The Truth Behind It All...

Chapter 1

"Welcome, I am the creator of this....let's say....trial...." a man in front of me said. He stood tall, his fetures covered by a long brown cloak.

"Where am I?" I asked looking around.

"In due time child. In due time. Allow me to explain the rules. You and some others will be teamed against four other teams. Your goal, survive, and escape. If you don't, you die. The rules are different depending on the round or game you are currently playing."

"Game? What game?"

"It varies depending on how well your team plays."

"You keep saying my team, but who is my team? Why are there teams? What the Nether do you even want?"

The man sighed. "You're one of those people. Hmmm....maybe you shouldn't have been on that team then...oh well." He looked at me closely. "J, I have my reasons, I will not give you anymore information than I do the others. It wouldn't be...fair....now would it?"

"I could honestly care less about fairness. You take me to some random place and expect me to follow orders from you? Without any information that I actually need?" I scoffed and rolled my eyes. "Yah right. Now, unless I get answers, I'm not doing anything."

He stared at me and nodded. "What do you want to know?"

"Where am I? And why am I here?"

"You are safe.."

"That doesn't answer my question."

He sighed in annoyance. "I cannot answer that yet. But you're here for an important reason rest assure that I have my reasons."

I crossed my arms and glaired at him. "I'm sure you do, but I want to know why I should listen to you."

"Because you want to live." I went to argue, but he put a hand up to stop me. "It's time for you to join the rest of your team, and meet the others. I will answer more questions there." I nodded and the room went black.

I opened my eyes and sat up rubbing my head. "Hey kid, are you ok?" I looked up and saw a tall man with sunglasses, he wore a black military uniform with a bright glowing amulet, a purple gem surrounded in gold. He held out a gloved hand witch I took.

He helped me to my feet and I nodded. "Uhh...yah, thanks."

He smiled and looked around at all the people. "I'm Sky, what's your name?"

"J."

He gave me a curious look. "J? Is that short for something?" I nodded.

"Yup, yup it is."

"Ya gonna tell me?"

"Nope. It's a secret and imma keep it that way." He nodded.

"Ok, suit yourself. HEY TY! OVER HERE!" He shouted to a man with green headphones. The other man ran over. He had a white tee and hair covered one eye. "Dude, how can you see properly?"

Ty shrugged. "Magic." They both chuckled and Ty looked at me. "Who's this?"

"Oh! Ty, this is J. J, this is Ty." Ty nodded to me and I nodded back.

"It short for somethin?" I nodded. "Cool, oh Sky, some more people woke up come on, let's go meet them!" He said excitedly.

Hmm....not to worried about where we are is he? "TY! YOU'RE GOING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED ONE OF THESE DAYS!" Sky shouted as Ty jumped over a fence. I laughed a little and watched Sky run after him.

"Any idea where we are kid?" I jumped and turned around to see someone behind me. He was about a head taller than me and wore a cyan shirt. (Yes, he's here to, deal with it.) His eyes were pure white and he had a deep firm voice.
