Nancy groaned as she leaned against the wall of her dorm room,she processed her first day at Kendrick's,although it wasn't what she expected,she couldn't get the school scenery of her mind.
"What a day" she sighed a relief and began settling in.
She noticed rockstar poster pinned to the wall at the other side of the room,a red candle stand on the bedside. The walls painted black, to her surprise the bed was arranged very properly,with skeleton pillows arranged well.
Nancy was flabbergasted.
"Hey didn't see you there"
"Yh nobody ever does,now let's keep it that way and mind your business" Nancy looked for words,it felt like she was dumb.
"Um am Nancy.... Nancy Yeager"she said with a broad smile on her face.
"Yh whatever "replied Rebekah
"Ok.... yh so I believe this is the part you tell me your name"Nancy asked.
"Yh..... sure am Rebekah,and please don't bother me at all,I don't want mrs goody two shoes bothering me"she said,her grey eyes examined Nancy from head to toe.
Rebekah was tall,her hair was lengthy and as dark as night and it had a russet tint,her ears had double piercings,she had a skeleton cross on her neck,she believed it could scare demons away.she wore high boots and a emerald ring on her index finger.
Meanwhile Nancy smiled back and started unpacking.
it was certainly the type of room she wanted,her room was baronial in nature,it had a cross ventilation system,a whole bed to her self.certainly not bunk beds,she felt it was like being imprisoned against your will,she also had an en-suite bathroom. her roommate grabbed her coat.
"I'm heading out,don't lock the doors" she said glaring down at Nancy.
"Need anything"
"Nope,thank you" she replied abruptly
Nancy sat on her bed,hands groping for her diary(recording daily events had becoming a ritual for her and she had been itching to tell her "dear diary" about the events that had unfolded today)
"Dear diary..." she began,smiling as she took a short trip down memory lane.
"Today kicked off on a weird note,mom had been super hyper this morning and I've got to say,it was a very rare sight to behold,mom had always been a woman whose personality could be described as more tiring than entertaining,she could bore the living hell out of a my life but well,it was very different today"
She wrote smiling as she reminisced her mom's boring jokes on ancient Mesopotamia and their undefined fear for evil spirits..
Her throat had suddenly gone raspy and sore, she shoved her diary aside,reached out for her rucksack and struggled with the zipper which had turned out to be a Napoleon to defeat. Nancy finally won the struggle with the zipper and got a bottle of soda pop from the rucksack.
She popped the bottle and gulped a mouthful,Nancy picked up her diary with renewed enthusiasm and continued her mental recollection.
"Well,aside from mom's behavior today,I finally got into Kendrick's! I literally thought the school as a mind-numbing place,but it seems things are going to turn out for the better this year" She paused halfway and remembered Fredrick.
"I almost forgot to tell you about this jerk,oh Heavens! Writing about him even sucks,he probably thinks himself unbeatable. That douche bag spilled soda on a lady ruining her clothes and pricking her pride..Well diary,let's leave the aloof douche and talk about something else;there's this really cute guy who showed me around Today...I know his first name though...Nicholi! Yeah,that's his Name,I just knew I couldn't possibly forget the name of such an attractive hunk of flesh..I just hope he doesn't become aloof with time though.Well diary,we'll have to explore Kendrick's together I guess"
Nancy concluded straightening her flexed spine,sipping the soda pop in little successive bits.
Her eyes gazed at the ceiling continuously for a while,she wondered what kind of adventure tomorrow held.
Putting the drink aside on the shelf next to her bed,she laid down and covered up still gazing at the coffered ceilings one more.
She was caught unaware,slowly drifting off to sleep.she then slept for good.
" Hey Nancy Yeager wake up" said Rebekah, Nancy rolled about her bed.she was lost in the land of dreams.
"Hey get up its morning already,how long were u planing to stay in bed"she said pushing Nancy over, she finally woke up,Rebekah left for the door.
Nancy woke up,her head pounding.bladder full,she moved her jaw and felt her mouth was dry,she jolted in fear,she wondered where she was.
"Oh yh am in Kendrick's now"she reminded Herself
She slipped out of bed walking diagonally towards the water closet , it had a jacuzzi inside,she knew she was about to have the best morning yet,she picked up her brush and put paste on it,therefore comencing her morning routine.
When she was done cleaning up,she wore her skirt,it's length limited on her thigh.
She heard a horn blare twice in quick succession,what was that she thought to her self,what could the sound be all about.
"Hey,New girl " said Nessa as she strolled into the room.
"I remember you, you are Nessa right"
"Yh I am"replied Nessa
"I was just on my way out,when I heard the horns blare"she began
"Yh today is training day for us,for you it's when you get your chimera blade"she said ,showing her the blade entangled around her skirt.
"Well we have to get going"she pulled Nancy by her hand.
"Wait"she said as she picked up her jacket,it's was blue,gold thread running through it as an embroidery design.
"Okay let's go"as both of them left the room,closing the door behind them.
They walked down the hallway,greeting others as they passed them,other students kept staring at Nancy from a distance,but they didn't approach her.
Passing through the garden.
"Why is everyone staring at us"Nancy asked Nessa.
"Well it's definitely not me they are looking at"Nessa replied
"It's you silly you are the new girl around here" she said giving Nancy a nudge on her shoulder.
"So where are we heading to"
" we are headed to the colosseum"
"Colosseum....."
"Not the ancient Roman colosseum, it's more like a citadel for meetings.the only difference is that it's exteriors are designed like a colosseum so we call it that."she said reassuring Nancy,not to think to much.
"Wow that's incredible"
"Yh,you could say almost all our buildings look like the ones of old"she said,as both girls continued walking,passing a big sculpture that some what looked like a gargoyle,frightening at sight,Nancy kept her cool and continued walking straight for the colosseum.
They greeted the teachers entering the enormous building.other students shuffled in afterwards.
Each student taking their seats in rows,shaped like an arc,the coved ceiling hung far above,two pillars hung from the ceiling to the ground.the were led lamps that served as wall lights.
In front of the arc shaped seats,which the students sat on, were seven elevated seats behind a straight long table.
A man walked out a door.
"I am Vladimir rusev,as you all know.
Today marks the 100th annual ceremony of blades"
Whispers filled the coliseum,Nancy focused her gaze on Vladimir,the middle aged man that registered her into Kendrick's,she heard a door creek wide open,therein emerged the six members of the x class,all wearing caped uniforms.
Their cape was black in color trimmed with gold,grey threads embroidered on their capes making them look formidable.
They all ushered them selves to there seats,silence swept through the arena. Everyone's lips sealed shut.
Once again the doors opened again,but it was the noble 1 of the 53rd order,Andrea Maximilian walked to the center of the elevated seats.
Nancy was puzzled when everyone stood up their right hands across their chest,four fingers pointed out while the thumb folded in,their left hand firmly behind there back, she stood up moments later trying to mimic Nessa.
The x class comprising of, lord zack,lord l, lady rose,lady Tiffany,lord Oliver and lord Richard,peforming the same salute displayed by Vladimir and the students.
She looked firmly at all the students.
"The hunters code" she echoed
"A hunter shall only slay a beast
He who kills a human shall be out to death"
"Hunters are to kill only elderly beast not young ones.
He who kills young ones has forgotten the road to redemption"
"A hunter who is transformed in a beast shall take his own life
He who doesn't has forgotten his humanity"
they all echoed in response to the hunters code.
"The hunters code is a code of honour and morality that organized what we call hunters today,a hunter symbolizes dedication to the code by choosing his/her chimera blade"said the noble one
"Lord Oliver,if you may"she said,everyone returning back to their seats
"Well that was interesting" whispered Nancy to Nessa
"I know right it,it gets me all the time"replied Nessa
"It seemed like a cult stuff to me"Nancy whispered again
"Shhhhhh"someone said from the back row behind both ladies
"As you all know the chimera blade is forged from napoleon steel,a rare alloy found in the mines of napole" said Oliver
"It is the weapon that gives us the edge over the creatures and ofcourse our elemental abilities,then now bring forth the blades"he yelled
"Immediately clocked figures emerged from the east end of the colosseum carrying blades embedded in their sheaths,they walked slowly across the students,halting directly in front of them.
"Vladimir if you may"
"The list of students that joined us this year"
"Duncan washbury
Mary colander
Smith Davies"
he kept on calling names for a while,Nancy began to wonder if she was an old student already.
"Nancy Yeager"he yelled.she shuffled out of her seat and walked towards him
"Now lady Tiffany if you may"
"Well this blades are to be on you at all times"she began
"You must first create a connection between yourself and the blade, in other words you and the blade become one.
You must never use it against your fellow hunter only if deemed necessary"
"Punishable by being locked in the garden"lord Zack chipped in,whispers swept through the hall,Nobody wanted to go to the garden,it was a cruel place beneath the colosseum, a place of metal torment designed for supernaturals.
"What he said,"as she sat down, the elemental power was a symbol of the bond between nature and man,a magic ability passed down by the keeper, a primordial embodiment of elements.
The new students proceeded and pick up the blades in front of them, sickle like in nature.
"You May return" Vladimir said, Nancy kept her eyes on her blade as she worked back to her seat it definitely suited her style,she looked up,Nessa waved at her smilingly,she went to her seat,showcasing her blade to Nessa.
"Well you may proceed to the training grounds, the top students are to take the newbies under there wing."
Everyone stood up and shuffled back out the way they came in. As Nancy and Nessa fought their way through the crowd a gentle touch from behind fell on Nessa shoulder. They both looked back.
"I see you guys are close friends now" Nicholi said
