All the stares from those around me start to change from confusion and shock, slowly turned into disgusted looks and grins. But I ignored them as I start to feel really energetic right now as if I could run a marathon! It's a super weird feel than what i'm use to that I forgot I was on the floor and forgot the people around me. "How long are you going to laze around for huh?! Do you not respect those around you for waisting time on our once in a life time chance to gain honor to ourself and family! This test is very important and your making everone wait by not paying attention! How could someone like you even enter...!" before the girl could speak and hand suddenly covers her mouth and the boy responsible began to speak to me "Even if what she said was put rudely it's true, i'm suggesting that you should just leave now before you make anymore of a secne". I scan his face he look at me like he's better even though it wasn't obvious, for me it's easy to reconise that look.... my brother alway looked at me like that. His looks and figure were really eye catching but then I relised I was still on the floor, in these's situations I have learnt it's better to accept what they say to not get harmed. "your right my apologies i'll take my leave then", as im getting up I hear a mumble for his mouth " your primary power must be pathetic for you to not try at all".
These word's were so accurate towards my personallity that my heart felt so much pain, no matter how many time's I hear it, how it makes my feel, my never response has never changed! I truly want it to, I think of what to say and how it will go in my head all the time but when it really counts I mess up. As my head hangs low and my feet are draging myself away through the small croud I hear a old mans voice vegin to speak "Lucy Trignet. I have not given you permission to leave, turn around and keep quiet" even though i've only said one sentence I now have to remain quiet, I can hear the scoffs of many before the man spoke again. " You all have come of age to participate in Centria's test. You'll receive you secondary power before going into the chosen location that you'll spend a week in. For a reminder your primary power is what you are born with and a secondary power is one we awaken for you, it can not be awaked by yourself only by golden shardes. Your secondary power will either benifit or empower your first power, and in some rare cases you may not have a secondary if you primary one is weak. The rules are you may make a team before hand or fly solo, it will be impossible to harm a team member even if you tryed and you will not gain anything from harming other contestants. Your goal is too survive a week with no help, you can't leave the area you can only use the retreat band to exit but by doing that you will be instantly disqualify from gaining a rank. The retreat band instantly teleports you right back here, if removed there is no penalty but the band will no longer be active. Dangers consist of other raises such as wood arniks, gobils, fairies and tranks, they are commonly found all around the area we have selected. Uncommon raises that are around certain area would be flinks, enemy golams and glow germs. Going over mount terra and falling into the lands of demise is still counted in the area but surviving the fall is near impossible for you, your best bet it to use your retreat band. The explanation is now over, follow the five masters in white to recive your secondary power".
Powers? Weird glows things... what? What on earth are these people on? Now i'm stuck in the middle of this crowd! Theres now way to get out of here, I begin to freak out! I ask myself the 5 w's who, what, when, where and why am I here? And god why am I only thinking of this now! My heads going to explode, my energy is just now going down I feel so physically well but my mind is screaming for help. We arive right in frount of this mountain looking area after we were just in a plain scenery looking area, my mind can catch up with all of this! I cant even hear what people are saying now, I know my face has a clear look of fear. As my mind keeps running I feel a tap on my shoulder and my head looks strait towards the old man in a white clocke "Lucy Trignet this is not the time to regret you are here now and there is no turning back, place your hand ontop of the stone in my hand". what doea he mean I can't go back "umm look sir I think there was a mistake I never willingly came here so if I could just leave please?", the man infrount of me look in confusion then when back to a sirouse look, " Miss Trignet we gained your parents agreement and saw you willingly walk here on your own, try not to cause another unessasary event like earlier". He takes my hand and the stone began to glow bright, It feels like it has a stong forced but im not effected at all. As the glow dies down he then guides my towards the long path to the mountains and told me to wait with the others till everone is ready. It didn't take long for that to happen as my mind was so focused on what just happened I didn't even notice that the retreat band was already placed on my wrist.
The group of people my age mostly all looked fierce and ready to go while I was just trembling, "Alright now is the time to enter and there is no turning back untill a week is over, so let the test begin". As soon as the old man said that everone began to run besides my and this other girl, this girl look very fragile and meek. She began to cry and beg to not take the test and I thought if she could leave then so could I but how wrong I was. They looked down at her like she was prey and the all of a sudden a sword was pulled out of no where and she had instantly been stabed through the chest. "w-w-w what did you...!" As I spoke they quickly looked at me and my instincts told me to run away, and thats what I did, I ran strat towards the path that leads to the mountains and did not stop at all.
