Standard Disclaimers: I don't own Quistis but the rest of the characters are mine!
As Slythe Leonhart stepped out of bed he could feel a slight cramp to his stomach.
"Ughh," he moaned and turned to look at the clock.
It was 11:15, which left him fifteen minutes to get ready. He ran to the bathroom to find his roommate Pyo getting ready as well. Pyo turned to say something but Slythe was in such a rush he ignored Pyo and started to brush his teeth. After brushing he headed for the shower and after a quick scrub he changed into his training clothes, pick up his books, said bye to Pyo, and rushed out the door.
Slythe slid through the door and dropped into the seat of his first class. His Instructor Quistis Trepe was doing paperwork and did not notice Slythe come in late. Quistis was one of the few heroes in the Sorceress Wars.
"All right Students, lets begin class," said Instructor Trepe.
Slythe listened carefully and took notes. He was hoping to ace his written test, which was coming up next week so all he would have to take to become a SeeD would be the field exam. After class he rushed out of class to find Pyo so they could head to lunch. He found Pyo talking with a girl named Rikku. Slythe secretly liked Rikku but never could come out to admit it yet.
"Hey guys!" said Slythe, "What's up?"
Pyo turned to see Slythe behind him. "Nothing much I guess"
"Alright, I have to get to my next class, see you guys later," said Rikku and walked away.
Slythe and Pyo walked to the cafeteria talking about what had happened in their classes. When they entered the cafeteria they saw kids eating, chatting, and playing a popular card game called Triple Triad.
"You know,' said Slythe, " Rikku is one cute girl."
"Yah man, I didn't know you liked her," Pyo said.
"Lets just get some hot dogs."
Slythe and Pyo walked over to the long line of people waiting in line for some hot dogs. When they were finally served they were to discover that all the hot dogs were sold out. They ordered some grilled chicken instead and headed for a table where some of their friends were sitting.
"Gotcha there," said one of their friends named Grath. He had just beat their other friend Dozma in a game of Triple Triad.
"Hey, what's new guys!" said Dozma.
"Nothing much, I'm gonna study all weekend for the written exam," mumbled Slythe.
"Same with me," piped in Pyo.
After a short meal and a lively discussion Slythe head back to his dorm. Pyo had stopped at the library so Slythe was alone. He had two hours before his next class so he decided he would change into his battle clothes and head for the training center in preparation for the field exam. That was, if he passed the written test. Slythe slid into the dorm. He changed into his battle clothes, a bright red, silk shirt and a pair of black silk pants. He then strapped his gunblade to his waist and headed towards the Training Center.
When he reached the Training Center, he showed his student identification to the security guard and walked through the large steel doors. The Training Center looked like a jungle except for the steel doors leading to other chambers of the center. Slythe walked through one of the chamber doors to his left. As he walked in he heard a loud roar. He turned to see a T-Rex charge at him. Quickly he grabbed his gunblade from its holster and got into his battle stance.
Taking the advantage that he noticed his opponent approaching he dashed up to the monster and landed a swipe to its left leg. It gave a roar and swung its tail trying to trip Slythe. He jumped over it and landed another blow to the, monster, this time in its right foot.
"This should be easy," he thought overconfidently.
Just as he was about to land another blow to the dinosaur, the T-Rex shot out a blast of fire, causing him to flinch and fall. The T-Rex headed towards him. In his fright he pulled up his gunblade and hit the trigger. He missed pitifully and his arm collapsed from the intense strain. He thought he might have broken it but this was the last of his worries. He needed to escape. He turned to see a big shadow fall upon him. The dinosaur was going to crush him.
