Seth exited the bus, laptop under his right arm and side satchel to his left hip. He sized up the school gazing at it up and down. That was until he received a shove from behind to hear Hayden's voice grunt
"Jeez your about as fast as a snail, and fun fact they're slow."
"Hmph." Seth said both annoyed and angered by the comment. He ran forward and adjusted his glasses. He brushed his blonde bangs from his brown eyes and began sprinting forward to get his ID card. He wanted to be the first of his friends to hold one in his hands. He rounded a corner and ran smack into some one and landed on his butt. He felt a pair of hands helping him up.
"Now apologize." Said a stern voice Seth recognized as Hannah's.
"I-I'm sor-" He gasped realizing he had just run into The Law. "I am so so sorry Law sir I-I was in a rush you s-"
"Hey it's okay you little nooblet just cool down. It's you're first day isn't it?" He said asking both Hannah and Seth. They both responded with a nod. The Law snickered and walked off.
"Calm down…" Hannah sighed and grabbed Seth's arm dragging him behind "From now on we are walking like civil humans." Seth caught up with Hannah readjusting himself from the previous event.
"You can let go now." He said brushing her off, and running forward up the multiple flights of stairs until reaching Calhoun's office. He bent over exhausted, and was about to knock on the door when the door came opened hitting his hand and sending a strong gust of wind in his face.
"Let me guess you're one of the 7 new maggots here to be destroyed and chewed apart?" Asked a tall bearded man.
"Yes sir!" Seth said snapping up and saluting
"Pathetic...Name?" He asked rubbing his eyebrows
"SG43, or Seth Goodson whichever you prefer sir!' He said not breaking his salute.
"You won't last a week." Scowled Calhoun throwing a card towards Seth. He took one last glance and shut his door. Seth immediately scrambled to pick up his card and locate his room number. Room 12 in the Flame Hall, all the way on the first floor… He ran back down the multitude of steps sprinting past his friends, and he finally stood still when his feet hit concrete. Then he continued at a steady speed walk to the far end of the VGHS courtyard.
Seth entered the school and continued across the hallway to a door that had the words "Flame Hall" in red written across it. He opened the door and took off down the hall to room 12. He opened the door to find a recently vacated room. He let out a sigh of relief knowing it was all his. His room consisted of a desk with a computer and gear by the door, bunk beds on the left wall and a closet in the right filled with VGHS clothes. A window and an empty desk were in the back of the room, the window looked out onto the courtyard and a small garden.
"I guess that's kind of pretty." Said Seth as he placed his satchel on the bottom bunk and his laptop on the back desk, and powered on the new desktop that he found in his room.
"Fire!" yelled the robed figure with the name SG43 hovering above it. The small stump like creature died the instant it was engulfed in flames leaving no drops. SG43 ran forward and put away his Staff of Sleep. Though not the most powerful weapon it was Seth's favorite, and with reduced manicka for casting all spells he couldn't complain. He ran through a portal to find his objective, the Elder Tree Giant a towering giant made of wood and green energy flowing through its creases.
SG43: I found it…
BLaCkThecaT: Lemme teleport to you quickly :P
Raptroqueen: Jaja wait up! .w.
A pitch black Felica, a cat like creature that walks and talks like a human but is covered in fur and has a cat tail and ears, appeared next to him cloaked in skin tight navy blue armor and crouched down pulling out two black daggers with jagged edges. Above her hovered the name BLaCkThecaT. Next came another human dressed in orange scaled armor. She drew a katana from its sheathe and readied herself for battle, above her floated Raptroqueen.
SG43: 3….
SG43: 2…
SG43: 1…
SG43: ATTACK!
The sorcerer immediately had a ball of fire coursing around his staff witch he launched at the giant to get its attention. It did a moderate amount of damage, but there was still a long way to go. The Felica darted up a tree and jumped on the beast burying one dagger in its shoulder and it began running towards its head until she was greeted by its other hand and she was taken by the giants fist then thrown to the ground with a great deal of force. She didn't die, but was close to it, so she decided to head to the back lines and heal while firing arrows. Raptroqueen summoned an orange raptor and then began simultaneously attacking the legs with multiple slashes and ravages. The sorcerer began casting more power spells aimed at its shoulders when an idea struck him.
SG43: Raps launch poison I'd like to try somethin
Raptroqueen: Good god hurry please…
"Ice Ray!" Shouted the small hooded figure and a beam of ice erupted from the smoky gray orb at the end of his staff. He aimed the ray at the legs to try and prevent it from advancing, and it somewhat worked. He managed to create a layer of crystal clear ice over the left leg, and he continued to the right before running low on manicka.
SG43: Black it's my turn to rest you go back in and fight it.
Black did as she was told and returned to fighting the monstrous giant, along with Raptroqueen and her dinosaur friend. SG43 downed a few manicka potions, and few health potions before returning to the fight and launching orbs of fire at the beast's chest and face, Raptroqueen was using poison based moves on the arm, and BLacKThecaT was slashing at its neck. All was going well until a deafening shatter ripped through the air, and a large tree like leg sent SG43 flying back into another tree barely hanging on to life. The menu was open in a blink of an eye and 16 health potions disappeared from the inventory and into SG43's health bar, along with 20 manicka potions. The sorcerer staggered up and raised his staff towards the sky.
"Comet Storm!" He yelled and the sky turned a red tint as if it were on fire, and molten rocks began falling from the sky and charring the giant. Black and Raptro jumped off and came down by the sorcerer to watch the spell unfold. Flaming boulders pounded the giant on by one, and it soon came down on its knees then fell flat on its face. The large body faded and items exploded everywhere. SG43 scrambled to find the weapon he wanted, then he saw it. The Scepter of Eternal Rest, it was three stages up from the Staff of Sleep. The weapon itself looked like a thorny branch and at the top a similar smoky gray orb surrounded by two wings of thorns. He picked it up and equipped it gleefully. This is going to be a good year he thought…a good year.
