Tales of Orion: Rise of the Angelite

Chapter 5: 8 years on…

Alrighty Everyone!!! Here we are… it has been 8 years since the destruction of the Town of Dew. Here is where the story starts… Scarlett and one of her classmate are having a duel to compete for the Royal Purple banding, Master Level in Double Sword Fighting.

Here we go (>v<) Let's begin…

In the Training Arena, the atmosphere is filling up the arena as students are entering the hall with much anticipating. It's the showdown between two of the institute's best students in the Emerald Green banding for Double Sword Fighting as they are competing to achieve the Master Level Grade which will earn them the Royal Purple banding. So far only 1 or 2 students were able to achieve the banding.

One of the competing student is Ben. Ben is a brilliant student in the arts of double daggers. Rather popular with the ladies but an arrogant guy. He believe that he will attain the Royal Purple banding.

"You will never beat me Scarlett!!! I have not been beaten yet!!!"

"We shall see, Ben!!!" Scarlett smiled with confident.

Scarlett, who longed has attained Royal Purple banding for Arts of Water Attack during her first senior year at the age of 17 and she only started Double Sword Fighting in her second year under the teaching of Master Vincente and just within 2 short years, she is ready to be graded for Royal Purple banding. Scarlett is swift and agile, together with her water attack, she was able to defeat Ben to attain the Royal Purple banding for Double Sword Fighting.

As Master Vincente proudly present the banding to Scarlett, her classmates cheered. Scarlett, is filled with pride to achieve her banding. But it wasn't like this 8 years ago when she first started lessons in Infinite Institute.

(Going back 8 years ago…)

"Good Morning students. I hope you've enjoyed your spring break and welcome to Junior Grade 8. Today, we have a new student here to join us. Let's welcome Scarlett Aurora to our class." Said Ms Lauren Harton

"Look at her eyes!! She's one of the cursed race." said some of the students

"Remember class, our institute accepts anyone regardless of race. Even an Angelite like Scarlett are no different from us. As quoted by our last King of Gaia, 'An Angeline is one with looks as beautiful as an Angel as well as an Elite among all others'… So please, let's not make Scarlett feel left out. Now Scarlett, please go to your seat."

Scarlett, feeling a little unsure, took a deep breath and went to her seat.

Some of the students steal a glance at the new student with much hesitated yet curious about her.

A couple of weeks passed and Scarlett has been mostly on her own as the students in her class are still caution about her.  

But the impression that Scarlett felt from her classmates is soon to change…

On one windy night, a huge lightning struck one of the dormitory and a huge fire began. Some of the students are unable to escape from their dormitory rooms. Scarlett and some of the students from the Water Arts class came to help but the Senior students are unable to control the fire as the fire is getting bigger!!!

What happened next amazes everyone even Master Vincente. With a wave of her hand, Scarlett summoned all the water around the area, creating a huge bubble of water as she levitate it on top of the burning building, clapped her hands and the bubble burst into droplets of snow and water. The snow helped to bring the temperature down while the water droplets eventually extinguished the fire…

The students cheered as they see Scarlett who's an Angelite, risked her life to save her fellow schoolmates and because of her courage, the fear about the Angelite student has starts to fade away…

As the years passed, Scarlett proved to be a very strong competitor as she took on almost all of the boys in her level once she begin her grading exams. Scarlett's ability has awe and admired by the boys and girls in the institute…

(Going back to current chapter)

It's been 8 years since and Scarlett is a well-respected student and a potential candidate to be Master Vincente's Underling. Despite all the fame from her achievements, Scarlett remain humble and as soon as after she achieved her Royal Purple banding, she began her training for the upcoming Bi-Annual Tournament.

What will she expect in the upcoming tournament and who will she meet?

Afterword: I hope you enjoyed reading Chapter 5: 8 years on…, Till my next update ^^
