Black Doors

Katara and Desmond stop when they see the black Door, Desmond holds the door knob and immediately opens it and to their surprise a fire suddenly appears that almost burns them alive. Desmond closed that door back, and both of them were shocked.

"I think my eyelashes almost got burned." Katara said, and blinked a few times. She didn't expect to see Desmond getting surprised, his eyes widened too. They both step back and hold their heart because it stops beating for a bit.

"Woah, that shit scares me." Desmond said, new fears unlocked. Both of their faces have a black on it, and when Katara notices it she laughs. 

"Ahahahaahahahahahahhaahha your face!" She said, Desmond look at her and laughs too. 

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA your face!" They pointed at each other and laughed in each other's face, from the arena the crowds also laughed. Katara made a wacky face that made everyone laugh even more, so they decided to continue to walk in the tower and find water that could wash their faces. They continue to laugh at each other, they both stop running when they see two participants. 

The group also stops, and looks at them. Both Katara and Desmond raise their eyebrows, and look at them from head to toe.

"Wanna fight?" Katara asks and then makes a formable stance, the two of them incline their head and it seems like they're preventing themselves from laughing. Katara just rolled her eyes and just ignored them and continued to laugh, as they were far enough they heard a laugh from those two. 

"What are they laughing for, tsk!" She said,

"I told you, your face is hilarious." Desmond said, Katara laughed.

"Who's talking? Your face is more hilarious!" She responded and they both laughed as they looked at each other once again.

"We need some water." Desmond uttured.

"Yeah, I badly need one." Katara agrees. 

They stop running again when they see a black door, Katara was about to twist the door knob when she remembers what happened. A sudden image of herself getting burned alive runs to her head, she makes a face and turns around.

"You should be the one who opens it." She said to Desmond, Desmond pointed to himself.

"Meeee? No, it's your turn. I already opened the first one" He quickly disagreed, Katara raised her eyebrows and put her two hands on her waist.

"Whuuuuut? You're a man, you shouldn't let a fine, gorgeous, elegant woman like me open the door!" Katara makes her voice a soft one just like she learned in Mrs. Ramos' class, and makes herself a vulnerable woman. Tip number 2 How to Seduce man. Rely on man, you know. They have big egos, and once you show yourself as vulnerable they will think you're an easy prey and boom! They'll hunt you, but of course that's what is just part of the plan. 

Instead of getting into her trap, Desmond made it look like 'he was disgusted face', well ladies it doesn't work anytime time. 

"Stop making that face!" Katara irately said, and made a poker face.

"What face?" Desmond faked innocently.

"Those disgusting facial expressions, do you want to die? Open this door now." She was bossy. 

"Are you not gonna open the door, because we will." They both heard a voice from the back, they saw two men standing behind them and it seemed like they're willing to open the door. Katara and Desmond looked at each other, and nodded.

"Aheheheheh feel free to open your boss, we apologize for delaying you." Katara said, Desmond silently agreed. They step out from the door and take a further step to be far from the black door. 

A guy with big muscles and more taller than Desmond steps in and holds the door knob, two of them just observe and wait for him to open the door. He was twisting the door knob, Katara gulp. They were like watching a horror movies that any time soon, a stupid protagonists hiding to some monster that was just around looking for her. 

Suddenly the guy stopped twisting the door knob and looked at them, they immediately averted their eyes.

"What are you two still doing here anyway?" The guy asks Katara to scratch her nape and then push Desmond.

"What are you still doing here? I said, ``Let's go." She said, and walked still pushing Desmond. 

"Okay, good luck boss." She said, and pretended to walk away. But then they hide to the wall from the other side of the hallway, and continue to watch them. 

"What if the egg was there?" Desmond asks Katara to stop and realizes something.

"Woah, I didn't think about that?" She said, so that means they're not the only one who's finding an item that they pick?! Damn! What the holy mother fuxker.

That's why that genius professor says, only the strong one will remain. 

"Then we just need to steal it from them." She said and shrugs her shoulders, Desmond took a glance at Katara with confused expressions on his face. It was like he was solving a math problem, he couldn't understand the logic of the woman beside him.

"You say that, like it was easy." Desmond spoke.

"Oh c'mon, I thought you were strong. That's why I am relying on you, my life is in your hands. I will be forever grateful for your existence, I believe in your strength and power." It's obvious that's why's just sugar coating her, but look how overwhelmed he is because of her compliment. Well, half of those are true. 

"Don't say things like that..." Desmond whispered, his cheeks turning into a red potato. He was that easy huh? He was like a child being lured  by a cotton candy! You really can't judge the person if you don't know them. 

They watch the two guys open the door, both of them surprised because of that they witnessed. Katara prevents herself from laughing but she can't help it.

"Pffffff Aaahahhaahahahaahahhahahaaj holy shit!" She said Desmond immediately pulled her when the two guys noticed. Katara continues to laugh and hold her stomach because it aches, and she starts to lose energy. Those guys, just being showered by mud. What the hell is wrong with those doors? Full of surprise what the?! 

Desmond tries to poker face as much as he wants, but Katara continues to laugh and sit in the middle of the hallway because she loses her energy.

"Do you see their faces? Ahahahahahahahhaahahahha oh my god, it was full of mud!" She said, Desmond can't contain her laughs anymore that's why he started to laugh with Katara. 

"Pffff Damn, will you stop laughing?" Desmond complains as he laughs continue.

"But,ahahahahahahahah I-I can't ahahahahhahahahahah. Those two is hilarious. I'm glad we didn't open that freaking door, it's worst!" Desmond saw the two guys approaching, Desmond didn't have any choice but to carry Katara who continued to laugh. 

After a minute, Katara already stopped laughing hard. 

From the outside, in the Arena. While looking at Katara, the crown prince laughs silently. And Evan saw it, he smiles because it's the first time he saw the crown laughs. 

This woman is amazing, no wonder the prince fondly finds her interesting. 

The crowd had a different reaction to what they saw.

"She's part of the Selection right? How come she acts like that?" 

"Hahahahahahahahha that girl is funny, what's her name?" 

"I laughed so hard, this is hilarious. I had never seen such a fun game before." 

"Will she be able to survive? I think no, if she's alone. She'll definitely get killed." 

Katara and Desmond continue to fight while running in the hallway for who will open the next door, they fight like a kid.

"No, it's your turn. You should open the door next."

"But you didn't open the door last time!" Desmond disagrees.

"It's because I let those two open it, I lured them so it's your turn." 

"You're so stingy!" Katara gasps dramatically.

"You're mean, but you're still opening the door next. You'll follow me, because I am a gorgeous and elegant woman." And then she smiles sweetly. 

"Fine." Desmond gave in.

"Good!" Katara rejoiced. 

"Only if you find the next door, I'll open the door." Desmond said and ran.

"I didn't agree with that!"
