(Thanks to zackt2010, Zac-MentosGoboom, Zro-kemuri 9t6, jamess, mortalstandards, Lance-Dusk, and Can't Get Any Better. Okay, a couple of things. First off, just to clarify, all these black demons with red eyes are just that. The generals actually look like their counterparts as such. Also, I made a rather big mistake in that I said 16 destined. It is, in fact, 14 for the moment. Lastly, if you want to watch the movies, go ahead, but you shouldn't need to with my AWESOME Characterization of them... hopefully lol. Anywho, read on!)
"COME BACK HERE MAX!" Mila roared, as the blur which was a brother sped around the sanctuary, weaving easily in and out of people and things, even running along the roof and walls. "Don't make me use it!" Mila threatened, crossing her arms.
"You can't catch me!" Max said as he sped past her, when he suddenly lost balance and went careering into the wall, back first. "Ouch..." Max massaged his back. "There was no need for that sis."
Mila stared at Max sternly and put her hands on her hips. "You know not to use your ability in here."
"But sis, having super speed is awesome!" Max pouted. "And what about you, you just used your telekinesis."
"Yes. To stop you." Mila left it at that, and went to find a drink. As she walked through the room, she just narrowly stopped a knife from hitting her in the eye. She stared evilly at Conner, before walking to Rain, who was also where the drinks were."Hey Rain."
"Good morning Mila... If you can tell in this place." Rain said, letting water push itself from the bottle and into her cup. She nodded to Mila, before walking away to her book she had found was actually quite good.
At the over end of the room, Riley was trying to manipulate air into her palm, but was failing. Miserably. She grunted in anger and she shot a flame ball at the wall, which suddenly hit something and a cry of pain was heard.
"Ow! Shit, fuck..." Damian suddenly appeared, patting his chest, which was on fire. "Watch where your shooting that thing Riley."
"It would help if you weren't invisible." Riley replied, sending a weak fireball in his direction to irritate him. He scowled, and quickly turned invisible again.
"Step forward." Leslie said mildly as he walked past, patting her on the shoulder, and Riley complied. A grunt was heard, and Damian appeared again, sprawled on the ground.
"Hey! You can't do that." He complained.
"Sorry." Leslie shrugged, but didn't seem to stupid. "I don't want you misusing your powers." He walked forward, and saw a giant diamond standing in the corner, the light glittering off of it. "Hey, nice work Alex."
"Thanks." Alex appeared from behind the diamond, his hand encased in it.
"No worries." Leslie nodded and walked towards the beds, in which Tally was sitting quietly, reading a book about Jack the Ripper that William had managed to get a hold of. He quietly sat next to her and opened his mouth.
"Hello, Leslie." Tally replied, not turning his way. "And yes, I'm fine. This book is about Jack the Ripper, and no, you can't look at it"
Leslie blinked multiple times, and stood up. "Fair enough."
LINE BREAK
Outside the main door of the sanctuary in the corridor, Zeke was panting, sweat poured down his face. Victor sat frozen against the wall looking rather irritated while Paige nodded. "Good work Zeke."
Zeke replied by forming a pole in front of him from ice, and going to swing it at Paige, but she kicked upwards, breaking it in two.
"Ah, good, surprise attack, I like that. But for now, let's go in. You don't want to die from over exertion." Zack nodded quietly, and left to the sanctuary, Paige following.
"Hey! Guys!" Victor called out as they closed the doors. "Oh. Just great."
"What are you doing?"
Victor turned his head to William and Jeffrey, who were walking up. Jeffrey had a nasty gash on his cheek, while William's sleeve was ripped. "Oh, just hanging around." Victor said sarcastically. "Now, why are you injured?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Jeffrey replied. "Just got caught up with a good ol' hell hyena. Those claws do hurt, I hafta say." Jeffrey walked over to Victor, and slammed his elbow into the ice, shattering it. Victor nodded his thanks, clutching his chest and shivering. "I believe William has decided we are to go soon. Let us go."
LINE BREAK
"Everyone, stop." William's voice rang out in the sanctuary, and everything became quiet and silent, all movement stopped. "As you know, today is the day. But before I talk about that, I just want to congratulate all of you for your brief two month training. You have done a lot a little a time."
"So, are we going yeah?" Max asked, shaking really fast with anticipation.,
"Indeed. I will give you ten minutes to gather anything you need, possession wise. You do not need food, however a bottle of water each would likely be a good idea." William stood patiently as everyone started to get ready.
LINE BREAK
Ten minutes later, everyone stood ready and packed, standing in front of William. Some were excited, such as Max and Conner, some were nervous, like Riley and Damian. And some were determined, such as Zeke and Paige.
"Two months ago, I explained who Death's chosen ten were, and I explained that John "Jigsaw" Kramer is our first target. Now I am sure that we will somehow end up in his malicious traps, but do not worry. You may somehow mutilate yourself, but you WILL be able to pass your tests with enough determination, and maybe, to some of you, with the help of your powers. Jigsaw is located in a city north of here, around ten miles away."
"And how are we getting there?" Damian asked.
William left the question standing, and simply said "Follow me" before sliding the door open and then pulling a brick from the wall. After that, a few more bricks fell until a sizable hole appeared at the bottom. "Just so you didn't get any ideas." Was his explanation before he climbed up.
LINE BREAK
Practically everyone's jaws drop at the sight of the world around them. For Max and Mila, they hadn't seen the outside for ten years, and for other significantly long time. However, it wasn't as they expected.
It wasn't exactly night, but the sun didn't show so it was dim. Humongous grey clouds rolled in the grey sky, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, as shadowy figures zoomed across the sky. The ground was barren and wasteland, but the church next to them was upright, standing oddly clean in all the destruction.
"Holy shit..." Max muttered, earning an elbow from Mila, who was still gobsmacked.
A huge armoured truck stood grandly next to the church. It was a combination of black and various shades of grey, with spikes sticking out the sides and the hubcaps, with small slits for windows. A rather large machine-gun had been put on top, and the roof was surrounded by barbed wire to prevent anyone, or anything, from climbing up.
"Get in." William motioned, and climbed into the driver's seat himself, with Paige sitting in the passenger's seat, an odd look upon her face.
The inside was just as brilliant as the outside. It was again black and grey, however the seats were plush, but a large shelf at the back were a assorted amount of weaponry and grenades. Everyone easily fit in, even allowing Conner and Tally to sit on their own.
"Okay everyone. Be prepared, this is only the first of many trials, and you may die, in fact, you WILL die eventually, but let's just keep that train of thought away." William joked grimly. "For now, you need to steal your determination for the traps ahead, and for the destruction of the first killer.
