Congrats

I sat in the hall for 2 more hours with cindy and amanda then I got called back in to the council chamber. I walk in standing next to my brother in the middle of the speaking floor the high seat read off our scores he says "First to Devin congratulations to Devin on the fastest completion of the cirriculum and all three test the fastest in seti history, also It was the fastest completion of all three test while scoring a perfect on all three. These feats in their own right are amazing then You present a new theory of your own design that will change all magic as we know it Truely amazing achievements but thats not it Vanessa you also completed all three test with a perfect score on all three the fastest anyone has completed a test and achieved a perfect score. Then You also bring a new theory solving problems thousands of years old while opening many new paths and applications of Transfiguration magic. You are both hereby granted the title of master of your respective schools of magic as well as the title of expert in each others school. Your notes and paper are authorized for distribution to the general public, and I will personally make sure they know of your scores and titles. Now normally you would be dissmissed for one week to recover however this council must ask that you give up this right to accept a new challenge do you accept?" Together my brother and I respond "Yes, high seat what do you require?" "I thank you for accepting, I have heard that you Devin wish to become a general and you vanessa to assist him as his personal aid is this true?" together we say "yes it is high seat." High seat smiles wide and says You do not know how glad I am to hear this, However I have two new units that will be working very closely together I would like you Devin to lead one while You Vanessa lead the other will you do this, You will each be assigned an Aid but you 2 will never be away from each other, filling the positions for you vanessa will be cindy and for you Devin will be amanda, no longer will they be your teachers they will be your subbordanats, do you accept?" Together we respond "Yes of course high seat whatever seti requires." The high seat nodes and leans forward toward us and says "the time to prepare for this normally is at least a year I need you in half that time, The council has allowed me to be both of your mentors for this training. We will meet at my chamber door tonight at midnight to begin, bring only yourselves, training will be constant until its completion then depending on time remaining you may or may not be allowed leave before assuming your new commands. To the both of you I offer my greatest appreciation and thanks, copies of your research notes and paper's are on the table by the door I am sure your new assistants would like a copy they have already been informed of their new positions. During your training they will attempt to continue your research in your stead. You are both dissmissed i'll see you at midnight." My brother and I turn and exit I grab the papers on our way out handing Devin's papers to amanda and mine to Cindy and asked "they told you?" Cindy replied in her usual sarcasm "Yes they did congratulations are in order but we have been given task to help you do before you begin training should only take about an hour. I'll explain when we get you 2 to your new offices, please follow me." Our new offices were with the council offices we walked in to a door that was next to our parents offices. the front room had 2 desk facing the door to the hallway behind each Desk there stood another Door one red one black cindy grabs my hand amanda grabs Devins hand I'm takin to the black door Devin to the red one. Amanda and Cindy speak together "This is your new office only you may enter at will only those you invite may enter until you want them gone. Please enter and Invite us in so we may continue with our tasks." I open my door My brother does the same and we enter into our respective offices I turn to Cindy and say "You may enter." Cindy walks in the door closes automatically behind her she walk to my new desk and sets down a black binder and says "You must read this entirely before midnight, also make a list of task for me while your gone, research is what I was told to suggest but to say they're more ideas in the binder. I'll be in the front office at my desk going over your paper and research notes if you need anything, Pen and paper are in the Desk." Cindy turns and Exited my office, I open the binder and begin to read. It explains the planned ciriculum and training that I am expected to complete before assuming command of the newly formed special ops unit called Ghost. It mission in addition to supporting the newly formed Infantry unit Called Demon, Ghost is to conduct surveilance, gather intel, interrogate prisoners, and **** missions are a few examples. It takes several hours to read the entire binder I finish just after 10 at night, I quickly write out a list of things for Cindy to do as suggested by my binder, I place the binder in the safe in my desk and lock the safe I walk out to Cindy's desk and hand her the list. Devin is doing the same with amanda, we start walking to our family chambers. When we arrive mom and Dad both Hugs us tell us how proud they are and they know were busy and only have about an hour. Mom Grabs our hands and says "high seat also said to show his grattitude he is giving you the one of the open towers as your new home even though you 2 aren't 25 or married. He had Your stuff moved and stocked the place himself with a few things he thought you two would like from his private collection, The papers are on the table, you guys should check it out." Extremely surprised such a thing hasn't been done well ever that I had heard of Devin and I said "of course lets head over there now before we meet up with the high seat, would you guys like to come?" Mom and dad were estatic dad says "if were invited of course we do!" We arrive at our new tower I was huge now as big as the high seat's tower, but it was close it was definitely bigger than tower for the council families tower which had six houses three families on the council three more for their children we had the whole tower for just 2 people. We looked around the tower and saw more than a few hundred things the high seat gave us all original and priceless. The Library and research areas got the most, 1000 books most I had heard of but had never been lucky enough to see copies of, and the research lab had was 10 times that of the best lab outside the castle. we weren't halfway done when we had to leave to be on time at the high seat's chambers. mom and dad return to their home we lock our new home up and head to the office and grab our binders, we arrive at the high seat's door 5 minutes before midnight. The door opens the high seat says to us "I heard your always early, hurry come in and follow me." We enter into the foryer the door closing behind us we follow the high seat and to his office at the top of his tower, There were three Desk one large in the center then two smaller desk one red one black. The high seat looks at me and says "take you seat vanessa, can you guess which one is yours?" I reply quickly "the black desk is mine just like the black office door and binder, Black is the color that you designated for the new unit you wish me to command, am I correct high seat?" The high seat says to me "Yes you are, Devin the red desk is yours please seat yourself, but both of you from now on when it is just the three of us or I say other wise call me Alex." We reply "yes Alex, of course." Taking our seats, Alex takes his.
