Humanity's last breath

11. Teamwork is the key

Everyone from our class stood side by side waiting for General Mathew and the captains to arrive. There were also three other classes who were being tested today. If I hadn't been so cleaver I wouldn't have realized that the trainer himself looked slightly nervous for all of us. We weren't even halfway through our training and they were already testing our skills.

Wait... Maybe they aren't testing our skills... Maybe they're doing these tests to separate strong who will at least try to fight the deligents from people who will back down without a fight.

I smiled to myself. Like I was going to be classed as weak.

"Blake?!" Shouted Sargent K. My class turned their heads towards me.

"Yes sir?"

"Don't smile" My smile dropped, way to ruin the mood.

General Mathew's carriage pulled up to us and everyone saluted when he exited the carriage. A few moments later four horses arrived and the four captains jumped off their horse.

All four captains stood side by side in their full military uniform. Everyone starred in amazement, Sargent K cleared his throat to remind us to salute. If a deligent stupid enough to attack us right now, it would have no chance of breathing for a second before it is eliminated by one of them.

After the delay we saluted.

For once Captain Hunter Jaxon didnt look bored, he looked into space deep in thought forgetting the reason why he was here.

Captain Logan Fisher was smirking to himself. Man, the guy is way too confident.

I guess that Captain Lexi Cains was the tall female with some wild hair and glasses just like Amelia. They look so alike that I would have mistaken them for sisters, hopefully Captain Lexi isn't as crazy as Amelia but from her crazy grin, I think she is exactly like Amelia.

Anyway... The last Captain, Captain Carter Jevato was looking up to the sky until he looked at us, his eyes had a blurred colour as he is sadly blind however his skills are still phenomenon like the rest of the captains and his senses are spot on like he was never blind in the first place.

"I and Captains Carter, Lexi, Hunter and Logan will all be judging you on your performance today. As you should know, you don't have to pass all the tests to fight a deligent, however, if you do pass all tests you will have an advantage among the rest of your class mates because of the skill you have presented" General Mathew said "All of you were given a map, this will show you where to go after each test, and the location will show you what to do to pass the test but don't worry, no one will be fighting real deligents until the end of the day when we pick the chosen sixteen"

"Actually fifteen because of Amelia Cola" Captain Logan added

Amelia's face went bright red with embarrassment. I don't think anyone will forget Amelia.

"Oh yes... Anyway... for the first test there will be one on one fighting, Captain Cater will explain the rules. On the back of your map it shows you who you will be fighting, if you lose the fight, go to Captain Carter and he will tell you who you are fighting next. Any questions?" No one said anything "Good Luck"

I took out my map and searched for a name. Gracie Flint Class 2. Great she's not even in my class, good thing we have tags with our class and name. I asked some class 2 people if they knew who Gracie flint was and in no time I found a little girl who was supposed to be my age but looked half it.

"I can't fight her"

"I know, she's twice your size" Some guy from class 2 said.

"Are we looking at the same person?"
