Everyone was anxious .
Suddenly a loud echoing voice started speaking.
" good morning everyone, please begin to prepare yourselfs, a uniform shall be transported to your rooms right after this announcement, you are all required to put it on. And also take along the weapon given to you before. Also, no need of moving out of the building, thirty minutes from now, you shall be transported directly to the base where the selection shall commence. Thank you, and good luck."
Derkile Heart began to beat faster, the selection had began...
Derkile, was still for some time, he didn't know what to do next. He was sure other people had heared the message and was already preparing. Suddenly a bright light emmited from his back and when it settled, a piece of cloth appeared, it was the uniform they were to wear.
It was a dark blue shirt with matching trousers. There was also a pair of old boots near it. Derkile quickly put it on, and it fit perfectly. He guessed they used magic to know their exact size.
He then picked up his weapon from where he had left it. His heart was beating really fast, he had a feeling this new found powers he got, might not help him at all in this selection.
He didn't know why, but he kept on having this feeling. He just wished he passed the selection, and quickly become a soilder.
While Derkile was thinking about all this, someone knocked at the door. He immediately knew who this person was...
" Hello Derkile, are you there? ".
Bane asked, standing in front of the door to Derkile's room. Immediately he had headed the announcement, and had worn his uniform, he rushed to Derkile's room. His heart beat raced faster, as he was very excited. He kept on knocking the door, until Derkile finally opened it.
" woah Bane, you really look good in your uniform "
Derkile said, as he admired his friend in his stunning look. Bane was perfectly fit in his uniform, he even seemed to wear a different boot from the one given to them. He looked quite
Handsome.
' This guy is quite the good looking fella'
Derkile thought, as he stared at him. The only thing that didn't complete Bane's perfectness, was his height. Derkile wished his friend was just a little bit taller....
" why are you looking at me like that?"
Bane asked, curious about why the lad was staring at him. He looked at his uniform, but it looked fine, so why was Derkile staring at him like that.
" nothing, just thinking about something"
He replied.
" talk less of thinking, aren't you excited that Today is the selection, and we could be transported away to the field few minutes from now".
" well, yeah I am excited, but I am also concerned, what if we don't make it. I have a feeling, its going to be harder than we think"
Derkile said, his face changed to that of a worried person.
" just don't worry, have faith, and if you are truly worthy, which you are. You will pass the selection and become the best of the bests!!!"
Bane said, with a bright smile on his face. Derkile felt a little better, the two of them smiling at themselves, when suddenly, they were surrounded by glowing Magic rings that came out of nowhere. And the light from the rings got brighter and brighter until the light consumed them both...
When the light settled down, both Derkile and Bane, along with the other people, found them selves in a large empty field, the ground was sandy and it looked as if they were in a desert.
" I think we are here Derkile"
Bane didn't expect them to be quickly teleported, it felt like he forgot something...
" oh damn!!, I forgot to hold my Weapon along"
But to his sudden surprise, his weapon was right by his side. It seems like, they also transported their weapons in case they weren't holding it when they we're teleported.
The field was coloured green, and there was a raised platform in front of them. Suddenly people began to come out of the platform, and at the same time, strange devices began to appear out of thin air, probably through the help of magic.
A man then walked forward on the platform, as he was about to address them .
" You are all welcome to the field of this year selection. Hope you are all well prepared, as this is going to be tougher than you can ever think...."
Derkile gulped .
