Trial day 7

I paced the cell impatiently. Escape is unfortunately not an option, no matter how hard I try. I mean, I've been through worse. A cupple scratches on my arms and legs isn't my biggest worry at the moment. "Where are they?" I muttered bitterly.

"Wow, just wow. Seven days? I expected more from the other leaders." 7 chuckled leaning on the door of my cell.

"Other leaders? Wait, the others are here too?! Who?" I asked. Looking around, I can see nothing but void blocks that trapped me inside this prison. Offering no chance of freedom.

"You'd like to know wouldn't you?" 7 asked looking at me.

I rolled my eyes. "Well duh, that's why I'm asking."

He threw a knife suddenly, I barely had enough time to move so it didn't impale my chest. Instead, the blade stuck into my shoulder. "I don't remember asking for your attitude." He hissed. "Now be quiet."

"Then tell me who else is here!" I demanded.

He sighed in annoyance. "Fine, not like you can do anything about it. Selene, Teresa, Ender, and J are all being held captive here. Since team Finis did so poorly in the past few trials, J is paying the price."

"What?!" I shouted. "How is that fair?!"

"Never said it was fair kid."

I growled and paced my cell. I waited until 7 left before I muttered to myself. "So the others are here....that means that our team has to be coming for us....that also means that if they don't hurry the hell up, I'm gonna end up killing one of them...."
