Young Teito: Wait, Father! Where are we going?
Kreuz: We will be meeting up with someone very important today.
Young Teito: Someone important?
Teito: (For some reason, I was a child of the church in my dream. Weird. I was somewhere I’ve never been with someone I’ve never seen, yet it all felt sort of nostalgic…)
[Jingles]

Student: Yo, Shuri! I heard the most elite groups of the military will come to our graduation exam tomorrow!
Shuri: Really?
Student: Aren’t they just coming to scout you, Shuri?
Shuri: [Giggles] Aww, stop it.
[Footsteps]
Shuri: Hey, look. It’s chairman Miroku’s favorite. Good morning, young master Teito Klein! Hah, there he is wearing that sour look as always. He never even greets us!
Student: How can a tiny little shrimp like him keep up with our training anyway?!
Shuri: Hey now, don’t piss him off! He’ll get the chairman to expel you!
Student: Did you guys know he used to be a slave?
Shuri: Woah, really?!
Student: Ssh, he’ll hear us!
[All laugh]
Teito: (You assholes… I can hear every single thing you’re saying.)
Mikage: [Runs up to Teito] Morning, famous young master!
Teito: Shut your trap, Mikage!
Mikage: Woah! Dang, you could tell it was me?
Teito: Duh, we’ve been friends for a year.
Mikage: Yo, let’s eat lunch together!
Teito: Find someone else. They’ll make fun of you too if you’re with me.
Mikage: I’m so sick of hearing you say that.
[Something flies by]
Mikage: Oh! [Runs to the window] Woah, it’s so cool!
Teito: Hoburg fortress?
Mikage: We’ll get to join ‘em over there if we pass tomorrow’s exam! As students of the 315th class of the Barsburg Empire’s imperial military academy, we’ve gotta make sure we pass! I’m gonna fight for the empire and protect my family.

[People talking]
Mikage: Which team are you in, Teito?
Teito: A.
Mikage: Same here! (Whispering) I heard Shuri’s in Team A too.
Teito: Hmm.
Instructor: Attention. Of the 100 students here, only 20 will get to become Begleiters. Are you all prepared?
Students: Yes.
Instructor: Then let us start. Team A, come over here.
[Siren goes off]
Announcer: Team A, enter the arena!
[Doors open]
Mikage: What do you think they’re gonna make us do in groups of ten?
Teito: Dunno.
[Doors close]
[Prisoner walks up to the students]
Instructor: Your graduation exam is to kill this prisoner. You will fail if you are unable to defeat him or if you abandon your comrades.
Student: H-hey, what the hell? He’s like a monster!
Student: Calm down, dude. It’s one of those hologram things we’ve used for training. Watch! [throws rubber band at the prisoner]
Prisoner: Ooh! We’ve got ourselves some lively brats this year! What fun I’ll have!
Student: He’s real!
Announcer: Let the exam begin!
Student: W-what do we do, Shuri?
Shuri: We’ve just gotta do what we always do! I won’t lose to Teito Klei--
[A student is hit by the prisoner]
Shuri: Huh?
Prisoner: Don’t you dare look away!
[Students scream]
Teito: This guy’s-... [Attacks the prisoner with his Zaiphon]
Prisoner: Zaiphon, huh?
Teito: (Zaiphon is the power we elite students use to fight. We Zaiphon users transform the life energy that God gifted us into different forms, mainly using our hands. These abilities vary from person to person, but they’re usually innate.)
Prisoner: Interesting! Well, whenever I defeat one of you brats, my sentence gets shorter! Yeahhh!

Soldier: Attention!
Soldier: Welcome, chief Ayanami.
Ayanami: How are the cadets this year? Do any of them look even a little promising?
Prisoner: (Muffled) Gahh!
Hyuuga: Dang! Looks difficult! Oh, look, Konatsu! That prisoner looks super ferocious! Hahaha!
Konatsu: Major, even though most students drop out at this point, they’re all taking it seriously. Don’t laugh at them.
Soldier: They’re quite high-level this year. I hope seeing them has raised your expectations. I’m sure you’ll find someone of use right away.
Kuroyuri: No matter how great their training is, only a few of them can actually use these skills in battle.
Katsuragi: It’s exactly as the Lieutenant Colonel says. We need someone battle-ready.
Soldier: I-if you say so, Colonel Katsuragi…
Hyuuga: I wonder how many of those we’ve got in this bunch.

Shuri: [Running] He’s gonna kill me!
Prisoner: [Growls]
Shuri: Eek!
Teito: Look out! [Pushes Shuri] [Gets grabbed]
Prisoner: Got you!
Mikage: Teito!
Teito: …Ugh, you-!
[Teito surrounds the prisoner’s neck with Zaiphon]
Teito: Surrender.
Instructor: The exam is still not over. I’m quite certain I told you to kill him.
Teito: He’s not my enemy. I don’t need to-
[The prisoner gets killed]
Ayanami: You’re too soft.
Announcer: T-the exam is over!
Teito: Who the hell is that?
---
Teito: I heard 19 people passed today, us included.
Mikage: I’m still shaking. I never could’ve guessed you’d save Shuri.
Teito: I-I didn’t mean to! I just sort of… did it without thinking.
Mikage: Come on, bestie. I’m saying I’m proud of you.
Teito: …Mikage, you know I used to be a slave, right? A combat slave at that. I’ve been the military’s property ever since I can remember. So I’ve no clue what it’s like to have a loving family. But maybe getting to call you my best friend is, I don’t know, similar to- Huh?
Mikage: You dummy. Who told you you could make me cry?!
Teito: W-why are you crying?
Mikage: You just said something so huge, how the hell else am I supposed to react? But that’s the first time you’ve told me something like that, so I’m super happy. Okay! Let’s make a best-friend promise! If you ever get in trouble on the battlefield, I won’t even think of leaving you behind. I swear on God’s name that we’ll die together!
Teito: …Yeah!

[Jingles]
Krom: Forgive me, Teito. I wish I could stay by your side.
Teito: (It’s that dream again.)
[Jingles]
Krom: One day, you’ll finally learn what your true mission is.
Teito: (Why’re you telling me all that? Who even are you?)
Krom: And when you do, you will-
Young Teito: Wait! [Falls]
Teito: (What is this? It’s red… it’s red…)

[Bell rings]
Teito: [Running] Crap! Forgot to turn my report in!
Officer: Teito Klein is immensely powerful, to nobody’s surprise.
Teito: (Who’s talking about me?)
Officer: He’s on route to becoming a fine candidate for the Eye of Michael.
Officer: I thought that thing disappeared during the Raggs War.
Teito: (What are they talking about?)
Ayanami: Raphael is reacting. The Eye is definitely out there. But we couldn’t find it anywhere, not even after searching the bodies of every member of the Raggs family. We may have glanced over some of their relatives. The king used to wear the Eye on this necklace, so by all means…
[Jingles]
Teito: (My head! What is-)
Krom: (I promise we’ll meet again.)
Soldier: (We’ve captured the king of Raggs!)
Teito: (That’s-)
[Krom gets stabbed]
Teito: (That’s my dad. And the person standing by my dad was…)
Officer: Is something wrong, Chief Ayanami?
Teito: Agh… Ah… [Charges Zaiphon]
Ayanami: Looks like a rat has snuck in.
Teito: Aghhh! [Gets tackled by Hyuuga] Ugh!
Hyuuga: Nuh-uh-uh! Lay a finger on Aya and you’ll die.
Teito: Agh! Agh!
Ayanami: Why did you try to attack me?
Teito: Agh!
Ayanami: This kid is the slave from Raggs, isn’t he? Lock him up until I return. Make him spit out everything he knows.
Teito: Urgh!
---
Mikage: [Running] What the hell does Teito think he’s doing, turning on Ayanami of all people? Oh, oops…
Guard: I guess that’s all. Time to patrol the other side.
Mikage: Phew. Okay. [Opens door] I think he’s still detained here. What was that? [Starts running] Teito! What are-
Teito: Mikage?
Mikage: Did you defeat that guard?
Teito: Sorry. I… can’t stay here anymore. Thank you for every-
[Mikage grabs Teito’s hand]
Teito: Mikage?!
Mikage: We’ve gotta run!
Teito: Let me go! I don’t want to drag you into this!
Mikage: Do you want to die, you idiot? Turning on Ayanami is a death sentence! You’ve got to run away to stay alive! Don’t think about anything else!
Teito: [Sobs] Mikage…
Guard: The candidate has escaped!
Mikage: I've snatched a hawkzile, it's right ahead. Hurry up!
Soldier: You two! Halt!
Teito: Don’t move! If you move, I’ll kill this hostage!
Mikage: Teito…
Soldier: Shit.
Teito: Stand back! (Whispering) I can’t let you become a criminal too. I have to leave on my own. Mikage, we’ll always be… the bestest of friends, right?
Mikage: Of course. Go, Teito.
[Teito beats the soldiers and flies off on the Hawkzile]
Ayanami: What is all that commotion?
[Teito flies by]
Ayanami: Teito Klein. [Attacks Teito with Zaiphon]
Teito: Agh!
Ayanami: (He evaded my blow with a barrier… But don’t think you can get away that easily, Teito Klein.)
this is why you're the absolute goat
