                                    I jumped over the chasm and rolled as I fell. I was barely behind  Sylus. It was my team versus Sol's and I wasn't going to lose. Jack  nearly falls in the chasm but I grab his arm and throw him straight into Sylus. I don't trust Jack but you know what they say 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer'.  I think as he lands on Sylus' back.  We were all in a genetically altered forest created by the Weapon Master's.  Jack does no damage to Sylus. The guy is literally a tank  as he blasts  Jack to the floor. I jump grabbing onto a tree branch then kicking  Tom right in the jaw with both feet. Sylus turns towards me as Tom falls. Sylus is 5'8  and  has shaggy black hair and his eyes are brown. He  creates a cyclone so strong trees are literally torn from the ground.  I dodge one that whips around  my head.  "Yea that's right run!" Sylus yells increasing the cyclone to where all I hear is wind. 

                                  A large boulder  swings towards my head and I jump on top of it clinging to it for dear life.  I slowly lift my head  and see that Sylus is getting tired,the relentless winds are slowing down.  Then I see an opening and jump at him  landing on his  back. He tries to pry me off but i have a tight grip around his throat.  He thrashes around trying to throw me off of him. I look before us seeing the large expanse of the forest then recognizing  Mark's fur. I let go off Sylus dropping into the  forest.

                          -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                          Phillip drops  right before me and I grin as he looks around trying to see where I am.  I'm covered in leaves on a tree branch right above him. He  starts to walk away from  my tree and I tackle him.  "I was wondering when you'd arrive." He says  throwing me into a tree. "Sol you can't beat me."  He says  throwing a punch at my face. I catch his fist "I can't?" I say  pushing his fist down.  "No you can't." he says   elbowing me in the ribs. I  punch him in the gut making him back up.   I  throw two punches at him both of which he dodges.    He tries to   kick me but I catch his foot and  elbow him in the shin.  He yells and I let his foot drop.  The second his foot drops hes blasting  fire  at me. I jump over a fallen tree and run keeping my head low.    

                               I duck as a large volley of fire bolts turns the tree before me into  embers.   I slide under it as it starts to fall.  As I stand  a crimson bolt flies at me and I have to jump up and grab unto a tree branch.  Hailey stands in between  two trees holding an alien cannon. "How do you get that?" I ask  firing two bolts  of energy at her. "Well my powers aren't like yours." she answers front flipping over the explosion the energy causes.  She lands two feet away and starts charging up the rifle. I tear the rifle out of her hands and throw it into the forest.   She kicks me in the stomach and as I double over she knees me in the face.

                                 My eyes are watering and I can't see anything as she runs away. I wipe tears from my eyes and stand. There is a moment for me to regain my senses then a POP. Next thing I know I'm in the air above the jungle Santiago above me. "I thought you were fighting Li." I say punching him in the stomach. "He's out of the game."  Santiago says teleporting us underwater. I elbow him in the jaw and he tries to yell but only bubbles come out.  I grab his arm and swim upward. Seconds later my head breaks the top of the water.   I suck in oxygen and swim us to the edge of the lake and throw him unto the shore. He's unconscious so a red X starts tracing itself over his chest.  I start to back up away from him and see Mark falling out of the sky.    

                          I sprint towards the trees and a column of ice blocks my path.   I turn around in time to see Mark  land fully transformed. He turns his head at me and roars.  I'm dead. I think  backing up. "Come on fight!!!" He roars lifting his head to the sky. "OK." I say  raising my fists as he charges me.  I dodge his first punch but I'm blinded by his second. He grabs my  shoulders and headbutts me then throws me into the lake. I stand in the shallow water and  blast him with bolt after bolt of energy.  I feel the wet trickle of blood dripping from my nostril. He charges me pushing me to the ground I grab his hands and wrestle him. He ends up on top and roars in my face.  I knee him in the stomach  then flip him over my shoulders  into the water.   He lands on his back and I twist my body around facing him.  He digs his claws into my thighs and I grunt. I grab his arm and  pull making him roar. 

                                         He tries to bite me but I kick him in the head. With that he officially loses it. I am flipped headfirst into the water   then kicked in the back. I lift my head  upwards and see a blast of air hit  Mark in the chest. I swim upwards  sucking in air heavily.    I swim over to shallow water and stand.  Three loud horns go off signalling the exercise is over. I walk over to the shore and see Hailey and Alyssa  helping Santiago wake up. Alyssa pulls water out his lungs and his body. "Do you need help?" I ask them hearing Sylus land behind me. "No, we're good." Alyssa answers.

                                         We   get the rest of our team members then walk  to the exit. As we open the exit doors I see my  uncle standing with the two guards from the  Cafeteria. "You all did really good in there." my uncle says. I look past  him at the woman who spoke in my head. He follows my gaze and says "Sol have you met  Lieutenant Richards and Mrs.Smith."  I nod reminiscing my first meeting with them. "Well anyways they will be taking you all to the clinic for a test to see if your OK." my uncle says locking the doors to the forest. We have your uncle.   the woman's voice says in my head.Say anything and he will be slaughtered along with the rest of your friends.
