After their meeting with Lily, Atlas and Alicia made their way back into the gym, ready to kick off day two of the trials. The recruits had already gathered, their faces a mix of exhaustion and anticipation. Despite the early hour, the excitement of what lay ahead kept their spirits high.
Atlas wasted no time. "Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to day two of training. We're diving right in, so let's start with a quick warm-up."
Atlas turned the sound system on, and a booming bass song filled the room. It was the first song of a custom playlist that he had made last night. This playlist was perfect for a gym in Canada. It was quite different from what they played in South America, where Atlas had worked out before during a trip overseas.
*Seriously, who plays salsa in the gym?* Atlas wondered. *South Americans, it seems. I never want to hear that again in my life.*
This first song on his playlist was called "Portal Quest." It cleverly described how portals worked and the types of monsters they'd be fighting.
**Verse 1:**
In two years' time, the portals will call,
A world unknown, where shadows crawl.
Demon dogs and trolls, they'll try to break,
But you've got to stand tall, for your own sake.
**Chorus:**
Stay strong, stay tough, you can't lose your way,
Fight through the darkness, come what may.
In the wasteland, you'll face the night,
But with courage and strength, you'll win the fight.
**Verse 2:**
Skeletons rise from the dirt and grime,
Slimes and bandits will test your prime.
You'll battle the fierce, and you'll battle the vile,
But hold on tight, and face it with style.
**Chorus:**
Stay strong, stay tough, you can't lose your way,
Fight through the darkness, come what may.
In the wasteland, you'll face the night,
But with courage and strength, you'll win the fight.
**Bridge:**
The gym's behind you, the wasteland awaits,
A portal will open, sealing your fates.
Prepare your hearts, prepare your mind,
In two years' time, it's battle you'll find.
**Chorus:**
Stay strong, stay tough, you can't lose your way,
Fight through the darkness, come what may.
In the wasteland, you'll face the night,
But with courage and strength, you'll win the fight.
**Outro:**
So remember this song, as you train and strive,
With each passing day, you'll be ready to survive.
In two years' time, when the portals do call,
You'll face the wasteland and stand tall.
