Cyrus and his six students head off to Class A, and Cygil takes his eight students to Class B.
“Or now, go ahead and pick any seat.” says Cygil, motioning towards the eight desks lined up in two rows of four, “How about we start with introductions? I’ll go first, and then we’ll go down the list of the order you were accepted. Even though the order has no value, I hope you can use it as motivation to move up the list. Anyways, like I already said, my name is Cygil Rozer. I’m twenty-seven years old, and this will be my fourth year of teaching here. My Trait is called Magnet, and as the name implies, I can attract objects just like a magnet can, but that’s enough about me. Kareem, you’re up first.”
“I expected I’d be first.” says Kareem, “My name is Kareem Coleman. I’m sixteen and my birthday is on July eighth. As of right now, I don’t think any of you are on my level, so hurry and get strong enough to keep up with me. My Trait is called Phantom Punch. That’s about it.”
*Kareem is 5 foot 9. He has short black hair and dark brown eyes. Although he unintentionally comes off as cocky, Kareem wants everyone around him to grow stronger so they can protect people together. His Trait, “Phantom Punch,” makes his punches seem further or closer than they actually are. It may look as if you dodged his attack, but then you’ll get hit with his seemingly invisible real punch.*
“No way this guy was chosen before me…” Zachary mumbles under his breath.
“Next up is Zachary.”
“Yippie, second place!” Zachary says sarcastically, “Anyways, weaklings, my name is Zachary Nelson. My birthday is on April seventh, and I am sixteen years old. Unlike most of you, I’m strong. My Trait is called Limit Breaker.”
*Zachary is 5 foot 8. He has black hair and silver-colored eyes. Being a hothead for most of his life, Zachary has been in many fights with kids above his age and even unlocked his Trait during one. He was found later knocked out, but the person he fought was in critical condition.*
“Limit Breaker sounds cool!” asks Apollo, “What is it?”
“If you didn’t interrupt me, maybe you wouldn’t have to ask.”
“Jeez, man, my bad...”
“Zack, be nice!” snaps Amber, “All he did was ask you a question.”
“Yeah, whatever. Limit Breaker allows me to produce more than the normal Spiritual Energy output limits, boosting my stats. It also has multiple forms, but I can only use the first one for now.” Zachary glances at Kareem, “So, you still think you can take me down?”
“Of course I do. Your Trait is not enough to surpass me.”
“Rivalries are already brewing. I like that. Kye and Kian, you’re next.”
“My name is Kye Carter. I’m fifteen, and I was born on November sixth. My favorite thing to do is train with Jackson and my brother. My Trait is Lightning Manipulation.”
*Kye is about 5 foot 8. He has black hair that naturally flows to the right and blue eyes like his mother. Kye can sometimes be reckless and rush into things, but he does have a good head on him and sticks to his morals. His Trait, “Lightning Manipulation”, allows him to control all forms of lightning and electricity.*
“So, Zachary and Kareem, I’ll gladly take you two on as well.”
“Fine by me.” says Kareem, “It’ll be a big help to you.”
"Who invited you?" asks Zachary.
“Did they both just brush me off…” Kye wonders.
“Hey everyone, my name is Kian Carter, Kye’s twin brother. I also like to train, but my favorite hobby is beating my brother in all types of games. Oh, and I have two traits, Fire Manipulation and Ice Manipulation.”
*Kian looks almost completely identical to Kye. However, Kian’s hair flows to the left. Kian will do whatever it takes to help a friend in need and is always the one to stop Kye when he gets too reckless. Fire Manipulation allows him to control all types of fire, and Ice Manipulation allows him to control all types of ice.*
“Well, okay then, my name is Jackson Price. I’m sixteen years old and my birthday is on the tenth of April. I like to read old books about powerful Warriors in my spare time. My Trait is called Power Gauge."
*Jackson is 5 foot 7. He has brown hair and eyes and always wears his signature red glasses. Jackson is naturally very book-smart, so he can take the lessons he’s learned and apply them almost instantly. Power Gauge allows him to accurately gauge someone's power level before battle.*
“This nerd was chosen to go to this school?” Zachary mumbles under his breath.
“Ah, a fellow bookworm! We’ll have to discuss books in the future. In the meantime, Amber, you're next.”
“Oh, okay! Hi, everyone. My name is Amber Burns. I’m sixteen years old and my birthday is on March twenty-second. I hope to become great friends with all of you!”
*Amber is 5 foot 7. She has long light brown hair and pink eyes. Amber is the nicest out of all the students, but she hates it when people only know her because of her brother, so she doesn’t like to tell people they are related. Her Trait, “Infiltrate”, allows her to enter the mind of anyone they touch. What she is able to do inside their mind depends on her power level compared to her opponent.*
“Your last name is Burns?” asks Jackson, “Like Jett Burns? Are you related to him?”
Amber sighs. “Yeah, Jett is my older brother.”
“Who’s this Jett guy?” asks Kye.
“He’s a B-Rank Warrior that has the power to read and manipulate minds.” says Jackson.
“That’s correct.” says Cygil, “And Amber has also awakened that power.”
“That’s super cool!” says Apollo.
“Apollo, you’re up.”
“Alright, my name is Apollo Young. I’m sixteen, my birthday is August seventh, and I’m the middle triplet. I wish I were in a class with my brothers, but I won’t let that get me down. I hope all of us become close friends. Oh, and my Trait is called Bullseye.”
*Austin, Alvin, and Apollo all are 5 foot 8. They all have short, spiky, dark green hair and brown eyes. Being identical triplets, they had to come up with a clever way for someone to differentiate the three of them, so they all chipped in to buy four identical earrings. Austin has one in his right, Alvin has one in his left, and Apollo has one in each ear. The Trait, “Bullseye”, makes Apollo deadly accurate with a bow.*
“You and your brothers all look the same.” says Kian, “How will we tell who is who?”
“That’s simple.” Apollo says, pointing to his ears, “Since I’m the middle child, I wear an earring in both ears. Austin is the oldest, so his earring is in his right ear, and Alvin is the youngest, so his earring is in his left ear.”
“Good to know, I was a little confused myself… okay, last but not least is Allen.”
“It’s fine, I expected to be last…” whispers Allen, “My name is Allen Villanueva. I am sixteen years old, and I was born on October twenty-third. Despite my looks, I’m pretty weak, so I’m here to become stronger.”
*Allen is 5 foot 11. He has black hair and brown eyes. Allen is by far the tallest and most well-built student. According to his mother, Allen first showed signs of a six-pack at age five without working out a single time.*
“Woah, I’m just now noticing how tall you are.” says Amber.
“And you’re pretty built. Do you work out often?” asks Jackson.
“Not at all, actually. I’ve always been like this.”
“You sure are blessed with a great body build. It’ll help you out in the long run.” says Cygil, “Alright, now that everyone has gone, I’ll take some time to tour you around Rozer Academy.”
The Academy’s layout is pretty straightforward. When you first walk into the building, you stand in an open lobby and hangout area. Continuing straight, a double glass door leads out into a relatively big training yard. Going left, you’ll find the first four classrooms, a nursery, and a gym with all types of weights and workout machines, while going right will lead you to the other four classrooms, a kitchen, and Ted's office.
“I know it was short, but that’s all anyone is doing today. Tomorrow, the eight of you will all complete various entrance tests to assess your current skills.” Cygil explains, “You are all free to leave, but now that you’ve all been familiarized with the Academy, feel free to stay and use any of the equipment.”
“Is there a time limit?” asks Apollo.
“Nope, feel free to stay as long as you’d like. Oh, I almost forgot to hand these out.” Cygil pulls a handful of ID cards from his back pocket and hands them out. “Scanning your ID card will open the front door so you can go in and out. They are essential, so try not to lose them, will you? I’ll be heading out now, be ready for tomorrow!”
“Goodbye, Mr. Cygil!”
The class splits up and goes their separate ways, leaving Kye, Kian, and Jackson in the lobby.
“This makes it official, guys! We’re really members of Rozer Academy!” says Jackson.
“Right, this is so cool!” says Kian, “What do you two want to do now?”
“I think I’ll stay for a while in the gym.” says Kye, “But what do you guys think the tests will be like tomorrow?”
“I assume they won’t be too difficult, probably a basic intelligence and strength test. Nothing to worry about.” says Kian.
“I wasn’t worried!” Kye snaps, “I was just curious, okay!”
“Yeah, you’ll be okay, Kye.” Jackson says jokingly, “No need to worry.”
“I’m not… whatever, you guys suck.”
The group laughs and heads to the gym.
