"Kage Park, that was brilliant. I'm impressed you have such a strong familiar hidden like that." Mr. Huffling applauded.
Kage crossed his arms.
"Thanks,” he replied, looking like he didn't want Mr. Huffling’s praise.
Braxton and I exchanged glances before we both rose up.
Mr. Huffling was only 5'5” in height, making our six-feet plus height deemed intimidating as he turned to us.
"Since Kage demonstrated his awesomeness, can we go now?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at our teacher.
Something was bugging me about his words of praise as if he was expecting something from Kage now.
My instincts told me he would want to benefit from Kage in some hidden manner. It was the same distinct impression I got when he laid eyes on Alice like she was a trophy to be won.
Of course, that stopped after I glared the living shit out of him, the intense glimpse of my power enough to scare him off. But even with the warning from last week, he'd snuck peeks here and there during class.
I shouldn't bring Alice unless I have to. Hmm.
"Ya. I think we've met our requirements. I don't see the point of us wasting time here when the remaining students are still frozen like statues instead of working on the task you asked us to complete," Braxton added.
Mr. Huffling looked back to the students who were just standing there, still staring at Kage and stuttered.
"You're right. Um...you may leave class early. I hope to see more of your advanced skills next class. Good day Mr. Starfire and to both of you Mr. Parks." He smiled innocently.
His eyes lingered on Alice and Koa and I purposely took a step in front of him to block his view, stretching out my arms.
"Oh man, I stink. Let's go shower, Brax. Kage, come with us," I suggested, purposely looking at Mr. Huffling with a grin.
He frowned, clearly understanding my hidden move but turned around anyway.
"Get back to work. We have thirty minutes left before class is supposedly over. I want to see another person summon a familiar or this session is going overtime,” he grumbled.
Everyone else groaned, getting back to work while cursing.
Braxton patted my shoulder, leaning in to whisper in my ear.
"We need to watch out for him. He gives me weird vibes."
"I agree," I replied. Kage walked over to Alice and Koa who were playing around, Alice’s little kitten form chasing after Koa who purposely flew quite low to the ground.
They noticed Kage approach and both paused.
Alice looked sad and even Koa looked disappointed that playtime was over.
Kage smiled, crouching down to pet both of them.
"I'm showering at home so you two wanna tag along? You can continue playing when we get home," Kage suggested.
"MEOW!" Alice cheered. "YEAH! Wait, I need Jewel's permission. MOMMM."
I broke out laughing, which made me look a little crazy but I couldn't help being happy for Alice who suddenly acted like a school girl going on her first date.
She was always the collected, quiet, calm type yet she did a complete 180 and was now a bubbly happy mess, which was adorable.
"Yes, Alice. You can play with Koa as long as you want. Go with Kage, we’ll see each other when I get back," I approved and she ran over to cling to my dress pants.
I sighed, leaning over to pick her up and she rubbed her head against my cheek before licking my face.
