But I was wonder how was he so confident like while eating breakfast only… I was shivering while my parents were calming me down and he was right next to me confidence was shining in his voice while he was talking to his friend. Which was replacing my fear with anger and now while we are going to our bus that will take us to Vortexia. We never ate together but today was an important day so we were eating together. (In the bus) “How are you so confident? I am literally dying here” asked sunset “2 things : 1. I have no idea. 2. Please die. “ said the boy “Not funny.” Said sunset getting really angry. “But you are.” Replied the boy. “How can I kill u?!” “Look today is an important day in our life… let’s not fight and instead help each other because the first 2 trials will be easy… they will tell which power tier we can get on a average. After we get the powers, we have to well… fight. So let’s just make sure everything is well not inhumane between us at least today.” “You have a point.” We had so much fun and the best part, all our closest friends also in the same bus. We talked about songs, movies, games, sports, anime and series. It was the best time. Before we knew it… we arrived at… VORTEXIA. Almost the entire bus screamed at the top of their voice. “Let’s go.” He said calmly looking at the huge colosseum. “Yes.” Said the entire bus in unity. But then suddenly a shadow appeared. From inside the shadow stepped out our principal… principal discord. “Welcome to VORTEXIA… today is the most important day of your life. You will get your powers today… but first a test. Will be given after which you will go through physical challenges at most extreme of your imagination. Then your powers will be revealed and then you will battle in sects. Only you 14 have been chosen… and yes originally there were 17 key holders but for the time being there will only be 14. So as I was saying you 14 have been chosen since you all are the best of the best. So now let’s go for the test. To be honest the test was preety easy except for a few maths and physics questions. When the results came I was happy to know I came third but there was 1 person who got full. 100/100 he got… I couldn’t believe that was possible. Anyways… we continued to the sport trials. We were seriously pushed to our physical limits. But when we were told to lift weights we all were pretty confident that it was going to be easy. Normally people from my world can lift upto 47kg minimum. But I lifted 256 kg while he lifted 400 kg I was shocked. Like how is that possible?! Anyhow… Now we had to get our results… After waiting for 3 hours, we got the results. Both me and him were at minimum tier 4 which was the highest possible. Though some myths say there are two tier 5 powers but I doubted that. Now we were about receive our powers. Both of us being at tier 4 had to go last. And we did I went first. I got memory and fire which were both tier 4 I was proud of myself and started to think what was my awakening ability and what was my hidden ability. He went next. He stepped onto the podium and as the sphere of energy surrounded him he turned around and smiled at me, and that second the sphere consumed him and when he came out he just wasn’t the same. He had changed. He got time a tier 5 ability and fire. 3 years later… “So that’s my story and name. You told your story but not your name. So what’s your name?” I asked. “Nero.” Said the person.
