When Hale showed up, we all talked about what happened for a while, wondering what it could possibly mean. The only thing different that we've noticed is our trials are getting harder, less time and greater challenges. We all assumed for the past month that it's because we are getting older, but now we're not so sure. We think things are going to change around here and we don't know why. For now though i'll keep my arms covered, wrapped in black, I'll just say it's for training. We agreed to keep this between us, and wait to know what will change.

*SATURDAY THE NEXT TRIAL*

"Guys where am I!? Where are you!? What's going on?!" was the first thing I heard when I woke up walled off from my roommates. I recognized the voice, it was Zelda's, she must be trapped so I went to open my door only to realize, so was I. "Zelda I can't get out either! Boys get your ass up somethings wrong!"
"I'm up" croaked Hale's still groggy morning voice, "So am I" chimed in Zach. "Boys what the hell is this?!" I could here Zelda's anxiety rising. "Zelda they don't know either," "we're walled in too don't worry" said Hale exasperated. "Guys this is what we train for calm down, grab your guns put your coms in and find an angle to shoot at the wall so that the bullet won't bounce off and kill you instead." Zach was calm as usual, finding a solution to the problem "Okay" I responded and so did Hale.

"Zelda you there?" No answer. "Zelda!?" I yelled again, only Zach responded though "can't help her till we get out so start shooting." We shot for a minute calculating our possibilities, examining the walls, testing their durability with guns, but nothing worked.

Blaze: "Okay guys if we can't get out on the ground maybe we can on the top"
Hale sarcastically: "Oh yeah Blaze lets just climb the walls without ropes, great idea honeybunches"
B: "Oh shut up Hale we can get ropes, check our bags, everyone has rope right?"
H: "yeah"
Zach: "yeah"
And then the next thing we heard was an earsplitting scream from Zelda.
B: "Guys we have to move come on!"
We began looking for a way to get the rope up, Zach was strong enough to throw his over a rafter and climb.
B: "Do you have eyes on Zelda?!
Zach: "Yeah, yeah I do, odd news though... Blaze, I think we have to change her name too"
B: "What, why? To what?"
Zach: "Because she's doing the thing too, except her color is ice blue"
