Fear flooded his senses.
Unyielding, blood-curdling, girly-high-pitched-screaming, peeing-in-your-pants fear pumping through his every vein.
He clutched his eyes tight, feeling his body tremble with great force.
Then he heard the footsteps.
Sweat trickled down the side of his face as he took air into his lungs with short, rapid breaths.
Closer and closer they came with loud, thundering steps before stopping.
He could practically feel the body heat radiate from the figure he knew was now beside him.
"Mr. Fenton," the voice boomed and echoed around his head.
He swore the world was about to collapse in on him.
"Mr. Fenton," the voice repeated and he suddenly wondered if his panicky emotions had caused his powers to kick in involuntarily.
"Mr. Daniel Fenton," the voice said once more with authority, "I would appreciate it if you would at least give me the common courtesy of meeting my gaze as I hand you back your test paper."
He hesitated, trying to catch his breath, and then slowly opened his eyes.
Mr. Lancer stared back at him with a white sheet of paper held out to him, a percentage and a letter in red ink at the top. "Good work, Mr. Fenton. We'll make a student out of you yet."
He felt all the anxiety in his body leave and be replaced with relief and boundless joy.
He had aced his exam.
