(Red Fountain,Saladin's Office)

“Since you're here,I trust that you've read the message that young Trevor here gave you. Did you read it?” asked the principle of the school in a calm manner while having an air of authority around him,without meaning to which could intimidate even Cordatorta who now holds the position as The Lord of the Fortress of Light.

“Well...um..er Headmaster I.” Saladin interrupted him “Don't worry Rylon,but I suggest you read the message now.”said Saladin with a slightly disgruntled tone in his voice. Rylon opened the envelope to read it's contents. He found a small collection of status reports from scouts but they were really short.

Status Report 1:

We were scouting the northeastern area of the Black-Mud Swamp to investigate a rumour of a wild beast making droning noises,our team consisted of 4 Specialists,2 males and 2 females,myself accounted along with 2 others who were bounty hunters. We began by entering the swamp through different entrances of to ensure that we won't be detected,Specialists Team and the Hunter Teams. Low grumbling noises were heard when we continued through a strangely convenient path,the ground seemed as if a large machine trampled on it to smooth it out,we suspected that it wasn't a beast at all.

Rylon looked perplexed at the report before he turned his sights to Saladin. “Read on,there's more.” Saladin said in a softer nodded before continuing reading the other reports...

Status Report 2:

As our team advanced further into the swamp,we encountered no monsters or creatures at all. It appeared that all life in Black-Mud Swamp had disappeared,but we continued,hearing more droning noises as we moved towards its source. We saw a pixie mole,it was looking for something perhaps food but before we even considered giving it some of our rations,it was captured in an energy-net(1).We waited for a hunter to come out but instead 3 men dressed in strange uniforms carrying some sort of rifles. We decided to follow them to find out what's going on.

Status Report 3:

We've managed to sneak into their camp without detection but our cover was blown as the 2 bounty hunters came in giving death threats to the men who retaliated,we had no choice but to assist the bounty hunters,despite our orders,the hunters used lethal weapons instead of stun-class weapons. One by one the enemy were brought down but were unfortunately killed. We released the captured animals but some of the creatures were dead,experimented on perhaps. We buried the dead,including the body of the enemy. After that we collected their equipment for analyzing and arrested the hunters for insubordination.

“Well,what do you think?” asked Saladin in a sincere tone. “This has got to be a joke,right?” Rylon asked with a little bit of worry. “Unfortunately,no for the first time in 1500 years,students of Red Fountain took the life of person.” said the headmaster with a hint of remorse.

(2 Hours Later,Aboard the 'Starlight')

“Sir!The 15th Militia unit will be arriving through 'Gravitic Warp' in 2 minutes.”said the communications officer “Good,any status report on the investigation teams?” asked Admiral Heinmann before he sipped his cup of coffee. “Well,most of the units have returned with specimens for studies but team 5 didn't came back ....and are believe to be no longer alive.” stuttered the officer. “What!How did this happened?” Andrew was shocked at the news as the officer stammered,unable to describe the cause of the death of 6 crew-members.

“What will be our course of action sir?” “Huh?Who said that?” Andrew along with the rest of the crew on the bridge turned to the source of the voice and saw Master Sargeant Jacob Cain,Andrew Heinmann's nephew. “Sorry about that Commander.” replied Jacob in a disciplined attitude,despite the commander being his uncle. “Come now nephew,no need to be serious.” said Andrew in a faked cheerful tone. “Sir,now is not the time for this,we could be facing a war between the inhabitants of the this dimension and our Pangalactic Federation,which is still recovering from the Enforcer Incident so strict discipline is a must in times like this. I will back on my ship if you require my help.” replied Jacob in an annoyed tone of voice before exiting the bridge heading off towards the transporter which will transfer him back to his ship the 'Diplo II'(2).

(Cloud Tower,Miss Griffin's office)

“Miss Griffin,a messenger from Red Fountain is here to see you. Shall I let him in?” asked Ediltrude who had no classes to teach today. “Hmm,a messenger from Red Fountain eh. Very well send him in.” answered Lamina Griffin. “Yes Headmistress.” replied Ediltrude before exiting the room.

(Moments Later)

Trevor Pyris entered the room with messenger's bag on him,he picked out a message disc and gave it to Miss Griffin before making his way to the open window which oddly enough,was where his WindRider set on auto-pilot waiting for him in midair,Trevor was about to jump out but before he did,Miss Griffin asked “Would you like some refreshments young man?”

Trevor smiled and said “Don't mind if I do. Oh yeah,before I forget.”Trevor whistle and his vehicle responded by activating a recorder,then he began a message.: “Good day Miss Faragonda,I was assigned to deliver you a message but due to circumstances,my WindRider has the message in the compartment below the recorder as WindRider will return to me after you remove the envelope.” Trevor removed a similar envelope from his bag and placed it inside a compartment in the recorder and set a course for Alfea into the vehicle.

Lamina Griffin looked in interest as Trevor typed in the coordinates. After that,the vehicle sped off in the direction of Alfea. “Clever trick,huh? I made it myself.” Trevor was hoping for a compliment as he smiled at the sweets that was presented to him. “Clever indeed,...Trevor Pyris was it?” Lamina remembered an incident when Trevor first visited the school an invitation was delivered by him to a witch who at that time was his girlfriend but something happened.......

Flashback

“Come on Vidia,it'll be fun.” a 16 year old Trevor pleaded to a young girl with violet hair. “I'm sorry Trevor but the school rules say that a witch can't go to an Alfean dance,ever.” Vidia replied with regret. “Don't worry, the invitations say that Cloud Tower was also invited and I already have permission from Miss Griffin,so please,pretty please with those blood red cherries that you like on top.” Trevor's begging act was so adorable even a cold hearted person couldn't resist. “Alright Trevor,see you tonight.” with that Vidia kissed Trevor on his cheek before she walked off humming a tune that other witches would never do.

Later that night,Trevor came on his WindRider waiting for Vidia. Suddenly he heard a scream that was all too familiar,he pulled out his energy sword and ran towards the source of the scream. When he reached there,he saw 4 senior witches surrounding Vidia . “Stupid little girl,how dare you disobey our unwritten code,you shame us witches by going to that,that Dance! With a Specialists no less We'll show you what we do to traitors of the code!” All four witches casted a forbidden spell which destroys it's victims by destroying their mind and body inside and out but before Trevor could shield Vidia in time,he was too late,she was gone as her body laid in his lap,here eyes blank and her body unmoving.

“Look what we have here,fellow witches. That traitor's boyf-” but before she could finish her sentence,her chest was punctured by a quick stab from Trevor's sword instantly killing her. The other three looked upon Trevor in horror,he changed,his eyes were glowing in an eerily dark sinister glow and his body gave off a fiery red aura and with his mind in turmoil for one moment he said “Why...Why....did....you...WHY DID YOU DO IT!!!!!” and with that he physically transformed into a creature of legend, “Fire Knight”(3)and mercilessly attacked the remaining three witches. In the morning,they found Trevor covered in blood crying over Vidia's body,any evidence of the Fire Knight's presence were all but gone except for it's sword,it's hilt was a strange design with wavy etches similar to fire,the same goes for the blade itself,it radiated a fiery aura of intense heat that no one could even hold it without burning themselves except for the Fire Knight and it's Lord whose name was lost centuries ago. After that incident,Trevor managed to recover through therapy but the legendary sword was locked in a special case and sealed away inside Red Fountain. Although the three witches somehow managed to survive the Fire Knight's wrath,they also recovered and now remain at the Fortress of Light going through intense purification and protection from the Fire Knight's unforgiving temper.

End Flashback
“So Mr Pyris,how's Saladin been doing nowadays?” Lamina poured Trevor a cup of tea while they discussed about current affairs of the two schools.(Alfea)

“Miss Griselda,there's something approaching the school.”exclaimed one of the students. “I think it's a WindRider but there's no rider on it,do you think a ghost is riding it ?” “What!” yelled Griselda before rushing out to see a familiar WindRider speeding towards the school. “I've should've known,Mr Pyris' auto-delivery.”said Griselda in an annoyed tone.

“What is with all the commotion out here?” Shara Faragonda asked as she came out to see the students talking among themselves loudly but they became silent as a vehicle landed in front of her. The machine inside the hovercycle started: “Good Day Miss Faragonda,I was assigned to deliver you a message but due to circumstances,my WindRider has the message in it's compartment below the recorder as usual. The WindRidder will return to me after you remove the envelope.”the message then ended before an envelope popped out into Shara's hands. After that,the hovercycle rose into the sky and sped off to its owner.
