<span style="text-decoration: underline">Ryker</span><br/>Ryker looked at the card he had picked, the Ace of Spades. "So am I supposed to tell you the card, or put it back in the deck, or what?" he asked before realizing the stranger had disappeared. He glanced around, but couldn't find the man. "Weird..." He was about to toss the card away when he found he couldn't let it go. "What the hell is going on?" The card glowed momentarily before melting into his hand and traveling to his wrist. When the glowing stopped, he stared at the inside of his left wrist incredulously, a small black "A" with the spade symbol next it. He rubbed at it, trying to get it off, but it was like a tattoo. "What trick is this?!" He looked up again, falling silent when he realized he wasn't in Kansas, literally, anymore. Ryker found himself in the middle of an arena, bigger than the ruined colosseum in Europe it seemed. He began walking around, looking for an exit.<br/><br/><span style="text-decoration: underline">Anthony</span><br/>Anthony woke up with a yawn, stretching before noticing he wasn't in the library anymore. He'd pulled an all nighter, studying for an exam. He remembered a strange guy asking him to pick a card or do some kind of magic trick, he wasn't sure. Rubbing his eyes, he noticed a tattoo on his left wrist, a "J" with the black spade symbol next to it, which was the card he had picked the night before. "What did you do now?" he asked himself, getting up. "And how did I get here...?"<br/><br/><span style="text-decoration: underline">Cai</span><br/>Cai looked around with a sinister grin after seeing a red "10" next to a heart on his left wrist.<span style="font-style: italic">It worked...</span>He walked around, waiting for the others to arrive.<br/><br/><span style="text-decoration: underline">Braxton</span><br/>His black hair a mess, Braxton jumped when he woke up, his green eyes darting around to analyze his new surroundings. "Alyse?" he called. She was nowhere to be seen. He remembered falling asleep with her curled in his arms. He wondered if it was a good thing she wasn't here.<span style="font-style: italic">She's at home, with you in bed. You're having a dream; a</span>weird<span style="font-style: italic">dream, but a dream nonetheless.</span>Braxton felt a small, cool breeze along his skin and realized he was clad in only his black boxers. "This better be a dream," he groaned.<br/><br/><span style="text-decoration: underline">Cooper</span><br/>Cooper opened his brown eyes with a groan. With a pounding headache, he sat up and looked around.<span style="font-style: italic">How much did I drink last night?</span>Standing up, he saw a red "4" next to a diamond symbol on his left wrist. "What the hell guys? I thought hazing was over!" he called loudly. He began walking around, looking for an exit.<br/><br/><span style="text-decoration: underline">Wryn</span><br/>Wryn sat above the arena in the stands. He had his feet propped up on the wall in front of him, waiting for Azura and Morpheus to get back. He watched as the people he handed out cards to began to appear in the arena and walk around. "I think he'll do pretty well. Seems to have a level head about him and obviously isn't a pushover. What do you think?" he asked Brooke, who had been sitting next to him, as he pointed towards the brown haired man named Ryker.
