Luna: Hello class, as most of you have already realized, this class used to be focusing on your control. Well now we're working on going past the mental barrier that you're putting up.
Bloom: So, like the opposite?
Everyone looks at her in shock. If this is the way she addresses the queen, why aren't we already like best friends? I like this girl.
Luna: Well I suppose, and next time Bloom, please raise your hand.
Everyone thinks that the queen is some sweet goddess, but a few of us know the truth.

Luna: So, everyone partner up and sit next to each other please. Quickly.
Before I can even react, Stella practically runs to the empty spot beside me. I guess we're partners then, I'm not complaining though.
Luna: Now everyone, I will send you and your partner into separate alternate dimensions where you two have to survive your worst fear. All you have to do is find each other. That's it.
Her eyes start glowing and everything starts shaking. Then seconds later, I'm not sitting in class beside Stella anymore.

I look around and I'm here, this can't even be possible. I'm in the forest that I've been seeing in my nightmares. I haven't told anybody about this before, it's just a stupid nightmare right? I look around and see two people standing in front of me- holding a child. One of them is male, the other female. They look like they're in their early thirties. No, it can't be.

Everything starts shaking again and a new scene appears in front of me. A boy, around the age of twenty, trapped. Onyx. I try to go down in the hole to help him- but there's a barrier. I bang my feet violently on the invisible force like it's going to do something. It's not doing-
Stella: Raven! Can you hear me?
Me: Yes! Where are you?!
Stella: I don't know, well, I know where I think I am, but I don't know how we're talking to each other. How is this even possible?!
Me: I don't know, let's just stay calm. I think I can hear you to my right.

I walk over the hole, trying to ignore Onyx, when I reach another wall. I start feeling the wall and find a trap door. I open it and go through. I look around and see that I'm in a gold room with paintings, and Stella.
Me: Stella! You're here!
Stella: Oh my god Raven! You did it.
Me: We did it, I didn't even think to talk to you.
We laugh and then the earth starts shaking again. We grab onto each other, and suddenly, everything seems okay.

Our vision goes back to normal, and I'd assume that most of the class would still be in theirs, but I was wrong. Everyone was staring at us.
Luna: Well done girls.
Me: Sorry your majesty, but why wasn't everyone else in their alternate dimensions? Or did we just do really badly?
Luna: Quite the opposite actually. I might have gone a little harsh on all of you, so I took the rest out, yet you two still prevailed. Good job Raven for trying to find Stella quickly.

Stella: C- could you see everything?
Luna: Well yes and no. I was only watching your partner since she was roughly touching the barrier. No worries though Raven.
After that statement, Stella looks relieved. I guess she didn't want her mom to see that her worst nightmare was inside the castle. Yet I'm not quite sure if the queen is telling the truth.
Luna: Well then, in front of you is a test of scenarios to work on alone. As much as I want to work on more magic with you, I have to find out what type of person you are. Once you're all done, just bring it to me. You may start now.

Question 1
What are the two most efficient ways to kill or seriously harm a burned one.

a) Stabbing it with a sword
b) {Crossblade}
c) Magnetic forces
d) {Large quantities of power}
e) Happy emotions

Question 2
How would you react to encountering a burned one across the barrier. There are no wrong answers, just be honest.

If I were to encounter a burned one across the barrier, there are many possible options. I wouldn't run for help, because it obviously wouldn't stay put. If I were out with someone then there's a chance that we would fight it. If I were on my own, than I would wait for it to react. If it fled the scene, I wouldn't chase it, just check the direction that it was going and inform the headmistress and headmaster immediately. If it charged me, I would create a large power source to penetrate it's body, and thoroughly check to make sure it's dead.

After a couple more questions like that, I hand it in to queen Luna, who is at her desk. Stella finished about a minute before and is now reading a book. It's not a romance novel, it's a Solarian history book. I wonder what's up.
Me: Hey, whatcha looking for?
I whispers of course, so no one hears us.
Stella: More information about this invisible kingdom that I heard about when mum put us in that trance. It's name is Tenebris, which means darkness in ancient Latin.
Me: So it's invisible? I didn't think that anyone could be powerful enough to do that.
Stella: I know, that's what I'm trying to find.
