《Space Games: Training Phase》Chapter 1: Space Ride to Santo Paulo
Advertisement
Looking at my home world called earth for a final time, the rockets blasted off and the space shuttle was launched into space.
My name is B.E.O.R.G.E.L. but I prefer to be called Beo. No my name isn't an acronym or anything of the sorts but its a very dear name to me. The locket I hold in my hand shows a picture of a woman hugging a boy and a girl, all three smiling for the camera. The woman had short-cropped silver hair and platinum eyes. wearing a white cardigan over a green sweater and simple jeans. Her skin seemed like glass as it was smooth and shiny, no blemishes, scars, or any other object showed a hint of damaging the skin. Her smile was almost perfect, with the all white teeth in two neat rows with the exception of two fang overhangs. The two children seemed to be related as the boy had platinum eyes and silver hair with it in a simple military styled buzz cut. His skin was partially scarred and he wore the emerald and blue blazer of a school named [Sunterhill Academy]. The girl had the near perfect smile and skin of the woman, her eyes flashed a brilliant emerald and her hair was dyed teal with silver hair at the roots. The hair was fashioned into a fish tail braid, and was also wearing a [Sunterhill Academy] uniform. the boy had hardened eyes but they had a secretive glint and a hint of caring in them while the girl's eyes were cold and calculating, yet charming and fun. I closed the locket and looked at the fleeting earth as G-force was replaced by zero gravity. I floated in his seat and a low type of gravity took place.
"You may now roam about the cabin, I will inform you when we near the station" a female A.I.'s voice speaks and I unclipped the seat buckle and proceed to move toward the back of the shuttle where I could see the fleeting remains of Earth.

As the Earth disappeared in the emptiness of space, a girl jumped me and with a laugh she flipped me, sending my flying through the low gravity. " Thalia please, I am trying to enjoy my moment" I cried as I collided with the wall and sunk down to the floor. Since it was low gravity it didn't hurt that much, but I could still feel a bruise sprouting up. "Come on Beo, why can't I have a bit of fun now and again, are you saying you don't love me" Thalia giggled, and she flashed me her perfect smile. "Thalia, mother said even if your joking, don't make suggestive and misunderstood intentions or phrases" I complained to her. Thalia squatted down to pat my head and then sprung up saying "Oh no worries, no one will misunderstand my love for you" she giggled and dashed off to another compartment. "What am I going to do with you" I groaned
That girl, Thalia, was my sister. In truth her name would be T.H.A.L.E.E.N.A. but she preferred to be called Thalia and such, I always call her by that name. Her teal hair was bouncing and the fish tail braid fluttered in the low gravity. I was chasing after her to make sure she wouldn't do anything crazy when a person decided to stick out their foot to trip me. I jumped to avoid it only to find myself jumping to high and crashed into the ceiling.
A wave of laughter erupted and I sank to the floor, a few people standing above me. "Beorgel, what an interesting name, where did you get it, from the trash?" a person asked with a sneer on his face. "I don't understand what you want, but I need to find my sister" I replied, making an attempt to push past the person but he just threw me down. "Don't even think about going anywhere you filth, Silver hair, Platinum eyes, your one of them aren't you boy" the person yelled. "So what if I am, I didn't do anything" I shouted back at the boy and tried to get past him again. This time two people rushed me and pinned me to the wall. "Trying to run again, even after I told you not to bother, how arrogant can you be" the person sneered and he punched him in the guts. Punch after punch, till I was kneeling over gagging. "Ha ha ha, you think your better than us don't you, you think that we are worthless, nothing but trash, but whose the trash now huh, WHO IS IT, ANSWER ME" the person laughed madly and then he uttered out a cry of pain.

Looking up through watery eyes I see the blurred outline of my sister , her nails covered in blood and the person who was taunting and punching me now had five scratches down the side of his face. "You bitch, what do you think your doing, You can't touch me like that" the person muttered crazily, and Thalia kicked him in his third leg. "Oooh" the crowd uttered and Thalia pulled me up, dragging me away from the crowd and no one made an attempt to follow.
"That bastard, who does he think he is, claiming we are better than them, I would laugh in his face all day if he wasn't the minister's son." Thalia bared her teeth at someone passing by and kept punching the wall along the way. "Sister calm down, he didn't mean anything" I tried to comfort her but she lashed out at me. "He didn't mean anything, HE didn't mean anything. HE DIDN'T MEAN ANYTHING, Beo this is the REASON why people get their way with you. You are to passive, you are optimistic, you do not think or act on your own" Thalia ranted and she lashed out, her fist almost hitting my face. "Sorry, it was impulse, you know that when I get angry I like to hit things" Thalia murmured. "Its alright sister, just calm down, even though we were shipped out just a few moments ago, we should be arriving at the station soon, we might not even be stationed in the same quarter as that guy, by the way you said you knew who he was, so can you explain to me who he is?" I whispered to Thalia, embracing her in a hug. "The boy's code would be A.D.A.M.A.N.T.I.S but he is called Adam, and like a mantis, he likes to quickly strike at unsuspecting prey. He is the son of the governor of the Lima Sector, where... Mom lives." Thalia explains.
"So If he has his dad look us up and finds out Mother lives in his sector, what do you think he will do?" I panicked. Thalia slapped me across the face and held me still, looking into my eyes. "It's simple, just don't aggravate Adam anymore." Thalia said to me and left me where I stood.
"We are now arriving at Santo Paulo Space Academy and Training Center, We hope you enjoy your stay here for the next few years" the Female A.I. announced and I turned to look out the window to see a giant space station.
"This will be my home for a while" I sighed and made my way to a seat to fasten myself in.
[Explanation for "You must be one of them" the kid was spouting about. Beo and Thalia are a race of experimented humans with better mental and physical capabilities. This race was called Experi-Men/ Experi-Women. Despite their small numbers, they were far superior than the regular humans, and in a coup d'etat Experi-mankind took over, after a period of time known as the Ruling. a Resistance came and overthrew them. Now both humans and Experimankind live together, though Experimankind are discriminated and looked down upon (Like after Post-Civil War in America) ]
