Enor moves towards Danoi's classroom in an almost dancing motion as Anuk follows slowly behind.
They walk into the classroom as it is 1 giant hall with plant life everywhere, waterfalls, a transparent roof covered in openings all over, Anuk stares wide eyed all over as he sees people flying at speeds he didn't know were possible.
Enor folds out his wings from his clothing and leaps as he starts slowly traveling to the center of the hall in between 2 waterfalls as Anuk clumsily follows him.
With a soft landing they fold their wings back into their clothes, as Enor continues his dance like strut to the desk of Danoi just up ahead.
As the duo turn the corner they see the flight teacher explaining to a group of 3 students what their assignment is and tells them not to touch anything other than the floor once they enter any cave.
Danoi spots the two entering his office and continues ''And whatever you do, do NOT carry the material, shoot anything at it, or whatever comes to mind. Only that kid over there is to touch anything in that cave. He will tell you what it looks like so you know what to LOOK for'' Danoi commands while pointing as his eyes.
Anuk steps closer to the teacher and his pupils and starts ''it is a mostly wood brown looking rock with a rough texture, i named it Kanite. It is more ragged unlike regular rocks which are often smooth with minimal impurities, i went ahead and created a very small piece of the stuff for clarity''
Anuk reaches for his pocket as Danoi grabs his hand and requests him to kindly not bring unknown dangerous explosives into his office.
''fair'' Anuk says as he relaxes his hand when Danoi lets go as he leans his legs and hands against his desk ''no use in waiting for too long, i'd rather have you back earlier than later so you can go and get this over with. Make sure you have your weapons with you and any damages to your body or deaths are on our lovely destruction teacher over there''
The inexperienced 4 follow Mr. Enor out of the flight classroom as they whisper among each other in excitement for their mission.
The group arrives at the training field as Enor turns to them and says ''Alright then! you lot are going to make history! Anuk, earlier you said you found it at a mountain to the west, correct?'' he nods, ''Then you shall depart into that direction! just past the library! Best of luck on gathering the Kanite!''
The squad folds out their wings and prepares for take-off. ''You need me to carry you?'' Fanel asks Anuk. ''I can fly! just not very fast is all...'' he says looking nervous. ''fold your wings back in, ill carry you'' Fanel assures Him.
He lifts the boy up and begins to take a head start by running and jumping off taking flight.
The other 2 fly besides them as they soar over the trees heading for the mountains. Anuk Holds onto Fanel tight, they move at such a speed he isn't used to and points to base of a specific mountain top.
Eventually they reach their destination and scout the area flying in an expanding circle for any dangerous wildlife before landing, after confirming they cannot detect any a soft landing and Fanel puts Anuk down as he stumbles for a bit having to get used to being still again.
''The cave should be somewhere along this wall here'' as he motions towards their left.
after a short walk they found an entrance, dark and wet is the path downwards as they peer into it.
Anuk reaches into his pocket and grabs the sample, he shows the flyers what it looks like, after that it goes back into his pocket and they enter the cave, it is wide enough for 2 to walk next to each other.
As they enter Anuk closes his eyes and channels his energy to create 2 lanterns with a bright light inside the casing. He hands one to the duo behind them as he holds the second one himself.
Looking along the lengthy walls of stone nothing sticks out as of yet, Fanel taps Anuk on the shoulder and points above them and says ''That looks pretty close to me, is that it?''
Anuk aims his light to get a better look, its a brown type of rock standing out from the grey stone surrounding it. ''Maybe'' he says walking to closer to the spot.
He cracks his hands and lays the tip of his fingers onto the unknown rock.
''Yeah that seems to be it!'' Anuk says, starting to leak energy from his fingers that shapes into an extraction tool.
The tool grabs onto the rock as 2 cutters fold out and start slowly slicing into the discovery with a screeching sound.
Fanel looks nervously at the cutter digging into the stone and asks ''you sure thats safe? heat near an explosive sounds like disaster to me, especially inside a cave'' Anuk looks at him and chuckles ''True! the funny thing is though, i extracted the alloy like this the first too, not knowing it was explosive and nothing happened! so i imagine it will be fine the second time!'' Fanel eases up a bit looking with an uncertain expression ''If you say so man, i just want to get out, i don't like being in a place i can't fly out of''
The cutter got fairly deep as he says he's about to extract it.
With a swift pull he yanks out a chunk that and swiftly grabs it from the cutter and puts it in his inner pocket, ''mission accomplished!'' as he turns the cutter off a sound can be heard from further below the cave ''Clack, Clack! CLack! CLAck! CLACk! CLACK!'' the group shines a lantern in the direction of the sound as a creature with chubby legs a fat torso no neck and a huge mouth is approaching them snapping its jaws shut producing the ''Clack'' sound.
The pack starts moving away from the freakish creature as it lets out an ear-piercing scream shaking the entire cave stunning the group in pain as they try to block their ears.
Fanel looks up the path they came as light is being blocked my a lot of movement he can't make out, its horde of smaller versions of the creatures! all snapping their jaws.
''WE'RE TRAPPED!'' as he yells with the scream still going on Anuk generates earplug sized rocks and puts them in his ears.
He gets up and generates a blade of jagged rock, coats it in heat tossing it to the screaming monster. it strikes the creatures mouth as it falls backwards and the blade goes down its throat silencing it.
With the scream halted the group gets up and they grab their weapons strapped to their belts, 2 of the flyers start clearing out the creatures with a mace & axe. Anuk jumps up to Fanel holding out his sword touches it as he tells him to aim his sword towards the group. He does as instructed and Anuk channels energy into the blade as he lets it build up in the blade making it glow brighter as it gathers more. ''Here goes!'' Anuk yells as he tells the 2 front liners to step back, with 1 push to the horde stumbling them backwards, Fanel aims his sword at the swarm of creatures as a flash happens and his blade extends at high speed slashing all creatures in its path.
Fanel drops the sword due to its increased weight. With most of the horde cleared out they start smashing through the remaining creatures stepping over them as Anuk grabs one of the corpses to bring to the academy. The flight students bash and crush their way through the weakened hive as some of them land a bite on Anuk's shoulder.
He yelps in pain as life essence shoots out, ''SHIT'' Fanel lets out as he puts his pocket dagger at the jaw split and slices the mouth corner open forcing it to let go. ''COME ON!'' he yells at Anuk. grabbing his collar. as they reach the outside, the 4 collapse in the late afternoon sunshine with a purple glow in the sky. Laying there for a bit letting their energy recover.
Anuk gets up after a bit and checks on everyone to see if they took any damage, everyone took bites for sure, the 2 front liners had it the worst, but they seem okay besides the marks, they didn't get through the skin unlike Anuk's shoulder. Fanel rips his hoodie's hood off and wraps it around Anuk's shoulder tightly to stop the leaking. He suggests to get back home, a 5 minute flight is now a 15 minute flight due to their injuries.
They take off and fly for the school, arriving back to the training field they were hours prior Mr. Enor comes running and asks if everyone is alright and if the sample was secure.
Anuk tosses the corpse of the creature he dragged along in front of Enor pulls the sample out of his inner pocket from his coat. Enor's eyes light up as he gently takes it from Anuk and sticks it in his pocket. ''Lets get you to Milia! You historians have earned a fixer up after your bravery! and what exactly did you want with the lifeless shell of that creature, Anuk?''
He looks at Enor and says ''For examination'' as he picks up the creatures corpse puts it under his arm and staggers after Enor.
