"I'm going to end these guys!" A raging roar erupted from Keith. The dark and weary expression the man had was someone who worked every day without any breaks. But the strange twitching eyebrow overshadowed his tiredness. He wasn't alone in this as well.
"Ugh," "I want to throw up." "Someone get me a bag." "Why did it have to be us?!" Everyone in F-class was of the same sentiments as him; sprawled in their seats, they stared at the sky in contemplation. Should they fall asleep and get some rest or massage their feet to deal with fatigue? It was a tough choice.
They were run ragged from assisting all the other classes.
With slumped shoulders, “Sorry, you guys have to do this.” The only reason why they were run around so much was because of Keith's orders.
“It’s fine, Leader.”
“To see their faces when we helped them was worth it.” The students who bullied them were now asking them for help. They couldn’t hide their smugness as they worked. Those students didn't dare back talk either since they needed their assistance.
“Here are my final orders to you all; rest up! I want you guys to go to sleep for this free day!” Keith grinned. Three days of endless help would cause fatigue. Two days of rest should recover that.
“Understood, General!” F-class nodded as they left the classroom. Despite working the extra mile, they all left with a cheerful smile. They accomplished so much in these last few weeks. When Keith returned to his island, he was tackled by Mir and Lei!
"Po!" The little furballs sounded as they snuggled into him.
“I missed you guys as well.” Snuggles were the best. That was when Aria and Fira joined in as well!
"Hoo." "I missed you, Keith!"
"Me too!"
"Are you tired?" The little spirit questioned.
"Mmhmm! That's why I'll relax for the next two days!" A good night's rest should do the trick! After finishing his shower, he was greeted with a warm meal prepared by Diana. Before he had the chance to take a bite,
“Huh? Where are the others?” Sarah, Jack, and Arlo were here. The rest were still out.
“They said they won't be returning home today."
"They're still working on their stall?" Keith blinked. This was normal for these last few days as they had been going out. But it was only two days before the festival. What else do they need to build?
"They said they should be finished in these few days."
"Oh, well." Keith noticed the sun setting, but it was only an afterthought as he started to feast. It was expected since all of them were antsy about the festival. Final preparations were in order!
….
The day of the festival.
Everyone could see it all. There was a massive line of people before the academy gates. This scene was to be expected: a famous academy that was rich in talent; who would want to come here and attend a festival hosted by them?
All students were settled into their sections. Class F was huddled together as they stared at one another, “Is everyone ready?”
“Of course.”
“Wrong question. Is anyone nervous?”
“OF COURSE WE’RE NERVOUS!” Was that even a question?!
“General, did you not see the long lines in the front?! Do you know how many people there are?!” Those long lines would give anyone a fright.
"Yes. But we don't need to stress about it too much. They'll probably come at us in batches." There were many stalls set up each year. Despite his words, that didn't bring comfort to any of them. Some fidgeted around, while for others, their hands shook.
Keith noticed all of their anxiousness and concern. Guess I have to pull out a trump card.
"Everyone, Hamster Teach has something she wants to do for us."
“Eh?” Clara's round eyes blinked.
“Please grace us with the pats and tell us it will be okay.”
“Sure.” One by one, Clara walked over to each student, patting their heads and encouraging them.
...That was enough.
“Teach Clara is the best.”
“Okay. huddle up again!” Then, they got into a tighter huddle.
“We’re going in hot, and we’re going in strong! We’ll show them on the first day that F-class is the one to beat, am I right?!”
“Yeah!”
“Say it with me! We can do it! We can win! Win! Win! Win!”
While Keith continued to hype up F-class into victory, Cadmus stood before a podium to greet all the people who came.
“Greetings, everyone. I want to thank you all for coming to the Azure Festival this year. Our students have prepared many events and items, and we hope you all have a pleasant day here." It was the standard speech.
Aidiun muttered to Sohma, "It's been a long time since I have seen him like this."
"It's because he made a stall this year." He was being reasonable today.
“Let the azure lotus festival begin! With his big shout, confetti flew as the gates opened, letting the people in!
What do you think?
