The Academy Selections Part 5

High above the venue where the Selections would soon be held, Saylin sat in his VIP box wearing a troubled expression. On one of the many floating screens, he watched Cynrik and his party walking through a group of kids in Zone-B before stopping at the waypoint between Zone-A and Zone-B.

If it were simply a dispute between children, he wouldn't have been troubled as it frequently occurred around the venue. However, as someone who had been receiving detailed reports on the boys for years, Saylin was aware of the most recent trouble Cynrik had found himself in. So, after doing a quick background check on the group of kids lying unconscious, Saylin quickly found out that their parents all worked for one of the several holding companies owned by the Opurn family.
