Chapter 202 Lost Headsets
Natasha\'s attempted murder against Tania had brought the class to an abrupt end as he asked the students to head back to their dorm rooms while she went out with Natasha.
Tania was still lying in Todd\'s hands and it seemed like she was beginning to regain her breath now.
"Are you okay?" Todd asked after noticing that her breathing had settled a little.
Tania didn\'t respond as she stared at him for a while before turning to the side to see that everyone was gone.
"Tania," Todd called.
"Yes, I\'m okay." Her voice was very tiny now because of the pressure Natasha had put on her neck. "Where\'s Natasha?"
"Madam Nelly took her somewhere, she\'s going to receive proper punishment," Todd said.
"Punishment," Tania muttered as she turned to the side.
"What is it?" Todd asked.
"Has she always been like this?" Tania asked.
The question seemed to have stirred up a certain emotion in Todd as he slowly lay her head on the floor and turned to look at the exit.
"She wasn\'t exactly like this, sure she acted crazy sometimes but I never thought it would get to this extent," Todd said.
"Why does she hate me this much? I don\'t remember doing anything to her." Tania said.
"I\'ve tried asking her but she didn\'t give me any reasonable answer," Todd said.
There was a moment of silence between them as Tania got off her back to sit on the floor.
"Thank you, Todd." She said, "For saving my life."
It didn\'t take long before Todd turned to her with a smile.
Tania was walking properly on her own as they two headed back to their dormitories, well Todd was escorting her back to her dorm room.
The two soon arrived in front of the door and Todd had been the person to knock.
It didn\'t take long before the door was opened by Chloe whose face turned sour on seeing him.
"What do….." She wanted to ask before spotting Tania behind him.
"Tania." She said as she stepped a foot outside and pulled Tania closer to her. "What took you so long? I saw your mates return quite a while ago."
Tania hadn\'t replied yet as Chloe scanned her body with her eyes and that was when she spotted the marks on her neck and how some parts of it were red.
"Who did this to you?" Her eyes had gone ice blue as she didn\'t even wait for Tania to reply before she turned to Todd.
"It was you right?" She said quickly grabbing his hand which froze up immediately but it wasn\'t only his hand as the frost began to spread all over his body.
"Could you be reasonable for once Chloe?" Todd said as he tried to break free but his efforts were futile.
"Chloe stop!" Tania yelled behind her. "He didn\'t do anything to me."
That was enough to knock the girl back to his senses as the frost all over Todd\'s body began to melt slightly making his clothes wet.
"Then who did that thing to you?" Chloe asked. "I\'ve seen that mark before and it\'s not a good memory for me," Chloe said, looking at her neck.
Tania wanted to tell her that it was Natasha but after seeing what she did to Todd, she decided to keep that to herself for now.
"It happened during a spar, it\'s no big deal," Tania said, rubbing her neck.
"No big deal," Chloe said looking at her neck, judging by the look on her face she didn\'t exactly buy that but she didn\'t go further to ask any more questions.
"You got lucky today Todd," Chloe said to his face before walking into the room and pulling Tania along with her.
"Seriously, I don\'t know what\'s that girl\'s problem," Todd muttered to himself looking at his partially drenched uniform.

You could say the fight between the demon and the wonder warrior was a tie given that they had knocked each other out at the same time and they had done that in quite a critical way.
Their crash into each side of the wall had created quite a large dent on both walls but that wasn\'t anyone\'s concern as they were busy still wondering how Silvia had been able to create such a large explosion with her hands.
"Ok, that was the most epic fight throughout this contest," Ella said.
"Yeah," Henry said. "That explosion was epic."
"How did she create something like that?" Monica said, staring at the middle spot.
\'This has to be some sort of wonder warrior special move.\' Michael thought.
\'Do you think you would have been able to take that blast?\' Lena asked.
\'I don\'t know but I think I\'ve survived worse attacks.\' Luis said.
"Alright everyone that marks the end of our sparring contest," Michael said. "The competition is starting tomorrow and I just hope this little contest prepared you for it."
After saying that, the CEO turned and began to head toward his office.
"Luis." He called after he had taken two steps forward.
The Angel quickly walked up to him as the two began to walk side by side heading for his office.
"Any problem?" Luis asked.
"Yeah, do you mind returning my gadgets?" Michael asked.
"Which gadgets are we talking about again?"
"My teleporters and my VR headsets," Michael said.
"Oh those," Luis said. "Can I ask you something about those VR headsets and that game?" He quickly changed the topic.
"What?" Michael said as he opened the door to his office and walked in.
"Who created that game?" Luis asked after walking into the dusty office.
"I am the creator of demon battle virtual reality game but it\'s not launched worldwide yet," Michael said, adjusting his watch, he was getting ready to teleport.
"What do you mean by not being launched worldwide yet?" Luis asked.
"Nobody knows about them yet except for the prototypes used by the combat classes here for training students," Michael said.
"Then how come I met two people when I was playing the game in online mode?"
Michael had almost pushed the final button on his watch to teleport when he heard Luis say that and had stopped his hand halfway.
"You saw people playing the game," Michael said.
"Yeah, and it seemed like they were familiar with everything," Luis said.
Michael had entered a deep state of thought as what Luis had just told him had come as a surprise to him.
It couldn\'t be the ones he handed out to the academy, those ones weren\'t programmed to play online yet.
He had only three headsets ready for online mode and Luis had already taken two of them so who could these two people be and how did they get into the game?
"You said two headsets right?" Michael asked as something had finally clicked in his mind.
"Yeah."
"I originally had five headsets programmed for online mode but two had gone missing," Michael said.
"Where?" Luis asked.
"They fell into the ocean when I was returning from my visit to Phoenix," Michael said.
"Phoenix," Luis said.
"Yeah, thanks for the info Luis, I have to go check something now," Michael said before pushing the last button on his watch and disappearing.
He arrived at his lab and quickly grabbed the VR headset from the small cupboard, walked to his table, dropped the headset there, and took a seat.
"The only way to be sure is to ask them myself."
He was about to grab the headset and put it on when he was interrupted by Nika.
"You have an incoming call, Michael," Nika said.
"Incoming call from who?" Michael asked, sounding a little annoyed that someone was disturbing him now.
"Miss Lang, it\'s a video call," Nika said as a virtual screen appeared in front of Michael.
The virtual screen had a picture of Nicole with her name written below the picture.
\'Why would she want to video chat with me during her working hours?\' Michael thought.
