She felt like she was accomplishing something and that made her fell proud.\n\nshe couldn't remember the last time she bad felt proud about anything. As she finished a few reps, she laid back, stretching out, smiling.\n\n---\n\nPhoebe rose with her alarm, and after getting ready, went for her customary jog.

Yet it was a step she'd gladly take.\n\nShe showered when she got back to her dorm then heading to the cafeteria for breakfast\n\n---\n\nConnor woke in the morning, and checked his phone. Unsure if Kijani would be up, but wanting to check how she was after receiving her text last night about being unwell, he showered and dressed, forgoing breakfast for the time being, he headed over to the girls downs, and knocked on her door, when no answer came, he didn't worry, figuring she was out and about somewhere.

As he drives toward the school, far faster than he reasonably should, Anthony says to himself, \"My father's death will surely be all over the news by now, which will most likely cause a lot of people to ask questions. How do I want to play this? As the obviously shaken and traumatized son or as the stoic heir who's putting on a brave face while carrying on his father's legacy? I know for a fact that I can't make to any major changes to LexCorp for a while, otherwise people will become suspicious, if they're not already. I should probably continue funding the Academy and I'll also need to find someone worthy of managing LexCorp until I'm ready to take the reins.\"\n\nSoon enough, Anthony is pulling into the Academy parking lot, and he's made a decision.*\"I'll put on the appearance of stoicism, but I'll also shed a few tears if anyone asks too many questions or if they seem sincerely empathetic.\"*Assuming the character he had created in his head, Anthony enters the main building of the Academy and begins looking for Connor.", "username": "knight125", "char_name": null }, { "text": "\" He was never there for me.

Another disturbing news segment. \"um. I'd be happy just working in a garage, inventing and creating. The money is a plus side to that-I can have whatever materials I want\" He said, \"But it isn't really something i think about\"\n\nHe didn't think that anyone on the outside could get into LexCorp. It had to be an inside job. He listened to the announcement over the speaker system, supposed that was the right thing to do, attended the funeral of one of the greatest masterminds. Despite the fact that he had evil tendencies of taking over the world, Connor had admired Lex Luther. But then again, Connor admired many businessmen. It was a tough world out there in the business world, and anyone who could make it, deserved to be respected.\n\n\"Did you know, I actually created an online company, providing blueprints to some wannabe builders when I was 13? They'd tell me their ideas, I'd make them better, I'd get some ideas myself out of it, and I provided the blueprints\" Connor said, \"For a cost. I've never needed my fathers money, but its nice to know its there. I never provided anything dangerous, just things that people think they need\" He smiled slightly, \"I once made blueprints for a mechanical dog for a man. He said it was for his daughter who was sick, and desperately wanted a dog, but couldn't have a real one. I made the dog, and even delivered it without cost\"\n\nHe blinked as Gretchen came passed, and punched Flood in the face. \"Well, clearly you've ticked her off\" He said politely, pushing his tray away, a cookie in hand, \"I'm going to start heading to gym\" He said to Flood, \"before Gretchen decides she wants to punch someone else, and being in your vicinity might just be dangerous with her around as she seems to have taken an odd liking to you, in the fact that she likes to hit you\" He stood, starting out of the cafeteria, deep in thought.\n\nWhat was going on in the world? Was the school the best place to be? Wouldn't it be better to just be out there, trying to prevent things from happening? He had seen on the news Sue, as Echo of course, and it seemed better then learning in here. He knew he had a long way to go before being ready, but nothing was better than experience. He shrugged, finishing his cookie, brushing off his hands, looking about. He had noted who had come and gone in the cafeteria, but he hadn't seen Kijani. Now he was starting to worry, and he changed directions, moving through the main building to head to the girls dorms, stopping when he saw Anthony.\n\nConnor disliked Anthony, but there was a grudging respect there. Not that he would ever tell Anthony that. Still, Connor disliked the way Anthony just seemed to dismiss most of them as useless. And Connor thought he'd stop at nothing to get what he wanted. So he was always wary of Anthony, and not just for that. In his suit, Connor wasn't susceptible to Anthony's powers. Outside of his suit, he was. He wondered if there was some way of creating something that would keep him safe at all times from things like that. He pondered that as he walked towards Anthony.\n\nHe stopped, and was able to sincerely say, \" I'm sorry for your father's death. It must be a bit of a shock, him being murdered in his own building. I'm surprised you came today\"\n\nAnd that puzzled Connor. Surely if your father had been killed, you wouldn't go to school. There would be numerous things to take care off, and you'd be devastated. Well, Anthony had always been a bit cold. Still...his mind went back to the News segment, and the 'found with a fatal shot to the head' didn't match the Thanatos killings. Why would Thanatos suddenly change how he killed? Surely he wasn't the only one to notice this. It seemed to Connor that someone was trying to make it seem like Thanatos had been the attacker, but had forgot that one detail.\n\nHe waited for a reply from Anthony.", "username": "MarshiestMallow", "char_name": "Phoebe" }, { "text": "For a moment, Anthony's somber mask falters and a look of pure grief peeks through the cracks, but they're soon patched back up. \"You've no idea,\" he says quietly. \"The first thing I do every morning after waking up is turn on the news.

Secondly, I really need to talk to our fearless leader, Mr. Wayne. Finally, you and I need to talk. He rests a hand on Connor's shoulder and says with a look of regret, \"I need your help; it's about Kijani.\"\n\n---\n\nAfter waking up and letting out a colossal yawn, John quickly gets dressed and brushes his teeth, then makes his way to the weight room.

If she's hurt...\" He trailed off, leaving the threat implied, even though he wasn't sure Anthony had anything to do with this, but it was pretty plausible that he did, if he knew that Kijani was in trouble.\n\nHe refused to let Anthony see how Connor's own thoughts, that Kijani was hurt, that something terrible had happened to her, effected him.

On our way back to the Academy, my limo was over run by at least a dozen men armed with shotguns, body armor, and gas masks.

Still, he would try.\n\n---\n\nPhoebe looked up at the sound of a commotion, seeing someone butchering a tree. She winced, rising to go over and restore the tree to its former state, watching as the branches regrew. Satisfied, she looked about for the student, seeing the new girl. Well, the newest girl.

[ { "text": "Collab Final \n\n\n\n**Knight**\n\n*\"This simpleton travels in a mobile arsenal and he doesn't want to kill. Why bother with the weapons?\"* Anthony wonders as he trails behind Connor.\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor glanced passed rooms as they passed them, making his way to the wall, carefully trying to avoid were people were. He wasn't a fool, he knew that it would be better to deal with them now, but instead he worked at the security system to trap them in the rooms they were as he walked, still looking out for any danger. There were always ways around not killing people, but Connor knew sometimes to just could to help but have to kill. When that time came, he would do it. But he wouldn't sneak around a corner and mufder someone, or shoot them while they were unconscious. That wasn't...honorable. It was downright dirty, really.\n\nHe sighed, approaching the wall\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nIt couldn't be heard by normal human ears, but perhaps Ingot could pick up noise through the wall. A faint voice, one that sounded weary... reciting poetry.\n\n*`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves\nDid gyre and gimble in the wabe:\nAll mimsy were the borogoves,\nAnd the mome raths outgrabe.\n\n\"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!\nThe jaws that bite, the claws that catch!\nBeware the Jubjub bird, and shun\nThe frumious Bandersnatch!\"*\n\n**Caits**\nI believe some one is reciting that poem from through the looking glass, sir\" Ignot relayed to Connor, and Connor frowned. It seemed like an odd poem to recite, but then, how would Connor know?\n\nHe looked for a security Panel, but he knew he wouldn't be able to break through it without causing alarm. He could override the security, but that would take time, and someone upstairs was bound to notice.\n\nSo he raised a suited hand into a fist, and smashed the panel there, before doing the same to the wall. Sometimes, brute strength was the only option, and Connor was lucky that the suit enhanced his own strength. In moments, Connor had taken down the wall enough to slip through, and he did so, starting through it.\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nWhen the wall came down and the dust cleared, the metallic table standing up in the middle of the lab became visible. Kijani was strapped to it, and had been reciting poetry and books for hours. It felt like hours, anyway. At the noise, she'd startled, and was surprised to find the movement coming back to her fingers and toes.\n\n\"W-who's there?\" Her voice was hoarse and high pitched\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor never wanted to hear Kijani's voice like that again, and he could feel anger rise to overcome him, but with effort if will, he remained calm. Light bloomed as he made the effort to flip a light on his suit, not that he really needed it, but it was a comfort. \"Kijani\"\n\nNot caring about what Anthony wanted to do, Connor moved swiftly towards her, but wasn't completely foolish as he looked for any signs of security or traps or anything like that. He swallowed, reaching the table, studying the straps before looking to kijani. He let the mask up, \"I'm sorry. I should have been here sooner\"\n\n**Dizzzy**\n\nKijani looked... surprisingly unharmed. Her clothes and hair were a mess, but there was no blood or obvious injury.\n\nThere was something in her eyes, though... like a tiger that had been ripped from the wild and thrown into a circus act. Something... broken.\n\n\"Connor... you're... you're here... how are you here?\"\n\n**Caits**\nConnor seemed to hesitate, unsure of how to reply. He was sure something had happened, and he was sure the root of that was Anthony. But Connor wouldn't be here if Anthony hadn't brought him, hadn't shown him where the place was.\n\nHe grimaced, and said truthfully, \"Anthony brought me\" He said softly, as he began to work at the straps, to loosen them hopefully without hurting Kijani, \"I have no idea what his intentions are, but I'm not going to give him a chance to full fill them without getting you out of here\" he said, as he continued to loosen the straps, hating the look in Kijani's eyes\n\n**Knight**\n\nAnthony listens to the reunion silently, standing in the hall to watch for any oncoming threats. After a few minutes, he calls over his shoulder, \"I hate to interrupt this beautiful moment, but we really should be moving along.\"\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nKijani seemed to be relaxing under Connor's attention, but at Anthony's voice, a layer of sweat broke out on her forehead. She would have gone tense, like a startled animal, but her half paralyzed muscles refused to obey. Instead she shut her eyes, whimpering slightly. The last straps came off, and she more or less crumpled to the ground. Her legs wouldn't support her. \"...I'm sorry, Connor...\"\n\n**Caits**\n\nKijani's reaction to Anthony's voice was all the confirmation Connor needed. Anthony had something to do with why she was here. When she crumed, Connor gently picked her up, turning to Anthony. His expression was hard, and almost unreadable \"I know what you have done, Luther.\" His mask slipped down, with a soft click and Connor started to walk, to get out of there, stepping through the torn down wall, trusting Ignot to watch his back, to make sure Anthony didn't try anything.\n\nHe looked about, and started to the elevator, figuring that as the only way out, besides blasting holes in the roof\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nKijani was leaning against Connor the best she could. The suit was making her edgy- she'd just spent hours lying on cold metal, and warm metal really wasn't that much fun either. \"...but you.. you don't know, Connor. You don't... you don't know anything, and it's all my fault.\"\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor sighed, \"I don't need to know everything, but I have a pretty good guess in any case\" he said, pressing the button for the elevator. \"This isn't your fault. I won't believe that\" He stepped into the elevator, not even looking about to see if Anthony was following, not caring if he was or wasn't \"We can talk when we are out of here\"\n\n**Knight**\n\nAnthony walks behind Connor at a leisurely pace, then says nonchalantly, \"For a so called 'hero-in-training' you don't seem to care very much about the other children and teenagers that are trapped here, undergoing the same horrors that Kijani went through.\"\n\n[/b]Caits[/b]\n\nConnor sighed, \"There's only adults in the rooms here. I'm pretty sure it was just Kinaji. but I shall ask Ignot to look about once more, just in case\" He said, an edge of malice in his tone, which he quickly tried to suppress, even as he quickly looked about again\n\nWhile there were adults in the rooms, banging on the doors, there were no figures as small as children. Not even ones that looked like teenagers. Kijani seemed to be the only one.\n\nConnor relayed this information, \"just the adults I locked in. Now are you going to get in the damned elevator? Because I will leave you behind\" he said, managing to keep his voice neutral this time.\n\n**Knight**\n\nAnthony follows them into the elevator, lost in thought. *\"Where did she move them? Dd I really plan all of this in vain? I suppose I need to try a more direct approach at a later date.\"*\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nKijani was trembling now, her muscles starting to come back to life. She shivered against Connor's metal suit, even though she should have been relatively warm. What was next, now? Who was going to use her next? Anthony certainly planned to do something with her- otherwise he would have just left her. Obviously he was trying to earn some kind of favor; he was bound to pull a 'this was my plan all along'. Even if it was, and he fully intended to rescue her, she was nothing but a pawn. A piece. ...nothing.\n\nA weak sob escaped her throat as she tried to curl up in a tight ball. \"...someone knock me out..\"\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor grimaced, looking to Kijani \"it's going to be okay\" he said softly. Connor waited for the elevator doors to open, turning to Anthony, his voice hard \"you even think about hurting her again, and I will kill you\" as the doors opened, he crossed the floor to the exit with long strides, wanting to be out of this place, to get Kijani safe and to figure out what had been done to her. There was no way in hell that he was going to travel back with Anthony, and besides his suit was faster.\n\nAs soon as he was outside, they set a course for the academy, and took of into the air, kijani held close to him\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nKijani pressed up against him, murmuring near silently. She was desperately trying to will herself into unconsciousness. To do that, she was trying to meditate. Every time she got to a point of quiet within herself, her grandmother's voice would break into the silence, speaking cold words over and over.\n\nTool.\n\nWeapon.\n\nUseless.\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor had no idea what had gone on in that place, but seeing Kijani like she was, it took all his will power to not turn around and tear the place apart. He would get Kijani to safety. That was all that matter right then.\n\nSo Connor took the quickest route back to the school, knowing it wouldn't take long to return.\n\nWhen they did arrive, Connor landed in the grounds, heading in the general direction of the dorms, thinking that after being in a place that smelt like the nurses office, Kijani wouldn't want to go there\n\n**Dizzy**\n\nKijani was mumbling the whole way, and slowly tears started to slide down her cheeks. Somewhere in her mind, the fact that she shouldn't show such weakness rolled through her head, combatted by the hope that maybe her tears would make Connor leave her faster. He liked her because she was cool and sophisticated, right? Seeing her weeping like a child would turn him off. \"Imsorry...\" A jumble of words slipped from her lips. \"Imsorryimsorry...\"\n\n**Caits**\n\nConnor had soon arrived to the girls dorms, heading to Kijani's door, and he had a brief flicker of memory of walking her to her room after the dance. He managed to get the door open without breaking it, and moved to put Kijani on her bed.\n\nHe tucked her into the bed, wanting her to get warm, and he hesitated, unsure of what to do now. \"You don't have to be sorry\" He said softly", "username": "MarshiestMallow", "char_name": "Phoebe" }, { "text": "Flood woke up after a surprisingly nightmare free nap.

He didn't know, but suspected yes. Undervalued and mistreated for a lot of her life, Connor could see how Magneto might be an interesting choice. Maybe his opinion of her wasn't enough.

She figured if she was going to help fight magneto, then she needed to look the part of a hero.\n\nHero. Had she finally decided then, to be a hero?\n\nIt didn't matter know. She changed into it, pleased at the fit. It was a green leotard, and brown mask. Logjt green and dark mingled together, and she wove vines over her body, slipping in some Devils snare as well. For the first time, she actually felt like she for her alias. Had she learned enough to do well? She was competent in her fighting, yes. Was she ready?\n\nMaybe. But something had driven the teachers away, and Magneto had sort to harm the academy, and sort to harm humans and the world. She couldn't sit by and watch that. If she got in trouble, whether from her own lack of experience, or from either of her parents, she would live with the consequences.

Or even conscious, given the fact that it was returning....\n\nWas this all just a ploy? What was he meant to do?\n\nHe hadn't felt so lost in...months. Since coming to the academy. He didn't know where to go from here, where to even begin to think what the future held. No. He was just following a plane, having thought he could have been the big hero.\n\nWas that even what he wanted? Connor wasn't too sure. Then where did that leave him? What was he meant to do? He had always done what was expected of him, but here, he had no idea what was expect of him. Or even if he wanted to follow the expectations. Maybe if he hadn't come to the academy....\n\nBut that in itself was a terrifying thought. Not have gone to the academy? To have made friends who were simply friends with him, and not the fame of being a stark? To...even if...kijani. Laughing. So enthused with the flame resistant paper. Standing up for them in the cafeteria. The dance. All of it, so fresh in his mind, so easy to recall...no. He would take this confusion a thousand times over, and a thousand more, simply to have gone to the academy.\n\nSo what did that mean? That he had a lot to think about. As the plane made its way to the school, so did Connor. When it was near, he angled downwards, landing smoothly near the gym. It didn't take him long to find his father, Barry Allen, and Clark Kent. As he was walking towards them, the headmaster joined the three. Connor hesitated, for the briefest second, before continuing, removing his mask.\n\n\"The plane is returning\" he said, \"I'm unsure if the situation on the plane, but so no evidence that Magneto was stopping the change of course, so whether or not he is on the plane is debatable. I realized on the way back that it was probably foolish going after someone who could manipulate my own suit. I guess I was just hoping for a chance to give those taken a chance to escape.\" He shrugged lightly, looking back to the gym, wanting more then anything to not be here. Doing this.

She skidded to a stop beside him, \"the plane, my plant monster tells me it's coming back! Kat took the plane back! I wish I had more, but once nicholas returned, it only stayed a few more minutes before disappearing, probably hiding in a nook somewhere.\"\n\nShe looked to the headmaster and smiled,\n\"I'm glad you returned safetly, I should get back to the gym. The wall seems a bit unstable. I think with Katherin, we can create a stable\nStructure to hold it up\" and then she was gone, running back the way she had come.\n\n\"Wait, Phoebe!\" Wayne said, and Phoebe merely waved, not looking back.\n\nConnor was slightly perplexed at this. Clark Kent chuckled and said, \"did you really expect her to come back when you called Bruce? She's your daughter after all. Besides, there's Magneto to deal with\"\n\nThe headmaster sighed, and Connor frowned. Then shook his head, watching as they started off, clearly looking for where the plane would land.

In fact, the only reassurance that she wasn't dead was the slow rise and fall of her chest as she breathed. It didn't appear that she would wake anytime soon. Her dreams were plagued with nightmares, swirling colours, and powerful emotions. It didn't appear that Kalinda was even in the world anymore, but rather, some alternative dimension. Every time someone tried to touch her, or indeed, even when near her, she would thrash, flinch or scream, without appearing to wake up.\n\nThe nurses and other care staff kept their distance from her, purely for their safety, as typically anything they were carrying, or anything near Kalinda would rise up in the air.

Student she touched as she made a mad dash across the grounds would feel a powerful spike in their emotions. Bare skin on bare skin caused this, and Kalinda shuddered at the contact. If anyone cared to listen to the steady muttering from her mouth, they would hear \"Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, leave me alone! STOP IT\".\n\nShe was in her dorm before she registered where she was. Before she seemed to come to her senses. She slid down the shut door, and cradled her head in her hands, shaking. But she didn't shed any tears, indeed, didn't seem to even emote any emotion besides distress. And even that seemed like cool detachment. It seemed to take hours for her to pull herself together, when in fact it was mere moments. She showered, and stood staring at the clothes in her wardrobe. She finally swallowed, and chose a black, skin tight...suit. Which virtually covered her hands, feet and neck as well as her body, so that the only skin showing was that on her head and face. She pulled on a top and pants over it, knowing she probably looked foolish, but not caring. indeed, she seemed to attack the chore of getting dressed as nothing more then a duty, cool disinterest.\n\nShe gathered what she needed, and then headed to the cafeteria. Two notes were in her hands, they would find their way to who they needed to go to, during the day. And they wouldn't know who put them there.

Tools, metals, nuts, bolts, screws, drill pieces, and more were spread across the whole floor of his room. His had fixed up any damage his suit had gotten during the battle, as well as improving some aspects. And adding others.\n\nThe plans were spread, abandoned, on the desk, creased from their many foldings, and paper was spread across the floor, pencil sketching hastily drawn on them. Crumpled balls of paper also littered the floor, the desk, and the trash can, and blunt pencils, a ruler, and other stationary items were scattered around as well. Instead of the noodles that were his go to foods when working like he had were absent, replaced with coffee, and candy bars, so that by the time four am rolled around, he had crashed hard. But it had been worth it. He was satisified with what he had done.\n\nWhen he woke, he sighed heavily, and rose, dutiful as always. He got ready for the day, somehow managing to tidy up as he did so, but there was always a straw nut, bolt or screw that he somehow managed to step on.

Something which clearly had an effect, though what could have caused the reactions she could only guess at. For the moment there was no fun for her there.\n\nKijani and Flood were talking: Magneto's little birds. That was of little interest to her. Besides, her reputation was not one of truthfulness and no matter how earnestly she told the tale Kat was outnumbered. Though paying attention to the commitment to their loyalties could prove more interesting.\n\nThen in walked the golden son. Granted it had been a long time since she had seen Orin but his appearance was hardly conspicuous with all that polished Asgardian armour. That would be a difficult dance. Again his words would be favoured over hers, no matter how sweet she said them, providing he was his fathers son. If there was any confrontation there she would have to be careful not to be seen to instigate it, not physically at least.\n\nShe pulled the plate back towards her and tore apart the bread, occasionally popping a piece in her mouth.", "username": "Klyix", "char_name": "Eldkatla 'Kat' Lokidóttir" }, { "text": "Kijani chuckled softly.

Quickly finding at least one foot hold she then managed to find a hand hold lower and then held tight as she waited for the inevitable force of gravity.\n\nThankfully no more disappeared and she was able to stay on the wall - still a fair distance up despite her misfortune.

She wasn't the only to just jump down but she was in a nice position of knowing the floor would take more damage than her.

At one point she was stuck balancing on one hold, a skill that surprised her more than anything. She must have practiced or something in the past because when it happened she knew what to do. But that didn't quite translate so well later on. Losing her grip she tumbled. Her first instinct was to place her hands anywhere on the wall. For some reason she had it in her mind that she would stick to it. Of course she didn't and only managed to rough up her hands.

She was useless to him, far more trouble than she was worth, and yet he... he loved her. She wasn't fully sure what that felt like, but if this was part of it, then she was enjoying it so far.\n\nEven so, she was so afraid. Connor could be lying- though that was hard for her to believe. Connor didn't really have that kind of guile. For a smaller fib, perhaps, but nothing like this. What made her more worried was the thought that Connor only thought that this was love.

Why would he asked her about him? \"Um. I imagine he's okay. He was in gym so I assume he's fine. I hVent talked to him since yesterday's events\" no need to mention she thought he was failing her.

She was glad to hear that if she did need a job maybe she could TA in a year or so. Makoto imagined that she would need more experience to do so, which would obviously mean in the coming years as opposed to right away. Phoebe was very excited to greet Nicholas and it seemed safe by their interactions to assume that at the very least, they were attracted to each other. She was very aware that she was the third wheel, by her own mind's doing rather than her new companion's. Could she call Phoebe that already? She hoped so, if nothing else she hoped to be regarded as an acquaintance.\n\nSomeone new sat down beside Phoebe, he seemed to make her a bit uneasy. Her tone changed when she talked to him, but she was still polite and friendly. The boy that had just sat down and begun to talk to Phoebe quickly changed trains of thought in the conversation and introduced himself to Makoto. She thought that Flood was an odd name but he may not have wanted to give his real one. She was in no position to judge since she herself was going to be doing the same.\n\n\"My name is Gale.\" Makoto said, smiling sheepishly. She was still young and had yet to get accustomed to boys. She could barely forge a friendship with a girl when her mom was alive, much less with a boy. Makoto wondered why the boy chose Flood as his name, if in fact he had chosen the name for himself.

Meaning what she said, smiling at the intended pun. \"Maybe you could teach me then? How to learn how to control powers?\" Makoto asked the group, but it was more pointed at Flood. Weird or odd never seemed to bother her. She had thought herself to be an outsider long before her powers came to be and despite how bad she had wanted to be normal; to have a normal family. Makoto's meek smile dimmed and her eyes clouded over, her mind leaving the current social situation and being absorbed in reliving the pain of her father's death and then her mother's. They were gone, how they left her alone in the world tormented her more than anything. They were by no means a shock, quick, or like taking off a band aid. It made her angry at her family and at life but more than anything it made her feel deep emotional pain, sadness, and a crushing sense of abandonment. Long before her parents died they had abandoned her, being absorbed in their own situations. Her dad had stuck around though.\n\nWisps of Makoto's hair began to float and pull apart from her head.

She had left her backpack, hat and coat in her new room after all.\n\nMakoto revisited the social workers coming to her house and how terrified it made her, how angry it made her, how it made everything real. People sitting close by would be able to feel the static and dryness of the air now, despite the cooking areas. Then there was Storm, she came to help Makoto. She suddenly realized that she had yet to answer Phoebe's questions. Trying to push the memories from her mind she focused on the current situation. Both scared and surprised of how her powers seemed to be forming, she tried to ignore how they were acting right now. Trying to flatten her hair, she continued.\n\n\"Umm, to answer your questions Phoebe; yes Gale has to do with my powers.\" The word felt weird coming from her mouth and not staying in her thoughts. She still wasn't sure if they were a gift or a curse. \"Storm is... we just met but she has encouraged me a lot. Her and some of her friends? Coworkers? Teammates? Anyway, they picked me up from my hometown. They saved me from a blue woman and brought me here.\" Makoto tried to move quickly through the story so not to dwell on it.

Uncomfortable. She sighed softly and said, \"if you ever want to talk, I'm happy to listen\" she smiled friendly, and left it at that. \"Well then.

Unless that was part of his ... insanity, for lack of a better word. \"Why don't we all go get food now, like Phoebe suggested?\" Makoto asked the group, hoping that a potential disagreement may be avoided.

Sure, the running bs a good cardio, and the weights help, but there's other things you can do, for high, fast results? You need to mix it up. Go hard. Do the things that make your muscles scream. Squats,'push ups, chin ups, sit ups. There's a reason they are still around, even with the weight machines and stuff\" \n\nShe shrugged, and jumped onto a treadmill, doing a slow warm up. She just did maintance work, not particularly caring about her self, but knowing it was good for her powers. \"You need to mix it up in anycase.

Makoto had by now noticed the ring on Phoebe's left hand and was trying to find a good time to congratulate her. She figured while they were on the topic of Ryan, it was as good a time as ever. Makoto moved with Phoebe down the small line in the cafeteria, collecting food to eat. \n\n\"I chose martial arts because I figured it was a good place to start and I had taken a basic combative class at my old high school.\" Makoto began. \"I really enjoyed learning the Chinese martial arts, they seemed to flow easier than the others and they have good striking patterns.\" She kind of laughed to herself, under her breath. \"At least, that's what I liked from the little I experienced in that class. I used one of the strikes in Power Development yesterday.\" pointing out a visual reference that Phoebe may have been able to associate the martial art style to.\n\nThe young ladies had gotten their food and so Makoto began to walk in Flood's direction.

There was something crisp and fresh about it that she just loved. \n\n\"Good morning Ryan.\" Makoto greeted when he came to sit with them. Again she listened as Phoebe and Ryan interacted. She could tell how much they meant to each other just by how they interacted with one another. It was wonderful and she was happy for Phoebe but... it also made her ache with loneliness.

I'm not in the mood for your antics\"\n\n\"You need to check on Kijani\"\n\n\"What do you think I'm bloody doing?\" But of course, Anthony couldn't know what had happened, couldn't know that Kijani had pushed him away. Surely not. \n\nConnor could hear the slight intake of breath, and frowned slightly. That little hitch? Something he wouldn't expect of Anthony. \n\n\"Something is wrong, Mr.Stark. with the way we are raised, to fight is to live. You fight for superiority, to be the top, or else nothing.

Move it, Ignot!\" \n\nHe hit the ground outside the girls dorms at a run, leaving the suit on. He ran, long legs fueled by the suit eating the ground quickly. He spared the door one quick glance, and then just kicked it open. What he saw caused him to freeze. And then he was in the room. He had the sense to grab the pill bottle, the vodka bottle, even as he scooped Kijani into his arms. \n\nHe was at the nurses office fairly quickly, and had Kijani on a bed, even as he removed his suit. He ignored the shouts, and yells from the nurses, and burst into the drug room, scanning shelves quickly and found the activated Carbon, as well as the espom Salt. needed afterwards.

When it was all gone, he induced vomiting, and hoped it would be enough, as the nurse moved smoothly, a container ready to prevent a mess.

They hadn't been there most of her life. But they had done what they had done to protect her, and there was no denying that they loved her. But she would have given anything to have at least grown up with one of them. Growing up in an orphanage wasn't so bad, if you were normal. But she had had to hide everything, and had been very, very lonely. \n\nShe sighed softly, having thought she had come to turns with it all, but clearly she hadn't. She was tired of secrets, and tired of having to seem both happy, and accepting of them all. She should have known she had had a brother. Should have known everything when she was a kid, and not an adult. \n\nKnowing of the fact that Devika was an empath, she tried to rain in her emotions, and when that didn't work, she walked further away. She realised she had been rude, leaving like that, but right then, she found that she didn't care. \n\nHad she ever stopped being truly lonely? Yes. With Ryan. And Sue. And Katherin. Nick. She'd been lonely with her mother, even though she hadn't recognised that at the time. Perhaps because she had had to leave her friends, Ryan. She was happy here, happy being a student at the school, and she wasn't lonely. \n\nBut part of her would also be that little girl, reading the letter over and over and over again, desperately wishing that her mother would walk into the orphanage and take her away. It hadn't happened, and perhaps she had never come to terms with that. She didn't realise that she had sat down, until she rested her head on her raised knees, the tears prickling her eyes. \n\nWhen she was done feeling sorry for herself, she lifted her head, and looked out over the grounds. Maybe it was time to start thinking about what she was going to do after the school. She couldn't just be a wife, after all. She had toyed always with a landscape business.

It would have a send date of the day before.\n\nConnor\n\nI'm sorry you have to find the truth this way. By now, my body has likely been discovered. I hope one day you'll be able to forgive me. I love you, to my last breath. I cut you off so that you would feel no responsibility for what I've done. This is not your fault, Connor. \n\nI know you were always asking me to tell you what was going on. Now I will, I'll tell you everything. \n\nMy parents never wanted me. They got together at a party, one thing led to another, which led to me. My mother wanted to abort me before I was born. My father's mother apparently had some religion against that- my father didn't care either way, apparently. I was ignored by them for most of my life- except when there was some kind of function. Then I was dressed up, dolled up, told to be polite and perfect. I was the precious perfect daughter, to be trotted out and showed off. When we got home, I was nothing again.\n\nI always had my powers, though, from as early as I can remember. I had a nanny. Her name was Marta. She was beautiful and sweet and smart, with long brown hair and freckles. I loved her. She loved me. She called me special, for what I could do, and she said one day I'd be something. She would give me books, bigger and bigger books to practice with. I was ten and I could juggle three Oxford dictionaries. I had power, Connor, and I was happy. One night, I heard her fighting with my parents. Something about me needing real parents. I wish I could have told her that she was my mother, in my heart. I never got the chance. When I woke in the morning, she was gone. I never saw her again.\n\nAlpha happened to me after that. I really can't tell you everything that happened. Most of it I don't remember except in nightmares. I know hospitals give me cold sweats. I know I can't smell blood, or bleach, without my mind shutting down. I know I can't be restrained without completely freaking out. There's more. There are things I'll never break free of.\n\nI don't know how long it took, but eventually my power just went away. They tried to force it back out. When that didn't work, they put me in a truck. Didn't bother to really restrain me. I didn't fight. I knew they were going to kill me, and I didn't care. They took me out to some empty field, and one of them cut into my abdomen. Something came out of me. A microchip, a tracking device, I don't know. I was standing there, bleeding, watching a soldier point a pistol at my forehead. \n\nSomething came over me. Something cold, something determined not to let them murder me. I could feel again, with my powers, and I saw that the scientist who was handling me made the mistake of carrying a notepad. I ripped it from her pocket. The pages were knives. The soldier, I killed him. I cut his face open, his throat, his stomach. I took his gun. The scientist was on the ground, begging. Pleading.\n\nI shot her, Connor. I shot her until the gun was empty. She couldn't have done anything to harm me, in that moment. I murdered a woman, Connor. I was eleven. I'm a murderer.\n\nThe last blow came much later. I don't remember getting to a hospital. I just remember running, running, running until everything hurt, and then nothing hurt because my body had grown used to the pain. I woke up in a white room, with that horrible smell. They had to drug me to calm me. The doctor said I was lucky. I had a bad infection but I lived. He said they had to do surgery, that they had to take a part of me out.\n\nI'll never have children, Connor. Between the scarring and the infection, they said I would not be able to conceive. My childhood got taken, and my future was stolen before I even got a chance to consider it.\n\nDon't you see, Connor? You will do better than me. You need a strong, pure, good woman, who can give you all the love you deserve, and all the little baby Starks the world can handle. I was never going to be that woman for you. I was always a mistake, an aberration, and I'm fixing it now before I ruin you like I am ruined.\n\nI love you.\n\nKijanihim, he checked it, reading with a slight frown. Anyone watching him might see a variety of emotions crossing his face-pain,\nAnger, sadness, fear and finally, a strange sort of amusement, that seemed to incorporate all these emotions. \n\nAs he read it once more, Connor ross smoothly, walking out the classroom without a word. He kept his phone in his hand, as he moved through the halls, his long stride eating up the distance to the infirmary. Me pushed the door open silently, seeing Kijani in what could be considered a state of panic. \n\nHe watched her, silent for a moment. He didn't go to comfort her, to wrap her in his arms, didn't. Not yet. \n\n\"There's a difference, Kijani, between being a murderer and surviving. A difference between killing a human being, and killing a monster in human skin. But beyond that, do you actually think that would change the way I see you? Because it doesn't. You were a child, alone, and faced with people who treated you as nothing more then a lab rat.\" And now he walked over to her, silent, his expression, for the moment, curiously blank. \n\nHe knelt, so he could be looking up at Kijani. \"As for a strong, pure, good woman? I imagine any of them would be boring, unassuming, and just happy to do whatever I want. And I've never met anyone like that. As for children, who is to say that even if a child isn't biological, they can't be yours. After all, my father was adopted. And you yourself wrote on the email that Marta is your mother, in your heart. You are not ruined. Not to me. I think if you had succeeded, if you had died, I would have been ruined. You will never ruin me, not the way you think.\"\n\nHe sighed softly. \"Don't you see, Kijani? I see you. I want you. I need you.\" He gave her a half a smile, not looking away, he now seemed to struggle with what to say.
