Chapter 6: The Ultimate Trial: Part 3
Everyone sat down on their seats in the live lottery hosted by the boys themselves. Nasher was the host while the rest of the boys were standing beside him.
The Guardian Ninjas arrived as well and took their seats.
"Here we are" said Will, taking her seat. "Let's just hope we're lucky to get picked"
"Welcome ladies to the live lottery!" announced Nasher in a cheery voice. "Tonight, five of you will win the chance to become OUR dates for the school dance!" He pointed a finger towards the curtains. "And here are your boys for tonight! First up is Rah-Rah!"
Everyone screamed as Rah-Rah entered from the curtains. Rah-Rah posed in front of the girls, smiling at them.
"He's mine" whispered Irma, excited.
"Shhh!" said Taranee, putting her finger to her lips.
"And the lucky girl who is going with Rah-Rah is…" Nasher put his hand into a glass ball with all of the girls' names on and rumbled around in it. He then picked up a piece of paper and went back to the microphone. He then said the name in a clear voice: "Melissa Smith!"
Melissa screamed and raced onto the stage into Rah-Rah's arms.
"Thank you so much!" she squealed. "I never thought I would finally get a chance!" she kissed Rah-Rah right on the check.
"WOW" moaned Irma. "That girl is so bad herself. I wish I WAS that girl"
"Lucky for you we've still got 4 left" explained Hay Lin, trying to be on the positive side.
But unfortunately their luck wasn't enough. Darmon got Holly Brown. Cromo got Beth McCann and Shalin got Penelope Walters.
"This sucks" moaned Irma, getting up from her seat. "Let's go"
"No, Irma" said Will, grabbing Irma's hand. "We need to find out what is going on"
"Ok" moaned Irma. "I'll go with you"
Inside his hole, Cedric was having a chat with the Runcis about something.
"What's that?" asked Cedric. "You've found five girls already?"
"Yep" replied Nasher. "Now all we're going to do is to capture them on the night on the school dance so that could can destroy them!"
Cedric was impressed. "Excellent!" he roared. "I can escape from this hole for good now!"
"Um, Father" asked Darmon. "What will happen to us if you escape?"
"You are going to replace me in this hole instead!" laughed Cedric.
"WHAT? No!" cried Cromo.
"We can't do that!" wailed Shalin. "We'll just crumble to death!"
"I AM YOUR FATHER!" Cedric shouted at them. "AND YOU'LL DO WHAT I SAY!"
Nasher walked up to Cedric. "Father" he said firmly. "You don't understand what we want: Love" He then walked away with the other Runics.
Cedric huffed. "Well then" he said. "If you don't understand my orders, I'll do it my way" He went back to swirling his magic before he could even go into an anger problem.
