Disclaimer: I am merely writing this fanfiction for my own entertainment.

Author's Notes: I wrote this about… a year ago? o.o" Please go easy on me… XD And if possible, I would appreciate some reviews… =X

"Rachel... Hey, Rachel, are you there?"

I looked up in surprise, to see my childhood friend, Jessica, "yes, Jessica?" My name is Rachel, age 14 this year. I am a beginner class, but I am aiming to become a Priest! The reason why I want to become a Priest is that they save lives, unlike the other Jobs which only kill.

"Didn't you hear me? I said that the Class Ceremony is almost arriving!" Jessica pouted, polishing her Sword. Jessica came from a famous rich family whereas I came from a poor one. However, that did not stop us both from becoming friends because of one sole reason - Both of us wants to become a Priest.

"Eh? That fast?" I replied, tossing my sword as far as possible. I do not like the smell of the blood of the monsters, and never will.

"Yeah! But I heard that the Magicians will accept only one person this year because last year the Magicians had too many people." Being a Magician is a must before you can advance to a priest. However, you can also advance to other jobs like Ice & Lightning or Fire & Poison Wizard.

I turned to look at Jessica in the eyes. Pretty long hair, beautiful wide eyes, a kind heart and will always protect the people dear to her ... How about me? I'm just a plain commoner with messy wild hair and small circle eyes which hates killing, how can I even protect the people dear to me if I can't even kill?

"I'm sure you'll pass. But, be sure to wait for me, I'll definitely pass next year!" I grinned as I tackled Jessica with tickles.

Both of us then laughed and fooled around about that day.

When the Class Ceremony arrived, Jessica was indeed chosen to be a Magician whereas I'm still stuck in beginner class. Everyone around her cheered for her and even had a party to celebrate her becoming a Magician. Needless to say, I was really jealous.

"Congratulations, Jessica." I said, pretending to be happy.

"Thank you, Rachel." Jessica smiled.

Such a smile... so trusting...I just... can't bring myself to hate her... I thought as I broke down.

Jessica's party then ended with me crying, "I hate you..." to Jessica.

"Hey Jessica... I'm sorry for crying at your party..."

"It's no problem! But are you still sad, Rachel?" Jessica asked worriedly, making me feel guiltier that I was jealous of her and almost hated her before.

"Yea... Thanks..."

Jessica smiled but her next words came unexpected, "if you give up, it only meant one thing - Dying. If you want to protect your loved ones, you must prepare to sacrifice yourself. So with both choices, you would have to die, but which one is more worth it? Give up and do nothing or train yourself harder to protect your loved ones?" by this time, Jessica had her eyes closed, tears were flowing. Then, she turned to the door's direction. "I believe that you will make the right choice, and always will. But from now on, I, Jessica have no more ties to you anymore. Farewell, Rachel."

As Jessica walked away, only then I realised I was also crying. I had lost a precious friend.

After some time of solitude, I finally chose my choice.

"Wait for me, Jessica, I'm definitely going to catch up to you!"

A/N: Yeah, Jessica kind of realized that Rachel was jealous of her etc… XD And… I'm not going to continue this because I have no idea on how to continue it XD
