The young SeeD candidate smiled at Instructor Tilmitt she couldn't believe that Garden would take their students to such remote locations like the Deep Sea Research Facility. She adjusted her gloves and checked her magic "I'm ready Instructor Tilmitt." she said softly. Her Instructor nodded. "Remember Tsukai, I'm only your combat back up. You must solve the puzzle and gain the Guardian Force yourself that is part of the exam." She explained to the young girl as she made sure she had her Shinobou ready. Together they entered the abandoned laboratory. Tsukai gasped as she was met by bright blue lights swirling around a pillar in the center of the room. She looked to her Instructor and carefully stepped forwards as the lights appeared to stop. She sighed in relief as she had expected something bad to happen with her movement towards the pillar. She stepped forwards again this time not noticing that the lights where rotating again. Out of no where a strange looking monster appeared. "Shit" she cursed under her breath. She quickly lifted her fitsts and let her body shift into her fighting stance. "It's ok you are allowed two mistakes before your final grade is affected, just stay calm and concentrate." Intructor Tilmitt explained before lifting her Shinobou. Tsukai nodded and quickly cast Scan, she had never come across such a strange looking monster before so it seemed right to check on the beasts strengths and weaknesses. "A Grendel huh?" she pondered as she checked to see what elements it was susceptible to.
While she was trying to organise her magic her Instructor cast protect on her and explained her actions "Grendels are known for their nasty physical attacks Tsukai. Be careful." Tsukai digested her instructors advice and prepared to draw double from the monster. She remembered her brother explaining to her about the effects of double with your stats and how it let you cast two spells in a row. She smiled to herself as she managed to gain 6 copies from the monster. Suddenly without warning the monster lept forward and attacked her with it's tail blade. The protect spell that Instructor Tilmitt cast on Tsukai softened the blow but she still reeled backwards in pain. "Argh, Damn monster." she hissed before leaping fowards to have her revenge. She hit the monster with all her might but it still it didn't cause as much damage as she was expecting. She looked over to her Instructor "I hope the fight with the GF won't be this hard." Instructor Tilmitt looked back at her student and smiled faintly. "Bahamut will be a huge test of her powers with out monster fights like these." She thought before raising her Shinobou and pulled them to her face. Green bubbles swirled around her head and her and Tsukai vanished as the great Anima exploded through the floor. With a single blow from the monsters Pain attack the Grendel flopped to the floor with a loud shriek of anguish. "Wow! Your Guardian Force is so powerful!?! What was that attack?" Tsukai asked as they re-materialised. Her Instructor waved her Shinobou around as she explained "That attack is called Pain it can often cause death on it's target, of course you chould be wary of your Gaurdian Forces recovery time too after a special attack like that one." Tsukai nodded and waited for the swirling lights stop again before she advanced a little further into the room.
