"Principal, why did you choose him as the tenth spot?" A woman said while storming into his office. "Rose please don't storm into my office like that." The man said he looked to be in his late 20s with black hair and had a certain aura to him. "But, There were many who deserve that spot much more than him."
The principal just started to chuckle while he said "You have much to learn Rose, I decide the spots based on potential and I couldn't see a point in the future where he wouldn't grow" He said while looking at Rose with an excited look like he knew what would happen in the future. Rose looked at him and then asked "Then why did you not put him in third place?"
The principal stood up and walked towards a window where you could see the whole school ground and said "Do you think the Howl family would allow that. Someone from the slums having more potential than their perfect daughter? I placed him in tenth place for his safety."
Rose started to understand but she still doubted Vexx's potential. Alright I understand she said while bowing and walking out. When the principal was on his own he sat in his seat once again and looked at some files of a special student and said while a small smile appeared on his face "What's your secret Vexx Ward?"
At the same time in the boy dorm there were three boys walking towards a reception where there stood a middle aged man who told the students where their rooms were.
Vexx stood with Blake and Kamari while waiting for their turn. "We all are in the top ten! And that means that we all will have the special lessons together." Kamari said while looking around the room with wide eyes. Vexx did the same thing while Blake just shook his head while seeing how they behaved. "We are in a school, you know that right?" Blake asked while seeing how they flinched and slowly lowered their heads. "I have never seen something like this," Vexx said while pointing to a few things he was impressed about.
Kamari nodded and said "I lived in a small village where we had basic things like TVs and cars but nothing like this he said and pointed towards small drones who carried packages and delivered them to the rooms. Before long it was their turn. "We need to know where our rooms are" Blake said,
"I need your names. The man said while looking at the three. "Blake River" Blake said While the two who stood beside him also answered. The receptionist, whose name was Tom, answered and gave them one room number each
Vexx, Blake and Kamari nodded and started walking in the direction Tom pointed at. The corridors were big and long. At the end there was a stairway which led to another corridor with more rooms. When they had climbed the stairs they saw more doors and eventually they had found their rooms but just as they were about to say goodbye one of the doors opened, they turned around to see who it was.
"What are you looking at?" The large man in front of them snorted. Vexx was taken aback about the tone but kept a straight face like he didn't hear the comment.
"We were about to go into our rooms, do you have a problem with that?" Blake calmly explained to him, wondering why he was so aggressive.
"You better not get in the way of me. I will climb to the top on the next exam!" He said and left.
For a second they just stood and took in what just had happened. Eventually Kamari asked what he had ment with climbing on their next exam.
Blake sighed and started to explain "The difference between The hunter academy and all the other academies is that the top places switch. Every exam they will evaluate your score and you will be assigned a new rank."
After the unexpected encounter they decided to go their separate ways and decided to meet up at Vexx room in two hours. When Vexx entered the room it was kind of plain looking with one window with a view of some training fields where some students were training in.
When Vexx took a closer look he saw that it was two girls who fought. He could see that the ones who were fighting were quite popular because there were around 40 students looking at the match.
Vexx decided to head out and watch the fight because he didn't have anything better to do. When he got closer to the field he recognized one of the girls who had blond hair and held a sword in her hand. It was Naomi who he fought. When Vexx came to the field the fight was almost over but he saw how naomi swung her sword to slice right thru bullets that was heading towards her.
The other girl had brown hair and a crazy look on her face. Her wide smile was very sinister like a spooky doll. She held a gun in her hand and had two other guns strapped to the side of her thighs. She continued to shoot bullets right towards Naomi but she was fast enough to either avoid or just hit with her sword.
When Naomi was behind her she placed the sword right at her throat and the crazy girl admitted her defeat. Almost everybody cheered for Naomi and wanted to fight too. After the fight was over Vexx had already started walking towards his room. When naomi had put her sword to her side both girls laughed she looked towards a spot in the crowd and said "I thought i saw him"
The brown haired girl looked at Naomi and asked "Who did you see?" Naomi looked towards her and shook her head. "No one" Naomi said and started walking towards the dorms.
