Chapter 6~ The choosing

Jordan's POV
_____________
Today is the big day. Today is the day that the gods chose us. They will chose us to be on one of their teams.

After I took my shower and put my clothes on, I fixed my hair. Since today was special I decided to make my hair look a lot better than it usually does.

I skipped down the stairs. I'm in a good mood today. Why would I not be?

I walked into the kitchen and saw my mom drinking her usual morning coffee.

"Good morning, Jordan. Your in a good mood. Anything happening?" Mom asked me.

"Yeah, I'm in a great mood."

I walked to the fridge and opened it. There really wasn't anything there. I sighed and walked to the table to sit down.

"You can have some coffee? I'm going to the market today." Mom said. I shook my head. "So, is anything important happening today?"

"Yeah. Today we are going to be chosen the gods."

Mom looked at me confused. "The gods? I've not heard about them yet."

"I'll explain to you after school." I said. "Also I'm going to a party around seven, I think."

"Okay. Don't get into trouble at the party." Mom said.

I smiled. "I won't, mom. You know I won't." Well, at least I hope I won't get into trouble.

I got up from the chair and walked to front door. I grabbed my bag from the wall hook and opened the door.

"Bye mom!" I yelled, walking out the door. When I closed the door I saw Tucker standing in front of me.

"Ready to be chosen?"

"Yeah. I'm a little nervous..."

"Nervous? I'm excited!" Tucker exclaimed, smiling.

"Do you have that ring from the other day?" I asked. Tucker reached into his pocket and pulled out the shiny golden ring.

He slipped it onto his finger, then walked to me and grabbed my wrist.

"Ready?"

I nodded. Tucker leaped into the air, tightly holding my wrist. I clamped my eyes shut.

Heights were never my favorite.

I felt the cool morning air push against my face. I opened my eyes slowly and saw that we had just passed Tucker's dojo.

It was beautiful up here. Ruxomar was a beautiful place. It has a rainbow tree garden. I saw it yesterday.

We had just passed Wag's tower and I decided to look down.

That was a mistake.

I didn't realize how far up in the air we were.

I quickly looked back up. Tucker noticed, and said, "Don't look down, you smart ass."

Tom's POV

I was sitting on the bench out in front of school. Sonja and Wag are here and we were just waiting on Tucker and Sparklez.

"What is taking them so long?" Sonja asked.

"I have no clue." Wag said.

"My sister is coming to the party!" Sonja exclaimed, smiling. She gasped. "Oh my gosh Tom, you and Jordan should be going out!"

I felt my face heat up.

"You like him, don't you?"

I was probably as red as a tomato.
