"Teacher?" 

"Ashton...come out with me and the rest return to your dorms." The teacher said and with a clap both of them disspaered form there.

.

"Ashton!" Three of them said as they stood form their seats.

"Where did they vanish too?" Alfred said as he sighed.

.

"Your Highnesses, Young Grace aren't you being a little too protective towards him. He is not a kid he is already 13, he knows what he should do and our teacher won't hurt him." A kid form the class said as he bowed towards them.

.

"Who are you?" Harris asked as he looked at theta kid form top to bottom.

"I--"

"Whoever you are, you should know that Intrupting someone is not a bad habit futhermore we don't even know each other so, it would would better if you don't give us your free words." Alfred said as he took his books and left the room along with Harris and Alan.

.

"...I was just being genuine..." That kid said as he kicked Ashton's seat and left the classroom.

.

"Alfred you did the right thing by shutting him up...but he wasn't completely wrong. We are too protective of Ashton." Harris said as he stopped in his tracks so did the other two.

"He is a kid too and he has his privacy so shouldn't we give him some space?" 

.

"Harris you think we don't want that...the only reason we are like this is only because Irene...wished for it. She was worried for Ashton so she insured him to us and for thr 5 years we have seen with our own eyes how bad things can happen. So no matter what happens for the last 1 or 2 days bear it." Alan said as he walked towards the direction where Ash was waking to or more like troding.

.

"Ashton are you okay?" Alan asked as he stood before him while Ashton was still in daze.

"Hey? Did you fail the exam?" Harris asked as he smirked while putting his hand around his shoulders.

"Harris don't joke around. Ashton?" Alfred said as he looked at Ash who turned around and gave him a kick near his *thing*

.

"Ouch!! Ashton why was that for?" Harris shouted I pain while Ashton didn't reply to him and just walked past him. His attitude surprised the three of them almost to the extent that they were confused if it was really Ash or if they really crossed their line.

.

On the other hand, 

Ashton kept walking, walking and walking till he reached the end of the hallway. His breathing got rough and his eyes and head felt heavy.

"How could...this happen...?" Ashton talked to himself as he looked at his hands and then attbe mirror which was before him.

.

Flashback,

After that blast which surprised everyone, Ashton was now at edge as he feared not filling the exam but the aftermath of it which would mean that he wouldn't be able to attend Irene's debut ball for which he has been looking forward since ages.

.

"Teacher...I made a great mistake...didn't I?" Ashton asked as he looked at how serious his expressions was.

"Ashton...you belong to the winter family right? The one which is famous for its craft." He asked out of blue.

.

"Yes sir, I belong to that winter family...but why are suddenly asking me this?" 

"Hmm, but your family wasn't always a crafting family right? If I remmbe coreect your grandfather was a knight...not only a smiple knight but a renowned knight who fought along side the previous emperor." The teacher said as both of them reached to the end corner of the corridors where a hidden door was located.

.

"Everything sir said is indeed true...but it's surprising...not many people remmber grandfather.. not to mention even I learned about it few years ago." 

"The teachers of royal academy know everything that has happened at the land of Solar not to mention people like tour grandfather, we can never forget them *opens the door* come inside." 

.

"I feel pleased to know how much you value the people who has been long forgotten by the present generation...but sir why have you bought me here? And what us this place?" Ashton who was now a little alarmed about his surroundings said as he looked around the room which was more like a cabinet. 

.

The room was dull but clean enough with the smell of freshly painted paint, books stacked up at the wooden table which was located beife him and lots of scrolls, stones, gadgets which he has never seen before were kept in order at thr shelf.

.

And the most fascinating thing there was the big crystal ball which looked very special and different form the ones they were given at the classroom.

"Ashton, are you interested at that ball?" The teacher asked as he smiled and Ashton nodded his head as he felt quite attracted towards that crystal.

.

"Well then would you like to try it?" 

"Ye--No! what if it blows away too?" Ashton said as he shook his head.

"...Well, and what if I say...if you won't try to concentrate here then I will make you stay here for another year." The teacher said and Ashton without any second thought stoof up form his seat and walked towards the ball.

.

"I will try but ....if it's blows away then please don't blame me." Ashton said as he closed his eyes and coserntrated all his power at the center of this hands and a bright light surrounded the room.

Ashton who got panicked opened his eyes afraid that the ball will blast too but much to his surprise something he never saw beifre came out of that ball...

.

It was just for a second but he saw that thing clearly...his shiny wide wings and his golden body with his green eyes which matched with his.

"My Master" That thing said and went straight into Ashton's body.

.

"Ahh! *cough* *cough* what was that?" Ashton said as he touched his heart which was beating at the speed of light and his body felt warm.

"Ashton drink this, you will feel better." The teacher said as he gave him a small blue portion which had soem shiny things inside it.

.

"What is this? Are you trying to harm me?" Ashton who was now quite confused and Annoyed asked as he stood up with swear dripping off his head said as his vision for blurry.

"I am not doing to harm you, this is a cold portion I'd you drink this then the heat you are feeling would calm down, believe me...or else you won't last for even 5 minutes." He said and Ashton snatched the bottle form his hand and dranked all of it in one single gulp.

.

"Good boy..."

After sometime Ashton calmed down, the teacher took the first step to break the ice.

"So are you interested in knowing what just happened?" 

"....What do you think?..." 

"Well, if I was in your place I would have hit the person next to me if he didn't tell me what's going on." 

.

"Luckily, you are my teacher." Ashton said as he drank the water he was given.

"Hmm, I understand...Ashton, have you heard about the legend of this Academy?" 

"...I did...you are looking for the Owner of the spiritual sprit here which is why the academy does this exam every 5 years that too for free." 

.

"Well you are all ear...then do you believe in that legend? Do you believe the sun God has really left a small amount of his spirit here?" 

The teacher asked and Ashton kept getting werid vibes but the seriousness on his teacher's face forced him to answer him

.

"...Honestly, I don't know...about that spirit but I can feel the high amount of spiritual power here." 

"You are very logical, I see...well, what if O say that spirit has now found its owner...*Ash stiffness up* and that person is no other other you." The teacher said and Ashton chocked on the water.

.

*cough* *cough*

"Spirit...Owner me? Teacher what are you taking about? I am not even a royal and my spiritual power is almost Nil."

"Ashton, this Power is different form the ones of royals....because the holder of this power would always be loyal to the royal. And believe it or not but the thing that entered your body not long ago was the spirit of the 'flying lion' and you are his owner, the protector of Solar." The teacher said as he bowed towards him.

.

"Sir...This must be a mistake. I am a normal human...not to mention I came to the academy only because of the mana present here. My body is weaker then others....so how could something so powerful chosse me? This must be a mistake." Ashton said as he looked at his teacher.

"But Ashton, no matter how weak you think yourself as....this power has chosen you so it belongs to you." The teacher said while Ashton kept on denying it until he felt a thug in his heart which made him kneel on the ground.

.

"Ouch!" 

"Ashton control your emotions, and stop denying the spirit...or else you will keep being in pain.." The teacher said as he patted his shoulders.
