Leah watched interestingly at Heather’s demonstration. “Ah, I feel it,” she remarked to herself as she felt the microclimate of the room change, dropping in temperature to where everyone could see the air he or she exhaled. “Very well controlled Miss Morris. Climate control is one of the more difficult aspects of Air manipulation. You seem to have quite a good grasp on it already. To control the weather and climate, one must have control of the available gases and be able to speed up the particles to increase temperature or slow the particles to drop the temperature. As you felt it yourself, Miss Morris, such demonstrations leeches much of one’s strength. Again, in this class we will work on keeping up your strength, for you need to have plenty in reserve for air manipulation. As Air manipulators we have a tendency to have power spikes, short periods where we used enormous amounts of energy for super speed or affect the weather on a larger scale. Thus from everyone’s demonstrations, I deduce that we need to learn how to ration our energy, so we have plenty in reserve to call upon, especially in emergencies. Your second demonstration was well coordinated and appropriately measured for the amount of energy you had left. It was a display of understanding your limits yet using it for a useful technique.”

“Everyone’s demonstration was wonderful, I hope each of you have learned a little more about yourself and what you need to focus on in this class.” That was when Leah noticed something was not right, she had missed something, no she had felt it but had not paid much heed to it. Looking over to Jin, she said softly, “Mr. Hoshorru, please stay after class for a quick discussion about a demonstration I missed. Now everyone will have fifteen minutes to rest before we start our training session in speed. You need not return to your seats. We will be working on the mat and in pairs. A quick clue for what we will do is: Those skilled with air, are quickest on their feet, used in a combination, even the masters in these ancient arts, can one defeat. Now quick break to freshen up and be back in fifteen......wait!” Leah rechecked her watch, "Looks like the lunch bell will be tolling soon so let us pick up tomorrow with training. Farewell everyone enjoy your lunch and maybe I will see you later for electives."


((Hee Meph-y XD We look forward to your return!!))

((Don't worry Mr. E, we love your exasperating self too much to inflict any sort of pain.....unless I pinch those CHEEKY cheeks of yours!!))

Leah waved goodbye to her students as they filed out of the classroom. Turning she walked towards the open window that was near where Jin sat. Still peering outside she asked him, “How do you feel Mr. Hoshorru?” Leah surveyed the muddy mess outside in contrast to the dry building. She wanted to know what had gone on outside that left Jin in a weakened state and for her to feel an enormous air shield coming from outside, when only student demonstrations were occurring inside.

“I see. Shields can be a tricky technique, very useful, but draining when you are unsure of how much power to exert. Trust your instincts, as I have mentioned, Air manipulators can anticipate obstacles because we are sensitive to the waves of air that surround us. Disturbances in normal airwaves and vibrations catch our attention and through it we can judge the force and speed of objects. That is also, why Air manipulators are usually sensitive to loud music or those with high bass qualities. That is a good skill to hone on for you advancement test.” Leah turned away from the window where students could be seen trekking their way through the mud to the food stalls. If one didn’t notice the fact that the building was completely dry, then they would think that is had just rained heavily during class. “Well, I’m sorry I missed the event, but thank you for protecting the school. Please stay until you are feeling better. Zephrine?” Leah called out and the parrot swooped down from an outside tree and landed on her shoulder. His feathers were a little damp.
