They were in the same year and they'd shared a few classes, and he'd quickly pegged her as a much meaner version of Avalon. Too much money, too much attitude, and much too aware of it. He was rather shocked to see her here today though. He knew her powers weren't exactly streamlined for offense. Which was good for him. One less person to worry about. [i][b][color=deepskyblue]Not that you have to worry about many people here[/color][/b][/i] he thought, a his mouth pulling into a small smirk. The changes being made to the Epic Eight portion of the contest interested him the most. A free for all, reminiscent of a four-player Super Smash Bros match. [i][b][color=deepskyblue]That'll be interesting[/color][/b][/i] he thought. Now it mattered even more who he and Avalon beat in the first round. With any luck, they'd each get one half of Gia's dream team, and then they'd be free to work together in the Epic Eight round. [b][i][color=deepskyblue]Come on Will. Things rarely go according to plan these days.[/color][/i][/b] After Mrs. Lovelace had finished her explanation of the tournament, Will stood up and swiftly strode over to the ballot boxes, already confident in the names he was going to check. Sam had let him know via Avalon that Lucas and Brenna were priority number one and two. Taking out Gia's lieutenants would make a big statement, and both he and the side he was on knew it. Obviously, those two would be his first choices to take out, but with a third choice left to him, he figured he might make things a bit personal. 1.[color=powderblue][b]Brenna Lancaster[/b][/color] - [color=deepskyblue][b]You have to plan ahead to win this thing. Brenna is strong, maybe not as strong as Lucas, but strong. The difference is that she could effectively deal with multiple adversaries, so I'd rather take her out quickly and not give her a chance to take me down in the Epic Eight.[/b][/color] 2.[color=8e45c5][b]Lucas Farweight[/b][/color] - [color=deepskyblue][b]If I can't take on Brenna, then I think Lucas would be a great test of my abilities, not to mention it would be nice to have him out of the way before the free for all.[/b][/color] 3.[color=FFBF00][b]Samuel Keats[/b][/color] - [color=deepskyblue][b]I'd be lying if I said there wasn't a little bit of a rivalry there. Okay, a lot of rivalry. I just want to prove that I'm stronger than him, cause I know I am.[/b][/color] With his ballot completed, he slipped it into the box and stood against a wall to wait for Avalon, surveying the competition one last time. This was going to be a hell of an event. [i][b][color=deepskyblue]An event that I'm gonna win[/color][/b][/i] [hr][hr] [center][img]http://fontmeme.com/embed.php?text=Avalon%20Middleton&name=Sweetly%20Broken.ttf&size=75&style_color=3EE077[/img] [img]http://66.media.tumblr.com/a97467d97dfc9e256c095ba64e4baec4/tumblr_mz18z181S01qzg2sjo4_250.gif[/img] [b][u]Location;[/u][/b] Control Room Arena -> Outside [b][u]Interacting With;[/u][/b] | [color=deepskyblue][b]Will[/b][/color] | [b][u]Mood;[/u][/b] Irked -> Intrigued -> Satisfied -> [sub][url=http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=204621526]Outfit[/url][/sub][/center][hr][hr] Sylvia Vargas. [i][b][color=springgreen]A watered down version of me. Some of us actually earned our way here[/color][/b][/i] Avalon thought, glaring at Sylvia as she continued her campaign of cruelty against their instructor. Avalon was spoiled, that was a cold hard fact, but one thing Avalon wore like a badge of honor was the fact that she hadn't needed to buy her way into Mayweather, despite her grandmother's urging to do so. She'd gotten in on pure skill, and that wasn't something everyone here could say. Avalon glanced at Will once Mrs. Lovelace mentioned the new free for all portion of the tournament. Luckily, she was confident that she and Will would both place in the final eight. To her, it was almost a sure bet. They were two of the most powerful people there, they could definitely do it. The only question was who the other six would be. If she had her way, Lucas and Brenna wouldn't be there, and neither would Keats. Though she would like the chance to beat Sylvia up, one on one. With Mrs. Lovelace's explanation complete, Avalon headed over to fill out her top three choices, though she was slow to arrive, and was forced to wait for a spot to open up. She quickly checked her phone for any messages while waiting, and smirked as she read the text from Sam. [color=springgreen][b]This is going to be fun[/b][/color] she thought, smirking as she walked up to fill out her ballot. 1. [color=8e45c5][b]Lucas Farweight[/b][/color] - [color=springgreen][b]This asshole needs to be put in his place. No one better but me to do that. He probably won't even see it coming, but trust me, I'll make him wish he'd dropped out of this school.[/b][/color] 2. [color=powderblue][b][s]Wannabe Frozone[/s] Brenna Lancaster[/b][/color] - [color=springgreen][b]Ice Queen's had this one coming for a long time. She might want to rethink applying to Delphina when I'm done with her.[/b][/color] 3. [color=goldenrod][b]Sylvia Vargas[/b][/color] - [color=springgreen][b]Do I need a reason other than the fact that she's a giant bitch? Also, I do the red head thing way better so, I'd like to just make a show of superiority on that front[/b][/color] With her ballot completed, Avalon strolled over to Will and linked her arm through his, smiling. And then, as if she'd just remembered something, she turned to face Eliana Lovelace, and cocked her head. [color=springgreen][b]"Ellie! Elijah! I totally forgot to ask! How did the date go? Oh, you know what, just tell me later. You've got my number!"[/b][/color] she shouted, feigning interest with a large grin. This should teach the little girl to mingle with the other side. [color=deepskyblue][b]"Wasn't that a bit much?[/b][/color] Will asked as they exited the arena. Avalon looked up at him and grinned. [color=springgreen][b]"All's fair in love and war."[/b][/color] [hr][hr] [center][img]http://fontmeme.com/embed.php?text=Brenna%20Lancaster&name=writtenonhishands.ttf&size=75&style_color=78CCEB[/img] [img]http://66.media.tumblr.com/920ded4d7c39f586337191e7695a41a5/tumblr_mrx49uMsEk1rm5tsvo3_r1_250.gif[/img] [b][u]Location;[/u][/b] The Arena -> Outside [b][u]Interacting With;[/u][/b] | [color=red][b]James[/b][/color] [@FacePunch] | [b][u]Mood;[/u][/b] Amused -> Excited -> Nervous [sub][url=http://www.polyvore.com/brennas_bad_ass_outfit/set?id=204618867]Outfit[/url][/sub][/center][hr][hr] Brenna couldn't help but chuckle at Sylvia's attempt to tear down her and Lucas. [color=powderblue][b][i]Even with Vince gone she still tries so hard to go after Gia. Kind of depressing, honestly.[/i][/b][/color] she thought, shaking her head and rolling her eyes as the annoying excuse for a Powered continued her irksome tirade. [color=powderblue][b][i]Someone needs to put this bitch in her place. Quickly.[/i][/b][/color] Brenna feigned disinterest as Mrs. Lovelace explained the tournament. Whoop dee doo! A free for all portion! Who gave a shit? Brenna had this in the bag anyways. In fact, she wasn't quite sure why anyone else had been invited. The only people here who, maybe stood a chance against her were Ellie, Elijah, and Blake. And she was ready to knock each and every one of them down to win. [color=powderblue][b][i]The Snow Angel doesn't play to lose after all[/i][/b][/color] she thought, smirking. She strutted over to the ballot box with confidence once Mrs. Lovelace had finished. Brenna couldn't help but laugh internally at the path her life had taken. Years ago, Brenna had been baking cookies with Ellie in the kitchen while Mrs. Lovelace graded papers in the next room and told them to keep the music down. Brenna wouldn't ever admit it, but she'd always wanted Ellie's mom to like her. Of course, even then, she'd been a troublemaker, and Cecilia hadn't been quite a fan of that, but still. The Ice Queen had always secretly wanted to be part of the Lovelace family. And now, Brenna was her student, and probably the one she liked the least, besides Sylvia. An interesting turn of events, if Brenna had ever seen one. After a moment of thinking, Brenna quickly jotted down her choices for opponents in the first round of fighting. The first two were mainly business, but the last one? That was a bit more personal. 1. [color=deepskyblue][b]Will Blake[/b][/color] - [color=powderblue][b]He's strong. I'm strong. It's a match made in heaven if you ask me. What can I say? I like a good challenge.[/b][/color] 2. [color=springgreen][b]Avalon Middleton[/b][/color] - [color=powderblue][b]She called me a bitch the other night. I want to get even. Pretty please?[/b][/color] 3. [color=darkcyan][b]Eliana Lovelace[/b][/color] - [color=powderblue][b]Round two?[/b][/color] Content with her choices, Brenna submitted her ballot and walked out of the arena. Reading Gia's texts she smirked. And then she gulped. It looked like fate was finally pushing her to talk to James. [b][i][color=powderblue]Fuck you fate[/color][/i][/b] she thought, despite the fact that she was already walking over to him, just as he'd left the building. [color=powderblue][b]"Hey. Can we, like talk or something?[/b][/color] she asked, biting her lip.
