"Very good Toukichirou. I am pleased to see that my trust in you has not been misplaced. Now proceed unto the next examination room. As for you Six; You are relieved of duty and may return to your assigned position prior to entering into my domain." Again, he waits until the final echoes of his voice begins to fade before allowing the door to open.
This third room is again much the same as the last two, but instead of a young woman for Dredan to mistake for a man or a strange looking machine, there were three tables, each with a different colored cube placed on them.
Sitting atop each table was a small cube. Your eyes flex, and the world shifts into the back, as you focus on one of the cubes... you can see that there is something inside the cube, but without some sort of light reaching inside the box you cannot see what it is.
"Within each of these cubes is an object. Your objective within this test is to attempt to determine which cube contains the keycard which unlocks the door before you. You have ten minutes. Begin the Test."
You quickly cross the room, not wanting to waste any of Doctor Dredan's time, and quickly begin to look over the cubes, trying to feel any real difference between them or their weights or...
Anything that you could use to try and tell which of the cubes is the one to hold the keycard you need to continue onward.
As far as you can tell, each of them is completely the same.
The same weight, the same size, the same shape, the same color even.
There is nothing that is different about them, and even though you can see through them with your new Clairvoyance trick, that really doesn't help because the insides are all...
Wait...
That gives you an idea. You pick up one of the small cubes, and focus on it, allowing it to shift and change in your mind's eye - revealing the completely dark insides.

No, this isn't... That's not what...
That's not it.
At the edge of your mind you feel, you see the silk screen return about you. It ripples and rolls as you think, as you focus...
And you focus harder. Your mind shuts everything else out and the sphere fades again.
Nothing can exist but the cube.
No.
Not even the cube can exist, you have to shut everything out. There can be nothing.
An Empty void.
And like a spark it alights in your mind -
The cube.
Wires at the edges of the cube, spinning through the empty space as they flare and warp until the cube is there in your mind. The cube, and the bookmark shaped thing inside of it.
[-6 EP]
This isn't the cube your looking for. Without a care you toss it aside. It doesn't have what you need.

The next however?
Well, that's a different story.
This time the image flares to life with just a simple thought, the world fading into darkness as the wire-frame model forms in your minds eye.
The cube, and the keycard inside of it.
With the cube in hand, you see the way to open it. A twist and a turn. Then a click, and it splits open, folding away into nothing more than a simple small disk.
"Well... Toukichirou, I happen to find myself to be quite pleasantly surprised that you have not only successfully completed this test, but to have completed it in less than eighty seconds is very good. Now, on to the next testing room." Dredan's voice spills from the Intercom again, and you continue moving, heading to the next room. This room is much the same as the second room - A table with a young man sitting on the other side of it, and a chair for you to sit on.
"Within this room we shall be preforming an examination of your Telepathic capabilities. To assist us is Assistant Six from earlier. Your objective is to gather the information that Assistant Six has which can be inputted on the Number pad by the door in order to open it. The test begins now." However, the person before you - This second Assistant Six is as far as possible from the Assistant six that you had encountered previously.
Instead of a young petite blonde woman, this Assistant Six is a giant of a man, with dark skin and long dyed blue dreadlocks. He stares at with with hard grey eyes.
After a moment where you hoped to gain a little bit more information about what it was that you were expected to do and how to do it, you eventually take a seat.
And you stare at the man, hard. Trying to... You really have no idea what you are trying to do... And given the baffled look on the second sixes face, he does not have any idea other.
"I must say, Toukichirou, I am... somewhat disappointed. But, given the nature of this testing I suppose it is not out of the ordinary that you cannot be successful in all measures. However, your results are... adequate enough for me to let this failure pass. The test has been completed, procede to the Final Testing room. Assistant Six, I expect a fifteen thousand word report on the effects of Toukichirou's Telepathic abilities and how you had successfully resisted them typed up - Size 2, Font Comic Sans. It is due in the next thirty one hours and nineteen minutes, thirty-one seconds." The Doctor drawls out, while staring down at the giant who you left in the room behind you.
After the rather strange test that you had just been a part of, you were actually somewhat releved to see the test waiting for you in the final testing room.
Something simple, something expected.
Something that you might even call ordinary, where it not a test for supernatural psychic powers.
There, before you is a Protractor.
"After your lackluster showing during the previous examination, I sincerely hope that you are able to redeem yourself here Toukichirou. This Examination is going to be the simplest and most straightforward of all the tests that you have been given up to this point. I shall speak a degree over the intercom, and without touching the Protractor, you objective is to shift and adjust the angle of the device. Now... Let us start off rather simply shall we? Alter the angle of the Protractor to Forty five degrees."
You take a deep breath, trying to focus on the arm of the protractor without having it shift into your Clairvoyant sight... but...
"Doctor...?" You speak up for the first time that it has not been related to the tests. "Is there any point to this? I already have an ability... I'm Clairvoyant, aren't I?"
"Tch," Dredan begins, but it's not nearly as... angry as he normally sounds when he does that. "Under normal circumstances, I would say yes, Toukichirou, but this time is not a normal circumstance, so simply do as I instruct."
"Yes sir." You reply meekly. You don't mean to be as... Pliable to his words, but he is the man who has pretty much raised you over the last few years and he isn't an easy person to get along with. Combine that with your polite upbringing and he simply walks all over you.
Then again, he seems to pretty much just walk all over everyone.
Regardless, you take a moment, breathing deep and trying to clear your mind. You focus on the arm of the Protractor.
You are going to make it move. You are going to shift it.
move
With clenched teeth and a squinted gaze you draw more of your mind at the arm.
Move
MOVE
You really don't want to get Dredan any angrier than he already is, so
MOVE ALREADY!
!

For a brief moment you feel something. A shift and a warp at the edge of your mind, the tips of your sight, and with a CLUNK!, the Protractor flipped on it's side.
And slowly began to slide away from you, scrapping against the table before falling backwards and crashing against the wall, where it stayed, pressed against the wall.
"Hmmm..." Dredan began, "That is not what you had been instructed to do Toukichirou. However... I see... You may leave. It will take time for me to go over the data that you have generated. You may expect your System Scan card to be delivered to your door tonight."
Right... So the System Scan is over for now...
What should you do? it's only about 3, and...
Given the weirdness of what just happened you probably aren't going to have summer classes...
But anyways!
[ ] Go Shopping? You only have about 80 bucks left, but you should be able to go see a movie and get something to eat for that much
[ ] Go check up on the Binary Blades
[ ] Go home and take a nap, this was exhausting
[ ] Oh hey, it's Saten-San and Uiharu-San and two others... Maybe you should go say hi
[ ] Hmm... Maybe you should go check Touma's house, that giant priest was talking about getting his books back.
[ ] Or do something else, that's a great idea too...
