"Let me go." Ariana mumbled. "You can not be afraid of the male population forever! Toughen up and fight your enemies head on! Become strong! Become proud! Become glorious!" Rahul shouted but Ariana stayed silent. "Hey princess... what are they talking about?" Breeze asked as he stretched out his hand to place on her shoulder. "No!" She shouted and stumbled backwards. Rain quickly caught her before she fell but Ariana paled. "No!" She shouted as she pushed Rain away. "No... don"t touch me." She whimpered."Ariana was almost r*ped." Vasu told Breeze. Ariana"s eyes grew wide as she looked up at Vasu. "No! How could you!" She shouted at Vasu and turned to Breeze. "Don"t say it!" She shouted. The energy around Breeze started to turn malicious, sparks were starting to fly as his eyes turned dark and murderous. "Who?!" He shouted. Ariana shook her head no. "Don"t say it, please." She pleaded but Breeze could not calm his rage. "You better f*cking tell me who almost r*ped you or I will bring my wrath to the entire male population at this Academy!"
"Breeze stop it! You"re not making this any better." Mrs. Dabney said as she walked over to Ariana and sat down. She quickly wrapped her arms around the girl and stroked her hair. "Let it all out, you"re safe here." She murmured causing the flood gates to open. "I still feel his hands on me! His lips touched my skin! He hurt me! He hurt me so much so I would scream but I didn"t given in.... I hate it so much! If Cayden didn"t try to erase the feeling I would have taken my own life then live always feeling like his hands were on me!" She cried. "It"s my fault! If I didn"t wear my hair up or wore something under my robe or just looked ugly maybe I would have been left alone!"
Breeze instantly deflated. He looked and felt so guilty that he couldn"t even stand anymore. He slumped down and sat on one of the steps with his hands covering his face. "I"m sorry. I"m so sorry." He said pitifully. "I didn"t know... I can"t take back what I did or said. Ariana I"m sorry."
"Sweetie can you tell me who did it?" Mrs. Dabney asked softly but Ariana shook her head. "It won"t matter, he"s untouchable." She sniffed. "Cayden beat him senseless and it landed him in detention.... I"m also pretty sure the Headmaster knows but he won"t do anything. Instead he wants me to be his wife." Breeze shot up from the floor and ran out the room. "I... think you might be right but that doesn"t mean you have to live in fear because of him. That just mean he"s won if you do. We are living in an era where the males don"t necessarily see females as their equals. It"s slowly changing but it"ll be a hundred years before it is considered normal that women are stronger then them." Mrs. Dabney said with a heavy sigh.
"Look, I know this will be hard and you will need to overcome this with a lot of determination but you can"t shut down like this. If you don"t change, if you don"t become stronger then your fear, you will be given no choice but to accept the proposal to that jerk and then what? Believe me, dying because of what a man did is not an option. It is a stupid option. You don"t see the hurt left behind. Your friends, family and people who admire you will all be devastated. They will be just as lost as you are and maybe some will want to follow you." Ariana looked up at Mrs. Dabney and nodded her head. "Okay.... what should I do?" Then suddenly Cayden came running into the room. His face dripping with sweat as he scanned the room.
When he saw her he cautiously walked down the step towards her. Stopping only a foot away, he squatted down and stretched out his hand. "You okay?" Ariana looked up at Cayden"s hand then moved her gaze to his face. Her heart started to thump rapidly as she looked at his worried face. "I think I"m starting to feel okay." She said softly. Cayden pulled back his hand and sat down with a sigh of relief. "What happened to Breeze?" Rain asked and Cayden gave Rain a dark look. "I beat him senseless."

".... pfft." Ariana tried to m.u.f.fle her laugh. "Of course you would." She said as a small smile spread across her face. "No one touches you or else." Cayden said with serious face. Ariana laughed harder. Mrs. Dabney slowly released Ariana from her embrace and with Rain"s help got up. She then looked at Rain and put her index finger over her lips before they continued to watch. "Are you not worried about being punished?" Ariana said as she put her hand into her blazer"s pocket and pulled out a cherry blossom pattern handkerchief.
Cayden flashed a smile and scooted down a step and sat beside Ariana. "No." He answered truthfully. "Well I am." She said as she started to gently blot his face with her handkerchief. "I will be careful." He whispered as he carefully watched her facial expressions. Ariana met his gaze and started to blush. "I don"t think you fighting my battles is going to help me get over my fear... I need to get stronger." She said as she pulled back her hand but Cayden caught it mid air. "I want to protect you even if you become strong enough."
"Cayden I... I... really... love... you." She said and Cayden started to lean in closer. "Mmmh." He whispered as he gently grabbed her chin. "Master! I was completely beaten senseless!" Breeze shouted as he stomped into the room. Cayden and Ariana were brought back to reality and started to blush as they turned their heads away.
Cayden stood up and realized that Rain and Mrs. Dabney were still in the room, watching them. Mrs. Dabney looked positively giddy while Rain seemed to be making mental notes. "What"s going on?" Breeze asked as he eyed the two. "Professor Rain, I am willing to take any punishment for beating your familiar." Cayden said as he bowed to Rain.
"It"s fine. Please do not worry about it." Rain said as he waved a dismissive hand in the air. "Thank you sir!" Cayden shouted then raised his head. A murderous flash went through his eyes as he stared at Rain. "I will not be so easy on him or anyone else if this were ever to happen again." Cayden said in a low, threatening voice.
