In the training room the five monsters took a moment to open their status windows and swaggle, teaching NAVI the trick to using a dungeon monster interface.

“Oh this is definitely new. And so is the training room by the look of it. It actually has things to train with,” Delphi says. Delphi, seeing the nearest training dummy, decides to experiment with their new ability. Releasing a {Brutal Uppercut} a loud crunch fills the stone room. Feeling proud but not satisfied Delphi takes a {Brawlers Stance} then releases {Brutal Uppercut} this time relieving the training dummy of its head.
Now that’s a true boss’s power. Delphi says with glee.

“Aww I don’t have any abilities, lame, how am I supposed to fight?” NAVI whines.

“Okay lets start with the cool one prepare for my wrath you stupid dummy [Wisp Fire]. NAVI launches a ghostly black flame at the dummy as it hits it fades away. “Huh it’s not doing anything but glowing? Did I do it wrong?” NAVI says.
“What does the spell say?” Swaggle asks.
“A Lot of stuff that I understand but don’t know how I understand and oh it hurts souls,” NAVI says while rechecking her screen.
“Well that spell can’t hurt Bobbi then,” Hooknose says.
“I will remember that,” Bobbi says, pointing menacingly at Hooknose.
“Well easy just fire it at Delphi,” Swaggle says.
“Why me?” Asks Delphi.
Because you already broke your dummy, and tried your new ability out. Plus do you really think NAVI is going to kill you?”
“No, fine, do your worst,” Delphi says.
“Yeah, a screaming target. Here I go [Wisp Fire].”
A ghostly black flame launches at Delphi latching on and begins to slowly spread.
“Holy Frack this feels weird, and is starting to hurt how do I put it out?” Delphi Clacks.
“I don’t know, next spell [Faerie Lights].”
A blast of multi colour sparkles launches at Delphi Covering Delphi and a portion of the area in in a multitude of colours.
“Oh pretty, burn Delphi again,” Bobbi says.
“That is a lot of sparkles,” Hooknose says.
“It’s party time!” Swaggle yells.
“It’s in my sockets and I don’t like it!” Delphi complains.
“I love magic, it’s so cool. Swaggle what did you get?” NAVI asks.
“Hmmm let me take a look,” Swaggle says.

As Swaggle walks within range of his targets a wide grin broadens across his face as he unleashes {Shocking Arc}. A bolt of electricity arcs from Swaggles pointed fringer into the dummy and begins arcing into the nearby dummies filling the air with crackling sounds. “What did I get? Muhahaha! Ultimate power!” Swaggle says as he begins to laugh maniacally.
“I will go next once you're done having your moment of temporary insanity,” Hooknose says.
“Oh my bad. Yeah you go ahead,” Swaggle replies.
“Thank you. Now let's see what's new.”

[Hero’s Spin] Hooknose lowers his body while bringing his shield close to his Chest extending his sword out and back he then spins with a fury three times within a second taking large chunks out of the dummy.
“That will take some getting used to, I think I might throw up,” Hooknose says heaving.
“Heh your training consists of trying not to puke. Do you have the energy to move aside for me? Or are you going to be my target?” Bobbi asks with a wicked grin.
“Just give me a moment you psychopath,” Hooknose says, taking his time to move away.
“Flattery will get you nowhere, and everywhere, like over there or there maybe on the ceiling,” Bobbi says.
“Somebody is cranky,” NAVI comments.
“Bobbi doesn’t like going last,” Delphi elaborates.
“Then why is she?” NAVI asks.
“Because it’s funny,” Swaggle says.
“Finally! What new powers do I have?” Bobbi says.
“You know you could have read them while you waited,” Hooknose says.
“Yes but reading something ruins the surprise and I wouldn't be able to use it unless you nitwits want to be the dummies I know you to be, so shush. Where was I, oh yes new powers.”

More roots sprout from underneath another dummy this time they latch around the throat and begin strangling it. Hmmm if only they were alive to scream and grasp for air oh well,” Bobbi says.
“Okay Bobbi just got alot scarier,” Swaggle says.
“Agreed,”
