Leaving

[Dante Ahti]

He debated it. The thought raced through his head, making himself feel sick to the stomach.

Dante sat at his regular bench in the school's garden, gripping the book in his hand tightly. He had been told by the principal that his magic classes were done, and that they could not teach him anything else. The principal complained that the magic teachers had already been forced to find more work for him, and that that was going on for years.

So, he wasn't aloud to come to the school for magic anymore.

He could stay, and still try to continue his other courses. But the only reason why he did those courses was to make his sister proud. Dante was tempted to leave Avaleur, to go to another country and learn more magic.

There was nothing for him here anymore. So why stay?

He dropped the book onto the ground and ran both hands through his hair, then rested his face into his hands. He let out a shaky sigh.

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel sighed as she clung to her books tightly. Another rough day at school. On top of that, Dante was called out of class, so Denzel was stuck practising her magic alone....she ended up doing a spell completekly wrong, and messed up the whole classroom.

Carefully, she kicked the front door open and walked outside...where she would see a frustrated dante.

Denzel put her hand up and waved to him, shouting: "hey!! dante! where have you been?" she smiled slightly when she seen him.

[Dante Ahti]

Dante looked up, and half-heartedly smiled. "Hello, Denzel. I was speaking with the principal." He stood up, throwing his book into his bag and walked over to her.

[Denzel Kumori]

"oh..." she tilted her head and her smile faded. She didn't know why he was called to the office. all she knew was that Dante didn't do anything wrong o be called to the office. "while you were at the office, he missed seeing me mess up the whole classroom." she blushed, embarrassed. she scratched the back of her head and lowered her glance to the ground to hide her embarrassment though.

"why did they call you to the office?" she asked. it was a bit of an awkward subject.

[Dante Ahti]

"I'm sure the class doesnt look too bad!" Dante smiled, before frowning at her question.

"Oh. Well, you see, uhm...I'm...not aloud to study magic anymore." he stated, biting his lip. He looked at the school, and all the emotion of love for the school he once had faded away. All that was left was anger, and bitterness. Emotions he rarely felt.

[Denzel Kumori]

Sadness filled her eyes and she couldnt look at him. "oh....." she knew he would have to leave. she didnt know why she was so sad though.

[glow=red,2,300]'you love a bag of blood.'[/glow] the voice told her, muffling its laughter. Denzel imediatly blushed, and ignored the voice. 'no i dont...stupid monster...' denzel replied to the voice in her mind.

The voice was right...Denzel really liked him. but she never realized it... the thought and feeling was buried deep inside her.

"but....i just came to this school.....you cant leave yet..." a part of her hurt. as if it were shattering.

[Dante Ahti]

Dante ran a hand through his hair, shutting his eyes and sighing. "Well...It's just...I can continue studying here, in other classes, but I feel no need for them..."

"I...might leave Avaleur to learn more magic." he hastily said, biting his lip. He had made very good friends with many people over the past bit. He didnt know if he wanted to leave yet.

[Denzel Kumori]

"o-oh..." denzel stuttered slightly as she spoke. She didnt know what to do or say. It was a bit of a shock, and it made her really sad. "i...i think i forgot some thing in my locker." her eyes started to water as she walked back into the building. she wasnt really going to her locker...she was just going to exit from different door. Dante was going to leave, and denzel wanted to keep away from people to the best of her abilities. the voice was getting getting stronger, and she was getting weaker.

[Dante Ahti]

"Hey! Wait up!" Dante frowned, and ran up to behind his friend. He placed a hand on her shoulder to keep her from walking away. "I'm...sorry, if my yet to be made desicion is bothering you..." Dante stated, seeing the tears in her eyes. "If I do leave, I promise I'll come back."

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel wrapped her arms around him tightly, tears overflowing from her eyes. "it will never be the same though....you wont be you, and i wont be me...."

'You have already changed, you monster.' the voices words were burned into her mind. 'also...you do realize his neck is right there...right?'

Denzels eye twitched. She was dangerously close to Dante- and her left eye- well, it was now red. she was going to lose it soon....she was weak from hunger and emotion...plus the monster in her was driving her to insanity.

[Dante Ahti]

Dante hugged her back. "What do you mean? I'm sure that we'll both be the same. I'll just be famous, is all!" Dante chuckled. He was unaware of what was happening to Denzel.

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel began to shake as she back away from him. "dante...you never noticed...? You have to get away... im too weak! i cant keep control any longer..." Denzel looked at him. one of her eyes red, the other blue... her fangs were now showing.

[Dante Ahti]

He reached a hand out to the girl, before sighing. "I know you're stronger than this, Denzel." Dante muttered, sadness in his eyes. "I know what's been happening to you, somewhat at least...you can fight it."

[Denzel Kumori]

she put her hands on her head. She couldnt keep control, and fighting it would be very difficult. She has been fighting it for a long time now. "Run...."

[Dante Ahti]

"Denzel, hold it, you can do it..." He said, hands at his side. In his heart he knew that she could control the monster inside of her, somehow.

Dante stared at her for a moment, before sighing. In the book he stole from his sister, he had learned a spell to calm a beast within a person, whether it be a demon or vampire. It wouldnt last long, and it had major side effects on the user, but he would use it here if necessary.

"I know you can control it, Denzel." Dante said firmly. He wouldnt use the spell if he could help it.

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel bit her lip, and it began to bleed. she shook her head. "dont come looking for me, dante. If you do, ill... ill kill you!" she extended her wings, and sped off to somewhere that she hopefully wouldnt hurt anybody... She never realized that she was actually going in the most populated place in avaleur.

[Dante Ahti]

"...god dammit." Dante huffed, sliding down the wall of the school.

His stress level was now through the roof.
