1 Chapter 1

Magic was natural around the world. Everybody has some sort of magic that they were born with. New types of magic are discovered every day, the possibilities are endless, but one day a very dangerous magic was brought into the world. Corruption had the ability to slowly kill whoever it infected. In a way the ability was sort of like a disease. This became known as Corruption at small amounts the corruption could do no harm. Small amounts of corruption can cause a simple cold or another minor illness will be inflicted. This quantity of corruption is common,and it's how minor illnesses came into existence in the world.

During the sickness of a person their magical abilities could experience a variety of different outcomes. Their abilities could be altered, causing their entire magical ability to shift; for example fire users would become ice for a little while. Their abilities can be extremely sensitive for example instead of causing a spark a fire mage could cause a massive explosion on accident. At mid sized amounts the corruption acts as a small poison, killing the user slowly. The death takes up to a year or longer depending on the person and how well they can tolerate it. Large amounts of corruption can kill someone instantly. The corruption can be cured at medium amounts; smaller amounts go away within time.

Now that the background is set, let's get to school. It was a new year at Rose academy a string of freshmen were making their way to class. A small girl looking like she belongs back in junior high was walking through the halls with her chin held high. She had orange hair, red eyes, and fairly toned skin. She wore the standard girls uniform consisting of a black blouse underneath a red dress, and a black jacket.

On the other side of the school was a boy with dark hair, pale skin and black eyes. He wore the standard boys uniform. The uniform consisted of a red button up, a black jacket, and black pants. He walked around with a smile on his face greeting the other students. Last there was a boy with red hair, fair skin, and purple eyes. He looked tired and like he didn't wanna be awake. He saw other students and wanted nothing to do with them. He avoided everyone he could.

Near the entrance there was a boy with dark hair, blue eyes, and tanned skin. He wore a gray hoodie, black ripped jeans, and a pair of high tops resting on his head were headphones. He walked to his class and rarely spoke to any of the other students only interacting when they spoke first. Most of the time it was a simple 'good morning' or a 'hi'.

Stretching while most of the boys gawked at her was a girl with dark messy hair, tanned skin, and yellow eyes. She wore a black jacket, a pink dress and a black blouse under, accompanied by black leggings, and black boots with pink soles, and laces.

The small girl walked into the class and scanned the room. If I sit at the back then no one can really bother me...but then that would mean getting called out more the girl thought. The girl then looked at the middle. If I sit there then I can mind my own business and not get called on as often because the teacher will think I'm paying attention, the girl thought. They looked at the front row. If I sit here then I'll probably get called on a lot due to the fact that the teacher can tell when I'm not paying much attention the girl thought. She sighed and plopped down in a chair in the middle closer to the window waiting for the other students to see who her classmates would be.

The next person to walk in was the boy with dark hair and pale skin wearing the school uniform. The girl looked at the dark haired boy and then back out the window that's one other student in the room let's see the others... thought the girl. As she finished her thought the other female student walked in taking her seat in the front row as the boy that had walked in quietly sat next to her. She's beautiful but...how do I tell her that as a compliment without being awkward the boy thought. He was pulled from his thoughts as another student walked in, but this one was beside the teacher. This student had white hair, purple eyes, and fair skin he wore the standard boys uniform. The teacher standing beside the students spoke "Hello class, I am your Teacher Mrs. Yuki" said a woman with blonde hair. She wore what looked like a business suit with black heeled boots, and a tie to match.

Walking late into class was the boy with tanned skin and blue eyes. He spotted everyone else seeing them in their uniforms causing him to get red with embarrassment. He rubbed the back of his head "I uh...I didn't think the uniform was required on the first day" said the boy.

What an idiot... thought the orange haired girl. Her thoughts were interrupted by the purple eyed boy.

"Why is there a middle school kid in our class?" asked the boy.

The orange haired girl's eye twitched "middle school...kid??" she repeated angrily then sent a fireball at the purple eyed boy.

"Oh shot tempered? ya know some people find that really unattractive" asked the purple haired boy as he made a sword of darkness and sent it to counter the fireball.

"Class hasn't been going on for a minute and you two are already fighting" said Mrs. Yuki

The messy haired girl shook her head and looked at the purple eyed boy "you shouldn't judge someone based on their height" she said.

The orange haired girl and purple eyed boy ignored the Mrs. Yuki and the girl speaking to them. "I will burn you alive!" shouted the orange haired girl. In that instance she sent another fire ball at the purple eyed boy.

The boy made another blade of Darkness and countered it "woah there flame princess, its against school regulations to attack another student when not in sparring class" said the boy.

"I don't give a shiiiit!" said the orange haired girl sending another fire ball

"listen spaz could ya stop and learn to take a joke" said the purple eyed boy.

Mrs. Yuki cleared her throat which caught the two student's attention, now that she had their attention to looked back to the clip board in her hand. "Ahem, now that I have your attention I will begin roll call" said the teacher. The boy with ripped jeans sat behind the girl with orange hair at a window seat. "Carmen Igarashi?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"Here!" said the orange haired girl.

"Riku Yuki?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"Yes ma'am" said the boy with purple eyes.

"Akaze?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"Present" said the boy with grayish eyes

"Raiden Murasame?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"Yo" said the boy with ripped jeans and a gray hoodie.

"Lotus Ichinose?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"Alive and well" said the girl with untamed hair.

"Karma?" asked Mrs. Yuki

"don't wanna be here" said Mrs. Yuki

"good now that we have done roll call you may now take your seats....first and foremost I'd like to properly introduce myself. My name is Kira Yuki. I will be your teacher for the remainder of the year at Rose Academy. My magic is Gravity, and now that I've done that I'd like to go from the right side of the room to the left. You will stand up say your name, magic type, and one thing you like" said Mrs. Yuki

The first to go to the front of the class was the orange haired girl known as Carmen. As she walked to the front with pride in her step as she approached the front. The girl looked at the other students and cleared her throat. "My name is Carmen Igarashi, I use fire magic, and I like spicy foods," said Carmen. She then went back to her seat.

Next was the boy with the ripped jeans and gray hoodie known as Raiden, who just so happened to be the only one out of uniform. Almost like he didn't get the memo that he had to wear it on his first day of school. He reached the front and faced the other students "My name is Raiden Murasame, I use lightning magic, and I don't really have anything that I like" said Raiden.

After him was the boy in the way back who avoided every other student and snuck his way to the class. He sighed as he stood up and looked at everyone else as he made his way to the front. "My name is Karma Surado I have shadow magic, and I like to be alone" said Karma rather monotone.

Following up behind him was the boy that sat next to the girl with messy hair. He walked down to the front of the class as Karma went back to his seat. He stood before everyone and took a deep breath. "My name is Akaze, I use wind magic, and I like quiet spaces to read" said Akaze.

Last but not least was the girl with the messy hair she walked to the front while Akaze gawked at her. She didn't pay much attention and stood before everyone her anxiety kicked in as she started fidgeting. "M-my name is L-Lotus Ichinose, I use beast magic, and I like having my hair played with" she said shyly as a Tiger tail, and ears made themselves present. Lotus then made her way back to her seat.

"We have exactly 30 minutes before the opening ceremony, so in the meantime I'd like for you all to get to know each other with this icebreaker...find someone you think is interesting and ask the provided questions" said Mrs. Yuki as she made her way to each of the students handing them a paper with questions on it.
