Trainer) Oh your marks, get set... GO!
*Everyone starts the obstacle course. The first thing is a beam hanging some way off the ground. Phoebe crouches for a moment, then springs up and lands on it easily. She runs along it and comes to a rope. She goes fully gerbil and scrambles along, using her sharp claws to grip it. She reaches the other end and stops. Her ears go down as she looks at the pool of water in front of her. She phases to half way and, taking a deep breath, jumps in. For a moment she just splashes around, trying to get calm. Then she pushes off with a strong stroke and swims to the end. She clambers out, soaking wet but triumphant. The next thing is a maze, but it's covered so there's no light. Phoebe just smiles and runs in.*
*A while later. Phoebe stops and pricks her ears. She can hear the sound of whimpering near by. She follows the sound along another tunnel and comes across a huddled figure.*
Phoebe) Saffie! What's up?
Saffie) I'm lost! And I can't see! And I can't hear! And I can't smell! And I ca--
Phoebe) Ok! Ok! I get it! Follow me, I'll find the way out.
Saffie) But how can you?!
Phoebe) I'm a gerbil!! Going along pitch black tunnels is what we do! Now come this way, I was on the right track before I came this way, so follow me...
*They go back to the tunnel Phoebe was in before. They go along a bit further, then...*
Phoebe) Whats that?!
*Her ears go back against her head slightly as a high pitched pipping echos through the tunnel.*
Voice) ME!!
Phoebe&Saffie) kight?!
Kight) Yes! I'm lost!!
Phoebe) But you're a bat aren't you?!
Phoebe) Come with us, we'll take you! I can smell it when I've already gone down some place.
*They continue walking for sometime, gradually picking up more people as they go, and when they finally reach the end, they have most of the teenage Phases with them.*
Phoebe) Look! Light!
*They all run towards it and spill out into a a huge circular room. A load of people who are sitting behind desks look up in mild surprise.*
Woman) Very good. The first ones back. Well done Phoebe, full marks!
Phoebe) Well, I, I...
Man) You not only completed the tasks very well, but you also helped all of these others out from the maze. Well done!
*Just then Jetta comes stumbling from the tunnel. She is dirty, dusty, disheveled, and very very wet. She forces a smile on her face. She hasn't noticed the others yet.*
Jetta) *Breathlessly* So, I'm the first one, am I? Good, because I--
*Some one clears their throat. She looks round.*
Jetta) WHAT?! I AM NEVER LAST!! I HAVE TO BE FIRST!! NO ONE CAN HAVE BEATEN ME!!! I AM PURELY THE BEST! NO ONE CAN HAVE GOTTEN HERE BEFORE ME!! NOT LEAST HER!!
*She points savagely at Phoebe*
Jetta) SHE CHEATED!! SHE MUST'VE! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!
*She faints*
Phoebe) Ouch... she can yell...
Italics) Oooh dear... Jetta is NOT happy...
