Ulysses Fabrice Bertaux got out of the hired car and
looked at the great facility tentatively. It was small, but intimidating
nevertheless. The driver began to unload Ulysses' bags. The large truck
pulled up behind the car and Ulysses quickly went over to the driver and
servant there.
"How is she?" he asked softly.
"Just fine Master Ulysses." the servant replied. "She seemed
to rather enjoy the trip."
"Oh good. Thank you Frederick." Ulysses said with a small smile.
Frederick smiled back.
"My pleasure Master Ulysses." he said.
"Ulysses?" came a familiar voice.
Ulysses' heart skipped a beat and he turned around to see that beautiful
silver hair.
"Bwoshih." he said quietly as the person in question hurried over
to him.
"Hello Ulysses." Bwoshih said, enveloping the boy in a gentle hug.
"It's good to see you again."
"It's good to see you too Bwoshih." Ulysses replied.
Then he blushed slightly.
"I mean, Professor Iduhlee." he corrected himself.
Bwoshih smiled.
"You don't have to call me Professor until we're in class,
Ulysses." he said. "Until then, I'm still Bwoshih."
"Yes Bwoshih." Ulysses acknowledged, his blush fading.
"And how's your friend?" Bwoshih asked.
"Frederick said that she enjoyed the overland trip." Ulysses
replied.
"Splendid." Bwoshih said. "Please tell them to bring her to
the pool, Frederick." he requested.
"Yes Mr. Iduhlee." Frederick replied.
Ulysses turned to the driver.
"Max, could you please take my bags up to my room? I would like to stay
with her until she's settled." he requested.
"Of course Master Ulysses." the driver agreed with a smile.
Bwoshih gave Max directions to Ulysses' room and then led Frederick and the
others with the tank to the pool.
