As my brother and I are running towards the dome we spot our friends Kenja and Zor. Kenja, a brown haired caramel skinned girl who wears nothing but anime tees and jeans unless wearing school uniform or her parents literally make her wear something else, has a crush on Su although Su is completely oblivious of it, possibly due to his obsession with animals. Zor is several shades brighter than Kenja but with shoulder length black hair whom we met at the arcade and been friends with ever since. "HEYY SUKO" Kenja yelled her nickname for us embarrassingly loud but I'm used to it at this point. Even though I'm the oldest, she still puts this meatheads name first and he still doesn't get the hint. Linking up with them, we make our way to the dome as we wait in line for our random ticket numbers. Next in line I step to the desk as the employee asks my information. "Name, Training, and Desired Affiliation." the employee asked. Oko Bey, martial arts and swordsmanship, none, I responded with pride in my voice despite being nervous that my transformation might force me to be dependent on an affiliation. Su of course said the same as I while Kenja who trained in the art of the staff wanted to join the Martial Kingdom. Despite his laid back personality, Zor was a crazed monster when we sparred, using an axe with total disregard for any injuries. He picked the Battle Kingdom, a kingdom of battle fanatics whom hold the thrill of battle as the highest pleasure to be obtained. Getting our tickets, we went further down the line as there was a section where our pictures was taken for identification. The employee was a beautiful woman in fitting office uniform, showing her perfect figure as she directed us to where our pictures would be taken. As I stood on the X in the floor I stared at the camera waiting for my picture to be taken when I locked eyes with the employee who was obviously blushing at my good looks. Not to brag but I'm 6 feet tall, nice build, red eyes like my mother with locks touching my middle back. "I'm a catch boo I know", I laughed inwardly as I finally got my picture taken and it was Su's turn. The only difference between Su and I is our eyes, mine are red while his are a godly golden. "IT'S TWO OF THESE FINE ASS M**** F******!!!!!!" The employee said staring at Su while I cut my eyes at Kenja who is fuming, clearly considering hitting this sweet employee with a mean two piece. Kenja and Zor took their pictures and met us in the huge waiting area filled with hundreds of participants where there was a huge tv screen on the wall showcasing the enormous crowd and on stage, the representatives of each major and some minor affiliations. Su is practicing his hero stance and speech for when his transformation is announced while I'm still lost in thought about what happened at the Uncle's smithy earlier. I've practiced with many different weapons to gain familiarity, but none could compare to my compatibility with the sword. To have that reaction with another weapon let alone a scythe, what was that strong familiarity I felt? Pushing those thoughts to the back of my mind I glance around the waiting area looking at the many different participants when I notice a familiar unfriendly face, Cain, giving me the death stare. Looking at Su and motioning my head to Cain and his usual 2 lackeys whom I call "Square 1 and 2" due to their excessive display of ass kissing they do for Cain primarily because he's rich. As soon as Su turned around they of course walked over to do their routine shit talking and ass kissing, seemingly oblivious to the fact that any time Su or I sparred with them at school they always lost one sidedly. "Well well well how's it going copy and paste?" Cain sneered with wide grin on his face.
