here you go lol the next chapter :)


Chapter 8

Drew looked at Benji and pulled back his fist to punch the living day lights out of him. "Back off!" He punched Benji in the jaw and Benji fell back letting go of the blade.

Drew, having controll over his blade now, pulled up Benji by his collar and cut his shirt, hoping to set it aflame. But Drew was dissappointed when he saw that his blade was no longer flaming. The struggle had blown it out.

Benji pushed out of Drew's grip and backed away. "You wouldn't really kill me, would you?" Benji asked, believing he actually would.

"Get over here!" Drew shouted, getting his blade ready to strike.


May sat down in a seat by Dawn and Misty. The aditorium was dimly lit. A man, May reconized as Mr. Vex, sat on a chair on stage, waiting for the chairs to fill up with the 32 girls.

"I wonder how the boys are doing?" Dawn wondered aloud.

"I'm sure they're having a blast punching each other in the face." Misty sighed.

"I'm worried about Drew." May said.

"You are?" Misty and Dawn said in union.

"Well, no. What I meant was, 'I'm worried about the guy he's fighting.'" May clearified.

"Attention." Mr. Vex announced. "Attention." He stood and looked up and all the girls looked up at him. "There is a pocket attachted to the back of the seat in front of you. In the pocket is a stack of papers stapled together. Look over it if you like. It is your first test."

May took the stack of papers and looked at it.

'Name?, Date?, Age?, If you were stranded in the middle of a dessert and only had three canteens of water and a friend who had no water--' As May read her eyes criss crossed in confussion.

"You have ten minutes to answer as many questions as possible. The ones with the lowest scores will be out." Mr. Vex said. "Cheaters will be out. And I will have you know, we do not like cheaters." Mr. Vex sat back down and took out a pocket watch. "Begin."

May took a pencil she found in the chair pouch. During the ten minutes she answered all of the easy questions. Some consisted of Math, First Aid, History, Science, What if, and Personal queastions like birth date and favorite color. She enjoyed reading the first aid stories but they became to long and she was afraid that she would not finish in time so she skimmed. She hoped that she got most of the answers right even thought she skimmed some of it--

There was a loud bullhorn noise and everyone screamed, covering their ears. May watched as a girl was forcably removed from the room.

Mr. Vex sighed. "Cheater." And sat back down.

May quivered and kept her eyes on her paper.

When time was up he asked that all the papers were handed up front. Mr. Vex gathered them and gave them to another man. That man took them away to be graded.

Then a large screen came down behind Mr. Vex.

"Now inside that pocket is a remote control with two buttons on it. Yes/True and No/False. I will be showing you a series of video clips and images and sound clips. If you get one wrong then you will be removed from this school. We shall go on until there are twenty girls in this room."

May felt sick to her stomach. She stared ahead and watched the first image come up onto the screen. The image of a broken bone jutting out of someones leg. May almost fainted but kept her cool and looked away waiting for the question. Some other girl got up and quickly ran out screaming.

May took a deep breath. "I can do this."


Drew was shoved into the wall. His head hit the wall and he felt something crack in his skull. Drew quickly turned around though, as Blane was going to ram into his back, and Drew moved out of the way. Blane hit the way and fell to the ground. As Drew was about to kick Blane while he was on the ground, Benji came up and jumped on Drew's back, wrapping his arm around Drew's neck, choking him.

Drew turned so that his back faced the wall and he ran back, slamming Benji against the wall to get him off his back. After three hits, Benji let go and slid down the wall.

Blood started to trickle out the corners of Drew's mouth and ooze from his head. Benji's spine was completely bruised up. Blane's vision was blurry and his left arm had no feeling in it. But Drew stood there starring down Benji, still willing to fight. And Benji groaned as he stood up but scowled at Drew, ready to defend himself to the end. Blane stood, supporting himself against the wall and, breathing heavy, looked at Drew, ready to kill him at any second.

Just as they were about to begin another fight, the announcer stopped them.

'We have twenty four winners! Cease fighting!'

They looked around and saw the bloody mess. The guys who were the winners were standing about ready to fall. The losers were laying on the ground, unable to move. Benji looked up at the clock on the wall. They had been in this blood bath for three hours and he shuddered. He didn't think he would have made it when he knocked Drew off of Blane. He made it thought. He hoped Dawn had made it also.

'The girls will be back now. If you see your partner walk through the door then that means you get to stay for now. There are twenty-four winners of boys but only twenty winners of girls. Four of you winners will have to leave with your partners.'

"Hell no." Drew growled and looked over at the Gym door as it opened and, in single file line, the girls entered.

When the girls, one by one, saw what the gym looked like and all the blood and bodies, they gasped and quickly ran to find their partner.

Benji watched the crowd of girls, looking for Dawn specifically.

Then he saw her come in and he smiled. "Dawn." He whipsered. He slumped to the ground as she ran up to him and she dropped to her knees beside him.

"Oh my God! Benji!" Dawn cupped his face and looked at the cuts and bruises all over him. "Benji!" She wrapped her arms around him and Benji blushed, leaning his head against her shoulder as she hugged him.

"I'm okay. Just tired." He said softly.

Dawn pulled back to lean him against the wall so he could rest, but once his back touched the wall, his mind clicked in that his spine was bruised badly and he yelled out lungding forward back into her arms. Dawn let him rest his head against her shoulder again.

Misty was the next to come in. She looked around and when she saw Blane she came up to him.

"Are you okay, Blane?" She said, worried as he stood there, holding his limp arm.

"Never better." He grinned, trying to see her but his vision was too blurry.

Misty touched his arm. "You're whole arm is bruised over!"

"I can't feel a thing." He shrugged it off. "You should see the other guys."

Misty scowled. "This isn't a joke, Blane. You're seriously hurt."

Blane's grinned went soft and he smiled gently down at her. "I know." He said quietly. "But don't worry, Misty. I'll be okay."

Drew watched the two and looked back at the door waiting for May to come in. "Where the hell are you?" He mummbled. He walked to the line of girls coming in and pushed past them. 'Is she in the back of the friggen line?!' he thought, angrily. He pushed after one girl and another until he saw the girl with blue eyes. She looked up at Drew and covered her mouth.

"Drew!?" May gasped horrified at the blood running down his face.

Drew looked down at her, scowling. Inside he was glad she had made it, which means he wont be sent home. He turned away from her and expected her to follow him as he walked back into the gym. May ran up to his side and looked at Drew, worriedly.

"Are you--"

"Fine."

"You're bleed--"

"Shut up."

May looked ahead again and sighed. Then May stopped and stomped her foot. Drew stopped and glared at her.

May looked up at Drew and all of the sudden she slapped him right across the face. May was tired of being treated like this. She never let anyone treat her like it before. Why should she let him treat her this way?--

Drew was frozen for a moment, stunned. Then he grabbed her shirt and pulled her close, pulling back his fist ready to punch her.

--Oh that's right, he could kill her.

May flinched and whimpered, shutting her eyes tightly when he pull back his arm. She was afraid to feel the blow any second. But it never came. She opened her eyes after awhile and saw him stand there still ready to hit her but he didn't move. He still looked angry.

"Don't ever do that again." He growled and let her go, shoving her back. He walked away again and May wiped a few tears from her eyes. Her hands were shaking.
