Third Person’s POV   The two groups continued staring at each other even if the game had start. Nathan’s mouth formed a smirk as he slowly step in front and offered his hand to the president or the leader of Paranormal Hunters.   “Nathaniel Rosario...”   “Ulysses Kairo...” He took Nathan’s hand and shake it a little forcefully. They grip on tighter as they smirk at each other.   “Let the real battle begin...” Ulysses whispered and release a zap of lightning while holding Nathan. Nathan on the other hand, just held him tighter and stifle a laugh before stepping back without breaking eye contact.   “Electricity... Nice but... I know it’s not yours.” He slowly shifted his gaze to the man behind Ulysses who is glaring at him.   “Their leader named Ulysses’ ability is either to copy or be able to transfer powers and abilities. The guy behind him... I’m sure he’s the one who had the lightning powers so Gene...” Gene nodded and released a small ball of flame from his hands and play with it.   “Learn before you attack and always... Always work as a team.” He continued and they now shifted to the first position. -- “We already know their abilities but...” Ulysses stopped for a while and glance at the other team who was also having a meeting. He sighed and stared back at his teammates who were waiting for his command.   “We don’t know their capacities... We know their abilities but not their capacities. Not the extend of it so we must do our best to outsmart and out strength them in any ways, understand?” He asked and his members nodded as a response.   “Billy, you go for that fire guy...” Ulysses pointed at Gene who was playing fire ball in his hands while smirking at Billy. The latter did the same and released a small electric bolt from his hands and played with it.   “No worries, pres. I can handle him, easy as pie...” He commented. Ulysses shook his head and stared at the girl who gave TDP and PD the answer to the fourth riddle.   “Lexi...” The girl blew the gum she was chewing and spit it on the grass. She nodded and look at the other group, picking whom she will fight.   “I want her...” She pointed at Carina who was sharpening her arrows. She slowly lifted her gaze and saw Lexi staring at her. A smirk formed on her face and grab an arrow and put it on her bow. She made a fake releasing motion as if really targeting Lexi who immediately gets irritated and glared at her.   “Bitch...” She muttered. -- “That girl with glasses over there is Ameera and if I’m not mistaken, she has apotation or the ability to teleport. So who’s gonna take he—“   “I’ll be the one in charge of her...” Remus volunteered as she continue staring at the girl with long, black hair with little curls at the end. She was wearing glasses with thick frame but that doesn’t hinder Remus to see the beauty within her.   “Yes she may be kind but remember... This is a game and she is one hell of a competitive woman...” Mica reminded and walked near Maria to see whom she will be assigned to.   “I know you can fight with daggers but you admitted that you’re only on your training phase so... Your ability is to hear and communicate with ghosts and with this place with barrier, I don’t know how that will work uhm...” She tried thinking of ways how she could fight by herself and who would be a suitable match from the other group.   Mica is already studying in Caelum Academy ever since she was a child and is always on the top section. The Paranormal Hunters they were facing had been her classmate ever since they transferred here and even with some difference on their views and opinions, she even managed to work with them and know their ability since they were included in the top performing students then.   “Maybe you should just try –“ Mica stopped in her tracks when Maria pointed at the guy that is quite separated from his team. He has this jet black hair that looks like he hadn’t had a haircut ever since. It is tied into a messy bun and he is also wearing black jacket and black pants. His mere presence screams dangerously dark and that is what caught Maria’s attention.   The guy slowly lifted his head and their eyes locked and met.   “Derek...” Mica muttered and held Maria’s arms tightly.   “Please... Choose others. Let me take care of him for you, he’s not weak as you think he i—“   “I never think that he is weak and that is the reason why I chose him.” Maria’s cold voice echoed that made her squad stopped and look at her direction. She gently removes Mica’s hand on her arms and smile at her.   “Trust me on this one...” She said and walks forward, to the place where Derek is also walking just to meet her. -- “Looks like our boy Derek found someone interesting to fight with...” Lexi muttered as they stare at Derek who is in front of Maria. They were both silent and not breaking eye contact with each other. Billy already walks forward to meet Gene who is grinning at him while waiting at the center.   “Looks like they found their match. Who’s left?” Lexi asked and she laughed hard when she realize who their other member will be assigned to.   “Haha, don’t you wanna say hi to your old bestie, Charlie?” She mocked at the guy who is standing beside her. He is wearing a floral top and a bright pink leggings. His body type is a bit bulky and well-toned and the make-up on his face doesn’t scream he is the very bad guy in his team.   “Shut up, Lexie. She’s not my friend anymore.” He scoffed and stared blankly at Mica who was also looking back at him.   “I’m gonna end this s**t with her and I’ll make sure I’ll pierce her porcelain skin with this sharp, new manicured nail of mine.” He snorted and rolled his eyes while walking with poise at the center of the line.   “It’s kind of sad he’s heart is a lady... He’s quite charming tho...” Ameera said with admiration while staring at the back of the tall guy whose booty is swaying while walking.   “Let them settle their feud on this fight. Besides, even though Charlie is girly, his strength is of a man that he originally is.” Lexi continued and walk as if modeling at the center.   Ulysses smirks as he saw his members getting their own opponent and facing them. He roam his eyes and saw them talking to their opponent... Or more like threatening them while the others just stare blankly at each other and waits for his signal.   He slowly walks to the center without breaking eye contact with the person he is going to fight with today.   “A man with a cursed ability and brings chaos to his team and me whose ability is a blessing that can copy others...” He said and stopped walking when they are already in the mid line.   Nathan didn’t answer and just smirk at his remark. He is itching to remove the gloves from his hands and suck out all the energy force from the man in front of him. He took a deep breath and calmed himself as a smile crept into his lips.   “It would be too easy and fast if I use my ability on you so let’s take it slower and... more painful.” He answered back and laughs on his mind when he saw Ulysses expression change into a grim one.   “You’re quite cocky but I like it...” Ulysses answered and smirk at him. “Do you really think I can’t copy that?” He meaningfully asked but is just answered by Nathan’s laugh. All of their members including the audience and Sir Ichigo watched them carefully, especially Nathan who is laughing hard and suddenly stop and stared blankly directly through his eyes.   “Well then if that’s the case...” He draw closer near him and whispers on his ear.   “Copy it if you can...”   Those words ignite the burning desire in their hearts and start the chaos everyone is anticipating to see.   “May the best team win...”
