IS 37.2

Within a mansion in Greece , there was a 5'6" teenage boy with long silver hair and light blue eyes who was studying at his desk.

He heard several taps from his window and as he turned around to see Wyatt sitting on a tree branch.

Begrudgingly the boy opened the window and asked "Exactly how did you make it past security?"

Wyatt answers "It's pretty easy all I did was go through the back and just climb up this tree. Tomato ?"He tossed the tomato to silver haired boy.

The boy says "This was grown in mother's garden, she doesn't like it when pest go around through there."

Wyatt says "Well I was kinda of hungry and those tomatoes looked and tasted amazing. Does she have some secret way on growing them."

The boy angrily says "Look I told you yesterday and I'll tell you again. I don't want to join the IS academy."

Wyatt chuckles and says "Come on Harry-". The boy interrupts Wyatt and replies "My name isn't Harry, It's Harrison Solo."

After taking a bite of another tomato, Wyatt says "I know who you are Harry, first born son of the Solo family and heir to the legendary maritime trading empire."

Harrison says "Exactly, for centuries my family has used the Mediterranean Sea to acquire wealth and even to this day our status hasn't wavered."

Wyatt chuckles "I see so you probably want to follow your family's legacy."

Harrison answered "Exactly, that's why I can't waste time at a boarding school surrounded by hormone fueled female."

Wyatt finished the tomato and says "Oh I get it, your gay. Sorry to say but I'm straight, got a girlfriend and don't see you as my type."

Harrison shouts "I'm not gay you idiot, plus what type of girl would ever want to date you."

Wyatt smirks "Screw you my girl is so cute it will make your head spin, you book worm."

At that moment security started to surround the tree , Wyatt was sitting in as Harrison says "Looks like your surround."

Wyatt says "Am I really?" He deployed his unit and flew away from the mansion as he thought "I'll try again tomorrow."

Right as he returned to the Greek IS research faculty, an elder professor asked "Guess you struck out today?"

Wyatt says "Yeah, sorry about this Dr. Rowan but this kid doesn't listen."

Dr Rowan sighs "I'm honestly surprised, most kids his age would kill for this opportunity."

Wyatt says "I know, with Trent and Chris they had prior commitments that had them unable to participate. But Harry doesn't seem to care."

Later in the day as Harrison was still studying, his father entered the room and asked "So I heard that Danforth kid managed to sneak into the manor?"

Harrison says "He did father, honestly I'm surprised he made it passed security."

Mr Solo chuckles "Well when one has enough ambition, anything is possible."

Harrison says "Still I told him I didn't want to go, yet he's still trying. I'm not sure if he's persistent or an idiot."

Mr Solo says "Believe me son, the line between the two is very narrow. But trust me it's a very honorable quality to find."

Harrison says "Yet to sneak into our mansion, isn't that the quality of a thief?"

Mr. Solo sighs " You know back when I was your age, I would sneak to your mother's window after curfew."

The teen groans and says "Father, I don't want to here about what type of stuff you and mother did when you were younger."

Mr. Solo takes a seat and asked "Can I at least ask why you rejected their offer?"

Harrison says "It's because I'm taking my preparation of becoming your successor seriously. I can't just go off for three years to that school."

Mr. Solo chuckles as he says "I see, so you declined because you want to take over the company. Well let me give you some advice son, just because this was the path for me doesn't make it the one for you."

As he left the room , Harrison thought "What does father mean by that?"

The next morning as Harrison woke up , he heard several knocks coming from his window. Once again , Wyatt was there waiting for him.

Wyatt smirks and announced "Good morning young master Harry, you have a long day of studying, etiquette classes. Oh and don't forget your flute lessons."

Harrison yawned and replied "I don't play the flute, I play the piano."

Wyatt says "It was going to be one of the three rich people instruments."

Harrison says "Look I don't have time to entertain you. I actually have a decently busy schedule today."

Wyatt says "I got an idea, how's about I shadow you for the day. I mean I got nothing else to do and your too busy to blow off prior engagements. It's a win-win."

Harrison ask "You're just going to do what you want regardless of my choice aren't you?"

Wyatt says "Why it seems the young master is learning."

Harrison helps Wyatt inside the manor as the Greek teen says "Just don't distract me from my work."

For the rest of the morning Wyatt spent watch Harrison's daily schedule, from breakfast to his light studies and music lessons.

As they waited for lunch Harrison ask "So can you tell me why you're putting this much effort in recruiting me."

Wyatt immediately answers "It's because out of the three countries, Greece needs a male pilot the most. I mean haven't you heard the news."

Harrison says "Yes I know about how the previous cadet representative had defected to a terrorist organization. But didn't American's as well?"

Wyatt says "You have a point but unlike us, we have multiple representatives and with me , our program didn't suffer too much damage. But for Greece, funding has been cut to below half of what it once was."

Harrison says "But it doesn't seem like anything has changed recently about the facility."

Wyatt says "That's because it's still a recent development. It's only a matter of time before the effects show to the public. But if you attend the academy, you can help those people keep their jobs."

Harrison says "Look I feel bad for those people, but I'm still not going. I have to inherit my father's company."

Wyatt says "And another thing is that your so obsessed over that goal, you forgot to have fun."

Harrison says "I have fun, whenever I get to play the piano is when you have fun."

Wyatt says "Not really because when you play the piano it's 100 percent perfect."

Harrison asked "What's wrong with prefection, isn't that when one's skills are at the best?"

Wyatt smirks and responds "If you play a song completely perfect, you might as well have a computer play it as there's no emotion in it."

Harrison takes some time to think and says "And you think me going to the academy will help me out on this."

Wyatt says "Look right now all I see is someone who's just going through the motions rather than taking control of life itself. So you can stay here and waste your youth or take a chance?"

The American decided to leave the mansion as he thanks the staff for letting him stay for the morning.

For the next two days , Harrison waited for the next time Wyatt would show up but to his surprise he hasn't come by.

Mr Solo enters his son's room and asked "Miss your friend don't you?"

Harrison says "He's not my friend father , just someone who annoyed me for awhile."

Mr Solo says " I've been thinking more about the academy and I believe it's in your best interest to attend."

Shocked Harrison says "But Father, that would interfere with my lessons and grooming to become your successor."

Mr Solo says "Actually I think it would help you in the long run. I think that kid might teach you something you can't learn here."

Harrison asked "And what is it , I'm sure I can learn it without him."

Mr Solo chuckles "Trust me, you'll understand once you make it to the academy."

The next morning as Wyatt was doing some paperwork for the local research center , Professor Rowan comes shouting "We've done it , we actually did it."

Wyatt says "Calm down professor, what is that we did?"

Professor Rowan says "I got a call from Mr. Solo, Harrison is going to the academy after all."

A smirk formed on Wyatt's face as he says "That's pretty great, guess I got through to him after all."

The professor handed Wyatt an envelope and as he opened it he saw a one way plane ticket to Japan .

His smirk disappeared as he said "Oh yeah I guess it's time to go back to the academy."

Dr. Rowan ask "Is something wrong, you look upset?"

Wyatt says "Don't worry I'm fine. Just processing that the journey ends here."

Dr. Rowan says "Well the ticket is for later tonight. So how's about you have the rest of the day off and explore the city. We'll send a car for you when it's time to go to the airport."

Wyatt responds "Sure that sounds like a good idea. I haven't really done too much sight seeing."
