The alarm clock was set for 8:00 A.M, and as much as it pained Auron, once you set a clock the clock instantly remembers the time it was set for. *Ring Ring*. As the Clock blared through the air, Auron moaned and groaned while twisting and turning. “Five more minutes” He mumbled, as if it would stop the clock’s blaring and music. Suddenly, he hated the fact that he fapped to Fakku the night before….“Ugh….” He hated getting up in the morning, and his mother walked through the door just as he got up. “Auron, you’re up?” “That’s good, you’ve got to hurry up and eat breakfast; today’s your first day at the Academy remember?” Hearing her say the word “Academy” was all he needed to get in the shower, bathe in the water for five to ten minutes and get dressed in the school uniform. The school uniform was a black robe, with a magical seal as the pendant. The Academy was aptly named “St. Lucifer Academy”, named as such after the angel of illumination who shines brighter than Venus. The fact that an occult school has become a private institution has shown how much life has changed over the years, whereas studying the occult used to be forbidden. This Academy, in particular was rated to be a high-level institution that also has courses on traditional learning so that it’s students don’t slacken on the other skills they need to succeed. The fact that his mother got him into this university shows how much she cares for him, he smiled as he thought about that eating some waffles, bacon and chocolate milk.
“What’s the huge grin for, is the breakfast good?” His mother asked and he nodded, closing his eyes. “The breakfast, your love and your loyalty, mother. I’m sure I’ve put you through a lot but when I come back from this experience I will be a better man than ever before.” He declared as he pecked her on the cheek, and she chuckled and chided her son. “Auron, you act as if you’ll be gone for years. You’ll be coming home once every weekend.” He nodded. “Still, for the most part during these four years, I’ll be away from home.” He acknowledged with a bit of a sad frown, while he always wanted to study in the occult and it fascinated him, he didn’t exactly want to leave his loved ones behind. “You’re not away from home.” His mother stated, which shocked him for a moment. “What do you mean?” He asked and his mother put her hands to her chest and she whispered softly. “You’ll remain in your family’s hearts, in my heart.” He blushed softly and cried his last tears and nodded. “Thank you, Mother!” He yelled as he ran out the door and his mother shed her last tears as well. “Goodbye…and good luck, Auron-kun.”
He caught a public bus and he took a ride to the terminal. The Academy was located in California, hence he would be riding an Amtrak train and then he figured he would walk to the Academy. As he got his train tickets and his luggage, he waited until his train would arrive. When it did arrive, he was surprised to see that the first-class cabin he was assigned to was filled with similarly black-robed students. “Are these all Lucifer Academy students!?” He exclaimed as he got in, the laughter that ensued made him blush embarrassingly red and he just wanted to crawl under a rock and die. “Don’t worry about it, it’s obvious you’re a freshman!” A blonde-haired, blue-eyed man grabbed him by the throat and noggied him. “How’d you know I was a freshman and who are you?” “From that question of yours, obviously we’re all Lucifer Academy students but it is pretty amazing to have an entire cabin full isn’t it? And I am Steven Leblanc. My parents descended from Germany, but I’ve lived in America the past few years and now I’m a sophomore at this Academy. So I was in your shoes one year ago.” “Come, sit over here.” Auron followed Leblanc to a relatively nice sitting place, Auron then took notice of the slight difference in their robes and his. Their robes all had a color, in their case white. He noticed that other robes were similarly colored red and blue.” “In our Academy, we’re all family.” Steven explained. “The red color is the Legion family, referencing to the legion of 32. Only truly elite students enter the family and very few freshman ever get inducted into the family. However, that might change somewhat slightly as the High Priestess was nominated from the Legion Family, and she has the right to nominate six new students to be a part of the Family. Though it’s likely she’ll just pick a few second-years that haven’t been given a Family yet.” “The Blue Family is the Azure family, they’re the second highest rank and it’s likely a good portion of talented freshman will be appointed to the Azure family.” “And then finally, there’s us, the White Family, otherwise the Angelic Family. We’re a lot less tense and serious as the other two. So a majority of the freshman come to the White Family, but that doesn’t mean we’re not talented.” He laughed as he gave an explanation of the system. “So it’s like a ranking system, but instead of years, it’s ranked by actual skill level.” Auron analyzed and Stephen nodded. “Yeah, if I were you though, regardless of what grade I earned I would join our family. You’ll want a smooth transition into the Academy and you’ll want to learn your courses. If you want to join the Legion Family, it’d be best to wait a year and probably not even then will you be ready.” Auron nodded at the information, and as the train moved from state to state, the Angelic Family cast low-level spells and played jokes and we all laughed. And indeed, he thought it would be absolutely wonderful if he could join this group to study under. As the train came to a stop in Atlanta though, a new block of Academy students came in the door, including a female who as he first laid eyes upon her, profoundly impressed him. She was tall, had to be at least 5’6 and what’s more was the crown on her head in addition to the red robe. Everyone stood up and bowed and Auron stood up as well, wondering what was happening, when Stephen pushed him down. “You have to bow!” He silently warned him and Auron was puzzled. “Why, she’s just another student….”
“Good day, High Priestess.” Everyone except Auron said in unison. “H-High Priestess? She is?” Auron asked as his face blushed, he couldn’t have dreamed the High Priestess was so beautiful. There were two other ladies besides the High Priestess, one of whom shouted: “Who among our fraternity is so rude as to not recognize the highest ranked sorcerer in the school?” As all eyes pointed at him, he blushed an even deeper red. This wasn’t just embarrassment, he was about to be scolded. As the High Priestess walked up to him, his blush deepened but this time it was because of her dark-colored eyes matching her black hair and her intense gaze as well as her fairly-sized chest and perfect body complexion. She also seemed to be taking a fair interest in him as well as her eyes looked up and down his body and finally into his eyes…..The stare made him feel incapable of movement, paralyzed by her sexiness and her strong aura as a pure feminine female that only Lucifer himself could have created. “Who are you?” She asked, it wasn’t a harsh question but it was one delivered with unexpected kindness. He blushed as he barely stuttered out the answer. “Auron….Auron Kamiya, It’s a pleasure to meet you High Priestess!” He exclaimed towards the end and bowed, ashamed of himself. “My apologies for not greeting you earlier, I didn’t know who you wer-“ She stopped him and pulled his face up, kissing his cheek. “You’re a freshman, it couldn’t be helped… Next time, greet your senpais with proper respect.” She said as she and the rest of the Legion Family walked to the private suite inside of the Academy’s hosted train. Stephen again lurched onto him and grinned.
“Lucky bastard, not only did she not cast a spell on you or humiliate you to death, she gave you a kiss! She did! There were rumors of the High Priestess being a lesbian since she didn’t get a long so well with guys but either that was out of kindness for a freshman or perhaps she likes guys after all.” Auron looked back at the private suite, and through the window he saw what was the woman of his dreams…
END CHAPTER ONE
*Footnotes: I know the whole sorcery-school thing has kind of been a little over-done, but not really. Harry Potter comes to mind but I really wasn’t thinking about it at all. The motivation actually comes from Strawberry Panic as well as Maria-Sama Ga Miteru. The idea of a higher ranked student, respecting if not loving a younger student is something that’s but a fantasy in today’s world. And even more so, the younger student being captivated and longing after the forbidden, older maiden is even more erotic and romantic. I wanted to create a story based on that kind of student-lust/love.
