Raquel POV:

It was seven am when I finally woke up from my deep sleep. I was about to get up when I saw Nadia's leg on my face, and her arms holding my hands. I cautiously moved her legs out of my face, making sure I didn't wake her up. I was planning to leave for 25 Challenges before she woke up, so I wouldn't have to go through a whole morning of whining, arguing, and begging me to stay. She flinched for a second, moving her body away from me, and I took this as an opportunity to get up from my bed and get ready.

I opened my door to see Mrs Moore giving me an angry look. She looked tired, bags under her eyes more than usual, her dagger eyes staring at me intensely."Yes?" I gave her a fake smile.

"Nadia's not in her room. You haven't seen her have you?" She raised her eyebrows.

I rolled my eyes."She's not a criminal, you know? You don't have to check up on her every second." I pulled my door back so she could see Nadia peacefully hidden under the covers. "She's perfectly fine."

She looked me up and down and frowned. "Very well then..Oh, and your flight leaves in an hour." She walked down the hallway making a click with her heels.

I shut my door and started to get ready. I put on a cheetah print t-shirt with black tights and brown combat boots. I put my hair up in a high ponytail and left my face bare, with nothing more than lip gloss.

I walked up to where Nadia was sleeping and placed a kiss on her forehead. "Bye." I whispered into her ears as I stood up and walked downstairs and out of the door to see a car waiting for me. I got in the car, leaving the most important person to me in that dump. I better win this game.


Cecelia POV:

"Cecelia?"Chandler called out as he knocked on my bedroom door. Jeffrey was my butler for two years and we were fairly close.

"Come in!" I was on my bedroom floor coordinating my clothes. Chandler took a small step as he gave me a polite nod.

"Your mother said she was sorry for the way she acted yesterday night, and to make up for it, she wanted to know if you would accept an all day shopping trip." He told me as he gave me a small smile.

Ha. I knew it. There was no way my mother was going to make me go to 25 Challenges. She was too sweet.

I smirked."Sure. I'm free now..shall we go?" I skipped down the stairs nearly tripping in my high heels, as I heard a small chuckle from Chandler. I scowled at him as I opened the door and made my way to the car.

After thirty minutes of Jeffrey driving, something didn't seem right. The trees that we passed by didn't look familiar. The roads were different. "Hey, Chandler, are you sure this is the right way to the mall?"

He bit his lip."Actually Cecelia..." He scratched the back of his head."Were not going to the mall."

I gave him a confused look."What do yo-" My eyes widened."Please don't tell me were going to 25 Challenges!" My voice began to shake.

He gave me an apologetic look."It was a request from your mother. This was the only way."

I started banging on the car window. "I can't go to that place! I'm too weak!"

"I'm sorry Cecelia..Its for the best. Maybe when you come back, you will know how to value money." He stopped the car.

I looked out of my window to see an airplane with 25 Challenges written in big bold red letters across it."How could you?"

"I am deeply sorry Cecelia." He got out of the car and opened the car door for me. "What about my stuff?" I asked him.

"Right here." He brought out my pink suitcase which had CeCe engraved with white rhinestone's. I took it from him without saying a word and just stared at him. It was finally hitting me. My mother wasn't lying.

"Goodbye. Ill be rooting for you." He placed his arm on my shoulder.

I shrugged it off and walked off with my suitcase in my hand and my heels trying to keep balance. Ill be lucky if I even get through challenge one.


Gunther (Noah) POV:

Sam and Ryan barged in my room and gave me a sly smile." So? You mastered Gunther's personality yet?"

I nodded slowly." I think so.." I had been up all night trying to memorize Gunther's personality, attitude and accent.

Ryan grinned."Show us."

I gulped." My name is Gunther Hessenheffer, I am from a small mountain country in Europe, and I have a twin sister." I said in my given accent. "How was that?" I asked them as my voice went back to normal.

They hesitantly replied."Meh...could be better, but we haven't got time to loose. Your car is waiting for you outside." I stood up and walked to the door as they unlocked it with a key."Now remember, whatever happens, do not, I repeat, do not reveal who you are." They gave me a stern look as they let me go.

I nodded as I exited the room. I took a whiff of the fresh air all around me. I didn't feel strangled anymore. I felt like a normal person again.

I entered the car and put my belongings besides me. I was either coming back with one million dollars and freedom, or nothing.

...

The flight to the arena was pretty quite. No one said a word. Everyone was too busy worrying about who to watch out for and how they were going to play this game.

I looked out of my window to see white fluffy clouds forming as we got higher and higher into the air.

"This game is completely stupid and filled with complete weirdo's!" I turned my head to see a red head whining and complaining. She looked in my direction and frowned."What are you looking at?" I put my hand up in defense and turned the other way. She reminded me of someone. Someone I knew before I was kidnapped. I just couldn't put my finger on it.


Raquel POV:

"If this game is completely stupid then why are you even here?" A brunette haired girl with tanned skin and freckles shouted out. She had an Australian accent and seemed to loathe the red head.

The red head who was complaining looked at her."My mum made me.I ne-"

"So you have people who actually need the money and your excuse is my mum made me?" A blonde haired girl with brunette highlights looked at the red head with red head just rolled her eyes and slumped down on her seat.

"Spoilt brat." The girl with an Australian accent said under her breath. I snickered at that. Ah.. people can be so mean...Maybe Ill talk to the red head later.

"ALRIGHT! So first of all I would like to say a huge welcome to all of you wonderful contestants to 25 Challenges!" Shouted Jonas Daniels, the host for the show. Since I watched 25 Challenges, he had always seemed a bit too full of himself. He walked up the aisle and showed a big grin. No one said a word, but just stared at him like he was mentally insane."Tough crowd." He muttered under his breath.

Another woman came up to him."Give them a week. They'll be crying when someone leaves." She whispered into his ears. I don't think so. I don't know about the others but if someone leaves, It only means I'm closer to winning that money.

"Anyways, we are here to tell me your team and the rules and regulations of this game." Jackie Hills, an executive producer butted in."There shall be no interacting with the opposing teams. Any form of contact will lead to disqualification." They were pretty strict about this, last year, a girl was disqualified because she was caught talking to another rest of the rules were just the normal stuff anyone would say like no fighting, blah blah blah.

"And finally, your team mates." Jonas said. I bit my lip. My time in this game all depended on what team mates I got."The red team consists of Nastasia, Coralie, Tinka, and Chasity." He threw them each a red bandanna with 25 Challenges written on it. I looked at all of them and they seemed pretty satisfied with their group." Next group, the yellow team consists of Bo, Delilah and Raquel." He then gave us each a yellow bandanna.

I looked at my group. So that girl with the Australian accent's name is Bo; and that girl who insulted the red head's name is Delilah. Looks like I have a group of rebels. Wait. I only have two people in my group and the other group has four.."What about the red head..? What team is she on?" She surely can't be on the boys team and the yellow team was one player down.

"Ah, yes. She gets to decide what team she goes on, the yellow team or the red team." Explained Jonas. Everyone went quite and the red head gave a small smirk.

"So what your telling me is..the red team could have five players and the yellow team would have three?" This was totally unfair.

"Precisely,So Cecelia, what team would you like?" Said Jason.

I sulked. Bo and Delilah had already bad mouthed her so of course she would go with the red team. Way to go guys.


Sooo..how was it? R+R!

Next chapter will be about the first challenge and them getting to know each other.. And how are they supposed to fall in love if they cant even talk to each other? Where does Gunther remember CeCe from and will it affect his game play? What team does CeCe pick? You'll have to find out in the next few chapters!

Goodbye my lovely readers :) -
