The sports test will test us on speed and strength. They will also weigh us and take our measurements. They will even give us a basic health check which Nicholas will do the boys and Coach Hayashi (sister) will do the girls.
First they test the boys on their speed with a beep test which they try to make it to the other side before the machine beeps. The girls go to the school infirmary to get weighed and measurements taken.
I step up on scale.
"33 kilograms!" Coach Hayashi exclaims. "You weigh the same as a 10 year old."
"Thanks?" I say uncertain whether that was a compliment or an insult.
Coach Hayashi grabs my arms and inspects my body. "You are so tiny. Tinier than I thought."
I stay quiet but inside I'm thinking if this is harrasement and if it is, can I sue her?
"She's so light."
"I wish I was that small."
No you shouldn't wish you were this small. I shouldn't be this small. I'm screaming on the inside when hearing the girls whisper in envy behind me. I don't like to be skinny but I have trouble putting on weight even when I as a baby. Some could say I've always been a midget.
After the measuring was finished we switched with the boys and start our beep test. I came first since running is one of my fortes (well here it is). And because my other forte is swimming they timed me at swimming along with a few others.
To test our strength they made us do shotput, discs and javelin. I came in top 5. Daniel, Quantum and Quasar were neck to neck in the boys division and surprising everyone is Ren who secured 4th in speed and strength.

"Concealing my power is so hard!" I whine while walking out of school with the four boys.
The four boys shake their heads. For you it's easy to be perfect but for us we have to work hard! They all complain in their minds but don't say it out loud.
"It's kind of weird how we all come in the top places. I know that we all work for it but it still is a bit weird." Quantum mutters.
Ren and Quasar nod also finding it a bit unusual but for Daniel and I we are used to it since we have always been top even when not trying. We were born into it.
We walk to a nearby restaurant to have dinner since it's 6 o'clock. Quantum, Quasar and Ren had club activities hence why we didn't have food sooner.
After an hour of eating and chatting we go our seperate ways. Quantum and Quasar went back to their house for tutoring. Ren teleported to have his lessons with Master Bai via spell on his brooch. Daniel was called to the police station by his mother and I walk back to the apartment alone.
Spring is slowly turning to summer and it is beginning to heat up a lot in the day.
When passing the alleyway that Ren once tried to stop a supernatural fight, a single shot rings out.
"Argh!" I shout and hold my waist. Without a second thought I dig my fingers into the wound to pull out a pure purple bullet. "A spirit bullet." I manage to say before my knees give way from the agonizing pain.
"Hahaha. You hit her Madre." An excited voice says from behind. Clapping sounds before the sound of heels walks towards me.
"Brittany!" I growl when recognizing the voice. I muster the strength I have left and turn to face her only to find that right beside her is Bethany.
"Pick her up and toss her in the back." Bethany orders to the pack members behind her.
They grab my shoulders and pick me up. "Where did you get.... the bullet?" I ask in a weak voice.
"Wouldn't you like to know?" Brittany barks.
I stare at her. That is why I'm asking you idiot! But before I can say anything I lose conscious and my body turns limp.
Spirit flower gems can be very dangerous. It's more painful than wolfsbane or silver. Even gold liquid cannot compare to it which makes spirit flowers so precious. The flower itself has healing properties which can produce the only antidote for the spirit gem.
*******************
An hour later I start to wake up which Bethany and Brittany notice.
"Madre she's waking." Brittany says.
"Finally." Bethany sighs relieved. She does not have any patience.
I feel something grab my hair and I come face to face with Bethany. I don't have enough energy to talk so I just glare at her.
"You look so mad." Bethany says. "I too am mad because you killed my son."
I rise a brow. Really? You payed people to kill my mother and siblings. Only difference is that I wasn't a coward and killed Benjamin myself.
"I didn't think that the bullet I was given could really make you weak, so weak that you can't even talk." Bethany scoffs.
"You think you're an untouchable god but you're nothing but human." Brittany sneers. "Whereas we are wolves. The top of the food chain."
I manage to revive some energy and use it on laughing. "You think that you dogs are the top of the food chain? Hahahaha! You can't even beat the vampires yet you dare claim that."
"You!" Both Bethany and Brittany clench their teeth. I hit the nail on the head.
A few years back vampires attacked the Moon Howlers pack and destroyed millions not to mention wiping out three quarters of the pack. Bethany, Brittany and Benjamin got the blame since they claimed that they are stronger than the vampire clan, but without my brothers stepping in the whole Moon Howlers would be exterminated.
"You b*tch!" Brittany screams.
"I wonder where I learnt that from?" I smirk up at them.
"Someone heat up the oil! This b*tch's face is annoying me." Brittany orders. She looks back at me but I smile at her. She can't control her temper and slaps my face.
"Stop it!" Bethany growls when my face turn red from the slaps but a beautiful smile is still plastered on my face. "She's not scared of a few slaps. But after torturing her she will be."
Brittany smiles and gives me another slap before a pack member walks in with a pot of something. Brittany looks in it and smirks. She grabs it from the pack member before ordering him to leave.
"This is going to be fun." Brittany laughs.
I look up just in time to see Brittany tipping the pot towards me.
"AHHHHHH!"
