Personal Power Class with Mr. Zed.

"Yes, we can speak after class,"
"Actually, we should work with this. Right now. We can finish our introductions up quickly, but from there, I have a perfect idea for a lesson - we'll work on what I had planned for today tomorrow."

Jason felt relieved. 'Next time I'll just cover my ears.......I bet I made a really bad impression on some people here.' Jason zoned out for a couple of seconds.

"I want everyone to move the desks to the side of the room. Just put them wherever; I'll move them back after class. I want you to find a place in the room where you feel most comfortable. It has to be somewhere where you can sit down."

The sudden screeching sound of moving tables made Jason "wake up". Jason turned his head and watched everyone moving their desks aside, he imitated them and pushed his own desk towards the wall whilst Mr. Zed began speaking again. And as soon as Mr. Zed said the word "meditation", Jason turned around in surprise and quickly sat at the back-end of the class. 'If meditation is the answer, I'll be able to control my powers in no-time!' Jason thought excitedly whilst Mr. Zed taught everyone how to meditate. Jason didn't listen, as he had his own techniques to concentrate and meditate. Although he was a bit rusty and not as flexible as he used to be, Jason kneeled on his lower legs and tucked his feet under his buttocks, pointing his toes backwards. He let his hands rest on his knees.

Jason watched as others were positioning themselves, one girl in particularly. The girl rested on her elbows while her toes touched her head. It was quite amusing to watch her, maybe even memorizing her position and test it out sometime. It sure was interesting to watch everybody positioning themselves, but Jason was eager to meditate. He turned his head so it will face the wall ahead of him and inhaled deeply from his nose, exhaling from his mouth.

It was a matter of a second or two. Jason was already in his own world. Though he couldn't last for long and as soon as he opened his eyes Mr. Zed began speaking once again.

"Alright. I hate to break into your meditation now, but class is almost over. We're going to stop here for now. I am going to assign you homework, but I promise it's easy. All I ask of you to do, is to find a meditation position that is most comfortable for you. And I want you to meditate for as long as you feel necessary, but no less than 10 minutes. Then, write a small journal entry about how you feel afterward. Journals can be found on the last bookshelf in the back of the room. Grab one before you leave..."
"Class will be over in 5 minutes anyway, so you can all talk for now..."

Jason sighed and slowly pushed himself off the floor, slightly stretching his legs while doing so. He then walked over towards the bookshelf, which was actually very close to him, and grabbed one of the journals that were placed there. Others have also come to grab a journal, so Jason quickly walked away from the bookshelf. He pulled out his class schedule and checked where he needs to be when the current class will end. 'Swimming.....There's no way I'm going to screw up there......' He thought.

Period two. Great Hall.

Jason folded the schedule and placed it back inside his pocket. The bell rang, noting everyone that the current class is over and that it's now period two. Jason set off out of the room and made his way through the hallway, down the stairs until he reached the first floor. He then walked outside of the building and stopped in his place. 'Shit. Where's the pool?' Jason leaned a bit forwards and searched for a swimming pool. 'Crap. I'll go back to the hall and ask the people passing there....' Jason walked back inside the building and stood at the center, waiting for someone to pass by.
