Hello everyone! Firepo45 here with yet another chapter in my story! I apologize if I haven´t updated sooner, but school gives me way more headaches than the ones I ask for xD! Anyways, this chapter will have some small combat involved, so it should be somewhat likable! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own Saint Seiya or any related content. Christopher belongs to me, and Leviathan belongs to stormy003

Chapter 1: Let the training begin!

Christopher could not believe his eyes, as he felt himself being dragged towards the open area by Leviathan. She seemed sweet enough to him, but he just felt like something was off with her. Nevertheless, he wouldn´t dare to say anything, at least not for now. Before he even realized, he had reached the outside of the big house, right next to the colosseum: the area was deserted, perfect for any kind of training. Careful observation allowed him to see Shaina, and more armored people close to her speaking amongst one another. Him, Leviathan and the others approached, earning their attention. A red-headed female with a mask similar to Shaina´s walked up, and began speaking.

"Alright now, everyone. I am Aquila Marin, Silver Saint." Christopher was always careful as to remember a face, in this case, the armor she wore."You are all gifted in the use of Cosmo, a mystical energy that empowers us and allows us to do unnatural feats. Each one of us Silver Saints shall take one of you as our protege, and teach you how to fight. However, not all of you will become Saints, as there are only two Cloths available".

'Cloths?' Thought Christopher. Shaina did not mention any of it, but refocused as he noticed Marin speaking.

"Cloths are the armor that protects us Saints. The lowest is Bronze, which are the frontguard Saints which wear it. Silver is stronger and is worn by those who go around the world doing Athena´s orders, and seeking fresh Saints to join us...And lastly...Gold. It is the strongest of all cloths, and is only worn by the strongest in Athena´s army. They are tasked with her personal protection. Now, we shall each pick you out, and begin your training.

Christopher looked around, no one in particular picking him out on the small crowd. He imagined all the other people had been here out training a whole lot longer than him.

"Leviathan Regas." He looked up, her name having been called. She looked to him, and spoke.

"Well, seems like this is goodbye. You gonna be okay?" She asked, concern somewhat in her voice.

"I guess. Good luck." He said, her nodding, and going away. He turned to see only him and Shaina left. His luck might have just worked for him.

"Seems like I will be mentoring you. Come along... and try to keep up." Before he knew what she meant, she began running fast, and he began chasing her.

"H-Hey! I barely got picked, and you are already testing me!?" He screamed. He seemed frustrated and surprised. He knew it could be somewhat hard, but he wouldn´t just let it go so easily. He kept running and running, until he reached a field full of gigantic boulders scattered across it. He saw Shaina standing on top of one, looking down to him. When he stopped he panted frantically to catch his breath.

"C-Could you...warn me...first..." He said between pants, Shaina jumping out of the boulder, and landing infront of him.

" I had to see just how fast you were...Now to see your strength..." That line alarmed him more than ever, before he saw Shaina running up to him, and attempting to claw him. He closed his eyes, bracing for the impact, but before he knew it, he moved his head aside, dodging the strike, before moving back up.

His thoughts began to go wild. 'H-How did I do that?! I-I was gonna be hit, but then, my body just...' he was left no more time, as he noticed Shaina coming up to kick at his side. He quickly rose his knee to block her leg, once again surprised at how he just thought of it, and how natural it felt. Shaina jumped back, and nudged for him to go at her. ' Should I just go at her, or...' he shook his head, and begun running at her. Somehow, he began moving fast, and Shaina gasped, as his fist was right almost on her face. She managed to dodge it barely, it grazing her mask, and hitting the boulder behind her. The boulder cracked, but did not break. Christopher became wide-eyed and astonished. "W-What the heck!? H-How did I do that!?"

Shaina was smirking under her mask. ' He only just began fighting, and already he is a natural fighter...' She coughed, before speaking. "That was your Cosmo. It spoke to you, and told you what to do unconciously. All you had to do was be quicker than our actions." She walked up infront of a boulder. "Cosmo allows you to wield superhuman strength, speed, and agility. But it also allows you to execute special movements linked to your constellation. Look at yourself". He did, and he noticed red energy-like waves leaving his body. "That is Cosmo. I have done your reading, Christopher...You belong to the Lynx."

"Lynx?" He asked.

"I will explain later...Now. Let me show you a move only Ophiucus Shaina can do!" She exclaimed, before she began spinning her right arm in a counter-clockwise motion, leaving it pointed upward. "RISE NOW! MY COSMO!" She shouted, an abnormal amount of purple energy building up in her, which made Christopher step back. Her hand then became engulfed by purple lightning, and then she shouted. "THUNDER CLAW!" She sent her hand down, going past the boulder. One second later, the boulder was cut in five, it falling apart. Christopher was amazed at such power. He was now determined more than ever to train.

"C-Could you teach me!?" He asked.

"I will. After all, that is my only move, but it is quite powerful. Now, what I meant by Lynx is that that constellation is the one that protects you. It also protects other Saints, but only one of you may have the Cloth. Two Cloths are currently being fought over: The Lynx Bronze Cloth and The Hydra Bronze Cloth. If you want to win over that Cloth, you need to train a lot, young man...And let me tell you that my training regime is tough."

He knew those words were pretty damn sincere, even though he could not see her expression. ' I came all this way...I will not back down now!' He thought. He had finally found out about himself, but then he spoke. "I will train on one condition..."

"And that condition is...?"

"..You will tell me about my father if I win the Cloth" He said, determination in his eyes. Shaina was caught a bit off guard with that, but if that would get him to try harder, she would have no quarrel with it.

"Very well. Shall we begin?"

"Yes!

And there you have it! I´m sorry if it seems a bit short, but as I stated many times before, I am new to writing fanfics, as I was used to reading them. Anyways, I´d say it´s well written, considering I am new. Do review, favorite and follow! Kudos!
