Chapter 12 - SkyCruisers



David instantly felt a headache coming up. He wasn’t sure about their plans yet, but he wouldn’t let that affect him.

“I’m telling you, this might be some insane stunt the institute is trying to -“

“Do you know where the lessons are taking place?” Dav interrupted the still rambling Nihyuh.

“No, I don’t.” Nihyuh replied

Dav looked at him with his eyebrow raised “Did you not go for lessons yesterday?” puzzled David asked.

Nihyuh immediately grew furious, his head fuming with smoke in anger.

“Of course not, i have been searching everywhere for you!”

“Sorry about that, I was really busy throughout the day, I couldn’t get hold of you. Thanks for that anyways.” Although David still wasn’t sure why Nihyuh was doing this, he still thanked him anyways.

Nihyuh who was on the verge of exploding calmed down a bit.

David’s looks wasn’t worth calling handsome. He is as ordinary as as a passerby one would see in a market place. One without any remarkable features. Well his droopy eyes might let one remember him… at least.

Glaring at David angrily, Nihyuh breathed out loudly.

Phew!

“Your schedule should have been sent to you already if only you would just check your inbox.”

Nihyuh exhaled.

“Although, I don’t think some of the students are aware of the fact that they had their schedules with them all these while, its as though our imprint had been defaultly silenced.” Nihyuh pondered.

David hand that was about to summon his personal interface paused when he heard that, but he resumed subsequently.

Calling forth his interface, he checked his inbox, thereupon containing different messages. From the institute mostly.

He inspected them just by sweeping his gaze roughly, scrolling down when he saw not what he sought after.

After a moment of searching lightly, he found what he was looking for. It turns out the schedule was hidden admist the countless welcome messages sent from the institute.

Rolling his eyes at such deception, David took the schedule with hands he opened it like it was a real sheet of paper. It was almost like virtual reality mixed together with the real life. He still couldn’t help himself from being amazed.

Prying open the schedule. As he kept reading, his expression kept changing. From his previous amazed gaze, his expression fell gradually, just like a chocolate beaten by the sun. One time, Nihyuh couldn’t tell if he was either laughing or crying.

“What tight schedule!” David shouted in his head, throwing the schedule out in anger.

“Are you sure you want to permanently delete this message?”A message instantly popped up from his interface.

David stared blankly. A few second passed, he replied “Of course not. And place that thing as top priority.” David said after some thoughts. His headache was already becoming worse.π‘›π‘œπšŸπ“”π”©π’π„xt.π‘π—ˆπš–

Nevertheless, he didn’t have to look up to know Nihyuh was on the verge of laughing.

“Go ahead.” David looked elsewhere.

“Really??” Nihyuh was skeptical but … he just couldn’t hold it any longer

“Hahahahaha y-yo-you can’t…Hahaha.”

Clutching his stomach, he almost laughed his guts out. He just couldn’t stop even after a minute. Since the time David asked him, the first time in the dorm to withdraw his bed from wherever it was hidden, he had known David really loved his sleep. But now, he wouldn’t have enough time to sleep.

David stood there, staring expressionlessly into space.

The schedule he saw, almost made him lost his mind.

There was not a single day of rest throughout the week even on weekends, they were to have lessons every single day in a week. For a whole three months which after there would be tests every week, they would be given two days of rest, Then they’d be tested based on what they had been taught.

But the main point is that, David wouldn’t have enough time to sleep, as lessons starts as early as 6 am in the morning every single day and ends at 6 pm giving the students enough time to study or practice, or so the institute thought.

And the breaks only lasts for about 20 minutes not enough time for Dav who likes to slowly savour his food and eating to his fill would take more than hour, however would he cope from now on.

Dav’s expressionlessly thought. If it wasn’t for the fact that the curriculum has been circulated through his batch, he would have thought that someone was specifically targeting him.

Shifting his line of sight toward Nihyuh who was just getting up from the ground having finished laughing.

“Ahem. Thanks, I’m done.”

Nihyuh dusted his body.

“You are welcome. What’s on your schedule for the morning.” regaining his countenance, David asked while navigating his way out of the building with Nihyuh in tow.

“Combat practice. You?” Nihyuh replied.

“Same.” David replied with a raised eyebrow.

Surprised, “Looks like we are stuck every morning for three months isn’t it.”

Grunting, David picked up the pace.

“Hazel, the route towards my first lessons, lead me there.” David spoke to his imprint. Stepping into the elevator, he descended towards the last floor of the building.

Exiting the building, David checked the time, 7am. They were late by an hour.

“How much time would it take to get to the combat field based on my current speed?” David asked. His left hand towards his mouth. Jogging towards the combat field with Nihyuh tow. Well mostly with Nihyuh complaining.

” 2 hrs : 14 mins : 43secs!” Dav instantly staggered. Nihyuh almost bumping into him.

“That long?” David immediately stooped uncontrollablely. If he had made the mistake of not asking, he would have cried himself to death.

“What’s wrong with you?!” Nihyuh asked, confused.

“Nothing. Do you by any means know how to get there faster? Uber? Taxi?” Tilting his head slightly.

“Yes, that’s what I’ve been trying to tell you? What do you mean by Uber and taxi? Someone you know?” Nihyuh stared at David, shaking his head.

“Uhm, it’s nothing. Just answer the question.” David was getting rather impatient.

“Alright, let’s just call for a lift then. Almost forgot, have you been graded yet?” suddenly remembering something, he asked David.

“Yes but can you just call the lift!”

“Okay, I will, calm down.” Nihyuh stood motionlessly staring at space for 30 seconds.

David stared blankly at him for the whole duration of thirty seconds at a loss for words. As realisation hit him, he instantly wanted to roar out in rage! Was this guy joking with him? What did this guy take him for?

He wasn’t able to though, as a shadow loomed over them, prompting him to raise his head in confusion. The shadow got much larger as it came closer to them. Almost causing David to panic. He suddenly noticed the four thrusters at the sides of the object that was coming over them.

He suddenly remembered seeing something like that earlier. It seems Nihyuh really called for a lift and wasn’t standing blankly there for no reason at all.

The Skycruiser landed steadily and softly in front of David’s slightly ajar mouth. Wherein the thrusters output slowed down considerably as bursts and streams of energy and fire reduced.

The Skycruiser could be called splashes of colour. It contains most of the primary colours. Blue, red, white, etc. Showing how ragged it was.

It has an oval shape forefront exterior which is painted black. The four thrusters painted blue, the top of the Skycruiser, another colour entirely and… basically, the Skycruiser was a mess of colours, too ugly to even glance at.

It was the size of a big bus. The flank which David assumed was the hatch, slid open upwards with a mechanical sound.

Whoosh!

A shadow gradually began to emerge from within the Commercial Cruiser.

What came out from the hatchway was a beauty.
