Alright before you read this fanfic, this is the first chapter of a series (maybe). The title of the series title hasn't been made yet.
Anyway this chapter is basically setting the background of one of the main characters, named dre yu.
............................................................................................
Dre yu's eyes opened to see the same old room that had been living in since he could remember. He heard the usual banging of the drums that sounded through the halls to wake people up. After dressing himself and such, he joined the other kids for breakfast. Only today there weren't any kids down, nor food.
guard said, "Hey, what are you doing here, all kids are suppose to be in training right now."
Dre turned around and saw a man he had not seen before.
Dre said, "But I need to eat."
guard said, "to bad, come on lets go."
The guard armed dre's arm and to dragged him away from the lunch room. The guard brought him to the practice area of the camp. The instructor saw dre walking in late.
instructor said, "listen child, I don't know who you think are but if you are late again, I'll make you come up in front of the class and do push ups while everyone else is practicing their shot, understand."
Dre said, "yes."
instructor said, "Yes, what?"
Dre yawned, "yes sir."
The instructor said, "Listen class, we will now have a little contest, if you win then I will personally see to it that you get to skip the laps we do for a whole week. Now as you all know, we have been practicing archery for a since the first day you started to train here. Now I know I haven't seen all of you personally and that all of you are only 9 or 10, but i have high exceptions for you all. Since some of you have been here almost your whole life. Now, first up..."
Dre stopped listening to her, and sat down. He heard his stomach roaring. A kid his age sat next to him and hand him a bag of fire flacks.
Dre said, "Thanks."
Kid said, "I had my fill anyway."
Dre looked at the kid, he wasn't dressed in the clothes as everyone else, he wore clothes suited for a prince.
kid said, "Whats your name?"
Dre said, "Dre."
kid said, "So what you guys doing here anyway."
Dre said, "archery, its pretty dumb."
The kid saw somebody wave for him to come.
Kid said, "Well I have to leave, I would say see you around but I am only visiting here you see."
Dre said, "Wait, whats your name though."
The kid smiled, "wray."
Wray left without saying another word. Dre yu liked the guy, usually, the wealthy kids like him were are always full of themselves.
The instructor yelled at dre to come over and do his turned. Dre walked over and ready himself.
The instructor said, "When I say fire, do so."
Dre took aim carefully, not having to run laps also meant not to get up as early.
The instructor said, "Fire!"
Dre let go of the string and let the arrow fly. The arrow hit the very center of the target. Dre sighed, he found this to be boring. The instructor look shocked when the arrow hit dead on the target. Dre prepared to fire again.
The instructor said, "Fire!"
Dre fired the arrow and sent flying once again. And just as before, the arrow landed in the center merely inches away above the first one arrow. Again Dre prepared to shoot his last arrow and fired without waiting for the instructor to do tell him this time. The arrow landed an inch below the first arrow he shot.
The instructor said, "And the winner is...whats your name again?"
Dre said, "Dre yu."
The instructor said, "The winner is Dre yu."
The instructor dismissed the class but kept Dre to talk to him privately.
The instructor, "Anyway dre, you just past a test in order to get to train seriously with possible yu yang archers. You will start training with the adults in a week, so you won't have to join us this week."
Dre said, "What! I don't want to. They train like all the time."
The instructor said, "Its not a choice, you have raw talent, but you lack drive to take you anywhere."
Dre said, "Maybe that is because I don't like fighting and have no use for it."
The instructor said, "You I heard rumors that you basically saw your parents die when you were young. Maybe if you were stronger, than they would have been safe."
Dre angrily said, "I couldn't even crawl back then, I hardly even remember back than anyway."
Because Dre didn't want the life of a solider, he stormed off to his room. He went to sleep right away. Soon he found him dreaming, about the day his parents died. He was in a corner watching his dad fight with bandits. Fire started to take over the house. He then saw his mother on half on fire reaching for his hand.
Dre awoke, he smelt something burning. He open his eyes and found his blanket to be on fire. He threw the blanket on the floor before it reach him, and let burn out. He wondered why the fire did not burn him even though he slept in it. He eventually fell back to sleep.
Dre awoke not in his room, but in a field, tied to a tree with nobody and no clue who did this to him. He tried to get out, but the ropes were no loose enough to breath. After nearly a full day, he saw a familiar face.
Dre yelled, "Wray!"
Wray turned and saw Dre and came running.
Wray asked, "So, how did end up like this."
Dre answered, "I don't know, they did to me while I was sleeping."
Wray took out a bag of water.
Wray asked, "Want some?"
Dre responded, "Ah...thank you."
Dre started to gulped the water down. While he was drinking, the ropes snapped or broke, Dre didn't see how it was done. He fell and landed face first.
Dre said, "Good job."
Wray said, "Shut up, anyway I did you a favor, so I need one."
Dre stood up.
Dre asked, "Whats that?"
Wray said, "I need a place to sleep for a while, but nobody can know where I am. Is it okay if a share a room with you for a while."
Dre said, "Sure, but you sleeping on the floor, i don't have a spare bed."
Wray said, "Lets go right now, okay?"
Dre said, "Okay, but I need to eat before we get going."
Dre and wray went his room and slept. The rest of the week past by pretty fast. Dre made his way to the adults training. Which was on a whole new level of intense. Dre collapsed from exhaustion half way through the day, and was only allowed a ten minute break, then forced to make through the day. Dre gradually improved but did not notice much difference.
After a month, wray up and left without saying anything to him. Three years past, and Dre was now 13 years old, after training so long, the instructors were curious about how much he improved. Dre managed to do one of the things that made the yu yang archers so famous, he split the first arrow with the second and the second with the third. After many nights of thinking what he was doing with his life, he decide that he would take a break from this place. The person in charge gave him permission to take two year long vacation, and Dre planed on taken full advantage of it.
