"You know this won't help if we act like this now how can we work as a team in few hours from now, please let's just act normal atleast for today then after today we can continue snubbing each other".
"..." Still there was no response, I was now wondering if he was the same person that wanted me badly just some weeks back, I was really confused but since this was how he wanted it, I'll gladly keep up with the flow and with that but of us were quiet till we got to the venue for the competition. After we received tons of encouraging words and advice from our coach, we were called to stage.
I walked to my seat majestically like a bride that was being led to the aisle on her wedding day. I had gone extra mile in making sure I look extremely beautiful for this day. I got a new school uniform for myself, it was the normal white long sleeve and and a red burberry skirt that our school uses but the one I was wearing was massively designed, my shirt was the same but it was starched while my skirt was a styled in a different manner, it was also very short, also my tie was well knotted, I was wearing a pair of designers shoes, my hair style was top notch, I was also wearing a very expensive silver wristwatch and my socks were sparkling clean.
The necklace I wore(though it was inside) was also very expensive and rare to find, the fragrance of the perfume that I was wearing could be perceived in all corners of the hall. I really wondered how the students and teachers sat in the bus without choking their ribs off most especially Steve.
I looked at him from the corner of my eyes to check if he was okay with my walking steps, his eyes were screaming 'You're doing bullshit' but I didn't care, I continued my majestic walk taking all the time in the world to move slow and steady. When I got to my seat, I genuflected slightly before sitting down.
In no time we began the quiz, students from over thirty different schools were there to compete. Steve and I answered the questions that were thrown at us so easily, the questions were exactly the same with what blonde hair taught me, it was as if he had seen the questions before.
I saw different people, the witches, the disguised vampires, the hybrids, doppelgangers, sirenians and even a stayer... Actually there was just one stayer, when I looked through the girl it was obvious that she wasn't the one controlling her body... I tried to look deeper into her and it dawned on me that it was her mother's ghost that have decided to stay behind in order to watch her daughter grow. The mother had died long ago but she didn't want to rest, she stayed back on earth so that she could take care of her daughter. Now she was in a competition in order to help her daughter get a scholarship...
Seeing the massive crowd made me worried, the question on my mind was how I'm I going to win against these various race of people? An idea struck me almost immediately, if they use their magical powers then I'll also use mine and if they don't then I won't.
Soon things started getting out of hand, the schools with two humans as their partners were already disqualified, the remaining schools were schools that had supernatural powers on their side... Soon the questioners ran out of questions so they called for a quick break, they said nothing like that had ever happened since beginning of the Annual School Competition, only ten schools answered five hundred questions within an hour. Seeing the poor humans that were going to stress themselves to bring another sets of questions for us made me feel pity for them,After the questioners left, I carried my angry self and walked out of the hall with Steve following me like a loyal servant who was going on a trip with his master. Actually I wasn't tired but I was angry I wanted to go and smack someone.
"And where do you think you're going with this mood?" Steve asked drawing me backward.
"I'm going to kill". I screamed at him and those around us quickly looked at the me but immediately their eyes met my eyes, they looked away.
Steve dragged me to a corner where no one could neither see us nor hear us.
"Who are you killing?"
"Those freaking doppelgangers! How can they do that, why will one be surfing the net to find answers while the other says the answer?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Geez... Steve I guess you need to work on your powers and stop thinking like a mere human".
"What? I'm confused".
"Stop screaming, you are from the Targaryen lineage which means your ancestors tamed dragons and that's why you all her powerful, I guess it's actually from your dad's family because your mom isn't that strong and brave".
"And so? What does that have to do with doppelgangers?" I knew he was surprised by this revelation but he acted as if he wasn't...
"Okay, back to my major task. Those beings are two people in one body, while one is visible to humans, the other isn't visible..."
"I don't understand, how does that concern the competition?" He asked again with confusion boldly written on his face.
"Dumbass, listen let me talk". I knew he was offended because I called him a dumbass but I didn't care. I continued my explanation without caring if he was hurt or not.
"They are two identical people with one body, one can be seen while the other can only be seen by the doppelganger itself or other supernatural beings. Now this is what happened, the doppelgangers splitted into two while the visible one answered the question the other one browsed the answers to the question and she told her".
