The Related Souls game
« Hi ! My name is Luz » said the tan girl, proudly expanding her hand to the glasses girl.
« H-Hi ! I’m Willow ! » said the girl.
« And I am Augustus ! » said a young dark skin boy.
« Oh ! We have those where I come from, and we call them Gus ! » told Luz smiling wide.
« OH I love it ! Call me Gus for now on ! » said the boy pointing himself. Willow laughed slightly.
« So where do you come from ? » asked the boy before eating a chicken wing.
« HUHH I’m from... USA ! Yes, I’m from USA ! » answered nervously the Latina girl.
« Oh so you were in Ilvermony ! What was your house back there ? » asked again the boy. Luz hoped that something would arrive so she wouldn’t have to lie or to tell the truth.
« Ahem, a little calm please, I have an announcement to make ! » shout an old man with green eyes.
« Oh thank god » thought Luz.
« I, the Principal Bump, and the teachers have decided to add a new reform this year. Trough the years, we noticed that they were too much competition between the houses, so we decided to cancel the House Championship for this one » students started growling, she didn’t know what was that competition but it seemed to be really adored by them. She mostly heard shouted and insults from the Snake house.
« To replace the competition, we added a new game in the theme of peace and love. We called it “The Related Soul game“» even more growling could be heard, some even yelled “It sucks !”. Luz tried not to laugh from the scene. Professor Lilith stood up and made a jar appear by magic !
« This game will only apply to 10 lucky students. That means, they can be pair with someone from the same age like with someone they have a big age gap, just as they can be pair with someone from a different house. I’ll be randomly drawing names and the two persons will be paired together » everyone went silent, grumpy students were still growling but not so noisy like minutes ago.
« Alright, the first duo will be composed of...» said the Teacher picking a paper from the jar « Edric Blight and... Wow Emira Blight... ». The twins high fived while laughing hard. Luz smiled seeing her first friend being one of the duo, and paired with her brother.
« The second duo will be composed of... Augustus Babee and... Mattholomule Payne » Gus was drinking when he heard his name. He spilled all his juice on his plate. « Oh no ! Not him ! »
«What’ s wrong ? » asked Luz a little concern.
« That guy is a total jerk, he lies and cheats in class ! » said angrily the boy.
« Oh i feel sorry for you buddy » smiled sadly Luz.
« The third duo will be composed of... Boscha Treeice and... Willow Toochai » Willow stayed quiet but her face was in a horrible grimace.
« Oh no, is this girl mean too ? » asked Luz, frustrated for her friends.
« Yes indeed ! One of the worst ! One year, she stole my bag and threw it through the window ! » Luz was being angry too, but she tried to calm her friend nevertheless.
« Don’t worry, it will be alright » Luz smiled then tried to listen again. The fourth duo was a Raven house girl and a Lion house girl, they seemed excited to be together, they seemed friends. She smiled again.
« You don’t understand, Slytherin are the worst !» said Willow pretty angry.
«Come one, not all Slytherin are like that, the Blight Twins are really nice ! » said happily Luz
« You mean the Devils Twins ??!! » asked Willow with surprised.
« What ?! Who call them like that ?! » Luz felt anger, she needed to protect her new friends.
« Themselves ! » said Willow with wide eyes. Luz was shocked by the news. « They seemed so nice... Maybe they are just prankers or something ? » she was wondering and so didn’t pay attention again.
« And last duo will be compose of...
Amity Blight and... Luz Noceda ! »
said finally the teacher.
« Wait what- » said Luz while a « Wait whO ?! » could be heard from across the room.
