"You could choose your own teammates and soulmate?!"

Junhui whisper shouted, making Bang Chan laugh as he nodded

"Well yes. And another fun fact, I had actually chosen my soulmate before Minnie but sadly he... He just left me. I was lucky enough to receive another chance."

Bang Chan stated with a smile while looking at Seungmin, who smiled back at him even if he was very curious about who Bang Chan's previous soulmate was

"So our team's name will be Stray Kids and the acronym will be SKZ. I chose this name originally because we were lost children, chasing after our dreams. But now I changed it to represent the idea of finding the way together out of the ordinary."

Bang Chan explained as they all smiled in awe at his explanation

"And what do we have Captain?"

Wooyoung asked as Hongjoong smirked before looking at his friends

"Well our team's name will be Ateez which is the acronym of A Teenager Z. It also means A to Z, meaning that we are a team that is aiming to do everything we can enthusiastically."

Hongjoong explained as they all clapped at his explanation

"Aju nice! Now we wait for the full moon!"

Seungkwan exclaimed happily as the others laughed. Soon the lunch had ended but the 36 them alongside Deji, Danbi, Gyuri, Hana, Hanjin and Samuel were asked to stay back by Eric

"Well hello! The reason why I asked you all to stay back was because after your next class ends, the 42 of you are asked to come to the training grounds for that hell of a competition between your respective groups. Yang Hanjin and Kim Samuel can help Boo Seungkwan since he is all alone. Now you all are dismissed."

Eric announced as Deji, Danbi, Gyuri and Hana looked at Eric in confusion

"Oh that's right- you 4 are new here. So to make it easier, the main 8 groups were supposed to have some sort of a fighting competition between each other. But now that you 4 have joined too, you 4 are also chosen for the competition alongside Yang Hanjin and Kim Samuel. You 4 are a group by the way and good luck! If you guys would like, you can use this period to discuss and train with your groupmates. Jeon Wonwoo, as much as your ability to read other's minds can be useful, don't use it for this competition and Song Mingi, just focus on your group's plan and not to listen to other's plans. Same goes to Christopher, Felix, Minho, Seungcheol and Hyunjin."

Eric warned as the people mentioned above stiffened at his words and nodded as a yes

"Well then that's it! Now off you all go!"

Eric shooed them away. They all broke apart, joining their respective groups. Exceptionals made their way to the gymnasium

"Alright guys this is one in a million chance. We have to be really careful."

Namjoon stated as the rest of Exceptionals nodded

"I have already made a plan. If you guys have a plan as well, then shoot it. I will go first."

Seungcheol stated as he started off, with his groupmates listening to him carefully. They went turn wise turn. After they all said the plans in their heads, Namjoon improvised all of them and combined them together, impressing all of the members of Exceptionals

"That's one hell of a plan hyung! But if this plan somehow doesn't work, then how will we do it?"

Seokmin asked as Namjoon chuckled and looked at them with his dimple smile
