Fate

'You'll feel better if you do something about it.' No I won't, shut up! Telling yourself to shut up? That's the first sign of insanity boyo.

Boyo. What his father used to call him.

Who the hell do you think you are? I'm you idiot. Wait, you thought that, so you just called yourself an idiot and admitted to being stupid. No I didn't, go away. Well, I suppose I must be your conscience then.

Angelous grimaced. What a time for his conscience to finally start pulling it's weight.

Just go speak to him... Will you shut it if I do? For the time being.

He could almost imagine a little smug grin on it's face.

No one else seemed to notice Damon's quirks. He was so quiet. Granted, Angelous was usually fairly quiet, but that was because he couldn't be bothered to talk. Damon was so... timid! If you did talk to him, he gave you the impression you were threatening, even if you were offering him a diamond, you'd think you were handing him rat poison.

"Sorry about the eyelashes again." He said, because he wasn't sure how to start a conversation with the boy.

 

"Alright,alright,staff,staff..."Gamlin said to himself as he walked into the weapons shop and immediatly went over to an area where many staffs were.He stared at them"....ok,should we just grab one and buy it,or actually get one that is good?Wouldnt know which ones are good though,all look like pieces of wood to me."Gamlin said as he turned his upper body to face the others.

 

"Ahh... welcome to my shop, young one." said the owner of the weapon shop. He was a middle aged man who looks about 40s in ages. "Are you looking for a staff?" asked the weapon seller. Myre looked at him and nodded.

"We have the highest quality in weaponry. The best and the only shop in this city, i wonder how many gold you have?" asked the weapon seller.

Myre turned down to Zion and looked to the weapon seller back. "Not really much, 300 Golds." said Myre.

The weapon seller's expression changed when she said 300 golds. "Oh.. its wooden staff that enough for that gold. Its over there." said the weapon seller as he pointed at wooden staff.

"Thank you." replied Myre as she goes there and picked a wooden staff and gave the weapon seller the gold.

(note that i want to haste things to end the first day)

 

Damon laughed, nodding out of his usual day-dreams, "Oops, sorry... I kinda... ermm... space out..."
Damon smirked, "It's all... uhh... er... good!" Damon had good thoughts and feelings about Angelous, and so far he was the only person he had become fully acquainted with... somewhat.


Damon gave a nervous look as he dashed over to the potion shops.

He stared at one of the clerks, "Ermm... excuse me?" Damon gulped, "I need some items- you know, maybe some burn repellent if my fire attacks take recoil on my body." Damon said, staring at his arms, remembering the last time it happened.

"And could you direct me to some other helpful and or useful items or potions. I'm going on a mission, and I want to have a good inventory full of healing potions and maybe some fire-charms to raise my fire moves and spells." Damon smiled at the man managing the shop.

 

"Whoa, easy down there!" said the potion seller to Damon. "I ain't some robot that could do anything in short!" said the potion seller. He was an about 25 years old man who smokes cigarette. Yuuya and others just came to potion shop shortly after.

"So, you want some burn repellent eh? And also some potions for mission? Are you students from the academy?" asked Potion Seller.

"Well, i'd like to give them, but this isn't free country. So, you must give me some of your Gold. Maybe about... 3000 Gold" said Potion seller grinned.


"Easy there, Damon. We just have to buy 5 ethers from him, it isn't somekind of S-rank missions." said Yuuya, tapping Damon's shoulder.

"5 ethers please, and let me guess. It's 500 gold right?" said Yuuya.


"I guess kiddo Yuuya now know all price of potions, as your father loves to come here." said potion seller smiled. Then he handed down 5 ethers and Yuuya picked it into inventory.

 

Damon shrugged and nodded, "Yes, Sir." He nodded, then looked at Yuuya who had appeared behind him.

"Uh, yeah... sorry... I'm just pretty excited... and, errm... it's my first time..." Damon said, looking up at Yuuya then back at the clerk.

Damon handed some gold to the man and looked at Yuuya as they left, "What about weapons, and... and food?" He asked, wondering if ethers were enough for a mission.

Damon was new to all of this, and was naïve when it came down to con-men like the clerk. Damon was happy that Yuuya had saved him from paying too much for five ethers.

 

"Don't worry, Deicius only ordering us to buy this ethers. Beside, he will take the ethers and the money back." said Yuuya, who was listening to music, but the volume is lower. "I am inexperienced too and new to this, but my father always going to potion shop, so that i learned a lot in there." said Yuuya.

"Lets get back to the office and call it for a day." said Yuuya.

Meanwhile...

Myre, Zion, Gamlin, Zephyr, and Myles walked to academy at same time. They already got the staff, and decided to end the mission. Myre looked to Zephyr who didn't talk a single thing.

"Why so calm? Is anything wrong?" asked Myre to Zephyr.

 

Zephyr looked over to Myre, "Not really..." He shrugged, "Just a little... I don't know... tired maybe?" Zephyr asked himself, he hadn't known why he'd been so quiet, maybe it was because

*meanwhile*

Damon yawned, "Tomorrow will we get to equip weapons to our inventory?" He asked Yuuya.

 

"Take it easy then. It was your first day and you already worn out like this. Make sure to be fit on next day." said Myre.

Both of the groups show up in the front of academy, they surprised that they found each other at same time in same place.

".....lets to the office?" said Yuuya, which everyone nodded.

They are walked together inside the academy. Myre looked at the window, it was already sunset. After a quite lot steps, they are found themselves in front of Deicius's office.

Deicius heard door knocked, and he allowed them to in. He smiled to see them came. "Finish the mission?" asked Deicius, which makes everyone nodded.

"Thank you, here's your reward." said Deicius. All of them got 200 golds, which that should finish their first job.

All of them walked to outside the academy, they are prepared to going home. "Right folks, metcha next time!" said Yuuya as he walked to his house alone.

"Tomorrow must be an important day, i should prepared." thought Myre.

 

"Day flies even when there is nothing to do."Gamlin said before turning to the rest of the group."Hey,may have been way too easy,but it was bein with you guys and gals.Til tomorrow?"He asked the group,or atleast the ones who had not left yet.He had his deck out again and was shuffling it,then picked out the top card when he stopped..'Huh,the Joker?Maybe this place will be more interesting then i thought it would be."Whenever Gamlin shuffled his deck then picked the first card,it usually shaped how he thought the way things would work out with something,and it seemed to work in most cases.He had only gotten the Joker once before,and that was probably the most interesting day of his life,the day in which he did so was also the day he learned his Aerial Ace attack that helped him fight of some bullies when he was younger.It was the reason he kept this deck with him at all times.

 

"I suppose so, i don't know if Deicius gonna change it or not. We'll just see at tomorrow, maybe something even interesting will come out tomorrow." said Myre. She looked at the sky. The sun is already down, only turned into moon that shines throughout Terra. She looked at the stars and she remembered when she was child. She counted them with her mother, every one of it but ends nothing. The stars are just too many, yet they tried so hard.

"Well, i should say see you guys tomorrow." said Myre as she waved to them and get separated to her path to her house..

 

"Bye Myre!" Myles cheerfully called as he waved back. He couldn't wait to get home to tinker with some more things. Which reminded him, he still had to figure out why his construct absolutely shattered. But, he just shrugged at the thought, and kept on walking to the dorm where he currently lived.

 

Damon waved goodbye and tucked away into his bed in his dorm room- dreams passed his mind. About fire, perhaps? He didn't know- though it was a warm feeling, a feeling one serenity. I feeling that he belonged somewhere finally.

Damon curled up into the fetal-position in his bed, him being tucked in under FOUR down comforters. Now that was hot, though Damon LOVED the hot- but ironically, he liked being cold more than being hot.

Like December, also ironically the year he was born in. As a baby- Damon could've heated up his whole house that Winter.
Damon smiled in his sleep. "Good night... Academy... and friends..." He muttered softly in his dreams.

 

Gerik and Zion both walked to their rooms. "Zion, buddy ol' pal. Tomorrow we get to bring our weapons to class."

"Don't be too excited by that Gerik." Zion retorted. "You may be allowed to bring it, but you can still get it taken away."

"I know. Don't worry. I won't actually bring it out unless asked." Gerik paused for a moment. "Lemme guess. You held back and let the new kids learn to buy weapons."

"Yep. Boy were they suprised to learn how expensive the weapons get. The cheapest weapon in the whole shop was 300 gold."

"There was this one guy in my group. I guess he thought we were on a fighting mission. He kept on worrying about getting damaged and whatnot. He kept on asking about all different types of medicine."

They split paths, heading in different directions now to their rooms.

Gerik got into his room. A case was leaning against a wall near his bed. His gunblade was stored in there. It had remained untouched all summer long.

 

Yuuya was on his room, while his music player plays loudly, he was gonna take a sleep because in the next morning will be important as they should bring their weapons. "Got to get up early." said Yuuya, then he jumped to his bed and take some rest, who that know what will happen tomorrow...

Meanwhile....
A young man sat on the throne, looked to the map that comes from supercomputer. He decided to call his servant, which he came shortly after. “Bring Trois here, i have something to talk with him.” said the young man. The servant immediately moved to call Trois.

He was an 26 years old man with blue hair. He wears a cloak that hided both of his arms. Step by step to closer into the throne, the blue haired man kneel to young man.

“What are your orders, my lord?” asked Trois. The young man immediately order him to stand up.

“I want to know our status with Micro today. I wonder if they still resist to our ruthless efforts.” said the young man.

Trois stood up and looked to the map. “Yes, they are much prefer to protect the citizens than fight back, however their tactics are cunning. They could countered our attack and swept out or army.” said Trois.

“I suggest we should need to send some spies in there, perhaps to their academy. I heard that they accept new students.” said Young Man.

“What a perfect plan, my lord. No wonder you already surpassed your father.” said Trois.

“Please, take some comfort. You don’t have to call me ‘my lord’. You know that my name is Gerard.” said Gerard.

“Send our young and loyal troops to their academy and take any information about it, then we strike from behind.” said Gerard.

“Yes, Gerard.” replied Trois. As then he left his chamber and walking to outside. "And we will meet again..." thought Trois grinned and letting out a laugh.

*End of the first day*

2nd Day....

It was an early morning, like usual. Where everyone mostly still sleeping on their bed, Myre was doing some exercise, such as squats and push-ups.

"Done..." said Myre after such long exercise, then she walked to her room and taking some bath. Shortly after prepared, she picked up her broadsword and finally started to go to school.

"Wonder what will happen today..." thought Myre.

 

Gamlin had found himself up earlier then usual.This did not surprise him,it had happened before,so he just went with it and got up.Soon he was sitting at a table playing the card game War with himself.He never could keep one set of cards complete detached from the other like he heard the best could,but he still managed to have fun with it.Soon he started just shuffling his deck again and walked out the door,going to take a small walk before going to school.He decided to take the long way since he had the time.

 

Damon's eyes blinked "seven twenty-three"? Damon felt like he had over slept, though no one really told him what time to wake up.

Damon sat up, gave himself a nice stretch as he yawn deeply, and slowly sat out of bed.
The sun was hitting Damon's face ever since seven o'clock. He was in love with that feeling, almost like being lightly toasted with the sun tickling his nose. Almost like a mother to him, which helped him get past the thought of really having no mom.

Damon sneezed because of all the dust in the air and got out of bed, doing a couple of stretches and hurrying down to get some food.

 

Myles was to be found putting the finishing touches on his main weapons, synchronizing trigger mechanisms, early in the morn. Satisfied, he threw on a brown trenchcoat and stuffed a handful of gears, a multipurpose tool, and several small pieces of metal into his left pocket. A toaster by the door shot up toasted bread just as he was leaving, a hand snapping out and grabbing the piece. And thus, he got to the Academy.

 

Myre arrived at the classroom, it was her shock to see Yuuya who was already in there. He looked to Myre who just came. "Dunno why i wake up like this." said Yuuya who was listening to music. Then Myre decided to put her bags and waiting for others to came.


Two students just came to the front of the academy, one wears hat and gloved with some scars on his face. The other one is a guy who has black hair. He wears cloak that almost cover his whole body, he looked more like 17 beside that he in fact was 15.

"So this is the academy, Rez? And we should to study in here and gathering information? What a pain... We just like Trois's pawn, don't you think?" asked Gray to Rez.

 

Gerik woke up, same time as usual. He got up, took his gunblade out of its case. He grabbed several 'rounds' that were also stored in the case. Now, for those of you who don't know what they are, the rounds are basically bullets that one puts into the gunblade. So when the trigger is pulled, the bullet fires, causing the gunblade to vibrate and cause more damage.

Gerik walked over to Zion's room. He was about to start knocking on the door to wake Zion up. His hand was about to touch the door when a blue staff knocked his hand down. "I'm awake." Zion said from behind Gerik.

"Took you long enough." Gerik replied.

"Right. Because me waiting out here for ten minutes, while you slept, took long enough. Let's hurry up and get to class."

"That's the spirit."
