Where am I?, All I can see is vast darkness and twinkling lights,is this space?,I am floating in space just staring into the vast darkness, I can feel it, a great source of light is behind me but how do I turn my body.
After struggling a bit I managed to turn my body to the view of a large mass of glowing energy,it was as large as a star or even larger and radiating a purple glow but it wasn't bright enough to be a star. In the middle of figuring out what was before me I noticed five human figures approaching me from the purple glowing mass,but just before they were close enough to see their faces I awoke from my dream.
I was back in my body but I felt different like there was a new strength coursing through me ,and that's when I noticed the crest given to me by master Julius on my chest had began to glow bright purple. What is the connection between my dream and this weird mark? I asked myself.It was around 1am but I still couldn't get any sleep so I decided to see if I could find anything out about this crest on my chest.
[Zone 6 military and research base] [Location: unknown]. "Sir!come take a look at this,it seems somebody has established a meteor link."
"What did you say!?,is it Julius".
"No Julius' link was lost two days ago,this one is different."
"This only means the crest has been transferred, and this mystery person has already established a link?,find his location".
"From the area of the energy spike he appears to be near khamin, sir".
"Gather the troops, we're retrieving the 'Apostle crest' no matter what!!"
I awoke on my study desk when the sun came up, I must have fallen asleep eventually but I can't remember when,the crest on my chest was still glowing even through my shirt. I freshened up and was now pondering how to hide this strange development.luckily the glow could not be seen through black clothing.
I heard a tap at my door and assumed it was Vanelope, she is the only one who comes into my room anyway.
"I already told you you don't have to knock to come into my room Vanelope".
"I'm not Vanelope,it's just me".
"Father,what do you want here"I said taking a serious expression.
"No need to make such a serious face I'm not your enemy".
"Then what is it you want from me so early in the morning".
"Come with me",he said as he walked out of the room and I tagged along behind him. He led me to a section of the mansion I hadn't been before after all I'd been prohibited from accessing many spots in this mansion due to my position in the family . We entered a large room full of weapons and I meekly followed him to a section that displayed different tiers of gears. Gears are super protective clothing made from fabric that has been synthesized with pulze using very advanced technology,and they definitely cost a fortune.
"Pick one out for your match tomorrow,the school says it's required to have at least a low tier gear".
I hadn't heard about this but it's possible the school sent a letter to my father, I looked through and picked a black outfit from the low tier section,but I was wondering how all of them fit my measurements perfectly.
I made my way to the locker room after arriving at school on Monday, apparently my match is the first on the list for the first bout scheduled for 9am against Chloe Stevenson. Chloe was also in the locker room getting prepared ,she wore a low grade gear just like me.
"At least you showed up,I was sure you were going to chicken out",though popular,she's known for being annoying and looking down on people she believes to be inferior to her. I was already in a bad mood for no reason so I wasn't interested in her small talk.
"Just shut up and wait for your beating,I won't hold back just cus you're a girl",I said looking at her with cold sharp eyes.
"That's funny coming from a talentless nerd like you, remember to put up a fight so it won't be like I bullied the weak",then she walked off with an annoying laugh. If she was trying to play mind games on me she should already know it wasn't effective against me.
Seats were getting full back at the arena and the tournament was just about beginning, the officiator took to the stage in a white low gear.
"The selection tournament begins today and the rules are simple,use any means necessary to immobilise your opponent or get them to accept defeat but no external influence is allowed the candidate helped would be immediately disqualified....with that let us begin the first bout with the first match up between the non ability user Brian Strider and evolved Gamma ability user, Chloe Stevenson.
