After the dinner the Silver Dragons had met Nikodemus, the royal mage. He had shown them the Castle, And they all could agree in one thing: It was beautiful. It had a garden, the biggest anyone of them ever had seen before! It had all kinds of rare flowers, the most of them were flowers from faraway land which had been transported, others were so common that you could find them in the nearest meadow! There even were real animals there like rabbits, hedgehogs, birds and many other kinds of small critters there too. The ball room was enormous, definitely the biggest room in the castle! The floor was made of many, many pieces of coloured glass while one window alone was cowering a whole wall! And then it was the little house right besides the garden where they kept all their eagles, not big but not small ether. They used the eagles when they wanted to send away messages to a place that was too far from the castle to send messengers, because these eagles came back when they were released. And the Silver Dragons were really surprised when they received a eagle each! Nikodemus said that if the were out on a mission and needed to tell the king or one of the officers something of great importance, a eagle would be perfect for sending it! Because it was not legal to kill a eagle, so it was no way to stop the message!

But when Nikodemus had shown them everything from bottom to top, then the sun had gone behind the mountains and the moon had begun to climb it's way up.

"And now boys and girls.." he grinned fondly. " Or shall I say `my brave warriors`, it's time for you to jump into bed!" He chuckled and waved them down the corridor. "This is your sleeping hall, or the `dragon chambers`, as we like to call them" He sopped at the foot of two stairs which were leading left and right. "Darrel and Zack, you two go up the left stairs, you'll find the boys` sleeping chamber, While Tomoe and Erania, goes to the right, to the girls` " He yawned . "Goodnight.." And then he went out the door they had came in from.

And there they stood alone again..

"Well.." Erania said, while she yawned and stretched herself. "I guess well just have to go to bed like our black mage said, eh?" She suggested.

"Yeah! I want be ready for the test tomorrow!" Zack said eagerly. Darrel cocked an eyebrow.

"Test?" He asked, his voice sour like someone just had squeezed a lemon into his mouth. Zack and Erania both looked at him in disbelief.

"You don't know about the tests?" Zack asked matter-of-factly.

"Hn.. No one told me that we had to go through tests to become a Silver dragon" Darrel crossed his arms and made it very clear that he didn't want to be talked to in that way.

"What tests?!" Tomoe asked desperately. Now she was nervous, what if the tests were difficult? What if she would fail?!

"Oh..."Erania took a step backwards and sat town at the stairs. "...No " She moaned in annoyance and frustration. They didn't know what THE tests was. And if they failed at the tests she could kiss the Dragon rank goodbye.

"Oh my." Zack sighed. "You really don't know what the F.I.W.W.P.E tests are." he scratched his head and laughed nervously.

"F.I.W.W.P.E??" Tomoe asked, she had no clue what it was!

She had lived in a peaceful town that were miles away from any castle! How could she know?

" Fire, ice, water, wind, psychic and earth." Erania said dryly. Then she stood up, straightened her clothes and looked very seriously at Zack.

"How are we going to win the fire test tomorrow when they have no clue what to do?" She asked. Zack shrugged. "We can't give up now! Not when we've come so far!"

"Yeah.. It's a real mess we've got us into here.."

"Hey, what's the problem?" Asked Darrel. "Why can't you just teach us!?"

"W.Well..I.I d.don`t t.think that w.would work " Zack cursed himself. He was starting to stutter. It always happened when he got nervous or very angry. And now when he almost didn't know the people he were talking to , it only got worse!

"Eh.. I'm sorry, Captain, B.But it's a little hard to teach you what we've used eighteen years to learn.." Erania said.

"You don't have to teach us EVERYTHING, but only the most important things" Tomoe suggested. But Darrel shook his head.

"No, I have a better idea.." He carefully removed one of his leather gloves, while the others watched his every move with interest, but when he finally reached out and wanted to touch Erania, she pulled back with a small yelp. Darrel smiled warmly and chuckled. "I'm not going to hurt you." Erania was about to say something, but Darrel shook his head. "It's not dangerous!"

"O.Okay.."Erania let him touch her, but it didn't hurt like she had expected it to, it felt kind of good. But one thing was clear for her: He was using some kind of magic, She was having some kind of flashback, because she could see her father and herself sitting on the fields of Luna, and Jarek was teaching her about the tests. Many scenes went through her mind, but when Darrel let go of her hand, she moaned. "My legs!" She said weakly, and quickly leaned towards the wall and slowly slid down to the floor, her legs felt like they were made of jelly, and the world was spinning like a merry-go-round

"What did you do?!" Tomoe asked, there was anger in her voice. She sat down besides Erania, and took the hand Darrel had held and checked for any type of curse, while Erania`s eyes had rolled back into her head and looked like a maniac. " Snap out of it!" She gently slapped Erania a couple of times in the face. Erania quickly came back to her senses, she seemed unharmed..

"Oh..My..God!" She took a deep breath. " It felt like I had got myself drunk or something..!" She stood up on shaky legs with a little help from Tomoe and leaned on the wall. "It's not nice stealing other people's memories, you know!" Yes, Erania could now feel what Darrel had done.

"But it worked!" Darrel said. "And now three of us knows about the tests"

"What? You know how to steal memories?!" Zack asked eagerly. "That's just sooo cool!" But Tomoe wasn't in the same spirit..

"Hey! That's unfair! Now I'm the only one who doesn't know about the tests!" Darrel smiled.

"No, it works the other way too!" Darrel quickly grabbed Tomoe's arm before she could protest. Tomoe gasped when everything she'd ever need no know about the test just popped into her brain. But the good feeling disappeared as soon as it had come when Darrel let go of her. She fell down at the floor like a heavy rock and held her head with both of her hands. "Oh." She moaned "I think I'm going to be sick."

"You can feed the brain memories too!?" Zack stared wide eyed at Darrel.

"Yeah, It's some of the good parts by being a Celestial adept." Darrel smiled proudly. He knew that celestial were one of the worlds most rare elements, and one of the most powerful..

"You're a Celestial adept?" Erania asked. Darrel nodded.

"Awesome! No wonder why you are our captain!" Tomoe said breathlessly. "My element is Saturn, it's strong against earth but weak against fire! I normally use my magic to battle, but I have some nifty healing spells too! The reason I joined this army is because I want to find my blood-family, and make sure their life's becomes a living hell!" She cracked her knuckles and smiled evilly "My speciality is life and death magic!"

"Well.. I'm a dark adept. My element is just as strong against any type of the elements, except from the sun element, of course! My speciality is combat! I draw energy from my element and use it for my own protection and maybe sometimes in combos! I've trained with the knights for a very long time now, they know me as a red mage!" Zack informed.

"You have one of the dark elements, too? Cool!" She grinned broadly and crossed her arms. "My element is the Luna element, or the Moon element, as many call it. Its especially strong against fire, but weak against the sun element!, just like yours!" She nodded towards Zack. " My element gives me the full power to control the moon! I can capture souls from people and prison them in my moon orb! Sadly, I have no healing spells, And I bet my horse on that you don't have any ether Zack. But I can read minds when its full moon!" Erania declared. Tomoe set up a wondering gaze.

"Why can't you use healing spells? Even if people don't have a healing element, they still has some healing spells. Why haven't you?" She asked.

"The elements we have is said to be Evil elements, you see.." Replied Zack. "There even are people who despise us.. Just because we are the few chosen ones to hold these elements.." Zack smile sadly. " There are not many of us left now.One in a million.. Or less" Tomoe gasped.

"B.But how can they possible know that you two are one of these?!" She asked. Zack shrugged.

"Well.. There are many ways. They can see at our fighting style.. Or use a sceptre called an Angel-eye.. Or." He looked at Erania. " They can look at our eyes." Erania quickly closed her eyes and looked down at the floor in shame. Tomoe looked Zack deeply in his eyes and nodded.

"A green and a blue eye." She whispered. ".Is the sign of the dark arts." She had read it in one of the elemental books she once had borrowed in the library while she still lived with Drins and her mother. "But.That's just not fair.. No one should ever accuse people of being evil just because their elements!

"I know."Zack said calmly. "But that's just something that we have to live with." Then a bright smile spread across his lips. "Lets not talk about such depressing things now!" Darrel nodded in agreement.. and sympathy.

"You already know my element" He said, and yawned. "But.It's late, and we're all tired.So why don't we just go to bed and get a good night's sleep?" He smiled. "We can get to know each other better tomorrow, yes?"

"You're right.Goodnight.." Tomoe waved and started to walk slowly up the stairs, but stopped when Erania cleared her throat a little higher then normal. "Yeeees?" Asked silkily and turned on her heels.

"You have to get the captains approval to leave." Erania informed. Darrel chuckled and waved them away.

"Oh, go on! Jump into bed and start counting sheep's!" Darrel went up the stairs and closed the door behind him.
