**Recap**

Ethan: “Did you go to East Tek Elementary?”

 

Alex: “Yeah why?”

 

Ethan: “I’ve seen you before , but I just can’t remember where , maybe in class”

 

Alex: “Well maybe you’ll remember as we go through this competition”

 

 

Everyone’s attention diverts

The big screen turns on

 

Everyone gasps

 

“That’s the head of Tek city police”

 

Abel: Hello everyone , welcome to Tek City Police Department. I am the head: “Abel Don”

All of you have come today for 1 thing , to join us and here’s to our annual “Police Entry Competition”

With that being said everyone walk back into the building and my second in command officer Nado will explain all the events and rules you will all have to deal with.

 

Chapter 2

Alex along side all the other participants walk inside the building

 

Andy: “Hello and welcome everyone , my name is Andy Nado , you can all address me as “Officer Nado”. Before I explain the process do you have any questions?

 

?: “WHEN DO WE START ALREADY?!?! I’M READY TO KICK ALL YOUR ASSES”

 

?:”As if you could hold a candle to me, I mean us. Isn’t that right Gale?”

 

Gale: “C-c-Charlotte cmon don’t s-s-start any problems p-p-please”

 

Charlotte:”I’m just putting the worm in his place”

 

Gale: “S-s-stop Charlotte”

 

Charlotte:”Fine” as she looks into her mirror and walks away

 

The boy smirks and walks past Alex and Ethan

 

*This competition is full of weirdos* Alex thinks to himself as slightly looking at Ethan

 

Andy:”I see we’re fired up this year, but let me explain how the process will go. First you must take the written test. This is mandatory reason being is that not everyone can make it to the field work so if you pass this part and fail the rest you can work in our office receiving calls and what not. You could even skip the next parts of the test if you don’t want to be on the field.

 

Second, this is only for observation purposes. All of you will be fighting two opponents. The first match will be hand to hand combat, first to hit the ground loses. Your second opponent you will fight with a non lethal melee weapon of your choice , we provide those so you should be okay. After the first match the winners will choose their second opponents out of the losers

 

 

The third and final stage of the entry competition

You will follow me to the simulation room where all the official officers train. The simulations are formed from all recorded crimes that we’ve solved meaning that you’ll be in real situations that have happened

You cannot be truly  harmed in here but you will wear the Tek City Police Department simulation suit so that we can generate the pain that you would feel.

This part of the entry competition is to see how quick you can think in certain situations and how deductive you can be when needed.

Final bit of information , we will pull you out if you’re about to die within the simulation , if you experience death in there , there is a chance that you might fall into a state of shock.

 

If there are no questions follow me to the exam room where you’ll be taking the written test.”

 

Everyone walks to the exam room and begins their tests

 

The rowdy boy from earlier tries to cheat off of Alex who’s sitting next to him only to realize every test sheet was different as he kept searching.

 

After the written test section ended

All the scores were put on a digital board right by the hallway outside of the exam room

 

Standing at 2 on the board was Alex

 

Ethan:”I didn’t know you were so smart Alex , but second place only means you’re the first loser. For that, commit shippiku”

 

Alex: “you are in 199th place Ethan, and it’s “SE-PPU-KU” “

 

Ethan: “I tried my best and that’s all that matters”

 

Alex: “There are 200 participants”

 

Ethan falls to his knees

Ethan:”You’re right , I’m a failure. For that”

 

Alex:”SHUT UP DAMN IT”

 

Ethan:”At least I’m not In last place , I wonder who did worse than me, 200? “

 

*You’re not far off* Alex thinks to himself

 

A boy is nervously sweating after hearing Ethan

 

Ethan: “Why do you look so nervous young child?”

 

?:”I AM 19!!!”

 

Ethan:”Wait are you this “Luke” Name on the board ? “

 

Luke: “Yes” as Luke puts his head down

 

Ethan: “How sad , you’re a failure. Hold my blade you must commit-“

 

Luke:”YOU ARE ONLY ONE SPOT ABOVE ME! AND WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH A WOODEN BLADE?!?!”

 

*Idiots* Alex thinks to himself

 

Alex goes back to the screen  to see who was above him

 

Charlotte: “YES! GALE NUMBER ONE?!?! You’re so smart , not smarter than me though this was just a fluke. But good job!”

 

Gale: “T-t-thank you”

 

*Number 1 is not easy feat out of 200 people , I’ll make sure to keep note of her , Gale…* Alex thinks to himself

 

Charlotte placed 20th

 

Andy:”That concludes the first stage , if you only came here to complete the first part of the entry competition , you may leave”

 

A good chunk of participants leave, leaving about

120 members left

 

Andy: “Prepare for the combat stage , you all have 20 minutes”

 

Luke: “YEAAAAH, I’M KICKING EVERYONE’S ASS”

 

Ethan: “I’ve been preparing for this. If I lose. For that I must commit seppuku”

 

Charlotte: “No way we lose here , we’re way too strong right gale ?”

 

Gale: “R-r-right”

 

Charlotte:”I’m stronger though”

 

Alex: “This is for you mom…dad, I definitely won’t lose here “
