What's next?
Ohh crap
The next thing Diaz knew he had two elderly men standing over him trying to wake him up. “For the love of god boy wake up.” Shouted the first man shaking him causing Diaz to cough and groan. “Run and grab a nurse quickly, I think he has a concussion.”
“I should not have left before I made sure he was all right, damn it regretting it will not help him now. “ Said the second man wiping sweat from his forehead. “Jonassn I would appreciate it if you would come over here and help me get him off the floor.”
“Ri.. Right let’s put here on the couch,” Jonassn says carefully grabbing Diaz's shoulders and head. “Gently now we don’t want to make his injury worse. There now where is that girl we need a nurse immediately.” He says pacing around the room.
“Jonassn if you don’t calm down then your gonna be the one In serious danger now sit the hell down.”
“You're right, I just never have been good with people getting hurt, and I’m sorry for making things harder for you Loyd,” Jonassn says as he sits down in his chair. “So do you think he has what it takes? I know it’s terrible timing for asking, but the color of his stone, I haven’t seen another human with one since Ravel.”
“Hmm, the nurse is here,” Loyd states trying to stop the conversation and opening the door. “He is over there, I have no idea if he can understand us but he is awake.”
“Has he been like this for long?” The nurse asks l, grabbing her stone and treating the injury. “No, no more than five minutes anyway.”
“Hmm, then he ought to be up in a few minutes then. I’m going back to my office if he does not wake up bring him there.” She states walking out of the exam room.
Loyd and Jonassn wait and watch Diaz for several minutes before he gets up. “don’t move so quickly now. You had a concussion and a bad one at that.” Loyd says helping Diaz to sit up. “The name is loyd and you and I are gonna have a chat.”
“Umm, are you sure that’s a good idea?” Jonassn asks, “He did just come too, after all.” “I I will be fine, I don’t feel bad just a little dizzy, but what do we need to talk about?” Diaz asks interrupting Jonassn and tacking a good look at Loyd, Thinking he looks familiar, “I hate to say this but who exactly are you I think I have seen you before somewhere.”
“I would hope you recognize me, after all, you and I both come from Raiken. Maybe you will recognize my title. I am Loyd of the silent blade, the second human Arcane Warrior.”
All Diaz could do was look at the man more noticing the sword strapped at his side and the relaxed demeanor he gave off. “Well umm this is getting awkward as hell now, Say something before I get Jonassn there to get the nurse again,” Loyd chuckles out.
“You-you’re really that Loyd? It’s an honor to meet you sir,” Diaz stammer trying to stand up. “Now I told you not to move so, please just do that. I swear I had no intention to get famous when I joined this school,” Loyd says trying to calm Diaz down.
“The boy met his idol what do you expect? I’m just surprised it took him this long to recognize you.” Jonassn laughs out, “Most recognize you on the spot.”
“Keep this up and he won’t even be able to speak, Jonassn. Now, more importantly, we need to speak about your future at the academy. A score of 18 and a rainbow elemental stone means you can join the Arcane Warrior class, but there are no other candidates this year. So we can do one of three things, choice one is to hold you back a year where I would train you personally at which point you would rejoin next year as a third year, but you would have to kill Dia as you would not be officially enrolled. I Kno-“
“The answer is no I will not kill Dia. We may not get along but we made a deal I plan to honor,” Diaz says in a deathly quiet tone stunning both Loyd and Jonassn. “So what are the other options? “
“Hmm you have guts kid and that honor code will take you far. The second option is you would be placed in as the second year where you would join as a backup squire, but I don’t envy the tasks you would be **** to do,” Loyd says with a clear tone of disgust over that option. “The third option is one that would be both the best and worst option. You see we have a problem second-year student, who nobody will work with. It’s too the point where we may have to expel her, but if you agree to take her in as a unit then we will let you start as a first year. You would have command of a squad and would even be able to have a squire be your second instead of her. So what do you say? Will you take her in or do you wish to join as a squire?”
“ I’ll take her in as a part of my squad. Just tell me what is her problem? Is she a lousy fighter or something,” Diaz asks? Trying his best to sound and look confident.
“She tries to hard and refuses to allow slack or emotion in her unit. She is an Arcadian, but even they see her methods as too ****. As they believe honor is fighting for what you believe in and encourage emotions, she does the opposite. If you will follow me I will take you to your orientation, and I believe you already know two people who are there, at least partially.” He says helping Diaz up, “Now as long as you can walk let’s hurry.”
(Just realized that I have forgotten tm put up the reference art for Loyd so here Y'all go https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/480078095370551307/482906447605137429/f72aa85d98b799acc46bcb637fb880bf.jpg)
