A day in their new lives

A day in their new lives

A day in their new lives

Both teens show up at the crack of dawn to the town square where they promised to meet. Luckily both of them woke up in time. The air is cold and damp, a thin fog lays over the fields. The moon can still be seen in the distance with the sun nowhere near rising. Both teens look at eachother with bags in their eyes.

“Where is this son of a bitch” Marcus whines

“I don't know, why are you asking me?” Gotz groans. “Hey did you do any ability training yesterday?” Gotz asks

“You know I can’t really train it very well, or at least the little training I do is constant”

“Ahh I get you, think fast!” Gotz exlamis throwing small rocks at his face. All of the rocks lose momentum as they approach Marcus and bounce off him like they were thrown by a toddler.

“Fuck you for that one dude” Marcus says

“You'll be fine”

An hour passes with the teens both horsing around, and getting into fake fights. Both are restless knowing what waits ahead. The inspector's carriage arrives with no guards in sight. The inspector begins to chuckle at the boys. He beckons them both to get on.

“You’re better at following orders than those other morons,” the Inspector chuckles.

“So what ever happened to those guys” Marcus asks.

“They were attacked by a vicious monster last night, only their armor remains” The inspector replies.

“Where are we going to be staying in the dome?” Gotz asks.

“You’ll just be staying in the public housing with everyone else” The inspector says. “Oh yeah that reminds me, the reason you are up so early is because you have your first days of school today”

“Sounds about right” Marcus says

“Yep, makes sense” Gotz says

“Man I worked hard on that reveal” the inspector mutters to himself. “Anyways, luckily since you are in the dome you’ll be going to the first floor education system, which means there are mostly lower ranking nobles there, so be prepared for some culture shocks here and there” the inspector explains. “Oh yes that reminds me, you will both be in the same classes.” the inspector says.

“Lets goooooo” Marcus says

“Fuck yeah” Gotz says

“Either way, we are approaching the dome, so be sure to not look so sullen and get dressed in these school uniforms before you go in.” The Inspector says. “Oh yes, also it is the beginning of the year, you got very lucky to have not met me next month, then you’d truly have no chance” says the inspector laughing.

The carriage arrives into the dome, it is a completely different scene from the outside world. There is technology everywhere, people in the marketplace buying and selling, children playing in the streets, green shrubs and ferns everywhere. There is a giant stone church at the very top.

“So this is the life huh” Gotz says

“You haven’t quite made it yet, remember you have to go up another floor after this” says the inspector

“Yeah but that's easy, I'm not worried about some noble pansies who haven’t even seen a dead body.” Marcus says

The carriage arrives at the school, it is made of white marble and is the size of a small town. After arriving at the gates the carriage stops and the inspector hands the kids their class schedule.

“See you next time this month,” the inspector says.

“Ready to blow these kids out of the water?” Gotz says

“Corny” Marcus replies

Both of them start to walk in the street, it is lined with red bricks and benches with recycling and trash containers. As they walk down the street many of the students begin to stare at them. While they did change uniforms it was clear that they weren’t from around there. For one they tower over everyone they walk by except for the occasional man almost Marcus’s height. Secondly they clearly haven't showered, well frankly ever. Maybe the occasional walk home in the rain but they were extremely dirty. It also seemed like other clicks had already formed before they got there.

“I don't know why I expected any different to be honest” Gotz says

“I would’ve thought they would have at least someone who looks a little bit like us” Marcus says. “Aren't all kids supposed to have an opportunity to get to the dome?”

“Clearly not dude” Gotz says

The teens continue to walk until they reach their classroom, the inside is just as magnificent as the outside.

“First class is abilities 101” Gotz says

“I got the paper too dipshit” Marcus says

Both of them sit at the back right of the classroom, they arrived first so no one else is there to claim it. They mess around until class time officially starts.

“Alright, I am going to be your professor for this semester.” the professor says. “Why doesn't everyone go around the room and introduce themselves, We’ll start with you in the front.”

A girl with red hair stands up, she is around 5’3 and xxxpounds. No other available info at this time horny mfs.

“Hi my name is Theodora, I am from 3rd street.” the girl says

All of the other introductions proceed as such, with the street number drawing more attention than the name, and more importantly, people with lower numbers were looked at in shock, while those with high numbers were almost discarded.

“Bro where tf are we from” Marcus whispers.

“Why do you think I’d know” Gotz responds.

Marcus's turn arrives and he stands up. While not nervous he does look around as if he is lost.

“My names Marcus and I'm from……. your mothers house.”

The class snickers and then it is Gotz 'turn. Unlike Marcus he genuinely has no fucking clue what to say or do.

“My name is Gotz, I’m from your dad's house?” Gotz says fumbling

The class snickers at Gotz but Gotz being Gotz doesn’t realize the difference and sits down proudly.

“Well now that's all out of the way, let’s get to what you have all been waiting for, ability assessments” The professor says. The professor pulls down a screen and hooks up a machine to a projector to display the results

“This is just gonna be a pissing contest for the elites to win dude, don’t worry about your score” Marcus says to Gotz.

Theodora goes up first, she places her hands on the professors and a small screen

“Gold” the professor says

The class all line up behind her, all of them praying for a higher rank, and those who are nicer dressed are clearly unbothered. Most of the class gets either Bronze or Silver, with one other blonde haired girl getting Gold as well. Gotz is up next, he places his hand on the professors.

The screen reveals his score.

“Gold” says the instructor

The class looks around shocked. Marcus starts jumping around and hyping Gotz up. Marcus was next in line, he places his hand on the professor and expects the worst considering he doesn't even know what his is. The screen slowly displays his rank, it looks like sliver with a more reflective tint.

“Platinum” the professor says

Marcus and Gotz pop off and start hyping each other up.

“THEY GOT NOTHING ON US!” Gotz yells

“WE ARE JUST BUILT DIFFERENT!” Marcus screams

The whole class looks in shock and envy, two unknown giants showing up at their school and getting better ranks than the higher floor residents? Unheard of.

“I know everyone is excited about their abilities rank, and some of you are disappointed, but remember with enough work even a Copper can beat a Gold.” The professor says reading of a script. “Since we are all so exited let’s end class a little early, this should give you one hour of free time, have fun. The professor continues.

All of the students begin to leave the class, but something strange happens, while everyone is crowding around the two rich girls, everyone seems to avoid Marcus and Gotz.

“Why are they avoiding us dude” Gotz says

“Imagine two absolute giants showing up to your school, having abilities to match their size, I’d be scared shitless too.” Marcus says

“Still not nice though,” Gotz mutters.
