"Well, it doesn't seem like you're the only one that doesn't know his own class."

"I'm sure we'll get to know the others soon enough," Ghaste said.

Angel stood on her own, looking around the hall and feeling distinctly awkward. She had never really liked being in crowds, and not knowing anyone made it all the worse. To top it off, the tenseness in her muscles was making her wings flutter reflexively under her jacket.
Cool it, Angel, she thought to herself, No need to get so worked up. So, yeah, I'll just stand here and look like a complete idiot and eventually someone will notice me .... I hope ... it'll be okay ... just look natural, someone will talk to you .....

Lidnus looked around at the other people in the group. It was a very small group indeed, he counted less then ten. He noticed one girl off by herself, so he grabbed his best and his new friend by the arms and took them over by her. "Hello, my names Lidnus, I can cover things in fire. Nice to meet you. This is my good friend, Dissonance, and this is a cool guy i just met, Ghaste was it? So what's your name and what can you do?" He said with a wink and an excited smile.

Angel turned with surprise when the three boys came over. What do you? Someone actually noticed me.
"Hello, my names Lidnus, I can cover things in fire. Nice to meet you. This is my good friend, Dissonance, and this is a cool guy i just met, Ghaste was it? So what's your name and what can you do?" the youngest of them said, quite fast, finishing with a wink and a smile.
Angel smiled back. "I'm Angel," she said, "Um, and it's not exactly a power or anything ..." she continued, taking off her jacket and turning so they could see her wings.

"Holy crap...that's awesome. See cooler then mine." He said the later part under his breath. "So how did you find out about yours? I bet it was better then burning down most of your childhood home. How does it feel to fly? How high can you go...or how about how fast can you go? What is...I'm sorry I've never met anyone that could fly before and I've always wanted to. Feel free to ignore half my rant of questions there." Lidnus half blushed still looking at her intently for answers. He could tell she would fit in right away, a little shy but definitely someone he wanted to be his friend. In fact, He kind of liked her. "Hey could I possibly feel them?" He said with a shy tone in his voice sort of looking off into space.

Angel laughed and stretched out one wing towards him.
"I was born with oddly protrusive shoulder blades," she explained, "And when I hit puberty, they started growing into wings. I can go higher than any aeroplane ... as well as the wings I got some other avian traits to make flying easier, like lungs capable of dealing with the thinner air ... but I've never really tested how fast I can go.
"As for what it's like .... there's no way to describe it, unless you've been up there. It's like ... total freedom."

"I am so jealous, could you possibly handle a passenger? Not like I'm suggesting anything." Lidnus said in an obvious tone. "You know, like if we ever had to for a mission or something...or maybe not for a mission...like before we wold leave for mission since we have a few hours...you know general situations like that..." He looked at her blushing with a wide awkward smile with a hint of begging in his eyes.

Toxin shifted his gaze around the room, wondering who to talk to. As he turned, he noticed a girl revealing her wings, smiling secretly, he walked over. When he got there, he offered his hand, puffing out black gas, to one of the men talking to her.

Lidnus took the man's hand giving him a hearty handshake but covering his arm in flame as well which saved his arm from the intruding gas. "Hey now, that's not nice, I'm not sure what that stuff is but I'm sure you can save it for the baddies when they come around. Hi, I'm Lidnus, and I cover things in fire if you haven't noticed. I'm assuming that black stuff is your ability. What's it do? And what's your name? Oh this is Dissonance, Ghaste and Angel I believe?"

Toxin gasped as his gas lit on fire and as his arm got burnt, "Holy, you too, mine leaves less scars and pain, the gas you just lit up kills your nerves, so you cant use what it touches," he said with a half-grin. "Name's Toxin, nice to meet you."

Dissonance could only look down and hold his head in a joking kind of shame, "God, when you get riled up you can rant off like no tomorrow. And I swear it takes a death in the family to shut you up. But either way, you should know that using your powers against another Chaos member when not in the arena is strictly forbidden. So watch it." then turning to look over at Angel, "It's nice to meet you Angel, as Lindus said I'm Dissonance. Sound is my speciality." he bowed slightly to her.

Ghaste just grinned as the others messed around. Then, nodding to Angel, he spoke, "I'm Ghaste. I can take over others' bodies."

Toxin grinned,"And since when do you need your hand? It's not like you use it for anything."

"Perhaps for wielding my weapons, Hey I never caught your name...or what that black stuff was."

Not exactly pleased with the attitude of the newcomer Dissonance shot him a displeased glare. "Doesn't really matter what he needs it for, you know the protocal." in spite of his fun personality when it came down to rules and training Dissoncance was kind of a hard ass. Not taking anything of the sort very lightly. Then again that's what happens when you're raised the way he was.

"Sorry there, when it comes down to rules and training my friend here is kind of a hard ass." Turning back to Angel, blushing again, he asked again, "So how about that ride?"

Angel felt herself smiling, "I could probably handle a passenger. I'm stronger than I look."
She turned to Dissonance and Ghaste, "It's a pleasure to meet you both," then turned to Toxin, "And you."

"Awesome, I'd like to be the one to test that theory sometime, please I've always wanted to fly." He looked at Angel looking embarssed for the first time, that Dissonance had seen anyway. He he his best friend had probably figured out that he liked this girl, he hoped his friend would not mess it up like had had with some other females he'd become fond of.

"Sweet!" Lidnus said with an excited smile and jumped a little with enthusiasm. He hoped it could be before the mission but he didn't ask her for fear he would be imposingmore then he already had. Lidnus had never had a problem with fear or embarrassment for that matter. He's one of those people that would say smart ass remarks even while you were punching him in the stomach. But for some reason this girl could make him blush and fear opening his mouth for the first time in his life. He liked the feeling. He was known for being smooth with the ladies but it never seemed to get him anywhere, he was 19 and hadn't had a since girlfriend yet. Perhaps it was his utter lack of fear.

Angel found herself giggling as the young man jumped around enthusiastically. Noone had ever been this excited about her wings. Before she had just been ... well, a freak.

Dissonance just kind of sat in the background, not wanting to ruin it for Lindus. After being friends with someone as long as they had you begin to tell what they are thinking and feeling just by the tone of their voice. He could easily tell that this girl was different. This was already turning out to be quite the interesting group, and he couldn't help but wonder what other personalities they might find.

The man who had spoken before returned to the podium once again and began speaking. "The final test is complete, we have chosen our group for this mission. We needed members who would work well together. So we told you all you were accepted to see who would get along the best. You five in the back corner will be going on this mission. The rest of you can return to your classes or dormitories. You five step forward, you still have two hours to prepare before you must depart, use this time wise-." His voice stopped as his eyes fell upon his son and his best friend. The other masters looked at him and he knew it was too late to change his mind. He opened his mouth as is to speak but then retreated from the podium and out the door without a look at his son. Lidnus could tell it was really hard on him, but he was still mad he wouldn't talk to his own son. "I guess that solves our having to get to know everyone problem." Lidnus gave a worried glance to Dissonance to ensure the storming out of his father nadn't bothered his too much. "He slapped him on the back of his shoulder saying, "At least were still together on this, I'd have hate to have gone without you man, because we all know that if one of us had to go it would have been me." He winked at Dissonence with a hint of worry in his eye that even though his friend didn't see it, knowing him he would still be able to pick up on it.
