Entering the long enterance hallway Zero had been silent on his feet but walked in haste. Zero needed to see one of the magisters for some specific reason but mainly wanting to see Ace, it seemed to him like he knew much more of what Zero was going to bring up. Much more. Zero knew that Ace had been a magister for quite some time now and he would be the right man for this.
Zero kept walking forth and went around a few halls and kept wandering around a bit. His destination was nearing him and soon he would have been ready for anything at the moment. He kept walking on and wondering in his mind what Ace would say. This was somthing big for Zero and it would be tons of hard work.
When Zero got to the room he saw nothing but desks thrown across the rooms as if someone went on a riot, and rampage. This was surprising to see but Zer had a vacant look now on his face not knowing what to think when Ace would get there, because he really didnt see Ace around anywere. Papers were on the floor scattered just like the chairs were, tilted upside down and tables were turned sideways, but some where completely upside down.
For now all he could do was wait for somone to come, anyone, but mainly needed a word with Ace. Once some assistance came by, Zero would help get the place organized and striaghtened up. He stood there with a still look on his face and waited.
Master Ace was tired. He had recently got through a search for Monkroot. It was hard to tell the annoying plants from the sea of grass that covered the ebon plains. Ace had spent the better half of a day seaching. The sky was darkening upon Ace's return, but it was already made dark by a large blanket of dark clouds. The clouds were threating to rain, but no droplet fell from the sky.
Master Ace walked slowly int the academy with his small bag of Monkroot. He would be sure to buy it off of someone next time rather than look for it himelf. He was glad he had went and looked for monkroot himself before he sent out a class on a feild trip to find some. As intrested as the students may be in alchemy, he doubted the would enjoy spending all day looking the long acres of ebon plains in search of the rare plants which was so simmilar to the grass that it would be easily overlooked.
Master Ace made his way through the halls with little on his mind beisdes sleep. Ace came more to his sense when he saw Zero walk into a classroom which Ace had used commonly. He wondered what the pyro was doing here now. Perhaps eager for another lesson on magic and another way to fight against Zorgn, though Ace did not recall Zero talking much of zorgn anymore. Zorgn had also made another disappearace from the academy? Did Zero destroy Zorgn?
All of these thoughts flushed from his mind as he saw the state of the room. It was surely not as he last had left it. "Got an anger manegment problem?" Ace chuckled humorlessly. He knew that Zero was not likely the cause of this, though he might know what happened.
Zero noticed Ace arrive already, of course everytime he went to the Acedemy a magister always appeared before any student could. Though the place had still been untidy and had been destroyed for some reason, Zero thought for a bit at who could have been behind this chaos and mayhem. Nothing what so ever came to his mind. Not now at least. Zero answered Ace back but to Zero, he thought that Ace assumed it was his work he had made in the destroyed class-room. I have no story behind this, Im sorry but I will be a big help to you by beginning to clean this place up. Zero had almost forgotten why he was really there. He had almost forgot to tell Ace he was important to him right now. May I have a word with you when I get this placed cleaned up? It a little important but I think it should wait.
Zero entered the room and began with the scattered papers on the floor. He found nothing but the students and the magisters notes scattered throughout the room. A little bit of scrolls were found and some important history was also. He gathered the papers in a nice stack and placed them on the counter. But there was still more than just what he had picked up. He paused for a second and looked at Ace with a vague face. He knew Ace had no idea who was behind this but Zero felt like asking anywayYou really have no idea who did this do you? He stood there taking a rest from the progress he just made in the room.
Are you gonna help or not? He spoke to him impatiently but almost too jokingly. He really needed to talk to Ace right now and would have asked Ace kindly if he could do him a favor. Ok tell you what, we wont clean. We will lock this room up and I need some serious talking to do with you. So I think locking this room for now will have to do. He walked out of the class-room for now and waited for Ace to lock the door hoping that he too agreed on him.
(Too sleepy)
Master Ace watched as Zero busied himself with the room. The boy was certainly a busy body for the moment. The kid gave Ace no time at all to respond to any of his questions. Ace would have helped out, but he was certainly not in the mood and the room did really need to be cleaned anyways. The academy was filled of unsued classrooms. They were all cleaned out now, but Ace recalled a time when some of the rooms were in a worse condition than this room. He wouldn't leave this room in this state forever of course. He'd probably get to it tommorrow some time when he was not in a bad mood.
Ace was curious when Zero said he had something important to say. Surely whatever it was was more important than cleaning a superflous room. "The room does not need to be locked. Unless of course you must say this urgent whatever behing locked doors, though I would doubt there are any in the academy at the moment," Ace replied as he followed Zero out of the classroom.
