A Bit Of Peace Before The Storm

[ultima]

"Now that we got the teams done you should all probably go to your rooms to strategize or get to know each other better."

[ultima]

"Actually i have a better idea."

"What could that be ulti."

"Yeah what could that be."

[parker]

"(they're getting familiar with her already, I'm seriously starting to cringe right now)"

[ultima]

"Everyone grab your things and hold onto them, and do it now, I don't like waiting."

"Like this."

[ultima]

"Just hold on to them however you usually do."

[parker]

"(I wonder what she's gonna do)"

[ultima]

"Y'all ready."

"I am."

"Facts me too."

[ultima]

"Ok then bye bye"

[parker]

"(what does she mean by that. Wait what the hell where am-)"

"ahhhhhhhhhhh . where, where, where am I."

[parker]

"Who are you."

"Who are, wait oh i get it now. Yeah now i know what's going on, so you must be Parker right."

[parker]

"Yeah that's me, now who might you be. Ohhh I get it now, then you must be markus right."

[markus]

"Yeah that's me."

[parker]

"Nice to meet you."

[markus]

"Nice to meet you too."

[parker]

"So how did we just end up, well the more i think about it, yep she definitely teleported us."

[markus]

"Yep just like that, hey this room doesn't look half bad. It has everything we need, well we ain't gonna stay for long anyways so that doesn't really matter."

[parker]

"(damn this is a nice couch) Wait, shouldn't we be thinking up strategies and some tips and tricks on how we can get more points."

[markus]

"Don't worry, I was already thinking about that because of my ability."

[parker]

"What type of ability is it."

[markus]

"Well it enhances my brain power and allows me to think more clearly. Think of it as well how should i put it, oh i know multitasking to the extreme"

[parker]

"That sounds really convenient. Kinda wish i had that but ehh i'll make do with what i have."

[markus]

"What do you have as an ability."

[parker]

"I don't really have one. Well i guess you can say i'm abnormal."

[markus]

"Hmm well ok. Hey what do you say we go to the gym, we got time."

[parker]

"Yeah sure let's go. I feel like warming up a bit more."

[markus]

"Alright follow me."

[parker]

"Oh you know the way, cool."

[markus]

"Yeah I do. I remember the layout of this place and it's pretty simple, the gym is also fairly close too, close to the waiting rooms."

[parker]

"You knew about them."

[markus]

"Yeah i knew, i just decided not to go. Another right and yep here we are."

[parker]

"(how do people know these things and i don't) wow this place is a lot bigger than i thought it would be."

[markus]

"Yeah i expected it to be a bit smaller but the bigger the better am i right."

[parker]

"For sure, i can't wait to warm up a bit more."

[markus]

"Same. hey wanna have a quick jog at the track."

[parker]

"Yeah sure. I was actually about to go there myself."

[markus]

"Oh ok. Hey what about a race."

[parker]

"Yeah sure, that could be fun,."

[markus]

"Ok on your marks... get set.. G- (what the hell is this speed).

[parker]

"let me slow down a bit, I got a little too excited.

[markus]

"It's fine now i can clearly see how fast you really are, and now that i know you're pretty fast i can now implement it into our new strategy.

[parker]

"What new strategy."

[markus]

"One that involves points. From the data I collected from ultimas explanation we can now make multiple strategies and come up with tricks that we can use to our own advantage.

[parker]

"Oo what type of tricks."

[markus]

"Although these strategies are gonna make others fail it would be in our best interest."

[parker]

"Look markus I know you wanna pass and we all do, but if this strategy messes up other people's chances at passing then sorry to say it but no. I'm just not that type of guy."

[markus]

"Ok that sounds reasonable, since your morales would be tested by doing this strategy then I won't do it. That being said I'll respect your decision but on one condition."

[parker]

"What may that condition be."

[markus]

"That both of us will still pass no matter what."

[parker]

"That's simple enough. Alright I'll give it everything I got and that's a promise. Do you promise you'll do the same."

[markus]

"Obviously I'll do the same. Me and you will be a great team."

[parker]

"I have high hopes now. We got this for sure man."

[markus]

"Yep we're gonna be one of if not the best team out there.hey we've been here for quite a bit, you wanna go back to our waiting room or do you wanna stay here for a bit more."

[parker]

"Well what are you gonna do."

[markus]

"Markus well I was planning on heading back."

[parker]

"Ok, ima just stay here a bit longer. You can head back early if you want."

[markus]

"Alright then see you later."

[parker]

"Yeah later."

[parker]

"(hmm he's right though we have been here for a bit and depending on the time the test should start at about 8:30 ish. I should ask someone for the time now. Oh someone's working out over there, I'll go to ask them)"

[parker]

"Sorry for bothering you but do you know what time it is."

"Can't you check on your device … oh it's you."

[parker]

"Oh yeah its you uh-"

[elizabeth]

"Elizabeth, the names elizabeth. Now what is your name."

[parker]

"My names parker."

[elizabeth]

"Nice to meet ya."

[parker]

"Nice to meet you too. Hey the test's probably gonna start soon so we should probably head back to our waiting rooms. And can you help me check the time with this."

[elizabeth]

"Sure no problem, all you gotta do is tap the screen twice."

[parker]

"ok oh."

[elizabeth]

"Oh look it's 8:29."

[parker]

"Oh ok thanks for the he-"

"Aaaaaaahhhh"

"What the."

[parker]

"(did ultima really just teleport us back. Without warning)

[ultima]

"Welcome back everyone, I hope you all had the time to think up of strategies and to most importantly get ready."

[ultima]

"Oh and I'm sorry about the teleporting thing but it's a real time saver."

[ultima]

"Now any other questions or concerns before we start."

[parker]

"(Damn it's finally starting. The thing I've been excited and fearful about. Jeez I feel a bit nauseous but also a bit relieved. It's come to this moment and this moment alone. This is the major test, figuratively and literally. Oh what am I blabbering on about, I sound so weird. Let's just get this over with so that I can be one step closer to surpassing pops)"

[ultima]

"None alrighty then. Let's start the test."
