Bhu barely had time to register Alex beside her as the stands started to fill up with her classmates. Didn't take long for the headmaster to show himself to the group and announce that they would be tested. Sucking in a breath, the girl slowly rose to her feet and made her way over to her designated spot. The thought of bringing her element to her full ability made her insides flip. She looked around at her environment and the feeling of dread only grew. Her element was everywhere, fully encasing everyone in this cave. What would happen if she became too lost within herself? What chaos could she bring?

Her body started to shake lightly as her anxiety blossomed. Squeezing her eyes shut, her hands balled into fists, Bhu slowly began to meditate to calm her nerves. After a few moments, she allowed her eyes to once more open. She looked around and caught sight of her professors above her. [i]No pressure...Only everyone's eyes are on you...We can do this. Get it together, woman![/color]

With a clearing of her throat, she gently released the tension from her hands. Bhu closed her eyes once more as she began to focus. She could smell the filaments of the earth beneath her feet, could feel the energy bouncing in the air around her. A small grin tugged at the corners of her lips as she felt movement above the palms of her hands. Without looking, she could tell that two small funnels of sand had begun to form in each hand. But, this little display wouldn't earn her any credit. It needed to be bigger.

She opened her hands completely, her fingers stretching towards the ground. As the funnels grew larger in size and girth, Bhu's hair started to whip violently around her head. A small tremor at the base of her feet made its presence as the sand funnels combined into a massive tornado a mere foot in front of the girl. Beads of sweat pooled at her temples and the grin quickly turned into a grimace as she tried to maintain control over her element. The struggle only caused the tremor to erupt, breaking the ground at both sides of her feet. Soon the entirety of the ground began to shake in violence. The sand tornado had grown to more than ten feet in height and could swallow her whole.

Bhu was losing control. She could swear that she heard someone screaming- took her several moments for her to realize that the scream came from her own throat. Before she could react, the firm ground at her feet broke open, causing her to fall roughly to her knees. The pain jolted her awake. With a large gasp, her eyes flew open to witness the funnel collapsing, causing the sand to fall all around her. Bhu closed her eyes once more and tried to slow down her rapid heartbeat. [i]Didn't know I could do all that....damn..[/i]
