Thanks for the reviews. Keep it up. Check out my profile for the link to my DA account for pictures of the characters. So far I have the trainers. Breeders and coordinators will be up when I introduce them.
Last time on Academia... The battle between Ayla and Ryleigh ended with Ryleigh winning. We met Gen, who Ante seems to want to beat into the ground.
"Wake-up!"
The voice invaded my dreams. I opened my eyes to be greeted by the sight of Ryleigh's face close to mine.
"Ahhh!"
I shot up, almost colliding with her.
"Time for breakfast!" she said.
Ryleigh was already in her uniform. The white button t-shirt was tucked in slightly into her red skirt. She socks were scrunched down and she held her black shoes in her hand. In her opposite hand was her bag.
"I want to eat. Come on!" she shouted.
I wish I could be that cheerful and energetic in the morning.
"I wish I could be as energetic as you," I mumbled, climbing out of my bed.
"Huh? Are you not happy about class? I am! I get to be in the same class as you!" she cheered.
I quickly got on my uniform, dressing a little more neater than Ryleigh. Like tucking my shirt all the way in and pulling my socks all the way up.
"I'm just not a morning person," I said. But I stopped and looked at her with a confused look.
"Well, come on. No more taking unless your walking. I'm hungry!" she complained.
She pulled me out of our room and down the hallway. Other students surrounded us. Some Betas. Some Omegas. A few Alphas. You could tell by their badages. On each students shirt is a crest. On it reads Parva Monstrum Academia. Underneath that is a symbol repreating each level. Alphas had a α. Beta a β. A Delta gets Δ. And an Omega has Ω.
"Hurry!"
Ryleigh continued to pull me. Telling me to hurry. I was going as fast as her.
We had finally reached the cafeteria. Looked like we were a bit late. The cafeteria was filled to the brim.
"I want food," demanded Ryleigh.
She continued to drag me along as she pushed through the crowd. God, this girl was determined. I'll give her that.
We finally reached the front of the line. I grabbed my food and waited for Ryleigh.
"What should I get?" she thought out loud.
I'm not doing this again.
"This!" I almost shouted, shoving a plate filled with pancakes into her hands.
She stared at it for a second and then said, with a smile, "Okay."
We found a seat and continued to eat. Of course, Ryleigh finished before me. Though she waited for me to finish pateintly.
"Ayla. Ryleigh. Hey."
I looked up and saw Ante.
"Still eating I see," he chuckled.
He grabbed an open chair and pulled it to our table.
"Already eat?" I asked.
He shook his head, "Nope. I'm here to steal something from you."
With that he took one of my pancakes and shoved it into his mouth.
"Hey!" I shouted.
Ryleigh chuckled.
"You guys are such a cute couple," she said.
I blushed.
"I told you, we aren't dating!"
Ante laughed, even though his mouth was full of pancakes.
Suddenly someone behind us coughed.
"Oh, yeah," Ante said, his mouth finally empty. "This is Avel. He's my roommate."
I looked up. This guy, average height, stood there. He looked a bit meakly. What with his pale skin and contrasting hair. He was one to sort of blend into the back drop.
"Hi," he greeted.
Ante pointed at Ryleigh.
"This is Ryleigh."
And then me.
"This is Ayla."
Avel waved with a slight smile.
"Don't be afraid of them, they are just mere Deltas," Ante chuckled.
I gave him a playful punch on the shoulder. I saw the Beta symbol on his crest and frowned. Why was I put in Delta?
I looked more at Ante's uniform. His was almost as messy as Ryleigh's. Actually his was more so. His button shirt was completely untucked into his black slacks. His red tie was undone. Now Avel's uniform was neatly done and made him look a lot more professional standing beside Ante.
"We should get to class," said Ante.
I looked at the clock mounted on the wall. 8 o'clock. 20 more minutes and class would start. Seeing how it was the first day, might aswell get there early enough to find a seat.
"Yeah," I said. "Where's your class?"
Ante shot straight up out of his chair and threw his arm over Avel's shoulders.
"We're in room 56!" he answered.
"So you're a Beta also?" asked Ryleigh.
Keeping his straight face, Avel just nodding.
"And you?"
"Room 39," answered Ryleigh.
"Well, better get going. Room 39 in on the oppisite end of the campus from here," said Ante.
With that, Ante and Avel left.
Ryleigh and I walked quickly to class. So for Ryleigh, we walked normal speed. We got there with a couple minutes to spare.
We got our seats near the back of the class. There was a good number of students in the class. I felt small compared to that size.
"Good morning class," said the teacher walking in. "I'm Mr. Malachi. I will be teaching your regular classes. English, math, science, and such."
The class continued pretty blandly. After regular class was lunch. And after that was battle training. We got to stick with our class all day, so I was at least with Ryleigh. Though I don't know if that was a good thing. She can get pretty overbearing sometimes.
"Lunch time!" cheered Ryleigh. "God, I didn't know class could get so slow."
We took our lunches out on to the lawns outside the cafeteria. They had scattered willows on them perfect for shade. We found one without anyone underneath and took our seats.
"Look who it is, the Delta," said a voice.
It was Gen. That snob.
"What do you want?" I asked snidely.
Truthfully, I was not in the mood for him... ever.
"I'm just looking for a place to eat my lunch," he said, not at all taken back by my rudeness.
"Do you want to eat with us?" asked Ryleigh.
"No!"
I almost shouted. Ryleigh didn't know how rude Gen was. He even insulted her.
"Sure."
I should have seen that coming. This guy just loves to push my buttons.
"So losing anymore battles?" he asked.
I clenched my fists.
"Shut up," I mumbled.
He chuckled.
"You won't get any better if all you do is lose," he commented.
"She won the entry battles," pointed out Ryleigh.
"Yeah, but she was ranked Delta," he continued.
"If all you're going to do is insult Ayla, than leave."
Ante appeared beside us, followed by Avel.
"Oh, it's your stalker," sighed Gen.
Ante was about to punch this guy.
"How rude, Gen."
What is with people flocking to our tree. No one was here to start with. First Gen. Then Ante and Avel. Now another person.
Except this guy was cute.
"Whatever," sigh Gen.
Gen stood up, with his food, and left.
"Sorry about him," the guy apologized. "He thinks because he is a first year and an Alpha, he is the best.
Dude needs to realize that he can't get away with insulting people if he wants to be liked."
"I don't think he wants to be liked," grumbled Ante.
"I forgot to introduce myself," he said. "I'm Erik."
"Ryleigh."
She jumped up. She was as peppy as usually. Hard to read her.
"Avel."
Not much of a talker, is he?
"Ayla."
I felt like I was blushing.
"Ante."
He didn't sound so happy.
"Well, don't mind Gen. He wants to have friends, just doesn't know how to talk to people," said Erik.
"Again, I doubt that," mumbled Ante.
He was clearly upset.
"I got to go meet up with my girlfriend," he said suddenly. "Got to go, bye."
He waved bye, and I waved back.
"He has a girlfriend, so you can stop flirting," whispered Ante.
"Shut up!" I shouted.
I grabbed Ryleigh and pulled her back towards class.
"We have class," I said. "Come on Ryleigh."
God, that guy bugs me almost as much as Gen sometimes.
Next time on Academia... Battle training with Bini for Ayla and Ryleigh.
Okay, first... To -LHBC, your character is mainly going to be mainly a trainer because a student can only be training in one area. Also, to Storm229, how do you like Erik?
