Chapter 23 - 23: Sacrifice

Then the power went out. The people in the hall started to panic again, but this time, the security guards kept everyone in order. After 5 minutes, "We're sure, it's just a temporary-" Then the power returned. Then the banging continued, and this time, the door caved in.

6 girls in robes strutted as the security guards shot their tasers. One girl, with one swing of her scythe, killed all of them. "Greeting students," She announced as she strutted onto the stage, "We seek one thing- No, two things and two things only. Thomas Dale-"

They announced, Thomas stood up and yelled, "You ain't getting nothing. You came all the way out here, just to lose to a National Finalist." People cheered on Thomas as with a flick of his wrist, three of the cultists were knocked out. The remaining two were barely conscious as the final one, with the scythe, just laughed.

"Do I look weak to you?" The cultist said, damn near insulted; after a long spectacular fight, where the cultist was losing, Ben walked in, and Vince walked in. She smiled, "Perfect!" She pulled out a bomb with a grin, "You!" She yelled at Ben, Ben got ready to leap up but the bomb stopped him.

"Stop!" She yelled, "I came here for Ben Voll and Thomas Dale but Ben will suffice." She said with a laugh, an evil laugh, "In the time between the bomb going off and you setting it, I could have already disarmed it." Thomas said confidently and he was about to charge in when Ben grabbed his arm.

"No. There's no guarantee that the second the bomb is on a timer. It could be the second it leaves her hand." Ben turned back to look at the Cultist, "I will go if you promise that you let everyone leave." She smirked as she gestured for him to come over.

"Good boy." She grabbed him and disappeared.
