Test??

Cyan whispered to Hoka a plan. Since the cop had an idea they knew about the two hidden people, they could both get CamRaia and the other person - Winstance - exposed. With that done the cop would have had to explain himself.

"Okay guys, it's time to get in there," he said.

"Race you there," Cyan winked at Hoka, and bolted off.

"No, I'm getting there first!" Hoka responded, opening a portal below Cyan, who summoned the sea staff and threw it before falling into the portal. While it flew, water spurred from its front end. Hoka closed the portal Cyan fell in.

"H-hey! What did you just do?!" the officer asked in shock.

"Nothing serious, just dropped him in a -25° portal realm," Hoka smiled, and ran for the building.

"Hey! Get him out now!" the cop said, inevitably chasing after Hoka.

On Cyan's end, the portal realm was cool in two ways. It was actually very cool, cold even, and the other cool was that it almost look like he was in space, only without the multicolored nebulae. It was just innate darkness with what seemed to be stars scattered all around. Either way, he got straight to the main course of the plan. He was already in water mode and made water swirl around him like a bubble. As the water swirled around him ,it froze, so he had to be fast. The speed at which he fell into the portal increased while in the portal realm, so he was going faster in the endless space in wait for Hoka to get him out.

While Hoka ran from the officer, he made portals in front of the soaring sea staff, to both increase its speed and make it sharp like a spear. When the sea staff reached the "building", it sort of pierced reality as if it broke glass, as the image of the building began to disappear. It was a barrier of Winstance, who saw the breach and hardened the place, so the staff only cracked that side. "They had a plan all along…" she sighed, attempting to fix the crack.

Then she realized the cracks weren't closing. The ice had seeped into the cracks keeping them open. While falling into the portal realm, Cyan notices his kaiku forming into a candy and tossed it at Hoka before the portal closed. Hoka ate it, giving him Cyan's radiant temporarily, barely able to control ice. While still running from the officer, he used the ice that infiltrated the cracks to freeze her hands to the barrier. "What the - These kids! My hands are stuck! If this keeps up, I'll run out of kaiku!" she thought to herself. Well known to most people, if not everyone, her barriers get weaker with less kaiku, and if she was going to conserve it, the barriers would just be weaker. The main plan was to drain Winstance first in order to expose her! "They're actually doing well! " She thought, still modifying the barrier. She made a few poles from the barrier with squares to act as makeshift saws to grind the ice off. Little did she know, the ice was reinforced and she was inevitably wasting more kaiku, perfect for the plan.

At that point the barriers could only handle an impact of 35kmph. It was perfect as the final part of the plan was to be executed. The cop was right behind Hoka. Another part of the plan was to reveal the cop's identity. If he was a cop, he'd have forced them in the prison a while ago. With the possibility he wasn't a cop, he would be able to Dodge the final phase of the plan. Hoka finally opened the portal Cyan fell into. He was out of the portal with a whopping speed of 57kmph!

"Oh no!" CamRaia exclaimed internally, subconsciously becoming visible. Hoka, without any hesitation jumped on the ice sphere Cyan was in, accurately clinging to it from behind. They were closing in on the barrier. "WE GOT THEM NO-"

They smashed the barrier. The sea staff pulsed more ice through the cracks, deconstructing the whole barrier. The impact force sent Winstance and CamRaia away. The cop was nowhere to be seen.

The silence was deafening. Hoka and Cyan were sprawled on the floor. Cyan was dazed for a few seconds before regaining his vision. Looking all around, there was only a random-looking building behind them, not the prison, with barrier and ice shards on the floor. Then he remembered what happened. It occurred to him, they really didn't have a reason for smashing through the barrier after cracking it at first. CamRaia reappeared, trying to catch her breath from laughing. She had sleek black hair, lavender eyes, with her suit looking like something that came off a sci-fi movie, a gray onesie-ish suit with motherboard chip lines riddled all over it, glowing light blue a little. She stopped laughing and sighed.

I didn't really want to post it online, but whatever you guys did is so going viral," she said. Hoka, Cyan and Winstance got up slowly. Winstance had a puffed up, spiky ponytail. Her hair was red and her eyes were brown. She looked at Cyan and Hoka with such rage, they almost got intimidated. "WHAT ON EARTH WERE YOU GUYS THINKING?! APART FROM IT BEING INCREDIBLY STUPID, IT WAS DEADLY! I'M A PRO HERO, BUT I'M STILL A HUMAN BEING!" She kept on lamenting. I couldn't listen because there was absolutely no reason for her to be complaining about getting hurt. It was like an Armor, made with white, small but visible, hexagonal plates. Eventually she stopped sparking.

"I don't think it's their fault," CamRaia said.

"It's yours. Your barrier was a total failure," she smirked.

"Let's not go there! Your highly detectable kaiku gave us off!" Winstance protested.

"Your inability to do something without issues is mesmerizing. You had one job, Winstance," CamRaia taunted.

Winstance hesitated.

"W-well I'm the twelfth storey," She said, as she always did in a fight to boost confidence.

"And I'm the tenth. I overpowered you to get to this rank," CamRaia bragged with a smirk. Then, an ice shard shot I between them. "I don't think storeys should argue about such petty matters," Hoka said, speaking like his dad. "Right, Cyan?" He asked. Cyan was I his own world, gobbling up the rest of his milk and cookies. He couldn't let go of the thing that took him out of his house. He gulped down the milk and focused.

"Right! Wait... what was the question?" he asked

"And that is the first, and will be the last time I wear this wig," The cop said, tossing away a wig. His silver-like hair had been smothered down by the wig, but with a quick "poof! " His hair went back to what seemed to be its original spiky state, making it easier to recognize.

"NRG?" Cyan asked in awe. NRG was personally Cyan's favorite storey. He couldn't believe it. NRG's fierce looking eyes were golden (not yellow) because of his radiant. His suit was a long cloak-like jacket, with two charger plugs coming it from the back.

"Yeah, the one and only. Anyway, time to explain," He said.

"You guys passed the test!" He smiled

"Test??" Cyan and Hoka echoed.

"Yes. All you two went through from the store was all a test! I recorded everything!" CamRaia said.

"Kaito wasn't an imp?" Cyan asked. "No, he was wearing a suit to be deactivated by your kaiku," Winstance explained.

"How'd you know about that before even meeting him?" Hoka asked. "Your parents sent a kaiku sample from each of you last year. We spent our time analyzing them to give us a rough sketch of your capabilities," NRG said

"Yea, your parents should have told you," CamRaia said.

"I live with my uncle. I lost my parents when I was two. The Karonoph rampage," Cyan said. NRG spaced out a little as if a bad memory flashed by him.

 "For someone who lost his people at such a horrid time, he seems okay," Winstance thought.

"A-anyway, you passed the test," CamRaia broke the silence, seeking to change the subject.

"Test for what, though?" Hoka asked.

"Entry into P. O. W. E. R. Level," She answered. At first, Cyan and Hoka were trying to process it. "Wait for it..." NRG whispered to Winstance. Cyan and Hoka looked at each other and beamed.

"NO WAY!" they jumped.

"Yes way. You're in," CamRaia assured. The two jumped around like scatter brains. It was a dream come true for them.

"How do you guys feel?" Winstance asked. Cyan and Hoka were so happy they resorted to gibberish for a few seconds. They calmed down soon, still excited internally. "Okay. I'll take them to the waiting room. We've still got more to come," NRG said.
