This exam is to determine if Jonas Niels, age 17, will be accepted as a State Alchemist. Any military, especially other State Alchemists, are invited to observe the exam and help reach the final decision.
As the day came for the next Alchemy Exam, Roy Mustang could not have felt more old - how many of these exams had he held witness to at this point? He had only missed a few since he had been qualified as a State Alchemist himself, and those had been when he had stationed himself in the Northern Territories shortly after the loss of his left eye. However, upon returning to Central once again, he had made a point of always being one of the people in observance, and one of those who determined whether or not an aspiring alchemist had what it took to become certified as a dog of the military - a state alchemist. And now that he had the title of Fuhrer, his opinion on the matter held even more weight than it had previously. But that did not make him feel any younger.
As Roy entered the room for the examination itself, he heard the other occupants fall into their respectful silence, and he smirked to himself a bit. Although he had promised both himself, and those closest to him, that he would never let the power of his title get to his head, lest he begin to make decisions for himself rather than for the people - he could not help but take a bit of smug satisfaction in moments like this one. He walked up the centre of the room, holding himself high, and giving curt nods to the few faces of people that he considered himself on a friendly level with, before taking his position standing in the front of the room, centred on everyone else.
"Bring in the hopeful," Roy's voice echoed in the overall silence of the room, his tone confident and strong - he was a natural leader, and was more than willing to admit that to himself. His eye narrowed on the doorway as he waited to see the face of the new puppy, his hands folded casually behind his back, though he held himself high, his shoulders locked and knees locked. An alchemy exam was always proved to be an interesting day - and it was better than being coped up in his office with nothing but his paperwork for company.

Katsura found herself once again wandering the halls of Central Headquarters. This time, two things were different from last time; one, she was going to make the stupid pighead who kept yelling at her about her screw ups (meaning the general she was supposed to report to) that she actually had done something, and he would be forced to say that she was right, which would all but make her ecstatic. The thought of it made her clench her fists so she wouldn't grin like an idiot. Who would've thought that the 'stupid kid'- as the general called her frequently- would have done something worthwhile, and not only that, but discovered a homunculous... Maybe she would keep that second thing to herself for a little while. Realizing that she was yet again not thinking about where she was going, she found herself on a staircase which was angled towards a large open space, which instantly made a calm smile spread across her face, despite her fist clenching. She was looking at the place where alchemists would compete in the third part of the exam to become a state alchemist. She remembered the day that she had awed them by making large clouds and gasses in the air, but really nothing but a pretty show. Sure it had made her look like an extremely talented alchemist, but truthfully, she wasn't even sure if she deserved to be chosen. She meandered down the stairs, the opposite direction of the general's office, but the general could wait. He was probably busy yelling at another alchemist right now anyway, and she liked how quiet it was here. Not even a bug could have gotten by without her noticing, and definitely not important officers who would look at her as if she was a bug they were about to step on. A small buzzing noise caught her attention. As she walked down, it grew louder. Curious to find out what this commotion was, she followed it to a small wooden door. Peeking in, she could see many people placed around the room and instantly recognized the nervous looks on their faces. She had seen some of the same people when she had become a state alchemist last year, probably coming back to try again. Stepping into the room, she made her way across the floor to the area where some other state alchemists were sitting or standing. She didn't recognize any of them, but when they glanced at her with an annoyed look, she was sure that she had done something sometime to make them mad. The room went silent as a person walked in. Katsura's view was blocked by several taller alchemists, but she immediately knew who he was and wished that she had just gone to the general's office. Even if he notices you're here, he's got a job to do so he won't say anything she constantly reminded herself. Keeping her flickering gaze off the front of the room, her eyes settled on one young alchemist. He had dazzlingly blue eyes and jet black hair, a sharp contrast to his pale skin. He seemed to have an air of confidence, not as nervous at the others. ((OMG I got an amazing idea for something, can I control one of the auditioning alchemists? It has nothing whatsoever to do with this but it would be really funny )) ((whoops... I didn't think it would be that long, sorry! ))

Anthony was sitting down on a chair looking at his sword. He looked at it in many different angles, he was trying to see how it would shine. He looked at some more on his face looked as he was trying to figure something out. Two guards were walking by the door talking, Anthony was able to hear that a alchemy exam was starting at this moment. Anthony then sheathed his sword, and walked out the door.
He would always go to a exam if he ever had the time to, or remembered to. He liked to observe them, because it would remind him of his exam day, and to see how the new alchemists are. It would take him about a minute to reach the room. On the walk he was able to hear the shuffle of papers, and the sounds of footsteps. Since he had time he looked out the window, observing the people outside. He sighed then continued his walk.
He had arrived in the room, and walked toward the observation area. He found a place to stand, and stood there. He was next to a girl a little older than he was, the first thing he noticed was the auto mail hand she had. He looked at her face, and saw that she looked slightly nervous, or was trying to calm her self down. He looked at the alchemist who would be tested. He looked at him noticing he was not nervous at all. Anthony then got a slight smile, "This will be interesting.", he thought to himself.

Jonas was in the room before where he would be evaluated. It was large.. Yet it felt comforting...and yet he felt more nervous than ever before.. "its gonna be ok, you can do this, dont blow your chance.." Jonas kept murmering to himself. His thoughts wasnt concentrated, he felt nervous. At a point he realised it and took a deep breath "in....out... ok im rdy" he whispered to himself, he looked around him. There where alot of other people here... He wondered if he would even have a chance... Of course he would!!!! He just had to build up the confidence....
Jonas kept his back straight to avoid looking week, even thou he wasnt very big and didnt seem like he would stand a chance... Yet... He felt that if he just tried hard enough he would succed, he... He suddenly felt a big boost of confidence, perfect! He smiled a bit..
"bring in the hopeful" He heard and took a deep breath "this is it.." He walked up as he was required to... As he went into the room he could feel the stares of other people, it didnt bother him the slightest he was used to performing on the street with alchemism. So this was nothing, as he where at the leader of the state alchemist... Roy... The fire alchemist he made a short salute as you usually did when near a higher ranked.
Jonas could feel the sudden pressure on him when he was done saluting but tried to shake the feeling away by saying "Jonas Niels here sir!" he tried to keep his back straight. He wanted to become a state alchemist so bad, he simply HAD to succed. Again the confidence returned to him, like a wave comming and going... *mental note to self: dont. Freaking. Screw. This. Up.* He thought to himself. (danm you guys write alot... I LOVE IT, used to small posters >.< so sorry if my first few posts seems small)

[OOC :: Okay, I'm glad to see we are gathering an audience - just please remember to be certain that Niels and myself are always given the chance to respond to one another - aka, Niels - Katsura - Niels is not going to work, unless the circumstances deem it necessary. However, Roy - Niels - Katsura - Roy - Anthony - Niels - Roy - etc is fine. I hope that makes sense. Katsura - if you wish to play another alchemist in the exam simply to give Niels some competition, that is acceptable - just do not devote more time to this character than to your own, and make sure that your writing as the other alchemist is clearly marked so no one gets confused, and do not steal the show from the one that this is for with a non-player character. Thanks guys. Let's keep things interesting and not just over in one round, shall we?]
Roy subtly glanced around at the gathering crowd - alchemy exams tended to draw audiences, even those who were not actually judging the new hopefuls that were competing. Most of those present were other certified state alchemists, and he was certain that many of them were probably reliving this day for themselves, especially the younger ones it had happened to most recently. For a moment, he thought he caught a glance of that Air Alchemist he had been dealing with a few weeks previously, but he did not put any real effort into searching for her - he still felt wounded to think of the way she had brushed him off so easily, which only made him feel older, and that was not what he needed to be concentrating on at the moment. Even Roy Mustang knew when it was time to focus.
When the large doors at the opposite end of the room opened again, Roy knew that this time it was to let in the new recruits. His dark eye flicked between each of them, lingering only briefly on their features as he curiously considered them for a few moments before moving on to the next. He had heard good things specifically about one of them, a boy by the name of Niels, but was uncertain which of these was him. Though, if the rumours were true about how he had excelled at the first two portions of the alchemy exam, Roy was certain that it would become apparent to him soon which one this boy was.
When all of them were in a line before him, and had given the proper salute, Roy gave a quick salute back before beginning to speak. "This is the final part of your alchemy exam, the last step you have to take towards becoming a certified state alchemist and a member of the military," again, Roy's voice was bold, confident, and his face was set in a determined manner, "And your last chance to impress those of us with the power to give you that title. Each of you has been preparing all of your lives for this day, but only one of you will taste success."
Roy paused then, allowing the echo from his words to die out in the building, and the meaning of what he was saying to sink into the minds of each of the people standing before him. He quickly studied their faces again, looking for any sort of betraying expression, wondering what they were thinking. "You will each give an example of your abilities, one at a time. Remember - you are trying to impress us. Don't be the one that disappoints."

[OOC: sorry i wasnt online and posting yesterday, but i was at my grandpas 60th birthday, and i didnt get any time to get near a pc]
Jonas was standing in the line with the other people, all wanted to become alchemists of the state, but he still felt that if he tried his best he would succed... He looked around the room without moving his head to get a glance more at the room. He could see that that there where minimum 2 spectators except the fire alchemist himself...
*ok.. I seem to be. Number.. hmm.. 5?* He sighed slightly, both relief and a bit of dissapointment. He looked a bit on his clothes, he was dressed for working.. Some normal pants a black t shirt.
He looked around in the room and suddenly it hit him... What about materials.. Would it be brought here, becouse he only had about half a litress of water on him... Danmit... This was not gonna end good if he didnt get water...
He shacked the danmed feeling of fright off and took another deep breath... Surely the state would have thought of this stuff... So no problem...
man the tension was high in the room. Some where sweating while others was biting their lips. Some thou seemed like they had been trying for long, and the stress you usually felt at this thing was totally gone.
"You will each give an example of your abilities, one at a time. Remember - you are trying to impress us. Don't be the one that disappoints." he heard and instantly his back straightned as much as it could for the next few seconds. He looked at the first alchemist going up to the fire alchemist... he swallowed a bit of spit *ok lets see what he can do..* he thought for himself before taking a deep breath convinsing himself he would do fine...
[OOC: sorry my shortness got hit by sudden writers block, also if Roy or someone else could do the npc' ing for the other alchemists in the room... Since it would be weird if i had too xD.]

[OOC :: Okay, I am going to take on one NPC in this post, the first one stepping up to try his luck at being certified. That will leave THREE MORE NPCs up for grabs by any other military members that want to make a post. Same rules apply that I laid out for Katsura - feel free to have fun with it, and make a nice post, just make sure it is clearly marked as an NPC action, or do it like I am going to from the POV of your character just watching and god-moding the NPC a bit (either way is acceptable) and do not steal an unfair amount of attention from Niels. Anyone feel free to react/post characters' thoughts/whatever you want in between these, Niels included. Thanks guys, have fun with it!]
Roy smirked a bit as he saw the nervous looks crossing the people standing before him. He would never admit to having been nervous before his own alchemy exam, rather choosing to remember the day as him being the most confident one there, his smile never fading in his own self-confidence as he stepped up and impressed everyone present with his obviously strong control over the element of fire, never worrying for one second whether or not he would be accepted. Yes, that was a much more 'Roy Mustang' way to remember the day, and he refused to ever consider that the truth may have not been exactly like that.
He gave a simple nod towards the first boy that stepped up - a thin boy with a shock of ginger hair on his head that managed to actually block most of his bright green eyes from view, though they still managed to stare widely up to meet Roy's own eyes for a few moments before they looked back to the floor once more. As Roy took in the smattering of freckles across his entire face, he wondered just how old this kid actually was - but then, kids had proven on more than one occasion that they could be just as good, if not better, than adults, so he tried to not make a judgement based on the boy's age. After all, if the ginger boy had made it this far, he had to have some level of skill.
After clearing his throat a bit to prompt the boy to actually make an action, Roy watched him snap to attention, giving a quick salute before turning to the pile of various things that had been brought in for material - mostly just anything that had been found in disuse around Central, nothing really significant or useful. It was part of the final test, making something from basically nothing. Roy watched the boy's shoulders rise and fall in a deep breath as he approached the 'junk,' pulling out a few buckets, a broom, and a couple of rocks. He placed them in the positions he wished as the room watched in silence, and Roy picked up on the boy's shaking hands. He frowned a bit - nervousness was not something that would be good in the military, but then, perhaps it was just because he was going first. Only time would tell.
Finally, the ginger boy pulled out a sheet of paper, quickly sketching his transmutation circle on it while obviously using his arm to hide the drawing itself from the rest of the room, showing a sign of his young age. There was a bright flash in the room, and then Roy's eyes fell on...could it be? Quite frankly, it looked like a statue of well...himself! Roy's frown instantly turned into a grin for a moment, his self-confidence and arrogance getting the best of him for a moment, but he quickly returned his face to an expressionless one as scattered applause went through the room. The boy obviously had done a bit of research about the Fuhrer before he had come, but Roy was not certain whether he was happy about what points of his personality the boy had picked up on or not... "Unique idea," were Roy's only words in response.
As the statue was moved out of the way, Roy's attention turned to the next person in line, giving them a nod to say it was now their turn.

Katsura couldn't help but smile at the first alchemist. He had certainly known how to please, if only she had known that trick when she first met the general who was supposed to be in charge of her. She quickly glanced up at the fuhrer and caught him grinning for a few moments. figures. She thought, and rested her eyes on the second alchemist. Of all the alchemists, the second one was the only one with any hint of a smile on his face, but even he didn't look happy. It was more the air of arrogance that made him appear less nervous than the rest, or so she assumed.
The young alchemist clumsily stepped forward and pulled out a piece of chalk. With a failed flourish, he dropped the chalk, but then quickly picked it back up and drew a transmutation circle on the ground. Katsura held back a snicker, which unfortunately escaped her lips anyway. The kid looked back at her and... winked. She blinked in surprise a few times and then stared at the kid, watching what he would do next. He put his hands on his transmutation circle and a chunk of rock shot up from the ground. Not that big, but still slightly impressive. Peering around the alchemist in front of her, an annoyed expression immediately formed on her face as she saw the shape of the chunk of rock. A heart, how original. It took every ounce of self control she had not to scream at the kid or run over and punch him, but somehow she managed. With that one out of the way, it left two more before the one she had came to see would attempt.

Anthony was impressed at the first alchemist, he chuckled a bit when he made the statue. However for the second alchemist he saw him wink at the girl. He felt somewhat irritate for some reason, when he made the heart he felt even more irritated, he clenched his fist tightly. He wished he could just run up to him, and cut him down. He shook the feeling off, and watched the third alchemist come up.
The third alchemist looked extremely nervous, his whole body was shaking with fear. He stepped up, he took a chalk out of his pocket with his hands shaking, it would seem as he could drop it anytime. He stopped walking and he was taking deep breaths. He started making his circle on the ground, it took him a bit of time for he had messed up many times and had to fix it. When he finally made his circle, he took even more deep breaths this time.
He put his hand on the circle, and sword rose from the ground which he grabbed. He moved and swung it around, it looked however that the weight was overwhelming him. The alchemist raised the sword over his head he lost control and fell on his back his head hitting the floor. Anthony tried his best to restrain himself from laughing, or else he'll attract too much attention. He knew he was a good alchemist but should have chosen to do something else for the test.

[OOC: i guess ill do the 4th then Roy or someone make the last alchemist and ill do Niels =P]
it was now the 4th alchemist turn, so far only one of the alchemist seemed to have done anything major... The heart was simply not impressive and to normal. And the sword was ok, but the weilder was a biiit to nervous to swing it well enough. He felt he had a chance, he didnt like to brag but compared to those he was gonna win...
The 4th alchemist was a guy with burning red eyes that hid under some medium sized sunglasses, he had a unlight smoke in his mouth and without being very nervous he went up with his pair of chalk, drew his circle and placed... a lighter in the middle, he light it and clapped his hands performing the transmutation. The fire grew very big and looked slightly like it had a mouth it slowly went to his head. it was gonna light his smoke, it was ready to light it, but instead of lighting it, it blew a bit to much fire at his face. He instantly fell over and held his hands to his head, nothing major but he had gotten some minor burn wounds on his lips. He looked ashamed of how it had gone.
Jonas had felt tence when he saw how well the 4th alchemist was doing, but got a smile on his face as soon as he failed...
*you still have a chance!* he thought, now was only the 5th one left.... He wondered what he was gonna do...
[[OOC:why...must...you...go... in..aktive!?!]]

(OOC :: Sorry guys, thought there were only five alchemists INCLUDING Niels, but no worries. I just wasn't expecting to have to come up with another NPC. Anyway, I'm on it. Roy to the rescue! *cough, eye roll, cough*)
Roy visibly yawned as the second alchemist in the line made what appeared to be a giant stone heart out of the ground, covering his mouth absently with a gloved hand. Not only was the young boy practically copying the boy before him by making a statue - and one that was not nearly as impressive in its choice of subjects, in Roy's opinion - but the raven-haired man had also caught the young hopeful's wink towards what he would assume to be a female observer. Such actions had never been impressive to the Flame Alchemist when others did them, and it made his opinion of the boy drop considerably. "Next," he said simply, offering no audible critique.
The next alchemist to go seemed actually more nervous than the first one as he created a sword out of the ground - it was an idea that Roy gave a nod of approval to. Creating a weapon from nothing was a crucial skill in the military, considering the chance of attack was 100% on many occasions, and the boy's alchemy showed that he would be prepared for such an event. However, the corners of Roy's mouth turned down in a frown as the boy failed to wield his own creation - that made it rather useless. "Simply creating without the skill to utilize is not an ability at all. Next," Roy then stated, his voice commanding obedience and attention, though his face had returned to being expressionless as he turned his eyes on the next candidate.
The fourth alchemist seemed to be a man after Roy's own heart as he approached the front of the room with confidence, then began an impressive display with fire. However, the flames soon turned out of control, and blazed into the boy's face. Without changing his expression, Roy quickly snapped his hand, suppressing the fire back into the air instantly before it could damage the boy more than it did. "Again, a lack of control shows that one's ability is nothing more than a party trick to impress a woman," Roy then stated, his single eye narrowed a bit as the boy looked nothing less than ashamed before him. Few could master the element of fire like the Flame Alchemist could, and it seemed that this boy was just another failure in that respect.
Finally, it came time for the next to last hopeful to step forward. Roy's eyes fell on the only girl in the group, her frame small and her demeanour timid, and he realized that he had not even seen her up to that point - it seemed that her smaller body had literally been dwarfed into oblivion by the boys around her. Roy kept his mind focused on what she was doing, forcing him to not consider the fact that she was female to keep his final decision unbiased, a skill that he had been working hard on developing even further since he had become more than just a Colonel. As she walked forward, she slowly began to draw a large transmutation circle around her with a piece of chalk, a task that took several long minutes in which she simply hummed an unknown tune to herself.
Roy watched the girl somewhat impatiently until she finished up her circle, and when her hands touched the design, flowers instantly sprang up all around her, filling the stark room with a fresh scent instantly. Roy's eye quickly scanned the scene, making a quick analysis - it did show that she had an excellent grasp of alchemy, and though flowers were not something that were critical for the military, it was an impressive display all the same; and that was what they were supposed to be doing, wasn't it? "Excellent display of form," he then said, smiling only to himself at his own word choice, giving in to his thoughts for a just a moment before giving his nod towards the final hopeful, the one everyone had been talking about - and following the girl, he was going to have to be impressive indeed.

[oh sorry my bad english then xD]] Jonas looked at the girl, she seemed confident. Even thou she wasnt looking very strong, he had a feeling that this would be the hardest person to overcome... He took a deep breath closed his eyes, and put his mind into a 10 second long meditation before opening them again. He saw the transmutation circle being made, clearly she was gonna create plants..... As she put her hands on the circle he bit his lip. He bleed slightly from biting to hard. Not that it mattered. He closed his eyes again once the flowers where created, how was he gonna surpas that?...Hmm he got hit by a sudden idea... of course! He smiled a bit before she was done and had gotten her evaluation. Jonas looked at Roy, and saw his nod signaling his turn. He felt exstremely secure for a second and took his chalk threw it a bit up in the air and graped it with his hand. *time to do what you do best* He went over to the area with all kinds of thrash... It seemed to have enough... He took a bit of the thrash placing it in the middle, mostly iron and stuff but also what seemed to be old...very old electronic stuff. Like an old radio. He put his chalk to the ground making his circle. It was not a giant one but not a small one either. A pretty decent circle. He looked at all the other people in the room slightly, he felt secure and confident now... *clasp* he clapped his hands placing on the circle [[OOC: mood music, about 30-40 into the song is where im imaginening in my head would be awesome for here www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF4FSmy7LhE ]] The place light up from the transmutation circle. In front of them was something that looked like a cannon, but it had about 40 small pipes instead of one big. Behind it had a small handle and a button. And by the side it had what seemed to be ammunition on a chain...the Amunition was needles clearly made out of ice. Jonas went behind it clapping again, creating some icy needles inside of each pipe. He aime the giant cannon at the flowers. He clicked the button and with a large boom the many ice needles flew off hacking every single flower in its path into bits. when he where done most of the flowers around him was without a flower, as the flower now layed on the ground. He drew a single little circle more. Making the cannon and ice back into iron bars, a few buckets of water, and an old time radio. He stood up again making a short salute before waiting for his evaluation.

Katsura's reactions to most of the alchemists were amusement. She couldn't believe how dumb these kids were to even try. They obviously didn't have any talent for alchemy or hadn't studied hard enough, and it takes both to be an alchemist. Watching the hopefuls made her feel better about her own display of alchemy on the day that she was chosen to be a state alchemist. A look of disgust spread across her face as the young girl alchemist, the only girl in the group, made a bunch of pretty flowers. That was the honestly the most stereotypical thing that Katsura had ever seen a female alchemist do, and she didn't try to hide the fact that she was disgusted at the girl's example of alchemy. It was a science, not a gardening tool. She was a bit jealous, however that this little girl could do plant alchemy and she was still figuring it out, but her attention was drawn to the last alchemist as he stepped up. His display of alchemy was incredibly good, and very, very complicated. Katsura had heard of things like it, but it was obvious that this kid knew what he was doing, and far exceeded the rest. It was obvious who would become the state alchemist.

Roy turned his gaze on the final alchemist, the one that the rumours had been flying around Central about - some boy with supposedly impressive abilities that most people had been taking bets on becoming the next State Alchemist selected. However, though some of his competition had basically opted out as such, he did have a few to have to be more impressive then. And as Roy watched the boy create a rather complicated weapon from several household materials, destroy the flowers created by the female alchemist, and then re-transmute the weapon back into the original materials, he raised an eyebrow. That certainly was pretty good, Roy had to admit.
"Excellently done," Roy stated with a curt nod, before turning his attention back towards the line of other rather defeated looking candidates. Each of them realized that perhaps they should have either practised more or thought their idea through a bit more - it was hard to compete with the last display of clear ability. Roy's gaze then turned to the other alchemists and upper military personnel around him, and saw in their eyes and from their nods that their opinions were the same as his. He nodded to each in turn, showing his agreement, before stepping down from the platform he had been observing from to approach the last candidate.
"Congratulations, you shall be accepted as the next State Alchemist," Roy stated clearly and confidently, so that everyone in the room could easily hear him and understand what he was saying - this was important, after all. "Welcome to the service of the Amestris military. When the state needs you, be ready to respond." Roy then extended a hand towards the young man in congratulations, the slightest of smiles playing across his face as he imagined just what kind of reputation this new alchemist was going to create. He remembered the day that Edward Elric had been accepted as a state alchemist - and look at what that young boy had done. Roy was always waiting for the next person to at least attempt to impress him with their abilities.
The position of State Alchemist of course came with its benefits, such as title, power, and access to the best resources on alchemy in the country. But this boy was now a dog of the military, as the coined phrase so often reminded them, and Roy hoped he would be up to the task - a State Alchemist was pointless if they were too weak when it came to their time to serve the military.

Jonas could almost feel the happiness boiling inside of him, like he where going to explode... Even though he had maybe overdone it. He looked around where he had been shooting short, and could see the floor had taken minimal damagde.
*YOU DID IT YOU DID IT!* he screamed inside his own head, he was suppresing a large smile, it looked a bit funny but it went over quickly as Roy.. The fire alchemist.. His leader turned around.
Jonas heard Roy. "congratulations, you shall be accepted as the next state alchemist, Welcome to the service of the amestris military. When the state needs you, be ready to respond." He took roys hand and shaked it slightly as he where supposed to. He instantly did a short salute saying "i promise i wont let you down sir!"
he felt a large pressure going off his shoulders, leaving him with a bit of rubber legs, it couldnt be seen but boy could it be felt... Now he where and alchemist of the state, what was the first mission gonna be he wondered. He knew the first thing he would do was look up on the big libary they had, maybe find something about eletronics and ice alchemism.
*a good ending on a good day* he thought.
[[guessing that now its over and we one by one leave???]]
[[EDIT]]
Jonas did a short salute before he turned around and left. He would have his papers sent to him by mail, and then he would just have to wait before he got his first mission. Until then he could be looking into the books of the state libary. *i wonder what my title will become hehe* He thought for himself with a slight smile.
[[OUT]] [[OOC: was a nice thread =) ]]
