Maori Knaiver walked to one of the booths when her baby blue dragon, Rax, chirped. "What is it?" Maori craned her neck before scratching Rax's chin, her eyes laid on a tryout. She walked to the booth while Rax flew to a nearby booth that sold snacks.

The blue baby dragon hovered over María (the Dimension Guardian) after she bought a bag of fish chips. "Rax, get back here!" Maori hollered. The girl with the blue crystal necklace took a bite of the fish chips before feeding some of them to the baby blue dragon. Maori shook her head as she creased the left corner of her mouth.

"Would you like to sign for the tryout?" Adrain asked as he held a pen with his stubby fingers. Her brown curls bounced when she looked at Adrian.

"Yes, where do I sign?"

Not to far behind a teenage girl with a similar bob cut to María came not too far behind as she was wearing an outfit similar to a magician, though her skin was light and her eyes were a golden yellow. Her black cat Jinx had matching eyes as she clung around the back of Maggie's neck. Jinx lifted her head at the scent of fish chips.

Maori finished signing the form as she walked out to pick up Rax.

"Mrrow." Jinx meowed before Maggie signed.

Dirlu, Eimy, Uiwo and Ximo have taken their seats. "When is the tournament going to start?" They overheard Zack say while the two people that were sitting next to him glare at him. "I was just asking, sheesh!"

"If I hear you ask that one more time, we're leaving!" Thomas warned.

"Oh c'mon, Tom! Do you really wanna go back home now?" He looked at Thomas in disbelief, "You really wanna go back home to wear a friggin'n face mask?! Well I'm not goin'! I'm staying here." Zack pouted, his arms crossed before María came back with a bag half full of fish chips.

"I'm gonna go powder my nose." Stacey said as she stood up, her braided black pony tail whipped to the side.

"You gotta be kidding." Thomas gritted his teeth.

"You wish!" Stacey remarked before heading down the stairs.

Then Baci Llus stood from his seat to buy a bag full of peanuts. Micah took her smartphone out of her pocket and texted Stella.

Have you met the other competitors yet?

 Micah 10:34 AM

The Amoebian typed before sending the text. Stella receceived a ping from her cellphone and she checked her text messag

e.

No, not yet. 

Stella 10:34 AM

Micah read the text that Stella sent and put her smartohone back into the pocket of her lab coat.

After Maggie signed she headed up to the 2nd floor to take her seat. Jinx stared at Mewmi for a brief second before hissing. Mewmi, in her human form shifted into a gijinko for a second to hiss back at the black cat. "Jinx, what's wrong with you?" Maggie scolded her as she took Jinx off her shoulders and carried her. Mewmi reverted back in her human form before she stood in front of the booth and signed her name. Adrian stacked the seven forms that were already signed and put them away leaving a single form.
