"Errors" Academy

After arriving at my destination I followed the direction to the academy that was near here so after a few minutes I arrived at the entrance to the academy.

Wait for a second, why do I hear noises out of nowhere?

After walking a while more I could see two guys in black masks discussing something.

I'd better ignore them', it was certainly strange the fact that there were people like me talking but I didn't feel like talking so I walked away.

.....

in another part of the academy

In a hidden place, there was a person whit a mini-hologram on his wrist.

- "Did you understand the objective of the mission?"

- yes, to convince them to join the cause or capture them dead or alive.

- "understood, good luck"

after the call was disconnected, the subject looks at his watch and headed towards the entrance.

...

"2,4,6,8,10, and where is the last one?" asked the instructor.

'...'

'...'

'...'

"Well, it seems that this generation is not only lucky, but also laz....

"I'm here" I said quickly as I arrived.

"Well, now that we're all here, then..." the instructor thought for a brief moment before saying.

"all of you go to the dormitories located in section A4, then wait for the next announcement, you can also go to the training room where we will test your affinity with the E.M.S" the instructor said before moving on to another place.

'Ok, that was quick. Then I'll go to my room and I guess I'm going to get some rest' I thought as I walked to the dormitories.

On the way I could hear a group of footsteps and voices talking so I hurried to avoid hearing them.

When I got there I put in the code and the ID and as I entered when it was about to close the door it stopped and then a black-haired person appeared at my door.

"This is room 4002, maybe you made a mistake? I asked with a formal tone.

but then the guy said, "eh, here it says 4002 if you notice you could see that there are two beds and two desks".

he told me in a direct way

"Ah, my bad," I said quickly after I put my stuff down and lay down on my bed.

"em, why are you so evasive with everyone?" he asked after placing his things on his desk.

"It's simple, why do you think I should talk to others?" I asked

"so I can form a friendship and waste time I guess," he said.

"But it's better not get close than to lose someone you care about in the middle of a war," I said at the end.

"Good point but also if you continue with that though I wouldn't be surprised if the next day you throw yourself off the roof, by the way, my name is Kai," he said with a friendly tone.

"...My name is Eden," I said with a paused tone from the unfunny joke I just heard.

"Oh by the way, now we should go to the training room so we can test our skills, I heard they were giving a reward and a promotion to the winner of the contest" he commented with a little bit of excitement in his voice.

"no thanks, if you excuse me I'm going to sleep..." but before going to bed, kai showed me a picture of the prize which was a box that said on the article

'With this, I will be able to survive longer on a battlefield' I thought to myself.

"When do we leave?" I asked almost immediately after I finished thinking.

"When it comes to rewards, you answer fast, but anyway, let's go there," he said, walking towards the exit of the room.

I followed him partly because of the reward and also because of that little curiosity to know what kind of ability I could use.
