Chapter 4 - Battle On The Bridge

Alex looked at me "what you going to do?"

Jesse looked at Alex in silence. Glad to know he thinks we are magically best friends after just meeting the guy, like I have any idea what I'm doing besides surviving.

They had to have brought me here for a reason and it sure wasn't my strength. My mind was smarter than average though. I wonder what the maximum for humans is and what's even possible beyond that. Or maybe I'm over thinking.

Watching as punches were thrown out from others one after the other a group finally managed to make it to the start of the bridge and made a run for it. The duo was fast and everyone had their eyes on them.

*WHOOSH*

Everyone watched wide eyed. As we all watched the water under the bridge rise up over thirty feet high into the air and come crashing down over the center of the bridge. When the water finally settled the speedy duo was nowhere to be seen anymore.

Looking ahead by the headmaster at the end of the bridge two shadowy figures could be seen holding the pair under their arms before dropping them and vanishing.

"Great effort from you two and being the first to attempt the bridge shows others just how they might be able to adapt to the situation and with courage to face the unknown. Grade C!" The professor yelled while waving his hand over the two and immediately a gust of air dried them off and had them standing on their feet again. He then turned back to watch the rest of us.

Everyone's fighting stopped and now turned into thinking. Some students tried swimming across only to make it halfway before the water swallowed them up and they were retrieved by the dark figures again.

Some students went around trying to find a way through the forest on the sides of the school only for the trees to meet their demise. We didn't hear anything back from those students.

"GRADE F."

"GRADE F."

"GRADE F!" We heard being yelled over and over again. A large number of students had failed this exam.

Then one group who seemed to be fighting amongst themselves stood on the bridge and nodded toward each other. Both were wearing hoods over there heads and we couldn't see their appearances. They ran forward only for the same thing to happen as we watched the wave about to come crashing down. The bigger person among the two shielded the other from the water. When the wave subsided the smaller figure was the only one standing. They raced over towards the end and could see their teammate hanging off the side of the bridge washed away from the water. Pulling them up they proceeded onwards. Cheering was heard from our side watching the teamwork of these two. We could even see windows opening from the schools second and first floor with others looking out.

The duo managed to make it to the end of the bridge safely.

"Congratulations on passing the bridge! Tell us your names" as the professor held out his hand to the hardworking pair.

Reaching the end of the bridge you could notice the duo was exhausted. They let their hoods down and the crowd gasped in shock.

"I'm Adam" the big muscular guy said showing his gentle face and short but neatly groomed blonde hair.

The second member of the duo had long dark black hair with purple strands throughout her hair with green eyes and a very light complexion.

These two looked to be models straight out of an agency and they had done the best so far with speed courage and overwhelming beauty. Maybe not as graceful put a pass is a pass.

"I'm Victoria and I'm here to be the best" she said looking over her shoulder at everyone else her eyes cold with killing intent made you wonder just what she has gone through before coming here.

"Nice to meet you seeing as how you're the first to make it you'll be the first in your year to know my name as well. My name is zephyr. Your headmaster and a professor here."

"GRADE A!"
