The games finally started after the ring of a large bell. Everyone began cheering including Athena. She was also excited to see how it'd turn out even though she knew she was never going to admit that truth to Alexander. Firstly, the amateur team came and displayed the tricks they had learnt. A young girl blew out fire from her mouth and everyone cheered then a younger boy came up to do stunts that amazed everyone, Alex included. "How the hell did he do that?!" "He's really amazing," Athena said laughing. Someone came onto the podium to speak before the begining of the main event. They began by thanking everyone for participating in the games and also thanked the guests before specially thanking the Royal family for appearing today. Then the games started. Athena still hadn't seen Heyli or Loki and she was starting to get really worried. Heyli was supposed to participate in one of the games with the junior team and she had assigned Loki to her to protect he
"Go ahead and join your team." Loki said and pushed Heyli forward. The amateur team all stood together and as soon as Heyli saw Nina, Kayla and Melodie, she walked to them. "Hey, girls," "Where the hell have you been?" Kayla asked as she pulled Heyli to the side. She scrutinized her. "At the river. I had no idea there was a river here. It's so beautiful!" Heyli said in an excited tone but it was obvious that none of the girls were finding things funny. "Harrison has been looking everywhere for you," Nina said calmly. Harrison's name sounded like sour apples in her mouth. "Why?" She shrugged. "I have no idea. Probably to assign you to your team. But don't worry, you're in our group." Heyli nodded. "Can you guys fill me in on what happened while I was gone?" "Gone with Loki?" Melodie said and rolled her eyes. "People are starting to think that you both are an item," Heyli huffed a breath. "As long as you three don't believe it, I'm okay with
"Your task is to go into the woods, and come back with a red emblem. It's just one and one team has to get it to win a prize and also increase their rank on the scoreboard," One of the senior team members says out loud. "This is going to be fun!"Melodie squealed. Only Hazel shared her excitement but the other girls didn't find it fun. "Heyli, Melodie is a beast in the game and she has this sadistic tendency. That's why she's happy. She's happy that she would be giving someone from another team an injury. So don't share her excitement," Heyli looked at Melodie but this time, she did so in another light. Melodie was the most lighthearted and carefree person among them all. Why would she be sadistic? She didn't even look like she could hurt a fly. As she looked around, her eyes caught Harrison. He was standing with a group of guys his height or even taller and they cracked jokes to attract the females standing around them. Heyli shook her head and turned back to her
"Are you sure Heyli would be safe out there?" Athena asked Alex as they both walked hand in hand towards the table containing food. Now that the main games had begun, their journey was being announced by a GPS map which showed each point for each time with their color beeping on the screen. "Didn't you ask Loki to follow them secretly in case of any looming danger?" Alex asked as he piled up his plate with food. Athena was busy looking at the screen. "What color is Heyli's team?" "Sage green," Alex replied and joined her in watching the projector screen display. He used his finger to pick on the potato chips and picked up a ball of meat which he tore through with his sharp teeth. He frowned when he saw their position. "They're behind everyone else and it showed that they stopped moving for five minutes." Athena began to panic immediately. "Are you sure something hasn't happened to her? She probably shape shifted and started attacking everyone." "Calm
For a split second, Ciara felt her life flash before her eyes as the car overturned while cranking loudly. They were on a lonely road and that was more dangerous than anything. No help from anywhere and they sure couldn't beat this thing. "Hold onto the handle on the roof!" Daniel cried out as the car began to tilt sideways. Ciara immediately did as she was told. She had encountered a lot of difficult and dangerous situations but none of it had made her as afraid as she was right now. She wanted to cry and she wanted to fight that beast. "What do we do, Daniel! This car is going to overturn and we'd get injured," Daniel was at the other side of the car, holding onto the roof handle for dear life and he whipped his head towards her. "Hold onto the handle first! We need to save our lives before anything else!" The driver was also holding onto dear life and as the car overturned, Ciara felt a wave of dizziness wash over her. She blinked her eyes to ea
Alex suddenly stopped walking. "Something doesn't feel right," Athena, who had been blabbering and walking before him suddenly stopped and turned to see him standing really still. "What is it, Alexander?" Athena said and walked back to where he stood, looking lost. She touched his arm. "Something feels wrong," "With the games?" She asked, worried that he was looking this way. Alex shook his head and she felt relief by a certain percentage. "What is it, then?" "Something is wrong with Daniel and Ciara. They're in danger," And that was when it dawned on Athena. She just remembered that Alexander was connected with his better and could sense when they were in danger as they had unlocked that level. She grabbed his hand and stared into his eyes. "What exactly is wrong?" Alex was really calm as he was trying to collect his thoughts. "I don't know but I feel intense danger and a little relief." "Relief?" Athena asked. "What does it mean? A goo
"We're going to be here for a few hours before we leave," Vin said as he checked Ciara's vitals. "Why is that?" Daniel asked. "We came to hunt. We've found the antidote to this shenanigan and would be applying it with immediate effect," Vin replied. They were inside another truck that had been modified to an ambulance truck. It contained the necessary machines needed for injured and sick people. "How is my wife doing?" Daniel asked. Whatever reason they had come here for was none of his business. "She's okay. She went into shock and she's really delicate. The only response to her body was this. To keep her and the baby safe," "Is the baby safe?" "Yeah, it is. You're one lucky man. With the impact it had on her head, she wouldn't have survived." "She held onto the handle of the roof," "But she has a concussion but it's nothing serious." Before Daniel could reply, they heard the crackling of electricity and the guttural groan of a medium
Daniel and Ciara were surprised that they would be here this fast. They both stood to their feet and climbed down the trunk while Vin followed after them. Indeed, the Antartian warriors had arrived. They came in three trucks and as one halted, warriors poured out. "What are they doing here?" Daniel asked no one in particular. "To save us, of course," "How were they able to know we were in danger?" "One call or two would do the trick," "No, Ciara," Daniel facepalmed. "The Lycan Confederate are proud and love to take credit. They wouldn't have called them," "Our driver must have done that," Ciara said and shrugged. "No, Ciara. Our driver is long dead," Ciara looked at him with horror in her eyes. "How the hell did that happen?!" "He was coming to open the door so I could carry you out. He came to assist me and as soon as he opened the door, something grabbed onto his neck and lifted him into the air." "Why does this have to happen?" Ciar
