Everly Ghlass
. . .
I could hear the howls of the crowded stadium seeping in from the
other side of thick, metal doors. The sound was like a wave crashing against
the walls, vibrating the foundation around me. It shook the metal barriers in
the narrow hall where twelve players waited to enter the maze. Level one. A
labyrinth of dangerous traps, confusing passages, and shifting walls. I took
a deep breath, balling my fists as the metallic scent of iron crawled through
my nostrils.
Around me stood eleven other players. Nine men and two women. Six
of the men looked like they could crush me with one blow, their hardened
physiques built for battle. One of the women was so thick with muscle she
could have passed for a man and she was eyeing me like I was going to be
her next meal. The others, though just as eager as the rest, looked like they
were plucked right off the street.
And there I stood, a slender woman of average height, with long hair
pulled into a tight, silvery-lavender braid that fell down the center of my
back. I knew I didn’t look like much, but Taurus always told me that was an
advantage. People thought I looked weak. But I’d been preparing for this
race my whole life, even if I didn’t know it. I’d studied it closely in the past
weeks, getting to know previous winners and their strategies. It wasn’t
about strength. In the end, it was about determination, and I had that in
droves.
An announcer roared over the crowds outside on a booming intercom
to hype up the onlookers. I couldn’t understand much of what he was saying
through the echo in the foyer, but it meant the race was about to begin.
Looking around once more, I saw my opponents decked out anything from
thin, track suits to leather and light armor. Some had kevlar. I noticed a
couple wearing clothes that had slates of metal tucked between the layers to
shield vital areas of the body. One man even wore a bulletproof vest that
was too big for his scrawny, twitchy frame.
