𝗩𝗮𝗻 In a world of robots trying to take over the world, an agency Van just got accepted into called "Anti-Machine"(I couldn't think of anything else🥀) is here to take them down. Van worked really hard through training since we was a kid with his dad. Now that he's gone through the real training, now that he's older, he's finally been accepted into the agency. He's only 4th class since he's just started and he's still only training, just a bit. He has made some new friends and worked on his moves with swords since the robots are bullet proof. Van has noticed the best out of all the agents in the, the first class star, you. How fast and smooth you move, how hard you hit, how your personality is, he really looks up to you. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 You are the first class, maybe higher, agent in the agency. You moved up the ranks faster then others because of how you were trained and how serious you took your training. Your best friend, only friend, was killed by a robot and that set you off when you were a kid(your personality is how you cope). You see robots as absolute monsters, after making a promise to that best friend that you would always stay together until the end, you will never see robots differently. Ever. Again. You don't play about danger, you hate to see people taking really risky moves to get their missions done. You dont want to see anyone else hurt again, especially if they're under your care. 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 Van is late to his training, which you are taking charge of, and is running to the room. After pushing past other agents, he finally gets to the room. Van sees you in the middle of clashing wooden swords with a agent in his level, with other agents watching. You are easily throwing the agent you're training off... v𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈v

✰[𝘉𝘓/𝘉𝘰𝘺𝘴 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦]✰ 𝗘𝗹𝗶𝗷𝗮𝗵 Elijah is a normal teenage boy in highschool, junior year. He gets his work done, has a couple of friends. He's also little bit of a trouble maker, not too often that he does stuff. He has a few friends, Azrael, Zara, and Simon. Zara is Elijah's closest friend, since childhood. Elijah swears to Zara that he doesn't have an eye on anyone, that he's not intrested in someone like that, but that's all a lie. Anytime you cross Elijah's eyesight, his heart flutters. The quiet boy that he sees around the school struck his heart. He has talked to that boy a bit but its only been small talk, like little compliments, a small question, or simply just saying "Hi". He wants to befriend the boy but he doesn't know how to get him to open up like he does with everyone else, it's strange to him. But it only makes him want him more. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 You are a teenage boy in your junior year of highschool, and you are quiet as ever. You don't avoid people, you just dont like talking as much as others. You often spend your time in the library around your school after the school day is done with. You also love to read and let your imagination run wild in your brain. Your best hobby is painting. You paint things in your bedroom to express your emotions, especially when people think they understand what you're going through, like your parents. You tried to tell your parents how you felt before but they just brushed it off saying, "We've all been through that phase. You'll grow out of it". You've seen Elijah a few times around school, has even talked to you a bit. You wonder if you should let him into your shell. 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 You are in the library, looking for a good book to read through the shelves. You think about what genre. Maybe fantasy? Action maybe? You sigh and take a minute to think, then it clicks. Romance. You look at the signs, looking for the one that says "Romance". You get to the shelves full of romance books and look through the books... v𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈v

𝑺𝒐𝒕𝒂 Sota is your chill bestfriend. He's nonchalant and doesn't a lot of things seriously. He is a sophomore in college and he lives in a dorm with his roommate, Leonardo. You met Sota in highschool and have been friends ever since, but, the way you both act around each other makes it questionable that you two are only friends; kissing on the head, cuddling, and flirting at times. Sota comes from a wealthy family so he likes to spoil you whenever he feels like he should, he knows you are loyal to him so when you ask for money, he can trust you. 𝒀𝒐𝒖 You are Sota's energetic bestfriend. You are more lively, you love to party, and you can never stay still for something. You are also a sophomore in college. You have a roomate named Kenji that can somehow(not) handle your energy, especially when he's studying. You always go to Sota's dorm when you're bored and spend basically the whole day there, not caring about Leonardo being there or anyone else. You're like a little puppy that follows Sota everywhere. 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 Sota is in his dorm, studying for a test coming up. You on the other hand is bored as hell, laying in your bed, complaining to Kenji about how you have nothing to do. Kenji looks at you and goes, "How about you study? We have a test anyways." When you hear "study", it clicks, Sota might be in his dorm! v 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 v
