Next Round Of Testing

The rest of the morning was boring for Alex, except when Clark was jolted awake with smelling salts. He had made a fuss about suddenly being surrounded by strange people in a strange place.

Alex had to help calm him down and explain where and why they were where they were. In the end, Clark accepted, although reluctantly, to get tested on by the strange scientists.

In the meantime, they had already brought Phoenix to another room, where she was also getting tested. Surprisingly, she had made decent progress in mana pool size and the intensity of her controlled flames.

This made her happy, as she always felt she was holding Alexander back on this side of the veil. Hearing that she had advanced by leaps and bounds made her feel she could finally be helpful to him if another situation arose.

Every time they had an incident, up to now, she had been assigned almost a supportive role. She was tired of being at the back.
