Parmida sighed before leaning back. "Yeah, but once we're out of the city, how are we to know just where our city is? How are we to know we would be accepted into the city? I'm afraid..." she trailed off, gulped, and finished, "I'm afraid that we'd been seen as trespassers and killed on sight if we tried to enter any of the other cities..."

"Well it'd be just as bad if we tried to visit now," Selma pointed out. "But once we're determinded to belong to one element or another, I'm sure they'll let the city in question know, so they'll be expecting us."

Niki shrugged. "I'm sure they've got it worked out, somehow. Maybe they give us a letter or something to give to someone...?"

Tali grimaced. "I don't know. Sending new students out just seems risky. Maybe they send someone to collect us, like peices of baggage." Tali shifted on his feet still standing. "You think the Air elementals could fly and pick their kids up? That would really be something to see."

Niki's face lit up. "That would be cool, Tali! But what about the others? They'd all have to walk..." Surely something was worked out? Tali's idea made sense. After all, how where they to know how to get to the cities??

"Maybe that's something secret that we're told, only after we're tested..." Selma suggested softly.

Parmida shuddered slightly. "See the Air elementals fly? Sure. Be one of those to be picked up? Rather not..." Her eyes became slightly unfocused for a moment. She then blinked and looked around the room. "Not to mentain, anyone have any guesses as to which of us will be which element?"

Niki nodded at Selma. "Probably. But it's fun to try and guess..."
She then chuckled at Parmida's comment, then pondered. "I dunno... I like Air. The wind... not that we get much of that in the city... stupid tall walls..."

Tali brightened. "I hope I'm a Water Elemental. I got this book all about under water plants and animals and it's really cool! Did you know they found a fish that had a light growing out of it's head? And there are these huge turtles that live for hundreds of years. Plus, just think of what you could do with water. Anything really." He turned to Niki, "I could see you as a wind elemental. And....Selma... Maybe Earth? Vincent, " Tali flushed slightly, just for a moment, remembering that not so long ago humiliation when he had actually *hugged* his roommate. "I would guess air...Or maybe fire. Parmida...I would guess Air or Earth...Maybe."

Selma shrugged. "I have no idea what I'll be really." She dragged her feet back and forth on the floor. "Sometimes I worry if I'll be colorless..."

Niki chuckled. "Well, after Parmida's reaction to the thought of being picked up by a flying Air elemental, I would strike that out. But," she turned to Parmida, "I could see you as an Earth."
"Selma seems like a Water elemental... Vincent.. I don't know. Air sounds like a possibility, maybe fire..."
Niki turned back to Tali. "I could definately see you as a Water elemental... Though not Manelin!" She grinned.

Parmida shivered at Tali's suggestions for her. "I'm afraid of heights. I don't think I'll be Air. Earth more likely. Perhaps Water... I can even distantly see Fire..." She couldn't help but grin at Niki's statement about Manelin. "Manelin most surely would not be Water. He's more likely to be Fire..." She looked at the others, and spoke to herself. "I was thinking Selma would be Air, Tali Water, and Niki also Air... Vincent... I don't know... Air? That or Fire, with the temper he has..."

Tali barely heard Selma's second comment. Quickly he crossed the room and kneeled in front of her, hands on her knees. "You are *not* going to be colorless," the teen stated firmly catching her eyes and staring straight into them. "Got it? You are one of the better students in our class. Don't doubt yourself."

Semla laughed a little. "Well you guys all have a different opinion as to what you think I'll be. I thought that Tali would be water or air....Niki fire....Parmida....earth....Vincent air, maybe? I wish I knew him better.."
Edit: She looked up at Tali and gave him a grateful smile, before leaning forward and giving him a gentle hug. "Thanks Tali," she said softly.

Niki blinked at Tali. "I wonder... would it actually be a bad thing to be colorless? Sure, Elementals are stronger. So everyone says. But the colorless don't have to fight all the time..." She shrugged. "Not that I'm volunteering to be colorless or anything like that..."
