This chapter is shorter. There will be a large time jump in the next chapter this is what has been happening in the time before the time jump.

Nina came back and told me who the leaders of the Observants was. There were to leaders Levi and Ruban, along with other sub leaders.
I kept practicing with fly and was doing great! I was flying the whole course very smoothly. I din't stop until I herd Nina at the door. I flew out and let her in. We went back to the training room, I showed her how good I had gotten. She told me that I was doing very well, and that today we would be working on flight again but it would be harder. When we started squares would pop out of no were and two days later she was throwing ecto balls (similar to doge balls) at me. That took four days to get good at.
The next thing we worked on was intangibility. She tough me that the same way as flying on I had to go through the squares. We then worked on making items intangible as well. It took about two weeks to master intangibility .
Then we worked on invisibility. Nina created the course we used for flight and had me fly around it invisible. It took several tries but I eventually could keep it up for several hours. Then I tried invisibility with objects. I master thing in about two weeks as well.
The next week we worked on invisibility and intangibility at the same time. We only worked on this for about a week.
The next thing Nina tough me was how to shoot ecto blast. I was not very accurate so this took a lot of focus. After several months of slowly getting better. Nina started to throw ecto balls after about three months. It became much more difficult to be accurate. I final got it mastered after about eighteen months.
We then spent a week with practicing more with the powers I had learned so far.
After this we worked on improving my senses. We started with hearing. Nina blind folded me and had me sit in the middle of the room. She then created something that made noise and sent it around the room and told me to shoot it. It was extremely hard to do but after about six tries I shoot it. We repeated this and the things slowly go quieter. This took about five months to master. This also made my tower seam much louder than before but I learned to just tone it out. I could now tell where someone was with out having to see them. I could hear the quiet noises they would make.
Next, Nina spent about three years teaching me how to manipulate my ecto energy. I could make any thing I wanted out of it. I mainly used it to create shields and swards. It took a lot of time to get the shields to be extremely strong, I could make a shield that could with stand some of Nina's most powerful blast.
The nest thing I learned to do was duplicate. It was extremely hard and often gave me a headache after I reabsorbed the duplication. It took several weeks just to make the fist duplication. It only stayed for about thirty seconds but I had finally made one. After that I started focusing on holing them for longer times and then making more than one. I had leaned to make about three hundred and had learned how to absorb the memories without giving my self a head ache. This all took about seven years.
We worked on hand to hand combat for about ten years. I had only won one fight with Nina but had gotten close several time.
The last power we worked on was my time powers. Nina told me that this was a power I needed to learn on my own. I spent a lot of time in front of the viewing screens. It took about two months before I even got one glimpse of the time stream, besides the visions in my head. It took a hundred years before I had masted how to use the viewing screens. In this time Nina had stopped visiting me every day. Now she usually visited once or twice a month.
