Finale

Sora sat on the seat of the airship which felt rather uncomfortable for a while now. He had been on this ship for at least a mere hour and he can feel his ass about to break from stiffness. "Would it hurt for them to put some damn cushions in these seats." he muttered as he shifted himself a little as he stared at the cloud covered window. He realized...this was it, he was really heading for the NOL Academy...the most prestigious place to go and study. He was really going to fufill the wish that he and his Nee-san shared together.

As he looked outside the window, he looked around the empty seats in his side. He then looked at the group of humans next to his seat as they stared at him with disgust. "Look...it's the Albino." He heard one of them mutter as they began to talk about him. Ignoring them, he looked back at the window as he slowly closed his eyes to remember how fortunate he was to even be here. 'To think it will all start with me getting in trouble...' Sora thought as he began to think to that fateful day.


25 December 2195


Sora ran through the streets of Otsu doing his daily routine, running around without a sense of where he was truly going to head for as the dog vendor from before notice him. "OI SORA!" he shouted as Sora stopped running and saw the vendor. "INU-SAN! How have you been doing?" He said in reply as he ran back to the vendor where he smiled at him. "I've been doing fine. Business has been pretty good ever since you got those guys off me."

"It's nothing Inu-san. Just doing my best to protect the beastkin of Otsu and little kids as well." Sora spoke as some humans noticed him as looked at him with disgust. "Well well well, if it isn't the Albino." One of them said as Sora's face immediately soured at the nickname. Albino...a name used to reference his white features, more specifically his hair even though they have blond tips on them. "What do you want? Wasn't the asskicking I gave you before not enough." Sora quietly taunted as the cheerful aura he usually had suddenly disappeared replaced with a hateful one. "You got lucky kid and you know it! So we're going to put you at your place!" another of the guys said as they pulled out various weapons they kept inside thier bags.

Sora observed them as they wielded their weapons rather clumsily. They held mostly blunt weapons with the most dangerous one holding a small pocket knife. Sora actually sighed at the rather pitiful display of weapons as they charged for him. One of them raised a baseball bat they held at their hand and swung hard for him. For some strange reason it looked so slow in Sora's eyes as he side stepped rather fast before slamming his palm right for the poor guys ribs. Making him fly to a pile of garbage as he got into stance once more.

Then two of the other guys charged for him, raising their crowbars and trying to slam them at his head. Ducking low so that they caught nothing but air, Sora threw a punch, twisting it at the last minute to make the guy spin violently to his friend caught in the pile of garbage. Grabbing the crowbar mid air, he used it to pull his friend closer as he roundhouse kicked him to the trash. As soon as he recovered, the man with the small pocket knife tried to stab him from behind but Sora was quick to that and simply side stepped while tripping the guy straight to the wall as he slid down in a comedic fashion to his friends.

"Geez...when will they just leave me alone." He muttered at his breath as for some strange reason, he had developed a hatred for humans that he couldn't explain well. Ruffling his white hair, he looked back at the vendor as his cheerful self returned, "Well those guys are taken care of! What were you going to say next?" He said as he smiled right at the vendor. "Ahaha...I should be asking you how did you learn how to fight?" The vendor asked as Sora began to think.

Sora himself wondered how he was able to fight so well. Ever since some people tried to attack him in an alleyway at Otsu, he discovered his fighting talents and even learnt proper martial arts despite never reading a single book about it. "I guess...it's just natural for me." Sora replied as his answer as he honestly didn't know himself. Sora then decided to get going and started jogging on the spot. "Well I'll be going now! See you later Inu-san!" He said as he sprinted before the vendor could respond.


Sora continued his jog around the town as everyone was anxious to celebrate Christmas this year. Even the NOL felt the Christmas cheer as various banners scattered around the town with a commemoration for the tragic events in the 5th city of Ibukido. The various Announcement boxes scattered around Otsu played Christmas jingles as Sora found himself running for the town square. He would have celebrated Christmas with his Oka-san, Otou-san and Pikaka but they were too busy this year.

Derrick had recently managed to score a permanent job place with Pikaka as head chef of the Moonlit Cat of Midnight or it's more famous name nowadays MCM. Pikaka herself managed to move her bar from the outskirts to somewhere more in the middle of Otsu and business was booming like mad since then. Neko herself was doing double duty as she was working at the bar part time but her main job is with the NOL Royal Messengers who deliver important messages amongst the families. Sora himself was doing nothing with his life and he was three days close to turning 16.

'Am I really going to waste the rest of my life doing nothing?' Sora thought as he felt a sharp pain at his heart. Realizing it was time, Sora pulled out a bottle and opened it, pouring out a single red capsule. " Last one...I need to remember to get some more." Sora muttered as he placed it into his mouth and drank his flask of Sake. After doing so, he looked at the centre as he noticed a massive gathering happening. Walking to the scene, he witnessed what was happening.

"TO COMMEMORATE THE OFFICIAL ONE YEAR SINCE WE LOST IBUKIDO WE HAVE CONSTRUCTED A TOWER IN IT'S MEMORY!" The announcer shouted as the screen showed a tower that was right in the middle of where the main NOL branch of Ibukido laid. Everyone in the crowd had mixed reactions to this but they still cheered anyways. Sora ignored it altogether as he continued to his own business. Then suddenly in his vision he saw a beastkin child falling to the ground as he went over to help him.


a few minutes before...


The beastkin child was just minding his own business as he looked at the scene with utter glee. He cheered loudly as the event unfolded in his eyes. As he did so, he didn't notice the group of humans that was walking behind him as he accidentally bumped into them. "HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING BEASTKIN BRAT!" One of them cruelly said as he shoved the kid out of the way. As he rose up, he looked at the humans with some terror in his eyes. "Who do you people think you are!?" He courageously said with his terrified voice as the humans actually laughed.

"Well we are obviously walking for a special event that only we humans are selected to attend!" One of them cockily said as he looked at the kid menacingly. "We are the best of the best in Otsu! And we are selected to see who will get the chance to work in the NOL!" another human said as he flexed his muscle to prove his point. Rumors were that an NOL scout was in the area and he was recruiting people for the NOL due to the massive loss of manpower the year before.

"Well the NOL won't pick cruel people like you!" the kid said as the humans looked at him rather disgusted. "And what makes you think the NOL will pick trash like you beastkin!" The first human shouted as he shoved him harder than before. As the boy slid on the ground, the human simply raised his foot as if he was going to stomp on the kid's face. "KNOW YOUR PLACE BEASTKIN!" he shouted as the foot came down on the boy.

Then, in what felt like minutes, a person's footsteps could be heard as suddenly the man's face was kicked rather hard by another kid who had white hair with blond tips. "Abare u~indoshia!" The boy shouted as the kick broke the wind around them, sending the man crashing to the floor headfirst with his own foot on his face. The other humans were shocked until they realized who it was. "So it's you again Albino! We sure missed you!" They said as the beastkin boy looked at his savior and realized who it was.

"Sora!?" the boy shouted as Sora looked at the kid. Walking up to him with a smile, he patted him in the head as his beastkin feature which was a cat's tail wagged while his cat ears twitched. "Hey there Kato! Are these humans harassing you?" he asked with a smile as Kato could do nothing but nod his head. Looking back at the group of humans, Sora pounded his fist as he eyed each and everyone of them. "I would suggest to you all to start running right now. I won't hold back to those who choose to stay..." He threatened in a scary voice as the humans laughed it off.

"PLEASE! You're just one person! What can you do to 100 of us!?" The man shouted as every single one of the muscle meatheads agreed with what he said as they got ready to fight. "You will be our warmup Albino! Once we are done with you, we can show off our big guns!" All 100 of them shouted as Sora simply shook his head in disgust. "I've told you guys already...the Name's Sora! NOT ALBINO!" He shouted as he charged for the 100 men without a single glimpse of hesitation in his eyes.


The crowds at Otsu were enjoying the festivities immensely. From the various displays done with ars magus like Fire, Ice and so on. Everyone was enjoying what they were seeing. Meanwhile, the NOL scout was observing the events with interest. Though he was supposed to watch the contestants for the NOL selection army, he couldn't help but be amazed by the way people used ars magus nowadays, 'It seems that the talent for Ars Magus users seem to be increasing more and more as the years pass by.' the scout noted to himself as he head the next event being announced.

"NEXT UP! WE WILL HAVE THE COMPETITION OF A LIFETIME FOLKS! OTSU'S FINEST WILL BE TAKING THE CENTRE STAGE FOR THE BRAWL OF THE LIFETIME!" The moment the announcer shouted that, everyone in the arena went estatic. The scout himself was eager for this event to happen so he can observe the talent for himself. "LETS US INTRODUCE ALL THE CONTESTANTS TO THE STAGE!" everyone waited patiently the moment he shouted even the scout. Then...an awkward silence lingered on the area.

"uuuhhhhh...ONCE AGAIN! LETS US INTRODUCE ALL THE CONTESTANTS TO THE STAGE!" The announcer shouted again as the silence lingered once more. Everyone began to wonder what was going on, even the announcer as the NOL scout himself decided to do some investigation work and go and look at the contestants himself. As he headed for the backstage, he saw one of the contestants lying on the ground unconscious. Rushing to the scene and hiding behind the wall, he took a peek and was amazed at what he was seeing.

"This...This is just crazy!? We're outnumbering you!" He heard the contestant shout as he saw what appeared to be a young boy...a young boy of all people, and he was taking on all the 100 contestants for the festival with half of them on the ground. "What's the matter? I thought you wanted to teach this Albino a lesson?" The boy taunted agitating the other contestants. "THAT'S IT! YOU ASKED FOR THIS!" a contestant shouted as he made an ars magus circle appear at the palm of his hand.

The scout was impressed with the man's control but was brought down to earth hard when the boy actually reacted faster than the ars could come out. 'THIS BOY'S SPEED! It's...it's unimaginable!' The scout thought with shock as the other contestants wondered what the hell just happened. "If you're going to use ars magus...try being a bit faster." the boy taunted as in an instant, he was moving like a blur. Even with a clarity ars magus, the boy was moving like lightning. 'Is he using a speed ars magus!? And if so...he has excellent control over it!' the NOL scout wondered as he watched.


Sora felt the whole world slowing down, well...that is what one would say if they were faster than light. But he felt different about that theory, he was moving even faster than the world. He wondered how he got this speed... but it must be linked to his past was the only thing he could come to a conclusion. 'I need to master...I need to master this speed!' Sora thought to himself as he began to himself to his limits.

Seeing from the corner of his eye a guy trying to use what appeared to be an earth ars, Sora quickly went for the guy. Grabbing his arms, he noticed another guy as he was making a red seal. "Let me consume your flesh!" The fiery voice behind the red seal spoke as Sora knew what it was. He then tossed the guy to the red seal user as they both went down like rocks. 'Not this time...fire.' Sora had a fear with fire...Pyrophobia if you would like to call it. He wasn't scared of the fire when he cooked or did other stuff with...it things he can control. It's the fire he can't control that scared him.

"I'm ending this right now!" Sora shouted as he started going to town with all the contestants in the area. Their numbers dwindled rapidly as it was soon left to him and the strongest contestant of the group. "I guess it's up to me to clean up this mess." he spoke as he cracked his knuckles and flexed his muscles. Not even giving him one moment to react, Sora pounded on his body with fists and palm strikes so fast that nobody could believe that this was real. It was then he gave the man an uppercut launching him high into the air as he dashed upwards instead of jumping. He then raised his right leg high into the air as if the man's head was like a soccer ball.

"Wairudo!" the moment he shouted that, he sent the kick for the man's face as it caused him to straighten his body to be facing flat on the ground. His face facing the sky as Sora arched his back to make himself spin in the air. Readying his fists, he aimed for the man's face before shouting out, "harikēn!" sending a fast haymaker style corkscrew punch for the man's face with his left fist, breaking the air and wind around them as the final contestant was sent spiraling down to the ground. Crashing to the ground as one gigantic and rather violent looking mess.

As Sora landed on the ground, he heard clapping from behind him. Turning around, he saw that it was an NOL official who wore his blue uniform with a pride only an NOL official could have. It honestly sickened him a little as he looked at the man. "And I'd take you are going to arrest me for what I done?" Sora asked as the man to his shock said, "Why should I arrest a talented individual like yourself?! I should be praising you!"

He couldn't believe what he had just heard, a person was praising him for utterly destroying 100 contestants for a contest that was harrassing Kato who he told to run off. "I don't know whether to feel honored or weird out" He replied as the man took his hand and shook it vigorously. "You should be honored! that was some of the best fighting I have ever seen! how old are you!" The man questioned as the barrage of questions to Sora began.


Sora: I'm just fifteen...thought I'm turning sixteen in three days

NOL Scout: Amazing! What about that fighting style!?

Sora: Uhhh...*thinking*...I just fight with the flow.

NOL Scout: Fight with the flow?

Sora: I remembered a person telling me that your body is a weapon...and that any other weapon you get should be an extension of what your body is capable of

NOL Scout: Amazing! How about that high speed movement!? Were you using ars magus!?

Sora: Ummm...I can't use ars magus...tried learning it but it never came to me naturally.

NOL Scout: Yet you defeated all of these individuals single handed! With a restriction like that!?


The questions that were coming to Sora made him feel uncomfortable and the scout noticed. Clearing his breath and regaining his professional composure, he looked at Sora with serious eyes. "But I am serious young man...you should join the NOL." The moment he said that, Sora felt a strange wave of distrust and discomfort come to him. His face looked a bit troubled as the man knew he had to do something fast. "Ah! I've decided! I'm placing you under a scholarship with the NOL Academy in Torifune!"

Sora was baffled like a madman. "What on earth is a scholarship?" He asked as the scout comedically collapsed to the ground. "It is the one thing that allows city folk who aren't the noble families to get in the Academy." He explained after getting up and recomposing himself. Sora didn't know how to take what he heard...until he heard the next few sentences from his mouth. "In the Academy, people go there to study and eventually join the NOL once their years are completed."

Sora's eyes shot up in shock, "You're saying...I can get education there!" Sora said in shock as the man nodded. Sora looked at the ground for a while, 'A place where one can get education...a place where one can learn...the one thing Nee-san wanted...' Sora thought as he remembered that december day that he and Alice promised to find a way to study and get the mythical "Education" that had eluded their grasps. Gripping his hand, he looked at the trainer with serious eyes as he gave his answer.


"Alright...give me the scholarship. I'm going to the Academy!"


As the memory of that day remained fresh on his mind, Sora slowly opened his eyes the moment he heard the PA box say, "Now approaching destination...welcome to the 15th Hierarchical City, Torifune." In his view...a majestic view of the Academy City was shown to him as he couldn't help but gawk at it's beauty. As soon as the ship touched down, he stretched as he walked slowly due to his probably two hour sleep.

"31 January 2196...Orientation will begin in a few days..." Sora said to himself as he looked at a clock which had a visual calender on it. Looking around, he noticed that there were various people wearing the common blue military uniform that flooded every Hierarchical city and a few people who he presumed were students wearing a blue military school uniform jacket with gold trim and a while stripe right at the middle and a red tie with it. The girls wore a black skirt and white thigh high socks with sneakers while the boys wore a black slack with loafers.

Carrying his bag of various things that are precious to him, he walked out of the port as he stared at the map he was given. Staring at it for a while, a sudden wind suddenly blew it off his hand. "! Hey come back here!" Sora shouted as if the paper was real and chased after it in a comedic fashion. Managing to grab the paper, he heard some people conversing right in front as he looked up.

From his vision, he saw a red haired boy who had a confident smile on his face as his brown eyes looked like they were sparking at that moment. He was talking to a girl whose black skirt went all the way down as her aura was that of elegance like her red hair tied with two orbs on the front. The girl beside her had green eyes as her posture looked a bit weak and intimidated but she managed to hold on her own with her blond hair. The final person however...made him stare at her for what felt like an eternity.

He saw that she was a squirrel beastkin with the iconic tail that represented them. She held a smile that was as bright as the sun itself as her figure was well developed for a girl her age. She didn't have long hair like the red hair and blonde one...but her short brown hair with white stripes and tips was just something to look at which matched her hazel eyes. He didn't know why he was staring at her and knew he had to stop...but he just couldn't stop.


At the same time...


"You asked for my help again why?" The red haired man asked with a look of skeptisim on his face. " You know that we girls are going to shop for supplies that we need and someone needs to be able to carry them." The red haired girl answered with elegance as the blond haired girl looked at him with some nervousness, "You don't mind...right Hunter?" She asked innocently as the man known as Hunter kept his calm and smiled. "Of course I don't...Mistress" he replied as the blonde girl flustered.

"Geez Noel! What would I kill to have a loyal servant like him." the squirrel beastkin said with excitement in her voice as Noel blushed even more, "Oh! don't tease me like that! Tsubaki please help me!" she whined as the red haired girl known as Tsubaki simply sighed. "There is nothing I can do about a situation like this Noel." As soon as she said that, Hunter gave a hearty laugh. "Don't worry Noel. I promise I won't call you Mistress that much."

As Noel actually whimpered cutely at the suggestion, the squirrel girl looked at the sky for a short bit as the wind picked up. 'Brr...sure is cold...' she thought as thought about what has happened to her for the past month alone. She was making friends, school was becoming more tolerable for her and hell she even began to open herself up more. But somehow she felt like something was missing from her life...something important as she brushed her hair which for some reason, had stripes of white breaking her usual brown hair. Something she never had when growing up in the harsh streets of the 11th Hierarchical City of Shinatsu until one fine day when she looked at the mirror and suddenly saw them.

"Hey...Earth to Makoto?" Hunter said as it snapped her train of thought for a short while before she scratched her head. "Oh sorry...I was just thinking about something that's all." Makoto replied as Hunter sighed a little before continuing his conversation with Tsubaki and Noel. Looking forward, she noticed a figure from the distance as they approached closer. She focused her eyes and for some reason unknown to her...she was taken aback at what she saw.

She saw a boy around her dear friend Noel's age as he was for some reason looking at her with the same interest. He wore mostly black clothes from the black jacket and black hoodie to the black cargo pants and boots but he also had shades of white and silver on his clothes like the hoodie having a silver trim on the hood itself and 2 different silver belts. But what stood the most was his White hair that had blond tips at the end.


For a second, the whole world felt like it paused for them...as the winds blew their hardest that day...their fates...have now become one...
