Lamar, Penn, and I had chosen to wear black tracksuits. Everyone was offered a color theme, and we picked the pure black ones with only a red cross on our shoulders.
The other teams had already performed, and they did terribly. I arrived at the ground with hopes that the test wouldn’t be so difficult. But as the first three teams were beaten to a pulp by the monster, my confidence started to shake.

There were three cages--long, cylindrical ones that stretched across the entire ground.

"I guess," I muttered, watching as Gavin, Lucy, and Jenny’s team prepared, along with two more teams.
"I hope they do well," I wished, as the others had failed miserably. My heartbeat was honestly rising with every passing minute.
