The Creation of all things(The Arrival) Chapter 3.

Mike clenches fist and begins gritting his teeth. Then he turns and punches the wall. "Who gave them the right to end so many lives! I swear I will end their group myself!" The teen exclaims.

Andrii was glad that he had made it home safetly. He helped prop Zane up on the wall and made sure he was ok. He heard what Mike and Zane said, but unlike them he wasn't angry he was concerned. Sofia and Celeste were still in the Nursing room. He had to check on them. He slipped past Zane and Mike and headed for them.

Mike normally would make a joke in this tense situation but all he can think about how he failed to save so many people. Mike barely noticing Zane's question just grunts and rests his hand on his set of stitches. "Nothing too bad, I'll be ready if those bastards come back." Mike then looks towards Andrii and back at Zane. "He doesn't seem to affected by any of this, must be because his missed most of the fighting.

Andrii made it back to the room with Celeste and Sofia as well as a bunch of other people, He glances over at the still sleeping Sofia and then walks towards Celeste. "Hey, are you ok? Luckily we didn't get into any scrapes back there, Zane's back and he's gonna be alright. I still have no Idea what happened and why it happened, but I saw the two of them when Mike defeated them and the mess they'd left behind.. I wonder how they did it." Andrii shook his head, this was the first time he'd stopped to think about the events rather than the safety of others. He thought back to his first day here just 5 days ago, how times quickly changed. He handed Celeste back her Aromage - Rosemary. "Thank you very much Celeste."

Sofia wakes up to find herself in the Nurses Room, tucked into a bed. "Wha-?" She says drearily, rubbing her eyes and attempting to neaten her hair in one move. She sits up and looks to the bed next to her to see a random Obelisk Blue student there. "Mike?!" She suddenly remembers what had happened and that perilous moment where she was face to face with that evil tar covered skeletal creature. A shiver went down her spine. She shot up and looked over at Andrii, who was in the middle of talking to an Obelisk Blue student. Not someone she'd spoken to before. And decided to leave the room, immediately bumping into Zane and Mike. She noticed their scars, stitches and bruises. "Oh my goodness, amigos. friends. what is going on?!"

Sofia was shocked at the reactions of both the Chancellor and Zane. This was serious, Luckily she was well rested and was one of the few that weren't hurt. She still had her duel disk on. "I may not have one of these special cards that these creeps are looking for, but I have a deck, and I have a heart. Next time i'll be ready" she glanced at the boys "we'll all be ready."

Mike nods towards the Chancellor then sets his eyes towards Sofia. Mike solemnly asks. "Are you o.k.?" Finding it hard to muster any of his usual joy.

"Si, yes. oh god yes, but are you?! That was quite an adventure we had!" She says passionately trying to put a little bit of life back into Mike. She examines Mike's stitches. "Michael.. You need to get these redone my friend, you have ripped them all out!" She says slapping him in his arm.

Ryan walks in with Mike and everyone else around him.

"Ouch what was that for?" Mike complains as he starts rubbing his arm. Mike then looked down at his stitches they were indeed falling out and need to be restitched. He probably shouldn't have gotten out bed until he healed properly but he doesn't care.

Mike then notices Zane storming out. Mike hopeless holds out his hand to his friend. But puts his hand down as his friend leaves the room. "Damn it. I need to be stronger."

Sofia, glanced as Zane walked away. He seemed a lone wolf at heart, but that heart seemed broken. She felt for him, but knew that Mike needed her help more. "look Mike, the Nurse has a free bed, let her patch you back up. You did fantastic today! Shut up about not being strong enough! The darkness smog during the duel, the wires that connect the duel disks the pain, the merging of the two bodies. we couldn't have known all this, but we do now. Get rested, tomorrow we can focus"

Mike nods his head. He didn't feel like arguing with Sofia. She doesn't know what it was like to be weak, she has been so strong since he met her. "I think I will head to nurse and restitched." The magicians calmly says as he walks past Sofia. He looks back for a moment. "Thank you for back then when you helped bring me here." Then walks out of the room resting his hand on his wound.

On his way to the Nurse's office Mike suddenly stops his tracks. He begins punching the wall repeated. His stitches completely come out and blood begins dripping from the wound.

Sofia watched as Mike walked off, clearly not wanting her to follow him. She then heard Mike releasing his frustrations on something, she was scared, and worried for Mike but she knew that if she got involved now it would only make things worse. She looked around and saw loads of busy people walking back and forth past her, but for the first time in a long time she felt incredibly alone

Mike then starting leaning on the wall. Lamenting in his weakness to protect all those who died in the onslaught. People pass by him all taking notice of his violent episode. Mike then bits his lip till blood drips from his mouth to calm down. He then slowly limbs back into the Nurse's office where she restitches his wounds as she was giving him a stern lecturer. But he didn't care. He felt as if he was the reason all those people died. They were after me first, I brought them here, Continuing to stool in his own misery.

"I'm glad it did it's job...seeing you returned safely" Celeste leaned forward and kissed Andrii on the cheek. "Here you go..." She returned his card back to him as well.

Andrii takes the card. "G'night Celeste, glad to see you're doing better." Andrii yawned. it was a long day, and it was getting really late. He slowly walked back to his dorm room. when he arrived he didn't bother showering or getting changed. he just went straight to sleep. He still had two days before the next week began. and with the chaos that was going on, he knew he'd need this
