AHHH
Azalea falls out of the classroom holding her hands to where her skirt is. "Oh no what am i going to do"
A loud commotion is heard next to her the voice of a familiar friend.
"Why are you constantly hitting me?!"
"Because you're staring at my-"
"I can't help it were all falling!! Plus partners must stick together. If you want to win"
"Sunneta!" Azalea says.
"Azalea" turns around and attempts to head towards her friend.
SWOOP
The mysterious student grabs hold of Sunneta.
"Am your partner the hooded mage says as they dash away"
"Sunneta" Azalea calls out as she continues to fall.
SWOOSH
"I got you," Jericho says as he catches her out of mid-air as they slowly make a safe landing in the field of mushrooms.
JIGGLE JIGGLE
The two bounce off.
Jericho lands first on the hard ground.
"It wasn't so bad in the beginning but-"
AH
"Huh"
CRASH
Azalea lands on Jericho.
Dazed and confused "Why do I get knocked out" Jericho remarks as he carefully puts the pink-haired girl leaning on a giant mushroom.
With the cape of his uniform ruffled up he stands to dust himself off and fix it. He notices his gloves are slightly coming off so he stands and observes the area while fixing it. He rubs his cheeks as he still feels the slaps that Suneeta gave him.
"This forest. The gigantic trees. The oversized mushrooms. This vast space could only be one forest. The Greater Forest of Aiz" Jericho thought to myself. This was the forest I saw
when I was arriving here.
"Huh, what" Azalea comes to consciousness.
"Ah you are awake," Jericho says.
Azalea then realizes that her coat was scuffed up a little a little bit of her bra.
"Ah!" Azalea screams.
"Wait it's all just a mere misunderstanding. I saved your life" Jericho relays.
"You were looking at Sunneta ones too" Azalea fires back.
"No, it was indeed gravity"
"Where else could I have looked there were girls everywhere. Anyways I must go find my partner."
"Wait you are hurt."
Jericho didn't realize but he had a bruise and cut on the top right of his face near the hairline.
He reaches for his head with his right hand "Blood guess I didn't realize it." Ah, it must have happened when we were falling through the trees the branches and such must've hit me.
"Stay still"
A pink glow resonates with Azalea as Jericho's injury gets healed instantly.
"Wow thank you. Your magic is amazing. Id say it rivals our nurse" Jericho remarks.
"Thank you. I dont really use it on in public plus the others dont see that much use of it"
"Really I say dont believe them. I can also sense a large mana source from within you. What kind of mage are you?"
"A Spellcaster"
"Figures you dont look the type to be a Weapon Enhancer like myself. What is your name?"
"Am your partner Azalea.
"Oh, that other girl wasn't my partner?"
"The girl that slapped you a couple of times was Suneeta. Wait a minute I know you your the guy that tried to hit on us the other day?"
"Yes I am Jericho Pearson the youngest of the Pearson family and the second Dragonclad in this region"
"Oh K" Azalea says unimpressed.
"I see that you are not impressed but you soon will be the future member of The Federation and will by your side bring more to my family name," Jericho says as he stands proud.
"Ok"
"If you are alright let us get a move on. We're going to make it through this round."
Suddenly a purple barre gets placed around the forest.
"Hello. Testing." Issac's voice calls out once again.
"Sorry for the rude introduction to this test but Mages remember Expect the unexpected you could be ambushed and be put into a dire situation out there. So this part of the exam must prepare you"
BOOM BOOM
"Ah I see a duo has already been eliminated"
"Well for those still in care packages should appear where you are right about now"
VOOM
A package full of healing items, foods, and equipment appears.
"Where you are eliminated you will teleported back to the school in the infirmary. The rules of this exam are.
-You must stick with your assigned partner.
-The assigned partner may be ONLY switched if one partner is unable to compete due to another team attacking you. Meaning you can't attack your partner or else that means elimination as well.
-The two rings must placed somewhere visible much like your rankings of your classes.
-The two rings can be held by one person or split between the two partners.
-When collecting others' rings make sure to have it displayed once again.
-As I mentioned before the barrier created by the headmaster will gradually grow smaller every thirty minutes.
-Another thing to note all the staff and faculty are watching this live through the means of the inhabitants of this forest. So any cheating or breaking of the rules will be caught.
-This orb right here will let you know how much time is left before the barrier begins to close and the number below is the number of duos remain.
That is all"
--------------------------
Back at the Aurora Saint Academy, everyone else watches via broadcasts through Alfreds Dawkins' matter magic.
The rest of the student council are Axel, Luna, Faith, and Ceaser.
Captain Percival Caldwell and Alekzander Hart.
Headmaster Alfred Dawkins.
The homeroom teachers of 1A,1B, and 1C are Taz Fuldure, Celeste Carmen, and Ariana Heldam.
"The headmasters matter magic surely is magnificent" Axel proclaims.
"Yes, the power to practically do anything he pleases" Luna remarks.
"The fact that he can relay this broadcast, and create the magic barrier amazing," Faith says.
Ceaser nods.
"Ceaser, did you have any premonitions recently?" Axel asks as Ceaser shakes his head.
"Hmm, nothing yet let us know if there anything comes up. " Axel
"We should still watch ourselves" Faith remarks.
"We dont know who to trust," Luna says.
"Hey, how about the three of us make a little competition to see which class wins the Magus Exam?"
"Sounds interesting go on," Taz says.
"What does the winner take?" Celeste.
The two losers must pay for a dinner and the shopping spree of the winner Quill Amount is up to the winner's choice.
"Hey this sounds like it pertains to you Ariana are you certain of your student's victory?"
"Of course shouldn't we all be?" Ariana asks.
"Haha," Celeste lets out a chuckle. "How about the winner gets to pick what the other two do?"
"Hmm that sounds fair"
"It is then"
The three smile and continue to watch the second stage.
