Dimensional Descent

A stunned sort of silence gripped the young geniuses, their eyes suddenly all focusing on the Amethyst Token vibrating in the ceiling. They had never thought that such a thing would happen, let alone in this sort of situation.

Their body seemed to lengthen into a thin string, their body breaking the laws of physics and reaching warp speeds.
