HERO SCHOOL!

Nikolai sits quietly, scared that Luna will hit him.

Grokh sits, a mix of horror and awe on his gaping face.

Luna held her shoulder in obvious pain. "You bastard! You don't know how to hold back!" she hissed through tears, "I TOLD you my shoulders weren't doing well lately!"
Mr. Lokree got up looking very dizzy. "I'm...sorry it's just.....sometimes I can't help...it," he said looking like he might throw up.
"I'LL take over. Go see mom." Luna snapped as she fixed her shoulder.
Mr. Lokree walked out wobbling a bit. Luna then turned to the class. "I'm sorry about that really. I've been trying to help him with holding back when sparring but he's not good at it. That's why you'll never have to fight him," she explained, "Now, does anybody have any questions.....maybe you want to see something demonstrated?"

Grokh raises his hand and asks "Is it anythin we'z not allowed ta do fightin eachotha?"

Nikolai looks around the room, seeing if there was anyone who would stand a chance against Grokh [Dedtoo you should hop on the server]

"In this class, you are not allowed to cause serious injury like broken bones. And you aren't allowed to hit sensitive areas or the eyes," Luna replied, "This class is meant to get your feet wet when it comes to hand-to-hand combat."

Grokh mumbles to himself "Dis is gonna be a bit of a borin class then..."

"Hey, if you wanna be a hero you gotta learn to fight the right way," Luna said, "Hand-to-Hand is the only place that has strict rules. But follow them and you'll learn how to knock out any person in one hit to the stomach."

Arc tries to sneak into the hand-to-hand class.

Grokh thinks (She can hear everythin dammit! Wait... Ya cant hear dis, can ya?)

Luna noticed him walk in but didn't say anything. She took a deep breath. "Ok, so are there any other questions?" she asked as she looked around.

Grokh smiles slightly as he thinks (Oh thank da spirits! She cant hear me think!)

Arc quietly takes a seat and tries listen in.

Then he notices the teacher.

"-w- whoa..."

"Since no one seems to have any questions I guess I'll start a classic lecture that I would normally give about the school huh?" Luna said with a smirk, "Let's see.....many years ago when I was young..." she started secretly hoping someone would have something more interesting they wanted to learn about.

Arc sits there listening while unable to keep an eye off the teacher.

"I had just finished defeating an evil which plagued my home and I was constantly asked by younger children to show them my moves. They always tired to imitate me," Luna said walking back and forth across the room, "I didn't have the means back then but that was when I started the plans for this school. I promised myself to try my best to make a school where people can learn to fight properly and learn from the best heroes around."

Nikolai opened up a journal and began his first entry.

"Many years later it was discovered that I was the princess of Markatta, the world we're on right now. Ivalice gave me the perfect place to build the school. I worked hard and saved bits of money that weren't needed and were donated towards building this school to buy all of the materials," Luna continued, "And so, stone by stone, I built my school, the one you are now attending. I'm proud of my work THIS was my heroic accomplishment. This will last longer than any story. I really hope you guys can call this place home.....because you'll always be welcome here."

Nikolai raises his hand. "Why did you build it stone by stone if you could just do what you did to make the room bigger and make the fighting arena?"

Luna smiled. "Back then I wasn't as powerful for one thing. For another....I wanted to put my heart and soul into this place. I took pride in the labor I put into it. Magic would've been the easy way out....I never take the easy way out," Luna answered.

Arc was just smiles and nods to everything the teacher says.

Luna looked around at the class. "I'm gonna let you guys out early but don't get used to it. Lionel has a tendency to run over his class time. But I have one question for you all.....how many of you are going into magic?" she asked.

"I'm going into Nature magic, I'm already okay at it. I had a good teacher."

(Magic... Magic...)
Arc raises his hand
"Excuse me miss.....umm"
Arc struggles with her name.

"Most of us orcs can't use magic, so i'm not goin to try that class." Grokh says
