"A lot of help she is," Eva mumbled as she slipped her phone back into her pocket. Deep wrinkles of thought and worry lined Genoa's face. Since picking up Juliana's cellphone, she hadn't stopped pacing up and down the street. She did pause as Eva finished her call. "Nothing?" "Nel was using the armored hunter's blood to track them, assuming it is that hunter again. He died. Plus her vision was slipping as well. She only really was able to watch them thanks to her watching them non-stop since they did…-

"And-- Ohh!" Hank cried with a wince. "There goes the scout from Mount Hope. Brakket Academy's scout showed absolutely no restraint." He glanced to the side. "A little rivalry after that last event?" "Perhaps," Zoe said, watching as the boy struggled against the fleshy bindings that pinned him to a tree. Neuro stood nearby, apparently basking in his victory. Though that wasn't quite right. It was just that the cameras didn't show exactly what was going on. To be fair, Zoe doubted that being there in…

"Welcome back to Brakket Magical Academy for another night of mystery and imagination. I'm your host, Hank Hanson, and with me is the lovely Zoe Baxter, professor of theory here at Brakket Academy." "Thank you, Hank," Zoe said, trying to keep her smile as natural as possible. "Now," he said, "for those of you just joining us, a quick recap of the last event and the purpose of this tournament as a whole." As he started speaking, Zoe started tuning him out. Not enough to completely ignore him. She…

Eva couldn't be more pleased with the way things were going. The second event was coming up in two days. She didn't have to participate in it. The ritual circle was nearly finished. It wouldn't be done by the time of the second event, but would definitely be done before the third. Especially if they decided to have a longer break between events for the December holidays. With Anise and Chris both helping, their progress had been through the roof. Of course, Eva still needed to find people for the…

Ylva and Nel popped into the room, hand in hand. Nel in her dark robes and Ylva in her white sheer dress. Eva jumped. Still leaning back in her chair with her feet propped up, she just about lost her balance and fell backwards. She managed to save herself with a quick blink to her feet just in front of the table. To the best of her memory, Ylva had never teleported on her own before. She didn't know why she hadn't expected her to be able to. Given Ylva's power level, it would be more surprising if…

"Oh no," Eva groaned. At first she had thought it was mere coincidence. People around school, especially those in her age group, often went to the same locations. As such, it shouldn't be too odd if some people followed her around all day. They visited the same classrooms or simply had class nearby. However, most people wouldn't walk around the school after class had ended for the day. Neither would they make three complete circuits without finding their destination. Even if they were from a foreign…

"Construction?" Neuro asked with a frown, toying with of the golden triangles that adorned the tips of the demon's long hair. "Yep. Building a house maybe," Eva said with a shrug. She couldn't really think up anything else it might be. Saija's eyes narrowed to thin slits, glancing off to one side to avoid looking at anyone. Her lips curled back into a teeth-clenched grimace. "Building?" She nudged Irene in the side. "I told you we should have done that last event. How am I supposed to build…

Eva flopped over on her bed. "Ah, I'm tired," she mumbled to nobody in particular. Nobody else was around. Juliana and Shalise had gone over to Genoa's house to watch the event. Irene, Jordan, and Shelby were all there as well, along with Saija, Srey, and Vektul. A gathering that might have had Eva worried for their safety from demon hunters had she not been so tired. Especially because she was relatively certain that Genoa had participated in the event as an antagonist to one of the…

Eva didn't sit around to chat with Randal. A more in-depth questioning on what abilities his bound demon gave him could wait until after they had won this thing. She had a bad feeling. Nothing with any real reason behind it, just a chill up her spine. Blinking to the base of the pyramid, Eva hesitated for a second. The stairwell was still a smooth earthen slide. Rather than wait and see if Emily would reverse the staircase, she jumped. The bottom segment of the pyramid was the largest. She…

"And there goes group indigo." "A shame," Zoe said with a shake of her head. "They looked like they were doing so well." "When the tail swiped the... elf into the tree, I think the other two lost their nerves." "Indeed. Dragonkin are not to be taken lightly. Their scales can take a beating that even the finest suit of armor would have trouble holding up against. The students got a little overconfident when they managed to push it back. But if they would have stuck to their attacks rather than…
