Ok, now, to the story.

Prologue
The Alpha Games are somewhat a competition for the best Jammers. The winners are picked to be the future Alphas, but there is a big minus of the games. The losers (who took part in the competition but didn't take a place from 1-3) would have their gems and so on taken away. My mother was one to participate in this, but trust me, the experience was not something I would like to talk about. Thats why I'm talking about my own story.

Chapter One
I was a young rabbit at the time, and my elephant friend, Otto, had also joined the games as well. I had lots of rares, which was what got me into the games. At first, I thought of the games as fun. When I was little I thought they were literally games where you pretended to be an alpha. You can see how wrong I was. During the departure from my family, I was immensely sad. What would become of them if I lost?

During my interview, I was eager to talk to the crowd, to raise my voice and say "I am ready for these alpha games!" Then I remembered mother. I stopped and began to stammer into the microphone. "I-I-I am ready. I cannot t-truly promise that I will w-win, or l-l-lose. I will d-do my best, even i-if I fail in the e-end." The crowd cheered, not seeming to notice my stammers. I felt pride, regardless of my real feelings.

The training room's outfits were rather uncomfortable, and hard to put on. During the short time in the stuffy place, I met the others. Here's a quick list of them:

Otto the elephant (you know him already)

Harper and Poseidon the two seals

Ruby the rhino

Cornelius the crocodile

Sophia the horse

Marco the penguin

Edmund the giraffe

Amelia the fox

LaSalle the raccoon

Jade the snow leopard

Juno the arctic wolf

Boomer the kangaroo

Sigurd the deer

Valentina the eagle

Atlas the lion

Olive the cheetah

Biff the hyena

Hudson the otter

Barrett the polar bear

Avalon the owl

Felicity the lynx

Andy the llama

Sorry that it's such a long list. But that was everyone else besides me. We spent a good while training, and I learned that I was especially good with the bow. My karate skills would also come in handy.

Chapter Two
As the bugle rang, I was careful not to step off my podium too early. When I felt the time was right, I jumped off and ran across the arena ground, feeling lively. I began to run away from the cornucopia, but then stopped. Going back, I grabbed a handful of throwing knives. I was about to exit the cornucopia, but I suddenly heard a hoot. I looked in a shadow and saw Avalon, perched quietly. She seemed to panic when footsteps sounded outside. She accidentally let out a loud squawk. Ruby rushed in. I hid quietly in the corner, hoping she wouldn't see me. She did, however, spot the bright red feathers of Avalon. She began to get into charging position. I used the opportunity to rush out and run away, hearing a loud, shrilling shriek echoing across the ground. Ruby ran out of the cornucopia into the bushes.

Avalon did not.

I hid in the shrubs, hoping I would not be harmed. I glanced out, coming eye to eye with Juno. Her friendliness was her beauty's betrayal. She leaped at me, swinging her claws. It left a deep claw mark on my cheek. I screamed and yelled for help. It didn't come. Juno eventually cornered me against a tree. I backed up as she lunged, raising my paws in a feeble attempt to block the onslaught that never came. I opened my eyes to see Poseidon in a tight scuffle with Juno. Juno was winning, until Poseidon went limp. Juno let out a triumphant cry, but Poseidon lunged forward, crashing into Juno and bowling her backward. She was stunned, which gave him the upper paw. He rained blows on her until she could fight no more. Her struggles grew fainter and fainter until...

Poseidon snapped her neck in one clean break, making a loud ''crack. I stepped back in horror. ''Poseidon was panting, a wound on his shoulder. "You okay?" "I'm fine," I replied, feeling sick but thankful. "Thank you." "Welcome." I started to walk away. "Where do you think you're going?" I stopped. "Exploring?" "You need a companion. It's your first time in the games, isn't it?"
