Frank had accepted being inside the Academy to instruct the children in the proper way to use a weapon and the ways of protection against them, he had to give credit on the reasons he gave at the headmistress about his actions after being a journalist. And the things he had to do to survive back then. He knew it would be new instruct students in the different ways and secure use of weapons. Also, if things get in the right position, he would be able to help then in creations of weapons using anything. But first he had to give his best. He had to confront with students who are so clever they can pull anything without consequences, who are so prideful, who doesn’t learn fast or those who need help by others. Typical students from any school. Either way, he goes at the small section he shares with Ragna.
Frank took a deep sigh. He looked at his camera still around his neck. His days had finished so he had no need to use it no more. He picked it off and put over the table. ”Heh, if I have some oars and chainsaws. I would love to create that large weapon I used many times” he commented as look a broom some inches away from him. “But that would be so dangerous for the little ones. I should do the basic. Perhaps it is for the best, we don’t want injuries ones already. And more in the first day of class” he thought loud.

Frank looked at the clock he has on the pockets of his jacket, it was a quite long since he stayed inside the gym section where he was going to use for his own class. He knew there are some students who might be interested in his class. And others who might be around just to cause trouble. He looked the desk and the benches around. He was quite off of what he is going to do. But, it would be the best for those who might be in trouble or want some fighting experience where martial arts cannot help. Even he knew about people and creatures alike who can defend with weapons or with martial arts only. Rare see one who can rely on both. thing weird considering fighting hand to hand is manual stuff... but he is not going to make criticism about it.
He looked at the clock again. ”Man, I wonder where are the students... of course, I don’t know if it’s safe making some class when half of them hadn’t arrive or hadn’t prepare their things within their rooms. Yet, much time they had. It would be a real shame if they skip classes. In that case, I would start to give small minus points to them...” he said by sitting over the chair next the desk. And put his shoes over the wooden desk while rest over the sitting furniture.
”Em... excuse me...” from the entrance of the section, Ruffnut appeared “...are you supposed to be our weapons teacher?”
”In fact, yes” Frank mentions.
”Well, I never expected someone like you be one... and less one of those men who do newspapers...” the Viking mentions again as held a laughter.
”Laugh all you want I assume you would not mind in take off your already A+ into A-, right?” Frank said as he looked at the girl who made an angry face while looking at him “What? Do you expect something a much barbarian like fighter with tattoos and many scars around the body, half naked with immense beard and high pumped? Then, sorry to shatter your dreams. Now, if you don’t mind I waiting for students. If you are one then sit. If you are not, then leave.”
Ruffnut sighed while face palms herself. She walked around to pick a bench from the fourth row at the bottom left. Almost be in the corner. ”Hope you bring a notebook and pencils. Because I going to give the first class with writing” Frank looked at her, as she sat down without nothing over the bench table. The Viking get off the furniture and went for her bag outside the gym. “Sheesh, I hope students be quite careful with these things...”

"AAAHHH, I'M LATE, I'M LATE, I'M LATE!!!"
Ruby couldn't believe her luck. She was busy making sure Zwei was taken care of and lost track of time. She may get into trouble for using her speed but she would worry about that later. She didn't notice she rushed pass Saber who moved out of the way in time before she entered the room. Saber shook her head and walked inside, making sure she wasn't bringing attention if the class already started.
"I'm here, I'm here! I'm so sorry I'm late!" Ruby exclaimed between breaths. The marking on her skins started to disappear as the rose petals fell to the ground behind her. "My dog pet kept trying to sneak out and I didn't realize the time..."

Blake quietly followed in after Saber, the half-cat remembering her as a fellow returning student and the head of the student council. She had gotten lost in her training and only had noticed the time a short while ago. Fortunately for her, she had been training in the gym. Her golden eyes glanced around the room, taking in the other students in the room.
So far, didn't seem there was too many. Shortly after after the short black-haired girl had rushed in, a certain slime prince snuck right in after her, a sheepish expression on his face. With what had happened at the park with Honoka and Kanji, he had lost track of time as well. Plus, he was at the park, he had to ride on Ranga's back to make it in time! ...Well, mostly in time.
He had instructed Ranga to return to the dorms, and get some rest. The run had tuckered the Tempest Wolf out. Though he peered in interest at the girl's fading markings and the rose petals falling to the ground, how interesting.
Oka poked her head into the room, an apologetic expression on her face. After arriving in Lunaville and being taken to the school, she had trouble finding the gym, after setting herself up in her dorm room, her roommate not around at the time, and it certainly didn't help that a bout of shyness had caused her to hesitate in asking for directions. She'd have to work on that...
"U-um, is this the Weapon's Knowledge class?" Oka asked the man, likely a staff member/teacher himself. Best to ask and make sure, rather then accidentally end up in the wrong class.

Frank was occupied with the small papers he has over the desk, he looked at the entrance of the gym once more if the Viking is going to return back for the whole situation she performed just moments ago. Not his fault, she needed to be more careful with her own things. He rested behind the chair while looking at the ceiling. Those years as journalist really are a thing he had to let it pass. His time within the academy must go well.
One more sigh before he could heard the noise coming from one corner, as look some rose blossoms around the ground, just to see at some student who is screaming about being late and put the excuse about the dog... well, typical student who want to be saved before the class. ”No problem, Ms...” Frank looked the paper with the students who are going to be in his class “...Rose...?” He stopped one second to laugh silently, about thinking about Rose, the teacher of Charms and Potions being a student... then he recovered to look at the girl there. “Sorry, just something I remember. Anyways, try to not repeat this behavior, Ms. Rose. There are many things I shall speak about and not getting here at the specific time would be very dangerous and very misfortune for your grades”
He looked then at more students arriving at the entrance. As heard the question of the boy.
”Yes, this is the Weapon Knowledge class. Here you are going to learn about all weapons and about defend/attack with them. Like some firmed once said to me. A Shield Can be a good defense but also a weapon. And a sword a true killing machine but in expert hands it can deflect other’s attacks” Frank said at the boy.
Then, he looked at the Viking return with her notebook and pencils. As she found out the whole students arriving too. She sighed as she picked the seat she was moments before. He sighed a bit. Among the whole class, there were five long tables. Each one with five chairs each. Two tables were in front. While three behind. Ruffnut took the first seat from the one at the left behind table.
He didn’t care where students want to sit. Or if they want to be with friends. He wanted all pay attention. “Okay, let’s wait other five minutes before other students arrive here, if they didn’t arrive, we shall start class. Hope you bring a notebook and pencils.” He mentioned at the ones who arrived first.
”Wait!” A voice from behind shouted. As a red fur kitten arrived. Campanella had been doing small things within the library as put a few books in their right place, and he hasted the best at the class. “Am I safe?”
”Seems this is the class... right?” Zoe arrived next. She was helping Tohru Honda with her things. And she obtained some new roommate, she didn’t met before yet she wanted to explore a bit around. Until see the gym. “We are going to learn about weapons, right?”
”Yes, Ms. Elgin and Campanella. This is the class” Frank was starting to feel a little annoyed to repeat himself about the whole thing. “Anyways, if anyone enters, inform them to bring notebook, pens and pencils. Today class is going to be presentation, how it shall work and how are we going to see in this class”

Frank took a great sigh before look at the chalkboard and then the students who arrived.
”Okay, we are going to learn the history of the weapons and the basic stuff based on the ancient ones...” he started to put the topic on the board with the chalks, as make small drawings about stone axes, basic lances made by a stick and even sling “Okay, let’s start with a basic question about weapons and fringing with them... why was the whole purpose of a weapon?”
”It was to smash others skull” Ruffnut said almost instantly.
”That might be a basic and barbaric way to say it... but that’s not the point of make a weapon and wield it” Frank pinched his nose as closed his eyes before continue. “Any other idea?”
”To gather food from the animals?” Zoe said
”Well, basic enough but not the point either” Frank thought about it yet he denied the answer. “But it was close”
”Any other...?” He asked at the ones around “Ms. Rose, Ms. Belladona...?”

Silence was the answer to him. It was not a good thing to the students who seems wielding weapons is just a way to demonstrate their own independence and their own power towards others. But, it seems their basics didn’t really work on them. He couldn’t but write minus one point aside on a random note on his desk.
“Seems these days people want to wield a weapon but not know their true meaning” Frank sighed before he looked on the class before him. “Okay, let’s say that it is very hard for children like you, don’t get jumpy and don’t get me wrong, but weapons are more than hunt animals, attack another or just wielded them to show power. The basic of a weapon is to defend oneself. Or defend those who cannot”
Frank goes at the chalkboard and started to draw the best he could a man with a stick and another with another stick but behind an attempt of children and women. ”I know, nowadays children and women can defend themselves. But, it is by nature men do the hard work of protect others, and thus, be the ones who defend what they most love and care in the world. In ancient times, there was no powder to be invented, there was no steel to be forged and there was no advanced high quality items to do some special portable weapons”
He goes at the desk and picked off basic materials. Stone, sticks, pebbles, leather and a small candle where he lit. ”Cavemen and ancient creatures have these items. In their lifetime. For you, this would turn absurd. But, it was a hard time trying to survive in a world where anything can kill you. And metals hadn’t been discovered yet”
He looked at the students again. ”May you give me some examples about which kind of weapon one can do with these?”

Frank started to feel the students have or no idea about the weapon wielding or they really want to be heroes by not have a slight about the topic. And it was normal, children are very impulsive and they little care about consequences about the situation they might have in front of them. But at least, he was seeking for basic knowledge. And it would be hard to sympathize with most of them. However, from children around there are some teenagers who might have more knowledge than their infant days. Frank just sighed as he pointed at the students about the topic and question he mentioned,
“A slingshot?” Campanella asked in response.
“Well, yes. A slingshot can be used” Frank picked up a rock, some leather and rope with a stick to improvise a slingshot “This was the first sniper rifle in history. With this weapon you could make birds fall on the ground, or hit lizards. But in ancient times, this weapon was used to kill Mountain Wolves, big bulls and Sabertooth tigers. Despite the simplicity of the time and item, a good slingshot shot at a very precise point Can result deadly”
“A spear” Ruffnut mentioned.
“Yes, since in ancient times, they might use a long stick...” picking up a stick and sharpen one side by using a cardboard box razor, “...or use one of these...” picking from behind the chalkboard a another stick but with a sharp and pointing blade made of stone. “These are the very beginning of the band to hand weapons. And it was used mostly to hunt bigger or faster animals. To gather food and defend from dangerous ones”
He was waiting for more students who might gave him good ideas how a weapon can be created with the basic items in the desk.

" AAAHHH, I'M LATE, I'M LATE, I'M LATE!!!" Ruby couldn't believe her luck. She was busy making sure Zwei was taken care of and lost track of time. She may get into trouble for using her speed but she would worry about that later. She didn't notice she rushed pass Saber who moved out of the way in time before she entered the room.

The marking on her skins started to disappear as the rose petals fell to the ground behind her. "My dog pet kept trying to sneak out and I didn't realize the time..." Frank was making small examples with the basic weapons in history with the items cavemen used in the Stone Age. Also, some primitive creatures used these weapons to defend against different feral ones that didn’t evolved their brilliance and their brains into a more comfortable position. He was hearing the examples Ruffnutt and Campanella said to him about the slingshot and the spear.
Yet, he looked on Rose.
”Ms. Rose. May you give me an example or two of a basic weapon cavemen and primitive creatures might use despite the spear and slingshot creation? I assume you have some weapon knowledge by the weapon you are carrying with?” Frank pointed out the scythe the girl has folded and next to her “of course, if you are carrying it as a flashy decoration I not going to say nothing but then there’s no point in have a defense if you are going to show it instead use it” of course, he didn’t know if the girl hats the weapon as what a weapon is used for or a fancy item to show around.
To him, it’s the normal. He knows people and sentient creatures who like to collect fancy weapons for collection only. Hardly a warrior or a hunter can be seen these days with the gunpowder technology and some energy advantages too.
Of course, the comment made Ruffnutt giggle little.

Best to ask and make sure, rather then accidentally end up in the wrong class. “Ms. Belladonna, Mr. Tempest and Mr. Oka…you are late to the class. I not going to give you any report for now, but keep the time always around your schedules. The next time, I not going to give you this warning.” Frank said while he looked at the three students going inside. “Take your seats and ask for the information I gave already to your classmates since I not repeat myself” he mentioned while returning back to the chalkboard.
”So, in the Stone Age, the weapons were used as defense against animals and feral creatures. In ancient times, the first humans were trying to survive in a world were magic was still a myth and there was no one who knew how to control it. Let’s say, magic is much ancient than electricity, but magic was a primitive energy not explored by those who, at least, knew how to survive using the fire after lightning storms. And little they knew the fire can be used as a weapon. To them, it was a tool” Frank gave the information while making basic drawings on the chalkboard about stickmen like cavemen with a fire and some feral animals. ”Seems you will learn something about why there are sentient creatures around us and how they were evolved in your history class. But I can give you a small history lesson with me. But I am sure Cybersix shall give you a best approach” he cleared his throat before look at the students.
”By far, the energies that were made by the impact of distant energies coming for the space and exterior theorized beings from out space that impacted and make the whole extinction to the dinosaurs and some catastrophic damage made in massive extinctions before the first sentient creatures appear, are still a mystery. And all is theory. However, what is not a problem it’s the discover of weapons made by ancient lizard men who were dinosaurs who devolved into basic creatures to survive the extinction. And while the ice age was around the next who evolved were the wolves and much, later the felines. And alongside reptiles, the birds took their place. And each have their method of making weapons using their fangs, claws or the corpses of their comrades” Frank picked a spear but this was more bone made with a stone in the head.
“Mrs. Belladonna…might to guess which from the four ancient creatures this spear belongs to?”
