The physics teacher just left the class as the students began with their discussion.
"So how was your boring section with Esmeralda". Valarie asked as she sat on Korra's table and Oona stood behind her.
"It was not boring as I thought it will be". Korra answered as she closed her note book.
"Really". Oona replied in a surprised tone.
"Uh-huh, infact we did lots of things together and she had a brother,two actually".
"Shut-up, she has two brothers,not one but two". Valarie spoke with a fake suprise accent which made the girls laugh.
"Yap".
"So,tell me how he looks like, is he handsome". Valarie asked
"Cute". Oona followed.
"Adorable". Valarie added.
"You guys are not ok". They all laughed,then their history teacher entered the class.
"Good day class". Mr John greeted.
"Good day sir". The class greeted as they went on to take their seat.
"I am back again,but this time I brought ancient objects with me". He then started placing the objects on the table, they looked old and new at the same time.
"How can something so old look so new". Valarie said to herself. "Isn't that suppose to be in the museum or something".
"Now these are old objects used in the past,they were used for magic, spells and even at wars". He picked up a kettle. "This one is popular because...."
"A genie is inside and once you rob it you get three wishes". Valarie interrupted.
"Correct..... But this is a kettle that was used by a royal family". He explained.
"Of course it is". Valarie said to herself.
"Cady please come forward". Mr John called out as Cady stood up and gave her an Egyptian cat statue. "This is what the Egyptians represent as their pets, they used it as something that brings good and bad luck. Lucas". He called as Lucas came forward then he gave him a staff. "This is what the king used as a sign of respect to others. Korra". She stood up and he gave her a dagger as she showed it to the class. "This object is used in killing their enemies and also used to put someone in eternal sleep. Years ago it was used by the king who used it against his wife because she betrayed him". While he was explaining Korra saw a writing on the dagger. Death upon the enemy it's being used on.
"What does that mean". Korra said to herself.
"So those are the objects am going to show for now". Mr John said as he moved towards the table as he was about to collect the objects from the students he accidentally knocked down a tiny pot and some powder poured out and landed on Korra.
"AHH". Korra started dusting herself.
"Oh I'm sorry, are you okay". Mr John gave her a napkin.
"Yh,I'm fine". Korra smiled as she continued dusting the powder from her uniform. Mr John then collected the objects from them and told them to go to their seat as he closed the small pot that spilled. Korra was walking to her seat and was listening to the rest of his class, then she started feeling woozy. She rubbed her eyes but it didn't help, she stood up to take permission form the teacher when the class started spinning and she fell, Lucas hurried to her side.
"Korra,Korra wake up".
"Korra are you okay,hey talk to me". Valarie held her face as she shook her a little.
"Let's take her to the school clinic". Mr John spoke as Lucas lifted her and they went to the school clinic.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Lucas,Oona and Valarie were waiting outside the school clinic, the girls had a worried expression, Valarie was more into why she fainted all of a sudden.
"What's taking them so long". Valarie was already frustrated because Korra has been their and now it's recess.
"Calm down, we have to be patient". Oona spoke.
"Patient,patient about what, she has been their for to long and I don't know why they won't let us in but Mr John".
"Don't worry she'll be fine". Lucas finally spoke. After what feels like seconds the nurse finally came out.
"Your friend is fine now and you may now come in". The nurse said,which made them sigh in relief but Valarie was just looking at the nurse.
"Are you new here, I've never seen you before". Valarie spoke all of a sudden.
"Valarie". Oona called in a whisper.
"Yes I'm new here, my name is Cynthia". The new said as she smiled.
"Okay, can go see her now". Oona spoke, nurse Cynthia gave a nod and opened the door for them, they saw Korra lying on the bed with Mr John next to her. "Is she okay".
"Yes, she's fine". He assured them.
"What made her pass out". Lucas asked.
"I don't know, maybe school stress". He said but Valarie wasn't buying any of it. "I'll take my leave now". He then excused himself.
"Poor Korra, I hope she'll be okay". Oona said with a little sadness in her voice then Lucas held her shoulder and gave her a reassuring smile. Valarie sigh and looker around, then she saw a ring at the table next to Korra it looked like the one Mr John was wearing she walked to the table and picked it up and examined it. "What's that".
"I don't know it's a ring". Valarie said still looking at it, then Korra Started opening her eyes.
"She's waking up". Oona announced as they all surrounded her bed. Korra opened her eyes and everything was blurry, she blinked a few more times before everything was now clear, she looked around and saw they Oona, Lucas and Valarie were all looking at her.
"What happened". She asked as she held her aching head while sitting up with Oona support.
"You passed out during class". Lucas answered first.
"What, that doesn't sound right". Korra said still confused.
"What Lucas is trying to say is if you were fine this morning, were you stressed or probably having stage fright". Oona spoke up.
"Neither, I was fine, I was listening to his class when everywhere was dizzy".
"Huh, I think we've got a little mystery in our hands". Valarie said as they were looking at her. "What, I'm not lying".
School was already over as students were trolling out of their classes and discussing while Korra's friends were dragging her stuff thinking she might pass out again.
"Please give me my stuff back, I'm fine". Korra pleaded.
"We're not hearing anything until we follow you home safely so you don't faint on the way". Valarie said with a little grin.
"But....".
"No-uh, you're not going alone, and I won't take no for an answer, besides this is my first step in my investigation".
"I think your in over your head Valarie". Oona answered.
"Am I". Valarie was grining from ear to ear, while Korra just rolled her eyes. "Who I forgot something at the clinic".
"What did you forget". Oona asked.
"My pen and to also return this ring that I found". Valarie said as she showed them the gold ring and gave Korra's bag to Oona. "Don't give this to her I'll be right back".
"Okay, hurry up". Valarie then rushed to the clinic she was about to open the door when she heard the nurses voice and a man.
"What do you mean you lost the ring". The man shouted.
"Am sorry, I didn't mean to lose it". Nurse Cynthia apologized.
"You're useless, but never mind it's of no use, it's not like anyone knows about it". The man sigh. Valarie moved to the window to looked but could only see the man's back, she then looked at the ring in her hand and decided to hold onto it for now. She then purposely knocked at the door, she planed on barging in but there no other places for them to go to.
"It looks like someone is coming". Nurse Cynthia said in a low tone, the man nodded. "Come in". She said and Valarie entered but to her surprise she didn't she the man.
"But how's that possible, did he disappear". She thought and started surveying the room for any possible hidden door.
"Are you looking for something". Nurse Cynthia asked.
"Uhmmm yes, I forgot my pen". Valarie returned her focus and went to the table and picked up her pen. " Thanks".
"No problem". The nurse smiled as she watched Valarie leave the room, when the door closed she dropped her smile.
Valarie was walking back to her friends still thinking of what she heard and saw, she couldn't believe that a man she saw, and was one hundred percent sure that there was no other door in that room suddenly disappeared. It didn't make sense to her, as she was thinking she bumped into Kelvin.
"Woah, careful". Kelvin spoke as her called out her attention.
"Am sorry".
"Are you okay, you look stressed out".
"Am.....". She was about to answer when she was interrupted by Korra.
"There you are, we've been waiting for you".
"Sorry guys, I didn't mean to keep you waiting".
"C'mon, let's go before Korra try to run away from me". Oona said as she held Valarie's hand and dragged her along leaving Kelvin alone as he watched Valarie leave along with the girls.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Korra came down from the car with her friends as well, as the marched into Korra's home, her sister then ran towards Korra to greet her.
"Welcome back sis". Molly have her a hug she then saw Korra's friends. "Hi".
"Hello". Valarie and Oona returned the greeting.
"Come in". Molly said as she gave them room to enter.
"That won't be necessary". Valarie spoke.
"Huh, how come". Molly asked.
"We only came to excort your sister so she doesn't pass out again". Oona answered as Korra placed her hand on her forehead and sighed.
"Passed out?".
"Don't worry she'll tell you everything, bye". Oona waved as the girls walked out of the house and Molly looked at her sister.
"What happened?".
"It's nothing serious".
"C'mon,tell me".
"Okay". Korra gave up, then she walked to the couch and sat down, her sister was looking at her closely waiting for her to speak. Korra explained everything starting from when she was done with physics call to history.
"So you passed out because of boredom". Molly said as thought about the situation.
"I didn't pass out because of boredom,I just don't know what happened".
"Or could it be because of the items".
"I don't know, let's just drop it".
"Okay, hurry and go and change the movie is about to start". Molly said as the held the remote.
"Ohh now you tell me". Korra said sarcastically as Molly laughed.
Deep in the night Korra was having what seems like a nightmare. She saw her self in an unfamiliar place, a woman was running and ran passed Korra with what looked like guard after her. The next she sees the same woman held by the guard and a tall man walked up to her and held a dargger and went towards the woman. Korra woke up screaming, she looked around and saw that she was in her, that's one relief. Seconds later her parents opened her door.
"What happened,why did you scream like that". Her mother sat on her bed as she held a shivering Korra.
"I saw..... A woman..... In my... She seemed frightened.... She was running... He was holding a dargger and...". Korra was trying to explain but she was having a herd time calming down, she was so scared she didn't understand why she had that kind of dream.
"Ahhh, it's okay, your okay". Her calmly spoke as she pat her head and giving her a hug.
"Do you need anything". Molly spoke, Korra looked up and saw her siblings were also in her room, now she feels bad for waking them up too.
"Get her water". He father spoke as Molly rushed to get the water, second later she brought it and gave it to their father who gave it Korra to drink. "Better".
"Yes, thank you dad". Korra gave him the glass as calmed herself down.
"Try to sleep now, you can tell us what dream you had when you feel like okay". Her dad said as Korra nodded. He then stood up when Korra spoke.
"Please don't go". Korra begged.
"Okay, I'll stay with you sweetheart". Her mother spoke as she lied on Korra's bed while the others went to their room.
"Thanks mom". Korra thanked as her mother held her tight in response.
