As the gaze drifted away from her, she was dragged slowly, painfully away from the memory. she felt her body become one with her consiousness. she felt the grip on her hand loosen, and her body fall to the floor, hitting the ground with a bang. she didn't even feel it. though she felt weak and light headed, she felt angry all over again. and this time it was worse. she didn't knwo if this… phobia meant to do it, bt it felt on perpose. and she didn't like it.
regaining her composer, she swung out a kick, aimed at his knees and brought the tall adolesant crashing to the floor.
"YOU BLOODY IDIOT! DO YOU WANT US KILLED?!" she screamed at him, kicking him in the ribs, trying to resist the urge to shock him. in her state, she knew she could kill him. she turned round and saw roger standing there looking shocked, scared, hurt and pale. he swayed on the spot slightly, then regained his balance, looking from Lena to Phobia. "u ok?" she asked, wearily.

A female voice shook Roger from his trance like state. He quickly regained his composure, and was standing in what he hoped was an unphased manner, "Yeah I'm fine, why? were you worried about me," he teased.
Roger glanced over to where Phobia was, there was no one there. "Great, you let him get away. Why do i bother. You are useless."
Roger tunred and walked away before any more questions could be asked. He didn't want to share that memory with anyone. Stupid girl he thought, if she didnt go off wandering, this wouldn't have happened!

Lena stared after the boy. was he on something…?
'why do i care? o i'm heartless now am i?' she thort 2 herself savagely. "I'M USELESS" she yelled after him angrily, "at least i DID something." she whiirled round, and this time didn't stop walking. she had no idea where she was, and didn't want 2 know either. if all the people here were like that, she really couldn't care less.
"i leave one place where they're all normals and try 2 set fire to me," she muttered to herself angrily, "i come here and they still want to kill me… i cant win!" for some reason she felt like crying.
instead she let out a strangled yell, and punch her fist into the nearest wall. the electricity in the building flicked slightly, then returned to normal. Lena's right fist was already covered in blood.

Roger wanted to go an apologize, but his pride told him not to. she hadn't done anything wrong. Why was he being so rude? the guilt made him want to turn around and go after her, and he did.
"Hey, miss Wattson, wait up," he said calling to her.
When he reached the girl, he noted that her hand was bleeding, and she didnt look happy, but he still spoke.
"Listen, ummm..i still don't know your name, so i will just continue, I'm sorry. I was a jerk. Can you forgive me?"
Roger waited for an answer, a part of him wanted her to say yes, but a bigger part didnt care. He waited silently for her response.

She didn't look at him to begin with, just nursed her hands. wandering what the hell he was doing. one minute he was calling her useless. now he was apologising to her for being rude.
'bipolar much?' she asked herself.
she looked at him. he looked almost indifferent. bt most guys did wen they were apologising. she wandered if her saying yes would make any difference. then again, she realised she hadn't been gr8 to him either.
she held out her left hand, her right hurt too much, she craddled it closer to her body. "Lena Wattson," she said, "electricity mistress." she was no longer powered up, it was safe to touch her.

He looked at her outstretched hand. "You're not gonna electrocute me, are you?" he asked, suspision lacing his words.
Before she could answer, Roger decided to risk it. He grabbed her hand, and winced in thought of the pain, but there was none. "I'm Roger, by the way. Nice to meet you Lena."
Roger felt like a jerk. He had beemn so mean to Lena, that he forgot she was new, and probably just out of her comfort zone. He felt bad all of a sudden.
"I should probably get to showing you around. We'll start with your room, I guess. Follow me, Lena," he paused, then, "I'm guessing that the fact that I'm still alive means that you forgive me?" he asked

She burst out laughing. She couldn't help it.
"ur not bipolar are u?" she teased, smiling in a friendly for the first time since she had arrived at the school.
his slightly surprised face answered her question, so she answered his. "i guess," she shrugged, then winked at him, "besides, i'm not powered up. i cudn't shock a rat." tht got a slight smile at him, she started walking, and he caught up with her. "what's your power by the way?" she asked, still having no idea of where she was going.

"Sorry, Lena, that's confidential," he smiled, "if I told you, I'd have to kill you."
They walked along the halways, and went up a flight of stairs into the girls' wing of the mansion. Roger guided Lena over to room 344, and they paused outside.
"Here is your room. You can sleep, shower, change, basically do anything except...you know. Boys aren't usually permitted up here. But, if you are...you know, then you won't have to worry about the no boy rule." he laughed.

"are you always so inarticulate?" she asked, a half smile forming on her face, "never mind." she pushed the door open slightly, the room wasn't bit, but it was spacious, suited her needs. there was a bath room attached, and probably a small one. she shuddered slightly. she hated small spaces. she saw her bags in the corner.
"you no what, roger," she started turning around, "i'll b ok from here. thanks. i know you probably wud have rather hung out with ur associate than have to show the new girl around. bt cud you do me a massive favour and show me where to get something to eat? i'm starving." she was fully aware it was the most she had said to him at all, without insulting him (though she was tempted to call him rabbit again, she didnt want to risk his anger again). she ran her fingers over her bloodied knuckles gently as she awaited his reply.

"Aww," he saidn, in mock complain, "do I have to?! Just joking. I would love to show you, follow me."
They walked over to the cafeteria, to and they got some late breakfast/early lunch. Roger saw Mason sitting over at a table with Eagle, and he decided to join them.
He glanced at Lena, "You can come to, I guess," he smirked.

she looked over at the two strangers. strangers and her didn't mix well. roger and seen that. so had the male stranger at the table. just then she didn't know if she should talk to them or not. she was still adjusting to the fact that she had been attacked, and that the origional jerk was not actually and jerk and a decent person.
"i uh…" she stammered, not sure where to look, "maybe i shud just sit on my own?" she hadn't meant for it to come out as a question. but it was too late now.

Name: Ember Wave
Code Name: Liquid Fire
Age: 14
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 130 lbs
Appearence: Her skin is slightly tanned, showing a bit more time outside than most people. Or maybe she just spent every second she was camping at the beach. Her hair is a dark reddish-brown color, her wavy hair reaching just past her shoulders. Dark blue strips of dye show, but she doesn't have more than five of them. They never fade, so people wonder if it's natural for her. Her eyes are in truth grey, but it never shows besides for when she's sleeping or all of her power energy is run out. Other than that, her eyes change from red to blue, depending on her mood and power usage.
Personality: She has a split personality. It was called Bipolar at first, but she knows there is just two different sides to herself. Her "Red" side is the most dangerous. While "Red", she has a very short temper and will lash out at the smallest of things. Her "Red" side also seems to be much more stronger, with more behind her punches. On the other hand, her "Blue" side is extreamly calm. Nothing can tick her off when she's "Blue" and she can think much more clearly, taking on her true talent of being smarter than average. Overall, she can be pretty sarcastic, increased by "Red" and decreased by "Blue". Deep down, after you get past her "Red" of first meetings, she is a very caring person. She will willingly sacrifice herself for any of her close friends, and is extreamly loyal. The way she will react to what people say and do, all depends on how she woke up, or how events of the day have changed her mood.
Power(s) and Limitations: While "Red" she can control the element of fire. She's almost invincible, being able to brun through and melt almost anything. Since she is still developing, she can only burn through the easy materials, unless she is in a really bad mood. She can control fires she didn't form herself, using minimum energy from herself. Her "Red" energy runs out faster, for it burns up easier. During "Blue", she can control the element water. It's not near as strong as fire, but more defensive. She can envelop herself and people near her (and later on, anybody she wishes) with a water shield, which for enemies to pass, must drown. Her "Blue" allows her to think past those 2-second ideas she has while "Red", but still rather quickly. They are usually more developed, and more effective. Her "Blue" energy can last longer, but currently, she can keep no more than 5 people busy with her water. The more stronger she becomes, and more endurance she recieves, the more people she can keep busy. Her biggest problem is that she can't control her emotions, she never knows if she wake up "Red" or "Blue" and it constantly has her worried, she's looses sleep every once in awhile over this subject.
(Sorry, I don't know much about X-men. I've only seen X-men II and that was while it was still in theaters.)

~Techy~ You're gonna need a bit more limitations on your powers, so far, the only downside I can see is that her powers are tied to her emotions....and that isnt necessarily a bad thing... the character itself seems more like a god than a super heroine. the charcter herself is good, it's just the powers I'm worried about. if you want to make it a bit make her a bit more "human" (meaning plausible ans stuff) the try this....keep the red and blue modes (that is a cool idea), but make it so each mode is a different person (like a skitso, cept normal)...and then you can have it like the two of them are always fighting for control, and you can't depend on neither red, nor blue mode to be around very long...this makes her seem a bit weaker, which is a good theing, perfect characters are never fun to play ...if you like the idead, try it, if not, just give her some more limitations. ((Now back with the story)) Roger, who was already seated in the spto beside Mason, stared at Lena, then spoke, "No, I think you should stay here with us. Oh yeah, I need to intrioduce you. You have informally met Mason," he pointed to his friend, who saluted her witjh a wave and a nod, "and this is Eagle," he pointed to the female sitting across from Mason. "Hi," she said kindly. ((if a personality wasnt stated before, Eagle is kind, caring, and overall nice person. She never has a bad thing to say about anyone, and will be the first to comfort someone when they are upset.)) "Pull up a chair," Roger said, ignoring chivalry, and waited for her to sit.

'very odd person,' was all Lena had to say on the matter, but did as he said (oddly), pulling up a chair opposite him, and with Eagle on her right. The others started talking about some girl called Kitty, who seemed to have snuck into the kitchens and stolen food for some late night party. Lena didn't understand the conversation much, so she kept quiet and helped herself to some toast and butter.
she reached out for the strawberry jam too, but Eagle got there first and handed to her. Lena looked up surprised at the older female. "thanks," she mumbled, accepting the jar.
instead of just shrugging it off, Eagle let out a small gasp, eyes fixed on Lena's hand. "What happened?" she asked, softly, as the boys carried on their conversation.
"i uh…" she blushed a little, the girl was far too kind to be sarcastic to. Lena wandered if she was an empath, "got kinda mad at a wall. it dusn't hurt!" she added hurriedly.
Eagle looked sceptical. "let me see," she held out her hand to take hers.
"that might not be a good idea…" Lena told her (nervousness was never a good combination with her and electricity either, never enough to kill, but posibly enough to hurt), keeping her hand to herself, glancing at Roger, wandering if he would choose that moment to turn back into the idiot before. instead he just carried on talking to Mason, instead it was the Mason guy that butted in.
"i dunno what power she's got," he piped up suddenly, seeing Eagle holding out her hand to Lena, "but it hurts when you touch her!"

Roger hadn't really been paying attention to Lena until this moment. He saw her reluctance to give Eagle her hand. Roger did not take it as shyness, he just assumed that she was beggining to charge up again, and Lena was afraid to hurt Eagle.
"Ummm...Eagle?" Sever ((code name, just so no one forgets)) said.
"Yes?" Was her reply.
"If Lena doesn't give her hand out to you, don't think of it as rude. She has a strong power that she can't completly control yet. Lena isn't being rude, just worried," he looked in Lena's direction, "That's about right, isn't it?" he asked.
