IT WAS THE morning of the tournament, and Gwen was prepared. After her late night swim, her and MJ ran by a few extra topics, just in case Liz's excessive training forgot to cover everything. However, both were pretty confident in their skills and went to sleep knowing it would be a tough challenge for both sides. But now, it was a matter of time until they found out who was to win.
They both selected their outfits and wore their signature, yet kind of tacky, blazers. At first, Gwen was skeptical about packing her suit, but soon thought it was better to be safe than sorry, so she placed it subtly in her backpack. Right on schedule, Liz knocked on their door. "Gwen, Michelle, come on we're gonna be late." She alerted and the two girls nodded their heads and followed Liz to gather the rest of the team.
"Ned, Peter, we're gonna be late." She said, repeating her previous line in fear of it being true.
"Okay, uh, hold on, hold on." Ned said before opening the door without Peter Parker.
"Where's Peter?" Liz asked instantly.
"The thing is..." Ned tried to lie, but when he saw Liz in anger, he avoided her wrath. "I don't know." He gave in.
"You don't know?" Gwen repeated.
"He isn't here." Ned confirmed, resulting in their current conundrum.
Everyone was gathered at the entrance of the main hall, cellphones weren't permitted beyond the doors, so the group had very little time to spam Peter and finding out where he was, even Mr Harrington joined in. However, every call went straight to voicemail, and their attempt was soon cut short when they were informed it was time to enter.
Gwen was angrier than she wanted to be, she'd grown her hopes up when she asked Peter to rejoin, and had even allowed herself to do a small victory dance when Mr Harrington put him back on the team. However, she never expected him to pull one of his disappearing acts in an important situation like this.
With haste, she walked into the hall and began writing her notes and equations down on paper. The questionnaire had begun and everyone had to prepare, regardless of Peter's absence or possible abduction.
"Our first topic is the human body." The announcer stated. "What is the function of the cerebellum?"
Gwen was quick to ring her bell, she knew the answer, however, someone beat her to it. "Movement and Coordination." A boy answered from the opposite team, sending a sneer towards Gwen for being too slow. From that moment, she swore to annihilate that boy and his team.
"Correct." The instructor complimented before moving onto the next question. "Which muscle is our fastest?"
Gwen rang the bell, using her quick reflexes to her advantage. "Midtown high?
