Eric had nothing else to do after the test, so he chose to return to his dorm.
But as soon as he opened the door, he found that the room was empty, save for Opal, who was standing in the middle of the room with her arms akimbo.
Eric slammed the door shut immediately and decided he was going to have a tour of the academy again. That look on Opal's face was not forgiving, and he wasn't ready to be whipped with a military belt again. Not after a bad day at the training grounds.
"What's the deal with her anyway? What have I done to her in the short period we met? At this point, I gotta be careful the way I sleep. She might strangle me in my sleep," he spoke to himself.
"Oh, you think I'd do such a cowardly thing?" a voice responded behind him.
He shot his glance back and saw Opal smiling menacingly at him. She also seemed to be enjoying this.
"Oh bloody hell," Eric exclaimed as he rounded a corner and ran down a few classroom blocks, hoping to lose her on his trail.
