Chapter 2
As the darkness enveloped Thenza once again he wasn’t as worried at all as he knew what was happening he lay immobile against the nothingness and tried to sleep to pass the hours and hours of time that were flowing past him but to no avail. He waited and waited not able to pass the time until he popped back into reality in an apparently metal room, everything completely chrome. As he looked around he saw his friends who had appeared, each on one circle identically like the one that he appeared on and just like the ones that were in the room that they had all appeared in earlier.
“Lucia, Rothan and… Teflon! But… Still no Neath.” Thenza observed
“Don’t worry Thenza, he’s probably freaking out and trying to get us all out.” Rothan comforted him.
“Yeah but that doesn’t make me feel any better.” Thenza retorted
But before he could continue, the voice of the mysterious man interrupted him
“As of today you will be stripped of all your current weapons and armour. You will be provided with a simple set of black clothes and a wooden weapon that matches the one that you would normally use” The voice explained.
“What about my Excalibur!? I had like four hundred levels on that thing!” someone down the hall shouted.
“gee, that must hurt” Rothan winced, feeling very glad that he had left his javelin (nicknamed ‘Spikes’) at home.
“However, in the time that the tournament takes you will be able to upgrade these weapons and armour however you like” The voice continued.
And from a shower of sparks came a package, levitating in place above them they all reached out to touch them they absorbed into their bodies.
They all checked their menus.

Sure enough all of their armour was now black cloth and their weapons had become wooden
“You shall now be transported back to your room.” the voice, that had now been identified as Salvador diablo said. as the inky blackness consumed them, this time only taking a few minutes to transport them back to the room they started in.
“So how do we plan on upgrading these?” Thenza asked, referring to ioithe armour and weapons.
“we could build them up with our elements” Lucia stated.
“true, any idea how?” Thenza said
“We could infuse them with elements” Teflon figured
“And I know how” Rothan finished.
“You do!?, you should have told us” Thenza exclaimed
“What, I didn’t find any use for it.” Rothan retorted.
“Anyway shall we?” Thenza ended the conversation
“Yeah sure” Teflon said
They all gathered around Rothan
“Alright everyone, fire the smallest bit of your element into my palm” Rothan directed
They all obliged, Thenza shot solid air into his palm, lucia shot ice and Teflon shocked it, all of them shocking Rothan a bit.
But in the end Rothan managed to combine their elements into a ball that slowly hovered in his hands.
“Aicatie Keshran!” Rothan chanted
The ball rose from his hands and so did the wooden weapons they all carried. Quickly Thenza snatched all of the weapons out of the air, and used his element to create solid air copies of them. Lucia and Teflon both gave him a confused look and he looked back with a look that said “I’ll explain later.” They both shrugged their shoulders and excepted his explanation.
The ball expanded into a disc about a metre wide and just about as thin as a grain of sand, however it shimmered like a mother of pearl shell. All of the weapons collected under the disc and the disc came down stretching around all the weapons and giving them a slight glow.
“so, is it done?” Thenza asked
“it should be” Rothan answered
“awesome.” Thenza finished as he picked up his newly enchanted weapon
Lucia then proceeded to pick up her bow and quiver of arrows, then Teflon followed suit and finally Rothan plucked his javelin out of the air.
“One problem, these are going to be incredibly easy to lose.” Rothan said, referring to the fact that the weapons were almost invisible apart from the glow.
“True, but I have the ability to compress them into containers, plus, they weigh almost nothing” Thenza explained.
“That’s… Awesome” Lucia admitted
“Yeah anyone got jars I could put these in?” Thenza asked
“I do; I keep a few test tubes with screw on lids for emergencies” Teflon answered
“That’s great! can I use eight of them?” Thenza asked
“I don’t see why not.” Teflon answered as he handed 8 of his test tubes over to Thenza
Thenza then immediately took some time to compress each weapon into a test tube and then looked at the remaining test tubes wondering what to do with them. Then he got an incredible idea
“Hey everyone, can you all fill one of these tubes with a bit of your element?” Thenza asked
“ok” they all said in unison and proceeded to do so.
“may I ask why?” Lucia asked
Thenza then replied with.
“see now we have elemental bombs!”
