Re: Chapter 1

Clief, Jayden and all the other contestents entered the arena. They all looked around at their surroundings. It was a big circular arena that had a rugged landscape. The ground was uneven everywhere, there were many obstacles such as trees, small walls and rocks. It was not suitable for fighting.

"This is gonna be harder then I thought", said Clief, staring at the walls surrounding the contestants. Jayden looked too. There were 5 tunnels surrounding the arena, all with gates in front of them.

"I suppose the monsters will come out from there", said Jayden.

"Yea", replied Clief. "Lets go".

All 28 contestants walked into the center of the ring. Jayden looked up into the stands to look for Nari. At last he finally found her. She was talking to Cato. Jayden wondered what they were talking about.

"CONTESTANTS", said the announcer. "PLEASE STAND AT LEAST FIVE METERS AWAY FROM EACH OTHER".

Everyone walked to different spots of the arena so they were at least five meters apart.
Jayden and Clief made sure they were near each other.

"NOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO QUIT", continued the announcer. "PLEASE EXIT THROUGH GATE 1. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO WALKTHROUGH THE FORCEFIELD. NOW IF YOU NEED HELP GETTING OUT, PRESS THE RED BUTTON ON ANY OF THE BLACK POLES AROUND THE ARENA. OUR SPECIALISTS WILL GET YOU OUT".

Jayden looked up at the announcers area to see five sorcerers, each in a different coloured robe. Jayden was disgusted, he knew he wouldn't press the red button to get help, especially from them.

"The nearest black pole is just over there", pointed Clief. Jayden turned around and saw that it was about seven meters away from him and Clief.

"NOW REMEMBER, said the announcer. "YOU COULD DIE HERE, SO IF YOU WANT TO QUIT NOW, PLEASE EXIT THE ARENA NOW".

Two people left the group and headed towards the exit tunnel. After they had disappeared into the tunnel, the tunnel entranced enveloped into a light blue see-through wall.

"OKAY CONTESTANTS, GET READY".

Everyone readied their weapons. Jayden looked at Clief one more time and noticed his Crystal Sword.

"Don't forget", said Jayden. "Summons aren't allowed, so you can use the Crystal Sword but don't get Duegan out okay".

"Okay", said Clief, grabbing his steel sword.

Jayden held his sword in a way that would allow him to fight but would also allow him to grab his bow in time.

The steel gates surrounding the other tunnels opened up. Jayden looked up at Nari and Cato one last time to see her smiling at him. He looked back at the tunnel closest to him to see the dust moving inside.
