Next we explain our powers in our squad.
"I have super speed aided by wind, I can grow vines very fast. Superhuman durability, wind magic, and sometimes I feel like I have anime protagonist levels of luck." I explain nervously.
"I have control over all 8 standard elements. Super speed, super strength, and super durability." Tina says calmly.
"I have light magic and luck. Luck I just yell wishes at." Jimmy says happily.
So Jimmy is a trans man for sure based on his voice.
"I am superhuman in all physical ways. Wind magic. And powers in a group I call action hero magic." Curran says calmly.
"Action hero?" Cpt.Turner asks, confused and annoyed.
"I can slow time around me, amplify my guns, and turn invisible." Curran says calmly.
"I sense there's others." Cpt.Turner says, inquisitive.
"They're too weak or can't be triggered on command. So I don't mention them." Curran says, embarrassed.
"Ah gotcha. I am a gun mage like Curran with superhuman speed and durability." Cpt.Turner says warmly.
"I am a gun mage as well. No other superhuman abilities." West says, feeling a bit disappointed in himself when compared to everyone else.
"That's okay. Do well, and we'll get you durability at least with some proper super soldier pills." Cpt.Turner says happily.
"We really have those?" West says, shocked.
"Yeah, that's how we stay ahead of everyone else as America." Cpt.Turner says happily.
Cpt.Turner walks us over to the punching bags.
"Everyone, please hit a punching bag with your most destructive attack. Please don't feel bad if you don't destroy the bag or if you do. It's good if you destroy the bag, but don't be sad about it. No guns, by the way. Magic and physical only." he says warmly.
Curran and West sigh, annoyed and sad.
"I'm gonna fail." West says sadly.
Cpt.Turner pats his shoulder sympathetically.
"It's fine. You'll show off when you get a gun." he says warmly.
"Damn straight. I can destroy a building with the right gun." West says proudly, quickly regaining his confidence.
"Same brother, same feeling there. Don't worry, there's a gun test at the end." Cpt.Turner says happily.
"Alright, Ruben, you first." Cpt.Turner says warmly.
I nod and approach the punching bag nearest me. I take a deep breath, and yell with loud anger as I blast the bag with a wind blade. It nearly cuts it clean in half.
"Good job, Ruben. B rating." Cpt.Turner says warmly. "Scavo, you're next."
Scavo approaches another bag. And just swings a right haymaker into it that bursts into flames upon contact with the bag. He sighs, annoyed.
"That's a unreliable perk." he says.
He left a good, two inch deep dent with burn marks and a burning flame.
"Good enough. C+." Cpt.Turner says happily. "Jurner, your turn."
Jimmy approaches a bag and shouts "I wish for a A+! Holy Lord Beam of Death!
He poses like a certain anime martial artist, and fires a light beam out of both palms. It burns a three inch wide clear through it after 10 seconds of the attack. He finishes, and seems exhausted. He's sweating even.
"A+ Jimmy." Cpt.Turner says warmly, and impressed. "West, you're up. Just get it over with."
"Sir, yes sir." Jimmy groans sadly.
He just throws a haymaker and it just swings back and forth.
"D, you pass. Just come back. Tina, your turn." Cpt.Turner says warmly.
Tina approaches it and does two finger guns at the Punching bag. Then she fires a beam of light and a fire beam, one from each hand. And makes the punching bag explode into bits. She poses with her hands on her hips with a big grin.
"Congrats, S ranking. Top of the class in destruction already." Cpt.Turner says happily.
After this, we are onto the platforming test next. I'm excited. I should ace this.
