Monarchs Legacy

Chapter 8: The First Week: the Roommates



"This is gonna be fun" Blaze says smugly a mischievous smirk briefly appearing on his face for just a moment before he leaps off his 'perch' and transforming into a Fenrir quickly making his decent down the mountain ranger back to the Academy.

...…

As Blaze makes his way down the mountainside 2 boys are currently in the dorm room listening to music and gaming.

"Hey Tai, did Uncle say when the V-pods will arrive?" A blond boy asks a silver haired boy. "Sometime Friday so we'll be able to play after class, definitely be a good way to unwind from our first week of classes though we gonna have to make up for lost time though, Ars." the silver haired boy replies.

"So wonder who our roomie is" the blond boy says. the

An hour later Blaze walks in and spots the 2 boys carefully sizing them up he walks over to the blond boy and smiles, "I remember you from the exam, I'm Blaze" he hold his hand out.

"Arlan, Arlan Lumine" the blond boy replies grabbing Blaze's hand shaking it "and this is my cousin Tai"

The silver haired boy walks over "Taiga Lumine von Lutz, nice to meet you" he says while sizing up Blaze "you were pretty entertaining during the exam".

Blaze just nods and walks over to empty bed as he takes his shirt off revealing a toned physique and plops down on the bed "Lumine…. You're not how I'd imagine members of that family to be like… no offense."

Taiga shrugs "None taken, I can't speak for this lame-o but for me if it's not a video games or doesn't involve magic or swords then it's not worth my time".

Arlan rolls his eyes "Tai's a bit of a junkie" Taiga frowns at this comments "Hey I wouldn't go that…" "I would" Arlan says smugly, promptly cutting off Taiga's protest.

"Anyways Blaze, if you ever have a disagreement with his highness over here just tickle him and he'll concede" Taiga states with a smirk and Arlan just sticks his tongue out.

"Definitely related" Blaze snickers at the two boys picking on each other. "So what do the two of you do for fun?"

Arlan and Taiga look at each other and smirk "VR games duh!" Blaze looks at them with a confused expression "VR?"

Arlan and Taiga's mouths drop "you don't know what VRs are?"

Blaze shakes his head.

"You saw the virtual training grounds earlier right?" Arlan asks.

"Yeah?" Blaze answers

"They're like that but way cooler" Taiga says proudly.

"So what do you normally do for fun then" Arlan inquires.

A mischievous smile appears on Blaze's face "not too much I enjoy playing around with my magic but more than that there's nothing quite like pulling a good prank and causing a bit of chaos"

Taiga and Arlan just smirk at that statement especially considering Blaze's actions during the entrance exam specifically the way he tormented Francis.

"Something tells me our first year is gonna be nothing short of interesting" Arlan states.

"Definitely but we gotta get Blaze into VRs just imagine the shenanigans he'd get up to in there" Taiga states and Arlan smirks.

"Wait what do you mean?" Blaze questions.

Arlan and Taiga spend the next hour explaining things to Blaze, they explain the virtual world, the most recent game to be released as well as what Trolling and Grieving are.

"So basically my body would be in the game as an Avatar, and I could literally cause mayhem in the game" Blaze's eyes light up like a child on Christmas morning "I'm sold!"

Arlan and Taiga look at each other and burst out in laughter "he's so simple minded it's cute, we're definitely gonna get along."

...

After a couple of minutes of awkward quietness and of the cousin looking back and forth between each other and Blaze one of them finally speaks up.

"Hey so are Hunter and Sky really your brothers? Are they really twins?" Arlan asks.

"Yeah. Still hard to wrap your head around isn't it?" Blaze smirks

Arlan continues "So then how come…"

"So how come they don't live together you're asking." Blaze finishes Arlan's question "well one is a Dragonkin the other is a wolfkin so one was taken in by our mother's family the other our father's".

"Why though and why not you I mean if they took you in you'd be technically a noble" Arlan inquires.

"You don't know much about Dragons and Wolves do you? Except for rare circumstances Dragons and Wolves don't get along let alone live together which makes the circumstances of our births a rarity, unlike our ancestors the Fenrirs and the Drakons which actually did co-exist" Blaze explains "though I guess you could say the two clans that our parents belonged to are different they do coexist with each other as for why the 3 of us were separated as far as I know it was probably our parents' dying wish, and before you ask know I don't know why my situation is different then theirs but I like how I grew up so it's fine."

Arlan and Taiga just stare quietly not knowing how to respond so they just let it go since the three of them had to get ready for the welcome banquet knowing attendance was unfortunately mandatory.
