Zanthos and Axios's POV
-Zanthos first-
They handed me a file, gave me a task name and told me to be on my way. I ranked 2nd highest of the new fighters, scoring right behind Helios. He was a good fighter. I admired him. Today was the day I was sent to the dorms to find my navigator. I looked over his file and figured I'd know who he was as soon as I saw him, but it wasn't so easy. I am trying to find his room when I bump into this small boy. He dressed in all white, short pony tail and freckles on his cheeks. Those blue, icy eyes and a beauty mark under his lip. I was told those were his distinguished features. This is him. "Excuse me, I'm looking for my navigator. Can you help me?" I ask him. The boy nodded and seemed rather happy to help. He looked so sweet and pure. "Sure. What's his task name?" He asked. "It's Eídos." He said. As soon as I said that, his face went blank as if he had a sudden realization of something. "Eídos has been assigned a fighter. His task name is Zanthos." He said. "Yes! That's right! I'm Zanthos!" I say with a smile. "You can't be..let me see your file." He asked me. I handed it to him. His hands trembled opening it. It looked like he didn't want to believe me. "Oh god.." he said softly and turned from me to cry. "What is wrong?" I asked him. "If you're really Zanthos, then who has been in my dorm this past week?" He said with tears down his face. I stand straight up. Only one person would dare impose as me..Axios. He always thought he could take things from me but I never thought he'd go so far as to impose as me to steal my navigator away. I place my hand on his shoulder. "Take me to him. I'll set this straight." I say calmly to him. He looked like he had been betrayed. Just what had Axios done to him?
-Axios now-
I hadn't seen Eídos in a few hours. I last saw him storm off to the hanger. What was he doing? It shouldn't worry me. He already has become attached to me. It's just like Hayden said, he'll come to me soon enough. He would come to me and soon show me what he's hiding. I smile. He's under my influence. No one will break him free. As long as Zanthos doesn't interfere. I had to go through a lot of trouble to forge papers. I hear banging on the door. *sigh* Eídos knows better than to just bang on the door if he forgot his room key. I open the door to see Eídos and a tall figure behind him. Oh no. It's Zanthos.
