"It's time, the North and South school meeting event, i am so excited" thought Andrej while sitting in a chariot with Anya, Mateja, Katarina and Ivan.

"Why are you dozing off?" said Katarina and hit Andrej on the head, which awakened him from his deep thoughts.

"Huh, what happened?" asked Andrej.

"Your friend is looking for you" said Ivan.

"Who could that be?" thought Andrej, then a raspy voice was heard from outside of the cart.

"Ah, Andrej boy, how are you on this fine day?" said Grisha, who was the charioteer again.

"Oh, it's him"

"Good afternoon, it's been a while"

"Boy, i see you brought friends with you this time" said Grisha.

"Who would be a friend of his?" said Ivan with a small laugh.

"Please stop with those cranky jokes please" said Grisha with a serious tone.

"He is reading you like a open book"

"He is right, idiot" added Anya.

"Besides, have you heard about…."

"Never heard. Who are you?" said Grisha and Mateja's whole world fell apart.

"But mister.."

"We have arrived" Grisha announced and the five of them were magically kicked out of the chariot, before Grisha disappeared again.

"Ah, he never changes" said Andrej.

"What is his problem?" asked the other four.

"You will get used to it"

They finally arrived at the South magic school, which was identical to the north in size and style, except the towers were blue instead of red. The entire entrance was filled with lots of stands with lots of different products for sale, from wooden swords and shields, to different sweets and foods. Many jesters and acrobats from across the world were having live performances accompanied by live music.

"It sure is lively here" commented Katarina in awe.

"Hey girl, wanna have some fun with us?" asked a random drunk guy who was really close to Anya's face.

"Aahh, get away from me idiot!" shouted Anya while trying to run away.

"Mister, can you do me a favor, go and tell me if i am over there?" Ivan said while pointing in a random direction, then the drunk guy left in a daze, and Ivan grabbed Anya's hand, who became red as a tomato.

"Hey, we are going to look around here, you go we will catch up to you" said Ivan.

"Hey, who decided that!" shouted Anya.

"Me"

"Have fun you two!" shouted the other three, before going in their direction.

"Ah, how lovely" Andrej and Katarina thought in unison.

"Ah, young love, so pure and pretty" said Mateja.

"What are you talking about?"

"You are the youngest one here"

"Now, don't be rude, i read that in a book" said Mateja, trying to defend himself.

"Whatever you say"

"By the way, let's go to that hill" said Katarina and pointed towards a nearby small hill "We agreed to wait for Ivan and Anya there"

Then from behind the corner, an enormous aura could be felt which sent chills in the trio's spines, and made them freeze in place. A pale woman with dropped eyes passed by them, she wore something which looked like a wedding dress, and you couldn't see her legs while she walked.

"I can't move" Andrej thought.

"Mateja, do not try to act heroic now" said Katarina and the woman suddenly disappeared, and the air returned to normal.

"What just happened" asked Andrej.

"I am not sure, but i hope we never run into her again" said Katarina with a lingering fear in her voice.

"I agree with you"

Then a loud voice could be heard, boasting about becoming the greatest knight the country has ever seen.

"Ugh! I can't stand this nonsense" yelled Mateja.

"What? You cannot accept the fact that there is someone better than you huh?" Katarina teased.

"That's right!"

"Wait, i know that voice, it's Konrad" Andrej realised.

"Quick, i must find out who disturbs my heroic presence" said Mateja as he ran towards the hill.

"Shall we?" asked Katarina.

"Of course" answered Andrej.

"Let's go partner and young lady" they ran over to the hill where Konrad was with his group, boasting about knights, before Mateja ran and bumped into him.

"What do you want?" Asked Konrad who looked at Mateja with anger.

"Shut up! Knights are bullshit, i will be the greatest hero of this kingdom!" shouted Mateja.

"Huh? Hero? Don't make me laugh, knights are infinitely cooler!" shouted Konrad back and they argued endlessly.

"Not this again" commented the two girls behind Konrad.

"You too?" asked Katarina.

"Yeah"

"Hey Andrej, can i kick your friend's ass?" asked Konrad.

"Oka… wait no, no!"

"Yes, let us see who is better!" yelled Mateja and took a stance.

"Yes" replied Konrad and took a stance too.

"Fireball" said Mateja, and a fireball shot out of his hand aimed at Konrad's head.

"Double wave slash" Two horizontal slashes of water shot out of Konrad's blade and neutralised the fireball, leaving steam behind.

"Underwater" a geyser appeared and knocked Mateja into the air, then Konrad jumped to try and kick Mateja while he was in the air, but Mateja managed to dodge, and in midair put his foot on Konrad's body and pin him down on the earth.

"Well that escalated quickly" thought Andrej while watching the fight.

"Hey you two!" called the two girls.

"Yes?" answered Andrej.

"While we have time, let's have a quick round" said one of the girls.

"Good idea, the loser pays for the drinks after the ceremony" said Katarina.

"Bet" answered the other girl. "By the way, my name is Maya"

"Andrej, and this is Katarina"

"Hi"

"And my name is Alexandra"

All four of them introduced themselves, and ran towards each other.
