A knock on their doors woke the selected students from their slumber, they were asked to dress up in the clothes provided by the industry and assemble outside.They were taken to a room similar to Thier classrooms back at school."I thought we weren't going to get our school work till the end of the day" a boy named Jordan said."Maybe, they want to teach us something else" His friend Mia replied."That sounds reasonable" A boy named Nolan chirped in.They took their seats and were soon joined by some unfamiliar faces, after a few minutes, a scientist they had come to know as Mr. Isaac walked into the room."Good morning students, I know you are wondering why you're here and why you are seeing some unfamiliar faces, well, all of you here are students selected from schools all over Eleanor and today i am going to be giving you a theoretical outline on what will happen here" Mr Isaac explained.He paused to gauge their reaction, seeing that they were following, he continued."I will fi
The next morning, Bruce woke up feeling slightly strained from the previous day's exercises, he stepped out of his room to take a little stroll around the area.He went to the building they were brought to on their first day, walking past the guards, he noticed there didn't even spare him a glance."It's because they don't see you as a threat" A voice came from behind.He turned around looking for the speaker, it was a blonde lady on glasses, she looked to be in her late twenties."My name is Liana Kivan, Head of intelligence exchange" The lady said stopping beside Bruce."My name is Bruce Devin, not really head of anything but I am from Blue River Academy" Bruce responded."Nice to meet you Bruce, you should be resting, training gets most stressful on the 2nd and 3rd day" She advised."I am just taking a leisure stroll around" Bruce said."Well then, enjoy your tour" Miss Liana replied before going on with her business.Bruce made his way to the surveillance room making sure to tempo
As the exhausted student awoke from their slumber, they couldn't help but groan as they still felt slight aches but it wasn't something a few minutes of meditation couldn't fix.Dom had come over to Bruce's room to help out with the surveillance footage."It's all set now I just have to zoom through hours of footage from different individuals" Bruce said sipping some coffee."Anyway I can help?" Dom asked."Yeah, do you mind going for a run around the area, most the east and southern wing make sure to pass the front of every camera" Bruce replied with a slight frown."Is something wrong?" Dom asked."I'm not sure yet that's why I need you to go on the run or more of a fast paced stroll" Bruce replied.Dom jogged out of the room towards the east wing waving and smiling at the staffs he saw like he was out on a casual run.As he approached the edge of the south wing, he felt drawn to the top on an elevated plane surrounded by some trees."This places feels so serene" Dom said to himself
A few hours later, the robots powered down confusing the students, when the compartment walls slid away, they understood that training was done for the day.An expression of shock appeared on everyone's face when they noticed two damaged fighter bots on the ground and one destroyed compartment."What happened here?" Williams asked."Where are Bruce and Dom?" Nolan asked."Those two" Elena mumbled."It's been a long day go get some rest, tomorrow you will be required to stay in your residence throughout the day, you can visit the friends in the same residential building but you must not under any circumstances leave the main building" Mrs Catherine explained before dismissing them."Are you sure you are alright?" Mr Thales asked."I will be fine Thales, we will need rest as well, tomorrow's going to be a long day" Mrs Catherine said before walking away.As she approached her lodge, images flashed through her mind, a young lady could be seen leading warriors on the Frontline, wrecking h
The morning met most of the workers at Alphite Industries on a good note, even though the arrival of their major sponsors and shareholders made them all a bit nervous, they were confident that their current progress would be enough to keep them happy.Mr Thales had spent the night in Mrs Catherine's Lodge and this didn't go unnoticed by the others, they whispered and murmured as both individuals walked towards Mr Thales's lodge."Don't mind them, they have too much free time on their hands that's why they have the time to gossip" Mr Thales said."I never do, thanks for staying with me last night" Mrs Catherine said."It's alright, give me a minute to change up" Mr Thales said disappearing into his lodge."Must have been an interesting night" Someone said behind her."Good morning to you too Gideon" Mrs Catherine said ignoring the comment."I always knew there something fishy with the way you hover around each other" Mr Gideon said."Let me guess, you believe you have it all figured ou
"Let me get this straight, you want us to split up and go on different dangerous missions?" Elena asked."Yeah, look if we let them escape with those inventions, who knows the horrors they will make it into, probably more mage killing devices that's for sure" Jason replied."Well, does anyone else have a better idea?" Dom asked."Looks like we are going with your plan" Elena sighed.She was of the opinion that they should firstly rescue the trapped scientists then before attempting to stop the theft but she knew there was a chance the truck would be gone by the time they were done saving the scientist."How about we just go stop the theft first then those who still have energy to fight will go rescue the trapped scientists after all they aren't going anywhere?" Bruce said suggesting a compromise."That could work" Brutus said surprising some students."Don't give me that look, we have to do what has to be done or we never go back to school again" Brutus snorted.They made their way
The scientist were too busy panicking amongst themselves to notice all three exits being pried open only when they heard two consecutive bangs from the left and right did they quiet down amongst themselves.From the left came Bruce, Dom, Jackson, Lilia and Davis. From the right appeared Elena, Jason, Mia, Elias and Bethany.A brief silence followed as most could not believe they were being saved by a bunch of academy kids.While they were still in awe the Emergency door burst open revealing Brutus, Nolan, William, Mark and Nathan."Good evening everyone, please let's gently exit the building so we can get help" Bruce announced.The scientists obliged, forming double lines they exit the building from all sides, it was then Bruce remembered something he had wanted to report, gathering with the others, they left to find Mr Thales and Mrs Catherine."Bruce, why the rush?" Dom asked as they were struggling to keep up with him."The key codes, I found a match" Dom replied."There they are"
At the crack of dawn, the extra security called in by the sponsors and shareholders had arrived along with individuals from the Military Mage Association (MMA), some individuals from the respective academies were also present.The MMA officials began questioning everyone regarding what happened, all gave account except Mr Thales, Mrs Catherine and the students, Mr Thales had insisted that Bruce be the one to share their side of the story.After a few hours of waiting, Bruce was strong enough to move about he was summoned before the MMA and the others to give account on what happened.Bruce explained to them how he got into the database, linked to the surveillance room with Elena's help, found out the faults of the camera with Dom's help, used Dom's idea to identify the culprits, used Nolan's help to avoid getting captured and rescue the others making sure to acknowledge Jackson for protecting them before they deduced a plan to stop the theft and rescue the scientist then talking to Mr
