Artemis looked over to Derek. "Your right..what ever id behind that door...is something that could be usefull in the right hands..but what could be so dangerous yet so important to put in a school for the gifted.." She said pondering the thought. "And I knew Logan...he was a cool kid"

Useful? Was Derek dealing with a villain or morally ambiguous character here? He shrugged it off and dismissed it as trying to read too much into her. "Never got a chance to meet him." Derek turned his head back toward the girls, trying to see if they would reveal anything else.

Artemis shrugged as she snapped her fingers. A flame lit in her hand..a bit wild and out of control only because her ring was off...but she concentrated to keep it under control. "He was pretty quiet...didnt see him around much" She spoke..her accent was thick in the early morning.

Noticing the accent, Derek turned to face Artemis. The fire caught his eye. It was danced around, almost as if it wanted to break out of an invisible cage. Yet something about it scared him, if only slightly. Small arcs started to travel up Derek's hands, as he tried to take in the situation.
Derek tried to steer the conversation away from the incident for the time being. "Yeah... So, this school is pretty big..."

Artemis kept her eyes on the fire letting it wrap around her arm. She felt nothing no burn no heat...A small sigh left her lips. She wrapped the flame in air as she let it float in front of her and close to Derek letting him feel the heat. She tured to look at him her eyes again hitting his. "Yeah...its pretty big but hey its a high school" She shrugged.

The fire was getting dangerously close to Derek. The heat seemed to lick the sweat of his body, to the point where he looked back up at Artemis. Her eyes were there again. Piercing. Magnetic. Derek forced himself to regain his composure, and straightened his back. "Well, I've never been to a school like this before. That's all", he said as calmly as he could.

Derek seemed to breathe a short sigh, as the flame returned to Artemis. She had smirked toward him, indicating her amusement of the situation. Derek wasn't going to let her get the best of him. He brought himself closer to Artemis, sliding down the counter. With a playful grin, he said, "You're right. I don't meet many people like you."

Artemis clasped her hand closed and extinguished her flame. She noticed Derek get closer to her. Why was he awake again?...wouldnt he get in trouble with a prefect. She sort of shrugged it off. He was right however..he wouldnt meet many like her. She flashed him a cheeky grin. "I know.." She looked away from him making the air chilly.

Derek felt the air change with the disappearance of the flame. Yet it grew colder still. Air manipulation ringed in his head, remembering her power set. However, this wasn't going to stop him. It was a game, and he was determined to win, regardless of his grade standing.
Derek came up behind her, not close enough to touch her, but enough to whisper in her ear. "Cold?"

"You two have fun doing whatever you're doing", she said, jumping off the countertop,"I'm going out."

Artemis looked around the room as it began to fog lightly from the chill. Soon she dropped her hands when she felt Derek close to her. She shivered lightly when he whispered next to her as well. She turned her face close to him..her eyes meeting him as a small smirk came across her face.
"Slightly..but I can..." She leaned in to where they were almost touching.her skin radiated heat. "Fix that" She raised a brow..she knew where this was going he amused her in a way.

She again locked eyes with him, but this time Derek felt as if he had enough control. If anything, he enough control over his power to do what he needed. Raising an eyebrow Derek whispered, "A little warmer, but is it enough?"
Derek slowly moved his hand forward and behind her, making sure her eyes were locked with him the entire time, and placed his hand above her spine, still not touching. He allowed weak sparks to travel up her spine, nothing painful, mere tingles.

Artemis was locked on him. She suddenly coulndt look away...something was up. She inhaled as he whispered to her. She made it hot in the common room suddenly. A soft shiver entered her spin and made her shake as her breath was gone. That never happened...what the hell? Her eyes narrowed. She looked away suddenly. "Derek, where are you from" She said changing the subject. Or atempting to.

Derek was surprised at her reaction. He inwardly smirked, as he realized this power probably made her feel vulnerable. Leaning back on the counter, Derek answered, "Nowhere that matters. I've been everywhere." She had looked away from him, but Derek was still trying to catch her eyes.
