Game of Death

5: The Chosen One

(5: Times we don't need.)

Ever since Toni left the other five students with confused faces, he barely talked to anyone. Some guards led him to an abandoned room and locked him up. So now, he's in there thinking about everything.

Toni's POV

I just couldn't figure why were brought here and why no one has been trying to contact us. Are we on earth? It feels like we're the only people in the whole world and it freaks me out. But when I think of Dr Evernever and his pet Mrs Grundy, it makes me angry. He killed Josie and Archie. Soon, he'll kill Veronica, Betty, Jughead, Reggie and...Cheryl. 

And that thought made me angrier than I already was. I felt a sort of heatwave in the palm of my hands.  It was something I've never felt before. I look at my hands and there were...glowing? As I close them, I feel a huge pain go through me. My knees go weak, making me lean against this stack of barrels. and breathe heavily.

''You'' An older looking man said, making me look at him. ''Who are you?''  I ask him and he comes closer. ''I am Octandria, wizard of the attunes'' He says. ''Wizard of the what?'' I ask. ''Wizard of the attunes'' He replies. ''What are you doing here? What is going on?'' I ask very confusedly. ''Years ago, there were these people called 'The attunes'. Every attune had a speciality. Some were a fire att, an earth att, a metal att, a wood att, air or water att. But there was this rare breed of attunes called 'The Octans'. From there, my name'' He says. ''Okay, but what does that mean and what is happening to me?'' I ask.

''You, you are an Octan'' He says. ''What?'' I ask confusedly. ''What is happening to your hands, is that you are creating heat. Octans are a mix of all six attunes and are immortal'' He says. ''Wait, so you're saying I'm an Octan and basically can't die?'' I ask and he nods. ''Holy shit'' I say, running my hand through my hair. ''Well, can you teach me how I use all of these powers?'' I ask Octandria. ''I can but you'll have to focus a lot. Do not get distracted'' He says and I nod quickly. 

''Let's begin with your Air abilities'' He says. ''Focus on this cloth and try to blow it away '' He says and points to a cloth on the ground. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. Opening my eyes, I focus on the cloth and I see it move slowly. I stop and the cloth drops. 

''Excellent'' Octandria says. He gets a pole of steel out of nowhere and holds it out. ''Just hold it'' He says, pushing the pole into my hand.  I hold it and it looks like it's about to melt. Then, the pole slowly melts into my hand and soon is all liquid. ''Woah'' was all I could say. I look over at Octandria and he had a shocked face. ''Why are you shocked?'' I ask him because he's like the wizard. ''No one has ever mastered 2 powers this fast'' He answers. ''What does this mean?'' I ask, cleaning my hand and a part of my arm where the metal melted. 

''Toni, you are the chosen one''
