Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Selection IV

"It looks like it's you and me Timothy," I confidently said. I was glad that is opponent was going to be him. I had already devised a plan for if they ever met.

"Just promise you won't hold back," Timothy gladly said. He was also glad they were going to continue their fight, this time not holding back. 

we later went over to the cafe that we now visit often and were also now serving breakfast, to get us started for the day. There was a cafeteria and a restaurant in the school where they can get breakfast. 

But we wanted to see what the cafe had to offer. Welcome, the door mat welcomingly said at the entrance to the Sakura Cafe. It was a little crowded because of the new menu.

Looking around for a place to sit, we spotted Theodora chatting with another person. Timothy walked up to them, "you made yet another friend so soon," he said.

"You never change," he continued. I slowly walked up behind him. The person she was taking to looked familiar, I stopped and tried to remember for a second. Oh, I remember him, I think is name was Oliver. Why does that sound so familiar. I walked up to them and asked to be sure, "you're Oliver, right." Oliver looked at the approaching person, in response to his name he said, "yes, I'm Oliver Shidono."

"Wait Kelvin, is that you?!" Oliver asked in surprise. I was surprised as well. How does he know my name.

Oliver- It's me, Oli.

Kelvin- So it is, it's been six years since the last time we met.

Theodora- Seems like you know each other.

Kelvin- The two of us were best friends with my childhood friend until his parents moved out of our town.

Oliver- I thought I recognized you on stage, how's Mari. 

Kelvin- She's fine, how about you.

Timothy and Theodora looked at each other, feeling left out they tried to join in the chatter. After eating breakfast and catching up, our new band of friends went over to the school shop to take a peep at our new school uniforms. 

"So, this is my uniform," Timothy said while trying to fully feel the uniform. "How do I look?" he continued. The boys' uniform for the first years was full red pants, a white shirt, red suit and a red tie. Red color represented you has a first year.

While blue pants, white shirt and blue tie represented second years, and purple was for third years. A black tie was worn by prefects and the class representatives had gold lines on their tie depending on what year they were. 

"You look kind of, weird," I said and laughed. "How about me, how do I look?" Theodora came out of the dressing room. For the girl's uniform; red skirt, white shirt, red bow and red suit for first years and so forth.

The skirt was short, revealing her legs which Kelvin and the others had never seen before because they were mostly hidden by her stockings or her long clothing. 

Oliver and I were a little speechless, but I managed to speak, "you look beauti...., you look great. "I quickly rephrased my sentence knowing what I was about to say. Theodora was flattered a and rushed back into the dressing room. 

Unfortunately, we could not take our uniforms with us. There was a rule about not taking uniforms until the intended day of opening.

4' o clock was the time, and the school arena was already filled with students, eager to see the fights ahead. In the VIP room, the important people had an overall view of the arena. 

There were several high-ranking clan members of the master clans, them too were eager to see for themselves the fights, and of cause a veil was casted by Dins with that type of special magic.

 Up in the commentary booth Kageno, a commentator for the tournament was accompanied by the student body president. Benard Kennidy, a member of the side branch of the Kennidy clan.

Kageno quickly went through the rules, "the rules are simple; the winner will be decided when the opponent is either knocked out of the ring, unconsciousness or submission."

"Without further or do, the match will begin. First up we have her majesty, the second princess of our kingdom. Princess Elizabeth." She came out and appeared on the walkway to the stage.
