{{Chapter 19}}

All remained stunned over the teacher's announcement, creating loud inaudible chaos amongst them all.

Some were yelling and showing anger towards the teacher while others laughed, thinking it was some kind of sick joke to scare all the elites.

But for Boscha, she only stood silent as she stares at the paper Miss Edalyn showed them. Her eyes widened and her body started to tremble in fear

"No..." She stammered out, taking a few steps backward. "Where did you get that? That's not an official statement, right?" The elite continued in slight disbelief

The teacher chuckled. "Oh, it's really, kiddo. I got it from the head principal." She then faced the scared teens behind her.

"These kids... are trying to do something right by rebelling against this system. I may be a teacher but all of the staff and teachers of the school are affected by your superiority crap. As a teacher, Bump would never listen to me. But you are his students, you guys can show him how wrong this system has become." 

Luz couldn't help but smile as she stood in front of her adviser. "And we start right here, right now. Face it, Boscha, we're gonna take you and your group down one and for all"

"Ha!" The teen forced a laugh. "You and what army? There's a whole clan of elites a-and!" She started to stutter, not knowing what to reply. "You and your friends aren't enough to stop us! Yeah sure, you may have a teacher by your side but we have the highest elite in our side!" 

Edalyn yawned, stretching both her arms up. "Yawn, I got no time for this bull honkey. Now that I am the rightful owner of the club, you elites need to leave, like, right now." 

"T-this isn't fair at all! Boscha, do something!" Skara complained, sounding scared

All the former elite could do was stare at Luz, giving a more angered looked than before. It felt like she had the capability to actually hurt her and Amity

But Luz wasn't taking any of that. Now that they have an adult by their side, they can control and grow it without taking any fear from the elites

Then suddenly, something struck one of the former members of Boscha's team. "Wait, if the dance club is in Miss Edalyn's hands... that means-" He paused, turning around to face Boscha

"You are no longer an elite, Boscha..." 

The teen gasped, making her look towards her member. "N-no! That is ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! Of course, I'm still the captain." She decided to laugh it off but no one was taking her seriously 

"R-right? I'm still an elite..." Her fake smile faded away, turning into a scared expression. She faced one of the elites behind her, grabbing their shirt to make them respond. 

"C-come on! I'm Boscha Hexsis! The most feared, loved, and talented dancer in Hexside and you can't just-" 

"It's over, kid." The older elite stood up to her, taking her wrist to pull her close to them. "Elite's don't cry nor show weakness. Yet here you are, refusing to believe that you are no longer a part of us." 

Tears started to flow down her cheeks uncontrollably as she resisted taking any actions from the Elite precautioning her. She tried pulling her hand away but her body was too weak to do so. All of her friends watched her in pity and shock

"If you don't own or take over a club, you no longer deserve to be called an elite." 

"But Amity is an elite too! She's my second in command and she has to be kicked too right?!" 

Eda joined in. "Not so fast, kid. I'm the owner of the Dance club now and I can make any student an elite based on their skill. But you, you are just a clubless brat who just lost her reputation"

The older male teen then loosens her grip on Boscha's wrist when she effortlessly tried to pull it back, causing her to fall backward. There all of the elites rallied around her, staring at her in disgust. 

Luz and her team on the other hand felt slight pity for the teen. Not only did they got Boscha removed from the Elite system, but they also ruined her life and career as a student. 

Amity tried to interfere but as much as she hated to admit it, Boscha deserves this. She needs to open her eyes and see how wrong the system is

"S-should we do something?" Viney asked

The headteacher shook her head, crossing her arms to her chest." "Let her have it. She needs to know she's on the wrong side."

They just stood there, watching Boscha helplessly look down and stay silent. Now they see how corrupted their rules are, no one deserves this, not even Amity.

Skara and Mattholomule finally managed to squeeze into the crowd to stand beside their fallen captain. They then took both her arms and helped her get back to her feet

"B-boscha? Say something..." Skara muttered in a worried tone

Yet, Boscha didn't respond nor look back, she only bowed her head to avoid showing weakness and emotions to the other elites. 

Her friend tried cupping her cheeks to make her face her in the eyes. "Boscha, please say something..." 

Boscha still refused and shake her friend's hand away. All they could hear was soft sobs coming from the elite as tears slowly drip down her face and on the floor

"Tsk." The older unmanned teen clicked his tongue. "We're wasting our time here. All is settled. Let's go." He commanded

There the other elites followed his lead, leaving Boscha and all of her former crew inside the room. All that is left is the new dance club that Luz holds and Boscha's broken team

After all of the elites left, King and Jerbo immediately closed all of the doors to avoid any more elites interfering with them. 

Luz and Amity on the other hand walked down the stage to confront Boscha while the others stayed with Miss Edalyn. 

"W-what are we gonna do now?" Luz whispered to the teen beside her.

"Well, we have to do something! Boscha is still..." she paused before looking into Luz's eyes. "She's still my friend, Luz. I hate seeing her like this." 

The freshman laughed in disbelief. "Oh, please, after all, she has done to you? Amity, she deserves this!" 

"No! No one doesn't deserve this! Just let me talk to her-" Before the teen could walk away, Luz suddenly took hold of her wrist "Huh?"

"No." Luz gritted her teeth. "Why do you want to help someone who has put you in so much pain? I'm trying to protect you!" 

"No, you're not! Boscha may have been a jerk to me all these years but I still consider her as a friend, I grew stronger with her and-" 

Then suddenly, Luz snapped. "You still like her, don't you?! You still have some dumb crush on her-" 

Amity's eyes widened as soon as Luz started assuming. She immediately covered her mouth and pushed her against the wall

"Shut up, Noceda." 

The freshman didn't respond. Both teens stared into each other's eyes, reflecting anger towards one another. 

"Why did you even come up with that? I..." She took a few seconds, hesitating to continue. "I don't like Boscha. That was a few years ago and I already moved on." 

Luz forced a smile. "Ha... So you do admit it." She started in a weak tone. "I knew it, it's been bothering me ever since I heard it"

The elite sighed, removing her grip from Luz before looking away. "Look, Luz... that was a long time ago and-" 

Before she could even finish talking, the freshman suddenly ran away from her, leaving Amity in a shocking state

"Luz?" She followed the teen with her eyes, but what shocked her the most is when she realized that the teen was headed for Boscha and her gang. 

"Wait, Luz stop!" She ran after her.

With her mind filled with confusion and continuous accusations, Luz became unaware of her actions. She walked towards Boscha and called out her name several times. 

Skara and Kat tried stopping her, fearing that Boscha could not take it anymore. Yet, Luz manage to push both teens away just to face the one girl she hated the most

Eda and King caught attention to this. "Wait, what is she doing?" King asked, confused. 

"Oh no..." Willow was quick to realize that Luz was about to confront Boscha. "This is bad, let's go!" She yelled out before heading down to pull the freshman away. 

With Viney, Jerbo, and Barcus following her, Skara and the rest of her crew formed a line behind Boscha to defend her from their rivals

Now that everyone was focused on the two teens in the middle. Luz didn't hesitate to put her hand on the fallen Elite's shoulder to make her turn around. 

But as soon as Boscha looked back, she suddenly strikes a punch right in Luz's face, making the poor teen tumble down the ground. 

"You... ruined everything!" 

"Luz!" Amity slid down as she catches the freshman in her arms. "Boscha, what the hell?!" She looked up to the elite

Seeing Boscha cry so much made her heart shattered to pieces. It was clear that all she could feel was anger towards Luz and her.

"B-Boscha!" Skara tried stopping her, but the teen won't listen. "This is too much, stop!" 

Luz wasn't taking that easy either. After her fall, she forced herself to get back up and strike back with a jab on Boscha's stomach

Amity tried pulling her away but she resisted, same as Boscha. The tension between grew worse to the point where Boscha has made the first physical move

"You son of a bitch" Luz wiped the blood dripping down her nose. "Is that all you got?" 

"Argh! I'll kill you!" Boscha cried in pure anger before running towards the freshman

She tried punching her in the face once again but Luz manages to dodge it with her quick reflexes. With Boscha being countered with one single move, Luz took the chance to kick her from behind, making the teen drop down to her knees in pain

Augustus and Willow couldn't watch this grow worse any longer so they grab both Luz's arms and pull her back

"Luz! Stop! What's wrong with you?!" 

"Boscha! Somebody helped her!" Willow yelled out, signaling Skara to rush in and help her get back

But when Skara tried to pull Boscha back to her feet, the teen slapped her hand away and quickly rushed towards Luz to tackle her while she's being held

Both students fell to the ground with Boscha having the advantage. She kneeled on top of Luz as she started to punch her directly in the face multiple times. 

"You. Ruined. EVERYTHING!" She yelled with every punch she landed

Luckily, Miss Eda managed to take hold of the raging teen as she pulled her away from Luz. "That's enough!" She started, before looking down on her student. "Luz! Are you okay? Luz!" 

"Let go of me you, of hag!" 

Eda gritted her teeth. "That's it! All you elites do is just bring trouble and choose! Get the hell out of my club, now!" 

She then dragged Boscha with all her might and threw her in the school hallway. "I never want to see your face here ever again, Hexsis." 

Amity then rushed beside the teacher and watched Boscha regain her strength. She tried coming closer to her but Skara and the others ran towards their captain, making Amity lose sight of Boscha. 

But when Boscha finally stood up, she gave one last angered glance to her old friend, looking away from her eyes after

"I-I thought you were different, Blight... I really-" She sobbed as she violently wiped the tears on her face. "I really liked you... But you changed, you changed for someone you barely know." 

"We're still not done, Blight."

With that Boscha walked away from the room as her friends followed her from behind, leaving Eda and Amity shocked in the entrance

Yet, the problem wasn't solved. As soon as Boscha left, Amity quickly turned to the poor teen back in the room. 

"Luz? Luz!" She cried before running towards her friend. She pushed Gus aside and kneeled in front of the unconscious teen. 

She saw bruises and blood all over the freshman's face, making her heart shatter even more. She glanced around the people surrounding her, they all had the same shocked and worried expression as the teen. 

"Don't just stand there, call the healers!" 

Jerbo and Barcus nodded before running out of the room to alert the healers nearby. Amity on the other hand was still yelling out the freshman's name, hoping to make her wake up

"Noceda... Luz wake up!" 

Viney then moved her aside and took Luz in her hands "Don't worry, I was in the healers club once, I know what to do!" 

"D-do something please!" 

"Aw man, this is bad." Eda covered her mouth. "She has blood all over her. Someone go get me a towel, now!" 

Everyone started to yell and get worried for Luz, panicking about the freshman's state. But all of the noise became inaudible for Amity for she only focused on Luz

She took hold of her hand and held it tightly

"Luz... what's happening to you? What made you think that way?"
