Chapter 0316 You are confident .<\/p>\n
It could get you killed , he told me .<\/p>\n
Then the other player will be eliminated , I told him , shrugging a shoulder as I turned back to the knives .<\/p>\n
This week yes , Levi said , folding his arms across his chest .<\/p>\n
But next week will be death matches and that confidence of we wont save you worry about that next week , I replied simply without looking at him .<\/p>\n
Ill worn He was quiet for a moment before he barked out laughter , startling me once more .<\/p>\n
I turned to look at him and he ran his fingers through his hair .<\/p>\n
Well , youve certainly impressed me already Miss Montague , he told me , turning to walk away .<\/p>\n
I just hope you live to see the end .<\/p>\n
And with those parting words , he walked away .<\/p>\n
I turned back to the knives , my mind already made up .<\/p>\n
I grabbed them and wandered back towards the others who were patiently waiting .<\/p>\n
While I stood with the others , I took my time putting the knives in certain parts of my attire .<\/p>\n
I wedged one in each of my combat boots , another in the back pocket of my legs , and others in each of my front pockets .<\/p>\n
The handles were black and blended in with my leggings well enough .<\/p>\n
At that moment I was glad I chose the ones with the pockets .<\/p>\n
Tabby saw me as I walked onto the arena with the others .<\/p>\n
She glanced behind me at the others who were carrying their weapons and practicing .<\/p>\n
Then her eyes studied me , noticing the knives in my boots and pockets , her eyes widening You got here early ? She asked when I approached I nodded .<\/p>\n
Apparently , I was chosen as a top 5.<\/p>\n
We got to choose our weapons first , I told her .<\/p>\n
Theres limited supplies of each weapon so you better get there fast , I proceeded to warn Congrats , she said, a small frown on her lips .<\/p>\n
Her tone was almost dismissive , and I could tell her mind was elsewhere .<\/p>\n
I couldnt tell if she was happy for me \u2026 or upsee Well good luck out there , she added as she sauntered over to the others who were lining up to choose their weapons next .<\/p>\n
Judy ! I turned to see Sammy walking towards me with a right smile .<\/p>\n
Good luck today .<\/p>\n
I came to support you .<\/p>\n
I was surprised to see her ; I thought she would be with her boyfriend supporting him , not supporting the competition .<\/p>\n
What about your boyfriend ? I asked .<\/p>\n
Shouldnt you be on his team ? She shrugged .<\/p>\n
Hes Group A so he already went yesterday , she explaine How did lie do ? I asked , not wanting to make it sound like I was fishing for information , even though I was .<\/p>\n
It Ednt hurt to find out where the others stood .<\/p>\n
He did time .<\/p>\n
He had to see a medie for a minor injury , but he cleared him for the next round , she told me .<\/p>\n
He left me all alone today .<\/p>\n
Something about working out with is buddies , So , I figured Id come here and show you Some support .<\/p>\n
Chapter 0316 I nodded thoughtfully .<\/p>\n
Well , I could use all the support I could get .<\/p>\n
Ive never actually used these things before , I admitted , patting my pockets that held the knives .<\/p>\n
But Ive used daggers , so Im sure they arent much different .<\/p>\n
Just smaller , thinner , and much lighter than Im used to .<\/p>\n
She frowned .<\/p>\n
You should have chosen a weapon you were good at to increase your chances , she told me .<\/p>\n
You could get hurt , if you arent careful .<\/p>\n
What better way to impress the judges ? I asked , smirking .<\/p>\n
I might even impress myself .<\/p>\n
She chuckled .<\/p>\n
Well , good luck .<\/p>\n
Maybe we can hang out later? She suggested .<\/p>\n
I kind of wanted to do a girls night or something .<\/p>\n
Friends dont come easy to me and you and Nan seem like really fun girls .<\/p>\n
That would be great .<\/p>\n
If you see Nan , can you tell her to wall for me after the match ? Sure , she said , then she turned and sauntered off .<\/p>\n
I went towards the center of the arena to prepare for the battle and get into position .<\/p>\n
My eyes wandered around the stadium until they found Gavin , seated with the other Lyca Chairmen .<\/p>\n
Lycan Mica was talking to him , but he didnt seem to be paying attention .<\/p>\n
His eyes were on me .<\/p>\n
I held his eyes for a long while , time seeming to stand still .<\/p>\n
My heart was pounding heavily in my chest as heat rose in my cheeks .<\/p>\n
It was only when I saw Alpha Levi staring at me that I managed to pull my eyes away from where they were seated .noveldrama<\/p>\n
Welcome to the second portion of the competition , the announcer spoke through the loudspeaker , silencing the murmuring audience .<\/p>\n
This time you will be using weapons .<\/p>\n
Killing is forbidden , and if its done , youll be eliminated .<\/p>\n
This is not a death match .<\/p>\n
You are judged based on your skills using weapons and your ability to aim properly .<\/p>\n
Medics are nearby ; if you are too injured to continue , youll be taken to the infirmary and eliminated from the competition .<\/p>\n
Good luck .<\/p>\n
The crackling of the loudspeaker made me flinch and then the announcer spoke again after a long pause .Begin !<\/p>\n
