“What the hell kind of display was that? I thought you wanted to display the strength of a Corvus, not make them the laughing stock of Reim! I told you once, and I’ll tell you twice, you should have just fought alongside that damned bear from the get-go. Hell, why did YOU even let him get into that arena without bringing you along?” Apollo’s personal trainer was furious, and had been lecturing both him and his lifelong companion ever since the fight had ended.
“Tch, gimme a break. I wanted my first fight to be fair and not some snooze fest. We all know that if I had brought Vulcan along, the fight would have been over in literally two seconds.” Vulcan couldn’t help but feel ashamed, as he hid himself behind Apollo. The bear was typically a rambunctious one, but even he knew his place in the presence of Apollo’s master.
“Literally two seconds? No, it would have been over in figuratively two seconds. I thought I had taught you better, Apollo..” the Fanalis said, wiping the sweat off of his frustrated brow. After a brief moment of silence between the two, the man before Apollo had finally cooled himself off.
“Anyways, let me see those wounds of yours. It would be for the best if you didn’t pass out on me from bloodloss.” The chiseled man would say, stretching his arm out towards Apollo’s wounded shoulder. He had already prepared the antibiotics, so all that was left was to stitch it. While the wound wasn’t immediately life-threatening, it was still dangerous if left unchecked. Especially after how much blood Apollo had lost already.
Later that day, Apollo would find himself back out on the streets of Reim. He had taken considerable damage during his fight with Rufi, so he had a bit of time to kill before his next battle started. His shoulder still hurt like hell from being stabbed, but the medicine his master had given him helped numb the pain some.
“Damn, I hate to admit that he was right, but he’s most likely right.” Apollo would say, clenching his teeth out of irritation. His companion, Vulcan, would simply look up at him with the same pissy stare he had been giving him all day. As if to say, T
old you so. The duo butted heads quite a bit, but it was usually out of affection.
Upon hearing an unknown voice, Apollo’s senses would begin to heighten. He wasn’t entirely sure, but it sounded like it came over from the next block. Without even getting much time to react, the Fanalis would soon come face-to-face with three unknown people. It would start off with a sudden snap against the pavement, and a strange smoke leaking out from the alleyway. Then, a sickly man would make his way through the cloud of smoke, vomiting. only to be caught in his tracks by a strange woman with teal hair. She simply paced her way towards him, flicked her scarf around his neck, and thenslammed his face against the hard ground.
Following her, out came a young looking lad. She would immediately turn towards the boy after the man was dealt with. He couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but he wasn’t just going to sit there and watch.
“Hey, the hell was that? I heard some chick yelling about her purse, so was this the culprit?” Apollo spouted out, not showing any form of manners. Despite him coming off rude, this was simply Apollo’s personality. He wasn’t the kind of guy to shyly talk to someone he didn’t know, nor did he care about whether they were stronger than him or not. He was a very cocky young man, similar to his sister.
