Chapter 4 - 1.3

Alexina POV.

I sat myself down and watched the scene infront of me unfold.

Resting my legs across Will's knees, I leaned back. The most important thing for me is that Abigail and Malin are having fun, Milani is with them and they seem to be getting on great.

To say Grayson is rude is an understatement the same goes for Lucian. TJ is nice but he is a bit dopey.

Connor sat down infront of me, mischief sparkling in his eyes as usual.

"You don't look happy?" He pouted and I threw my straw at him.

He frowned before throwing a piece of ice but I quickly stopped it mid air and let it evaporate with my fire.

"Dude, those three guys are trouble." Will leaned forward, his arms resting on my legs. "That Lucian kid is a member of the Zinapoli wizarding family. One of the most powerful families in our world."

"He might be different," Connor argued and I shook my head.

"Dude. He bullies my roomates on a daily basis. I don't think he is different. His family, hates elementals. Plus, I don't think he is the problem." I groaned and Billy walked over with Hudson.

Both of their faces written with disgust as they walked back from Grayson and TJ.

"I don't like them." Hudson frowned as he folded his arms.

"Yeah, they're mean." Billy chimed in and I patted his shoulder while he sulked. "I don't like the fact I can't use my powers on him in an open space Alexina-"

"Dude you can make him choke on his drink!" Hudson jumped a little and I stared at them both in disbelief before leaning forward.

"Well Grayson is a vampire so I don't know what more you're expecting from him." I sighed as I'm quite upset that he is a dick.

I don't know what more to expect from a vampire if I'm honest. They hate us and we hate them.

Its not in an Elementals nature to be kind towards strangers, especially werewolves and vampires. But its not in a vampires nature to be kind to anyone, especially an Elemental.

You would think after centuries that we'd all learn to get along. But nope.

Like I've said before, Elementals are the most powerful families in the supernatural world. Vampires don't like that. They never have.

"Well blame Connor. He is roomates with Grayson and TJ. Lucian is their other friend." Hudson folded his arms. "This was meant to be fun guys. Instead we're swarmed with people who hate us."

"Its not my fault! I just want to make friends with people,"

"Connor, you know full well that being who you are doesn't give you the luck everyone else has with friends." Will smiled sympathetically.

"Connor. As good-looking as Grayson is, his charm doesn't work on everyone. He is a Vampire." I nodded my head slowly at Connor and he frowned before nodding his head.

"Malin and Abigail seem pretty cool," Hudson pointed over to my two roommates who are surrounded by humans.

"They are. Its a shame they're segregated from everyone else." I glanced over and Billy clapped his hands catching all of our attention.

"Imagine the respect they would receive if they were seen with all of us." Billy grinned. "Should they be part of the clan?"

"Yeah," Hudson shrugged quite unbothered.

"I don't see why not." Connor replied.

"I think they would love that," I smiled as I glanced over at the girls. Abigail's laugh echoed through the bar and an even bigger grin formed on my face.

Not missing the angry stares we were receiving from Grayson, Lucian and TJ.

Hudson waved at them in a childish manner and I felt Will move beside me. Sitting up, he shook his head at all four of us.

"You four are in for some serious trouble. I can feel it." He shook his head again before gulping down his drink.

Connor leaned forward. A smirk forming on his face as he glanced over at Grayson and his friends before turning his head around to us.

"We're in this trouble together right?" His eyes travelled to ours.

"Together."

Billy drooped his arm over my shoulder as we headed through the corridors to the academy.

Hudson had wanted all four of us to meet up early to suggest how we were going to deal with idiot's.

Connor's answer was to give them the same treatment but eventually we all agreed that unless we were harmed physically, then we just ignore them and get on with our day.

No matter how hard it may seem.

No cutting Lucian's hair.

No brushing Grayson's teeth with a brick.

We decided not to harm TJ cause he's just too damn cute.

Whispers were swarming around us and guys whistled as we walked past. Hudson, Billy and Connor glared while I just ignored them.

"Hey aren't those your friends?" Connor pointed over to the end of the corridor where Malin and Abigail were stood.

People were brushing past them, showing no attention for the behaviour they were showing.

"People here are dicks man." Billy shook his head as we all leaned against the wall.

All four of us currently had the same lesson which is power demonstration, so this lesson should be fun.

"Hey Malin! Abigail!" Hudson yelled as he waved his hands in the air.

Malin turned around stunned while Abigail looked down at the floor.

Once Malin saw it was Hudson, she nudged Abigail who noticed me and a smile spread across her lips.

Walking over towards us. People stared at them, dirty looks and glares being thrown their way.

"Carry on walking," Connor yelled at people who walked past. "Give them a dirty look one more time and I'll tornado you out of this shithole," he spat and people began to mind their own business.

While some people actually stood there contemplating actually being thrown out of this shithole.

"What did we agree to?" Billy sighed and Connor frowned before grinning at Abigail and Malin.

"Sorry," he mumbled. "I just don't like bullies."

"Its okay," Abigail whispered and Malin threw us all questioning looks.

"Why are we here guys?"

"Well friends of Lexi's are friends of ours," Billy wrapped his arm around Abigail's shoulder making her jump.

"You guys have nothing to worry about with us here," Hudson chimed in. "We have got your back. Lexi trusts you, so do we."

Hang on- what?

This makes no sense.

"What?"

"Thats stupid."

"Shut up Connor. You're stupid."

"Shut it," I glared before gesturing for Abigail to speak.

Once she was sure that it was quiet and won't be interrupted again, she began again.

"Apparently, he is in hiding. Nobody here has ever met him." She simplified her answer so that Connor understood and his eyes widened.

"What's his name again?" Connor asked and Malin rolled her eyes subtly making me chuckle.

"Alistair."

"You're joking. No way." Connor replied sarcastically earning himself a slap across the head from Hudson.

"Seriously. Nobody knows his-"

"Oh don't tell me you're going on about this again Fredrickson," a humourless voice called out behind us and we all turned around to see who it was.

Of course it was Lucian. Lucian and his luscious brown locks.

"I see these poor souls have taken you two pathetic excuses in." He spat and I held Hudson down while both Malin and Abigail looked like they were about to flip.

I don't think he is what bothers them. I think its that his opinion had such a big impact on others that everyone else turned against them.

They're hated and its not even their fault.

"You guys realise that these two nearly lead this academy to destruction right?" Lucian asked in disgust and Hudson burst out laughing.

"No way- what happened?" He nudged Abigail who opened her mouth to speak but Lucian interrupted her.

"Lets just say, they don't know the meaning of the word danger." He snarled and I groaned as he was joined by TJ and Grayson.

"Get lost Lucian." Billy waved his hand dismissively and I looked up to see Grayson staring at me.

Connor seemed to notice and let out a loud cough causing every one to glare.

"I'd keep a close eye on these freaks." Lucian spat. "Nothing but trouble."

"Go and take your attitude somewhere else Lucian," I smiled. "We don't need your comments."

"Listen here Valentine-"

My eyes widened at the tone of his voice and while everyone was expecting me to kick off, I keep my composure.

The last thing I need is this scrawny little excuse of a wizard annoying me.

"Pathetic elemental." Lucian spat again. "You'll be sorry when-"

"When what?" I asked. "You turn me into a frog?" I laughed and everyone else at the table joined.

A smirk made its way onto Graysons lips and TJ nudged him as if he were committing a crime.

"Mulverum lavera,"

Nothing.

"Mulverum lavera,"

Nothing again.

Is this kid an idiot?

He should know that wizard magic doesn't work on elementals.

Abigail learnt that the hard way when she tried to use teleportation on us.

"Silly boy," Billy shook his head.

"Idiot." Hudson laughed.

"Bye now." Connor grinned before clicking his fingers.

Lucian flew. That boy flew.

Lucians body landed in the far corner of the hall, his body hit so hard off the wall that I'm positive he has broken a bone.

TJ and Grayson stared at Connor in disbeleif. As did the rest of us.

"I don't like bullies."
