The Courtyard

[†Øߡ§™ Knight]

"Ummm... years ago..." Tobias replied slowly. He tapped his chin with his right index finger, a common mannerism for him as he thought.

[Mykel Rahs]

"Mine was.... during a baseball game." His eyes darkened a tad. "I got hit with a lightning-charged aluminum bat during a storm. Right in the medulla." He tapped the base of his skull. "Woke up three days later, and shocked my dad in the knee."

[Lyra ♫♪ Calnote]

"So yours aren't natural-born?" Lyra questioned. Well obviously he wasn't, there was a process that happened. Or maybe that's what triggered the cells or nerves- whatever part in the body that had mutated DNA.

[Mykel Rahs]

"I guess that lightning-charged bat hit me hard enough to jolt my DNA or something.... I did something I'll always regret with this power.... And, well...." He shook his head hard and fast. "Okay, enough out of me."

Artemis inhaled breathing deeply as they all spoke of getting there powers. Nothing really horrible happened. Artemis bit her lip as a freezing chill sent through the air. Icecilces were made on the tips of the tree as her flame danced in her hand.

[†Øߡ§™ Knight]

Tobias wondered what Mykel had done, but decided not to pursue the subject. He shivered in the night air. It felt like it was getting colder. "Hey, Artemis, could you warm the area up a bit?" Tobias asked the girl. She had warmed him up before and he hoped she could do it again.

[Mykel Rahs]

(Mykel's switching personalities into Aden, his pyro.) Mykel rushed over to Artemis, reaching out towards the flame in her palm. "Pretty." He whispered.

[ღѦrtemis • Ҫ]

Artemis starred to Tobias as she let her flame jump in the air and dissapeare. Another flame reappered in place in her palm as she warmed up the atmosphere. She saw they noticed the temp changed and she nodded to Tobias as she saw Mykel come up to her and touch her flame. "Hey!" She yelled stepping back pulling the flame with her. "What the hell! You control lighteneing not fire! Dont burn your-"S he yelled but stopped noticing nothing happened. Her eyes narrowed.

[Lyra ♫♪ Calnote]

Lyra tilted her head, confused about his sudden change of movement. She ignored this and looked at Tobias, " I need to go to bed soon," Lyra said. "I have singing lessons in the morning," she said with a small yawn, "waking up early is no fun."

[Mykel Rahs]

"Prettypretty." He mumbled again, zapping a dry patch of grass, watching with glee as it flamed up.

[†Øߡ§™ Knight]

Tobias gave Artemis a nod for making the area warmer. "What are you doing!" Tobias exclaimed as Mykel lit some grass on fire.

[Mykel Rahs]

"I'm making pretty things." He said simply, then flopped onto the ground, watching as the flames danced, delight in his eyes.

[Lyra ♫♪ Calnote]

"What the hell?" Lyra saw the grass light up in flames. She immediately stood up, "What the frick is wrong with you?" she demanded, walking over to the grass to stomp it out. It was a reaction, normally if Lyra would think about it she would be shit-scared to do it.

Artemis looked wide eyes at the boy. She took a step away from him as she controled the out brst of Mykel. "Not kool..I already have carson taking that from me get your own flame"S he didnt MEAN to sound rude..she just was like that. Artemis inhaled as she created wind to the lit flame in the grass which made it wild and rise wildly as she then put it out. "I dnt need to be getting into trouble yet"

[†Øߡ§™ Knight]

"You can't just light things on fire!" Tobias scolded Mykel. He went to help Lyra.
