●Draíochta Academy●

●5●

I stand behind the door, seeing the strange man who was in my dream, stand right in front of my eyes. Except he wasn't a shadow. He was a regular guy. He had chocolate, milky, brown hair. Dark brown eyes that I could get lost in, he was definitely taller than me. Probably by 7-10 inches more. He also looked around my age if not a few years older than me. I looked up and down, finally meeting eye contact. 

"Uhhh.. W-Who are you?" I stutter out. 

I see him smile and hear him finally talk, the same voice in my dream. 

He clears his throat and speaks. "Hi, I'm Jodie, Jodie Oak. It's my pleasure of telling you that. You, miss Knight are formally invited to Draíochta Academy." He smiles at me, waiting for me to speak.

I look at him confused, and open the door a little more and spoke. "What.. What? What are you talking about? How do you know who I am? Who are yo-" He cuts me off.

"I know, this is all very confusing, but please listen. You have been chosen to go to Draíochta Academy and learn with all the other species." 

Still with a puzzled look on my face I ask him to explain more. "Well, miss Knight. At Draíochta Academy, you learn to find your true power and how to use them properly. Along with finding out what your true spec-" I shut the door on him and lock it quickly.

I think to myself, 'what in the bloody hell was that? What the hell is Draiotchbleh Academy whatever it's name is? I've never heard of it in my entire life before. So, what could he possibly be talking about? Maybe it's some place in America, but still why me? I'm not special in any sort of way. So then why me?' I get knocked out of my train of thought when I hear him knock on the door and hear him call my last name. As I'm about to open the door I hear a noise and turn around I see him behind me.

"H-how the hell did you get in here!" I yell sort of, he ends up slamming his hands down on the door, trapping me.

"Listen, Miss Knight. I know this is all very confusing but please just listen. Let me take you there myself and I can show you. I'm not sure why you were chosen but I can already tell just by being around you that you have a VERY strong and powerful aura surrounding you. Almost like a shield. So please just trust me and let me show you, If you don't like it I promise you, I will take you back to this exact spot if you tell me you want to go home." I'm shocked when he tells me this then asked him.

"Ever heard of stranger danger? How do I know you aren't going to kill me..?" I ask him.

"Well, I do know you. This may sound crazy but I've been watching you for awhile now. I also know you just woke up from a dream with me in it, and I also know you have the gem I told you to give me when we met in real life. Believe me now?" He raises an eyebrow. I feel a lump in my throat then see darkness. 

I fainted.

I wake up, looking at my boring off-white ceiling. I sigh and realize it was all a dream until I hear a males voice and look over.

"Are you feeling okay Miss Knight?" He says in a concerned voice.

I jump and get startled. "I-I.." I stutter not knowing what to say. I hear him talk once more.

"Okay, Miss Knight. I will ask you once more. Would you please join Draíochta Academy?" He says while standing up and reaching his hand out about a few inches from my face. I look at his hand then back up at his face. After a minute I sigh and finally talk."

"I don't know why you're here, I don't know who you are, I have no clue how  you know about my dream or about who I am. Don't even get me started on the following part. But, Yes. I will join Draíochta Academy." I look up at him and see his face turn into a huge smile. I blush finally realizing that this Jodie dude was actually pretty cute, if not. He was pretty hot.

"...Really? Like, you're not gonna back out or anything? Like. This if for re-" I cut him off and speak.

"Yes ... Jodie. I'm being serious. Also, my name is Sage, please don't call me by my last name.." I tell him, making sure that he understands my answer. 

I hear him sigh out of relief and see his hand in my face again. "Well? Grab on to it. I won't bite, I promise you." He smiles at me. As I'm about to grab on I realize I left Lone down stairs.

"Oh shit.. I-I'll be right back." I hop out of my bed and go downstairs. I can hear Jodie following me behind. I look around and see a black object move out of the corner of my eye. I walk over and pick him up wrapping him around my arm.

"There we go.. " I smile once he's attached to my arm. I turn around and see Jodie behind me. He looks confused then realizes that I'm bringing Lone with me. I smile and hold on to his hand. He ends up wrapping both of his arms around me and I blush from the extreme close skin to skin contact. I close my eyes and I feel myself get dizzy. I look up and see bright green plains. I'm extremely confused by the scene change and look at Jodie.

"Uhhh. Jodie where are we?" I ask him, with a puzzled look on my face.

I hear him chuckle puts his hand out again. "This is Draíochta Academy." He smiles at me reassuringly.

I grab on to him and he leads me to the middle of the field, I look over and realize it was almost like an invisible portal to another world. What was once a boring, plain, bright green field. Was now a world I've never seen before. 

I was at Draíochta Academy, and I am very confused.
