It had been far to long since Missy had ventured up to the top. So many things had happened up here. Noah and her had that conversation where they tossed pennies down below hitting kids. Wich made her laugh. And her friend Tobias asked her to the dance. She sighed shaking her head as she stepped through the door letting the chilly air blow through her hair. She inhaled the crisp air as her feet wandered over to the side. Closing her eyes she leaned over the railing looking out over the school. Looking down the people looked like ants. But she opened her eyes quickly after shutting them. Nick's lifeless face flashed again. SHe shook it off with a huff as she sat down. She had finally moved on from that time with Penny and Nick. But the nightmares still continued. She could only hope something would come along and help her forget.

Peter had spent much of his first day at Oceanside exploring. He wasn't looking for anything in particular, but when he stumbled upon the tower, he thought that he had found a gem. From the ground it looked like the perfect place to spend an afternoon away from the chaos of the campus. He walked up the winding staircase and finally made it to the top of the tower. He walked out and saw Artemis sitting against the ledge. "Artemis?" he asked her, making sure that it was, in fact, her.

Missy was leaning against the railing letting the cold air whip around her hair as she inhaled. Turning around as she heard the door she heard Peter the new kid call her name. "Thats me dont wear it out" She laughed waving over to him. Was luck on her side? When she needed an escape there came one? What were the odds."Peter right?" She asked.

"Yeah, that's me," he said, smiling as she laughed. "What are you doing up here?" he asked her. He didn't know how common of a place this was, but now that he was up here, he could see why it would be a good place for anyone to go. There was a nice view, and it was very cozy. They seemed to be slightly protected from the wind. Peter looked over the railing and realized just how high up they were.

Missy nodded slightly to herself as she was happy he got his name right. She sort of shrugged when he asked why she was up here. "It helps me think sometimes. Clear my mind" She vaguely told him. "Its just nice to be up here at times ya know" Missy turned back to look over the rail. "Its fun t watch the sun as it sets from up here" Artemis spoke as an orb of fire wrapped in wind was created in her hand as she began to move it around.

Peter watched as Artemis moved fire and wind around. "That's really cool, you know" Peter said, his eyes still following it. "Way cooler than my power," he shrugged. He understood why she liked being up here, it was a really peaceful place, and his mind felt clearer already.

Missy turned as she made the orb travel around his head with a smile. "Naw its nothing really. Your gift. That comes in handy" She told him taking the orb back in her hand and extinguishing it. Inhaling she looked up to him. He was taller then her. "So, when and how did you find out about for gift?" She asked him. "I mean im sorry-" She said. Missy didnt want to be rude.

"You can actually do stuff, though," Peter said. "My gift just affects me, and I can't really use it. It's just like a cushion, you know?" he said. "No, don't worry about it," he said. "I got into a fight back home. A bad fight. I got hurt and a minute later I was fine."

"Heh Well I wasnt always able to do stuff just cause havoc" She shrugged hiding a smirk. Hacov was something for her. When he told her it was fine with smiled leaning back against the railing as she looked at him. "Well, you sure gt lucky. And your powers came in handy when you need them" She told him. "You know not like you gt upset and set the classroom on fire or stopped all of the oxygen in the room and got kicked out of school" She laughed. "Pretty neat."

"Yeah, I expect that that would cause a bit of trouble," Peter said, smiling. "When did you discover your power?" he asked her, not really sure what else to talk about.

She nodded. "Yes very much so" She said inhaling moving her hair form her face. "Me? Oh um. I was little...really little In England. It was an incident at school I sort of grew up...being the villain there" She shrugged happy she came here. "I was adopted. so I figured I was normal.Till I got in a row with my 'parents'" She told him.

"And your powers took control during that row?" he asked, predicting that that was what she was insinuating. "What was the damage?"

She nodded a little hesitant to talk about her past to a stranger. However maybe if she opened up a bit they would be ore then mere strangers and friends. Hell she didnt even know if he was a hero or a villain. But it didnt matter at the moment. "Um damage. Well I put my father in the hospital. Gave him a concussion. and My mother." She shrugged. "She tried to stay out of it but I sorrta lost control its why I have this rin-" She stopped remembering The girl who had tossed her ring into the ocean. "My mom was fine a few burns on her hand. But that was it. The house was thrashed. Then sent me away after it" Artemis looked at him pulling her hands behind her head.

"Harsh," Peter said, though he was honored that she was comfortable enough telling him. "Well, at least you're here now? I mean they're supposed to help you learn to control those sorts of things, right?"

She nodded. "Harsh indeed." Sighing she let a smile graze her lips. "Yeah at least im here now" Missy said as she looked at him carefully. "And they do sort of help you. I mean if you take it onto yourself to sign up in the Arena and practice. Its how I learned to get better. My powers used to be out of control You should have seen Herc hall last summer" She widened her eyes with a giggle.
