Lorenzo sighed loudly as he walked through the halls of the cram school wearing the uniform but he wore his demon sword that held his flames in the small of his back so he could pull it out sideways and thankfully since his sword was not average size it didn't look to weird. Lorenzo came to the cram school in the hopes of becoming an exorcist and helping demons as well as humans from eachother, Lorenzo knew who his father really was but he didn't know anything about him all he knew was that he is the demon king of light, which was ironic considering that Lorenzo shared his white flames and was put in his sword so he could look human in public but Lorenzo had to make sure to keep his tail hidden in his pants at all times. He got the key to the cram school after the director made the announcement to all the pages that would be training to be exorcists Lorenzo still had the speech ringing in his head...

Today you all have been accepted into silver cross academy! now all of you have done tried your hardest to get to this prestigious school and it has paid off here at silver cross academy you will be trained to be exorcists, you will learn the skills to kill the malicious demons that try to infect this world and learn how to give the lost demons and ghost of this world peace so that they may rest. Now all you have to ask yourselves one question while you are in cram school- what kind of exorcist will I be?!
what kind of exorcist will Lorenzo be, it was certainly a question he wanted to proudly say to protect but when his flames are loose it seemed to be the last thing on his mind when he went on his rampage. Lorenzo walked through the classrooms until he found the one he was supposed to be room 13b he walked in the classroom and what a shock Lorenzo was the first one their, Lorenzo always did have the tendency to show up early before it was time but Lorenzo never called it a flaw since it was always better to be early then late to class, so he walked over to a desk up in the front so he could immediately get to work but also so he could leave the second the bell rang. Lorenzo always had a policy with his schools 'be the first one in and the first one out' is what Lorenzo always said to himself since he rather work early so he could leave early. so now Lorenzo was playing the waiting game as he sat in the front desk waiting for his classmates and the teacher to show up

Kimiko walked down the hall, her shoes softly 'taptap'ing on the floor...the fact there was little noise outside of that made her a bit nervous. After a little bit of walking she found the room she was suppose to be in. She used the key she'd been given and opened the door...peeking in she saw another student. She smiled brightly and walked in. "Hi!" she said excited to meet another student. She meandered in a few steps and looked around the classroom, "Are we early?" she said a little concerned, but still excited none the less. She walked over to the only other person in the room and sat down at the desk next to his putting her small bag down next to her. She smelled softly of vanilla, as she reached down and pulled a notebook and a pen from her bag, getting it ready. "I love being early. You don't have to rush you know?" She said with a smile to the serious student next to her. She offered her hand, "I'm Kimiko. Its a pleasure to meet you!"

Cassandra had listened to the speech, had taken it to heart, and had gone to the classroom for the first lesson. She had slipped inside, and chosen a desk right at the back, in a corner. Evidently she couldn't be seen there, as first one student, and then another came in and sat down at the front. Cassandra studied them both, the girl seemed to be too happy and excited for her own good, and the boy...the boy wore a glove on his right hand. Cassandra always noticed things like that, because she wore one on her left. She didn't get a closer look, and didn't want to draw any attention to herself, but she couldn't see how she could get away with that throughout the whole lesson.

So she sighed, picked up her backpack, and moved to join the two up the front, she sat down on too of the desk, on the other side of the boy, setting her backpack on her chair. "Either I'm good at blending into the background, or you two just aren't very observant. I'm Cassandra, but I'm happy being called Cassie" Cassandra's voice was at least welcoming, but there was a sadness to it, that never seemed to go away. She saw the girl, Kimiko, had her hand out in an offer of a hand shake, so Cassandra shrugged, and shook her hand.

Lorenzo turned to see the girl walking in if anything she seemed overly happy or must be having a ready good day. He could tell their was someone else in the room or at least he felt someone was watching him but he wasn't sure as he turned to the happy girl who was apparently named kimiko and he hesitated a moment before shaking her hand "Lorenzo Ortega" he said to get offering his name to her but not much else since he didn't want to bother her then he turned to the other girl that their with them. he thought their was another person their and apparently her name was Cassade seeing she tried to be a little happy with a joke, he noticed she wore a glove on her left hand which made him curious but he wouldn't pursue it then he shook her hand after she shook kimikos "Lorenzo Ortega" he told her glad they weren't trying to force him to talk at least for the moment

Kiddo walked into the class ready to start his first day. He was happy, like normal. Kiddo was wearing what he wore any other day, A leather jacket with a V-neck shirt under it and black jeans with boots. He noticed three kids were already in the room Man why would you want to wear those itchy, crummy uniforms? He asked himself when seeing that the other kids were wearing the uniforms given to them by the school.

When the other kids finally noticed Kiddo he gave a smile and a small wave as he made his was to the very back of the room. Kiddo sat the sword that was strapped to his back on the chair. He made his way to the three sitting kids who had completely forgotten about him once he left their line of sight. He stood at the desk of a boy who had semi long black hair, He wore a glove on his right and and his sword on his back. He looked serious and it kinda gave Kiddo an uneasy feeling but he pushed that away. "Hey, I'm Kiddo Hanto. Please to meet you all." Kiddo spoke smoothly and smiled. One of the other girls smiled back as the other girl didn't seem to care all that much Kiddo thought.

Cassandra studied Lorenzo for a few moments. There was just something about him that seemed familiar about him, and she wondered why. She was frowning slightly as she examined him, probably making her seem a bit creepy, but Cassandra was beyond noticing that about herself. Her left hand twitched, and she almost took her glove off.

It was the eyes, Cassandra thought musingly, pretty much the same shape and colour as hers. And that was just a little freaky. She realized that she was staring, and shook her head as if clearing it like an etcher sketch, and she blushed, glancing away, looking up as someone else spoke. Kiddo? She thought, bemused. "Cassandra" she replied, softly, looking I the door as a tall woman with white hair and kind eyes walked in the room,

"I am Oliva Solahart, your teacher here" Oliva said, watching the students, as one shifted to sit at her chair rather then her desk, before continuing "now, you will all have different attributes and different skills" her tone was brisk, clear and loud, and it was clear that dispute her young appearance, Oliva was used to being followed.

"Any questions?"

Angelo felt eyes in him then he saw Cassandra started to stare at him normally he would ask her to stop staring but he decided not to, he felt obligated to let her get a look at him. As strange as that sounds what was the strangest was when he felt a twitch in his right hand when sure looked at him and he looked up to see the boy that was happily named kiddo and nodded saying "Lorenzo" as he looked up to see the teacher walk in she's looked no older then us but had a sort if subtle grace in her movements. When she asked if we had any questions Angelo decided to take the injustice and raise his hand before asking "what meister are you"

Looking up as the teacher walked in Kimiko blinked...then looked at her papers in her bag. She immediately shot up, "I'm in the wrong class!! I'm so sorry!!!" She immediately grabbed her bag and rushed out the door, wizing past the other students and running down the hall, completely embarrassed and ashamed.

A girl burst through what he thought was his classroom door when he was only a few steps away. Woah.... is the teacher that bad?.. or maybe she had an emergency. Oh well. The thoughts going through his head were a mix of nervousness and excitement. Sure he didn't know anyone and it was a new school, but on the other hand he loved new experiences. He wanted to see as much of the world as possible and this opportunity could probably help that goal.

Turning the corner into his classroom and walking in, he noticed a few students chatting and making small talk. So these are my classmates. Lotta swords. Was that a requirement... oh god please don't tell me it is. Sitting down he finally took a glance towards his would be professor. I might like this class just for that reason. Ren thought while staring at the white haired goddess standing at the front of the room. Wow. was the only thought that came to mind.

Oliva laughed, and said, "My meister is Aria. Everyone always wants to know that first up" She said cheerfully, "For those of you that don't know what an Aria is, it means that I can basically recite a demon's death, killing them instantaneously because of this" Oliva decided to ignore the student rushing out the classroom, and the one that entered late,and continued on, "There are five different Meisters, , Which are essentially diifferent fighting styles adopte by an exorcist. You will find which style suits you best, in the long run. There is the Knight Classification, which is the sword-Fight, the Dragoon Classification, which is the arms fighter-they mainly use guns to fight, the Tamer which summons demons to fight, the Aria-Which I have already told you about, and the Doctor, who uses medical knowledge to treat most wounds inflicted in fight, or in training. You can take on multiple roles, such as being a Knight and a Dragoon, so don't feel as if you have to settle for one classification"

She looked over the students, brushing back her long white hair, her gaze landing on the student staring at her as if she was something more then she was, and she chuckled, "There's always one" She said, giving an exasperated sigh, and sitting down on the desk that was hers.

"do any of you have an idea what your chosen Miester would be?" She asked.

Lorenzo raised his hand to be the first one to answer as he stood up to the class to say "dragoon and knight classifications. I hope to use a magnum and my sword in close combat" Lorenzo explained as he sat down in his seat. In all honesty he has no choice to be a knight since his sword held his white flames but he wanted to be dragoon so he could be a fury of attacks in battle knowing when his sword was drawn he would be in a fury anyways so why fight being that

Kiddo sat at his desk watching as the other kids talk and talk. He couldn't keep up. Kiddo watched as a girl rushed out of the class room saying she was in the wrong class. Man, she must be embarrassed. I feel sorry for her. Kiddo thought to him self as the kids stopped talking for a minute to watch the girl run out of the room and down the hall. But, as soon as that minute he noticed the teacher was in the class room. He thought about asking her a question but decided against it. He just watched as Lorenzo asked her a question. Kiddo didn't hear her answer because of how far back he was sitting in the room. The teacher said a couple more things then Lorenzo talked a little more to her about classes or something, Kiddo still couldn't hear them very well. Maybe I should have sat closer to the front of the room. But, any way. I'll just try my best to hear what she's saying. Thought Kiddo as the teacher began the class.

"I'll be taking up the role of dragoon, if that doesn't happen to be a problem. Maybe you could teach me how to be an Aria meister as well." Ren said after being called on by the professor. He hadn't thought of doing two things at once before. It makes a lot more sense to be well versed in multiple aspects, especially when fighting in a team. Ren couldn't see a downside. He could improve his chances at surviving and increase his deadliness in battle. And I get to study under the hottie. A smirk grew on his face at that thought. This might just be the best option for me

Oliva regared a piece of paper as the students began to talk, noting the first one to speak was Lorenzo, "Dragoon and Knight is a good combination, covering all the bases of those wishing to be a fighter, but I imagine you had no choice but to become a knight, with that sword you are carrying around. I wonder if that was what you wanted to be though" She shrugged, moving on to the second student to speak up. noting the name of said student was Ren. "being a dragoon is a good choice, if that's what you wish. You seem to have some sort of inner joke" She said, in reference to his smirk. She rose from her desk, approaching Ren, deliberately walking slowly.

"Do you care to share with the rest of the class, Ren? I bet it has something to do with...lusting after something you can't have, now, doesn't it?" She gave him a knowing smile, before looking about the classroom, at the two students that hadn't said anything yet.

It appeared the one at the back, Kiddo, in reference again to her chart, couldn't hear, even though they seemed to try desperately to make it seem like they could hear.

"Excuse me, Kiddo?" She said loudly, "You might want to come closer, you seem lonely back there by yourself" Her tone implied it wasn't a suggestion, but rather a request.

She turned to Cassandra.

---

Cassandra listened as Lorenzo and Ren said what they wanted to be. She stared at her desk, appearing thoughtful, even as she glanced towards the blade she had taken from her house, when everything seemed to turn upside down.

She shivered, and looked up as Oliva turned to gaze at her. Cassandra returned her gaze, deliberately taking time to speak.

"Since I took up the blade of the man I thought was my father, my path seems to be that of a Knight. And yet, I don't think I should just be a Knight because that seems to be the way things are going for me. I want to be a Knight, for the simple fact that I want to protect. I also want to be a Doctor. So I can heal, and save lives" She spoke softly, her gaze never once leaving the Professors.

"I know what I am, and I know what I want to be. I'm not going to let my path be chosen for me. I'll choose it for myself. I will become an Exorcist" and then Cassandra fell silent, and looked down.

There was silence as Oliva seemed to digest this information, before looking over the rest of the class. "She is right. You have the right to choose"

"Okay ma'am." Kiddo quickly picked up his things and moved closer to the front of the room. He was glad the teacher had noticed. He didn't point it out because he didn't want to be a burden to the class. Kiddo could hear much better now. The teacher was talking to a girl up front now, Cassandra Kiddo believed her name was. He listen to what she wanted to be, an exorcist. Just a simple exorcist. Does that mean she hasn't decided yet? Kiddo wondered.

After a couple more people the teacher finally turned to him asking what he wanted to be. "Just a simple knight ma'am. Ever since I got this sword about a year ago it hasn't had a purpose, so I want to give it one. And, I want that purpose to be helping people. Helping people is what I have done my whole life and will continue to do." Kiddo spoke with confidence, he spoke with out messing up or slurring his words together. That was mainly because it was truth and you can't mess up the truth. Also Kiddo knew if he did mess up nobody would believe him.

Kiddo realized he was standing up gripping the edges of his desk. Is knuckles were white. He had practically yelled everything he said. Kiddo sat back down. The teacher smiled and moved on asking other kids.

Lorenzo looked at the teacher looking a little surprised to hear her say that, saying that Lorenzo didn't have a choice. He wondered if she knew what he was or not. the truth was Lorenzo did want to be a fighter but not in the way that he fights when his sword is drawn and his flames appear. he wants to fight with skill not with happiness that borders on phyco love for killing. she was right about Lorenzo having no choice in being a knight since he couldn't let anyone but him use the sword but being a dragoon was his choice and nobody would take that from him. as he thought of all this he noticed the teacher then turned to Cassandra to ask what she wanted to be and he understood what she meant wanting to use her sword to protect people and he was a little glad that she would be a doctor considering they would need one if they were out in the field and help the others in the team while Lorenzo would hold off the demons. then she said something that struck home for Lorenzo I know what I am, and I know what I want to be. I'm not going to let my path be chosen for me. I'll choose it for myself. I will become an Exorcist she wants to be an exorcist because its the path she wants to take and with what the teacher said about everyone always having a choice it just made Lorenzo think about what he should do about his flames and how he should try and train harder to control himself when he draws his sword. he then looked to the guy that moved up. his name was apparently kiddo and he had the dream to protect people and Lorenzo thought it was a noble goal but it would only go so far until it was tested, that's what Lorenzo feared the most. when the time came who would he be, Lorenzo? or the son of a demon king?

Oliva pondered the students answers, and nodded to herself, satisfied. She wasn't too sure that any of them would become what they wanted to be, Exorcists, but they were on their way.

Oliva looked over the small group of students, deciding that they should move on, "alright then, now I know a bit about you all, with what you desire your Meister's to be, I just need to know if you have all received a Temptaint, or Mashoou. I assume since you all desire to become an exorcist, then you all need to be able to see demons, which is what the temptaint does. If you haven't undergone the experience to have the Temptaint ability, then I need to know, otherwise, you cannot continue your training under you do"

She stopped, clearly waiting for their replies.

Being called out by the professor sent a bright red flushing all the way through his face. How did she know?! It can't be possible. Does she have a super power for reading minds? That sent him in a fluster, and the next question she asked sent him into an even greater one. A what?! What the hell is a temptaint? Not wanting to interrupt the class, but more so not wanting to look stupid in front of the professor, he really didn't want to raise his hand. I'll have to though I suppose, its probably important. Shit. Sucking up his pride he raised his hand and said,"I don't have one. I don't even know what that is."

Have it" Lorenzo said the fact that he was part demon he didn't need to gain a temp taint since he could already see the coltars flying around him absent minded flicking one away from his face thinking that they were the flies of the demon world and were just annoying. Lorenzo always saw demons but it wasn't always considered a blessing since he would see what normal people couldn't and be seen talking to nothing

Cassandra nodded, saying, "I have it too" She was thankful for that, although why she should be thankful for being half demon, and the daughter of a demon king, she didn't know. Yet she didn't find it strange.

Her life had changed. She had merely adapted.

She also suspected that the professor already knew what her parentage was, and this would confirm it. Cassandra what the Professor, but she did glance at Lorenzo with a frown, wondering how he had the temptaint too. It could be something simple like he had already faced a demon, so she shrugged, looking back to the professor, absent mindedly twirling her pen in her gloved left hand.

---

"Well, Ren if you had been listening a Temptaint allows you to see demons. After all, how are you meant to fight demons if you can't see them?" Oliva said, glancing over to Ren, deliberately giving him a knowing smile. Oliva liked to tease. She turned to the other students, "Very good then, two of you at least won't have to undergo meeting a demon in order to gain the sight" she said to Cassandra and Lorenzo, not asking for any details.
