Chapter 1: Yuzuki's First Trial Let The Exams Begin!

Yuzuki came to a halt when he reached a yellow door with a square window, with a sign on it that read: DO NOT DISTURB. Yuzuki heald his head in despair and began to walk away, when he heard a voice.

"Hey Yuzuki I thought you were taking the exams today?"

He looked up to see a young light brown haired girl, with, light blue eyes, and the usual Shin O Academy uniform, but with a lime green undershirt and her hair pinned up, with a red feather on the right side.

"Yeah so did I Karine but that dumbass Kiza made me late."

"You know the exams haven't began yet don't you Yuzuki?"

"What do you mean there is a sign on the door that says do not disturb?"

"Yes but I was just on my way there to take my exams, you see they separate exam classes by alphabetical order my last name is Hino, and yours is Gomara so you will be with my class next."

*Facepalm* "I can't beleive that I didn't know they went by alphabetical order, I'm such a dumbass."

"We better hurry now Yuzuki or you will make us both late," "right".

The doors slammed open and about a hundred students came out some with a cheerful face, but most with despair in there eyes. The ones with despair in there eyes were all complaining about how hard the exams were. Yuzuki was already nervous, but after seeing the students faces and actions he was beyond that. After the flood of students were done pouring out Yuzuki and Karine's class entered with Yuzuki and Karine being the first ones to go in and sit down.

The teacher was a tall man with an almost bald head the only hair he had being on the sides of his head, he wore glasses and had a slightly muscular physique. His tone was loud and aggressive there was no sincerity in his voice so that added to Yuzuki's nervousness. Yuzuki looked over at Karine and saw that she had no nervousness in her eyes only pure determination, he gave a soft smile and then turned to face the front of the room.

"Is everyone ready now, if so then let's begin!"

The teacher then rang a bell and set a timer before placing it on his desk. Yuzuki began wrighting frantically his hand was in a complete frenzy, and not to mention the sweat that was coming from his head. After about an hour of testing the timer went off and the teacher's voice rang, "time's up pencils down!"

All the students hurilly placed there pencils neatly beside there papers. As the teacher came around to collect the papers Yuzuki's sweat didn't exactly slow down he was starting to shake at the thought of his test results he finished and thought he done a rather well job, but still the thought of failing the exams and staying at the Academy another year was unbearable. Not to mention the satisfaction that Kiza would get out of it.

After the papers were taken up the students were dismissed and ready to head to there barracks.

"How did it go for you Yuzuki?" Asked Karine in a tone that was more pleasant than usual.

"I'm not for sure probably not so well, I mean I think I done good but I'm not counting on it you know how my luck is."

"Yes I can't argue with you there, you do have some bad luck, but you need to focus less on your pessimistic side and more on your optimistic that's how I see it."

"Maybe you're right Karine, maybe I am to much of a Pessimist."

"Well anyways I'ma head to my barracks I'll see you tomorrow Karine."

"See you then Yuzuki good luck on tomorrows results."

They then headed toward there own barracks and prepared for a good nights rest.

It was about 1:00am when Yuzuki was woke from his sleep by an extremely loud noise. He got out of bed, grabbed his Academy sword , and walked out the door to investigate the sound. He stepped out the door and into a beautifull night the stars were all out, the moon was full, and the air was unbealeavably fresh. He heard a scream coming from the training grounds, Yuzuki knew then that he didn't have time to enjoy the fresh air.

He began running towards the source of the sound, when he arrived at the training grounds he saw Kiza standing there with a smug look on his face as usual, but when Yuzuki looked around he also saw Karine tied to a pole with rope and her mouth taped up.

"Kiza what do you think you're doing?"

"Well now such a large temper from such a small man."

"What is the meaning of this Kiza?"

"I think we have a score to settle from earlier and I knew if there was a little incentive behind it you would try to give me a real fight."

"Well then kiza you asked for it now here it is."

"Give me all you've got little man."

Yuzuki rushed Kiza with his sword in hand but Kiza used his flash step to dodge and get behind him.

Kiza then swung his blade right for Yuzuki's neck, but Yuzuki whipped around and blocked it.

They swung there blades at each other back and forth switching between offense and defense.

Then finally Kiza used another flash step to appear above Yuzuki.

"Time to end this!"

Shouted Yuzuki before using a flash step of his own to appear on the left side of Kiza.

"Hado number 31 Shakkaho"

Yuzuki then fired a large ball of fire red energy from his palm that hit Kiza directly.

Kiza started to get up when they heard a loud voice.

"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?"

They looked to see who was there, it was the teacher from the exams.

"Both of you back to your barracks, I'll decide what to do with you in the morning."

Yuzuki could see him begining to untie Karine as he was walking back toward the barracks, Karine flashed him a smile as if to say thank you.

The next morning the teacher came to Yuzuki's barracks and woke him in a loud tone as usual. "Yuzuki Gomara you are hereby cleared from the events that happened last night I spoke with Karine, and she explained the situation to me, Kiza Martigama is now being expelled from the Academy. Now get ready the results from the exams have been posted and if you don't get a good spot before the students crowd around them you might have to wait awhile." Yuzuki got up with a nervous smile on his face, and he was on his way.
