《Cross Roads: Rebranding Chaos (Book Four)》Chapter 17
Advertisement
Early that afternoon, Chloe decided to handle Natalia’s physical evaluation at the Interpol Facility. The logical choice was that they had more similar equipment at their disposal and away from more prying eyes trying to hinder the assessment. Chloe and her team conducted these assessments thoroughly. Natalia’s body was thick, well-toned, and quite muscular. She looked like she had zero body fat, which made the other females a little jealous.
Natalia started her series of Push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and 700-kilogram bench press repetitions. All of them she had to do in 15 minutes. She was quite impressive doing 522 push-ups in 15 minutes, 327 sit-ups in 15 minutes, and done an impressive 183 bench press repetitions of 700 kilograms.
Afterward, she had to do a 5K run on a treadmill. She had to test her flexibility and mobility by doing a series of stretches and jumps. The complete evaluation was indeed exhausting, especially for somebody like Natalia. After they were all done with their assessments, Natalia slowly collapsed due to exhaustion. Lying flat on her back and sucking in as much air as she could in her lungs, her whole body felt like it was on fire. She believed in her heart; she passed the first evaluation.
After a 30-minute recess, then it was time to evaluate her nether energy. Her main powers are electrical manipulation, where she can channel electricity throughout her entire body or shoot lightning projections. As recorded, Chloe, in her team, wanted to know just how lethal they can be. They rigged up a test dummy to see just how devastating her lightning attacks can be and how she can readjust out to the field.
Between the test model and Natalia, it was at least 15 feet. That was plenty of room for the two. As Natalia held out her hand and pointed it at the dummy, she began to conjure electricity into her hand. Chloe and her team were ready to record her lightning projectile, but something was amiss. Natalia didn’t shoot the test dummy.

Her hand started to tremble as her arm began to feel heavy. Her heart began to race as her eyes began to water. This overwhelming of dread and sorrow crept up, and the flashbacks started to come back to her. That time where she shot a lightning blast recklessly at the bomb that killed and severely injured many people. Including herself.
Snapping out of it, she fired the lightning blast at the test dummy and missing it entirely. She wasn’t surprised as it was just a practice shot. She loosened herself up again as she once again began to conjure electricity into her hand.
Again, her hand started to tremble and or arm began to feel even more oppressive. Her heart started racing even faster. Gritting her teeth, trying to accomplish just the simplest of tasks of throwing a single lightning blast at a dummy, she couldn’t do it as she missed the target again.
Frantically, she charged her attack as she began to conjure electricity in both hands and started throwing barrages of lightning attacks at the test dummy. Out of the 17 lightning projectiles, none of them hit the target. Fed up with her aim, she walked up towards the model and punched its head off. Afterward, she stormed out of the room.
“I guess we can record that,” Chloe bantered while she was in the other room seeing the events through the one-way glass.
After she had regained her composure, it was time for the psych exam. Natalia got herself dressed in a fitness jumpsuit, patiently waiting for anyone to come into the room. The room itself was well furnished and even had a window view of the courtyard.

Dungeons & Demons
*!* This story is currently being continued on a different page, following years of hiatus and extensive rewrites *!* Please follow the link to read the up-to-date version: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/53863/cycles-of-ruin Basil von Doom is a powerful dungeon keeper with a simple mission: to bring ruin and destruction upon civilized worlds at the height of their decadence and stagnation. Much like his father before him, the new master of House Doom is a prodigy of war, yet the venerable minions of his household still hold strange loyalties toward his missing ancestor, silently comparing the legendary rage of his father to the more pragmatic approach of the son. Adding to Basil’s frustrations is the lack of accomplishment he feels for his work, with the dungeon keeper often taking on handicaps just to give his enemies a fighting chance. With all the power and wealth one could ever dream of already within his grasp, Basil now finds that the achievements of others kindle more joy in his heart than his own crushing victories. Thus Basil has taken up mentoring the next generation of dungeon keepers to try and diagnose the cause for his own lack of passion. With his apprentice, Elnora, managing most of the daily work around the dungeon, Basil can finally turn his attention towards his personal concerns, such as tackling the shadow of his legendary father that still looms large over him.

MLP Equestria Girls - Lucky Chances
I wasn't minding my own business really. Truth be told, I was just a child when I saw the show. But, further on I started to think back on the new world introduced in that Equestria Girls film. All was well in my life, new friends, new adventures... until my accident on our first group camping trip.Unfortunately, I awoke with amnesia, so I had no recollection of how I'd even survived the accident. I had no idea where I was either, as I was extremely disoriented when I eventually woke up. I didn't see my car anywhere, which scared me a bit. It wasn't until I noticed the sensation of where I am... to where I once was. I panicked harshly when the world looked different to what I thought I was used to. I found myself making friends with some local school girls. They felt familiar, just like the world, but I had no idea who they were. All I could do was trust them, thinking that I'm a part of this world now. But I get the sneaking suspicion that I'm not welcome here, or that I'm not supposed to have powers. Progress: Complete - 100%
