Introductions....

And since then it has been history. Back to the present, at the orientation program, it was now time for the freshers to introduce themselves and their skills. All the while there were two freshers sitting beside me. I assumed that they were both friendly as they exchanged greetings with me at the start of the event. I hoped I would find friends among the freshers. Everyone seemed to have more knowledge about the world of skills than I did

I knew that that everyone in the building except a few had skills, but I couldn't help but wonder what type of skills they would have.

My skills so far was speed and discernment and I wondered what other skills was out there. Just as we came in, I heard someone talk to his friend about the legendary Russell. According to the books, he was the first human to have the skill of mind manipulation. He worked in the secret service of Johateim and mastered his skill thus getting to the highest rank - platinum - before retirement. He could individually defeat enemy armies with mind manipulation. 8 years ago, he just disappeared. Rumors have it that his powers began to wane and he decided to go into seclusion.

"All freshers stand up," a well-built aged man ordered as he got to the microphone. From the look of things, it was clear that he was a tutor here.

"Beginning from the first row, take turns to introduce yourselves".

And so the introductions began. I could here the excitement in the voices of those who introduced themselves. For about the quarter of an hour, people kept talking and it seemed like it would not get to my turn. As I began to doze off, an angelic voice jerked me back to liveliness - and the same could be said of everyone else in the hall.

"My name is Treasure Jakes, I'm sixteen years old and I have a skill of liquid control"....
