Guardian Academy:
Chapter 3: New Year, New Class, New Rival!After the opening ceremony, the students were dismissed. Everyone headed for their classroom or where they were suppose to be. Naomi, Shira, and Izumi were all in the same first year homeroom. "Looks like the headmistress has great things in store for you." Shira said brightly as they made their way from the grand hall and into the main school building along with many of the other students. "She basically told everyone who you were, but I doubt most will know its you. Unless we've had class with them." The academy was the largest in the world most said. As there were many areas and locations for the buildings, fields, and the forests that surrounded the main campus. Only the main building(s)where the classes for the training year students was held was considered the 'real' part of the academy. The parts that made up the elementary and middle grade campuses were thought of as serpate schools on their own. But not the like the branch and special schools, those were something different.
"Either way, it makes for an interesting year." Izumi said much to Naomi's dismay. Unlike Shira, who was a basically a genius, and Naomi was an above avenge student, Izumi was the slacker of the group. She hated studying and doing any schoolwork besides field based exercises. She did them even when she didn't have to and the extra credit she got from doing some of them helped to make up the difference of her grades. It also helped to have a genius best friend who didn't mind sharing answers or helping out.
As they entered the second floor, where the first year homerooms were located, a group of people were gathered outside their classroom. "Wonder what's going on." Naomi thought to herself as the three of them pushed their way inside. The scene before them was of a girl who wore a second year chest on her shirt standing before the class and addressing the first years. "I'm Mellie, your second year advisor. You'll do as I say without question if you want this school year to go by smoothly. I was a lowly first year like all of you and this is what our advisor did to us. So it's only fair." Behind her stood her four goons, two girls and two guys, who also bore the second chest and nodded their heads in agreement.
"So all of you will be doing our chores and also, giving us your gems." Chores were what all students had to do around campus. It was a way of earning gems, which could be used as currency to buy or trade things at the different stores the academy had. The academy was like a mini town or city in that sense. Students were assigned to different staff and areas around the academy and campus to work. After several months or weeks, they could switch chores or keep the same one. Some gems could not be used for currency or trade, as they had a difference purposes.
"Now, line up against the wall, so we can divide you among ourselves." Mellie intsruted the first years. When they didn't move, she added. "Remember, we do have a say in whether or not you move onto the next year or if you can be condisered to take your full guardian test this year."
The first years got into a straight line against the wall, Naomi and her friends getting swiped along. After a moment, Izumi stepped out of line. One of the other second years saw this and asked, "Why are you out of line?"Izumi shrugged, "To crowded." Was all she said.
"I don't care if it's to hot, get back in line." He said, thinking Izumi would listen without question. When she didn't move, he got mad. "What's your name?" He demeaned, standing directly in front of her.
"Izumi, now could you back away, your breath is making my stomach turn." This got a laugh out of everyone in the room.
The guys face got red, but before he could do anything, Mellie walked over. "Do you know who your dealing with? Now, be a good little first year and listen to the older, wiser, stronger second years." She petted Izumi on the head like a little kid.
This made Izumi mad, she pushed Mellie's hand off her head. "I think, I'm dealing with a flat chested second year, who needs to bully people to feel important."
Melle's calm demeanor left her as her face began to turn red from anger. "What did you say?"
"Are you deaf as well as flat chested?" Izumi asked, smirking. "I said, your a flat chested second year who needs to bully people to feel important." Naomi and Shira were watching this, knowing that Izumi could get out of hand sometimes and take things to far. They were silently watching, knowing that Izumi could handle herself. Only jumping in when or if needed. Like when Mellie pulled her fist back to punch Izumi in the face. Just as she was about to hit Izumi, Naomi was there, easily holding Mellie's arm back. As a guard class, she was stronger and would've been able to easily take the hit. But choice not to.
"So your a soldier class, they usually don't fight hand to hand like the warrior. class does." Shira was there, beside Mellie.
"What is going on?" this came from the teacher. A young woman at the age of twenty-five and a soldier class, she was strict at times, but also just as fair. "The academy may encourage training and sparring, but not in the classroom. If you want to fight, do it in one of the practice areas. I will over see the fight, its up to you to decide the time and rules."
"Right after school, a team match followed by a singles one on one match." Izumi suggested.
"Only if it's me against you in the singles." Mellie added.
Izumi agreed and everything was set, the first changlle of the school year was arranged.
(Izumi's done it now. What will happen at the big show down after school? Find out in the next chapter of Guardian Academy!)
