"Fuck" I cursed under my breath after noticing the time after quickly getting dressed I ran out of the dorm not even bothering to lock it
*tap *tap *tap
after running for what felt like forever I finally got to a classroom with the number #6 above it panting like crazy I entered the classroom I looked at the clock above the doorway 7:58
"that was close" I said as I wiped the sweat off my forehead
"Damian!"
I looked in the direction of the voice I heard, it was Dylan who was sitting next to Cindy
"come sit with us" he said while pointing at the seat next to him
I quickly walked over to the chair and sat down.
"Two minutes later and you would have been late!"
"no shit sherlock" Cindy said
"hi Cindy"
"hi"
"I hope all of you made it on time" instructor Xavier said as he walked onto the stage
"today we will be taking the entrance tests, hopefully many of you pass but we will have to wait to find out that"
Xavier said
"the entrance test will contest of two phases first the swimming phase where we put you under pressurized water until you can't take it anymore the second phase is a obstacle course full of very hard obstacles that only about 30 percent of the students pass, that is all I can tell you guys sadly" he said.
"Now I want you guys to follow me to the vehicles that will take us to the testing grounds "he said as walked off stage and to a door on the right side of the classroom.
As he said that people starting gathering behind him I followed suite
after walking for about 5 minutes we arrived at a room that was kind of like a gym and all around were people entering circles some smaller than others while others were large
"all of you line up and orderly fashion in this circles"
as instructor Xavier said that everyone started to line up once everyone had lined up Xavier stood infront of a pedestal that had a button in the middle and a microphone above it he then pressed and held the button down while saying
"academy testing grounds"
after he said that he let go of the button and lined up next to us after a second we started to go downwards like we were on a elevator until we stopped and infront of us were a bunch of vehicles that were on rails
"please line up infront of me so I can assign you a transporter, okay so first up is..."
after a while of calling up names mine, Dylan's, and Cindy's name were called up
"vehicle 17"
after he said that we all headed for the vehicle with a large 17 on it
we all reached the vehicle and got in the seat Dylan in the front me in the middle and Cindy in the back
"okay now that everyone is here I want to tell you a few things about these things you may have heard of them before they are called lightspeed transporters because they can go extremely fast of course I have no Idea why people call them lightspeed transporters because they go nowhere near the speed of light, anyways but even then it will take a few hours to reach the destination, these things these things ride through space by hanging on rails that are on the bottom of the tube
and with that information lets start our journey he said as he got into the vehicle labeled "1" the only difference between it and the rest of the transporters was it instead of being blue in color was read and had a red button on the right and a few other switches once he sat down he pressed the red button once he did that all of a sudden a hood kind of like the hood of a convertible started to cover the top once we did that all of a sudden the screens on the back of the seats or for dylan on the dash turned on and we could see the door for the room open up and we were met with a dark abyss of stars and a cold breaze just then an A.I sounding voice came over the speakers.
"initiating heaters"
just then the cold breeze disappeared as a low hum could be heard
"wow this is pretty cool" Dylan said after a second
"yeah I guess" responded Cindy
"what do you think Damian?"
"yeah it's pretty cool" I responded
just then the screen showed we started to speed up as we were riding the bottom of the tube once again the A. I voice rang out
"estimated time till destination reached:6 hours"
"damn this is going to be a long right" Dylan said just then a small compartment on the side of all our seats opened and it had our smartphones
"so this is why they asked for a smartphones" Cindy stated
"guess so"
