Chapter 23

The candidates were introducing themselves on the stage, while everyone was waiting for their turn.

"Contestant number 15!"

Sera confidently walked her way through the stairs, she walked like she own the world at the center of the stage Harold was walking towards her at the other end. And when they finally meet at the center, they strike a pose making everyone in the auditorium cheer their names.

They both walked forward towards the mic and started to introduce themselves.

Sera made a courtesy before speaking.

"Seraphina Kagura Vescara 19!" Harold followed her.

"Harold Romero 19!" And then they both said with pride and confidence.

"Proudly representing GAS 12 Section A!"

"That's my lady!"

"Magnifique! mademoiselle!"

"C'est Notre fille!"

Everyone was screaming but Sera still heard those familiar accents, she didn't have the time to search her eyes around because they had to exit, but Sera was sure that the three sulking at her were watching her on stage.

After all of the candidates were done introducing themselves, She was quickly assisted in her room to change her dress and wore her Sports attire with complete props and make-up.

"Next up is our candidates' Sports attire! Let us welcome back Contestant number one on stage!"

Sera didn't leave her room even if they were all done fixing her, she wanted to see every candidate's reaction when they saw her, same with Harold which Sera had texted not to come out unless their numbers had been called.

While everyone outside was praising and saying that Megan had a nice figure with her sports attire, yes she was pretty and sexy making her smirk at herself.

Everyone noticed that Sera was still not on the line not until the MC called on to number 14.

The staff that was assisting everyone knocked on Sera's door but no one answered.

"Contestant number 15!"

That's when the door to Sera's room opened and everyone covered their mouths in amazement and shock.

Megan was also amazed at Sera's appearance.

Sera looked like a badass woman ready to shoot anyone on the head. Her confidence doubled.

Her hazelnut hair which was curled, seemed to be flaring flames, ready to burn anyone who touches it, making Sera look more fierce.

With a simple black fitted crop top, black leather pants, and a pair of black army boots. On her arms was a riffle.

Sera ignored their stares, as she continued to walk to the stage, while Megan gritted her teeth in annoyance.

Smoke filled the whole stage as Harold and Sera walked towards the center and took their poses.

And when the smoke dispersed, everyone screamed again.

"Shoot me! Shoot me!"

"Shit! This might be the best sports olympiad ever!"

"It's a love shot!"

Harold was wearing a black turtle neck, the neck part was made as a mask to cover half of his face, a black leather jacket, black pants, a pair of black combat boots, and a black cap.

In his arms was a sniper.

Imagining themselves as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, they walked on stage as if they were in an action movie being filmed. Sera looking fierce and Harold looking hot, they had finally left the stage, to prepare their selves for the next outfit. The casual wear.

Meanwhile, Megan and Troy were on the stage flashing their smiles and using their whip props as how cowboys and cowgirls do. Megan was scheming something on her mind, without Troy knowing about anything.

'Let's wait and see,'

The three men on the other hand were still sulking at Sera, but they still couldn't take not seeing and protecting her, especially now that it was Sera's birthday today. A lot of nakaras are attracted to her, and she still had to receive her gift from the Divinity.

They tried to tell her before her birthday comes, but Sera was busy the past few weeks and they were sulking at her.

Cloud sighed at how confident Sera is on stage, maybe because she had 'that' kind of blood flowing into her veins.

But they couldn't erase the fact that they are irritated by the liberated clothes Sera had been wearing on stage, showing off her skin to many men, they can't help but made their hands into fists.

They'll make sure to punish their sweet little Sera after everything is done, for now. Her safety is their priority.

"Alright! Now! Before we proceed let us have an intermission number!" A group of students went on stage and an upbeat music was playing on the speakers.

Sera was practicing her voice for their talent, after the casual wear in her room.

"I'm sure you'll win the talent! Your voice is so nice!" It was Naja who was being dressed, after all, she was last year's queen and she has to turn it over to the laters winner.

"Your mom must be so proud of you," the hairstylist said as she was fixing Naja's hair. Naja quickly nudges the woman's stomach to shut her up.

"Yeah, she was," Sera said with sadness in her eyes, but that quickly vanished after the upbeat music outside died.

"I can't wait for this to end! After this, we'll go to our house and have a party!" Naja danced on her sit making the hairdresser frown in annoyance.

Sera abruptly stopped Naja before the hairstylist could smack her head, and went outside.

Standing in the line, Megan began to speak to her.

"You look wonderful Sera! I liked what you did on your Sportswear, by the way, it was awesome! You looked like a badass woman, ready to kick some asses." Megan even slapped her shoulders, but not the normal slap. It was a slap so forceful you could fall out of balance and land with your head first on the floor. But Sera was quick to grab Megan's wrist before she could even fall to the ground.

"Yeah," Sera smiled fakely for the first time as she tries to fix herself.

"Oh, I'm so sorry about that. Are you okay?"

"Yes I'm fine, gotta go." It was luck that was on her side, Sera quickly left the line and went to the stage with Harold.

While Megan who was left on the line with the rest of the candidates glared at Sera's back. She quickly took her phone from her purse, which was her props, and dialed a number.

"Make sure no one else is inside before going in, once everything is clear, leave and never show your face on me." She quickly ended the call and returned her phone to her purse.

'I'm not letting you steal my crown Sera.'
