The Village Disciples

IN A FOREST NEARBY KODAINA

"Uhhggg, are we almost there?" a voice questioned, belonging to a cloaked man with red streaks on the sleeves, with a hood draping over their head. As well as seemingly annoying a partner who's dressed in similar attire, except that they're wielding a wooden staff.

"We're almost there, it's just on the other side of this forest. Just be patient." Answered the partner.

"I am being patient! It's just that we've been walking for awhi-" The man stopped talking as he took notice of the edge of the forest they were traveling through, "Itami, look. We finally made it!" declared the man, celebrating by punching the air repeatedly.

The partner stopped walking and looked in the direction the man was talking about, then smiled. "Well then, we should stop by and say hi. Shouldn't we, Doryoku?"

They both started walking again, as they were walking. They passed a sign that read,

'Welcome to Buruan Village'

BACK TO MR. OSHIERU'S CLASS

Mr. Oshieru can be seen sticking and swirling his hand around inside a cup full of marked sticks, sticks marked with the names of students.

With his eyes closed, Mr. Oshieru's hand stopped and grasped onto two sticks, then he pulled them out and opened his eyes.

"Team A: Apiru Naderamu and Tanjo Nozomu."

Tanjo's eyes widened ever so slightly, along with Naderamu nodding. Indicating that they heard Oshieru, and then grouping together.

Mr. Oshieru continued drawing sticks, grasping on two sticks again calling out,

"Team B: Senko Sukudo and Shizen Utsukushi."

Once their names were announced, they both grouped up as well. Standing side by side

Then Mr. Oshieru simply picked out the remaining two sticks and announced.

"Team C: Naguru Akogare and Ninki Meisei."

Once all the teams were grouped with their designated teammates, Mr. Oshieru took a breath and stated, "Now that you're all grouped, I want you to stay grouped up with your partner and go to where the blue markings are on the trees and remember the rules. The main ones being to just follow the markings and be wary of your surroundings, as well as trying to be the first ones out of the forest, so think of it as a race if you must."

5 MINUTES LATER

All of the students can be seen in different areas of the forest, some crouching on branches that are lower to the ground and others simply standing behind trees, more specifically with Tanjo and Naderamu.

"How familiar are you with climbing trees?" Asked Naderamu, glancing at Tanjo with a blank look.

"Uhh, not... so good," answered Tanjo, feeling uncomfortable under Naderamu's simple gaze.

"All right, if that's the case. Then we need to figure ou-"

*BOOM*

Tanjo and Naderamu snap their heads in the direction of the loud noise, then noticing that the challenge began by spotting a big blue beam being shot towards the sky, also witnessing birds in the vicinity fly away.

"Shit, we need to run. Follow the blue markings!" ordered Naderamu before running forward,

shortly after Naderamu started running. Tanjo followed, keeping a keen eye out for any blue markings.

WITH MR. OSHIERU

Mr. Oshieru can be seen jumping from branch to branch, scouting for any of his students. What Oshieru failed to say was that 'he' would be the reason for the fight for flight method. Oshieru would attempt to find and 'attack' his students.

Oshieru wasn't too pleased with his student's abilities, but they definitely needed work. But Tanjo was a different story. He didn't seem to know how or when to use his magic. But when he did, it was overwhelmingly strong. Something that definitely needs to be taken care of if he ever wants to succeed as a warrior.

As Oshieru was scouting around, he sensed one random aura. He then came to a halt and then hopped in the direction of the new aura. As he was chasing after the foreign aura, he noticed a dark-hooded figure crouching on a tree. But not too far ahead of the figure were two of his students, running on the ground, still attempting to find a way out of the forest.

Shortly after identifying the figure, the now apparent intruder jumped towards the students. Oshieru quickly followed suit, just as the hooded figure was about to reach the students. Oshieru was intercepted by kicking the hooded person, knocking them down to the ground, and keeping them away from the students.

"Damn, what hit me!?" said the hooded figure, now standing up.

Just as the figure stood up, Oshieru landed on a branch and spoke out to the intruder. "Hey! Who are you and why did you try attacking my students?"

"Ah, well color me impressed, you managed to sneak up on me. I still can't even sense your presence. But no matter, you still failed to notice my partner." declared the Intruder.

Oshieru's eyes widened tremendously as he saw a bright green glow take up the area. Turning around, he saw a bright beam coming toward him. He had only just now seen it, and he could only dodge getting his leg seared.

"We got a fast one, huh." Stated the second intruder.

"I won't ask again, who the hell are you guys, and why are you attacking us!?" demanded Oshieru,

"You don't seem to be in a position to ask for demands." stated the first intruder.

As Oshieru was contemplating how to deal with them, one goal was at the forefront of his mind.

'I need to make sure they can't get to the students'
