Red was great fun, but also scary. Very scary. I was worried about Ryne though, he was distracted I won when we trained last week I had pinned him to the wall in 5 seconds flat. I then quizzed him on what was wrong and he told me that something was wrong with the teachers, that they where distracted. The bell woke me from my thoughts. It rang twice meaning we had to go to the hall. It was odd, as it was 6:30pm and the only time we had assembles was on Thursday. Mrs.Blackhurst stood at the front of the hall on the stage, looking out over us with a strange look on her face. "Sit everyone," she looked back to the wings" this is Andre, he is a fairy. He has come today to tell you about some most exciting and sad news." Onto the stage stepped a dark skinned fairy about 4ft tall with golden hair and brown eyes. Wearing beige skinnys and a purple blazer. With green shoes. Odd. " Welcome students, I am Andre. I have come to pick 10 students. Normally one of each kind, to be The Academy's team in the 25th Dragon Trials. The Funders and governors of the Triangle Schools, decide when we hold these and this year has been chosen. The Triangle Schools are The Academy, Green Hall and
The North Institution. The 10 students with compete in a month of battles and trials, known by survivors as, The Dragon Trials. These Trials are held on an island, shielded from humans, the only place wild dragons are found. The Creators, decide the trials the teams will face. The Trials happen in a months time. I will spend two weeks working with you all, and by then I will select my team. The last two weeks will be spent training as a team. Good Luck!" He exited to stage. There was a bubble of nervous chatter and excitement. The last Dragon Trails had been over 1000years ago. Mrs.B started to talk. "Quiet everyone, here I have your time table for the next 2 weeks. You will have a training partner in the group you are in. Goodbye, Good Luck." A flick of her fingers and there was sheet of paper in everyone's lap. "Ah yes I almost forgot, Red and Ryne I need to see you." I glanced at Ryne "I'm coming with you." I whispered. He nodded. I folded the paper on my lap and stood up. There was only a few people left in the hall, "come on, you lot we will meet you in Sofia's Den. Rose made some Oreo Brownies... Save some for me!" I said, I loved Sofia's Den, it had a calm aura to it. The school had given her a room to practice her spells as she kept blowing up things by accident. She had furnished it with cushions, fairy lights and candles. Different rocks and gemstones lined the wall. We approached Mrs.Blackhurst and she started to speak. Ryne interrupted " You want to talk to us about why Red and I shouldn't be aloud to compete, but you are going to say that because of the fact wolves normally go in two and there is always a odd one person that goes, that since some of the pureblood wolves are unmated we still have a chance." Mrs.B sighed puzzled, "How did you know?, I'm wearing a blocking stone." Ryne smirked "I guessed!"
