After a little while of waiting Liger and the girl were brought out of their capsules soaking wet.
The platform brought him up in the fetal position while he twitched and twisted like a madman.
A guard grabbed him by the shackles and dragged him to the recuperation pool, unknowingly leaving a snail trail to the door.
The guard looked at the numbers and smiled writing down the numbers eight and six on the board.
More and more students completed their assessments and the gym felt bigger and bigger every second.
When it was Nora and Tori's turn they both calmly kneeled and put their hands behind their backs simultaneously.
They were quickly cuffed and submerged.
It was an agonizingly long process.
'My legs itches so badly!'
Nora rubbed her legs together to try and calm down but it only made it worse.
Now she was itching like a dirty girl AND she probably rubbed her legs so hard her skin was peeling.
Nora curled into herself and stayed as still as possible, she ended up reaching the bottom and her feet touched the worn out platform.
'Hopefully Tori's faring better than I am..'

'AHHHHHHHH!'
Tori was banging her body against the sides of the machine before she stopped and looked at the bottom platform.
She let herself sink down before she flipped herself and scratched her scalp with the platform.
Her shoes had come off with how many times she banged her feet against the capsule.
Through the mask two big fat tears slid down her face as she writhed in agony.

They were both picked up by a security guard who had scowls on their faces.
They were about to check their scores when the guards uncuffed them and unmasked them, making some of the liquid get on their faces.
And without a second of hesitation winded their arms and threw them accurately into the decently shallow pool with the other female students.
Tori lifted her head from the water and chuckled lightly.
"...why were we the only ones who got thrown in?"
Nora laughed as she scrubbed her body not caring if her face broke out tomorrow.
"It's probably a good thing! Maybe you did so bad they couldn't stand to look at your cheeky face!"
Tori puffed out her cheeks in grievance before she tackled Nora into the pool water, splashing some other girls who were aggressively scrubbing their hair and arms.
Everybody froze in their tracks.
"Oh your SO dead!"
The other group of girls started splashing water over Tori and Nora as they tried to retaliate as best they could.
"Hah! Maybe you forgot about the power of the WIND BABY!"
Nora caused tiny waves to start crashing onto the other girls.
"No fair!" A girl with blue hair stood out as she manifested two big water spheres in her hands.
She giggled before throwing them like dodgeballs at some of the other girls, even accidently hitting her own teammates.
"YOU TRAITORRR!"
"THIS IS AN ANARCHY!"
It was all out war.
That was until someone from the corner appeared in the middle of the fray,
Maria.
She was bandaged up to hell with an eye patch and even a crutch but she was still wearing the goofiest smile on her face.
"How dare you start a war without consulting moi?"
The girls stopped for a moment before cheerily apologizing together
"Sorry class Prez!"
She stuck her head up high and yelled out while raising her crutch
"Continue!"
The war continued as someone had to help Maria from the bottom of the water because she decided to use her severely injured leg.
She sat down near the corner again as a white-haired girl swayed over to her to pat her shoulder in comfort.
She leaned on her as she slowly submerged her upper body shakily.
She stayed still as a boulder as Maria adjusted herself so she was comfortable.
The white-haired started slowly
"So, how many of these girls do you think will survive?"
Maria looked like she wanted to talk about literally anything else as she replied with a huff.
"Maybe around six?"
She turned to her suprised
"The number changed?"
Maria looked off at the girls playing as she spoke
"I heard some news about what's happening on the battlefield, and they might not have enough manpower to let the freshman have four years of training."
The white-haired girl had a grim look on her face as she scoffed
"Well how much more time can you give them?"
Maria gulped as she looked at her injured body under the water.
"I-I don't know."
