Chapter 21: W1(15)
Jack already knew the song, he knew every single preference of Jerry's, and thinking now about it, he wondered if Jerry did too.
The song started out with a normal beat but suddenly increased to a rocking tone, it was an interesting song and one of Jerry's favorites.
Jerry was worried at first that Jack wouldn't know the song but seeing him playing it perfectly, his worries turned to relief, once again Jack had surprised in pleasantly! Keep it up boi! And I might just forgive you by the end of today.
'Were a thousand miles from comfort....'
Jerry started, and silence fell, except for the beautiful background tone that Jack's piano was emitting.
His slender fingers were as if tailor-made for playing pianos as they maneuvered fluently through each piano key with no obstructions, the music's tone was captivating and made one unconsciously tap their foot to the rhythm.
Jerry's voice was simply stunning. It was a crisp, sweet voice breaching between feminine and masculine, the voice was clear and sharp but at the same time gentle and calm inducing like a warm spring breeze.
His voice was so good that the class was sure that even a trash song could win an Oscar with the voice. He opened his mouth as a sweet melody flowed, he seemed to be enjoying himself as he was moving his body according to the music.
'We had traveled land and sea, but as long as you're with me, there's no place I'll rather be.'
'I would wait forever, Exalted in the scene~'
'As long as I am with you, my heart continues to beat~'
[Chorus]
'With every step we take, Kyoto to the bay, strolling so casually~'
'We're different at the same, gave you another name, switch up the batteries~'
If you gave me a chance I'd take it~
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it~
Know with all of your heart you can't shame me~
When I'm with you, there's no place I'll rather be~
N-n-no no}
No place I'll rather be~} *3
Jerry walked up and down the stage, singing as the euphoria started getting to him, he glanced at Jack every now and then and their eyes met every time! It was like, Jack had always been staring at him.
He flushed at the thought, he was probably overthinking it, he winked at Jack who only gave him a helpless smile in exchange before he spun again to the rhythm of the song.
The students had gone mad, cheering heavily at them and Arthur couldn't hide the stun on his face as he watched the teen geniuses marvel him, too bad it was ordered against posting any school activity to outsiders or face punishment.
'We staked out on a mission~'
Jean started while the student fans clapped along to the rhythm of the song and even at that the song was still just as good or maybe even better.
'To find our inner peace.'
'Make it everlasting, so nothing's incomplete~'
'It's easy being with you, sacred simplicity~~~!'
Jerry suddenly increased the tone with a high pitch earning wows from the crowd.
'As long as we're together, there's no place I'll rather be~'
[Chorus~]
Some students wanted to join in the chorus, but drowning their precious singer's wonderful voice in their not-so-good voices, they decided to stick to clapping along with the song.
]Chorus~]
'When I am with you, there's no place I'll rather be~.'
Jerry said, finalizing the music and ending it with Jack playing the last tune of the song as he gave one lasting crazy dance move, and their performances were finished.
The students all stood up, cheering like crazy, soon their name was heard throughout the class, and the teacher had to calm the students down for the next performer.
After lessons, Arthur praised the students for work well done and told them that their performances had earned them a free 10 marks making the students cheer in happiness.
He gave Jerry and Jack extra 3 marks for being the best performers and then called the rooster, a few students hadn't attended class and punishment had lost 10 marks, what a shame for them.
After lessons most students surrounded Jack and Jerry while praising them, some were asking for their contact details and others asked for friendship (both kinds).
Dina was used to this as she was quite popular during her school days and handled it exceptionally while glancing worriedly at Jack to see him staring at her again!
Jerry flushed before facing off, he was about to maneuver his way from the crowd to leave the class when a strong hand grasped him, it was a male with long red hair tied in a ponytail and pretty red eyes.
He was lean but muscular and quite tall, around Jack's height or a bit taller, fair in complexion, and very hot.
He was handsome and his whole aura screamed princely, Jerry didn't need a narrator to tell him that this dude was an alpha, and an awakened one at that!
Ancients and Pures always awakened their alpha/omega/beta age 17-18 years. At that time they had their first rut/heat and for betas, they just have a few abnormalities, like falling ill, mood swings, outbursts of emotions, and for some especially dominant betas, they may just randomly start going berserk, fighting anyone they see or destroying wherever they were, etc.
During those times, even drugs wouldn't be able to hold down the Ancient, whether omega/alpha/beta. Omegas would tend to want to jump at alphas, same with alphas while betas' symptoms were really random.
Drugs wouldn't be able to hold them down because that was also the time that they awakened their spiritual energy, traces of this energy would be around them before awakening but after awakening the energy would fully burst out and that was why awakened Ancients usually get special training to control their spiritual energy or shit might just get down.
An example was if your spiritual energy was the type that was destructive, then without control you could go around shattering, breaking, and destroying things mistakenly.
But if you successfully controlled your spiritual energy, you would be able to control your power too as spiritual energy is used to control powers.
Yes, during the time of the awakening, not only do spiritual powers, cycles, and others awaken, but Ancients also awaken powers, their special power. This was one of the major reasons drugs can't tame awakeners, it was advised to lock them up in a room or something until the awakening stops.
It also should be noted that the longer the awakening time the higher the possibility of awakening a powerful ability.
Even omegas, as during those periods they could turn to maniac beasts looking for their alphas, could only be tame if an alpha laid them, and so was an alpha.
Therefore, for safety's sake and to prevent unwanted pregnancies, it was seriously advised to just lock 'em up as drugs CANNOT tame them.
That was why finding your child's gender was needful, you could find it at any age, even as babies, and get ready for their awakening moment...
In all this, there was a unique circumstance that even you as a parent wouldn't be able to control, and that is EARLY AWAKENING.
Early awakening was a rare case that happened in about one in ten Ancients, it was mostly seen in Pures as they were the ones with the purest bloodline, therefore awakening early wasn't a surprise, but forAncients who awakened early, they tend to be the closest in power to the Pures.
All cases of early awakening had the ancients involved in awakening a very powerful and rare ability that was second to the Pures' abilities, some were even rumored to be hand in hand with some of Pures' powers, but then again it was only rumored that hadn't been confirmed.
How did Jerry know that this guy was an early awakened? It was simple... he was very sensitive to spiritual energy, cycles, etc.
And he could feel how steady and full this guy's spiritual energy was, if it was a non-awakened, there'd only be traces and it'd be fluctuating which was the opposite of this guy's... which meant that he was an Early Awakened, but why was he stopping him?
Jerry knew this guy's name, his performance was good, really good, he would have even gotten first in the performance but he and Jack had overshadowed him... was it why...…?
"Yes?" Jerry asked politely.
"Em..., can we meet at the cafeteria, during break period?" the boy said excitedly.
"Well..." Jerry sighed in relief in his mind that the guy wasn't into starting troubles, he really hated arguments, he thought about it and felt no issue, as he was about to reply...
"No he won't," Jack said rudely.
"Why?" the displeased red-hair asked
"Because... we're going somewhere during that time, right Jer?" Jack asked while facing Jerry.
Jerry sweat-dropped, what to do???
