It's finally day 1 of training. We were advised to come atleast 30 minutes before training starts to get heads up and get an observation on the surrounding area and to basically socialise with the class.
Once I step foot into the giant auditorium behind the school, I can tell everyone's hyped on what will happen.
Jett said she'll be late so can't wait up on her.
I walk towards a random group and immediately make my introduction.
"Hey guys, I'm Phoenix! Um you're the one sitting beside me.. right?"
"Oh yeah, I'm Iso. Nice to meet you." He holds his hand out expecting a handshake.
"Nice to meet you too!" I give him a firm handshake and turn to look at the others in the group.
"Soo what are your guy's names?"
"Im Klara but it seems we're exchanging codenames and um you can call me Killjoy!"
"Killjoy.. Oh! I know you! I'm pretty sure Raze has mentioned you here and there before. So you're the lucky gal!"
"O-oh she has?" Killjoy starts blushing profusely. Attempting to hide her face with her hat she says "Well I guess Raze and I are quite close heh.."
"And you are..?" I turn to the green haired fellow to the right of me.
"Huh? Oh my bad! Im Gekko, I'm in the class next to you." He pats my shoulder.
"Ohh I was thinking where I'd seen you before. Um so do you guys know what we're getting into today?" I ask looking around.
"The principal announced right before you entered that they will be doing the evaluation today to see what they can improve." Iso looks at me with a blank stare.
"Huh.. so like shooting and dodging stuff?"
"Yes... Like. That." He says with a confused face.
-------------------------------------------------------
Chatting with Iso, Kj, and Gekko was fun but considering we only have 10 minutes left before training starts. I unconsciously search the room for Yoru. Waiting for my eyes to lock onto a blue headed guy. Someone rests their arm on my shoulder and I jump back.
"Woah chill! It's just me."
"Jett! I thought you weren't coming."
"I was planning to but since Neon's my neighbor she decides to pay a visit and dragged me here right before training..."
"Well you're just in time. Oh and on the way here did you see Yoru anywhere?"
"Yoru? You mean that rift boy? I saw him taking a stroll at the garden. Asked him where he's going and he said 'anywhere away from the auditorium' Soo not sure what his deal was. Why, what's up with him?"
"Oh nothing. Just surprised..."
In the brief moment of silence a ringing from the speakers are heard.
"Ahem. Good morning students of Valorant High, I am Principal Brimstone and today marks the very first day of training.
As you all may know, ever since the first storm appeared life for all had changed, and tht means people also change."
"We have set up this auditorium so that every day after school you will head here to train. You all have a very. Very. Speacial gift and it would be a shame if we don't manifest it to it's true power."
Miss Viper stands up from the sides and takes over.
"We will be evaluating your knowledge on gunfire, tactics, athletics and overall IQ. If any of you have a medical condition, feel free to tell any of our staff so we can change the routine accommodating to your needs. Good luck and in the long run, the strongest succeed."
As a final last resort, I come to find Yoru is nowhere in the building. It feels... Wrong to do it without him here...
"Ahem. We'll start with attendence then. Starting with class 1 Blossom..."
Attendence? Dang then that means Yoru might get in trouble... Wait. Why do I care? Id much rather be with Jett and the others then that asshole.
So why do I feel so down with him not being here?
-------------------(Locker room)-------------------
" If I knew we needed to wear these shorts in this weather I wouldn't have come all together!" Gekko turns to both iso and I in an awkward pose.
"Like look at me! I'm gonna be freezing..."
"I don't know... I just feel it's a bit impractical but I guess they value movement?"
The uniform we have to wear are shorts in a length just above the knees and a white t-shirt with the school logo thats 2 sizes too small for the three of us.
"Is it just me or are these shirts wayy to small for us?" I say.
We all look at the nearest floor mirror near us. The shirt is basically just highlighting my abs and although uncomfortable makes me look ripped.
"Sheesh! You're totally right!" Gekko exclaims as he flexes at the mirror.
I look around the room, trying to catch Yoru somewhere, staring.
No signs.
