Combat class finished in a bundle of sweat and now we were just talking off the exhaustion and stress from the examination. We reached room and then, I guess we realised that we had nothing to do all homework was handed in and there was really nothing new to talk about because we talked about the examination on the way back. Then I realised something. I have no idea was everyone's potentials are!
"Hey, what are all your potentials?"
Then Dominic answered back this time.
"I already told you, strength and speed,"
I almost hit my head.
"I want you to show us,"
I swear he almost said, oh, as the realisation hit him hard.
Then I remembered Eleanor's wings.
"Wait, Eleanor can we all see your wings when you activate your potential or is it still in spirit form,"
Her eyes widened.
"How?"
"I can see spirits but not clearly, only the gathering of them like when a potential activates."
She nodded her head and answered back.
"Yes we can, when the potentials develop enough it should transfer to physical form."
She knows more then me. I don't remember that information every being revealed to us during manipulation class or potential class.
"Go on Dominic we're all waiting."
Everyone then followed my lead and sat on the ground to stare at him.
"Fine,"
He grunted out, as if he was reluctant but I don't think that was the case. He didn't brush his hair back as he does when he doesn't want to do something. He must be wanting to show everyone how he's improved. I guess it's because he's the only high class among us noble heirs. Must be wanting to show us that he was not only chosen by luck.
He stood there for a second and I could see the potential building up power, but then he stopped.
"Wait, can we go to the throne room to get the training equipment out?"
Oh right, if his potentials are strength and speed he can't exactly show off in a closed area.
"Lets go then," Anastasia seemed to have realised it quicker then me. That's what it takes to be a doctor I guess. Quick reactions can save a life or kill a life.
...
The throne room was set up for each one of us in a different part of the room so that we could go through each person's potential and see what they worked on in their private class.
Jackal was standing at his apparatus which was composed of a speed gun and a thick post.
"First speed."
He announced to us. We were all sitting done and ready for his performance. Eleanor had a speed gun in hand standing about 5 metres away from him.
He ran, it was basically a blur, though I could see him clearly with red eyes. He stopped as he reached the end of the room and Eleanor held the gun out for us to see.
'5km/second'
That's what it read. That was a ridiculous speed for a runner! Even one with a potential.
"Next, strength."
He positioned himself in front of the post with his fist drawing back slowly. He struck and with a bang! He left a great bit hole in the pole...
That was deeper then any hole I've every created with my claws. That's so unfair!
He did a little bow with his head signalling the end of his performance. With a little applause Anastasia stood up.
"I'll go next then."
Dominic gave a nod to her as she passed him for acknowledgment before sitting down with the rest of us.
"My potentials, the wind and claws."
She held her hands up horizontal to her stomach and facing, palms up. With a few bone cracking sounds her hands eventually turned into those agile in a way beautiful hands that were tipped with dangerous claws. Then a second later there was a disturbance in the air. It was small as all disturbances in air are but it was clearly noticeable.
She walked over to her equipment that she put up. It was a dummy, like the one that used for combat training but it had moveable parts and the dummy was made out of wood.
She let out a big breath then started to attack on the dummy. She struck the dummy with claws out and wind flying in directions that made the dummy's moveable parts spin like crazy. She did damage by stopping some of the moving parts at the precise time to do the most damage. Then with a final blow to what would have been the neck with the claws duck in deep she stopped. She was breathing a little heavy with her hand held at the neck of the dummy. The wind stopped and all the parts stilled. It was a tense atmosphere for a second before she pulled her claws out and gave us a little smirk as if saying, beat that. We applauded her performance. Then both the tigers got up and high fives each other before moving in.
"Oh you'll see,"
They said back at her smirk and all that did was make her smirk bigger.
So they apparently want to do it together. They did a simultaneous deep traditional bow with a smile before walking to their equipment.
"Our potentials"
"Reflexes, eyes,"
"Speed, eyes,"
They said with their normal swapping of sentences with Keung going first.
"We hope you enjoy,"
They ended their short speech unison.
"For this performance we would like two volunteers."
"Anyone willing?"
For the sake of this comedy show I got out of my spot and went in head first.
Dominic then got up as well.
"Two brave volunteers, good good."
"Please, start attacking us."
Ummmmm. You don't ask for volunteers then tell them to attack you! That's not how it works!
Never mind that. I threw my first punch with an enhancement 5 but it never hit flesh even with the speed it was going to at. I hit air. Then I saw Dominic also looking confused. Then I knew what was happening. Their potentials gave them the speed and the insight to dodge so just for the show I kept attacking and lowered my enhancement level so that I wouldn't waste to much energy. When the tigers though they kept it for enough time they simultaneously came in and hung onto our backs, piggy back style and had their hands at our necks. They then hopped down and did a big bow to the small audience. We all applauded them and they went to sit down.
