Note: The first few chapters will be rather short, however they should get progressively longer.
Chapter 1: The Search for Food
We open on our hero standing atop a hill, dressed in his usual garb, a black leather bomber, a green shirt, gray pants, and black combat boots. He appears to be lost in thought as his friend and teammate Reave Flannery walks up. Reave puts his hand on his friend's shoulder and asks, "What are you looking for, Nexus?"
"Hmm," Nexus looks back, "Food."
"Oh really?" Reave laughs as he looks at the academy around them. "I would've guessed it was girls." he jokes.
Nexus then turns around completely and puts his hands on Reave's shoulders, "The girls are implied." he states matter-of-factly. While looking past the head of his friend, Nexus catches a glimpse of the reddest hair he'd ever seen. "Holy shit," he exclaims in awe, "That's the girl from the cereal box!"
"Who?" Reave asks.
"Umm... Pyrrah Nikos, I think that's her name." Nexus responds, more than a little distracted.
"Oh, her," Reave says, "Didn't she win some sports competitions or something?" he asks, but Nexus had already left him alone on the hill.
Nexus is walking at a brisk pace to catch up to Pyrrah. He is already planning out his opening line, "So beautiful, wanna help me remember you for something other than a cereal box?" He's getting ready to round the corner and make his move when he is abruptly stopped by Reave grabbing him by the clooar of his jacket. "C'mon, let's go," Reave says as he drags Nexus along beside him, "Macey made dinner."
