==Chapter Fifteen: Venom==
Topaz and Quartz were working out in the weight room. Topaz was bench pressing more than his normal weight, but couldn't do it. Quartz, being the spotter, lifted the weight back onto the handles.
"Why are you trying so hard?" Quartz asked.
"'Cause I want to be stronger." Topaz replied.
"Have fun with that." Quartz said.
"I'm hitting the showers. Please don't try lifting any more weight." he told his brother.
"Alright, alright." Topaz replied.
After Quartz left, Topaz took a drink of water.
Aurum walked into the weight room.
"Topaz, come with me." Aurum said.
"Okay, why?" he asked.
"You'll find out."
She brought him outside. Midnight was waiting for them, holding a test tube of a green liquid.
"Hey Topaz." Midnight said.
"What do you want?" Topaz asked.
"I want to give you a drink." Midnight said. "If I'm right, you'll be fine. After all, a snake doesn't die from its own venom." After Thorn saved her, Midnight went back to the pool and found a sample of the Jinn's paralyzing venom.
She forced some of the green venom down Topaz's throat.
"Ah!" he yelled.
Topaz fell back, unable to move.
"It didn't work." Aurum said.
"He's...he's not the Jinn?" Midnight asked.
"Guess we have to test someone else." Midnight said.
"I'll take him back to bed. Sorry Topaz." Aurum told him.
The next day, Kyle went to Nails for more information on the Jinn.
"I have no idea how to translate this, but I think you do." he told her.
"I'll see what I can do." Nails promised.
Quartz and Aurum were walking down the hall to chemistry class.
"We'll test the venom during the lab." Aurum said.
"I wish we could just kill her and get it over with." Quartz told her.
"Really? I thought you liked her." Aurum replied.
"I do. I'd just rather it be her dead than me." Quartz said.
Topaz overheard their conversation. He told Thorn and Kyle as they were walking into class.
Alexandria was showing the trainees how to mix chemicals. They learned to create molotav cocktails. Now, they were doing a lab to make rock candy.
"It's perfectly safe to eat the candy after we finish the lab." Alexandria said.
Rose was taking notes off the board. When Rose looked up, she saw Nightshade writing runes in an ancient language. Nightshade then walked to where Rose was sitting and cornered her in the back of the classroom. Nightshade then crushed the chalk in her hand and blew it into Rose's face. Rose closed her eyes.
She found herself at the front of the class, and wrote out "Somebody Help Me" on the board.
"Rose...are you alright?" Alexandria asked.
"I'm sorry....I just...need a minute." Rose said. She went to the back of the classroom.
"Anyways, let's move onto the final part of the lab." Alexandria said.
Quartz went back to Rose's table, giving her a rock candy.
"Wanna try one?" he asked.
"Um, sure." Rose said, taking it.
"No!" Thorn and Kyle said.
The Jinn's venom was on the rock candy. Rose ate the candy.
"Um, is it supposed to taste like that?" Rose asked.
She had suffered no ill effects from eating the Jinn's venom.
Thorn, Kyle, Quartz, and Aurum exchanged looks.
That night, Midnight met with Thorn and Kyle.
"Rose is the Jinn." Midnight said.
"How is that possible?" Kyle asked.
"No, she must be immune to the venom somehow." Thorn said.
"No, that's impossible." Midnight said. "I have never heard of someone who can be immune to Jinn venom."
"She can't be the Jinn..." Thorn said.
Honey exited the training room. She went into Nails' office.
"What are you doing?" Honey asked.
"I'm doing some reading." Nails replied. "Can I help you?"
"I was wondering if you knew anything that would help amnesia." Honey said.
Daisy was researching healing techniques in the library, while Cocoa was about to talk to Rose.
"Rose," Alexandria said,"Commander Tower would like to see you."
Later, Thorn went to talk to Noon.
"We should have started training earlier." Noon said. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's fine." Thorn told him. "I've been studying the spells in the Chaos Chronicles."
"In order to use magic, you have to be completely in tune with yourself." Noon explained.
"But I've used magic before." Thorn said.
"Magic can be triggered by mystic artifacts, such as charms." Noon said. "Or by your emotions."
"Like when I was angry in Station Square, I levitated and a wind surged around me." Thorn said.
"What were you thinking about?" Noon asked.
"A bad memory..." Thorn said.
"The only way to help is to talk about it." Noon told her.
Thorn looked hesitant, but then nodded. "Okay."
Commander Tower welcomed Rose into his office.
"Hello Rose." Commander Tower said.
"I think it is time for you to learn of your true lineage."
