Anastasia was calm but determined and with eyes on her destination as her quiet steps silently rung through the room. We were all watching intensely as we all wanted to know how this potential seeker works and what the outcome of this process would be. Of course there might be a chance that it would anticlimactic.
"Young Cub, no matter what happens or what you feel, remember you stay calm and sane, do not leave the circle, do not move until I say so."
She nodded her head once with the same look of seriousness in her eyes and that straight face.
"Ok then, step in the middle of the circle."
Althgar gave her way to get to the circle. Now you can usually see through light but this, this was different. Once she stepped in she was completely engulfed in the sky blue light, there was no fog, the texture was still air but it seems like she just disappeared. The light grew stronger and changed colour halfway so now it was a white light at the bottom but it slowly because blue in the middle, no sounds were made. We were still watching the column of light closely, just in case we'd miss any minor detail.
Then the light cleared a bit and a shadow could be seen, she was looking up with a tense expression on her face and was clearly gritting her teeth. There was a strange collection of the air that cover her but only reached her neck before ending like branches stretching up. I turned to Althgar to see his face of astonishment before it quickly covered over. I scanned her body for any other changes but before I could tell myself to do that my eyes were drawn to her hands. They were covered in thick unnaturally white air and they were an unnatural shape. Then it all cleared away and the blue and white light was gone. It left Lioness in the middle with thick air still surrounding her feet and hands.
"Interesting, you have two potentials. And one of them is even more incredible"
He waved his hand and the air dissipated showing her bare feet and hands, her shoes were gone but the stranger thing was that I swear I could see a tinge if blue and white on her feet. Her hand were all veiny and appeared a lot stronger, there were also the nails, they were long and appeared by sharp and hard. Reaching about 5cm in length they looked out of proportion with the rest of the hand. There was also a slight tinge of blue on her hands.
"From the ancient white tiger you have received its wind and claws,"
Althgar mentioned with a bright smile he then dismissed her and she joined the rest of us sitting on the floor which were still staring at her hands. She looked at her own hands also in astonishment, I know Lion, how is such a thing possible. When he said from the ancient white tiger, it's a stretch because of the little information but, I think he meant one of the four guardians from Chinese mythology. That means that the Hu main family are direct descendent from that beast. That's an impressive background.
"Next person up,"
After that performance, Keung walked up with a bit of a shaky step in his walk but he seemed like he was excited at the same time. He walked up hastily and stood next to Althgar to await further instructions.
"Another tiger. Step in and head the warnings mentioned before,"
He told tiger in a stern voice.
He stepped into the blue light and it again engulfed him then changed colours, the exact same ones as Lioness. The same process happened but unlike Lion he made some painful grunts inside the light.
"Sensitive idiot,"
I heard from Anastasia.
I chuckled at her statement but went back to looking at the white and blue light as it started to clear. He had glowing blue around his eyes, then also a glow around his whole body up to the neck. This was a brighter glow then Lioness so I'm going to assume he has two potentials and one was to do with his whole body.
The glowing started to clear to leave a faint glow around his now blue eyes and his body. He looked like an ice prince with those shining blue eyes that seemed like they were glowing, they were darker then Fox's but still quite light.
"Also interesting, like your sister you have two potentials."
I was right!
"From the ancient white tiger you have received its speed and eyes,"
He then smiled at him and then looked at our group with expectation shining in his eyes, I don't know why he had so much that is showed so clearly, was it rare to have two potentials? Then again thinking about it, the gene pool is this diluted and our group has 2 people probably three that have 2 potentials each.
"Next,"
Then the third and last tiger went, Kung was like a summer breeze but at the same time like a machine, through his eyes he was analysing, being very reserved in physical movement, though reserved he was still carefree.
"Same as your brother,"
Althgar seemed to have just gone to the point of four words because he wasn't bothered to say something 6 times. I wouldn't either.
He stepped on and the light again engulfed him, once it started clearing the glowing bits were his eyes and whole body, it looked the same as Keung's but the light around the body was a bit more concentrated on the body.
"As expected if twins, from the ancient white tiger you have received its eyes and reflexes. Both of you have the gift of the eyes, you are brothers with a close bond, do not break that bond,"
That was ominous, what was the consequence then if he decided it was so bad that he just had to tell them to not break their bond?
"Next,"
Eleanor walked up and stood there.
"Little angel, do the same thing as the tigers and also head the same warnings,"
That was all he said before she walked into the blue light which engulfed her left her blue eyes glowing as brightly as the sun on water. They shone and her head never went up. Her cutting state was all that was visible and the light changed to pure white but still left her blue eyes glowing. The light shone brighter until it reached a point that u had to cover my eyes. I looked to Althgar who had wide eyes at the shining light.
"It's not possible,"
