Confused, Team up?

Start from the beginning
                                    

I woke up; with my head aching, it was like a hammer was pounding onto it nonstop, I looked around, confused as I was at a tent; a very fancy tent, the sleeping bag that I was sleeping doesn't even feel like one; it feels more like a bed.

The cloth around me was a cotton texture, and outside was a silky one. I ascended my hand towards my head, and touched the back of it, remembering that I was bleeding before, and it was a very huge cut as well.

Once I touched it, I could no longer feel the liquid substance; instead I only felt my own skin, I rose a brow, surprised.

'Where's Ryujin?' I asked myself as I stood up; only to sit back down due to my head hurting even more.

'Fucking headache.'

I sighed, as I looked at the front, where the entrance is, I found out that it was closed, so to speak, no one was with me, nonetheless, no one would probably hear my struggles right now.

I slowly grabbed the blanket, and took a closer inspection, I was interested on Ryujin's friends' tastes in things.

'I'm pretty sure they don't have a taste for very royal things..' I said to myself, doubting, I shake my head, and sighed once again.

*Zip*

A silent noise was heard, I looked at the entrance, while letting go of the blanket, the flap finally opens, leading the sunlight to enter the tent.

I instinctively closed my eyes, since I was not used to the sunlight directly hitting my face.

Once I got used to the sunlight, I saw a familiar figure, who's currently blocking the sun with her head, and had a sly smile plastered on her face; which made me sigh in relief knowing that she's okay.

"Ryujin, you gave me a living scare; thank goodness that you're okay.." I said, while standing up; slowly this time which made my head hurt but not as worse as the first one.

"Did you scare those guys away? Or something? I heard them begging for mercy, and all that stuff, plus I saw.. 3.. no.."

Ryujin tensed up when I started counting; I could hear her curse underneath her breath.

"What? Are they your friends?" I asked, while walking towards her slowly, Ryujin looks towards the ground and sighs.

She nods at my question, earning a confused look from me, I stopped a few inches away from her, I crossed my arms towards my chest.

"Since when did you have friends- ah, Yeji and Lia.. and those two, right?" I asked again, earning a small nod from her.

"How? I mean, I know that your camp is in the middle-"

Once everything settles in, I face palmed myself due to my stupidity. I groan as I sigh deeply.

"I'm at your camp currently, am I right." I said, not even bothering to have a questioning tone Ryujin looks at me, and nearly laughs at my face, making me groan more.

"Shush okay? My head is being beaten up over here! Plus whose camp am I in?" I asked, earning silence from the latter.

Ryujin thinks for a while then says;

"Yuna's" 

I nodded at her answer, I was about to leave the tent when she quickly stops me by blocking the entrance with her whole body, she looks more worried which made me confused.

"What's up?" I asked while stopping on my tracks and tilting my head, Ryujin looks towards the side, and nods, the looks towards me, with a small smile plastered onto her face.

"Since.. well, you can't be alone in the challenge, and last night indicates that, can't you just join us?" Ryujin asks, making me look at her completely baffled.

"Are you saying... that.. you are feeling sorry for me? You aren't Ryujin, who are you?" I asked, while looking at her, closely I could feel my patience running low.

"No! No! What I meant is that I nearly lost you okay? You losing a challenge is also not you! I'm not doing this out of pity, I'm doing this cause I don't want to lose a friend of mine and fail the test!" Ryujin explains nervously, while waving her hands in denial, making me look at her confusingly.

'I mean.. I nearly lost the test without her.. and her friends I should..' 

I looked at her and sighed.

"Fine, fine, just because you saved my ass last night okay? I'll make it up to you when I get the chance." I said, earning a huge smile from her.

"Thanks! Also, once you see my teammates you promise that you won't teleport away." Ryujin says, while looking at me with an expectant look.

I was confused about why she asked me, but I promised.

 "I'm a woman of my words, Ryujin." I said, while shaking my head, Ryujin happily leads me outside, which made it more weird.

Once I was outside, my confusion was turned upside down.

I was met with 8 females, they all had an amused smile etched on their face, I silently cursed myself for accepting Ryujin's request without asking.

"Let's see if you're a woman of your word then, Y/N."


'You have got to be fucking kidding me.'
