A/N : Only a few people will understand what I am about to say : I am very sorry for giving you the impression that I am copying The 6 Hope's Book. We will try to make our story plot different from yours, so please don't stress too much. I really am sincerely sorry.

Chapter 3

VICTORIA'S P.O.V

Tessa changed her weapon. Again.

That girl likes so many weapons... When would she decide on one?

She holds up a shining bow proudly, brown in colour made of polished wood.

I swing my nanchak around, bending my elbow and straightening my arm, mesmerized by the way the sunlight beamed on the metal nanchak.

I love my nanchak. More than anything else in the world. I swing it back downwards, and tuck it under my armpit.

"Assemble! " Zoe Ern calls out.

I get up and head over to the main bulk of girls.

"We need to send a spy over to the Boys! " she says, her voice filled with determination.

Murmurs started, soon turning into protests.

"We'll be slaughtered! "

"They'll torture us! "

"We'll be found out! "

"Well, " Zoe Ern says, her voice cutting neatly over all the protests," We won't know how to defeat them until we know and see what it is like right? "

All the protests died down immediately.

Zoe Ern picks up her axe and points it at me, her mouth not hesitating.

"Victoria will go as the spy. "

I froze. "M-me? " I stuttered, glancing nervously at everyone.

"Yes, you are the smallest and also very sneaky. You took my packet of almonds that I had on my desk two days ago! "

I look down, ashamed, but still not willing to go.

"Anyways, you are still going. It is the best decision for our clan. " Zoe Ern says, waving her axe at me.

I swallow, but nod my head, accepting my fate.

May and Tessa come over to me. "Too bad Victoria. " they sneer, giggling at me.

I blink furiously before the tears spill.

Then most of the girls go for training, only leaving me, Alyssa and Christabella left.

Alyssa looks at me in a pitying way, before picking up her flame thrower and start to burn down targets.

Christabella takes out a poison dart and gives it to me. "Just in case. " she says. "Wish you luck with surviving. "

I shove the dart into my pocket before heading to Zoe Ern who has all my instructions ready already.

"Okay, " she says, giving me a small pack. "That is food and water. You actually won't be needing it, but that's just for emergency. "

Then she passes me a compass. "They live somewhere to the West. You should be back by midnight. "

Then she looks me in the eye. "All our lives depend on you, so come back in one piece."

I know that what she says isn't true to her and she is saying it for the sake of saying it, but I choose to believe in it anyway.

I nod firmly.

"Now go." she says, determination written all ovee her face.

I set off, picking an apple from a tree and eating it along the way, going towards the West.

9 P.M. (Several hours later)

I have walked for a few hours and am very tired.

No. Very tired is an understatement.

I am extremely tired.

My feet are tired and feel like they are about to drop off any time. I sigh, exhausted, and sit on a rock and lean back to what seems like an ivory bush. Instead, I lean back and fall over backwards. I fall, and land on my back.

"Ow!" I say,before remembering where I probably was.

I looked around, and sure enough, saw a farm-like structure made of wood. Beside it was a huge plain of sand- probably the arena for the boys to battle.

I absorb the image into my brain. I'll need to report this to Zoe E later.

I sneakily enter and run through the long yellow grass, weaving in between the grasses, for once glad that I always wore bright colors. My shirt was bright yellow, and I was small, hardly noticeable at all.

I crawl through the bushes and grass, and before I knew it, I was before the great farm-like structure made of wood.

I gasped. It was quite gigantic. I crawled over to the door.

"Hey! " a boy's voice could be heard.

I swallow, and get up, speeding towards the door.

Before I managed to reach the door, a hand encloses sound my wrist and yanks me back, hard.

I fall backwards and howl in pain when my back comes into contact with the ground.

"Why hello there, girl spy. " a boy above me sneers.
