"Come on, Stas let's go to my house." Stas thought for a minute whilst walking, "I have to ask my mum first." Stas then pulled out his phone and the screen lit up to show a red wallpaper with blue stripes. He unlocked his phone and started to dial some numbers. "Hello, mother." A woman from the other side responded.

"Hello, son. I was just about to call your phone. No one is at home yet so go to the park or do something for a couple of hours until your sister gets home." Stas would think about how he was he was going to phrase his question.

He took a deep breath and asked, "Can I go to a friend's house for a few hours?" Stas's mum when silent before asking, "Boy or Girl?" Stas was shocked at this question and he regained composer, "Girl" His mum sighed.

"If it is ok with her then I see no issue with going. Have fun. Bye." The call disconnected as he slipped his phone into his pocket. "She said it is okay with her." Sylvia smiled as she started to walk past the row of houses. They walked and talked until they arrived at the station.

"So about Dante should we convince Huro and Antonio to kick him from the company?" Sylvia thought about it before she gave a one-word answer, "Yes." She didn't seem to want to talk about it. "Should we tell Huro that the company is at risk because of his past actions? Dante isn't a good person. But do you feel like we are being too hard on him?"

She looked at him before giving a quick and cold response, "No I don't." This silenced Stas and any attempts of him to press the matter. He thought of something to say but he really didn't have much to say. He decided to say silent until he had something useful to say.

The public announcement system activated and it dinged, "Tram 25 is on the route. It will follow the same route as Bus 25. Bus 25 to Shallen Grove is preparing to leave the station." They got onto an old tram. It wasn't the new hovering tram but it went on wires.

"So do you live in a house or like in an apartment? A tower block?" Sylvia thought and spoke, "I live in a 23-story tower block. I live on the eighth floor." The bus reached Edge Warren Square stop where the tram stopped as passengers started to get on. There were other students but no one paid them any mind. The tram stopped as it reached the roundabout and it drove through.

It made a turn at the third exit. And continued over the bridge and went to Sylvia tower block. It was a massive tower block that Stas never noticed and they abandoned the bus. They crossed the road and walked over to the tower block.

"Would your parents be okay with me?" Sylvia chuckled, "Yes if you can defend yourself. My dad will punch you once. Either you block, take it like a man, or dodge but if you show any type of pain, he will kick you out for being too weak."

    They entered the lobby. It was a red and wood-themed lobby. It looked like a very budgeted place. Sylvia and Stas walked toward the elevator and got in. It was smaller than a normal elevator. "So do you have any brothers or sisters?" Sylvia sighed and breathed out. "I have a brother and two sisters. They are all older. I'm the youngest."They walked out of the elevator and took a left. The duo walked through a doorway that separated the elevator and the residents. They strolled through the door and walked to an apartment that had the number 83 on the door. "Act respect, don't come across as a bad person." Sylvia knocked on the wooden and after a minute a woman came and opened the door. "Sylvia, how was sch-" She stopped mid-sentence to look at Stas and change her question. She started at him for a second, "Sweetie who's this?" Stas took in a deep breath before giving a response. "I am Stas Waygand and you are Sylvia's mother, I assume." Stas stuck out his hand for a handshake. "You

    Stas sat down as Sylvia's sister and brothers just stared at him. It was like a moth to flame or deer in headlights. They just stared at him, "Why do you guys keep staring at me?" Sylvia's sister responded first, "Are you my little sister's boyfriend?" Stas immediately shot this down. "Are you strong?" The brother questioned after his sister.Stas thought to himself, "Why isn't Sylvia back yet?" Stas responded, "Yes I am. I'm the highest-ranking person in the year." The other sister spoke, "What if my sister is being bullied would you beat up the bully?"Stas took a deep breath before responding, "On the first day. Your sister stood up for me and the guy tried to attack her. I beat the guy up but he burnt off my face I managed to heal my face and wound the guy. So I would."The sister who asked this question was shocked. She was astonished.

    Stas finished his food and Sylvia showed him to the kitchen where Sylvia's mum was doing the washing up. "Leave the plates here I'll wash them, Stas." Her mom smiled. Stas and Sylvia put down the plates and walked out. "So what's with the tight shirt?" Stas questioned in a whisper."I'm not going to tell you that!" Sylvia said a bit embarrassed. They walked into the living room where her dad just sat. "So Stas where are you from, Stas?" Her dad asked with vigor, "I'm from the Isle of Barrarike. My mother is from there and so was my dad."At this moment Sylvia's dad got up and punched Stas with all his might. It hurt but it wasn't that strong. "I see why you are one of the highest ranks in your year." Stas stood there completely unfazed. "You good?" Sylvia asked Stas put a thumbs up. At this moment Stas's phone started to ring. He pulled the phone out of his pocket. He answered the phone. "Hello... Gracie just got home... Ok... Bye." He hung up the phone and looked at Sylvia, "I've go

Dante waited for them to leave before he left."Why did you wait for us to leave then you left?" Stas questioned and Dante responded, "You guys know I'm not as strong as I use to be so I wouldn't drag the company by my slowness." They walked down the hallway and up the stairs to the main building where they met Voll. He seemed to wait for them, "Voll are you going to join us?"Voll laughed before he spoke, "No I am not but the Sword Sisters will and they are a bit behind so you need to go before them."

    "Also can these be my clothes as long as I wear the uniform underneath?" Cephas grunted, "Yeah sure. What is your name? I will keep it a secret."

    "My sight is partial." He said through his gas mask, he walked down the hallway. His eyes were still visible but his face was not. He walked to the cafeteria to see Bug Ten sitting alone and eating. He sat down across from Bug Ten, "Your class lost to Stas, right?" Bug Ten looked up at the masked warrior, "Oh, it's you aren't you a terrorist? I don't even know if I should even communicate with you."Dante was completely shocked at Bug Ten's ability to speak in full coherent sentences. "I thought you were an idiot. Since you spoke in the third person and always spoke in short simple sentences."

    "What do you know about strength anyways, Ana? Judging by the marks on your necks and the possibility of you being able to teleport and fly, you were burned. Maybe you weren't able to register what occurred meaning the person was too fast for you to even react to. If I keep prying you will cry." She looked at him with anger in her eyes and glared at him."So if the person was able to move so fast, you couldn't think properly and was left open.

I thought it was RAW STRENGTH." Julia considered this for 3 seconds as a door burst open and heavily armoured men with canons on their right arm walked in. Their insignia was a golden trident encased in a black circle. On the circle was 'TITAN COMMODORE' in big, bold, white letters. The trident was extended onto the circle. The men were carrying massive guns which looked like futuristic rifles but the rifles had two modes, a flamethrower mode and a taser mode.They had helmets which had mouth covers with goggles which were tinted black.

    The guy looked downcast and started to walk away until Stas spoke up, "Wait, Reset the machine!" Julia looked at Stas before turning it off and on again to reveal a score of 2093.

You move on to the starting rounds of the tournament."The lean tall guy looked at Stas with a smile stretching from cheek to cheek, "Thank you, sir. I have finally gotten somewhere because of you, sir." Stas looked at him with a confused face and raised eyebrow, "Gotten somewhere?" The guy was still smiling as he bobbed up and down slowly. He spoke, "Because of you I move on to the tournament and have a chance to get promoted. I am still a private because every time someone stole the limelight. Thank you, sir." Stas smiled as number 85 walked away cheerfully."That was certainly interesting," Seth commented as he sat down matches passed for around an hour, and after the
