As I look over at the door, it closes right on Zach's face.  I think it hit his nose a bit.  I chuckle a bit at the thought.

-I'm guessing this guy is the main teacher, or principal even.-

I turn around to look at him.  He has white hair despite looking very young, in his late 20's or something.  He has a thin build but if you look closely you can definitely see the muscles.  At first glance he would definitely look weak. 

But he's not.

"Kid, why did you never attack?"  He asks looking a bit moody.

-You know im actually older than you...-

"Well sir, I can't control my power yet."  I respond.

-in this world you have to be respectful-

He raises his eyebrow.  "Do you have a certain spell you just can't control?  I don't sense a beast spirit in you..."  He says as he walks over to the right motioning me to follow.

"No, it's everything I can't control.  I haven't had enough time yet to control it."  I say as he taps the wall.

-I feel like I can trust him, but I'm not going to tell them everything yet.-

A door opens in front of him and we both walk into the room.  The room is a training room, there are many dummies scattered across it, some punching bags, moving platforms with swinging logs, and a big open field for battling in the middle of it.

-I'm guessing this isn't going to be a friendly chat-

"Since your power wasn't shown in that battle, and your aura shows your not like the others, I want to see exactly how strong you are."  He leans against a nearby wall. 

"No holding back."  He states.  I look him over and check his aura. 

-I learned from my past life how to tell when someone has ulterior motives, and the aura would also show me.  This guy, he is safe.-

I take a deep breath an make sure my mana flow is clear. I look around the room. To the left of me there is an area with lots of different dummies in it.

-that'll work-

"Ok, but one thing. This is something I haven't tested out yet." I turn towards ceiling teacher. "I don't know what's going to happen if I use this." I warn him.

He nods. You can see the determination in his eyes. It's probably in mine too.

I walk towards the dummies. I gather me mana into my hands. "Igneous breath."  I say putting mana into my words.

My mother taught me whenever using spells you must say the words with your mana or it won't be as powerful.

I feel my hands start to get warm.  Not hot, jut pleasantly warm.  I put them out in front of me as if I was about to push someone.  I feel the mana continue to flow from my body to my hands. 

-I know what to do-

I wait until all the mana from my body is in my hands.  My vision turns orange, as if im looking at everything through tinted glasses.

This doesn't surprise me.

I close my eyes and imagine the mana forming into a ball.  I feel my mana start to swirl in front of me. 

I open my eyes.  "Release." 

Immediately as these words leave my mouth the mana swirling in front of me picks up speed creating a giant spinning vortex of fire.  It's larger that that of the dragon's.  My vision is still tinted orange, and I don't feel like myself. 

"Launch."  A voice that is not my own, but still came out of my mouth says.  The fireball propels itself forward at breakneck speeds and collides with the wall, hitting every dummy in the process.  As it hits the wall i feel something crash into my left side.

I close my eyes at the impact and feel my back hit the floor.

Then the whole floor starts to shake beneath me.  There is a loud sizzling sound and the room temperature increases what feels like hundreds of degrees.

I slowly open my eyes.  It's back to my normal, non orange, view.  The ceiling teacher is hovering above me and is gaping at the direction i shot my fireball. 

"Umm... Did it work?"  I ask.  I noticed that he surrounded us with a water shield.  He must have tackled me to the floor then put a shield around us. 

He looks down at me then releases the shield.  He stands up and looks to our left. 

"See for yourself child."  He states not looking back at me.  I follow his gaze and feel my mouth also drop.

-t-this is 10 times more powerful than the dragon's!!!-

There is a giant hole in the whole building, the fireball created a review in its tracks, burned everything that came in a 1/4 mile radius, and went on for many miles. 

I look down at my hands.  Not even a slight burn mark.  But, there is something else.  I touch my wrist, it's cold and scaled.  It's a slight red color, like the dragon's.  As I hold my arm up to get a better view of it they disappear.

I lower my arm again.  The view of destruction is still in front of me. 

-annndddd that power is going away for awhile-

I feel my ring grow warm.  I look down and tap it with my thumb. 

Level- 35

I mentally face palm myself. 

-just when I thought I was getting too powerful i increase 2 more levels.  Im not even sure what to think of myself anymore.-

"HEY!!! WHATS GOING ON OVER HERE!?!?" I hear a very angry voice yell from behind me.  Both me and ceiling teacher turn around. 

One of the teachers that was attacking us before opens the door that I was supposed to have gone in.  As he walks over to us his jaw drops too. 

He looks over at me.  "D-did this kid do this? No... H-he couldn't have..."  The guy says and backs away looking scared.

-ah well... I guess I understand why someone would be scared of me.  I mean, I did just kinda blow up a whole building.  And forest.-

"Actually the kid shared some of his mana with me and i combined it with mine.  Seems we went a bit overboard."  Ceiling teacher says with a grin.  I look over at him

He places a finger on his lips and winks at me.

-he's... Covering for me?-

The other teacher looks between us an sighs.  "You don't ju-  sigh.... Don't do it again."  He says and walks away.  Now it's my turn for my jaw to drop again.

"Did he actually buy that?" I whisper to
Ceiling teacher.  He chuckles.  "Yeah the people I hired for testing.... Well... They aren't hired for their brains."  I giggle a bit.

"Oh, how rude of me! I didn't introduce myself!"  Im Colin Shockley.  What is yours kid?"  He says holding his hand out for me.

-I can trust him.-

I grab his hand.  "Sam.  Sam Silverman."
