sin.

-ringring-

The bell went, making the professor stand up, "well that's your cue to get to class, you've missed out on a lot." He said, almost forcing me out the room, I turned around and stood in the door way. "You're wrong. I will write my own destiny, because I-"

-slam- I was cut off by a rude door shut in my face, this man and his hobby to cut me off urgh. "In trouble already are we?" A females voice spoke, I looked to my left to find a girl in a yellow uniform. "Oh no I was just called in to have a talk with him." I said, noticing she meant the fact that I just walked out of the heads office.

"I'm Clara," she smiled, extending her hand for me, oh right, the pretty girl with orange hair from yesterday. "I'm Jewel," I accepted her handshake as we headed to class. "I'm so excited for Mr Yoon's teaching methods, he's so cool don't you think?" She said, fangirling as we entered the class, which just happened to be his. "Meh, I liked his son better," I mumbled, "what?" She asked, I shook my head while smiling it off.

I greeted Nova who was in this class, Taehyung just sat at the back in his own world. Everyone had already taken their seats, the only one left was the one right in the front centre of the class. I sat down next to some random kid as class began. "Today class, we will be learning about the 7 deadly sins, punishable by hellfire," Mr Yoon said, handing out text books. "Now can anyone tell me what they are, and what they mean?" He said, hands in the class shooting up to answer.

"Yes ms Harlow," he picked Nova, "pride. Pride is the exaltation of self above all authority, even God's authority. Pride is cosmic arrogance," he said, earning an impressed clap from the teacher. He picked on a boy, "lust!" Him and his friends giggled like little kids, Mr Yoon attempted to move on, "but sir wouldn't you like me to elaborate?"

The whole class let out a laugh at sirs clear uncomfortableness with the topic, even my lips tilted upwards while rolling my eyes. We continued as people called out other sins, "ms, Jewel, would you like to inform us of the last sin?" He suddenly picked on me. "Wrath, it-"

"It can be defined as uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. Wrath often reveals itself in the wish to seek vengeance. In its purest form, wrath presents with injury, violence, and hate that may provoke feuds that can go on for centuries." The teacher cut me off, seems like people just fucking love doing that today. "It was the sin that satan himself committed daily," he looked towards me, as he did during his entire explanation. He made me feel so cornered, so, guilty? Even though I hadn't done anything wrong it felt as if he was warning, blaming me almost. What's his deal...

The class soon ended, and everyone was making their way to next period. I stayed in my seat which confused Mr Yoon, "did you not hear the bell, your highness?" He raised an eyebrow, whispering the last words. "I have a question," I said, standing up while I put my books in a pile. "Did you have another child?" I asked, taking him by surprise, "no, my wife has quite a weak body, she could not give birth more than once or it would give her permanent damage." He explained.

"So you've never, I don't know, had sexual relations with someone else?" I tilted my head. "Well that escalated, are you accusing me of adultery?" He was offended but kept his calm, he even managed to chuckle through the anger. "My wife is so kind she's friends with each and every angel there is, I assure you none of them would betray her to, fuck me." He faked a smile, his tone sounding truthful.

"Oh sir I hope I didn't offend you, it was just a wild guess," I smiled with a tint of mischievousness, he was uncomfortable. Now, and when we talked about lust in class. It's not just that we're kids, he's hiding something, I can see the guilt in his eyes. "Well then, if you're done with your wild guesses, I'd recommend you leave, my next class is waiting to come inside." He almost glared at me as I took my leave.

While walking to the next class, my mind was full of possibilities. Possibilities of how Seohyun could be his daughter. The resemblance, and even the eerie personality, all too similar. He's definitely had an affair, I just need to find out with who... "ouch," I rubbed my forehead as I walked into someone's chest.

"Watch where you're- oh Jewel, hey," I looked up to see Isaac with an orange tie, he must belong to Ixorus. "Are you lost? Would you like me to take you to class?" He asked kindly, "uh sure." I replied, as he lead the way to class, "this lesson is my personal favourite, it's so useful." He said, as we walked into the defence against the dark arts lesson.

"You two are late."

"If it's a problem we could go back out," Isaac replied sarcastically making the class laugh, "detention," the teacher slammed his book shut. Isaac grabbed my wrist while chuckling, as he seated me next to him. "Today we will have a practical lesson, so everybody work together to push the desks and chairs to the side." The teacher had a very monotone type voice, he kind of sounded like a witch.

"We will learn about a spell that will not harm your target, but with impact push them away, in a way, stun them." He said, as he shone his red light, pointing at an object before screaming, "Iraculous!" He object flew to the side and broke into many pieces. "Oh don't make that face, you guys won't break when you do it to each other." He rolled his eyes seeing a rather scrawny looking student about to cry.

I silently went to the back of the class, I couldn't participate but I didn't want anyone to know why. It would make me look weak, and it would give me so much unwanted attention. The class was going by as smoothly as you'd think, a bunch of teens yeeting each other to the sides of the classrooms.

I was hiding behind a small pillar, going unnoticed for most of the lesson. "Well what do we have here," the teacher tutted as he looked down at me simply reading a random book I had found to look occupied. "A princess?" I whispered, I knew the teachers were aware of who I was, I was trying to use my identity to get out of this situation.

"Really now? Get up." He pulled on my wrist, yanking me up, as he took me to the centre of the classroom. "Now usually kids, I don't do spells on you, but since we have a volunteer, I don't seem to mind." He faked a smile, having his light at the ready, "oh for fucks sake." I thought taking a deep breath as he screamed, "Iraculous!"

-slam- I fell into one of the tables, obviously breaking it, his spell was powerful as you'd expect it to be. "Now, you do it to me," he said, making me groan as I got up, before furrowing my eyebrows at his statement. He knew my powers didn't work, what's he playing at? "No." I shortly replied. "What?" He crossed his arms, walking closer to me.

"I said no. Is it the language barrier between my english and your stupidity or are old ears getting to you?" I faked a smile, turning around to go get my bag and get the hell out of the class. Suddenly I flew against the wall, without someone actually touching me.

"Rule number 1, never turn your back against an enemy," the teacher said to the class, as Nova rushed towards me to help me up. "The audacity to think you can even be considered an enemy of mine, I won't hesitate to hit an old man," I looked him up and down before exiting the room.

Bored, I walked around the huge castle like school. I found a window sill which had the view of everything, I sat in it and took a deep breath. Eyes fluttering shut as I took a nap.

"Ouch." I slapped my arm as I was bitten by a mosquito, the school seemed so empty, I knew everyone else was in class but, there was this weird feeling I got, as if something was coming. "Hey Jewel," a voice whispered, but there was nothing around me, I got up, and tried to follow this familiar sounding voice. I turned the corner and saw my godfather, "I've missed you..." he said, eyes welling up.

"You have to resist the evil, otherwise it'll consume you."

"You're dead." I stepped back, not letting whatever this was get to me. "Oh Jewel." His entire expression changed, "you'll be dead soon too, if you don't do as he says." He took a step forward, "who's he?" I asked. "Yoohoo," a voice taunted behind me, before I could turn around a sharp knife dug through my abdomen. "Goodnight forever darling."

"Jewel, Jewel wake up!"

My eyes flew open, I looked around to see Nova and Taehyung standing next to me, "you've been sleeping for the entirety of break time." She chuckled, I was still sitting at the window sill. But, everything felt so real, I quickly lifted up my shirt to reveal my stomach, "HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" A flustered Taehyung turned around. There was no wound, no stab wound, but weirdly that area tingled, as if something had happened.

"I had such a weird dream," I covered my face in tiredness as Nova placed a book in my lap. "I tried to write all the things we learnt before you arrived, use this book to catch up ok?" She smiled.

"Thank you," I said, flipping through the pages of all these spells. "Here," Taehyung awkwardly handed me a piece of bread, I looked at him and smiled. "Hey, I'm sorry about how I acted yesterday, it was wrong of me to act so-"

"It doesn't matter, as you said a couple days back, we aren't friends, you don't need to apologise to someone you don't even consider a friend." He cut me off, putting his hands in his pocket as he headed to next lesson. "But I do."

"I do consider you a friend."
