After the mysterious death of his parents, Silas was sent to live with his estranged paternal grandfather in Salem. Silas finds a book hidden in an abandoned room and insists that his grandfather explains what is. Soon after Silas gladly enrolled an...
A modest, brown surge of sparks rushed through the hall unlocking every door. Two cloaked students went into every room dragging the poor inhabitants out without them even knowing. The group of students pulled the new ones out of the dorm and into an open field.
" Wake up " A ruff teen voice yelled
Silas was the second to wake up, after an olive-skinned boy with sapphire blue eyes. Soon everyone was awake and shaking in the cold night air.
" My name is Cyrus I'll be administrating your acceptance trial tonight. The first trial you must catch lightning in a bottle "
" How, when we have no previous training " the boy voiced
" With this bottle " Cyrus stated, snapping his fingers
two of the cloaked students began to hand out teardrop-shaped glass bottles
" Let water rain as wind turn, darken the skies with your holy disdain " a cloaked student chanted
The sky darkened quickly as freezing cold water raged downward, the wind picked up to near howling lightning flashed in the swirling storm.
" Okay lift up the bottle and catch lightning " Cyrus ordered
Silas closed his eyes go through his mind of what he had read earlier that day.
" Enhancement, believe that the object became stronger and so it shall "
Silas put his heart into believing the bottle was dense enough to catch lightning. Two people were thrown back by the lightning receiving large charr marks on their chest and arms. Silas concentrated on the bottle and as lightning strikes the bottle it was contained.
The other two students the boy from earlier and a girl with honey tan-skinned and emerald green eyes caught their own lightning bolts.
" Take those two to the infirmary in then to their rooms " Cyrus continued
" You three, your next trial is the test of transformation. you must transform into a creature of your chose. "
" I'm not doing a goddamn thing but going to my room " Silas spoke
Silas stepped forward toward the school building. He was stopped when a bolt of lightning slammed right in front of Silas nearly hitting him. Lucky for Silas his mother forced him to learn kung fu and so he back-flipped onto his hands and then back on his feet.
" What the fuck " Silas yelled
" You either continue the trials or be sent to the infirmary " Cyrus threatened
" Or be sent to the infirmary " Silas mocked
Cyrus snapped and with the help of the same cloaked student five bolts of lightning rained down on the trio of newbies.
" Don't mock him when we can't protect ourselves yet " The boy continued
" My names Samuel but you can call me Sam "
" I'm Silas "
" And you are, " Sam asked as he reached out his hand toward the emerald-eyed girl
" Circe, nice to meet you "
" Ok so I read somewhere that to transform you have to develop your body in magic and picture yourself transforming into what every creature " Sam stated
Silas sat down and closed his eyes, after learning kung fu it took up meditation. He focused on his breathing letting his mind wander instead of picture an animal to change into Silas allowed the universe to decide.
Silas coated his body in energy and in one fell swoop lifted his arms above his head like wings triggering a transformation. His body sprouted feathers then a beak claws, finally his arms turned into wings as a set or smaller wings emerge from his lower back. He grew a tail and horns. Silas had changed into a legendary thunderbird sibling to the phoenix.

" Caaaawwww " Silas shrieks
The first time this night a cloaked member spoke
" Don't you transform into a Phoenix, what's that "
" It's a thunderbird, the phoenix's brother " Cyrus explained
