The Maze Arena

Chapter Two

It was eleven o'clock at night, and i flew through the air with the others keeping to the shadows until we were on top of the ocean. Luckily we weren't wearing bright clothes, so we were not clearly visable for people below to see.

No one really flew at this time, so we were grateful that we didn't bump into anyone on the way. Shooting past an Intelligent building window, the light from inside suddenly turned on making me squint from the sudden brightness. I turned my head towards the window and saw the curtain starting to shift,

"Crap!" I cursed then quickly shot off, catching up with the others. Hopefully whoever was at the window didn't see me fly away. I did not want to get caught.

By the time i caught up, we were already at the edge of the tower looking over the horizon. Lance turned to everyone and grinned, "You guys ready for the time of your lives?"

We all nodded our heads, we were excited about breaking one of the hover-board rules but i tried not to think about getting caught. I set my mind on sweeping high and low in the air, having the time of my life.

"Ok" Lance whispered, "3..2..1...show time!" He suddenly flew of into the air above the sea at full speed, i came next making sure my feet were firmly connected to the hover-board. I could hear the others following after me. 

We flew off into the distance, far from the tower so that they wouldn't hear us shouting and screaming with fun. The wind blew on my face, making my ponytail fly behind me... sometimes getting whacked in the face by it too.

Cold, salty air pinched my skin and i swiftly floated down as close as i could to the water. I bent into a low crouch and stuck out my hand letting the cool, liquid water flow through my fingers. This was breath taking!

A shout from above made me look up, "Sam!" Lance called, "Race!",

I stood up on my board and flew up next to Lance who was hovering, waiting for me. "Sure! You are so going down man!" I grinned,

"I'd like to see you try!" Lance replied then shot off having a head start.

"OI! That's not fair!" I shouted after him, going as fast as my hover-board could go. I dodged past the others, going high and low and side to side. I leaned forward, my hover-board starting to go faster. I flew right next to Lance and gave him a smile, "Yep you will never win!", i swung out my hand and pushed him off his hover-board. Screams and curses followed him down towards the water, i heard one sentence that sounded like, "I will get you back for this!".

I stopped to a halt and watched as his hover-board flew after him at amazing speed and caught him as he fell, cushioning the fall.

I laughed. We always pushed each other off our boards as we knew our hover-board's would catch us. I could only think of one person who had fallen off his hover-board and injured himself badly, it was in the Tower's news and the reason was because his hover-board had run out of power. That's why i always left my hover-board on charge when i was not using it.

I saw Lance stand back up on the board and fly towards me. Instantly i flew away, knowing that he was going to try to push me off to get his revenge.

"Don't worry, i won't push you off your board" Lance smiled innocently,

"Oh really? I sooo totally trust you" I replied sarcastically, a grin forming on my face.

"I won't, i'm a kind person"

"Uh huh, well i'm just going to fly away..." I laughed then made as much distance as there was between me and Lance. I did not trust that guy.

I made my way over to the others. Jake and Greg were having a contest on who could do the best trick on their hover-board. Sarah and Brooke were judging who was the best. I flew over to them and hovered next to Sarah.
