(A/N: No I did not skip a Round, they don't compete in every single one)

We all woke up that morning, you guessed it, tired. I'm pretty sure we all passed out instead of fell asleep. We all got up and got ready for the next round. I scanned everyone with my Stat Scanner and we all left. We headed to the teleporter and entered the game.
'Bluefin Depot'

The game started with all of us on the same team. Again. I hoped none of us died this time. I didn't want that. I ran forward with my roller while Max and Star took the other way. Scamander followed me and covered me from unseen enemies. Max and Star were having some trouble on the other team. After I cleared out the main area I went back toward where Scamander was and covered the area in light blue ink. We headed to where Star and Max were. I had an idea. I super jumped to where Max was and instantly killed one of the inklings. "Two more to go!" Max said smiling. I smiled back and we ran forward ready to go. We splashed the wall and ran up. There was a girl standing back smiling. Her hair glowed. "Oh no..." Max whispered. He grabbed my arm and dodged out of the way. She smirked and followed us. He dragged me back across the field. "Why are we running?" I asked. "She has an Inkzooka!" He said. "Then why don't we splat her?" I asked. "It's too big a risk!" He said. He turned into a squid and swam up the wall the where Star and Scamander were. She got closer. "I can take her." I said confidently. I readied my burst bombs and ran out. I threw one down with perfect accuracy, it hit her in the face but unfazed she whipped out the Inkzooka. I was paralyzed with fear. "NO!" I heard someone yell. I was shoved to the floor and the purple ink went by my body. I got a hold of myself and jumped down angrily splatting her. I ran back up the wall and saw who he saved me.

Star and Max went pale. My face drained color. Scamander laid on the floor completely purple. I fell to my knees next to him. "S..Scamander... I'm.." He coughed up some ink. "I..its fine..." He croaked. Tears went down my face. "I'll be watching you all along the way." He said smiling through the ink. I fell to the floor and hugged him. "Don't go..." I whispered. He patted my back weakly. "Lay me down and leave me." He said. "N..n..no... I can't.." I said. "Leave me Aura, this isn't your fault." He said. Star grabbed my arm and I looked at her hopefully. She nodded sadly and we left. He saluted to me before we rounded the corner. I saluted back and tried to hold back tears. I saw the splash of purple. He was gone.

Before Max could say anything I jumped down and swam up the wall. I could sense someone was nearby. I pretended to be bait. I had a burst bomb in hand. Boy appeared next to me with his gun. I smirked and threw the burst bomb directly at his face. For a second he was blinded and I used this to my advantage. Running forward I slammed down the roller in the last minute. The game ended with no more enemies to splat. We came out of the game, Callie and Marie talked to the camera again. We all headed to my room. I laid down on the said of my bed. A single tear rolled down Star's face and Max's nose turned red as if he had been sniffling or rubbing away snot. All that went through my mind was Estelle's face and Scamander's salute. I rested my face into my hands absorbing the warmth as comfort. Star sat next to me and laid her head on my shoulder. I smiled a little. We could survive. We could all make it. There were only 2 more rounds for us. That means it would be us three against the the last three survivors.
Last three..
