The journey to the their destination was rather uneventful. As the two groups kept vigilant watch over their surroundings marching forward, this time they were more sombre remembering their lesson from before. For this reason the journey remained calm without any chance encounter. In fact the rocky terrain that they had to travel through for the better part of two hours could have be described as deserted.It was clear that wild creatures like the Larcenous Coyts were far and few in between in the surrounding territory of the Groot Colony where it had colonised. This had in large part due to explosive need for resources when the colony had first set up on the small planet, native creatures that had any inkling of intelligence had already migrated outside the distance of the central area where the Groot Colony had landed and made its home.
Clay was glad for once despite the lack of action as they arrived at the foot of the mountain where their path would be divided. Now that they were there, two choices were still in front of them. On the west side of the mountain path which would eventually lead into a forest was the best location for his group, as the forested areas surrounding it would mean that there would definitely be no lack of creatures to hunt. The second road would lead through a cavern inside the mountain which was unknown but the location of water being found from the underground was definite if the intelligence from their info doc could be trusted.
Having arrived to this point, Sigu was the first to speak as she addressed everyone while looking at her group. It looked like she had noticed that the best chances for her group to succeed their mission was to head through the west and take the western path to the water source which could be found in the forest.
Sofi, Reo, Doncaster and Miranda seemed to discuss among themselves for a moment before they unanimously decided that they would also take the western path.
A winding path could be seen going to the west. this time Clay decided to make a suggestion. "the path seems narrow, I think we should go in a certain order in case we meet any creatures along the way, it is better to be prepared now." Some of the group nodded while the rest only glanced at him.
"I know we are still strangers but it better that we understand what our individual abilities are so we can a.s.sign positions, let me begin first: I am still not certain what use my ability has but the doctor for the a.s.sessment called it a "psi manifestation", I can summon a golden wisp that is alive and can respond to my instructions for a short moment." A snort could be heard in the background, Clay didn"t need to guess to know who it was that had laughed at him. "Anyone else?"
The first to show off was Kayden who comfortably announced his ability, though everyone had already seen how powerful it was, he was the only who had directly killed an enemy. "I can create a wind blade using psi energy formed from the air around me."
Next was Miranda who cautiously told the group that she could only use her ability a few times a day during to enormous strain it put on her body. "You guys probably seen it before but I can create a powerful blast of energy by focusing psi energy to one of my fists. However it takes me a little to charge it up."
"My speed increased when I use my ability, the psi energy I can control can be applied like a layer of skin on my body reducing my resistance to wind, so I can move a lot faster than normal," Sigu"s ability was interesting as it could be considered both a powerful ability and an useless ability, however she still beat Clay, at least he could tell as much from everyone"s eyes that occasionally looked at him.
"I am not really sure if mine is useful but when I use my ability I can make a prediction of whether I will be having a bad day or good day." Demonstrating his strange ability, Reo began to summon an orb of light which began to focus on his open palm, the orb was round and bright, however at this moment the colour seemed to change as it began to fade from pure white to grey until eventually showing patches of dark black. His face instantly went pale as he looked at his...o...b.. A stutter came out of his mouth as he couldn"t finish his sentence "we... hhrr.."
"That usually happens if it is going to be a bad day," his sister was the first to speak, seeing that her brother remained tongue tight. It was not a good sign.
Clay became curious as he couldn"t believe the strange ability in front of him. "Does that mean its serious?"
"It depends, a bad day could as easily be breaking a leg to losing a key and becoming locked out for the night." Clay could see that Sigu was trying to downplay the warning, trying not to make the team lose confidence before they started.
"We just have to be more careful." Doncaster broke the mood as he showed a foolish grin while giving Reo a wink. Trying to lift the mood he began to explain his ability, "I can shoot projectiles through the air by compressing it into an arrow, though my aim is not very good, I have only just gotten used to having an ability."
Giving a playful punch to his friend he also explained Tigul"s ability who remained nonplussed by the attention. "This guy can turn his body into metal, he"s three times as powerful when he is in that form."

Seeing that there was still one person left, Clay turned to Sofi. "I can control earth elements around me in a certain distance from my body." Pointing a small line of earth could be seen forming around her highlighting the distance that she could use her ability from.
