The Villain I am Not

Prologue

"We are souls of light.... in the dark, we shine. We are guardians of the world against the darkness."

Our lives where so much easier, before I decided to become a guardian of light, everything changed. The year is 2845, it's not the kind of future you have in mind. The world is divided by two great empires, light and dark. The mayor cities and larger continents belong to the dark empire, small cities and wastelands to the light empire. But let's not call them light side or dark side, let's call them by their rightful names: The empire of Nemsword and the Mythir reign. Both powerful and in constant war. The story I'm about to tell you, started two years ago, when I decided to join the light guardians. I am Amberle Namir, I am from a small town called Seratia, from the Mythir Reign. I live by myself, been like it since I have memory, my parents, they never existed for me. I was raised by an old lady from town. All of this started when I met my fate. It was a raining morning, I woke up late, so I had to run to the station so I could take the next ship that would transport me to the test to join the light guardians. I am a girl, most of the guardians are boys or old people, no young boys or girls dared to sign in, they were afraid of the Nemsword empire. I have been waiting to join since I was six years old. Been a light guardian was so exiting! you get to travel to different planets and galaxies in order to restore peace and light. The most important duty was to protect the innocents and fight the Darkness.

when I finally arrived at the temple, I was surprised that I wasn't the only one young. Around Twenty males and females where waiting to enter the temple and take the trials to become Light guardians. The trials are very hard everyone was talking about them, and it required all the concentration, one false answer and you don't qualify.

When everyone reached the temple gates, the masters of the council where waiting for all of the new recruits to gather. One of them was Master Yookai, the most powerful light guardian in ages, he was surrounded by three apprentices, one of them totally took my attention, he was tall, long black haired, slim but in shape from obvious training. what called my attention? He was serious, his eyes always down and he looked sad from my point of view. The other two were just smiling to every other girl that looked at them and they were talking. I looked at him several times, on one time, he looked at me, I smiled and blushed so I looked away, his sad eyes turned puzzled as he didn't smile back, he looked back down, and I was so embarrassed.

" Gather everyone!! The first Trial will begin NOW! Please form a line and prepare to start your journey!" -master yookai said loud

The first trial was simple but hard, sitting with one of the masters and answer a lot of questions, each one more difficult and trickier. I manage to calm myself and survived the first trial. The second trial started shortly; it was more intense. It was an obstacle race but with training combat enhanced, we had to reach the end by fighting holograms. I almost got eliminated around four times, but I managed to keep on track. The third trial was the hardest. only a few had reached it. I was very lucky to be among the few, but my luck was about to be tested. The final trial, a combat with one of the apprentices of Master Yookai. One Guy was before me, Atlus, he was strong and agile, he was tall, very muscular and great shape, one of master's Yookai apprentices stepped in and started to fight Atlus. It was a good match, both of them show great skills, Atlus finished the combat and won, he defeated his opponent. Next, it was me... I grabbed the weapon to face my opponent, an energy sword of light and stepped into the arena, nervous, I was not ready to be there. A few seconds passed and my opponent was revealed, it was HIM, the guy that called my attention before! Adam Walst was his name, in a mean way, he took out his energy sword and turned on violently. His sword of light was different, it sounded violent, raw and of different color. He ran straight to attack me, and I fell to the ground unprepared. He was strong, I could feel it!
