《Class Incognito》Admiral of Rimetide (3)
Advertisement
My mind was racing, and my heart was burning... Why? Elios would never fight as long as no one provokes him. So why?
I got to the front of the Lune Building, Argent McKenna, his proud grin and his gleeful gray eyes, was standing picturesque on the lying body of Elios. My little brother. His face all beaten up, blue patches were dominant on his face, and... was that blood coming out of his forehead?
'Don't tell me you're still thinking on calming down?'
SNAP!
Something, I don't know what, cracked like a whip inside me. Blood was rushing towards my whole face, my whole body shuddered and felt hot. Even the pain from my encounter with Diego didn't mattered. I think I just popped a vein... What was this?
'Well... This is a new side of you. Anxiety out, in comes unbridled-'
Fury. I feel it now... It felt... Uncontrollable. I made my way towards the center but a hand suddenly grabs me and drags me away. I didn't look at who was dragging me away because I was keen on saving Elios.
"Let me go..." I said in a quiet but seething voice.
"I know how you feel but causing a scene here will make Elios an even easier target." That voice... Blake. I turned to face him, he was facing in front so it was impossible for me to read his face. But... I don't know why and how, I somehow forced myself out of his grip and pushed Argent off of Elios. Sending him flying towards the parasols.
I ran towards Elios and helped him up. He was bruised up pretty badly, his cheeks were black and blue. His nose was bleeding, and his was his forehead. His left leg was also broken and his right shoulder was slightly dislocated.
"B-big red?" He mutterted weakly, his voice was croaky and strained.
"Don't talk. Focus on my voice for now." I said, my anger still isn't subsiding. How do I subside my anger?
"What's this? Is he your servant or something Elios?" Argent gloated and I glared at him. The glare sent chills over the whole bystanders, some even stumble down, but Argent kept his swagger.
"I'll watch my mouth if I were you pal. Don't escalate this wee problem any further." I warned him.
"Touched a nerve kid? Oh I remember you... You and I have a fight later right? Would be a blast beating the shit out of y-"
His sentence was cut off short when a blast of water douses him from head to toe. His teeth chattering from the sudden downpour.
"Heh, guess your uniform isn't water proof." Vann came in front of us and he nods his head as if saying.
'Take him away.'
I mouthed a thanks and head over to the Valley Building, which is the large lime-green coded building for staff members and recreation.
"Hang on just a wee bit longer E. Brother's got you." I reassured him. Argent McKenna... I'll make you pay.
I led Elios towards the Nurse's office and we were met by a middle aged man with deep blue hair and lime green eyes. His expression turned from apathy to annoyance.

"Another skirmish? Who's he?" He asks with rude tone.
"My brother. Please help him." I said and he sighs. He assigns him to a bed as he treats the external wounds. Elios was wincing in pain but I could feel his mind calming down.
"Is he going to be all right?" I asked, my anger was still present but my concern was stronger that it subsided.
"He'll be fine. Trust me, there are other students who come here with more aggravating wounds for me to deal with." The doctor said as he leaves Elios to rest. He was now concocting a
"Thanks um..."
"Lucas Belforma. Patron of Medicine of Lupus Alma." He said with a slightly irritable tone. "He's your brother right? What's his name and Class so I could excuse him for the day."
I gave him Elios' full name and Doctor Belforma slammed his fist on the nearby table. His expression was dark and scary. Numerous cotton swabs and forceps flew and fell on the floor.
"Fuck... Sorry. It's just..." Doctor Belforma sighed and sits down. Seeing him breakdown like this reminds me of Dad when someone gets adopted.
"Never knew that the Noan's still live on." He said. "When I graduated and left the Orphanage, I never returned. It was foolish of me. But still, Reginald never forgot, so he sent you two to drive me insane."
"Sir, if you don't mind me asking... do you know my Dad?" I asked.
"I did... Best Friend a broken man like me could ever have. But enough mushy stuff. How did this happen?"
I recount the story for him. Apparently, according to the minds I've read, and the memories of the bystanders. Elios was provoked by Argent, who called Conner and Keith as weaklings, Dad as a bleeding heart nobleman, and mom... a whore.
When Doc heard that, his eyes radiated murder. He then checked the calendar.
'Tomorrow's my payday, I should cash in and commit homicide after.' Doc's mind said and I shuddered. Is this guy really a medical practitioner?!
"Sir... I don't think that will solve anything." I said and he looked surprised. And I signaled that I have Telepathic abilities as well.
"A talented kid. Anyways, you should head back. Give this letter to the reception area in the Lune Building, they'll inform Elios' teachers. Plus, I've called for Hal. Just make sure the bastard who did this to him doesn't come in contact with Hal."
I didn't understand what he meant but I kept it in mind. After passing the letter it was finally time, Practical Assessment. Professor Blackwood's class. And my fight with Vann and Argent is coming at last.
"Hey short stuff, got a minute?" It was the gray haired girl, she looked pissed off for some reason but I feel like she was holding it in. And short stuff?! Okay so I am a few inches shorter than Elios, but I'm not that short!
"You're that girl from before. What do you want? I'm not late yet aren't I?" I said in a pissed off tone.

"Easy with the hostilities Callahan, I'm just here because my cousin wanted to make sure Elios is all right." She raised her hands in surrender, but talking about Elios makes me even more hostile towards her.
"Leave my brother out of this." I said indignantly, I don't know how to control my anger, it justs... spouts all of its own.
"Overprotective... I see why the boss wants you." She smiles and just leaves. "Good luck in your fight later. Give Vann a good thrashing for me would you."
She even knows Vann? Just who are they? I shake off the thought and head over the changing room. The Uniform was a sleeveless black turtleneck inlaced with mythril powder, the pants were regular fabric reinforced with soft steel bindings, our shoes were regular black and white sneakers.
Everyone was already gathered and the ring was already primed and ready. Argent McKenna was already stretching and Vann was still sleeping. Professor Blackwell was giving me a pitiful look.
"Ok welcome to Practical Assessment Class-A and Scholars. We have no lesson for today, since we're all going to be witnessing a three way bout. And no, you are not allowed to make bets so please don't I want to keep my job." The kids groaned when the professor said that.
"Argent McKenna, Vann Alencon, and Marc Noan. Step forward and take your positions." Professor Blackwell called.
The three of us head for the arena, an octagon with a protective cage, suitable for protecting the crowd from rogue abilities.
"The fight begins at the third bell." Professor Blackwell said.
First Bell.
"Nervous sea pup?" Vann asked.
Second Bell.
"Remember what I did to Elios? I'll do it to you too." Argent smirked.
Third Bell.
"I'll make you eat those words..." I said quietly and grabbed Argent with Telekinesis. Sky blue energy enveloped his body and his smug look disappeared instantly.
"W-what's with this ability?" He asked, terror laced in his voice.
"Did you really think I'll let you clone yourself?" I tried to say it calmly, but the vehemence was so audible it made everyone stop cheering.
"Hurting my brother... Insulting my brothers... calling my parents a bleeding heart and a whore..." I approached him, I don't know my facial expression but I can tell from the crowd's reaction. I was hell bent on hurting him, unbridled fury controlled my whole body. I moved my left hand slightly and dislocated Argent's right shoulder. "Seems like everyone here has a death wish."
His screams of pain filled the silent arena. Tears and spit were flying off of him. But somehow... It became music to my ears.
'It's not enough... More... Make him suffer.' My rage whispered on my ears and I consolidated psychokinetic energy on my palm and it turned to a blunt object. Then I flung it toward him, hitting his left leg, breaking it indefinetely.
"Y-you dirty bastard! Don't you know who I am?!" Argent screamed.
"You mistake me for someone who gives a shit..." I replied in a senseless matter-of-fact tone and slammed him down the ground, I then made a slashimng motion and a wave of telekinetic energy slams him towards the wall. Knocking him out cold and bleeding.
"P-please... have mercy..." He pleaded, tears streaming down his once proud and smug face.
"Mercy? I am no saint who grants mercy pal. You messed with my brother, talked absolute rubbish about my family. But... I'll at least give you a wee bit of clemency. You won't die, but you won't feel your limbs either." I snapped coldly.
But before I move in to hurt Argent further, a torrent of water gushes towards me, but I re-directed it away. Spreading it across the whole arena.
"Shit sea pup... Calm down." He said and my eyebrows twitch in annoyance. Will he stop calling me that?!
"I'll deal with you later." I said and focused on Argent again, but he was already outside the ring.
'No... Why is he...' I thought but a snowball hits my head. Vann was smiling as he conjures another snowball and throws it at me again.
"Now we're alone here, get ready! This is my first time fighting a Psionic." Vann cracked his knuckles in anticipation. He surged forward with sled of Ice and drift, splashing water to deny my vision. I felt Vann tackling and pinning me on the ground.
Anger roared in my ears, I slammed the ground and a pulse of telekinesis knocks Vann off of me, His smile wiped off his face as he flies through the air, but he manages to throw a spear of ice, breaking my focus.
"Hey calm down! This is just a sparring session!" Vann said as he lands safely.
"Calm down? He beat up my brother... insulted my family... How can I calm down?" I asked, sky blue energy was enveloping the whole arena, charging the place with telekinetic energy. One more snap from me, this arena will turn into a meteor.
Professor Blackwell was shouting something but I wasn't listening. My anger was reaching its breaking point. Vann was bracing himself from my attack. I moved my right hand slowly and was about to crash the arena down when:
"B-big red!"
Elios' voice snapped me out from my trance, I looked at him, he was in a wheelchair and he has a look of horror in his face. Was... Was he afraid of me?
My anger disappated and the energy disappears, but Vann took it as an opportunity to grab my shoulders, jumping over me, and encasing me and my limbs in a frigid coffin. The cold was enough to sap my strength and my anger. I feel myself numbing and unable to move.
At the corner of my eye, I hear Professor Blackwell barking orders to help McKenna, with my fading consciousness, I just heard Vann saying something before I black out from the strain and overuse of my ability:
"Congrats Sea Pup... You pass."

A God's Champion
James was an Operator who had the misfortune to die in battle. Instead of his soul moving on to his just reward, it is intercepted, and James finds himself on a new mission.

After creating a great character and making it to the end of the first act, you realize that, although your character may be kewl, it is gimped and will not survive until the end of the game. Going back to the start, you create a new character with the knowledge you gained from playing the game and perhaps, peeking at the manual.
