Ryu was laying on the bed. He looked around and saw nothing but blue. He looked up and stared at the ceiling. His body was aching from the restless journey. He grew more tired and eventually he fell asleep and dreams of the past invaded.

Ryu is standing in front of a group of novices and 1st classes. AJ is seen beside him. Knights, Assassins, Monks, Wizards, and Priests stand behind Ryu and AJ.

Ryu, "Welcome to the Fighter of Justice guild. I'm Ryu, the leader. In this guild, we will train you to become powerful adventurers. We take on missions to secure the peace of Midgar. Rest assured, You'll only be assigned missions that are within your skills to accomplish. Each of you will be assigned a master. The master will help you train and develop your skills. He or she will also take care of you until you are powerful enough to survive on your own. My hawk is coming around with a hat. Reach in and pull a slip of paper. That will be your master. Anyone who is 2nd class fighter or professional enough will be in that hat. Any questions?"

A female swordsman raises her hand.

Ryu, "Whats your name?"

Female Swordsman, "Xinx, sir."

Ryu, "Don't call me sir. I'm not that way. I'm not above you in any way. What's your question?"

Xinx, "Ryu, We're assigned a Master. But how exactly do they teach us?"

Ryu, "Any way they see fit. As long as it helps you in the end."

Xinx, "Alright."

Ryu points toward the crowd and his hawk descends from the sky. It's claws carry a hat. It hovers around the group as everyone pulls a piece of paper. The hawk drops the hat into AJ's hands and rests itself on Ryu's shoulder. Ryu points to a nearby mansion.

Ryu, "The guild HQ is open to all of you. Inside you will find an armory, training grounds, warp center, and bedrooms. The bedrooms are assigned by your master. Seek out your master. If you have any problems, Ask any of us. We're all willing to help you."

The group scatters. Some going into the HQ, others going to greet the 2nd classes. AJ pats Ryu's back.

AJ, "Amazing how you can sound so professional even though you aren't like that."

Ryu, "Got to sound professional if you're a guild leader. Otherwise people have a harder time believing in you when they don't know you."

AJ nods and an acolyte is seen asking the others who AJ is.

AJ, "Sounds like someone is looking for his master. See ya later and good luck with your appentice."

AJ goes to greet the acolyte as Xinx approaches Ryu.

Ryu, "Hello Xinx."

Xinx, "I... Have you for a master."

Ryu, "Cool. Lets go inside and talk for a bit."

Ryu walks to the guild HQ as Xinx follows behind him. Ryu walks to the pub and takes a seat at the counter. Xinx sits beside him.

Ryu, "So. Tell me some stuff about ya."

Xinx, "Well. I love fighting. My brother started adventuring but was killed by doppelganger. I want to start adventuring but I'm not exactly sure what I should become from swordsman."

Ryu, "Why not?"

Xinx, "I just. Don't know which would best suit me."

Ryu. "I'll teach you the difference between the two. And give you my opinion after I see you fight. Until than tho, relax. I'd rather you know me first before you start leaving your life in my hands."

Xinx nods as Ryu orders a beer.

Xinx, "Aren't hunters supposed to not drink?"

Ryu, "Yah. We need to be perceptive as much as possible and beer only gets in the way of that. However, I drink little... My hawk takes the rest of it. You ever see a drunken hawk? It's awesome."
