Shadow heads to the main doors while leaving his shadow to deal with the trainees for a bit. after all even if they reach the center thats only the start of the hell they have to go through today. He opens the door and looks at the one standing in front of him. " How can i help you sir. not often i see one with as much tech as you."

In the center of the area stood a pitch black version of Shadow. A lance in its hand as it waits for the others to show up. watching them slowly make their way out fo the maze. " This will be interesting. One that is sliding through the shadows, one that is fully on edge, one with interesting powers, and then the other one. Well wont help them if they cant keep up." it mutters to itself.
