A meeting

An intimidating aura surrounds the table. Kiyatana sitting opposite the man Kiyoko met named Diafthora. Miss Shiyuya sitting opposite the queen with bandages over her eyes.

"There is no point in waiting any longer... Haineil has already gained control over several smaller countries... But it's evident that they are now focusing their efforts on Taking over RoeKanaoWorth... First by nearly taking out the court of appeals... Then killing my husband" Kiyatana slowly nods.

"Our forces are already spread thin... We have to get the extra forces from somewhere..." Diafthora seems annoyed as he relaxes in the chair.

"Why don't we ask some of those Royal academy students... They've already proven that they were stronger than your average Knight" Kiyatana thinks a bit and looking at the map on the table.

"We have no clue where they plan on invading from... So if we put each student in command of a regiment... Then we can defend the whole border... Sending the strongest students into the most difficult battles..." The Queens dry eyes look on in disbelief.

"Since this is war... That means the royal family can't do anything but watch... Since we're in The Kampa state and all... I have faith in your strategy Kiyatana... But it pains me having to send Kids into war..." Kiyatana sighs. Miss Shiyuya facing the Queen but struggling with her vision.

"I can say this if it's all I can say... If there's anyone in this Kingdom more ready to sacrifice themselves more than my kids... Id be in disbelief..." Kiyatana takes a deep breath and smiles.

"Then it's decided... Now... Who goes where is the biggest question"

Kiyoko lays there with his head down. His headache getting better but still there. Frederic calmly patting his back. Elijah sits in his seat struggling to stay up. His stomach in pain. His sword broken. Shioka walks into the room with a determined yet scary aura as he leans against the back wall. Emily lays sleeping on Elijah's lap with dry eyes. Myoya was completely silent in his seat as Miss Shiyuya walks in.

"I'm glad most of you could be here... Minus Lucas who is still in a coma... And Liam who is in critical condition... Now I have some important news... You 6 will be joining the war as commanders... Each with your own Regiments to command... This will be our last meeting as you each leave midnight tonight" Frederic looks up.

"Why Midnight?" Miss Shiyuya nods.

"We have no knowledge of exactly when they plan on attacking... Be ready at all times... Id like to believe this is my best class... So I trust you on the battlefield..." There was a slight tension.

"Frederic Doyal... You will be in command at the town of Hardport... Along with two others from the Royal knights..." Frederic takes a deep breath.

"Right..." Kiyoko sits up and looks around.

"Kiyoko Oritsu... You will be on the RoeKanaoWorth/Yuka border... You will be in command with Another Royal knight and Head of Exploration... Diafthora" Kiyoko gulps and nods as Frederic starts getting nervous.

"Myoya Mizushi... Elijah Mason... Shioka Oritsu... Emily Winters... You will be on the Eastern border... The largest border between RoeKanaoWorth and Haineil... Also referred to as the Great Divide" Shioka nods. Elijah looks at Myoya who calms him down. Emily still napping.

"That's all for today... I put my faith in you that I may be able to teach this class once more... Good luck... And may fate be in your favor... Remember you ARE CLASS 1!" Everyone looks up.

"Yeah!"

Kiyoko puts his sword on his waist as he sits down. Frederic walking over.

"Are you okay Kiyoko...? I bet your nervous huh?" Kiyoko sighs as Frederic sits down.

"I get it... I'm nervous too..." Kiyoko looks down.

"It's just... This will be the first time I've gone somewhere without you with me..." Frederic's eyes widen as he also realizes.

"Have you... Ever noticed..." Kiyoko looks up at him.

"War is Cruelty... There's no use reforming it... But... This war may be violent... But the most violent wars... End the quickest... I think" Kiyoko slightly chuckles.

"Thanks for that... I needed the laugh..." Frederic slightly smiles.

"But don't listen to me cause I've never seen war with my own two eyes... So" Kiyoko smiles and hugs Frederic.

"The sun is going down... It's almost time to leave..." Kiyoko and Frederic stand up. Frederic holds out his hand to Kiyoko.

"Good luck out there... Kiyoko" Kiyoko takes a deep breath and smiles. Taking Frederic's hand.

"You too... Frederic... Don't die on me" Frederic pulls Kiyoko close and tightly hugs him.

"I won't" Kiyoko nods.

"Then neither will I" Kiyoko smiles as they break the hug. Kiyoko takes a deep breath as he runs to the Balcony. He jumps onto the railing and jumps through the sky. Looking straight out at the setting sun. Frederic jumping off the balcony but not getting the same distance or height.
