Without warning, The smartly suited magician removed his top hat, and upon doing so, the floor started to shine a bright egg – white. Although he was using his powers, The surrounding runes never activated.
Why?
Because he was a teacher. Unlike students: teachers, nurses, referees and security guards were granted full permission to use their powers around the stadium. Naturally, this was to be done only during times of emergency or necessity for their betterment.
Just as the white light enveloped Mr. Abrams’s surroundings…
…
…
…
Noel took off in the other direction.
Noel: “NO!! I said I need to go to the bathroom, I can barely hold it!!”
Mr. Abrams: “...(Could I be wrong? Perhaps he ...does.. need to go? Dammit, I can never tell with that family! This is the exact reason that I prefer working with the Ericsons! For the most part...they’re honest!)… If you’re serious, then I don’t mind taking you. Just come back before I change my mind.”
Noel: “REALLY?! Oh tha---
Wait.
No.
I’ve felt this before…
You’re trying to trick me!
Huhuhu, too bad for you Mr. Abrams, I have a lot of experience with dealing with tricksters. You’re just trying to send me back! Well I’m not falling for it! Not until I can--”
Mr. Abrams: “If you don’t get over here in the next 5 seconds, I WILL take you back to your seat.”
*Vwoosh!*
Noel: ”What are you waiting for Mr. Abrams, I’m ready. Let’s hurry up so I can go ‘cause I’m about to explode!”
Mr. Abrams: “….”
…
Meanwhile, elsewhere…
Gravity Queen: “…’Stop bothering them fake queen’ ‘Begone fake queen’
…’Fake queen is terrible for getting in the way of Rage queen’s Proposal’
…
…
Why… WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME?!
I get it, what I did wasn’t ‘Hero-Like’… but still! I trained for this position and I gave up everything for it! EVERYTHING!!”
*Bang!*
?: “Calm down, little one. You’ll get another chance: see? Read this text message your school’s Principal sent me a moment ago.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...it says ’Your idea is sound. I see nothing wrong with allowing the 10 Kings to appear on stage’?! But… But what about my detention?”
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
?: “You’ll just have to continue it afterwards. You should have already expected as much. I know you despise him, but attacking him when he’s down was really low.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “….You say that...but didn’t YOU order miss Rage Queen to embed a fragment of her power into his soul? Thanks again, ma’am. I am truly appreciative~!”
Ma’am?: “Haaah, I didn’t have any other choice! That damn fool wouldn’t bow to my granddaughter no matter WHAT we thought of doing. Every prediction kept on repeating the same response:… ‘You shall not rule over me.’ Infuriating piece of crap! So much for the heroes protecting him, he’s better off dead!
...Sorry, maybe not THAT far…
But Still! All three top positions MUST be claimed by Nilia, YOU, and that Tetra child who will need to try and somehow overcome the damned third ranked Child Pharaoh – Painter.
Prince of shades is out of commission now, so next up will be Tetra’s turn. That was what’s SUPPOSED to happen anyway: but you went and…. complicated things.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...Sorry. If only I never lost to that random kid that laughed at me, the Ericson guy. I wouldn’t be known online as a fake queen or a false king.”
Ma’am: “...Never you mind that one, darling. His background isn’t something you can mess with. Just pretend he doesn’t exist the next time you meet him. The Ericsons are just that powerful. Don’t you tell anybody I said this to you either, because I’ll be quick to deny it.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “But this time it wasn’t my fault! That damned Pig on her damned channel! If ONLY they weren’t there!! I would’ve been free to do as I pleased to...him…. So – so long as the rumors are false...”
Ma’am: “You’re still thinking about that? Move on, it will probably blow over somehow.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “It won’t, it will never blow over!! That video already surpassed 200 million views and fatty’s followers skyrocketed to 3 million! I’m only becoming more and more hated! I’ll kill her one of these days...sort of…”
Ma’am: “If you pull another stunt like this one and try to get revenge, but end up with bad reputation once again, then I’ll switch you out for Valkyrie.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “Don’t you worry, ma’am. I promise that I won’t do something like this anytime soon!”
Ma’am: “Good.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...What was your idea about anyways? You said something to him about the 10 Gen. Leaders making an appearance?”
Ma’am: “My proposal...it was already accepted by that fool so he should be scheduling an announcement about it shortly. I guess it’s alright to share the new event with you right now. But do remember! So long as you continue ‘supporting’ my granddaughter Nilia, I will continue to help you out. Should you ever disobey her… You’ll be cut, and I’ll return you back to the sticks.
Do I make myself clear?!”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “*Nods*”
Ma’am: “With that out of the way, let me share to you my grand proposal. Pretty soon: The 10 Kings of Hero High will first accept any and all challenges to their crowns. These will be true battles only, not races or sports competitions. And you, my dear… thanks to that video: you can prove yourself once and for all, as the true 2nd King by continuously winning.
After that I requested you all to have a series of mock battles against the other kings. This will take place just as long as you keep on winning.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...But what if I lose?”
Ma’am: “*makes cutting noise*”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...Okay..Okay! I trained for this: I can do it!! Ever since I heard of the 10 Gen. Leaders I knew I could be one too, and I strived tirelessly for it – I won’t lose! Not even to King Rhys! Not even to the Rage Queen!”
Ma’am: “Don’t be stupid, you ain’t beating my granddaughter. You just keep your dreams realistic and do your best.”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “O-Okay…”
Ma’am: “’Beat the rage queen’ – Ha! Keep dreaming!”
Gravity Queen Savannah: “...”
…
As the old woman mentioned previously, an official announcement was made pertaining to the change of plans, immediately succeeding a series of sports events. They featured all kinds of strength and speed users, sound manipulators flight experts elementalists and teleporters all competing in basketball, baseball, Frisbee, tennis, American football, soccer and more. It was truly a wonderful sight to watch.
Random crowd sports fan #1: ”Wow. Damn, that was cool. I can’t wait to actually come see this year’s pick for the freshman sports team.”
Random crowd sports fan #2: “Yeah, haha. This shit is real good! Laser blasts and wind control, or even Flight and levitation powers. It’s always a riot! Yahahaha!”
Random crowd attendee #1: “No, it’s boring. This isn’t even that entertaining it only shows who out of the kids down there is clever and who has a head made of dirt. I want action! Bring on the beautiful girls fighting each other!!”
Random crowd attendee #2: ”...Ew. I was gonna agree with you about this whole ‘sports’ thing being a boring snooze-fest, but not after that last piggish statement.”
…….
And back at the original room where Mr. Abrams is officially staying along with Elijah, Noel, and the self-invited Oliviera... A new face sporting a wavy black hairstyle with white horizontal streaks running through it has appeared.
?: “’Sup everybody! S’cuse me. Hey Elijah! Hey random girl~ Pardon *Yawns* me~”
Elijah: “Excuse me, umm-- oh, it’s just you.”
Oliviera: “Uh-! Ra-RANDOM GIRL?! I AM A 2 MILLION AND STILL COUNTING POPULAR BLOGGER! Who are YOU to be calling me random-”
Alas, everything she said went in through one ear, and out the other as he scooted around her onto the free couch at the end of the room, kicked his shoes off and plopped himself upon it as if he had gone an extremely long time without ever feeling anything so soft. He nestled his face into the cushion and spoke in a slightly breathy tone.
?: “Aahhh~ this is pure… pure bliss~ *Yawn*
……
…
Zzzzz.”
Elijah: “...As usual. Haah, next he’ll be sleeping through everything humanly possible until that man comes. And when he comes...well, so will the lecture. How utterly typical of him to sneak away here. Hahahah – I probably should have expected it.”
Oliviera: “WHO THE- HEY! WHO THE HECK ARE YOU? THIS IS MR. ABRAMS’S ROOM HOE DARE YOU JUST WALK ON IN HERE, UNINVITED!”
Elijah: “It’s okay Oliviera. Take a good look at his face. As a MAJOR fan of the original 10 Gen. Leaders, don’t tell me that you don’t recognize him?”
Oliviera: “...Am I SUPPOSED to know who this lazy slob of a…
Slob of a…
Slob of a…
*Gasps*
