Chapter 318 Striking Resemblance
Luis was surprised to find out that the room they were going to be staying in was just like the one they had at Crockel academy.
A double bunk was placed close to the door with a single bed opposite it and the window which they never opened and would never open was on the same side.
There wasn't much to do in the room as the three roommates entered the room and dropped their bags on their respective beds and just like at Crockel academy, Luis had gotten the single bed.
He pulled out his bedsheet from his bag and quickly used it to cover his bed before turning back to see that Ace was doing the same and Dylan was just standing there.
"Hey, are you with those headsets?" Ace asked.
"You mean these?" Luis said as he placed his hands on the bed for the VR headsets to appear on it. "Do you want to play?"
"Of course not." Ace said.
"Why not?" Luis asked as that wasn't exactly the answer he was expecting.
"We're in a new environment Luis, we are at Phoenix academy, the best academy in the world, we should be out there exploring not playing a video game indoors." Ace said.
"So you want us to go outside and explore," Luis said.
"Yeah, and we can also meet new people." Ace said.
"The other academies aren't here yet," Luis said.
"I meant from Phoenix academy." Ace said.
"Okay," Luis said.
"Let's go." Ace said opening the door.

'Remember Michael told you to stay low and you haven't been obeying that instruction right from Crockel academy.' Lena said.
'It's still daytime Lena and there are a lot of soldiers, teachers, and students moving around the academy even Nova knows now's not the best time to try and capture me.' Luis replied.
As soon as he had stepped outside he had spotted the same Nova he was thinking about, but she wasn't alone.
She was with Nicole and they were talking to two soldiers just in front of the boy's dormitory area.
Nova had made eye contact with him as soon as he had looked in that direction but he had quickly broken that eye contact as soon as he heard Ace calling his name.
"Hey Luis, over here." Ace said, calling him to follow him down the large road which demarcated the boys' dormitory area and the girls' dormitory area.
Unlike Crockel academy, there were no forests in Phoenix academy the whole place was filled with lots of buildings and nicely tarred roads.
"This place is awesome." Ace said as the two walked down the road.
Many students were walking up and down the road, mostly students from Phoenix academy but none of them cared about who they were or whether they were from a different academy.
Ace had immediately stopped walking as he could clearly see the entrance to the skyscraper building that was towering over their guest dormitories.
"I don't know why we don't have a skyscraper at our academy." Ace said looking up at the building. "This building could contain all the classes in the academy."
"Yeah but I think the skyscraper is for the other academies." A female voice said behind the two.
The two boys quickly turned to see a red-haired female who was holding some files which Ace could tell were really important.
'Ella.' Was the first thought that had come to Luis' mind on seeing the person but there were a few things that had confirmed that it was a different person.
She had red hair just like Ella but her hair color seemed to be slightly bleached and she also appeared to be a little shorter and paler compared to Ella.
She also had quite an oval face which wasn't exactly something Ella had.
Apart from the few differences, she looked exactly just like Ella, the blue eyes, the slightly pointed nose, and the red hair.
"Our classrooms are behind the building." The girl said, pointing at the skyscraper.
"Oh, and I guess we weren't good enough to be put in the skyscraper." Ace said.
"Well the first place was for the first academy to arrive and no one expected that to be your academy, it was really shocking to see you guys arrive this early." The girl said.
"Oh." Ace said. "Thanks for clearing me up on that."
"No problem, I'm Emma by the way," Emma said, offering her hand for a handshake.
"Ace." Ace said accepting the handshake.
Emma turned to Luis after the handshake to see that he still had his eyes on her since they turned to her.
"Is your friend okay?" She asked.
"Ah, sorry," Luis said, snapping out of his mind as he was having a conversation with Lena. "It's just that you really look like someone I know."
"Oh," Emma said, holding in her smile. "Two people look alike most times."
"It's something new to me," Luis said.
"I could tell, I'm Emma by the way." She said offering her hand for a handshake.
"Emma," Luis repeated before accepting the handshake. "Luis."
"Nice to meet you Luis and you too Ace." She said turning her gaze back to Ace.
"Nice meeting you too." Ace said.
"Well, I have to go get this to miss Valerie." She said, "See you guys later and if you want to know where the tournament is taking place just keep walking down until you get to the large stadium." She added before walking away.
"She's nice." Ace said as soon as she was gone.
"Yeah and I still can't get over the fact that there isn't much difference in looks when comparing her to Ella," Luis said, still thinking of the striking resemblance between the two.
"Yeah she looks like your girlfriend but I think she's prettier and nicer." Ace said.
"Ella's not my girlfriend," Luis said.
"Whatever, let's just go see the stadium." Ace said, already walking off in the direction.
___ ___
The students of Eukerion academy had just arrived at Phoenix intercontinental airport and now they were getting ready to go through the teleporters that would take them straight to Phoenix academy.
Teleporters were made available at the airports for easy transportation but there were still cabs for the many people who didn't feel comfortable traveling through teleporters.
The students were standing beside the plane at the airport waiting for the teleporters to get ready and as always Tania and Chloe were standing together but they weren't talking as Tania had a lot going through her mind right now.
"Hey, I've told you to stop thinking about that and put on a smile," Chloe said, giving her a little shove.
"Chloe you don't understand, there are a lot of dangerous creatures in my world and one of them might have come through that portal," Tania said.
"I know but the two Lieutenants are already on the case," Chloe said. "And besides that shouldn't you be happy that you're finally going to find your friend today?"
"Yeah," Tania said but the smile just wasn't coming to her.
"Get ready to move everyone, the teleporters are ready!" A female teacher yelled from the area the engineers were working on the teleporters.
