After Cedric vanished things became hectic. Kids were pushing other students out of the way to desperately find a team.
Eram and his group quickly walked to the outside and then to the front to not get trampled. Alexander had tears in his eyes.
" Someone please carry me!"
Michael laughed and picked him up. Alexander teary eyed began to giggle.
" Thanks for carrying me Michael, I'll never forget this, I'll cherish this memory till the day I die!"
Michael dropped him like a brick. staring down at the monster that lay before him.
" Hey, what was that for?"
Michael looked in confusion at the kid, who said something stupid. He squinted his eyes.
" I promise I am never helping you again, after you just hit me with that information,"
"You hate me because I'm short you mon…!"
Once again another punch from Lila shut Alexander up
" Sorry for his poor behavior, I should've beat on him more before we got here."
Michael listened to her natural-sounding apology and shivered.
"No need, I'm sorry."
Lila gave him a puzzled look when he apologized. The group continued to the front, giggling at Alexander's antics. Alex smiled seeing Lila so happy.
"I wonder what the group that is at the front's abilities are?"
Eram Shivered while pointing at Kalla.
" I know two of their abilities. She can make a thing called a dimensional sphere or something, and it attacks whatever gets inside. She cut my arm off and it hurt like hell."
Yuki's mouth dropped open. She took a deep breath and then spoke.
" What? You had your arm cut off?"
"Yeah, though it didn't hurt nearly as bad as when I broke a bunch of my bones when I was hit by some creature the day before."
Eram shuddered while looking at his stomach.
"Next in the middle, there is Gunther. He can control gravity I think. I'm not too sure why the talent agent was so amazed, but he said he had a cool ability or something."
Yuki decided took another deep breath, then pointed at the Ryker, the man next to Kalla
"Besides the fact that you have had your arm cut off. I can tell that the one right next to Kalla is strong. I forgot to mention I can sense stronger or weaker people in my vicinity, and he is just about as strong as Eram and Michael, maybe a little stronger."
Michaels eyebrows raised in surprise. Thinking for a second, Michael shrugged.
" Would y'all like to meet them?"
Alexander let his smile cover his face, laughing nervously.
"Haha of course we would!"
Lila grabbed Alexanders arms with enough of a grip to keep him from talking. Once they got up to the stage the Ryker walked in front of the group, Staring daggers at each of the foes in front of him.
" What do you want?"
Eram was taken aback, he furrowed his brows while looking at the rude man.
"What's your deal? We just came up here to see what's up and greet y'all"
Ryker took a deep breath while closing his eyes. His eyes softened.
" Sorry I just come from a rough neighborhood, I'm not adjusted to the culture. My name is Ryker Sable and these are my party members. Kalla Fenn, Gunther Revver, Ren Halloway, and lastly Taylor Willow, mind introducing yourselves?"
Eram stepped forward, looking Ryker in the eyes.
"Sorry, My name is Eram Shibo, this is Lila Raine, Alexander Greene, Michael Caldwell, and lastly for us is Yuki Kazumi."
He pointed at each one of the group to help match names to faces. Ryker looked sorry then reached out a hand
"Well, if there are ever any competitions just know I will win, I need a rival,"
Right before Eram returned a handshake Taylor yelled out.
"Hey, you mean we need rival… stop excluding me, or I mean us!"
Seeing himself being partially excluded Red shouted out.
"Yeah Ryker, you need to include us, or we're going to attack you…!"
As Ren talked, Taylor spun around, delivering an express knuckle sandwich.
"W…W… Why Taylor why…"
Ren looked at Taylor in tears, causing everyone to laugh hard, but none as hard as Alexander.
" It's not just me that suffers through this misery! Mmph"
Lila gave him the old one, two. She then glared daggers at him while she rubbed her foot in his back.
"Misery? You go through misery?"
Alexander smiled while looking at his compatriot on the ground.
"No ma'am, I'm sorry for slandering your blessings,"
A bell rang and Principal Thorn appeared back on the podium while seeing the teens act goofy, he smiled.
"Looking around, I see that everyone found a team. There should have been the exact number and it seems there is."
The students who were now on the stage realized everyone had been watching them the whole time, curled back in embarrassment. Cedric looked back at the crowd continuing.
"With this we will begin giving out dorms based on teams that were made. At lunch we will hand out schedules as well."
Everyone got excited and started talking again. Cedric whispered.
" Silence."
The entire student body of close to twenty thousand immediately got quite.
We will have one group of teachers who will go through and give everyone cards with numbers on them. Next we will have another set of staff guide you too your room."
After Cedric finished talking he vanished and about 50 staff members started to walk through the crowd asking for names and who all was on their teams.
It was taking a while so Eram and Kalla's team were looking at all of the teachers wondering who was going where, and how they were going to be assigned. They started to chat until mark appeared.
"Hey, Eram, Kalla, and Gunther seems you all didn't team up."
Gunther yelled.
"Yeah cause this loser told me no!"
"Haha well that's ok. It seems he has found him some good friends, anyways here are the dorm numbers for you guys."
Mark was about to walk off but turned around.
"Oh, and Boys do not try to spend the night in the girl's dorms you will be punished harshly. On another note, food will be served in an hour. Cedric will be back in a bit so please stay put."
Mark said and then he went off to give more students their dorm, cards.
After he mentioned the food all of the student's stomachs started to growl, though none were worse than Lila's.
"Damn, I'm fucking hungry."
Taylor looked at her new bestie, while her stomach grumbled just as badly.
"I know right."
"Keeping Ren in check takes a toll on me."
"Same, Alexander drains my hunger. I like you, we're going to get along great!"
Lila and Taylor were getting along causing every boy there to shiver in fear.
The group then started up an interrogation on Michael. They were all interested in hearing about the royal life and how much he had it better than them;.
Cedric appeared out of nowhere and shocked the group causing Michael to stumble.
"Ok, students I have gathered most of the staff to assist with guiding everyone to their dorms."
Cedric vanished and then about 500 more staff members appeared around where everyone was at.
The girl that appeared in Eram's and Ryker's group smiled.
" Hello everyone my name is Seraphina and I will guide you to your dorms. Please walk calmly and follow me. I was also told to inform you in 5 months we will hold a tournament. Anyone who places in the brackets will get a special reward. with all of that said follow me."
