Parody Academy: Grandfather Paradox

Chapter 1

2029

Henry Herman made his a way up K-16 lounge, he wasn't happy about the sudden meeting that the board of directors brought up. Henry was a part of the board in charge of the organization that plan on destroying Parody academy, The Sparrows, he has been in it for a long time, infact he was the chairman of the board.

He wondered what would have happened for the organization to bring up an urgent meeting.

Henry noticed a young guy around twenty years of age with a mask at the front of the elevator door as it opened for him to leave.

He ignored the boy and made his way for the meeting room.

He went to hall B7 and met all the members of the board there

"Good afternoon, gentlemen, care to tell me why I got a message telling me to come for an urgent meeting when today is my day off!" He said as he took his seat. They all stared at him with confusion. He noticed it, "Why the stares?" he asked.

One of them stood up, it was Ricardo, his vice " Umm, sir we all received a text from you saying we should assemble here"

Henry face showed no expression, "What do you mean? I got a text from you saying I should come, it was an urgent matter" He too was beginning to become confused. Ricardo was about to speak when the door opened. Henry who was backing the door turned around, it was the masked guy "Please excuse me, I was the one who called you all here"

Henry scowled " How could you have could us?" He stood up to face the boy. Ricardo stopped Henry before he could harm the boy, "I don't think his lying" Ricardo walked to the guy "Why did you call for us boy?"

The guy laughed coldly, "To kill all of you"

Ricardo smirked " Boy it's not good that you play with that word" he started to call for the security to take the guy out. But the guy laughed again and disappeared only to reappear at Ricardo's front and slashes his neck with a dagger.

All the members started to bring out their weapons but the guy would only teleport to their side and kill them before Henry knew it the guy had killed all the members in a flash.

Blood stained the walls and Henry's clothes, the masked guy looked at him and suddenly Henry felt fear for once in his life,he tries to think but only one word came to his mind "Run!" He immediately tried to obey the order but he noticed that he wasn't moving, "Why wasn't he moving?" he was trembling, The masked guy walked slowly towards him.

"Move! Run!" it kept ringing in his but he couldn't lift a bone instead he fell on his knees. The masked guy was already at his front, he crotched to be at the same eye level with Henry. "What's wrong? Can't move?" The masked guy said. Henry muttered something, "Sorry I can't hear you" the guy stretched his ear

"Who are you? You're from Parody Academy right? Why haven't I heard of someone like you?" Henry stuttered.

The guy removed his mask, he had white hair that curled and covered his left eye, he was handsome and had a smooth innocent face that contrasts with his cold blooded attitude.

"I'm the Shadow Reaper" he replied coldly then he took his dagger and decapitated Henry.

2023 December 26th

New York City air was filled with festivities, not only because the holidays but also for Parody Academy who were celebrating their 2nd graduation, the academy was a ten year training facility for the gifted. The children started from six years old in the school and are now sixteen which was the age of graduation.

Mademoiselle Valerie combed the school looking for Leo but couldn't find him. She was about to give up when she realized she hadn't checked one place, the catacombs, a hidden ground laid under the academy. She immediately went there, and to her expectations she found him training with Code, one of the academy executives.

Valerie had always admired Leo's ability, teleportation, and was marveled at the mock duel going on.

Code raised her dagger towards Leo's head but he parried it and teleported to her back. He would have gotten an amateur with that move but Code was a professional, she bent over dodging his s***h and

tried sweeping Leo of his feet but he did a back flip and landed on his feet. He raised his head to see Code's dagger pointing at him.

He smirked, sheathed his dagger,

and raised his hands to surrender. Code laughed, "You still have a lot of things to learn"

"Eh, but I almost won" he groaned.

Code laughed again, it was true, among everyone she had taught, Leo was exceptional and she hardly taught anyone. He had defeated his previous tutors and they were specialist in their field. That was why she agreed to tutor him.

Valerie faked a cough, tutor and apprentice hadn't noticed her at all. She sighed and announced that the ceremony was about to start. Leo suddenly looked pale, he was enjoying the duel that he forgot he was supposed to give a speech. He thanked them and hurried off.

Valerie smiled, "he's strong"

"No he's dangerous" Code replied coldly, before packing her hair back revealing a fresh cut on her neck, it happened before she dodged his s***h. "I'd advice you stay on his good side till you die" Code said as she walked away.
