After everyone has warped into their team pods to choose the first event, they notice someone missing. Grian wasn't there; in his place, there was a piece of paper with a note written on it.
Iskall reaches over and picks it up reading it. By this time everyone has noticed the missing contestant. One of the admins comes over and reads the paper.
He calls another admin over and they speak in hushed voices until they read it to everyone, "To my dear contestants, I have temporarily borrowed one of your contestants. Worry not, he's not going to be harmed. He's been taken for we need to ask some questions. - WA," The admin reads, shrugging, "I say we wait for him to be returned. It looks like our watcher wants to talk to him. Don't worry about it, they like interviewing contestants sometimes, of course they wipe the memory after but we know it's them."
The members of EVO Catch each other's eyes and Grin, "He's managed to do it again," Solidarity laughs whispering to Little Wood.
Grian jumps up startled. He looks around the room he's in, it's huge. A voice from behind startles him, "Oh, good your up."
He looks over and it's a watcher, she has flaming red hair and a friendly smile, "I've got some questions for you, fledgling. First what's your name and who are your partners?"
"Uh, Grian, my partners are Rowan and Tilor."
"I'm Anala, my partners are Hyentae and Leandra. I know your partners," She asks a few more questions before she says, "I can't question you much longer, but here, take this," She hands him a small gem that glistens in the light, "It'll help with your magic problem. It should boost it enough to start your development."
"Thank you," Grian mutters as she gives him a side hug.
"All right, give your partner's my regards, and try to win the championship."
Grian nods as he's teleported to the pods.
Unfortunately, his team didn't win but he had fun, he met his friends again. met new people, and gained a way to help access his magic.
