Lotte Chapter 11
"The Mystic with the Message"
(The New Leaf Acadmy in Greenhill City)


I walked off with Ayame and was taken on a tour of all of Greenhill City. I was taken to all the places. Shown all the sites. Ayame told me that Greenhill was known for they're many rumemasters and blacksmiths.

"What classes are you gonna take Lotte?" Ayame asked

"All of them" I said

"Ack! All of them? I dunno how your gonna keep up girl" she said rolling her eyes.

"I can do it! I bet you all the potch I have I can!" I yelled

"I can't take you money, but I will bet you, if you can't do every course in the school in two weeks then you have to um...Do my homework for a week!" cried Ayame

"Ack! You mean like pass them all in a week, or not make a fool of myself by not being able to do the task?"

"By not being able to do the task," she said "Well I guess we should go back, come on I'll take you to the dorm your sleeping in"

I followed in step behind her and stared at the sky, I thought about weather I could do the task. I knew I could but I thought about weather I would end up being a success, or me burning down the school. I didn't really care but I would have to be careful. Finally we had made it to the dorms. Ayame told me to follow her in. There was a girl at the desk inside.

"Michalle can you get her a dorm?" asked Ayame

"Sure Ayame, but where do you wanna put her there are only three rooms upstairs that are in fact not taken" said Michalle

"Well that one girl in my room is moving out maybe she can have that room" replied Ayame "Besides I think her stuff is packed too, I'll run up and check"

Ayame had ran up stairs and had checked. I was told to wait here and stay at the desk. Michalle tried to help me find a room that was not taken. I waited about ten minutes and then finally Ayame came down with the status of the room.

"Yeah she is out now, so I guess Lotte can have her old part of the room" she said with a smile

"Very well I guess she can, Lotte please take you things up to room 6 Please" replied Michalle

I followed orders and head to the room. I follow behind Ayame to see the room I was about to live in for awhile.

"This is pretty nice! I think I'm gonna like it here!" I cried

Ayame smiled, and then helped my unpack the stuff in my backpack. Mina and Momo went to explore the room, and to see how much space they had. I pulled out my stuff and then placed it on shelves and cabinets. By then time I was done, it was time for bed. I looked at Ayame and wish her a good night. I jumped into bed and fell asleep.

2 hours before school...

"Ack! I'm late! What time is it! Oh jeez, I knew I slept in!" I cried

Ayame yawned "Lotte it's 6 am do you mind? We don't have to go to school till 8 am"

"Oh okay then, I thought we were late my mistake"

I looked confused, but I decided not to fight it, I fell back asleep.

Next Morning...

"Ack! I'm late! Oh not now!" I yelled.

I looked around to see that Ayame had left already. I got dressed and rush out the door. I walked outside to see the students of Greenhill all looking at me.

"Eh?" I thought, "why they looking at me like that?"

I passed by them all and entered the building. I looked at my sheet with the classes on it and them headed to the Blacksmith Workshop. I walked in and found out that I was the only girl. There were two Blacksmiths in the school, Master Jude and Master Dean. Just my luck I ended up in master Dean's room.

"So you are Lotte? I heard you are the girl who wanted to take every class? If its so well then enjoy failing them all" Dean said

I looked pissed "Fail? Fail?! How dare he say that!" I thought "Its like no one thinks I can do it! I'll prove I can"

Master Dean handed me the hammer and asked me to try and fix his sword. I tried lifting the hammer but well...

*Bam! *

I had fallen backward with the hammer on top of me.

"Little help!" I cried

As unfair as this was everyone in the class looked and me and laughed. No one bothered to help me. I tried to uses my magic to lift the hammer. I started to use it and again everyone stared at me. Some students started to whisper the word "Mystic"

I looked at everyone. "Mystic?" I thought "That is a race of people who live forever? I'm not one of them? Am I...?"

I watched everyone wiser and look at me. I didn't understand much of the mystic race. I knew that there were not many that lived in this world. But I didn't understand why I was being called mystic. I looked at everyone once more and then left the room in tears. I left my bag and ran like hell out of the school. I then stopped at the near by tree and sat down. Ayame came to comfort me.

"Oh Lotte are you okay? I heard what they said; I personally don't believe them at all. I just think you're a little different, but then again that is what I liked about you!" said Ayame "Don't listen to them okay? There just big assholes who are jealous of your power"

I looked at Ayame and smiled

"At least she doesn't think I'm a freak..." I thought

"Come on Lotte! Its time for lunch!" Ayame said grabbing my and hand and whipping me up.

"Where do we go?" I asked

Ayame dragged me to the cafeteria where we were suppose to eat. I looked at her and then she showed me what to do.

"Okay just take one of those trays and then just fill it with food" she answered

I walked along the line grabbing almost everything in front of me. Again I was stared at, but this time they laughed at me because I had taken everything on the menu. I walked over to a table and sat down. I looked at my food and then began to wolfed it down. I the people looked at me and said things like "God! She looked like she has never eaten in her life!" or "PIG! Why the hell did you take all of it?"

After eating everything on my tray, the students started to make fun of me some more.

"Are you gonna stuck my blood mystic? hahahahhahah!" one boy said.

I looked at him and this time and walked up to him and grabbed his throat with my hands.

"Bah! What are you doing?" the boy cried

"You bastard! Shut the hell up! I have had it with being made fun of just because I am a mystic!" I yelled

I got so mad I ended up changing everyone in the cafeteria into a frog (other then Ayame). I walked out of the room with my head high. School so far was a nightmare! I never understood what was wrong with begin a mystic. I mean sure they are different race, but I'm more from a mystic descent.

I then got yelled at by one of the teachers for changing everyone into frogs, I just looked at him and changed him into one as well. I walked back to the dorms and went to my room. I walked into my room and cried on my pillows. I cried over the fact that I was different and I was getting treated badly because I was in fact a mystic.

Ayame came into the room and comforted me. She told me that I would not have to put up with this long. She told me about her first days. I listened and then still cried. I didn't understand why they would just pick on someone for one little problem. I knew that I was not gonna last long here at all….
