How I Became The Strongest Sovereign

"Zeref, what the hell did you get us into?!" Jace yelled as he grabbed my arm and stared at the infinite reflections of ourselves. This was a terrible idea, we were in a mirror maze.

"Where did Johan go? He was here a moment ago." I asked looking round pointlessly like that would help me find him.

"Oww!" Jace rubbed his nose, he ran into a mirror by accident. This place was making me trip, I couldn't tell which way we were meant to go and my sense of distance was all messed up. Luckily the girls didn't come, otherwise not only Johan would have split from us.

I let him be the test subject and lead the way, he bumped into mirrors left right and centre and it made me giggle each time.

"We're never getting out of here." Jace cried as he looked at me, "Can't you get us out of here?"

"Yeah, I'm tired of walking in circles myself." I replied before taking a deep breath. I closed my eyes and used my sixth sense to work out where the exit was roughly, "Yup, found the exit."

I opened my eyes again and ran straight towards the direction of the exit, shattering the mix of mirrors and glass, creating a path of havoc behind me. I ran through the mirrors, breaking holes into them. I saw a figure while running through hundreds of mirrors.

"OH MY GOD! YOU IDIOT!" Johan's voice came from behind me but I kept breaking through the mirrors.

"ZEREF WAIT FOR ME!" Jace yelled, jumping through the holes I made in the glass.

"You guys broke the fucking maze!" Johan scolded before finally deciding to follow us.

"Wait for me!" Jace shouted from behind me as he ran through the vast amounts of shattered glass on the ground.

When we made it out I talked with the manager and ended up paying a couple of Gold coins for the fixture of their maze. More than anything they were suspicious of how I broke through the maze without mana, I shrugged.

"Malia!" Jace yelled as he grabbed my shoulder for attention and pointed behind us.

"You guys broke the whole maze! You dummies!" Malia said in shock as she walked out of the arcade, looking back at the destruction and wrecked glass spread on the ground.

"That's what I said." Johan rolled his eyes.

I shrugged pointing at Jace, like it was his fault.

The maze incident ended and the alchemy association accepted my apology and the compensation of 750 gold coins. I received a couple punches from Naz but I quickly saved myself by pulling them to the highest ride in the whole park, nicknamed 'the ride of death'.

Jace screamed his lungs out next to me, singing continuous C7 notes in my ear. His mouth stayed wide open as if he was eating the air and he looked like he was being possessed. Everyone jumped on the rollercoaster except Sara, she refused when I asked her.

This guy's screams were louder than anyone else's in the park and we had not even gotten to the drop yet. The ride had just begun and we were slowly being raised to the top.

"SHUT UP!" Malia yelled next to me, trying to save her ears.

Naz whacked Jace's thigh, "We haven't even started!". The rollercoaster had 4 rows, with each accommodating 2 seats. Malia and I sat at the front, followed by Jace and Naz, then Ciara and Johan just behind them.

"I WANNA GO BACK DOWN!" Jace yelled again.

"Just man up already!" Ciara shouted from behind, covering her ears.

His loud screams didn't stop until we had reached the apex point of the rollercoaster. Looking down from a 120 metre height, the roller coaster stopped in an inclined position. We all looked at the ground. This height didn't bother me, but Jace's non sensual screams did.

"I'm going to diieee! I'm going to die today!!" he screamed, starting to gag.

"JACE I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU-!" Naz screamed, turning away from him.

Suddenly the ride dropped at a fast speed making me gasp in shock and hold onto Malia's sleeve. I heard the vague sound of vomiting and screaming from behind be but I was laughing too much notice. Malia screamed next to me, smiling and holding onto her handle. I gripped her sleeve as the roller coaster twisted and turned. At some point, the loudest thing you could hear was Jace's cries.

The ride turned upside down at a rapid speed. Malia grabbed my arm tightly, as the wind brushed against us, gluing us to our seats. My heart dropped to my stomach and an adrenaline rush flushed my muscles. This feeling was intense!

"Aaaarghhhh!" Everyone screamed in sync, Jace being louder than anyone, setting a world record for screaming the loudest.

The drop finished in a couple seconds and we were at the bottom again, "Let's do that again!" I suggested, Ciara and Johan agreed from behind.

I turned back after helping Malia out to see Jace wobbling out of his seat with a red face and covered in vomit. He must have vomited when the rollercoaster dropped. I burst out laughing as the theme park staff walked past us, shaking their heads.

"I am traumatised. Never again…" Naz sighed, holding her chest and taking Malia's hand to climb out.

After that we bought Jace some new clothes and enjoyed scaring the sh*t out of him; we took him on almost every ride in the park. Thanks to the VIP black card we were able to go on almost all the rides without queuing up. The adults also met up with us after and we were getting ready to depart.

"I'm going to the bathroom quickly." Malia said to me.

"Oh want me to come?" Naz smiled at her but Malia shook her head.

"I need to take a sh*t. Buy me a teddy though." Malia waved.

I scoffed at her honesty, watching as she walked away.

"I really want to get a drink." Naz turned to me.

"Ok I'll buy the teddy. You go get a drink."
