Chapter 18 Growling

Princess Asha

Sila and I are looking at the countdown on her tablet and we smile the moment every device gets activated, now all we have to do is wait to see who dies frst. When Sila and I thought of this idea for the challenge we knew it would be hard, because Pups don’t get trained in using weapons anymore.

Trying to shoot a moving target is difficult, especially if that target is shooting back at you and we had a lot of laughs as we went through every possible scenario. Our tech–department made sure it couldn’t be worn to bed and it is even very sensitive to clothes covering up, it has to stay a challenge after all.

The surface is a bit bigger than it’s ancient predecessor for laser games, we decided to go with light instead of sound and we did that to prevent an entire Pack to go hunting after the other leaderships. If someone was smart enough to attack during the night, I can think of at least one person who might come up with

that idea.

“Okay, they are all activated. Let the competition begin Sila says and I know that everyone is curious if they can figure out the extra challenge we gave them, Eryx seems convinced that no one will be able to figure it out. We have given them two weeks for this competition and every morning and every evening at -nine Deimos will check the locations.

We want to know if anyone has figured out where to find their reward and by giving each of them a different hint and location we will know which Packs have found their reward. In the rules Sila gave each Pack it states that the extra challenge can still be completed even if they get taken out of the competition.

Let’s just hope that some of them are smart enough to read all the rules and not just to rely on what Sila told them, because that would mean that not everyone will go after the extra challenge. It is a test of its own and will determine if a leadership will give up at the first signs of trouble or will stop if a challenge seems too big.

I mean trying to get into the Palace and to find a hidden reward, it would probably stop quiet a few people from going after it. We also chose eight different places to hide the rewards and gave them a cryptic hint on where to find it, using references from the past of Royal family members.

Sila had a lot of fun with Queen Axelle to find the right references to put in the hints and I learned a lot about Ammon’s family members that once lived in this Palace. Some stories never left the Palace walls and those were not used for the extra challenge, but stories that were known throughout the Kingdom were the ones we did use.

Ammon holds the rulebook of the competition in front of me with his finger near one of the rules, I read the rule he is pointing at and I burst out in laughter. Zalia could have taken Moon Stone Pack out of the competition by declining the Gamma position and I wonder if she isn’t aware of this rule or that she has an agenda of her own.
