KINGDOM SOULS
Episode 3
World of Launch City-Balamb School
"PSST... Hey, Van" whispered Zell, "Did you do the homework? Can I copy your answers?". "NO WAY Zell, that's cheating!". "Van, Mr. Dincht, I hope we don't have to send you to headmaster Cid's office again?. "No, Ms. Trepe" said to boys together. The children in the classroom burst into laughter. "BUSTED!" yelled out Rinoah after class. "Oh, Rinoah, leave them alone!" said Roze "Van, I hope you aren't too embarrassed about this, after all, it was Zell's fault for not doing his Geometry homework.". "First of all, it was for the paragraph that we had to do on mystic creatures. You know, moogles, chocobos, moombas, cactaurs…". "Oh, for Mr. Adams class.". "No, I have Sarret for that class.". "Actually Zell, I have Marcel for that class.". "OH, NO FRIGGIN WAY! I'M SCREWED NEXT PERIOD!". Rinoah barged in, "Hey Van, want to go to the cafeteria during break?". Roze remained looking away at Van when the question was asked, and he noticed. "Actually, I was going to the training center on the first floor to improve on my sword skills…". "Aahhhh…Still using that wimpy sword! That's no way to build up body strength! I tell ya, using knuckles and getting in close up and personnel is the only fighting style! Tell you what Van, you meet me in the training gym after school tomorrow at 18:00, and I'll take you on! Whats ya to say to that?" He looked behind him, and no one was there. "HEY! WHERE THE HECK IS VAN!". "Oh, he left when you finished your first sentence." Said Rinoah teasingly. "Hey, where's Roze?"
At the training field, Van just went up a school rank level, and was making note
"Okay, let's see, a Bomb: 45 exp, and I needed…30 more for level 19. YES! Now I'm level 19!". "Wow Van. Congratulations!" shouted Roze from a nearby bush. As Van turned around, Roze covered her mouth and ducked. "It's okay Roze, I knew you were there, you broke nearly every branch in your path.". "Wow Van, you could make a great soldier in our space army!". "Two things Roze. 1. There are no twigs in space. 2. We learned this stuff in Coach Bell's gym class." "Oh". "By the way, Roze, what are you doing here in the training are?". "Ummm… Training of course! I need 142 for level 17.". "But, you don't have your whip, and your still in your school uniform.". "Umm… well…". "Wow, you must be dedicated to come here so fast you forgot your gear!". "Umm… Yeah, I was in such a hurry I forgot. I'll be right back!". Van just looked up at the sky, so he didn't notice Roze running away blushing. "Launch City", he recalled, "The first place to send people into space. However, only three of the twelve launches came back unscathed. Those were the first three. After the first launch, the ships came back full of holes, and sometimes the entire wings or engine was removed. None of the astronauts survived, except for one. She said apiece of debris or something fell in the engine. That's what they say, but I know the truth. There are worlds out there with other ships and inhabitants. They are cruel, heartless, soulless to kill innocent people. Someday, I'm going to go to another world and make peace with it, if the space soldiers ever get out of orbit without crashing down.". With these words, Van noticed something. "WOAH! A METEOR!". Except this piece had different colors on it. "What is it, debris?" it came closer and Van could see what it truly was. "WOAH! A SHIP! FROM ANOTHER WORLD!". Van quickly used his STUDENTCOMP(Palm Pilot like computer things that works as a graphing calculator, clock, watch, and you can even download games and movies for it)to calculate the falling angles and speed. "IT'S GOING TO LAND AT THE LAUNCH PAD! I NEED TO GET THEIR RIGHT AWAY!". And with these words, he rushed headfirst into an adventure, not from this world.
