Prologue: Chapter 1
Shane was starring at the man infront of him wondering, "Why is he starting to go sideways ?"
Bam
It hits him
Well the ground does
Shane was confused as to why he is on the ground but then it hits him.
Not the ground this time but his surroundings
He remembers he was sparring with a traine in hand-to-hand combat, but he knows the only way he would be on his ass right now was if the traine landed a hit on him, and a good one. Fat chance.
Shane starts to come back to reality and takes a look around. He sees his uncle Leo behind him. He was willing to bet his left arm he is the reason he's on his ass right now.
"Shane !" his uncle booms "you still letting this old man sneak up on you?"
Shane gets up ignoring his uncles taunt. "I assume you have a good reason you did that" says Shane
"But of course" Leon starts " One thing is I was testing you; you failed that, the second is Rick wanted to see you. It's important so clean yourself and hurry. I'll take your place"
As Shane walks away he can only feel sorry for the traine but then again the traine will be thankful at the end of the day as he got to train with the vertern.
Before Shane gets in the shower he looks at himself in the mirror. All he sees is the battle hardened body of a Spartan holpite with his body littered with scars ( Think Geralt from The Witcher ) After Shane gets done cleaning himself and getting dressed he looks at himself in the mirror to see if he missed anything.
Shane admires his attire as it is quite a technological achievement for his kingdom. His first layer of clothing consist of his black muscle shirt which was weaved from harvested Elder Grimm fur making it a good light armor for how thin but strong it is. For shorts he wears a dark brown leather padded robe that cuts off at his knee. For his calfs he wears a bronze colored armor which protects his front calfs but a light leather wraps around his back securing them on. For his outer layer for his torso he wears a bronze colored cuirasses that has a subtle six pack made into it. He grabs his corinthian style helmet and attaches on the back of his neck on a ring that runs around it. With a push of a button on the helmet, the helmet collapses and forms on the back of ring into a rectangular shape. The he puts on the most iconic clothing a spartan wears. His red cape. Unlike the nobles capes which cut off at the waist Shane wears a combat cape. Which means it cuts off halfway down his back. Shane then grabs his similarly iconic spartan shield which collapses around his left forearm, he the grabs his sword and spear in which the sword goes and his sheath and the spear collapsed into a small cylinder that hangs on his waist.
Shane then heads off to see Rick, wondering what his dads successor wants with him. As Shane nears the village eldors mansion he straightens his posture. Shane nears the front doors and waits to be let in by the two fellow holpites. When the one on the right openes the door Shane walks in and navigates to Ricks office.
Shane walks into Ricks office and then stands at attention asking "You needed to see me sir" Shane says while biting on the whole "sir" part
"Please Shane were friends no need for the formalities" Shane then instantly stands at ease while awaiting on the reason he was called here.
"Shane" Rick says "I have some news for you that you should be honored to hear. You've been accepted into a prestiges acadamy that trains warriors like you to kill humanity's number one enemy, the Grimm"
"Where are you getting at ?" says Shane.
"You are being enrolled into Beacon Academy Shane! The first ever of our kind"
Shane bites down. Spartans were never allowed into Beacon, ever. The harsh training and cruel tactics they grew up on made the almost despised as being barbaric to the other kingdoms. Sparta would be a Kingdom due to their strong military but because of their small landmass they are nothing more than a very big " Village ".
You see Spartans are given a very deadly training that none as ever dared tried until they become a season hutsman. Spartans are trained to keep fighting even after their aura has been depleted. It's why they wear so much armor as well. On another note Spartans take pride in their own training which is far more superior than any huntsman academy out their. Allegedly. Which is why it is a embarrassment to go to any other place to seek training. Any Spartan who does go to an Academy to seek training is most likely a deserter. Being kicked out of the kingdom and unable to receive training from other veteran hoplites.
"Rick" Shane growls out "what is this nonsense, I do not need to go there and will not go there. I don't need their training nor do I want it".
"Oh but you will Shane, in fact your leaving this afternoon to head for the bullhead that will bring you to said Academy. This is non negotiable Shane"
Shane clinches his fist. This is an insult to him as a spartan holpite youngest of his age. He is already one of the most superior fighters in the Spartan Army. But to disobey Ricks orders would mean maximum punishment. Being exiled would be a grace as to being excuted.
"As you wish" Shane growls out
He turns around not wanting risk the chance of him killing Rick where he sits. When Shane finally finds his Uncle Leon his mind starts to fload of things to say. Leon stops him before he even gets a word in
"I already know of Ricks plans. Trust me I tried to reason him out of be but for some god forsaken reason he is deadest on having you go to Beacon. I already packed your things. I'm sorry but our goodbye must be short."
Shane just looks at Leon. He feels betrayed yet he can't hate Leon. He did try but he failed. All Shane can manage to say to Leon before he grabs his bag to leave for the bull head that will take him to Vale is
"I'll miss you"
So yea authors notes... let me just say this I typed all of this on a phone okay and it was hard. Also this is my very first story ever. But this was eating at me and I had to do somthing.
