Umm, so I've been away for a while now. It's (kinda) because I've been really tired, had a crappy lead-up to Christmas, had an okay Christmas, had a okay lead-up to New Years, had a crappy stay-up-till-one-in-the-morning New Years Eve, and suffered from sleep-deprivation from all of that. It's also because of me procrastinating like crazy. Mainly because I've been reading this really good light novel series for about 2 months now called Coiling Dragon. If you want to read it, search up 'wuxiaworld' on Google, then go to 'completed', then click 'Coiling Dragon'. It's frankly amazing. Putting that aside, I've also (finally) begun writing the next chapter of 'A New World' under the bugging of fluffernutter2 . Not to mention, I've undertaken the task to edit TheOkayKing 's Ace Fighter Online. So yeah.

"But there were some things I believed in. Some things I had faith in. And faith isn't about perfect attendance to services, or how much money you put on a little plate. It isn't going sky clad to the Holy Rites, or meditating each day upon the divine.
Faith is about what you do. It's about aspiring to be better and nobler and kinder than you are. It's about making sacrifices for the good of others - even when there's not going to be anyone telling you what a hero you are."
- Jim Butcher (Changes (The Dresden Files #12))

"Pfffft. Cosa diavolo era che per Elise?! (What the hell was that for Elise?!)" I yelled. Yeah, she'd gotten into my room. It wouldn't have been hard for someone of her skill to do so. But seriously. Elise had poured water all over me. Sure I didn't get wet but everything else had. I glared at her. "Get out of my room so I can change." I growled. She jumped out the window. I got changed into my uniform and unbarricaded the door. Surprisingly, or maybe not, Evie, Conner, Edward and Elise were already up.
"I'm going out for a jog. Anyone want to join me?" I asked. Everyone shook their heads no. I sighed in slight disappointment, then remembered one thing. "Oh, and also, don't bother making breakfast. Just head to the dining pavilion when you hear the conch horn." I waited for affirmations. Hey! I do know big words! Anyways, I headed out after I got nods or okays from everyone, including a tired Jacob who had come staggering down the stairs half-way during my explanation. I walked to the border and started jogging just inside of it, following it around the hill, then onto the beach, and the edge of the forest, and repeat. I was on my, what? 5th lap? when I heard the conch. I jogged to the dining pavilion and walked inside.
-Skipping Breakfast-
Chiron stomped his hoof, definitely hoof, onto the ground. "I would like to announce that the Assassins-" He was interrupted by wild chattering and speculations.
"Assassins?! They're Assassins?!"
"I heard that.."
"Are they going to kill us?"
"WE'RE ALL GONNA DIEEEEEEE!!" Needless to say, several people were in hysterics.
"ENOUGH!!" I roared, slamming my hand onto the table for emphasis. Shocked silence immediately descended. "Thank you. Please continue, Director Chiron."
"Yes. As I was saying," He sent a meaningful glance at the campers, "The Assassins will be taking over your training. Everyone is to participate. Schedules are to be dictated by your new trainers. Report to the Arena when you are finished." Already finished, us Assassins left at the same time, ignoring the heated whispers following us out.
