The next day zuri woke up in sweats again
It already was a normality for her
„Woaaa it's already 7am I have to get ready fast!"
She ranto the bathroom to freshen up and afterwards got dressed and put her make up on in her room.
‚Actually what exactly do you do on course day? I think I should've paid more attention..'
„I guess I can just ask sophie-"
She started that sentence while pulling her phone up before realising she didn't save her number.
She felt truly stupid in that moment
‚I just have to ask my brother.'
She said while sighnin
She packed her stuff and went outside to the car on the driveway where akari already sat waiting.
„was about time you come."
„you're literally the last person who's allowed to tell me that."
„sure."
He said smirking and started the car.
„hey bro, I have a question."
„sure what's up, why do you sound so deep?"
„okay but don't make fun of me."
„can't promise but I'll try."
„fine.. so~ what are we supposed to do on the course day?"
„PFFFTTT-- PHAHAHAHA- ha~ you do realise course day is today right?"
„ugh I knew he would laugh." She said mumbling to herself.
„just tell me what we have to do."
„sure fine. Basically it's a test, testing your exact talents and weaknesses and based on that you will put into the courses, if you're specially good at something you will be put in an advanced course and if you have something you are really bad at you have to spend more time on that until you get an at least average score.
So your timetable will be based on today completely.
You will wander an groups of 12 and per course you have to compete against one or more groups.
To make the teams fair there are two people of every class in one group and your even allowed to form the teams by yourself.
Anyway is that enough for you I think that was the most important stuff."
„Oh wow... That's a lot to remember but I think I get it the only problem is I have no idea with who to group up."
„oh pretty much everyone from different classes don't know many people so you will be fine."
„I guess.."
They arrived at the school but before going around a corner akari quickly adds
„oh forgot to mention it but some events will be hosted by the third years I'm happy to see you later than."
„what!? Hey get back here!"
But before she could grab him he was already too far away.
‚this idiot'
Dushh
„GOOD MORNING ZURI~!"
serphina said while she jumped on zuri from behind.
„Ack- woah you surprised me."
„hehehe oh right just now was that your brother?!? He looks sooo cool I can't wait to meet him."
„ew maybe I think about it again.."
„fine anyway you don't have a problem with us paring up with Val right?"
„hm? Oh no of course not so I can be in your group that's great but we still need mine other people right?.."
„yea let's go the teachers hang out a board with everyones scores of the entrance exams so we can have an idea of who we want in our team even tho only the best have the privilege to chose."
„oh okay sure."
So the went there and read through the board
Until Zuri said
„lets see about the S class first if we get some good ones from there our team already has a good base."
As they look through the board serphina started screaming
„waahhh ZURI!! look at the first two places!!
Zuri didn't even imagined on recruiting the top 10 so she wasn't sure why she should look at it
Her eyes widened
First place: Erebus
Second place: Anpu
She couldn't believe it
Well but she didn't know them that well so they probably already got a bunch of group invites they didn't even stand a chance.
„hey shortcakes."
‚shortcakes? She new that nickname just like she new the voice... What did he want here? Make fun of her score?'
She was so lost in thoughts untill suddenly she notices something on her head
Erebus already approached her and started using her head as an headrest.
‚ugh this bitch-!'
Zuri thought but before she could say something she heared a second voice
„hey girls do you two already have a team?"
Both Zuri as well as serphi were stunned by that question
Did they want to group up with them? No way.
After some time of thinking Serphina started talking
„well we were planning to group up with my brother of class C but except of that we don't really have a team yet, why do you ask?"
„well we wanted to group up with the two of you we don't really know any of the other classes so we thought if it's a team test it would be better for us to team up with people we at least know."
„oh right. Um well if you guys want to we are all in of course."
While anpu and serphina were talking Erebus stared at the score board
„woa you are the best in class B"
„why do I feel like that's mocking when it comes from you."
„what? I would never~. So what are your strengths if were in a team I should at least know what you are good at and what not."
„oh and me? I'm not allowed to now your strengths?"
„well I'm pretty good at everything, I have full marks in everything."
„yea yea show off. Anyway I'm pretty bad at grammar and weight training. And if you ask about combat skills I'm a long distance weapon specialist and my close combat skills are just slightly above the average, when's about magic I'm good at magic circles."
„Oh~ I can work with that. what about your friends what are their strengths?"
„well serphis specialty is espionage, sabotage and infaltration. About Val I don't know much about him but I'm pretty sure he's good at stuff that has to do with IT."
„okay.. we're a pretty well balanced team.."
„mind telling me what yours and anpus specialtys are?"
„well my specialty is close combat and general attack magic and enchantments and his is the transportation as well as mind manipulation and magic spells. "
„Woa we really are well balanced but we still need seven more people."
„HEY ZURI!"
Sephina shouted
Zuri jumped up from the shock a bit and hit erberus chin
Which made him turn around in silence and shrug together in pain
„hm?! What??"
„we've been calling your several times now."
„oh really? I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention."
„your okay with it too, right? Us forming an team with them I mean."
„huh? Oh yea of course."
„so how do we recruit new people?"
For that anpu had the answer
„that won't be a problem since you got us now."
„..."
Suddenly he started shouting
„HEY ME AND EREBUS STILL NEED TWO PEOPLE OF CLASS A ONE PERSON OF CLASS C AND EACH TWO PEOPLE OF CLASS D AND E!"
both girls were a bit flusteredof the scream before suddenly a swarm of people came running to them
„US US! We are both from A!"
A girl screamed while dragging a guy after her
„okay what are your specialties?"
„mine is magic and his is close combat or the use of close combat techniques and weapons!"
„great your in! What are your names?"
„Mine is judis and his is Ryu."
„nice to meet you. I'm anpu, that's serphina, that's zuri, that's Erebus and that's valerus. Go up to them I'm sure you can introduce eachother further on your own."
Ok the other five spots that are left will be decided through who will react the fountain first.

„okay looks like our team is set let's head to the looker rooms after registering us.
They started walking
