The only thing that happened was Lucas dying. Violet took a serious emotional blow from this. Otherwise, it was a boring drone. Then, one day, something changed. They took 6 of us in one group and 7 in the other. My group was me, Violet, Dalton, Skylar, Andrew, and Penny. We walked into the arena and I saw that there were a lot more circles. There were 6 in an inner ring and 20 in an outer ring. We each stepped into a circle of the inner ring. I watched as 20 Demonwrought took their places in the outer ring. The pure energy armor encased all 26 of us. When the steel boxes arose, I noticed they all had the same sword. We took our places and the starting horn sounded. 5 charged me, the 2 extras included. I stabbed one in the chest before spinning to parry 2 more. I hacked off another's sword hand and he dropped to the ground wailing. Another tried to lung at me, but I sidestepped, flinging him to the ground. I swiftly stabbed through his neck. The other two tried unsuccesfully to attack me at once. I flung each of them over my shoulder and used a dead soldier's to plunge into them. I looked around to see how the others were doing. All were good except for Dalton who was lying dead on the ground. His last enemy was fighting Skylar. She slew one, but I saw the last one going for the kill. In one desperate motion, I pulled the sword out of the two men and flung it, end over end, at him. He had enough time to look and see the gleam of the sword before it hit him in the chest. With the last of the Demonwrought dead, we walked out of the arena and away from the bloodbath.
