A vast garden was filled with multiple people who formed different groups. But inbetween those many groups there were smaller groups and some people who just stood alone.
Of those smaller groups there was one which sat in the corner. A group of two people, both of the people within this group were girls whose appearances would be angelic if not for their ragged and dirty clothes.
Zenith's long gold hair which perfectly matched her pure white skin and golden eyes were draped down her shoulders as she slept with her head rested on another girls whose look completely contrasted Zenith's radiance, and yet her beauty was of equal standing.
The other girl had long black hair which went all the way down to her waist and she had desolate black eyes which perfectly reflected the world she saw back on you, this only made her white skin stick out as it contrasted her black hair.
There were multiple gazes from the boys which surrounded them, their eyes indulged in the superb appearance of the two, but none dared to close the distance due to the cold gaze of Vivy, the black haired girl, who rendered their attempts to get closer obsolete before they even started.
"It seems everyone is here. The entrance ceremony will begin."
A loud, audible voice echoed throughout the garden and a little ways beyond the wall.
I immediately understood what this meant and started shacking Zenith in order to wake her up.
"Huh... is it starting?" Zenith
"Yes, It's about to begin." Vivy
Standing up the two girls , Zenith and Vivy prepared for the entrance ceremony.
"For this year's entrance ceremony how about we do dueling."
The voice spoke to everyone once more.
"It'll be one on one duels. Based on how you do in the duels will determine your class."
"Welcome to the Aquosis Academy and I am Aqua Xis, of just Aqua X."
The garden was filled with mummers after they finished the Oscar worth speech of an introduction.
"I will now be teleporting every student to their respective one on one battles which will happen one at a time so you guys can watch your future opponents and find ways to counter them."
"The battles are random so you never know who you might fight."
The mummers were silenced as the Aqua X person spoke about the battles they'd go through.
This left some of the students surprised, others were a little scared- as hinted on their faces, and some were excited to see how powerful they were compared to other students.
Zenith had completely woken up and was also one of the people with an excited look on her face as she was probably waiting for the actions to happen.
"Let's get this show on the road shall we."
Aqua X's voice echoed throughout the now empty garden as all the students had been teleported to a Coliseum type stadium which allowed them to watch the one on one battles from above.
"First battle: Crain Banks against Roy Graylion."
Aqua X's voice was still as loud as ever as it echoed throughout the stadium like a microphone.
The two students suddenly appeared in the battling arena down below and faced opposite eachother.
"3...2....1....Begin!!!" A loud metallic sound reverberated and commenced the start of the first battle.
After a good 3 minutes of back and forth ,where it was obvious that the Crain Banks kid had the advantage, it ended with Crain Banks' victory.
"Don't worry because even if you lose once you'll have the chance to fight again and prove your potential and power!" Aqua X's said.
"Next battle is Vereta X against Noah Auburn."
Exactly like the first battle these two girls were teleported to the arena area below.
After their fight ended in Vereta X's Victory the next battle started right after.
"Nixon Fin against Yazimir Leapi."
In the next moment a boy and girl, respectively, appeared in the arena.
This battle was a long and drawn out one as neither or could overpower the other, but after ten minutes the battle concluded with Yazimir Leapi victory.
*****
Hearing Zenith's name being called I tried to wake her up before she got teleported but I was too late.
"3...2...1... Begin!!!" The robotic voice repeated once again.
Zenith's body had just come to wake up when she was teleported into the fight and she was rubbing her eyes whilst the enemy, Jennena Snow, rushed at her.
'Zenith, Zenith, Zenith.'
I repeated in my head as if trying to telepathically warn her.
Opening her eyes she saw the enemy only about two feet away from her with her sword extended out towards Zenith's body.
Instantaneously thousands of not hundreds of golden strings launched out from Zenith's body and they all stopped the sword attack in its tracks as well as grabbing onto the enemy and stopping her body from moving and turning her into a living human statue.
"That was a quick one. The battle ended just as fast as it began. Zenith's Victory!"
Aqua X's commentators voice said.
Then Zenith and Jennena Snow were teleported back to their seats in the stands.
Patting Zenith on the shoulder I then said:
"You didn't tell me you were that strong. If I'd known I would have had no worries."
"Hehe. I'm stronger than you."
Zenith said
"Woah, hold your horses there young one. I am clearly a lot stronger than you."
"Next battle: Crain Banks against Logan Infernal."
Moments later Crain Banks won again and claimed his third victory.
He must be some killing machine in order to defeat three people.
Then the next battle commenced and ended and then my name was called as I was teleported from my comfortable leaned back position to a not so comfortable standing position.
"3......2.1.....B-...Begin" The bot said.
A gust of wind was left as I rushed forward and so did my opponent.
Throwing a fist m which hit my opponent squarely in the head I stood there.
"Victory to Vivy Velvet!"
I waited to battle just to beat him in one punch.
Seated back in my chair I looked at Zenith and then said:
"So who's stronger?"
"You are."
"Hum.. that's right."
*****
The entrance ceremony lasted a total of 4 hour with around 45 people being unqualified, me and Zenith obviously passed as we both defeated all our enemies pretty easily.
Now seated in some large auditorium which houses the 425 students who would later become academy students.
Aqua X then finished her speech about the academy policies and other things and then every student was given a blue watch which was specifically designed for them and would help them in their everyday academy life.
"Now classes will start tomorrow. On this watch you will be given the option to choose two classes you want and the other five are decided by us, the academy higher ups."
Aqua X left us with those words before she walked away and left the students to find their dorms with their watches and do whatever they want today because tomorrow will be the start of the real businesses.
