Chapter 25: First step Accomplished

Arch's POV

Tick....Tock...... I'm waiting for the bell to ring cause this tensed air is making my breath quicken. The creepy glare that is being shot to me is really making me feel nervous. It's creepy for some unknown reasons.

I'm being watch by her ...... Yup.... It's Crystal

She's been staring at me ...probably making sure I don't say anything about THAT.

The bell rang and I immediately took off to my locker. When I  arrived at my locker, I put my books and took books for the next periods. Then suddenly , my locker was banged and I fell, in my surprise. My breath quickened and I put my hand to my chest to help me calm down I looked up and saw Richard looking at me with his poker face and with his elbow above my locker's surface.

"Holy crap Richard , You gave me a heart attack" 

"Yeah, Like I'm going to believe that" he scoffed 

I sit up properly and bend my knees down so I took the books that fell down.

Then I noticed Richard crouching, with his elbows resting on his knees and our eye level is now equal . He smiled and asked

"Wanna eat together?"

"HUh?"

And before I realize it , I was dragged to the forest behind the science garden.

I was quite amuse of the view. So this is the forest.... I wasn't the type that looks around the school because I was too busy of being a president and being a student.

"Hey stupid" I looked behind me and saw Richard eating an apple while lying his back to the side of the tree. " Quit looking around , we don't have all day to eat you know"

" I know, But other than eating , what are the other reasons of you dragging me to this place?"

Then his eyes became serious and he looked at me. 

"What? I can't understand eye language if you just know"

"Tss yeah, But at least you should know that this is a serious matter" he sarcastically said

I went to his side and put my books down and I laid my hands behind my behind as I lay myself to the side of the tree 

"You're not gonna eat?"

"Nope, just want to rest my head"

"Just drink water then ..here" then he hand the mineral water to me .....I started to drink with my lips attached to the lid of the bottle 

"Why was Crystal angry and giving you a scary glare?"

"Ugh!"  I accidentally spat some of the water that I haven't swallowed and did I mention that it was funny when that Richard got a direct attack from that? Pfftt..... I kind of remember Pokemon all of the sudden.

" Sorry, You kind of surprised me" I wipe my mouth with my hand

" It's okay, It's my fault that I suddenly mentioned that" He said as he took his handkerchief and wipes his face 

" Well....... The reason is that I know something about Zira that I don't know"

"Zira? Can you tell me ?"

Ughh...... This is making me confuse.... I just want to tell him but somehow I can feel something terrible..... Nope... I got to say this...

"Richard.... Zira...... Zira is...." 

When I was about to say something quite important..... I suddenly saw an arrow shot at that tree and it was just between Richard and my head

"Sh*t!!!! What in the world ?" Richard cursed under his quickened breath ......... I noticed that there was a note attached to it..... I took it and read
