The Horror

(Hydra Star System- Planet Sinetera)

Sophie squinted as the harsh light of the two yellow suns hanging overhead shone directly on her face.

In front of her was nothing but the deep blue colour of the ocean and Sophie could hear the roaring sounds of the endless waves crashing onto the shore. 

Strange looking aquatic creatures swam deep below in the depths with one monster in particular resembling a colossal sea serpent.

The midterm exams had finally begun, and the students were sent to a remote planet located in a nearby sector.

The objective of this exam was to survive for three nights without the barrier device attached to the students' bodies being activated.

Points were allocated based on the actions taken by the students over the course of three nights, but the exact breakdown of the marks was not told to them.

Planet Sinetera's surface was entirely covered with water but artificial islands had been constructed for the exam.
