''"It's not the packed stands of the Circle, but that will change soon enough..." Jericho Corey  ''thought to himself as he entered the sparring area of Beacon academy. It was morning and few people were present to watch the sparring match. Not surprising as it was a just a friendly match between first-years. Some of the students had conversations with one another or were waiting for sparring partners of their own but Jericho did not mind, soon all that would matter to him would be confined to the small platform he was standing on.

Not long after Jericho watched as his opponent stepped into the ring, a young man with red hair and a wicked looking blade as his weapon who went by the name of Orion Kane. Jericho smiled as he noticed they had a similar choice of wardrobe, both wore a sturdy jacket and almost everything they wore had a dark color. After his sparring partner had taken his place on the other side of the fighting ring a protective shield was raised to block stray shots during the fight and the screens above the platform flickered on to reveal their names, photos and current level of Aura. The same stats were displayed on their personal Scrolls. After a signal from the teacher who would judge this match a timer began counting down from 20 seconds to mark the start of the first match, if you weren’t ready by then the opponent had every right to kick your ass.

As the seconds ticked by Jericho still stood there, arms crossed and looking like had had everything under control. He made no move for his sword or gun even as the final seconds passed by. He just stood there, waiting for his first strike.

The buzzer rang and the match had begun.
