Snippet #1103942

Lucian was in a line up and looked like he had a broom duck taped on to his back. The intructor was yelling at them barking orders like "You better show me respect kid." or "Today you brats are going to practice your swordsmanship." Lucian just stared at the guy. He didn't like the way this guy talked. He was new of course but the old instructor even though he to had yelled at them he had some sort of kindness in his voice. Unlike this dude who showed no hint of positive emotions. When the instructor finally finished his orders he let them go. Lucian was about to take a step when. "Kid!" he heard the instructor yell. Lucian walked up to the instructor with a serious face on. "Yes sir?" he asked. "Today it's your turn to practice defending the halls of the castle. You and an experienced knight will walk the halls making sure if anybody has any trouble." he said. Lucian nodded. The instructor pointed to his left and a knight who he knew as Tanner came walking by. "Hes all yours." the instructor said. With that he left to go watch the other trainees.

"Instructor Zoro is not all bad you know." Tanner said as they walked the halls of the castle. He greeted each person as if they were family and asked if they found anything wrong.
"Yeah and only if that was true."Lucian said in a bitter tone. He took mental notes on what to do and checked his surroundings just in case they could be in an important use someday.
"The guy doesn't even seem he wants to be here." Lucian said.
"Yeah true but he is. When he was hired he told us his past and how his instructor was too soft and they lost half their men during a war. " Tanner said. He continued telling Lucian about the instructor. Which he was paying no attention to. He heard people talking around the corner. Which seemed weird because so far everybody seemed to talk to themselves. He couldn't help but to leave Tanner talking to himself and find out what they were talking about. He saw two girls talking to each other one of course he knew as the princess. The other he didn't know so much. He quickly hid behind the closet curtain he could find so he could eavesdrop.
