her, but I stayed behind. My sisters moved and Maman looked at me, "Nicky?" I ran. I ran. I ran to her and hugged her for all I was worth. She smelt like magnolias and sea, the same smell that I remember from the day of the accident when I was on the hospital. The same smell that comforted me and my sisters when our father died. My sisters were the daughters of another man, but father raised them from when they were one, he always treated them as his own. So, to them he was their father.
"I have missed you Maman." I whispered in her ear.
"You saw me only four days ago child." She said low enough for only me to hear.
"Yes...well the last three days had been hell. I swear I wouldn't keep a secret being accepted here if I would have known all the trouble this brought"
"I know." She stroked my cheek as we broke the hug and then she softly slapped me. "That will be the last time you hide anything so important from me. Is that clear?" She glared at me and I nodded.
"Well you kept magic as a secret for me" I said, But she looked hard at me
"You know it was for your own good" She said and I nodded then she added "Even worse, these two little children that I thought worked for me kept your secret." She said pointing to Oscar and Gert.
"We stand by our responsibility. Nicky is our friend and it would have been treason to reveal a secret that wasn't ours to reveal your majesty." Oscar said, smiling at me. I was a little mad at them for keepeing magic from me but now I was realizing, it wasn't their decision.
My Maman let out a simple, "Ha! Any other monarch would you flogged for this...but I am a good person." She then went and slapped Oscar and Gert's head. "Next time it will be two slaps. Do not tell anyone, especially Duke Lyon as he already says that I am far too soft with my children. Even though you may not be my family, I have known you since you were ten years old. It is impossible to know someone that long and for them not touch your heart." She added. The slap could not have been that hard because Oscar smiled.
"Thank-you your majesty." Smiled Gert.
"Now, let's get to the point shall we. Why, am I here?" Asked my Maman sitting down on Dean Ashwood's chair.
He then called the secretary by the telephone and said "Ask him to come in please. Oh and bring tea and cookies for everyone." Seconds later the door opened and Professor Smith came in. He bowed his head to my Grandmother.
"Your majesty it is an honor to meet you." He said nervously.
"Oh dear, cut to the chase why did you ask me come?" The Queen said. She might have been my Maman, but at the moment she was the Queen. She was always a respectful and strong woman that everybody liked and respected in return, but it was so weird to see her now as a queen
"The problem is your majesty. Your Grandson either cheated, or he has far too many powers and abilities." He said and then he added as he looked at me, "Not that I am calling your highness a liar." Like hell he wasn't.
"Well played." My Grandmother the Queen said amused. "What was the result of the ceremony?" She asked looking at me.
I looked at her and said, "Oculus, Electrum, Elementum, Corpus, Metamorphia, Levita, Clairvoyance, Transport, Cronus, Lingua, Arboriloquentia, Catarsis, Mandate and Presence and Telepathy." I said repeating the words from yesterday. She looked shocked.
" Do not forget Telekinesis." Insisted Professor Smith.
"Yes AND Telekinesis, but I don't know what all these words mean. Remember until recently all this magic was hidden from me!" Everyone gasped and Gert and Oscar looked at the floor. Everybody looked at Dean Ashwood.
"Nikolas we know you are in a difficult position with everything being new, these are abilities that every magical being can be born with. They are set apart from magic, because they are magic. Doing these powers without magic is nearly impossible. Those words are the names the abilities or powers are known by. The most common being Telekinesis, Elementum, Levita, Corpus and Clairvoyance.
"Elementum is the ability to control the elements; fire, water, earth and air. Sometimes a person will control just one element, whilst others will be able to control more. Levita is the ability to fly. Corpus means that you can change your bodily characteristics; you can turn invisible or intangible. Telekinesis you know that is the control of matter with your mind. Finally, Clairvoyance lets you see the future and also the past so that you can understand the future.
"Now we have the rare ones; Oculus, Electrum, Metamorphia, Transport, Cronus, Lingua, Arboriloquentia, Catarsis, Mandate & Presence and Telepathy. Oculus enables your eyes to see what others cannot. To enable you to see hidden things, like the real form of a being and their energy or life force. You can see things that are far away and with practice you can see almost microscopic things.
"Electrum is the control over electricity. Metamorphia is the ability to change the appearance of your body." Said the Dean turning into me. "It is hard to control, too hard and it is kind of illegal to do." Then he changed into himself again, the look on my face must have been one of horror and shock because Ame put her hand around my shoulder.
"Transport is when you can travel between places in this realm. Cronus enables you to control time, to stop it or accelerate it. Never go back, once you go back you can never come back to this reality because the future is always changing. Say you go back to yesterday and say stay there until a day has passed. If you did that then this moment would never have happened." Luzeiza had taken over from her father, "Lingua gives you the ability to talk in every language of every species in the world.
"You already know what Arboriloquentia is. The ability to talk with talking trees and to feel the very primitive feelings of lower plants. Catharsis, the easiest way to explain it is to think of it as a reset button. A reset button that purifies your soul of all evil and tragedy. You may only use it once. Telepathy is an easy one to understand thanks to X-Men." She said with a smile.
Maman smiled, "The rarest one is Mandate & Presence, they come as one ability that fate gives to those destined to be Kings and Queens. It allows them to go inside their subject's minds. It allows them to see, hear and feel through that person. To talk and act like that person. It is like a kind of mind control and maybe, just maybe you can control more than one." Explained my Grandmother. "Now as a De Lumiere you have Lumus the ability to Lighten the way and produce light. You also have Freeway which means any door that you want open is opened to you. Even the ones locked by magic. Lumus is in our blood, and Freeway is one of the perks of being royal."
"Wow! So I have all those gifts." I said.
"They aren't gifts. They come separated from magic because they are magic themselves. Beware though magic comes at a price." Said Maman, "Magic comes with greatness and light. Magic also comes with suffering, pain, loss and darkness. So use it wisely for even small spells have a cost. The biggest ones, the more powerful spells bring bad things. For example..." She then looked at Dean Ashwood. I looked at him and he was seated holding his head.
"That...little morph into you...caused...pain." He winced.
"Oh and now you have to eat and sleep more. Magic uses energy. When the energy is depleted it will begin to use your very life force." Added Maman, putting on her best motherly face.
"Ok, I will. So which ability did I use yesterday?" I asked and everybody looked worried.
"That wasn't any magical ability Nicky. What you did yesterday is called an Aether wave. That is the ability to move Aether. Now just so you understand, Aether was a present from the Angels to the Elves. Elves created Fairies with it. The ability to do Aether waves is reserved for Elves, Angels or High Fairies. So I assume someone in your family was one of those. Though Elves went into seclusion almost a century ago and Angels locked themselves in the crystal city in 1500 AC. The only High Fairy alive now is Asleena, Titania's daughter the current Faerie Queen." Explained Dean Ashwood as he was feeling better.
"I saw your father do a wave once before, but I never told anyone because if the ability comes back it is a bad sign. Too much celestial blood in your bloodline makes you a target of celestial hunters, or worse. Evil." Maman finished and the door opened as a server brought a tray with tea and cookies. She smiled, "Finally!" Added my Grandmother as everyone laughed.
It was suddenly like we weren't discussing an important matter just seconds ago. Amelie touched me and whispered "Fake...no one can know Nicky." So I put on my best fake smile that, modesty apart, it was a very good one.
After we had talked for a while Maman had to go back to San Francisco. So everybody said their goodbyes and minutes later I was watching her carriage as it got smaller and smaller in the distance. I still had a class to go to so I decided to attend to get a little distraction. This was a huge error because it was Divination and I fell asleep the moment the Professor started talking.
It was Friday night and I was returning to my room after I showered. Now that everybody knew I had a prosthetic leg I showered at the same time as everybody else. They had installed a handicapped shower and toilet just for me, but other people used it too so I wasn't too ashamed.
Today I took a fast shower because I had some homework to do. Everyone in the room was away doing some thing or another. I arrived at the room, but something caught my attention. I heard a moan coming from inside so I knelt and looked through the keyhole. There was Alexander in all his glory getting his dick sucked by another guy.
Alexander's cock was long and thick, it looked to be about nine inches long. The other guy was having a little trouble swallowing it whole. He was thrusting his hips up and down, trying to get more inside the other guy's mouth. Alexander was completely naked. His body was covered in sweat. That made all his defined muscles to look even better. Faster that I wanted him to, Alexander thrust up and shoved all he could deep into the other's mouth. At the same time, he bit down on to the pillow he was holding to muffle his own groans.
"That was great, just like it always is Lance." Laughed Alexander. "I see as like always you swallowed. You're a greedy cocksucker, you want me to suck you now?"
"No, I'm good." Then the guy looked in my direction and started walking to the door. I moved right, but fell to the floor and closed my eyes. Yeah I know with your eyes closed you can't be seen. I am a blinking genius! The thing was though that when the guy opened the door and I looked at him he couldn't see me. "Alexander, someone in your room have Corpus and can turn invisible?"
"Yeah, but he doesn't know how to use it." Answered Alexander
"Ok it must have been the wind or something." The boy closing the door. I looked at my hands and they weren't there. I stood up and went back to the bathroom. Once there I became visible. The only thing that I could think to say was "Sweet!" Hey don't judge me, I am a normal teenager, well not that normal! Don't we all want to be invisible sometimes.
I looked at my cock it was rock hard and I realized it wasn't going to go until I looked after it. So I got back in the handicapped shower and jack off quickly.
When I got back to the room the other guy was leaving. He looked at me and kept walking. I entered the room. Alexander was smoking a cigarette
sitting at the window. He had shorts on, but was shirtless, and covered in sweat.
"I took one of yours. I hope you don't mind." He said. I grabbed a cigarette too. I know what you're thinking, smoking is bad and I am giving my money to the tobacco companies. Well I have the perfect answer to that...I smoke because I want to.
"No problem. Who was that?"
"A friend of mine." He was looking out the window.
"Why are you so sweaty?" I asked trying to get him talking.
"What are you the sweat police? I was doing some exercises in the school gym." He said looking at me. I wanted to add, `...and getting your dick sucked was an exercise.' Trouble was, I wanted to do it, too.
"Easy...I am just curious." I defended myself finishing my cigarette. I added, "I'm going to do spellcasting and botany homework."
"I'm going to shower real fast and come back, wait for me. I'm good in botany, but need help in spellcasting if you are willing." He added. I forgot to tell you, I cast my first spell in class the other day. It was an easy one, but Alexander didn't find it so easy.
"Okay." After that he went to shower and came back five minutes later. We did the homework and the rest of the guys arrived, eventually. My relationship with MJ wasn't good, but it wasn't that bad. He usually avoided me and I did the same to him. The rest of the group said it was my decision to exclude him or not. I said it was Ok the way it was. After all they were friends with him.
John growled, "If I were you, he'd be so dead by now."
Saturday morning, we had one class and then something called joined training. At ten o'clock there were two classes in the forest, and the Professor said "Today we'll have the first joined training session. It will be sort of a game of capture the flag between the two classes."
The game was fast I got to hide the flag and Alastor was defense, Syrena and Theo were diversion, the fairies were scouts and John and the other guys were offense, they all wanted to prove their masculinity. I was fine with mine so I hid the flag between two rocks. Just that a guy from the other team found it. Alastor retrieved it before he knew what was happening.
After that the group was at the dining hall eating lunch. The shapeshifters ate three times what a normal person would eat. When a guy walked to us, it was the guy who had been sucking Alex's cock the night before.
"Hi Lancelot. How are you?" Asked Theo with a grin, "You disappeared last night."
"Hi Theo. I was with some friends and remember no one calls me Lancelot. The guy glared nervously at me as I saw him yesterday leaving my room so I could rat on him.
"What friends?" Pushed Theo.
"I...I..." Lance started.
I couldn't leave him hanging so I helped the poor guy out. "He was with Alex. Alex was doing some exercises with him." I added. Alex looked at me as if saying, `You know that I wasn't exercising, thanks!'
"Yes. I'm friends with Alex and I was talking with him because I want to build up my muscle a little."
"So Alexander was doing exercises?" They asked me. "You know that vampires can tell when you lie."
"Yes, I saw him exercising" I said, Alexander looked at me. "Why do you ask so much?" I asked faking being defensive.
"Well he is my little brother. So, I can ask whatever I want." Theo defended himself.
"Little brother?" I asked in confusion, we were all first year.
Lance saw a way out and added, "Yes, two months younger."
I stared at Theo, "Hey two months are two months. I am still the oldest." Theo added, as everyone began to laugh.
I looked at Alexander and Lance, they were looking at me. Almost an hour later everybody went to do something and Alex and Lance stayed to speak with me. "Thanks for the saving us!" said Alexander
"You're welcome. Next time hide it a little better. Try not to do 'drugs' in the room anymore." I said. Alexander looked confused, but Lancelot whispered into his ear what 'drugs' meant.
"Oh, yes." Alex smiled.
"Alex I didn't know you were a 'drug addict'." I said.
He thought for a few seconds, "No, I am not. I just enjoy 'drugs' sometimes". He explained.
"Thanks for helping me with my brother in hiding the 'drugs'." Added Lance. After that they left and a little light appeared from under the table and transformed into MJ.
"That was the most stupid thing I have ever heard! Drugs. Seriously, I thought you were intelligent." MJ said.
"Shut up you asshole. You still owe me."
"I think I paid enough with that slap you gave me." He said.
"Oh, you don't know how I wish I had slapped you harder." I said.
"Harder!!! That's impossible. The slap hurt for two days and my ears rang until yesterday."
"I'm not that strong!"
"Yes you are. You are stronger and faster than a normal human being now, he explained. I suddenly realized it was true.
"Shut up asshole!" I said and left.
I went out to one of the yards to read. I loved reading. Last week I read Some place called freedom' by Ken Follett. Now I was reading The strange and beautiful sorrows of Ava Lavender' by Leslie Walton. I was loving it so far. I had been reading for a while when someone interrupted me.
"The ending is awesome. You'll love it." John said as he sat beside me.
"Hi, JOHN." I shouted as seeing this guy made me nervous. One look at him and I became a quivering wreck.
"Why are you shouting?" He seemed amused.
"Sorry. What are you doing here?"
"I came to read." He said quietly.
"Oh you don't look like a reader." As soon as I said it I regretted it because at that moment I saw his face drop.
"Yeah, because wolf shapeshifters are supposed to be stupid and brutes." He said almost growling. "Let me tell you something, not all of us are like that." He stood up and I did the same.
I looked at him, "Please, forgive me. That's not what I meant. I'm really sorry." He looked at me and calmed down.
"No, I'm the one that needs to say sorry. You know father forbids me to read. At home I have to hide to read." He sat and put on a pair of glasses.
"You look weird with glasses on." I said, but the reality was that he looked super sexy.
"Let this be our secret...Okay?" He asked and shot me one of his smiles. You know those smiles that take your breath away, make your dick hard, your ass twitch and your heart stop. He bit his lower lip and god it made him even sexier.
"Okay." I managed to say, my throat was dry. I laid down again and started reading. He did the same. Sometime while we were reading he moved and his shoulder to touched mine, but he didn't move away. He was comfortable like that...so was I.
Sometime later I stopped reading, it was 2:54 pm. He sat up and took out a bag of chips and two cokes I sat up with him. He said, "I love this place. It's so peaceful and quiet." We were in a garden at the other side of the main building. He gave me a coke and opened the bag of chips. We ate them as we talked.
It was getting dark when I looked at my watch...Gosh it was already seven o'clock! We had been talking for four hours nonstop. I was going to say something when my phone rang. It was Alexander.
ALEX: Nick, come quickly. If you see Johnathan along the way bring him with you. It's an emergency.
John was looking at me as if to say `What the hell's wrong?'.
I looked at him, "Let's go, something bad has happened." Is all I said, before we grabbed all of our things and ran as fast as we could. It was good that I had kept my athletic leg on. We arrived at the room ten minutes later. We opened the door and Alexander was dressing.
"Oh, good..." He said, "...go take a shower. We're going out." I looked and smiled.it wasn't a joyful smile, it was a I am going To kill you smile.
"What do you mean by out?" John seemed a little upset.
"Like to a party. The fastest way to make you come back to the room was by faking an emergency." Alex laughed "Both of you were MIA. Sorry." John looked at me and started laughing.
I was a little mad, but then I grabbed my things and went to take a shower. I was certainly in the mood for a party and booze. I was sure that we could find a way to smuggle a drink or something back in.
That's all for now folks ... This is Chapter four – Chapter five will follow soon.
