Jackal

"Here's how you start a story you dirty little orphans five years ago..." he began.
"Marcus what did I say about calling us orphans? I mean, I might not be, but still not cool man!" I yell.
Pandora a savage planet full of danger, excitement, treasure, and not to mention, the ladies; this planet is one of a kind. You will never see a place more boring.
I don't know my name, but my friends call me Jackal and I'm a Vault Hunter. I should probably start with my trip to Sanctuary. I wave goodbye to my friends at the orphanage. My backpack was heavy on my shoulder and I almost dropped it to the ground. All they do is laugh.
"CATCH A RIDEEEEEE!" the station yells at me as I grab a light runner and drive off. Not much happened as I drove through the Dust and into the Highlands looking for Sanctuary. I stop as my throat feels dry
"I need a drink real bad." I mutter driving up a hill. I stop the runner outside of a place called The Holy Spirits. I hop out of the runner in time to see a man being thrown out and another watching him.
I rush past the two and step inside the bar noticing everyone there was ** drunk. I sit on a bar stool and grab a drink from a Zaford.
"You need anything else lad?" he asks. I just lift my hand and he walks away. He heads downstairs probably to grab some more drinks when funeral music starts to play.
"Dearly beloved…" a priest starts as the music lowers slightly.
"Kill them!" a voice suddenly yells and chaos erupts. A bullet whizzes by just barely missing my head. I go to turn with my dagger extended and I immediately see the face of the man who had tried to shot me. I quickly turn the rest of the way seeing three other people.
One was a girl with blue hair and tattoos on her arms. There was a man that could only be described as a dirty dwarf. Another was a tall man in a black suit. The final one was a solider of some type.
The tall man suddenly ran at me pulling a sword. My digistruct dagger immediately hit his sword and we stood there for a few moments.
"Zer0, does he look like a Zaford?" the girl with blue hair asks. Zer0 backed away.
"So kid, who are you?
Were you apart of the attack?
Hodunk hired us." The tall man says as the others look at me.
"The name is Jackal. I don't know my real one so don't ask. I'm here for Vault Hunter training. I found this recruit flyer." I say stepping back. They all look shocked except for the tall man. He had a red question mark on his face.
"Follow me." The solider says stepping forward. "By the way, I'm Axton. The dwarf is Salvador, the ninja over there is Zer0 and our lovely lady friend over there is Maya. We'll take you to your first part of training."
They led me away to another Catch a Ride system and we drove in silence. Axton and Zero were in a Bandit Technical with me while Maya and Salvador rode in another.
There wasn't much to see as we entered Sanctuary, only the citizens moping around. That is, until they led me into the training facility.
It had targets everywhere and a wide open space where I guessed you could fight. Axton stepped in front of me.
"OK. Let's determine who's going to be your mentor. Let me see you echo your action skill Rouge" Axton says. Axton and I turn to Zer0.
"Ten." Was the only thing he said.
"OK." Axton says. "Show us how your action skill works."
I immediately turn black then I start shifting through time and everyone around me felt it. I stop and look at Axton. He just nods to Zer0
Axton takes me farther into the training facility showing me various places I can change or practice my skills. He then leads me to a building that had plenty of empty beds.
"Training is tomorrow." He says and the lights are out before I can respond. I make my way over to a bed and lay down hearing Axton's footsteps grow quieter and quieter. I slowly drift to sleep.
