Prologue: The Beginning
AON ALL OR NOTHINGMinzy stood on the mat facing forward as did all the other students in her class. "Today is your final testing day. Your last chance. Do your best. Do you understand?" The teacher shouted.
"YES!"
We all shouted back.
The voices were mostly male.
Minzy and only six other of the fourty gathered individuals were females. I took several deep breaths. I couldn't afford to be nervous. I needed to concentrate and show them that I can do this.
