39  Crew [ 2 ]

Man I did not want to drag into this, but it can't be helped.

For better understanding, you have to go on a flashback.

[Flashback

As the tension between Tony and the others escalated, Evelyn was about to take matters into her own hands.

She was determined to help her friends, Adrian and Emma, but before she could act, Lucas intervened.

He grabbed her wrist, preventing her from making a rash move that could alter the course of events.

"What are you doing, Evelyn?" Lucas questioned urgently. "You know that if you intervene, you'll also become a target."

Evelyn's eyes blazed with determination as she tried to free her wrist from Lucas's grip. "Let go of me, Lucas. They're my friends, and I can't just stand here doing nothing."

Lucas understood her concern, but he couldn't let her disrupt the carefully crafted narrative. As an author, he had a responsibility to ensure the story unfolded as planned.

"Evelyn, I know they're your friends," Lucas admitted, his voice tinged with frustration. "We don't know what we're dealing with here."

But she did not listen to him.

Evelyn's extraordinary strength allowed her to break free from Lucas's hold, and she shot an arrow infused with electric magic.

Lucas could do nothing as she was too fast for him to stop.

The resulting explosion drew more attention to the scene.

"Lyra ready for your healing."

"Already on it" she replied as Golden Hue suddenly wrapped her body, and she extended her hand ready to go anytime.

 She quickly signalled to Lyra, preparing her for the impending healing.

Lucas watched as Evelyn carried out her plan, torn between the desire to help her friends and the need to preserve the story's integrity.

As the chaos continued around them, he couldn't help but wonder how these unexpected events would impact their journey through the world of Nova Academy.

"We have two swordmen two archers and one healer," Adrian muttered as he gazed at all of us with eyes.

"Ok, Lucas and I will handle him. Emma you with Evelyn keep supporting us and protect Lyra as she is a healer."

"Ok, ok" both of them replied at the same time.

"And Lucas please support me from the side."

You bastard is this how you talk to your creator, maybe I should teach him some lesson,  like I did to Gorge.

"Do you understand Lucas?" he asked again but there was a Blue hue coming from his body.

"I understand" I replied some time late.

Look I'm not scared of him, I'm just trying to be perfect extra, trying to bend in surroundings.

But looks like I have miserably failed.

With determined expressions on their faces, Adrian, Lucas, Emma, Evelyn, and Lyra formed a circle, preparing for the upcoming confrontation with Tony Stark and the second-year students who had rallied to his side.

Tony, still radiating an air of arrogance, took a step forward, his mana-infused aura visible to those around him. He was not planning to hold back.

Adrian clenched his fists, his eyes locked onto Tony. "Let's do this," he said with determination.

Lucas, positioned beside Adrian, summoned his bow and notched an arrow, ready to provide support from a distance. He kept a keen eye on the surroundings, wary of any potential threats.

Emma, her magic at the ready, stood beside Evelyn. They were both prepared to provide cover and support for the frontline fighters. Emma's fingers crackled with electric energy.

Evelyn, her bow drawn and arrow aimed, shared a glance with Emma. Their teamwork had improved significantly over their time at Nova Academy, and they were ready to protect their friends.

Lyra, the healer, positioned herself behind the group, ready to assist if anyone was injured. She focused her mana to be prepared for any emergencies.

The second-year students surrounding Tony exchanged glances, some looking uneasy about the situation. Tony's arrogance, however, seemed to be enough to rally them for the impending fight.

Without further ado, the clash began. Tony, with a triumphant grin, charged forward, his greatsword held high. Adrian met his charge head-on, summoning his sword, their blades clashing with a resounding clash of metal.

Lucas, from the side, engages 3 second-year students, forcing them to take cover or divert their attention from the frontline battle.

Emma unleashed her electric magic, sending arcs of lightning crackling towards the students who dared to approach. Her aim was true, and her attacks created a barrier around the group.

Evelyn, with precision and speed, shot arrows at any opponent who tried to flank them, keeping a protective perimeter.

Lyra focused her healing magic, ready to mend any injuries Adrian or the others might sustain during the fight.

It was a chaotic battle, with magic and steel clashing, but our group fought with determination and coordination. They held their ground, protecting each other, and steadily wore down their opponents.

As the skirmish continued, it was clear that Tony had underestimated their teamwork and resolve. Slowly, but surely, they began to gain the upper hand.

The second-year students, faced with the unwavering determination of the first-years, started to falter. Some retreated, realizing the battle was not going in their favour.

"Stop it, what the hell is going on?"

Right after the shout, the pressure that was bearing down on everyone disappeared, and a tall individual whose skin was on the darker side appeared before the crowd.

His height surpasses the normal 8 feet, and many would wonder if he is even human or not

"Stop this farce at once!"

As the dust settled from the intense clash between Adrian, Tony, and their group of first-year students, a sudden presence appeared on the scene. It was none other than Instructor John Wilson, known as 'Destroyer' in the world of heroes, a formidable figure renowned for his immense strength.

John's imposing figure overshadowed the students, and his voice echoed with authority as he confronted both Adrian and Tony. His abrupt and forceful appearance startled everyone.

With a powerful punch delivered simultaneously to both Adrian and Tony's stomachs, the force of the blow sent Adrian staggering backwards. The impact of the punch was a testament to John's incredible strength.

Tony, on the other hand, was left in shock, unable to find the words to respond. He had known Instructor John for a long time and believed him to be an ally, possibly even planted by his family to support him during his time at the academy. This unexpected scolding left him bewildered.

Instructor John's face turned red as he berated Tony, and saliva sprayed from his mouth in his fervour. The shock of being scolded by someone he had considered an ally was more jarring than the scolding itself.

Finally, Instructor John ordered Tony to his office and turned his attention to the other first-year students, including Adrian and the rest of the group. His authoritative command left no room for argument.

"Come to my office right now!"

He turned his gaze at Adrian and all of the other first year.

"And all of you first year go to Miss Lilian's Office right now."

"Hey stop-" she could not say anything as the Instructor had already left.

Emma attempted to voice a complaint, but her words fell on deaf ears as Instructor John focused on the next course of action.

 He directed all the first-year students to Miss Lilian's office, leaving no room for further discussion.

Instructor John's sudden intervention had left the students stunned, and they hurriedly followed his orders, making their way to Miss Lilian's office, uncertain about the consequences of this unexpected turn of events.

"So who wins?" Adrian asks others.

'Nobody you idiot' Lucas thought to himself as watched Adrian's stupidity.
