Chapter 12

• It's been a week since Aurora began her consistent training. She would leave home whenever Caspian went to work, making sure to return before he returned.
• The list of those representing the country in the competition against the Western world was out. Aurora's name was boldly written at the top of the list posted on the board. Annabel's eyes widened in disbelief. She wiped her eyes with the back of her right hand and looked at the list again, carefully searching for her name.
• "This is a lie! No! Something is amiss!" she screamed. She wished she could break the glass covering the board, tear down the list, and rewrite a new one with her name at the top.
