-ALRIGHT MEN!!! -yelled an imposing voice. -YOU MEN ARE HERE BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BECOME SOLDIERS!! YOU MEN ARE HERE BECAUSE WAR EXISTS!! A MAN IS BRAVE! LOYAL! AND ABOVE ALL HONEST! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?!!?

-Hard not to, right pal? -whispered someone to another knight.

-DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING INTERESTING TO SHARE... MAN!?! -Sir Gareth yelled.

-uh.. uh... NO SIR!!! -he said yelling.

-YOU MEN ARE NEWBIES! YOU HAVE A LOT OF THINGS TO LEARN!

-He uses the word men too much, don't you think? -the same boy whispered to the same person next to him.

-HEY! NEWBIE! 100. -Sir Gareth just said.

Without complaining, he did 100 push-ups.

-I'm not going to be your only professor! My partner is also helping me!

After saying this, another knight appeared. He was walking proudly with his sword on his hand with a posture as if he owned the world.

-Prince Alexander will be here all the time as he also is in training.

-My only desire is for all of you that are here to work hard and with the only goal to serve our kingdom.

Alexander started to stare all of them. But his eyes caught someone...

-What's your name? -he asked approaching him.

-Uhh... I-I'm... Derybur...

-Waw... that's an unusual name. -Alex laughed. -Are you a foreign?

-Yes! Yes! Uh... my country send me!

-ALRIGHT! LUNCH TIME MEN! ! -Sir Gareth screamed.

-And that's how you fight. -said sir Gareth after a demonstration with Alexander. -Understood?

-Yes, sir! -they yelled.

-Everybody pick a partner!

Derybur stood there alone but with a straight posture. Alexander look ed at him and approached.

-Would you mind if we stay together?

-...uh... No, sir!

-You don't need to do that formality with me.

He smiled. And started the sword fighting training. Alex had fast and precise moves. His hand moved with confidence always commanded by his hand. Derybur had a different style. His arms moved as if it was dancing. His sword moved with tension but also passion.

-You're too tense. -Alex said to him. -Try to relax more.

The other one did so. As he got better, sir Gareth watched him cautiously with surprise on his eyes.

At night, the knights pupils went to their rooms. Each room had eight beds. Derybur went to his and when he opened the door, he stood there wide eyes and frozen. Everyone was dressing... when they saw him they started to talk to him.

-Hey, Dery!

-Sir Gareth was really looking at you in class!

-In my opinion, he was really amazed by those moves.

-He, he, he... -he laughed while blushing. -Y-yeah... that's me...

He started to walk fast to his bed that was near the window.

-Going to bed already?

-Yeah... I'm... oooohhh... -he yawned. -I'm really tried so... good night, guys.

-Aren't you going to take a bath?

-Uh... not today...

They stared at him surprised and trying to survive to the smell that came from him.

Then he quickly made himself into the bed and covered all his body. There, he started to breath really fast trying not to hear the voices above.

He was smelling really bad. The sweat on his back and under the armpit were as wet as a waterfall. He uncovered his head to see If everyone was a sleep and made his way out the room. Slowly and silently he went to the lake to take a bath. Why now? He approached the lake and undressed himself and entered on the cold water of the night. He dove in the water and when he came out, his blue hair was curly. My mistake.. I meant her blue hair...
