Evening of the Fifth day at MKPC Academy. The students have completed their classes for the day and several have gathered in the dining hall.

Chloe; So, yesterday’s game. That was weird . . .
K; Yeah, at first it was just dumb. Like, “why are we even doing this?” And then-
Scorchy; And then Iam beats the #### out of Lely and Shen.
K; Uh, yeah . . . Lely did you get the amulet back?
Lely; No, Iam never returned to our apartment last night, and I haven’t seen Alyssa outside of class today. We never got a chance to talk.
Eli; Huh, that’s odd. Alyssa and I were able to chat for a while after magic class.
K; Well you’re the only two of us who are in magic class.
Chloe; I’ll remind her tonight. Maybe she forgot.
Scorchy; Who’d forget something like that? Btw has anyone seen Iam tonight?
Shen; Nah. But then I guess I’m kinda hiding today. Don’t wanna get knocked out again. *he taps his head, stiffens, then gasps with relief* Whew, felt a little dizzy!
K; Please be serious. Anyway, I was thinking we should try to learn more about this contest thing. I didn’t know it was part of the school and I only participated in the first game because it sounded harmless and I didn’t want to make the directors mad. But after what happened to Lely I’m getting Danganronpa vibes again.
Lely; Like I said before, this is not like Dangonronpa!
Kaylie; (over the campus intercom) Alright, students! Time for your next contest. Please go to the south coastline of the island.  
Eli; Oh, for the love of -. Already?
Chloe; Let’s go. I’ll drive.

The students arrive at a sandy beach on the south coast of the island. A narrow path leads down a cleft to the beach, which seems almost to glow in the moonlight. Some distance to the east, a deep creek runs across the sand to the ocean.

Lely; Wow, it’s beautiful here.
Iam; Hey guys. What’s tonight’s game?
K; I’m actually wondering the same thing.
-; Hello students. My name is Lee. I’ll be your instructor tonight.
Scorchy; So what are we doing here?
Lee; Be patient. Dietsoda and Alyssa have not arrived.

Dietsoda; I’m here. This had better be worth interrupting weapons training.

Alyssa; Hi. Sorry I’m late guys.
Lee; Finally. Everyone’s here. Today’s challenge will be a test of your physical strength and agility. You must run a course along this beach. Partly on the water, partly on the sand. You may not run on the beach itself until you have returned from the water. The first person to reach the east end will find an amulet waiting. Claim it, and the game ends. No restrictions. Good luck! *he gestures at the sand*

Columns of stone rise from the water, a line going along the coastline before returning to the beach. Then a series of trenches open in the ground where the columns return to the sand.

Alyssa; Terrakinesis. Cool.
Shen; Wow! I have no idea what to do here!
Alyssa; That’s it?
Dietsoda; Looks pretty simple. You jump from one column to the next before navigating through the trenches to reach the end.
Alyssa; Yeah, except I can fly.
Dietsoda; That’s not fair.
Scorchy; Lee, question. Is there a rule that says we can’t use violence to win the contests?
Lee; No, why would there be?
K; Because that's wrong, that’s why.
Scorchy; So you’re fine with people fighting physically over a stupid game?!
Lee; It’s more than a game. You’ll understand later. When you do, you will see that it is worth bending a few ‘normal’ rules to achieve victory.
Scorchy; (shocked) That is so wrong!
Iam; Let’s get started.

Iam runs into the water and reaches the first column. Eli jumps over his head and starts leaping from column to column. Alyssa takes flight as the others run after Iam and Eli.

Dietsoda; Watch out Eli! Coming up!

Dietsoda passes Eli, jumping lightly from place to place.

Chloe; Blasted elf. He’s so fast!
Scorchy; No way I’m gonna win now. I can’t jump the distance between these things.
Lely; Here, I’ll carry you again. It’s not fair that you do this part alone.
Lee; Now things get a bit harder!

Something flies past Alyssa’s head.

Alyssa; What was that?
Eli; Alyssa watch out!

A ball of earth slams into Alyssa, who falls into the water.

Eli; She’s not coming back up!
Lely; I’m going down after her.
Scorchy; Incoming!

Another ball of earth arcs up from the sand and hits Lely and Scorchy. They both fall into the water. Lely recovers from the shock and grabs Scorchy.

Lely; We’re fine. We’ll get Alyssa!
Eli; I’m coming too! *he dives in after them*
K; I might as well continue the course. These metal bionics make me a terrible swimmer. . . *he turns away and starts jumping columns again*

Iam; *catching Dietsoda’s heel* I’m gonna win this one!
Dietsoda; Get off, mortal. *He kicks off Iam and jumps into the first trench*
Iam; Haha, wait up! *he runs after Dietsoda*
K; Now I feel kinda guilty. Continuing wasn’t the best thing to do, was it? And now I can’t win anyway. ####.
Shen; I heard that.
K; AAAGH! Sorry, sorry. I’m rather stressed right now.
Shen; Let’s just go back. Maybe we can still help Lely and the others.

Chloe was running ahead at the time of Alyssa’s fall, and she, Iam, and Dietsoda are struggling past the trenches on the beach.

Chloe; There’s . . . the amulet.
Dietsoda; I’m going to get this one.

The three of them run toward the amulet. A ball of earth arcs toward them and they dodge. Dietsoda and Iam collide and fall, but Choe simply glitches through them and the ball, and grabs the blue amulet.

Chloe; Yes!
Lee; THE CONTEST IS OVER! EVERYONE GATHER AT THE END OF THE COURSE!

K and Eli arrive, carrying Alyssa between them. Scorchy rides on Lely’s shoulder, helping him dry off with a towel from the student’s kart. Shen trails behind.

Chloe; ####, is she unconscious?
Lely; Yes, we'll take her back to campus. There's an infirmary in the main building.
Dietsoda; What is that stuff wrapped around her. Looks like vines.
Eli; They are. I think they came out of the ball of earth when it hit her. It immobilized her.
Chloe; Well come on, let's get her to the infirmary!

Chloe leads them away, leaving Dietsoda, Max, and Lee alone on the beach.

Lee; Hmmm. I hope the faerie survives. It would reflect badly on the school if a student died so early.
Dietsoda; Wait. If a student died early? What's that supposed to mean?
Lee; Oh, I misspoke. It would be bad if a student died.
Iam; Yeah right. You meant to say that.
Dietsoda; What is this contest really about?
Lee; . . .

Scorchy and Eli are at Eli’s house. Eli is telling Scorchy about the book he’s writing.

Eli; So, this chapter is hard. I’m stuck. The spy needs to survive this part, and she has to be in the factory when it burns down to get the information the main character needs. But how the heck is she supposed to live through that?!

Scorchy; I don’t know. Maybe . . . no nevermind.

Eli; Wish I was better at writing. This is getting too hard.



That night, Eli is watching YouTube. An ad comes on.

Add narrator; MKPC Academy is nearly here! We’re dedicated to making MKPC City a better place by making its citizens smarter, stronger, and more powerful. Already, young people in several other cities have achieved amazing things through the power of our teaching.

The screen shows young people healing patients with a touch, raising buildings with a gesture, and controlling weather to keep a city safe from a hurricane.

-; They taught me so much! I mean, I’m not, like, magic or anything like some of the others, but it’s just amazing! When I was little I thought I’d never be anything. Now I’m, like, actually good at stuff! I can program computers so easily, some of my friends from here are the best doctors in the world now. It’s just - unbelievable. It’s wonderful.

Eli; Huh. She got one thing right. That’s unbelievable.

Eli turns the TV off and goes to sleep.

.   .   .

Eli’s phone buzzes, waking him.

Eli; Alyssa is calling . . . Hey what’s up?

Alyssa; Hi Eli. Scorchy told me you’re having trouble with your book. You know MKPC Academy will have writing courses. Maybe you can get help there.

Eli; You kidding? Not worth it. You haven’t fallen for that ad have you?

Alyssa; I’m enrolled in an alchemy course already. Seriously, join in. A whole bunch of our friends are already in classes as well.

Eli; Alright . . . I’ll check it out.



At MKPC Academy. Opening day.

Shen; Gosh I’m so nervous right now. Max I’ma just hide behind you for a minute ok?
Max; Get away from me you idiot. You’re fine! *pushes at Shen’s head*
Shen; *collapses*
Lely; Is he unconscious?
Dietsoda; That is ridiculous.
Max; What? . . . I didn’t mean to -
Loudspeaker; Welcome new students. Please gather at the entrance courtyard.
Lely; Has Shen woken up yet?
Shen; Yeah! Yes, let’s go.

The entrance courtyard is a large space surrounded on three sides by buildings, on the fourth by the outer wall and the gate.

Chloe; Wow, pretty neat. Cheer up Eli!
Eli; I still think this will be a waste of time . . .
Alyssa; Come on, this is great. You will learn here. We all will. Quit moping around and enjoy yourself! This is day one!
Lely; Hi guys. You’re going to school here too?
Alyssa; Yep. They’ve got a neat Alchemy course.
Chloe; That’s Alyssa, haha. She can fly, do terrakinesis, and now she wants to know alchemy.
Shen; What’s alchemy?
Dietsoda;

Scorchy; Hey all.
Max; Hey.
Scorchy; K’s with me.
K; Hi.
Alyssa; *looks around at the other students* Sooo, why are we all gathering here?
Loudspeaker; Welcome new students! Today we’ll get to know each other and explore the campus. Refreshments will be provided in the cafe and here at the entrance. Please make some friends, explore, and enjoy yourself. Throughout the day we’ll be showing you your dorms, so when you see yours, go ahead and make yourself comfortable! Staff will be around to answer any questions you may have. Have a nice day.
Chloe; Well, guess we explore the place then. I think I saw a computer lab somewhere. See ya!
Alyssa; I’ll go with.
Eli; Guess I’ll come.

Max; Engineering, mechanics . . . *sees a vehicle assembly area* coool. Hope I get to do that.

Dietsoda is looking at racks of weapons.

Dietsoda; Weapons training. This will be good.
K; Don’t get carried away. But I’d be happy to spar anytime we get a chance.
Dietsoda; Eh maybe.

Academy Employee; And this will be your room, Lely. You’ll be with Max.
Lely; What? Uh, can I be with someone else please?
Employee; He’s your friend right?
Lely; Wrong Max.
Employee; Oh . . . Sorry. I don’t know if we can rearrange the roommates.
Lely; Well, it’s a nice room anyway.


Next morning.

Scorchy; So. Study hall. The headmaster wants to talk to us?
K; Well here she is.
-; Good morning students. Welcome to MKPC Academy. My name is Kaylie. I’m the head instructor here. I’m sure you are all excited to get started on your classes - your schedules have been sent to your phones by now. But I want you to know, this is no ordinary school. Not all of you are marked for greatness, and there’s only one way to become truly powerful here. All new students have been entered into the MKPC Academy contest. Details will be sent to you as well. The days of the contest will be hard, but I’ll be here to help you.
Lely; This had better not be another MKPC Dangonropa.
K; Stop breaking the fourth wall man.
Lely; Sorry. Sorry. Wait did I really -
Kaylie; Only the winners of the competition will be able to continue here.
Eli; This is only getting worse.
Kaylie; And now . . . Everyone please go to your classes. Good luck!

Later, K and Scorchy are in their apartment, looking over the competition rules.

K (reading from his phone); In each competition, there will be a number of amulets hidden in a certain area. The ultimate goal of each competition is for each player to get as many amulets as possible. At the end of three weeks, all players with 5 or more amulets will have proven their worthiness to continue at MKPC Academy and become truly great citizens of MKPC city.
Scorchy; Well that was helpful.
K; Not.
Scorchy; Yeah . . . Hopefully they’ll tell us more later. The stuff on our phones is not much to go on.



So this episode is kinda setting up for the rest of the fic. So it might have been a little slow Hope you enjoyed and please give feedback. I don't care if it's good or bad feedback, its all helpful!

I am mainly on my phone now, since my parents blocked it on my main computer, but I am not quite as active as I want to be, but I can still make tracks and special obstacles on my phone, and build the track on my family's dead battery life Chromebook, but if I unplug it, because it has no battery life, it dies 1 frame later, so I have to relog in, and anything not saved will have to be redone

it won't be in my multicup because he took tracks from the internet

Rejected

Hey, have you decided yet on whether you accept this or not?

Why?

nope I just didn't check this i'm gonna do that right now

non

There's actually a track called GBA Night Circuit 1 which is Peach Circuit with a altered layout and theme, and we decided with Pixel to keep it but that means that we can't add RedPikmin's Peach Circuit, sorry about that :/ (also I know about the Peach Circuit "nitro" I was the one who made it and it's a remake from an old Fways's track)

I will wait for you to notify me, although I can also confirm that this will be getting into battle mode
