<span style="color: #BFBFBF">Levi casually stared back at the girl. She decided to simply look at the faces of her possible team members, this one seemed promising. She had long hair that was as black as the darkness of the peaceful skies at midnight, as well as natural dark blue highlights that Levi herself takes note that she has never met anyone who had highlights. She had remarkable large and blue eyes. Her lightly tanned body's slender form shows that she is also well trained. Perhaps stronger than Levi. Being in the back with this girl who doesn't seem held back with by anything, and seeing that she too isn't so dramatic, Levi wanted to befriend her, at the very least being able to greet herself to her to become acquaintances.  However, it doesn't seem to be a good time now. And the group she was in was rather quiet. Besides, having this strong-looking girl to be in the same group as Levi, this girl who seems to have already captured, moreover lifted, this town's low chance of survival, is quite unlikely. <span style="font-style: italic">From first-sight analysis, if we're teamed up, we'd be the breadwinners of this town.</span> Levi turns away as she stretches, and tries to stifle a yawn. She attempts to look ahead of the group, and knowing where they're heading, she's hoping that the leader will <span style="font-style: italic">not</span> take to long for his or her speech.<br/><br/>At the center of Arenae, the gathering was finally complete. "Attention!" A man stands on a large platform, surrounded by guardsmen. As the already-not-so-boisterous people heeded his words, they all turned to look at them. His voice boomed loud and clear, but he was clearly new at this. A pause, then he spoke, "To the chosen youths of this generation, you are honored with gratitude to search for the missing Energie of Arenae. Remember that you all are heroes of the current and future generation of this town, and we are all in your debt. We all wish you good luck, and may your glory and reward of bringing this town back to life stack beyond the heavens, for you all are our endearing light in this dark era!" A silence follows. "May the grouping, goodbyes, and departure soon begin."<br/><br/>Afterwards, the other leaders started to sort out the young into different groups. They were improvising, with the quick first-look analysis of the chosen people and all. <span style="font-style: italic">Surely they must not be too strict with putting kids in teams.</span> It was then that, from afar at, a boy with brown hair and green eyes in one group was talking to the leader of his own group, a girl who also had brown hair and green eyes was standing next to him. However, it had seemed that the leader was having no tolerance for whatsoever the boy's words were. Two guards came up and grabbed the boy, throwing him back into his group. It was difficult to see, with people moving around and blocking the view, but then the girl's leader, the girl who was about to go to the boy, had grabbed her arms and roughly pulled her back towards her own group. A small commotion that was quickly dealt with. The crowd of moving people had then blocked everything. <span style="font-style: italic">Their taste may not be suited to mine.</span> Soon, Levi's group was getting smaller and smaller as people were being sent away. As Levi was crossing her arms, she gripped the strap of her bag out of a bit of frustration. <span style="font-style: italic">No, I can't. There's not enough hiding places to get away with this.</span> The girl with the blue highlights in the back that was second to last with Levi was soon sent away towards her own destination. As it was Levi's turn, the leader looked at her for quite a long while, as if in deep decision making. Levi stood straighter, puffing out her chest a bit to show a bit of confidence. <span style="font-style: italic">If I can't be with her, then send me to the best group you got.</span> She was then sent her to the same destination as the girl before her. Levi hops along happily as if she had won an unlikely gamble.</span>
