My Angel system

The first level wasn't that hard even for any first-year student so it wasn't that hard for Mirinda to avoid the discs without stepping her feet on the floor.

The concept behind this one was to avoid the discs without letting any of them touch them unlike the one in the arcade where you had to hit them and prevent any of them from hitting you first or going past you.

The gloves and discs had sensors to detect whenever their feets touched the floor and touching the floor meant automatic disqualification.

The last shot out from the machine toward her as she quickly did a flip to avoid it and once she had landed on the disc, the lights on its edges turned green.

"Next up, Derick Blue." The sergeant as Mirinda slowly stepped off the disc.

Derick let out a deep sigh as he slowly stepped onto the disc.

A sergeant was standing behind them to make sure that the discs didn't go beyond the stadium, he had wind ability so making sure the discs didn't fly beyond the area wasn't that hard for him.

He used his wind ability to pull the discs closer to the machine.

His wind ability made it easier for him to fill the discs into the back of the machine for Derick's round.

"Alright Derick, you have twenty seconds before the discs start coming." The sergeant said before pushing the start button.

The machine had twenty discs inside of it and Derick had no problem dodging all of them.

If the first level wasn't a problem for Derick and Mirinda then there was no way it was going to be a problem for Mason who avoided all the discs without showing many skills.

Mason had cleared his level and now it was Luis' turn but his name hadn't been called up yet because the sergeant didn't know his name.

"What's your name kid?" The sergeant asked, looking at him.

"Luis." The Angel replied.

"Luis who?"

"Luis Miles."

"Okay, Luis Miles." The sergeant said as he inputted his name into the small tablet he was holding. "Step up to the disc."

Luis did as he was told and slowly stepped onto the disc.

"Demon Slayer," Max muttered from where he was sitting with Sony.

"Is that him?" Sony said with a perplexed expression on his face.

"Yeah, what's with that look on your face?" Max asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that I expected him to look a little better than this," Sony said.

"Looks can be deceiving Sony," Max said.

"What are you two blabbering about?" Jane asked quickly, turning her gaze to them.

Their work as her bodyguard had officially kicked off and that was why they were sitting behind her and her friends.

"Nothing," Max said.

Jane stared at the both of them for a while before turning it back to watch what was going on in the stadium.

Luis was dodging the discs as swiftly as ever and just like the three before him, he didn't experience any form of difficulty.

"He's just a level three student, he's probably going to get overwhelmed at level two or three," Derick muttered under his breath as turned his gaze to Luis' watch.

"All participants had successfully made it past level one, we will now be moving to level two." The sergeant said before clicking the level two button on the machine.

"Well, that level was boring," Chloe said.

"Said by someone who can't even make it past that boring level." Ace said.

"Hey, I can clearly make it past level one," Chloe said, turning to him with a furious look on her face.

"Are you two still not bothered by the fact that Dylan is not yet back?" Tania said with a worried expression on her face.

"Why? It's only been about ten minutes since he left." Chloe said.

"Yeah, but Luis, Ella, and the other martial arts students have returned," Tania said, turning her gaze to where Ella and Silvia were sitting.

"What could be delaying him?" Ace said as he was beginning to sense something suspicious.

"He'll probably be back anytime soon now," Chloe said.

"Yeah, probably." Ace said slowly getting up from his seat.

"Where are you going?" Chloe asked.

"To look for him." Ace said.

"Okay," Chloe said with a shrug before returning her gaze.

Derrick had drawn himself back to avoid two discs heading toward him at the same time and in the process, his hand had almost touched the but he was able to pull himself back up just as the discs zoomed past him and prevented that from happening.

The sergeant no longer needed to call them by their names as Mason had quickly made his way to the spot as soon as Derrick stepped off.

Mason dodged the discs with swift and simple moves, he made the level seem just like level two.

The last disc was shot toward him from below and all he needed to do to avoid it was jump and once he had landed back on the disc the edges had turned green.

He stepped off the disc as Luis made his way there, the two had established eye contact for a few seconds before the Angel stepped onto the disc.

The sergeant with wind ability quickly filled the discs back into the machine and returned to his spot before the host sergeant clicked the start button.

"Twenty seconds."

The first disc was shot out toward him and he quickly stepped to the side to avoid it.

Ella was watching the fight with Silvia when she suddenly felt someone touch her shoulder from behind.

She was startled as she quickly turned to check the student who thought it was okay to just touch someone like that only to see that it wasn't a student.

"Mike." She gasped.

Standing behind her was a young man who had a few of her facial features.

A symmetrical face with a slightly oval jaw, a slightly pointed nose, little moon-shaped lips and surely he had those blue eyes.

That was Mike Jones, Ella's elder brother. Ella was expecting to see her here but she wasn't expecting to see him today so it was quite a surprise to see him now.

"How're you doing baby sis?" Mike asked with a warm smile on his face.

"Alright, we will be moving to level three now." The sergeant said as his voice resounded in the stadium.

All four participants had successfully made it past level two and now it was time to start level three and see if they were all going to make it through again.

"Is this the place?" Layla asked as the drone had stopped in front of the Blackstones' house which they could see through the drone's camera view.

"Yeah," Michael said with a nod.

"You guys live in a nice-looking house," Layla said as she flew closer to the house.

She expected a thank you from Jude after that compliment but there was no response from the young knight.

"How do I get in?" The Lieutenant asked as there seemed to be no way for her to get the drone into the house from the front.

"Go West, there's a window there, it has to be open," Jude said.

"And you're sure that it's open," Layla said.

"I don't know but my mother opens it every morning," Jude said. "I just hope she hasn't stopped."

"Okay," Layla said as she quickly flew the drone toward the area.

Fortunately for them, the window seemed to be slightly open.

"Yes," Jude muttered under his breath.

Layla flew the drone into the room which Jude was quite surprised to find neatly arranged.

"Is this your room?" Layla asked.

"No, it's my sister's room," Jude replied.

"That's Tania's room?" Bryan said.

"Yeah," Jude said.

Fortunately for them again, the door leading out of the room happened to be open so Layla was about to fly the drone out of them, and with Jude's directions, she had controlled the drone to the living room which they were all surprised to find empty.

"Where are they? Nobody would want to be outside with what's going on there so where could they be?" Layla said with a pondering look on her face.

"They have to be in their room," Jude said.

"Show me the way."

She turned the drone around and was about to fly into the hallway when Maya suddenly walked into the living room.

"Mother." The young knight said with a voice of relief.

"How did a bee get in here?" Maya said, looking around trying to see if she could spot the bee that had invaded her house.

"Is there any way I can talk to her through the drone?" Jude asked.

As soon as he asked that question, Layla turned her gaze to Bryan before turning it back to him.

"Michael told us not to use this unless it was necessary," Layla said.

"You think this isn't necessary?"

"It is necessary and that's why we're going to use it," Layla said before flicking the middle of the controller that had no buttons on it to reveal a tiny microphone. "Just say what you want to say."

"Mother." The young knight called.

Maya was still looking around trying to find the bee when she heard the voice.

She thought she was being delusional and kept looking around until she heard it again.

"Who's that?" She asked, looking around.

"Mother, it's me, Jude." The young knight said.

"Jude?" She said with a confused expression on her face. "Where are you? I can't find you?"

"Can you make the drone visible? Please." Jude pleaded.

"Okay," Layla said before turning on the stealth mode.

Maya was looking straight toward the area the drone was when it suddenly became visible.

She had a shocked expression on her face as she couldn't explain what she was seeing now, she thought it was a bee but it turns out it was something bigger.

'Why are all these strange things happening today?'

"Mother, over here." She heard her son's voice come from the strange thing hovering in the room.

"Jude? Is that you?" She asked, moving closer to it.

"Yes, it's me."

As soon as she heard that, a horrid look appeared on her face.

"What did they turn you into?" She muttered.
