KINETIC

'Cain seems to be a very friendly and outgoing person, it's the type of personality I don't particularly mix well with. Clay is a lot like Cain, he's very friendly and seems to treat everyone with kindness, he doesn't seem to be as outgoing as Cain though. I get along well with people like Clay. John is very awkward and shy, it's a personality type that I feel very indifferent about, I think he just lacks confidence. He actually reminds me of Zack when I first met him.' Leo spent the previous night listening to the other 3 talk, he hadn't gotten involved in the conversation but these were his observations.

The first night had gone by and Leo and the other 3 all got out of bed and put on their uniforms. Cain walked to the door first and spoke to everyone, "Let's get going, I really don't want us to miss breakfast."

Clay got up and walked to the door without saying a word. John replied to Cain, but he had spoken so softly that nobody could hear him.

'I do need to find out more about how the academy works, and I have no reason not to go with them.' Leo got up and followed the other 3.

The group went down to the floor below them, the 3rd floor. They walked into a large room that had dozens of tables all over, styled like a cafeteria. The room was filled with other trainees.

'There are 25 rooms and 4 people in each room, if I assume the rooms are all full, then there's around 100 people. There's a decent chance some of the rooms aren't full though, such as how mine only had 3 people until I arrived.' Leo thought.

The other 3 all walked to the other side of the room, where a long line of trainees were standing, waiting to have there food given to them. There were several cooks standing behind a counter, handing out food to the cadets.

The food being given was a bowl of soup and some bread. Some of the cadets were complaining about the quality of the food, while others were saying how happy they were to be given food on a regular basis.

'I suppose that's the difference between nobles and commoners. Most of the trainees are probably commoners.' Leo thought.

Leo got into the line just behind his roommates. John was at the front of the group and then Cain and Clay.

Cain was talking to Clay about what they might be learning once the classes start, "I think they are going to have us doing combat training all day, we have the most power out of anyone when using abilities so we are a huge asset on the battlefield." Cain said.

"Of course we will be taught how to fight using our abilities, but I believe they will teach us other things in the beginning. They will have to teach us the military's way of doing things, the ranking system, as well as the correct procedures to follow in certain situations." Clay replied.

"We don't need to learn all that useless stuff. It's just a waste of our potential and their time."

"Is that so? So what will you do when someone of higher rank shows up, you wouldn't even know that they were a higher rank. What will you do when people are dying around you because you don't know the procedures to follow in an emergency situation?"

Cain was taken back by Clay's words," I-I suppose you're right... I hadn't really thought about somet.." Cain stopped speaking because there was a commotion up ahead that interrupted him.

3 trainees were standing by John, one of them was talking while the other 2 just stood behind him, "Listen here you peasant, I'm not waiting in line like the rest of you, we are nobles and we deserve to be treated with respect." the one in front said.

He was about 1.77 meters tall, slightly shorter than Leo. He had short brown hair and a scar over his left eyebrow. He has a slightly larger build than Leo.

John tried to reply but because of how nervous he was he stuttered horribly, "I-I-I w-was t-the one who s-stood in line..." John was shrinking back and way by the second.

"I'm Trent Zemor, of house Zemor. My family is very important to this kingdom, and if you don't move this instant I'll..."

"You'll do what exactly?" Leo interrupted.

Trent look at Leo with an annoyed expression. "Who do you think you are to interrupt me? This doesn't concern you peasant, I'll forgive you for interrupting me this once, now begone!" Trent waved Leo away.

Leo walked forward and stepped in front of John, getting between him and Trent. "It seems the spot you want belongs to me, I suppose that means I'm involved now." Leo said. Leo was scowling at Trent the entire time.

Clay called out to Leo from behind, "What are you doing?! Don't provoke them, they're nobles, there's nothing we can do." He sounded panicked.

Leo replied, "I refuse to stand here and pretend like these so called nobles aren't acting like common bandits, trying to strong-arm others into giving up what's theirs."

The fury on Trents face was apparant, "COMMON BANDITS!!? Who do you think you are to talk to me that way!? I'll show you the error of your ways, you'll learn not to fuck WITH A NOBLE FAMILY!!" Trent extended his right arm towards Leo and an orange glow started to form around his hand.

Leo prepared his energy, circulating it around his body. Leo's entire body began to be encircled by a blue glow. Leo activated his Aura and took a step forward to attack.

Trent lowered himself into a stance, like he was preparing to stabalise himself on a swaying boat, his hand glowing brighter than a moment ago.

"STOP THIS AT ONCE!" A booming voice carried across the cafeteria. The voice belonged to a man wearing a red military uniform. His uniform had 3 ropes attached to it.
