A/N Hey guys, so our school closed today so I took this as an opportunity to update. Sorry for my last chapter. I had it longer but I guess it deleted it. I didn't realize it till after I posted it. I pisted me off. I wrote so much and it just deleted it. So I had to retype all of it. So sorry. I put an A/N of where I had it up to before it deleted it. Story time.
Max's POV
"Hello, you kids have all been selected to take part in some "special" tests. You have been put in groups by age. You will have to work together to beat the other groups. You will be tested on speed, endurance, smarts, style, and love. The groups are the elevens, the twelve's, the thirteen's, the fourteens, and the fifteens. Each group has five boys and five girls. The first test is on speed. You will be put in a dark corn maze with only candles as light. You will find your way out as fast as you can without running into the obstacles. The obstacles will cut, burn, electrocute, and sting you. If you're good, you will not run into them. The team last to emerge will be exterminated. Every test you will be allowed to wear what ever you like. This will show your personality. You will also be given sleeping quarters. Your family has been informed. They think you are at camp. Are you clear. Good. Let challenge one, commence." He grinned and then we were grabbed. They dragged all the teams in different directions. We were taken out a side door. The handed us candles and one umbrella.
"There's a chance it could rain." Then we were put on a platform like they have singers on when they're being brought up to the stage. They pressed a button and we were moving up. We were put into a maze with no lights, like he said. The candles we were given had no protection from the wax so Nudge was wining about being burned. We walked for about thirty minuet till we heard another team. (This is where I had it up to. It was a great cliff hanger but stupid computer.)
"Guys, what's he mean by exterminate?"
"I don't know sweaty, but I hope we don't find out." It seems like all the teams have formed together and become allies. "Listen, if we all stick together and emerge at the same time, we won't be exterminated. We just need to find the fifteens."
"We're right here," I said as I emerged from the dark. They smiled and explained their plan. All the forty other kids were together. Their plan was to stick as allies as best we can and then hopefully none of the teams will find out what they mean by exterminate. I just nodded along, but I'm sure that they won't let us get away with this. I'm sure at least one team will find out what exterminate means.
We walked for about ten minuets, till I heard a quiet crack. I turned my head in the direction and grabbed the leader. She looked shocked but screamed when she saw the sward pass right in front of her face. "Thanks, how did you know that was there?"
"I heard the crack and so I grabbed you. I mean we're allies, right, we stick together." She gave a small nod and then told me to lead just in case something like that happened again, I could here it.
No Ones POV
"This isn't good."
"Yes I know, I didn't expect them to pair up and work together. We need away to get them a part. But how?" The two men sat there and pondered on this for about ten minuets. "I know, we can try to kill one of the kids, the teams will blame each other and do the dirty work for us." The other man nodded and pressed a button. They watched as the heard the crack. The blonde fifteen gave a questioning look and then lunged at the thirteen, Aria. (RenegadeChyld)She grabbed her shoulder and pulled back right as the sword passed the thirteen's face. She screamed and then thanked her.
"This won't work. That girl is too clever..."
"And to motherly and protective." The man interrupted. "There's got to be another way to get to them. I mean come on, we have to make this the top show in the world. Everyone will want to see it."
"Yes, I know. But if we don't do something soon, we won't get that wish." They sat back and watched the screen. The kids should be out of the maze soon. The blonde was really smart and was able to lead them to where the exit was and still avoid all the obstacles. They needed to do something. She was to good. They had to get rid of someone. They had to get rid of her.
The group emerged from the exit as one. They looked exhausted and collapsed. The men got up and walked to where the kids were. They stood in front of them and frowned. "Now that was smart to team up but now you have to do another challenge today, to see who get exterminated. You normally only have a challenge a day but we don't have a loser so..." The man let the sentence hang. The kids had frightened looks on their faces. They nodded and stood up.
Switch to Ride house (No Ones POV)
"UH, where are they. I swear Max, Maya, and Ella are so grou... OUCH"
"What is it sweetie?"
"Nothing, just a little pain." Valencia stood up and walked to the phone. She dialed Max's cell number. It rang for about five minuets before she finally hung up. She tried the other numbers but the same thing happened. "I swear, what's the point of giving and paying for phones if they won't even bother to use them." Her husband, Jeb, walked up next to her and rubbed circles on her back.
"Mommy, Daddy, where's Sissys." Zack walked down the stairs rubbing his eyes. He was in his teenage mutant ninja turtles pajamas.
"They'll be home soon bud, go back to bed." Jeb picked Zack up and carried him up to his room. After tucking him in he walked back downstairs. The phone rang and he picked it up.
(Man, Jeb)
Hello
Hi, I'm just calling to say that you daughters are fine. We have picked them up and they are at a camp. I hope you're okay with this. I know you signed them up for summer camp but the camp was also running now and T.V. producers have decided to record everything. They will be in wonderful hands. Nothing to worry about. They will be here for about two to three months. Don't worry about clothes. They've been given wardrobe. The show will air tomorrow. At 6 pm. It's called No parents, No rules. They will compete against other age groups in test and the only rule is there will only be one winner in the end.
Thank you. We will be watching it. Have a good night.
You too. Bye
Bye
He hung up the phone and told his wife everything. She sighed in relief. They smiled and turned on the T.V. to set the show to record. They got a call from other parents and they all agreed to watch together. They smiled and walked up to their room. They got ready for bed and turned out the light. They couldn't wait to see their kids on T.V. But what they didn't was that he really meant only one will win.
A/N So how was it. I'm sorry I left you not knowing what happened to the teams and what the next challenge is. I wanted a cliffy because last chapter sucked. I decided to write what you reviewed because I also think it helps.
Silent516 - Jeb. It's Jeb. It's totally Jeb. I'm 100% sure it's Jeb. I'm a genius I know. Did I make it clear that I think it's Jeb? AND BOO SUMMER! WINTER FOR THE WIN(Ter)! I have a deep hatred of Summer.
P.S. Usually, when you have something about me reviewing, I have to go back and check what I said in my last review cause I have terrible memory. XD. - Well I don't know if it's Jeb, it could be. Still deciding. Sorry I didn't realize that I should write the reviews. I guess it does help. This way you don't have to go back and forth. And trust me, I know how you feel so ya.
CaptainDixy28 - awww update soon I want to see why they were there. n I really liked the chapter. - Thx, Now you sort-of know why they are there. There's more reasoning behind why they're there. But you probably won't find out for a while. I like to keep you guys upset, because it makes you want to read to find out.
FireStar - Three days grace agh! - I went back and reread chapter 6. I was confused on your review. If you want me to hear this band, I already have, and I love them. If you want me to put in one of their songs, can do. Please clarify.
Okay so ya. Though this whole writing, I've been listening to Survive This, Escape the Fate, falling in Reverse, Story of the Year, Bring me the Horizon and Iwrestledabearonce. If you listen to any of these, review. Also, if you have any suggestions, review. I highly suggest you listen to these bands.
PS: Winter wins, because someone posted winter and I love winter. I can dress in layers if I'm cold and not in layers if I'm hot. Also, SNOW and NO SCHOOL. Plus I don't have to wear a bikini. And I know you guys will say "you don't have to wear it," but it's the only swim suit I have. Plus it's bright green and I wear swim shorts so it doesn't bug me as much. Okay, if you actually read these A/N post the saying "Live or Die" in your review. I love that saying. Okay, converse or vans. :")
PPS: Sorry for the long A/N
