Chapter 20 - Colour coding

As we line up in a dark corridor, each of are given two belts each. One for the waist, another for the head. I am at front of the line. Since becoming the public enemy amongst my fellow contestants, I had to engage in several verbal combats.

Good thing she is first, we won't get to deal with that eyesore for much longer.

I turn around and face her. 

Sophia my ass is prettier than your face and you should be glad you are not first because last I checked all I needed to trounce you was a bottle of shower gel.

Hey that wasn't even a fair fight. You can't claim you beat me with that.

Potato, potato. All I hear is a loser making excuses.

You b...

Settle down ladies. The voice of the matron sounds out. My my, the energy in here is great. Haha.

Now all of you, step into through the door. the door in question is opened and we all move into the tournament grounds. As we file in, the cheers of the pack is defeaning. When we get here we all look around in surprise.

Matron, This is not what you described.

Yes, indeed. There has been a last minute change of plans.

But why?

The Alpha was not satisfied with what we had planned for this week so we had to change it. Now I will explain the new game to you.....

You bitch

The matron looks up in surprise.

It's because of you he changed the game. you bloody whore. Sophia says looking enraged.

Very Original Sophia. i am sure you thought about that all by yourself.

The matron looks between two of us. You over there minus 15 points

What?

You, pointing at me, minus 5 points.

Now ladies, I do not know what the matter is but I guess it's because you feel she might have gained favour with the Alpha. Whatever the case maybe, you do not get to act entitled and denigrate the Alpha with your words neither are allowed to interrupt me while I am speaking.  In case you have forgotten, you are here for a competition!!

And your price is the Alpha, if she gains favour with him, she is only playing the game well, unlike some of you.

As I was saying, this is how the game goes. You each where giving Two bands before coming. The colour on your head band differs from the one of your waistband. 

For the first round, you will fight the person with the same colour of headband as yours. For the second round, you will fight someone with the same colour of waistband as you. After the first two rounds. Those with Two wins automatically get immunity and do not need to compete in the third round and those who lose two consecutive matches are automatically disqualified.

Gasps go round.

For the third round, Those remaining will make draws to choose their opponents. The winners of this round will be qualified to join those with immunity. As for the losers, they will have one more chance to prove themselves and they will choose their opponents by draw once again, The final losers are eliminated.

Mummurs go about as everyone starts sizing each other up.

Listen up, you do not want to miss any of the instructions.

You are not allowed to transform fully or any part of your body. Failing this will grant an automatic win to your opponent. 

There is a platform for fighting, falling of this platform will grant an automatic win to your opponent.

The match is 5 mins per fight. Within this time you can either win by knocking out your opponent or it goes to the judges.

More murmurs.

This match signifies the human part of the werewolf. If you are in a place where you cannot transform without exposing our existence to the humans how will you defend yourself? In this pack we value a Luna who can defend not just herself but the secrecy of the pack and werewolves in general.

Now starting with the first person, Who are your first and second opponents?

I point them out and it goes on like that.

A tall man with graying hair acts as the host.

For the first match today we have to my right Lila. Cheers go round the stadium.

And to my left we have The Alpha's meal.

Cheers and laughter go around. 

I put on a big smile andwave at my adoring fans.

Already the Matron has briefed you the rules, show good sportsmanship. Now you may FIGHT!

A bell goes off

It's time. 

Around the platform we were on, There were high chairs that required small ladder to climb, Four in total, Matron was in one of them.

Lila attacks and I dodge. She attacks again and I dodge.

What are you doing Amelia?

She is stronger than me

When she is her wolf form, now you are on even grounds.

She attacks again and I dodge.

Most packs are do their training in wolf form, so you might have a chance.

I think back remembering that the same went my pack.

Ooof

I fall backward. Lila's foot had connected with my stomach.

Amelia dodge!

Too late.

Lila had knocked me out.
