Serah gave Dylan an encouraging nod. She did notice it seemed to affect him less. Or she was just weak and he was able to tolerate the pain better. But in the end, he was on the ground, the same as her. She was right by Shilga, helping Dylan back to their little space setting him down. "You did great!" She gazed over to Shilga, seeing the panic in her eyes. She knew this would be hard for her, but she had full faith. Out of everyone she knew, Dylan and her were the two strongest people she knew.

She stood up and gave Shilga a hug before holding her at arms length. "Both Dylan and I have gone through this. You can do it. We have full faith in you. Be strong. We'll be right here to pick you up. Do not be afraid." She smiled at her and then looked to Dylan.

Dylan didn't argue. He just let it happen and tried to put hardly any weight on Shilga as she dragged him to where Serah was. Once he was on the ground, he managed to get his breathing back and rubbed his chest a bit. "I will be, thank you." He looked up at her. "You got this, Shilga. We are here for you."

He turned his head toward Serah and then Shilga again, nodding at her, confirming she would do it and they had faith in her, like she did them.

Shilga was physically shaking as her friends kept pushing her and pushing her, or so she felt. Eyes were on her and her face was getting all wet with tears, and the stress was getting to her. It looked like she was just going to break down and wail like a child as she bit her lip until it bled. Even though they said not to be afraid, it was too late...she saw the pain that her friends went through, and that made her unable to go through with it. She had a hand on her chest, her heart was beating so fast. That hand held onto her jacket tightly as she could not move, until her feet was able to drag the body to the place where the mana would be there. She kept shaking as the machine started although there seemed like a bit of a hesitation. When it started, Shilga's body tensed...trying hard to prepare for the pain. She would never be prepared for the pain, and the voices that would hurt her ears. After about ten seconds of being there, her back, legs, and neck would suddenly burst into flames. It looked like real flames but it did not destroy her clothes nor burn any skin.

But to Shilga it felt like what had happened back in middle school, her screams were not heard as some sort of wind force was created, acting like swords as they went through her and around her, and acted as if it was slicing her. But instead of blood, it was some sort of white and dark source that was coming out. Flames and Wind hurt, she was crying so loudly that in no time, she would lose her voice. She wanted this to stop, she wanted someone to give her mercy! Every bit of water came out of her face, ever bit of voice exited out of her, her vocal chords had shut down as she did it and the recurring thoughts of wanting to die and just lay there had become stronger in her mind.

What had felt like hours upon hours, was only a mere two and a half minutes before it was done. She felt down on the floor with a mighty thud not moving, her eyes slightly open and her face still wet. She had passed out from the pain and her face and body turned very hot from the 'make-believe' flames.

The moment it was over, Serah was by her side. Even though she knew the pain would be over soon, having experienced it for herself, she knew this was no cakewalk. She went over to Shilga and put her head in her lap, crooning over her and rocking back and forth, running her fingers through Shilga's hair. She was sweating from the experience but Serah didn't care. She just hoped the pain would pass as quick as it had come for her. Giving Shilga a few moments respite, she picked her up with a grunt of effort and hauled her over there spot before setting her back down. "How you feeling?"

Dylan watched, knowing Shilga would be fine. Serah came out of it and so did he, so he was certain Shilga would, too. He stood after Shilga was done and walked over behind Serah, doing the same for her like she did for him. "You did good." He said, helping Serah with getting to the side lines.

In all honestly, she was hoping that she could be left alone. Her mind was going between consciousness and unconsciousness so her body was not moving much. She felt massive pain in the back and it didn't feel like it was going away anytime soon. Tears were still falling from her face as she was laid to rest slightly as she closed her eyes, trying to daydream for a bit. She was trying to find a happy place, despite the pain on her back and legs forcing her to stay in reality.

The other 9 looked quite reluctant to go. But they went all the same. Only two others made as much fuss as the three friends did. Nico was quick to aid whoever needed it most. Afterwards he came over to Shilga and put a hand on her back. "I've developed something rather new after seeing you early that seemed to work rather well." He mumbled a few things underneath his breath and Shilga would find her back feeling better. LIt would feel like a cold waterfall running down her body and restoring her fatigue. "After I thought about it and came to the source of the pain after watching you, it all clicked together. It's a temporary ward that should only activate upon your back flaring up like that." He gave them a smile and headed towards the front. He gave another 30 minutes for everyone to recuperate nicely. Once everyone was good and standing he clapped his hands together to get everyone's attention. "Now we shall go outside and see what everyone is capable of."

Nico lead them out past the courtyard and down some stairs to a training field. It was a giant circle 80 yards around. In the middle Nico summoned some training dummies. For the next few days you will all be here as much you can take it, drawing upon your inner selves. Magic is used through understanding. You can only use it once you understand it and allow the mana to flow freely through your body. This is where I leave you. I will occasionally be watching to see what each of you can do. Once I feel as if you all have learned as much as you can, I will begin individual and group training sessions to help you unlock your full potential." He vanished and left the group to it.

When Dylan was better he stood up. Of course he watched the others though. When Nico got their attention, he listened and followed him to the training field. Though he did walk behind Serah and Shilga.

He then looked around at the training dummies, while listening in. We have to understand it first then we can use it. He really wanted to know what kind of magic he could use, but it was in due time. Of course he was interested to know what Serah and Shilga's were, too.

Thankfully the pain and fatigue went away quickly, but her enthusiasm for this kind of stopped. She now just wanted to go to her room and lay down...or just listen to the music in her iPhone. Her eyes were blank as she got up, rubbing her shoulders as if trying to comfort herself. So now lead to the place, they were to test the powers. And right now she really did not want to test the magic, she in all honestly wanted a break or else she would get too anxious that she'll just break down and cry....she was getting close to it though. "You...go first, I want a break."

Serah panted with effort. For hours she had been trying to bring forth the well of mana inside her to use magic. She reached deep inside of herself, pulling out the ebb of energy she now felt inside. Every time she could only but scratch the surface. She had an idea as of why too. Nico explained emotions were the key to magic, but Serah didn't have any. The only emotion she ever felt was perseverance. The ability to move forward and get stronger. She knelt down on one knee to catch a breath. She would not stop for too long though. She would get back up and continue trying, no matter the cost. She looked around, she had ignored Dylan and Shilga to try and take out all distractions. But she wanted to see if they were having any better luck than her.

Dylan wasn't too sure about this right now. He had to understand it when he didn't even know how to control it. He had nodded toward Shilga, letting her rest up and letting her have time for herself. He then turned his attention to Serah who seemed to be concentrating.

He then closed his eyes and took deep breaths. For one, relaxing and well doing what they were told to do.

Shilga stared at the two as they were practicing their magic. She just wanted to sit there and let herself calm down as she would not be a happy person if not allowed to rest. She did, however, look at her hand and wondered what magic she had, her hand ended up conjuring some wind around her fingertips which she was shocked but not enough to freak out. She ended up playing with the air magic a little bit, creating a ball shape and playing it like a little child playing with a tiny ball, but this ball had more life, flying around like crazy before being bumped up like a balloon by the palm of her hand. She ended up chuckling as she kept playing with it, testing the potential she had for now anyways.

Covered in a sheen of sweat, the liquid dripping from her bangs onto the dry ground, leaving marks where there was once nothing. She was exhausted. She just wanted to sit down and rest. But for the first time ever in a long time, she felt very......frustrated. Shilga was over by herself, easily playing with her own magic. In fact, just about everyone besides her and Dylan were able to use their magic to some extent. A boy of about 16 was off playing with fire. Another seemed to eb able to bend the earth to his will. There was a smaller girl of about 14 who seemed to be able to conjure up small creatures from who knows where. It was aggravating. Why was she unable to use her magic?

From the corner, she did notice Nico watching them. His eyes scoured the courtyard, seeing what each of them was capable of doing. He wanted to see who was capable of doing what, what each persons abilities were, and how strong they were individually.

Dylan did get a bit frustrated. He couldn't go back now. He made it this far and with Serah and Shilga. There was no way he was leaving this place. Other students got it faster than him and well he glanced toward Serah and Shilga. He saw Shilga had gotten it. Wind. He then chuckled lightly, trying to focus now on what he would be able to control. Hell in his mind, he wanted to master them all, but he was only an apprentice and there is always a beginning.

He closed his eyes one more time and relaxed. Nico said he was watching, so that probably made the nervousness even worse. Why he could have done everything else, but this? As he finally relaxed, ice crystals began to form at his finger tips. The frost began to go up his hands, which made a cool sensation go up his arms. When he looked down to see his hand whiter than he was, his mouth gaped just slightly. His fingers rolled to touch his palm and it was real. Slightly cold, but bearable. After a couple seconds, it was nothing. When his fingers folded out quickly, he produced a small ice crystal from his palm. "Ice... Coldness in my heart..." He mumbled, turning over his hands. [If that was too much, let me know and I will backtrack]
