Stiles looked up as Saffron called a halt, just as they all finished the last full circle of moves.

"Okay! Well done everyone!!! Now comes the exciting part. The testing part", she giggled manically.

"Has anyone ever told her she looks like a mad scientist when she does that?" Stiles muttered mostly to his-self, though Clara, Sam and Janet bit back sniggers.

Clara leaned in, "We have but she's never seemed to care"; she shrugged and hastily straightened as she spied Jacqueline and Derek coming from their left.

Saffron handed Jacqueline her microphone and stepped off of the stage, Derek waited patiently besides her, barely looking in his direction, but he refrained from scowling.

The man looked a thousand miles away.

Stiles wondered what could have happened in the—

Yowezee!!! What the hell?!

—five hours since they last spoke.

Holy Hell!!!

Apparently he'd been practicing Capoeira for five hours? It barely felt like just two hours had past.

"Good Afternoon everyone", Jacqueline smiled, "You look all perfectly exhausted and yet as energetic as we hoped this class would make you feel", she hummed pleasantly.

"We hoped you enjoyed the basic training Saffron has given you all. To make things more interesting and fun, yet still educational for us, we've decided to host this test. We do it at every class, it helps us gather the required knowledge of which level you're at, and how to further provide you with the knowledge to continue", she smiled softly.

"Understandably most of you are from foreign cities and countries and following our practice might be difficult, it's why you were divided into groups of two per instructor", she hummed, "You will be given our professional skype ids, a timetable and online platform for which classes will be continued. Unless you wish to stick to the six months training here (pretty much the whole day, interspersed with breaks), we are happy to have you, but since half of you do have school and business, we also give you this test", she explained sincerely.

"Now I have been watching you, and have decided to divide the thirteen of you into four blocks. The test is taken in the time frame of two rounds. The first round will commence in thirty minutes. That means you have a thirty minute window of resting or talking, or a small nap. You can change your clothes or however you think will help you relax. Saffron will post the names on the notice board at twelve thirty-five sharp, so you will not know who you are facing until you return from the break you've been allotted", she stated firmly, "Dismissed!" she ordered crisply and then walked off the platform.
