My girly side thought it was cute that he was getting all jealous over me. Or it could have been the male half of me, I couldn't really tell the difference at this point.
I was excited about this test, curious as to what requirements would have to be met.
I figured we'd be fighting one another for sure, but I couldn't calculate how a quick fight would determine our casting skills.
The front doors to the gymnasium closed, catching our attention.
The intercom above came on, making a beeping noise before a voice came through the speaker.
"Good afternoon. Welcome to the entrance test for Brighten Magic Academy. This examination will determine the following: your rank placement, estimated magic level, dorm placement, designated partner, designated group, and four club options to apply for. Please take note, cheating is NOT allowed. Your wands whether used or not will limit your magic usage and will inhibit you from using spells not approved for entrance level fights. When the bell rings, the winners will be determined. The test will last for a total of five minutes. Begin."
"Wait... what?" Logan asked.
"No wait time,” the mixed guy huffed, approaching our group with the two others following him.
We stood facing each other, wondering exactly what we had to do.
"Are we supposed to fight each other?" one of the two similar looking boys asked.
He had dark purple hair, unlike his close counterpart who had navy blue hair.
"If we had to fight one another, they wouldn't have put us in teams of three,” he spoke calmly but looked nervous.
"You think they would give better instr—“ the taller guy began, but was cut off as our bodies began to float upward.
"Huh?!" I called out, my body feeling as light as a feather.
Logan and Nixon exchanged looks before grabbing each other’s hand and then reaching out to grab mine. Nixon's hand reached mine first, stopping me from drifting further apart from them. He pulled me to them and Logan grabbed my other hand.
We all looked up at the approaching ceiling.
"Why did they get rid of gravity?" I asked.
"I don't know. I don't get how this is a test." Logan looked perplexed.
"Who knows how to use wind?" Nixon wondered.
I lifted my gaze to stare at him; his eyes were focused on the ground below .
"Why? Jinn is good at it," Logan confessed.
I gave him a look but didn't argue. I could easily support us if I had to, but I didn't see why we'd need the wind element, to begin with.
"They're gonna change the environment. Be prepared and try not to get separated," Nixon instructed.
"Have you done this before?" I asked.
He lifted his gaze to meet mine.
Instead of their original black appearance, his eyes were red, little black magic circles floating in his irises.
"Nope, but I have a good hunch what we have to do to win and I really want to finish so I can take a nap." He gave me a small grin and I smirked, feeling his words were absurd but my instincts told me he knew exactly what he was saying.
"WATCH OUT!"
All three of us looked to our left to see a row of flaming arrows heading in our direction. The other three guys were further up, avoiding the onslaught of arrows but if we didn't move quickly, we’d be pierced by them in seconds.
"WIND!”I commanded, and our bodies were lifted further up, narrowly avoiding the arrows.
