__________ stood before their sort-of mentors, Undertaker and William, supposedly going to embark on the final stage of their mana training- portal making. With determination in their eyes and a flicker of uncertainty yet again, ___________ had come a long way in their journey to harness the mystical energy of mana.

Undertaker, a wise and patient male, along with William had guided __________ through countless lessons, teaching them the intricacies of manipulating mana and channeling it to cast spells. Now, they stood at the precipice of a breakthrough, the last part of the lesson that would push __________'s abilities to new heights.

"Are you ready, dearie?" Undertaker asked, his voice filled with both encouragement and expectation.

____________ hesitated for a moment, ___________ hands trembling with a mixture of excitement and fear. They've come so far, mastering the foundational principles, honing their focus and control. But now, faced with the final challenge, doubt began to creep in.

"I... I don't think I can do it," ________ confessed, their voice tinged with apprehension. "It feels... too overwhelming."

Undertaker and William's eyes softened, understanding the trepidation that held ___________ back. Undertaker had seen this before, the fear of embracing the full potential of one's powers. With a reassuring smile, he spoke words that carried the weight of countless years of wisdom.

"__________, I know this last step may seem daunting, but it is the catalyst that will unlock your true potential. Embracing the full breadth of your abilities requires facing your fears head-on. I believe in you, and I know you have the strength within you to overcome this final obstacle."

"C-Can we just do other stuff for now? I'm not ready to make any portals and shi-"  ______ suggests, shaking their head as they decline making a portal yet again. "Maybe teach me something else? Like- how to do some telekinesis type stuff?"

_______'s eyes dart everywhere but at the others, as if avoiding something. But if they insist so, there's not much they can do about it. They were not going to force the poor dear if they weren't ready. It could lead to complications with their mana if they were not ready for it.

Although ______ had shown to be quite the quick learner, they still refuse to go further...

Undertaker and William exchange a knowing glance, understanding ________'s hesitation. They both approach ________ with gentle smiles, their voices filled with reassurance.

"Of course, ________. If you feel more comfortable exploring other aspects of your abilities, we can certainly accommodate that," Undertaker says, his tone soothing.

William nods in agreement. "Telekinesis is a fascinating and useful skill to develop. It will allow you to manipulate objects with your mind, showcasing your growing control over your mana. We can work on that instead."

__________ visibly relaxes, a small smile tugging at the corners of their lips. "Thank you, both of you. I appreciate your understanding."

Undertaker and William guide ________ through the process of telekinesis, teaching them the techniques to focus their mana and direct it towards objects. They start with simple exercises, gradually increasing the difficulty as ________ gains confidence and skill.

With each successful attempt, ________'s confidence begins to grow. They start to believe in their own abilities, realizing that they have the power to shape and control their mana as they desire. The fear that once held them back slowly dissipates, replaced by a newfound determination.

As ________ progresses in their telekinesis training, they become more and more curious about the portal-making process that they had initially shied away from. The spark of interest reignites within them, fueled by their growing confidence.

_________'s gaze shifted, their mind grappling with the decision before them. __________ knew that taking this step would bring them closer to their goal of mastering mana and getting home, but the unknown loomed large in their mind.

William then spoke, his voice gentle yet firm, "Remember, learning to use mana is not just about power; it's about balance and control. By embracing this final lesson, you will not only tap into your true potential but also learn to wield your newfound powers responsibly."

___________ took a deep breath, their heart pounding in their chest. Slowly, __________ nodded, a steely determination replacing Their earlier hesitation. "Alright, I guess I can try..."

And just as they were taught, the image of home comes to mind. As they breathe in and attempt to form the portal much like they've seen in those magical movies. What was it? Doctor Strange? Yes, it was similar to it, the action and such. Except they needed a reflective object to do so. So _________ approaches the mirror Undertaker provided for them. Ciel, Sebastian, Undertaker and William stay at the edge of their seats as they watch _______ form the portal in the glass.

The image of ________'s old room begins to reflect in the mirror. ______ takes a gulp of their saliva, trying to keep the portal open. But they hesitate, an image of a door flashing in the mirror before ______ gasps and ceases their movements. Stopping themselves from making the portal stay intact. Before collapsing to the floor- shaking like a leaf as if they had seen something they shouldn't have.

The room falls into a tense silence as ________ collapses to the floor, trembling with fear and shock. Ciel rushes to their side, concern etched on his face, while Sebastian, Undertaker, and William exchange worried glances.

"What happened, ________?" Ciel asks, his voice filled with genuine concern. "Are you alright?"

__________ struggles to find the words, their voice quivering as they recount what they had seen. "I... I saw a door. It flashed in the mirror, like a warning. It felt... wrong. I couldn't bring myself to continue. I- I know that door... I can't go back there..."

Sebastian's eyes narrow, his voice laced with curiosity and caution. "A door, you say? That's unusual. It seems there may be more to this portal-making process than we initially anticipated."

Undertaker kneels down beside _________, his expression thoughtful. "It appears that your journey home is not as straightforward as we imagined, my dear. There are forces at play that we may not fully comprehend. But fear not, we will find a way to navigate through this obstacle together."

William adds, his voice filled with determination, "We must investigate this further. There may be clues or answers that lie beyond that door. ________, you've shown incredible progress thus far, and we will support you every step of the way."
