Terry awoke with a start. He groggily looked around to find himself surrounded by his teammates. Arielle, Cody, Tyler and Shelby were already awake. Jesse was still unconscious and then I saw a familiar face that shouldn’t be here. “Mimi?” I exclaimed and the girl woke from her slumber. “Huh? What happened? Mimi asked and Terry quickly ran over to make sure she was safe.

The area around them was a hallway with a glass door blurred by the rain outside. Aside from the 7 people in the team there was a total of eight others. Their ages range from about 16 to 40 with a ratio of 5:3 for males to females.

A few of them were already starting to wake up. A man in his late 30s woke up and saw Shelby and Co staring at him “Hey, why are we here? For what reason did you kidnap us?”

Shelby looked at her teammates before looking at Jesse “Jesse, explain to him the real reason why we are here. You’ll get 100 points for explaining.”

Jesse came forward to the now awoken newbies and started to talk. “The name is Jesse, Team Australia’s medic, I will be explaining to you that you all were not kidnapped by us, we are the same. Victims of a game God has pulled us into. I’m sure all of you had gotten a message of some sort asking if you wanted to know the meaning of life? There is a high chance that you’ve selected Yes, and that brought you here to God’s Dimension where we all are going through a series of trials for the evolution of ourselves and the team.”

“Bull crap” the man exclaimed and he rushed forward hands extended ready to fight. A gust of wind flew by the team as Tyler quickly reacted and redirected the strikes and flipped the guy. “Wing Chun?” the guy was surprised by Tyler’s movements and then he landed on the floor gasping for breath.

“A demonstration is needed to believe me I presume?” Shelby sighed and she gave a glance at Tyler and his whole body started to ripple as the skin on his body turned to scales, his face enlarged itself and his hands turned into claws. One strike to a wall and it crumbled into bits and pieces.

Many people gasped at the sight of Tyler transforming but a few skeptics were adamant in their belief that it was all a hoax. “We can’t be wasting time on this, those of you who want a better chance of surviving this mission, list your occupation, name, age, and skill.”

The group of newbies started to list their occupation, name, age and skills to Shelby so Terry took the time to consul Mimi and his watch blinked.
