James got up out of bed at 6 am that morning. Turning off his alarm on his black and gold phone he went downstairs after getting dressed in his usual clothing. His long jet black hair had covered his face a bit since he hadn't combed it at all and was frizzy. James sat down in the backyard and cultivated for an hour before Isaiah had woken up. Unlike James, Isaiah took the time to fully do his black hair, combing it upwards in the front and the sides back a bit after he got dressed. When Isaiah came down he had his green hoodie over his shoulder, while wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans and some sneakers. Yawning he waved at his brother who was now looking over at him. James got up and went up to his little brother.
Giving him a high-five, he decided for once they would go and get breakfast from somewhere while they were out. The two walked out and looked for a nice place to get something to eat on the way to the school's arena. The two walked for a few minutes before coming across a big blue building with white letters, and a bunch of windows around the front of the building. This place was well known for having good and fast breakfast food. James walked in with Isaiah and ordered some food to eat. James got an omelet with sausages and some vanilla coffee. Isaiah got 4 waffles with some butter and syrup on it, as well as some sausages and hot cocoa. The two ate their food happily without thought. After about thirty minutes the two went back on their way to the school. Once they got to the building they saw their friends all sitting on the grass waiting for them.
Ben sat there with short, light chocolate brown hair. As well as his usual yellow hoodie that he liked a lot, and a black shirt under it. He wore blue pants and was also holding a small cup of coffee in his hand. To his left was Austin with his long blonde hair covering his face and the back of his neck mostly. Under his crimson red hoodie was a white shirt, and some black jeans. To the left of him was Will, whose green hair stuck out among the rest of the group. He also now had a gray jacket with white fluff coming out from the color of his jacket and surrounded the collar which came out about four inches out from the jacket itself. Will also had camo-pants on. Nicole was sitting next to Jess as they chatted. Nicole was wearing her purple hoodie but it was unzipped showing a dark blue shirt, and also had dark gray pants on. While Jess on the other hand only had a white shirt on with black pants and a belt around her waist.
When they noticed James and Isaiah walking over they all smiled and waved at the two of them. James smiled back but was also surprised that they had arrived earlier then they had. "Hey guys, yall ready for the finals?"
Austin replied, "hell ya. let's prove ourselves to everyone just how great we are!" Everyone laughed and cheered together in hopes of everyone doing well. After thirty minutes, it had become 10 am which marked the point when they should all get going inside. Walking inside the huge building once again, with high hopes they all skilled ready for the finals. Today they would definitely try their best to win.
Very shortly after the building was filled up with the students all taking seats with their friends getting prepared to either fight or cheer their friends on. James's and the group had many people keeping their eyes on them after the previous matches. There were a few other people who also seemed very powerful. Most of which were considered the top twenty students within the school. However many people were wondering if theses other students might climb into those ranks.
While the staff were setting up everything the students were making any final preparations if they had any. James sat there thinking about what he would do if he encountered someone strong. 'I don't want to use my electricity if possible, due to it could kill the other person if I'm not too careful, but mainly if I revel that trump card of me knowing magic, a lot of people will most likely have many questions for me. Although it's generally not to complex to tell someone, it would be rather annoying.' Sighing James decided that simply he would try his best to win, and only use his electricity if he really did need to. Isaiah noticed his brother seemed to be thinking about something but decided to write it off as just his brother thinking about something not too important.
Soon after the voice from all the previous matches rung out through the room once again. "Hello everyone! Welcome back to the finals of the ranking tournament! To all the viewers from home, welcome to the event and enjoy! Without any more delay, let's get right into it!"
The Announcer went on to say the starting people. however none of which were people who seemed to be that interesting to James. After a few matches pretty much the only matches left were talented students and one or two above-average people. In question, the people who were the top five people in the rankings before were of interest to James. He knew a little about them. Not much tho, he did know a few knew a bit of simple magic (which people already asked them a lot about before, but weren't given much info on it.) As well as the fact that they all were pretty good with fighting. What piqued his interest the most and worried him the most was the number one and two. They are the reason he considered he might have to use his armor in the first place. The number two individual was a 17-year-old man who had learned the magic of water, although at the moment he seems only able to create a small amount at a time, it's still enough to make a weapon or something of the sort as well as control its movement. This could very easily be difficult to deal with on its own, but he also possessed a lot of skill with a two-handed sword. While the number one's magic was the same as his main ability. lightning. This would without a doubt be a problem to deal with depending on how skilled she is with it and what she has learned to do with it so far. She is called by many students the lightning princess, a very bland name in James's opinion, but it makes sense at least.
The boy was also called a water prince as well. Again, bland but simple in James's opinion, but their nickname was not really something he needed to care about anyways. Back onto the girl though, She was also skilled with the using one katana. If she learned how to do something similar to what James has, he's not really sure whether or not if he can beat her even with his full power. From what he heard she was already around Level 11. James knew the next matches will be pretty difficult and he would have to try his hardest.
