Angel’s Haven Academy

(Excerpt from "Angel's Haven Academy for Young Flyers," The Lock on Heaven; an original and unfinished novel by me)

"We've... Been accepted?"

Tanaka Aoki. A fairly average boy, who hates using energy in anything. That's what he made himself seem like.

He took on the identity of someone who was unworthy to "grow his wings" because he didn't want to, and neither did Zhou Delun.

Zhou Delun was beautiful. Especially to Aoki, who has been in love with him for years. He was kind, and would be top of his class if he put effort into it.

Aoki was more of so the athletic type, who had the the speed and reflexes, while Delun was the brains and strategy. They worked so well together.

"There's no way, did they see through us?" Delun was practically fusing with Aoki with how close they were, staring at the acceptance letters sent to both of them.

There wasn't a particular reason that they didn't want to go. They simply just didn't want to go.

They didn't care about "growing their wings" or "ascending" or whatever terms they used in that academy.

Delun sighed. "Well, it's not that bad."

"I don't want them to seperate us."

"Neither do I." Aoki and Delun said solemnly.

They've been buddy buddy for years. Who knows if that'll still be possible in the Academy of the Sky?

"Even if they seperate us, I'll just come see you. I always find you, yeah?" Delun joked, cheering Aoki up.

"Yeah. You know me a little too well," Aoki laughed. "Okay, let's sign the letters then."

They shouldn't of had signed the letters.

If Aoki told Delun to not sign the letter and to stay with him, then they never would've been in this hellhole.

"Angel's Haven Academy my ass... What is this?!"

The corpse in front of them was a warning sign that they made the wrong choice.
