"And when is this game starting?" "In five minutes," Ramona answered. "The info of the game will be handed to us at the fountain by one of the villa staff."

He turned and ran toward the surf, a one-armed monster charging a fleet. I looked at the ring. I looked at my white-furred son on the cliff. The blue light on the signet ring turned red. UPLOAD COMMENCING... 1% A new message appeared on the inside of the band, etched in glowing letters. Welcome to Version 3.0, Bianca. The game has just begun.

Everyone settles back in their seats when things die down and wait in impatience for the game to commence. Like the girl’s game, everything is a blur of activity as elemental's battle each other with their powers for the ball. Only, this is a lot more intense. I can feel adrenaline surge through me just by watching, and jump to my feet like everyone else when the water team wins their first goal under 5mins of just starting the game. “You know, for someone who thinks this game is “awfully brutal” and should be “banned” you seem excited about it.” Clearing my throat loudly, I spare Rae a side glance as we sat back down and ignored her teasing remark.

Lydia and I stepped towards the game. Darren squealed in excitement as he saw me. “Look who we have here, the Levi Sinclair and the ever beautiful Lydia Banks.” I stood right next to Lydia. Darren announced the game was about to start. He stepped closer to us all. “You all are going to have to do some dares. You already know the rules of the game, you have to do what is on the card in just two minutes or you are out!” Two ladies walked forward with baskets. “All you have to do is pick a card and do exactly what it says,” He added.
