Lexie and yourself continue to walk down into the Training Grounds, looking to your right you see tons upon tons of male Syndicate warriors fighting each other and tons upon tons of female Sunriders fighting each other. They are both using real steel blades fighting back and forth, showing each other who is the best of the best.

"So..." Lexie starts "If you want a wooden weapon, go off to your left, there are many wood weapons if you want to practice without causing any injuries." Her hand goes and grips your wrist "But...since I'm going to kick your ass, we can spar with real weapons if you want...although, I feel I'll hurt you if you go with a real weapon" Lexie smiles at you.

"Listen honey..." you decide to be cocky "How about I grab a wooden weapon and you grab something real...there is no chance you beat me anyway, so might as well make it fair." you smile at her.

"Cocky mother fucker..." she grins at you

You grab a wooden short sword and a wooden dagger, the two weapons that you are trained for. The two weapons that you almost won the Tournament of Nillix with.

"So, you ready?" you question "Let's go down to this Plateau or whatever..." you begin "I can't wait to kick your ass to show the Syndicate how amazing I really am." you beam a smile at her.

"Fuck you." she chuckles as she picks up a wooden short sword and a buckler "Wait a minute..." she replies "Holy shit...a trial." she gasps

"Trial?" you question

"Look..." she states as she points down to the Plateau. Tons of warriors are gathering around the lone plateau in the training grounds. Warriors & Sunriders are circling the plateau, many of them are cheering, laughing and talking between themselves "A trial to take control of the Sunriders..."

"What's going on?" you question

"A trial to command the Sunriders." Lexie states "Can't believe this is happening..." she lets out a deep breath "By why didn't they have to take out the High Commander's first..." she mumbles out-loud

"Because she denied entry" A random female Sunrider says "Luna refused her High Command to participate..."

"A trial?" you cough "A new commander?" you question "Luna?" you raise an eyebrow
