26 Earth

Jungkook was getting adjusted as Namjoon explained all the different equipment in the Craft Workshop to Jungkook. Namjoon then left him in the care of the others, mainly Hoseok, and went to Hitman Bang's office. He knocked on the door before entering.

"Bang Pd-nim?"

Hitman Bang looked up from his desk and waved his hand, telling Namjoon to come in. Namjoon walked in and sat down on one of the seats. Hitman Bang looked at Namjoon seriously.

"So, little Jungkook is now going to be training with you all. As I'm sure you have found out already, he is quite a shy young boy and is hesitant to using his powers in front of others. This is a clear weakness that we will need to deal with for him to progress as an Adept."

Namjoon nodded. It was extremely clear that this would need to be something that they dealt with early on. Hitman Bang continued.

"I have some training I have prepared for Jungkook individually, but that won't be for a while. Until then, I want you and the others to invest your time into building and growing his confidence. Once you see his power and realize the potential behind it, you will understand why so many Academies fought for him. I believe he will be a key part of the team if you can get him to open up."

Namjoon nodded his head again. A key part of the team? He must be truly powerful for Hitman Bang to say that about him. Namjoon took Hitman Bang's words seriously.

"Yes, Bang Pd-nim. I will do what I can to help him. Not just for the team, but also just because I want to see him grow. You don't need to worry about him, sir."

Hitman Bang smiled. He admired Namjoon's heart and ability to care for others, he made a good leader.

"Very well, take the boys out to the field, see if you can get him to show his stuff."

Namjoon nodded. He stood up and bowed before walking out of the room. Hitman Bang smiled as he picked up a folder and flipped through it.

"He really does have it in him to be the core piece of the puzzle. Hopefully Namjoonie can bring it out of him."

He then put the folder down as he grabbed to other similar folders and placed them next to each other. Hitman Bang went deep into thought as he looked over the two folders

"Now, what to do with you two."

Outside on one of the practice fields, Namjoon had brought all the others out. Hoseok was stretching, glad to be outside. Yoongi was the opposite, clearly not happy with being out in the sun. Hyosang yawned as he followed behind Hoseok. Jungkook followed the group, not as nervous as he found that all the hyungs here were all nice, but he was still shy and quiet.

Namjoon stopped walking and turned around.

"So, this is going to be pretty simple. To help Jungkook out, we are going to break the ice. We're going to show him out abilities so that he can see what kind of Adepts we all are, and then he will show us what he can do, and we can start implementing his abilities into the team."

Jungkook froze hearing that he would need to show his powers to everyone. Namjoon smiled at Jungkook.

"There is no need to feel nervous, we all have your back. We'll support you with this."

The others all game reassuring smiles and nods to Jungkook. Even Yoongi gave Jungkook a nod. Feeling encouraged by his hyungs, Jungkook did his best to muster up all the courage he had as he nodded as well.

Namjoon clapped his hands together.

"Great. Well, you have already seen my ability. I am a Lightning user, an Underground Magic-Channeller and Power Designer. Hoseok, show him what you got."

Hoseok smiled as he stepped forward.

"Unlike the others, I'm not Magic-Channeller. I'm an Underground Battle Mage. And I'm a Wind user."

Hoseok pulled the his two blades out from behind his back. He crouched low and wind began to gather around him. He then jumped high into the air. Jungkook looked up in awe. Hoseok then began to slash around him, dancing through the air. Powerful bursts of air shot out from his twin blades. Although he was high up, Jungkook could feel the pressure from the bursts.

Hoseok then came down and landed gracefully. He put his blades away and came back to the group with a smile.

"Not bad, right?"

Jungkook nodded excitedly. He was in awe of Hoseok. He didn't expect such power to come from someone so friendly and nice. Namjoon nodded at Hyosang who nodded back. He chanted quickly as his aura grew around him forming a large wolf. The wolf then sprinted off at an incredible speed before slamming into a tree, pushing it out from its roots completely.

"I'm an Underground Magic-Channeller. My power is wolf based."

Jungkook was frightened at first when he saw the large wolf, and then he was in awe at the pure might of the Wolf as it ripped a tree out from the ground. He then looked over to Yoongi expectantly. Yoongi sighed as he stepped forward.

"Underground Magic-Channeller and Power Designer. Fire."

He then walked to a spot on the field and took out a little device, throwing it casually on the ground and walked back to the group. Jungkook looked confused and turned to ask the others what he was doing, but then realized that the others had run off and were hiding behind a tree. Jungkook continued looking lost as he turned to face Yoongi who was walking back to him and chanting quickly. Yoongi then locked eyes with Jungkook as he clicked his fingers.

There was suddenly a large and powerful explosion where the small device was. Jungkook was completely shook by the size and sheer power of the explosion. Eventually the fire died down, but Jungkook continued staring at where the explosion occurred. He realized that he was in the midst of some powerful Adepts. Namjoon and the others came out from behind the tree. Hyosang was breathing heavily.

"Do you just carry those things around with you? Those things are ridiculously dangerous."

Yoongi just shrugged nonchalantly. Namjoon out his hand on Jungkook's shoulder.

"So that's what we can do. I know that it can seem daunting, but believe in your ability. Go and show us what you can do. We're supporting you."

The others all nodded in agreement. Hoseok made a fist.

"Fighting!"

Jungkook saw the sincerity in their eyes. He resolved himself to do what he could. He nodded and walked out on the field. He was still nervous, but he wanted to be an Adept. He wanted to join these amazing hyungs. He wanted to grow and become stronger. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes to calm himself.

Namjoon and the others felt energy begin to surge around Jungkook. The ground began to vibrate slightly beneath them. Everyone looked over to Jungkook to see what was going to happen. Jungkook began chanting. Spirit Callers used the Energy Flux and relied on Word's to call out their power, just like Magic-Channellers, but they also had the Spirit Realm they needed to tap into.

After connecting to the correct frequency, connecting you to the Spirit Realm, you reached the first stage of Spirit Calling called Spirit Alignment.

Even if you had your Energy Flux flowing properly and enabled the right usage of Word's, the Calling would still fail if you couldn't reach the right level of Spirit Alignment.

Although Spirit Alignment could be learnt to a degree, most Spirit Callers were born with a natural affinity. Learning and developing it was a much harder path to walk. Buthe reaching Spirit Alignment was only the first step.

By connecting with the Spirit Realm, Spirit Caller's were able to tap into the Spirit Essence of a creature or Spirit.

A Spirit's Essence was what Spirit Callers needed to merge with to connect with the Elemental Spirit's and Soul Creatures that Spirit Caller's used to battle. By connecting with the Spirit Essence, you could summon that Spirit or Soul Creatures to thexplode world to fight with and for you. As long as you stayed connected with the Spirit's Essence, you could keep the Spirit or Soul Creature in this Realm.

What looked like little green lights danced around Jungkook before entering the ground. Then what looked like little Rock creatures came out of the ground. They all hopped around Jungkook excitedly. Then two of the strange little Rock creatures jumped at Jungkook. One landed on his shoulder and the other seemed to enter him, as if he absorbed it. Jungkook looked at the one on the ground and nodded at it as it went back into the ground. Jungkook then looked at the others who were a long way off. Suddenly, Jungkook disappeared. The others were all shocked, but we're even more shocked a second later when he reappeared right in front of them. Then, while chanting, he pushed his palms into the ground. The ground underneath the boys suddenly shot up. Underneath them, the ground seemed to have raised itself up, more earth and rock growing underneath them at a rapid rate. It then came to a stop and they were know on the same level as some of the trees.

Jungkook stood up as he looked at the others who were all shocked. They were all standing on this tiny mountain that wasn't here before and they were all amazed. The little rock creature on his shoulder seemed to wave at the others. Jungkook scratched his head nervously.

"I am, um, a Spirit Caller. And I am an Earth element user."
