~What went wrong?~
The hazy view of the surroundings slowly came back, everything felt numb, cold, dark. Things happening around Genzen seemed to be in slow motion as bits of flaming debris fell from a high ceiling. He was laying on some cement floor, there was a puddle of water as well, but the building was on fire. He rolled onto his hands and watched as he was swiftly surrounded by four other people from the opposing team for his leadership exam. Should he surrender? He could barely remember how he got into this situation. The people around him were grabbing some of their magitech so instinctively Genzen grabbed for his own, but it wasn't there. He couldn't feel his energy either.
A knife was fired his way, he lazily avoided it, though it still sliced his side as it passed by. Why was he so tired? Even the pain was dull at this point. He tried to activate his Seikatsugan, but the strain it put on him only flared his eyes Red before he had to shut them from pain. That was the wrong move, as his flinch caused the others to attack to take advantage.
Before he could open his eyes once more he was slammed from his right side by attacks launching him to the side and into a burning wooden pillar which snapped and splintered as his body bounced off it causing new spiraling momentum as he crashed to the ground through a table, pushing a few chairs out of the way as his momentum stopped. Groaning from pain he looked up in time to see someone sailing in their arm glowing from some magitech weapon. He didn't really have time to inspect it as he rolled out of the way trying to push through and get to a standing position. Though one of the other guys was right there to land a combination of punches that staggered him again.
~Why am I even trying so hard?~
Genzen was able to deflect a kick, only to be met with another punch which caused him to fall against a wall. His vision had become a tunnel that couldn't focus. He saw the guy approaching with a high strike, tilting his head to the side the punch crumbled the wall behind him as it slammed into it. Was this because of who he was? Were they pushing him so hard because of who his dad was? What kind of crap was that? Was his dad watching? Was this his doing? Surely a lecture about the Main Family would be something waiting for him if he lost. His side throbbed from the cut which made him focus just enough to see the guy in front of him chuckling.
His eyes widened as he reacted. For the first time in his life he felt true rage, he legitimately hated these guys. It was time for him to counter attack.
