Several days have passed since Luke met Gia. Their relationship has improved these days. He finally met a girl he could watch a movie with focusing on the damn movie.
Gia had similar tastes to him in video games and series. She could be considered an otaku. Their conversations were much more interesting and fun than with the other girls he’d been with this past while.
Also, they hadn’t had sex. Just a few kisses. Luke’s opinion of Gia grew. She wasn’t an easy girl. The first time she went to his room she didn’t sleep with him.
Moving on to other issues more important than their current relationship. Two murders occurred in Jericho. One of the victims was a normie high school girl from Jericho. She was found murdered and mutilated in the vicinity of the forest.
The other victim was an elderly man well-known to all Jericho neighbors. He always took a night walk. He was found mutilated on one of the paths.
This could mean that the crazy professor normie has already set in motion the plan to revive Crackstone using the Hyde or it is the Spellmans who sent some crazy creature or person to murder him. It wouldn’t be very smart for him to murder people, as he would be tipping Luke off when he arrived in Jericho.
So, Luke believes that the first option is the most viable. Because of the butterfly effect he provoked the events of the series were happening before their time, although he didn’t care much about it. He didn’t consider the series a good reference. Because of the differences in powers and stuff.
Luke wanted to read Professor Normie’s mind, but he didn’t do it. Some artifacts protect your mind. In a school with psychics who have such powers, the school could have given Normie ways to protect herself or she could have artifacts since her mortal enemies are the outcasts, and she should know their powers.
Another event that followed in the footsteps of the Netflix series was the assassination attempt on Wednesday. Luke learned of this from Xavier, who witnessed by chance how a gargoyle fell from the sky straight at Wednesday’s head.
The difference was that here, Xavier had no time to intervene, as Wednesday destroyed the gargoyle without difficulty. With this Luke was able to confirm that Rowan is still trying to assassinate Wednesday because of the prophecy which seems to remain unchanged.
However, if he wants to assassinate Wednesday he will have to come up with a very meticulous plan, as Wednesday swept the floor with him in the fight they had on Raven Island. With this, he could also confirm that Rowan had already joined the Nightshade Society. In this way, he found the prophetic drawing left by his mother when she was a student.
It was strange that an unpopular person like Rowan could join the Nightshade Society, but it could be explained that he joined because of his family background. Since his mother was an old member of the Nightshade Society and a famous outcast, he was able to get in.
…
Gia entered the ‘Ravenloft dormitory.’ The dormitory Luke belonged to. Girls were not prohibited from entering male dorms as long as it was during normal hours.
Several students recognized her as Luke’s current girlfriend, so they greeted her respectfully. Although they had not yet made their relationship official, Gia had already come to Luke’s dorm several times.
‘I still can’t get used to it…’ thought Gia, nodding to the students. She looked like she was a mobster, and everyone greeted her with respect.
This was because all the students in the Ravenloft dorm had great respect for Luke. Since he humiliated the students in other dorms and the Poe Cup, even though it was canceled they had come to Raven Island first, and he killed one of the culprits of the attack.
He was like a symbol of power and pride for the students of Ravenloft. Especially for the students in the same year as Luke and a year younger. Unbeknownst to Luke his prestige had increased compared to last year when he was rude to everyone and no one liked him. Although from his perspective not much had changed….
Gia walked until she was in front of the door that led to Luke’s dorm room. She knocked softly twice and waited.
“Come in,” someone said after a few seconds. Gia walked in and noticed two people in the bedroom. Luke’s only two friends: are Xavier and Ajax.
“Hi, Xavier, Ajax. Where’s Luke? He’s not answering my messages,” Gia greeted and asked as she noticed Luke wasn’t in the room.
“Oh, hi, Gia,” replied Xavier, pausing the video game he was playing next to Ajax, who nodded his head in greeting.
“If he’s not answering your messages he’s most likely training. He puts his cell phone on silent,” added Xavier.
Xavier remembered the intense training Luke does every day and felt a shiver run down his spine. Since he came back from vacation he not only trains his telekinesis, he also does weights and martial arts. Once he wanted to join him in training.
A big mistake on his part. The next day, he felt all his bones and muscles sore, and he found it hard to walk and climb simple steps, despite his outcast physique.
“Which gym?” asked Gia.
“At the secondary,” replied Xavier.
“Thanks, see ya!” said Gia, waving goodbye and leaving the room.
“So those are the girls Luke likes….. Hard to believe,” commented Ajax after a few seconds. “What do you mean?” asked Xavier.
“That he likes girls with a cheerful and enthusiastic nature. With the hottest senior girls, he barely dated once,” explained Ajax his point.
“It’s true… Gia has several similarities to Enid,” said Xavier. Both girls had that optimistic and cheerful aura about them. They pranced around happily as they walked and were very
talkative.
“That’s what I’m talking about. The last thing I thought was that Luke liked those kind of girls. I was picturing more of a… I don’t know, a Wednesday Addams,” Ajax said after thinking about which girl might click better with Luke’s personality.
“Wednesday Addams? That girl has a worse personality than Luke…” said Xavier with a strange look on his face. Although he found Wednesday very attractive, her personality was
very bad.
Everyone who wanted to talk to her left in a panic in less than five minutes. Her tongue was biting and acidic. She did not hold back in her comments and seemed to see everyone as
annoying flies.
Since Nevermore began, Wednesday became an outcast. Being an outcast at an outcast school was a difficult feat to accomplish.
“Worse? Don’t you remember Luke at the beginning of last year?” asked Ajax.
“That’s right…” said Xavier, unable to argue. Luke last year was just as rude as Wednesday was now. He saw everyone as an annoyance and didn’t want to talk to anyone. Thanks to Enid, he managed to open up more and stop being so grumpy.
“Speaking of something else. Are you going to the harvest festival? You could invite Sara. She’s been interested in you for a while now,” asked Xavier.
“It’s mandatory. Everyone has to go. The principal takes normie events very seriously, so we improve the image they have of us,” said Ajax with a grimace.
“Then invite Sara,” suggested Xavier. To forget the trauma of Sabrina his deceased girlfriend,
he could start dating Sara. A siren friend of Bianca’s.
“I don’t know… maybe,” said Ajax, not wanting to talk about it anymore. He resumed the
game, and they continued where they left off.
