Chapter 1: First Impressions

Somewhere on the outskirts of Greece...

Christopher looked tired, panting and sweat covering his face, carrying a rather heavy-looking backpack. Infront of him walked Shaina, looking light as ever, her gaze set forward. However, she was quite distanced from Chris, as he had slowed down quite a bit due to the weight of the backpack.

"Keep up, will you?" Said Shaina, sounding a bit frustrated, though not seen in her face due to her mask covering it.

"Ngh...Easy...for you...to say..." Said Chris, obviously tired from all the effort he has used. "You aren't the one...carrying the bag.."

She sighed, before walking over to him, and taking the backpacl from him. As she put it on her, she kept walking normally, as if she never had the backpack in the first place. Chris was not impressed; he was astonished. Any person would struggle carrying something like that, and yet, Shaina carries it like it had nothing.

"How?! Even you should be feeling the weight on your back!" Exclaimed Chris, completely baffled at how she is able to do it.

"I am feeling the weight. I simply am enpowered by Cosmo. " Said Shain, who then looked a bit ahead and sighed of relief. "We have arrived"

As Christopher got to the top of the hill with Shaina, he looked out to see a very big village, the houses looking rudimentary and old. The people also seem to dress as if they were in the11th century. Beyond the village was an old colosseum, surrounded by armored individuals training with most kinds of weapons. As Christopher walked past the village, the people looked at him in a rather odd way, as if he was a stranger to their way of life.

"...Why are they looking at me like that..." Asked Christopher

"The way you are dressed." Answered Shaina. As they reached the colosseum, the soldiers they walked past stopped to look at Shaina and greet her everytime. Christopher did not question this, as Saints were meant to be the strongest warriors of Athena, so respect for them would be a normal thing. They reached a rather big building past the colosseum, and you could hear singing and laughing from within. As Shaina opened the door, they entered a big lounge area, filled to the brim with soldiers singing, drinking or arm-wrestling. As they noticed her enter, one of them commented:

"Hey, Shaina! Glad you could make it!" He said, before another one came and asked: "Whos's that little guy behind you?"

Before Shaina could even answer, Christopher jumped past her in a fit of rage towards him. Luckily, she reacted quick enough to grab him and keep him from jumping at the man.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING LITTLE?!" Said Christopher, clearly angry at the soldier's remark. Shaina managed to put him at her side, before looking towards them and answering:

"He is a future Saint."

As she finished her sentence, they all became surprised and stared at the boy in disbelief. Shaina then walked him across the lounge, and as they climbed up some stairs, the soldiers began whispering, instead of partying. Shaina and Christopher walked across a big hallway, filled with doors. Shaina stopped infront of one, and turned to Christopher, showing him a key, and setting it onto his hand.

"Here is a key for this room. It's yours. Be sure to go inside and get set up. Tomorrow, your training begins"

Christopher looked at the key thoughtfully, before looking at her. "Listen...I don't think I can become a Saint. I mean, look at me... I never fought for my life, so I don't think I can-".

"Yes, you can". Said Shaina, getting his attention. "Cosmo is empowered by our will to fight. You may not have a will now...but I think your father would have liked to see you fight for something".

"How do you know that?" He asked, somewhat curious.

"You will know soon." With that, Shain walked away, leaving Christopher alone. He sighed to himself; He knew she was hiding something, yet he cannot do anything or ask. However, that gave him a reason to stay, and find out more. He knee, deep down, that this was somehow related to his father's death. As he put the key into the lock, he felt a set of red-orange eyes, and turned, only to see an empty hall. He was extremely sure he felt a presesnce there, but as soon as he turned it was gone.

"...Must be my imagination..." As he turned to the door, he unlocked it, and walked inside. As soon as the door closed, Leviathan appeared out of the shadows, pondering on who she just observed.

""Christopher Valorian, huh..."" She thought, before moving away...

Inside the room, Christopher noticed a basic bed, and a shelf. He dropped his backpack at the side of his shelf and dropped on the bed. He was very tired, and only wantef to sleep. When he looked out the window, he was surprised that it was night. As he looked at the night sky, he noticed a few of the constellations he had learned in Astrology: Cygnus, Dragon, Orpheus...After these thoughts, he remembered Ophiucus is one of the constellations.

"So the Saints are based off constellations. Cosmo makes sense now" After this, he pulled out a sandwich from his backpack and began munching. This would have to do for tonight, but tomorrow, he hopes he can get a more decent meal. After eating, he laid himself on the bed and closed his eyes, attempting to get some sleep...

The following morning...

At the sound of ringing bells, Christopher awoke, somewhat still sleepy and groggy. He wondered what time it was, but with no clocks to tell him, he got off the bed. He slept with his clothes on, so all he had to do was prepare his hair and walk out the door. He moved past a few people who did eye him, not sure what to make of it. He reached the mess hall, where other people who dressed similar to him were. He immediatly realized they were also Saints-in-training. He moved to pick up his food: A bottle of milk with some bread filled with butter. As he sat down alone, he looked about, some others simply minding their business or chatting with the others. As he was distracted, he did not notice the pale-blue haired sit beside him.

"Do you mind if I sit here?" She asked. He became atartled, jumping a bit and facing her. "Uhm...sorry if I scared you." She stated, her face showing her serenity and kindness.

"Oh, I-I was just distracted! Please, take a seat." He answered nervously, to which she giggled and sat down. "So, uh, are you new here?" He asked, attempting to make small talk.

"Yup. Leviathan Regas, pleased to meet you"

"Christopher Valorian. Nice to meet you, Leviathan"

"Same." She stated, eating a little of her bread. Before long, another bell struck. "It's time to begin! Come along, Chris" She immediatly got up and pulled him with her.

"H-Hey now!" He said, giggling a little after that.

"I don't want to be late with my first friend here" She said with a smile.

He laughed nervously. This was going to be a fun experience...
