"Trust me, I know more about the underground than you probably. Not too many great people from all the information I've gathered." Masaki said "But I'd say that's it's usually someone that has fire powers that ends up on the evil side since people are more afraid of fire than I've"

"Yes,but don't most people try to break the social norm?"
Jerome sighed as he staggered out of the corridors and into the waiting room,a stick looking thing in his hand.He found his way to Rosie and chuckled slightly,hitting the stick lightly against the ground."It's not decided yet but most likely I'll be completely blind within the next few months."He found his way to a seat and sat down."At least by then I should have a service dog."He sighed.

Masaki chuckled "Yeah but I think that's one thing you don't want to break the norm for. Only people that want to be villains are lunatics and psychopaths. I dont see you fitting either of those cases from what I can tell so far" he said

"You mean to tell me you'd rather let people think of fire as bad?"Boris sighed inwardly.Classic narcissist.

(And here we go. Back to the adventure. ^^) The door to the dressing room squeaked. Waro turned away from the window, and his gaze settled on Hornet's red face. "Careful, your skin's going to blend into that jacket of yours," he teased with a slight smirk. --- The metal flooring melted away, revealing a deep, gaping hole. It was too dark to see the spikes bottom, or the metal door on one side of the drop off without light assistance. Another part of the metal flooring, if melted, would reveal another hole that fell into a steep curve. It was impossible to see the bottom of that tunnel, but it too was blocked off by more metal at the end. Zed hopped onto the back of Karma, crouching lightly on the seat with his back to Isaac's. He pressed some sort of buttons on his hips, and straps sprung out, securing him to the bike. "Go down the track." Zed held his tablet in front of him, tapping it with utmost speed and concentration. In one corner of the screen, he kept track of the intruder's location. Potential energy huh? That was a tricky one indeed. "Right!" Zed ordered suddenly, as a door that was beginning to close came into view. Apparently, he was keeping track of their own location along with everything else. The door led to a long hallway, about eight feet wide and eight feet tall. Countless doors riddled the sides. "Tell me more about your brother." (Into the fray!) "Hush. Does it look good or not?" Hornet grumbled back, still looking downwards at her feet. She swayed side to side in an attempt to keep his attention without meeting his gaze. --- James simply jumped right down into the destruction, and he fell like a feather- slow, graceful. He landed and held on to the side of the wall to avoid the spikes. Then, he brought his wrist up to his mouth, and seemed to whisper into it. A voice whispered back, and he nodded. That hand then extended towards the direction of Zed and Isaac, and blast of hot air fired forward, melting the wall. He easily jumped the gap and continued walking towards them. (I had this idea. James's power works like this: turns potential to kinetic energy, OR kinetic to potential. It's like flipping a switch. So, if a bullet were fired, and he stops it, the kinetic energy from the bullet becomes potential, and is dispersed. Yada yada, onto the idea. Micro-nuke uranium-enriched bullet. Zed is smart. He realizes how James' ability works, and so Zed creates a bullet that is super enriched with uranium. When Zed shoots at him, James is able to sense that bullet firing and act instantaneous (thus how he stops bullets normally). However, he changes the bullet's kinetic to potential, and that ignites a chain reaction in the uranium bullet- thus activating a miniature Chernobyl in his face.) "He's a monster. Inhuman reflexes, built like a truck and hits harder than a nuke. All I know is his ability is related to potential energy, and possibly kinetic as well. He's like me, but better." Isaac swirls Karma into a turn, and takes them through just as the door shuts behind them- a moment later, and they would've lost the back wheel. Now they hurtle down the hallway.

"Hell yeah" Masaki said "Fire isnt something that should be thought of as good in the first place. Kids may start to get the wrong idea and think that they could play with fire like it's some toy. Ice is a lot safer than fire you know."
(Masaki is kind of an idiot lol)

(Lol,I see what you mean.)
Boris looked at Masaki with a smirk."Tell me,do you think fire is more dangerous than this?"And with that he formed one icicle that stopped right before it touched his neck and then a snowball with a bunch of spikes in it."If you asked me,ice can be as if not more dangerous than fire."

"I wouldn't underestimate fire. Even if it isn't a solid inject, I could set this entire block up in flames in mere moments" Ash said as he made several balls of fire appear between the two of them "Though can I say I'm impressed with your control over your powers? I'm sure it took a while to be able to do that. I know it took a while for me to be able to control my fire like I can now"

Rosie perked when she saw Jerome walking towards her. When she heard his words, her eyebrows knotted together in concern. She wished there was something she could do. "You're actually going to get a dog?" she almost sounded excited at the idea. "Isn't there anything the doctor can do?"

Waro glanced to the window once more, his smirk growing a little at Hornet's attitude. He looked at her again. "It suits you. Now is that all?" --- (Ooh. I was wondering if there was a catch. :3 That's why Zed wanted to know more about James' power. Was there a specific time you wanted for this to happen?)
"What does he want?" Zed watched the screen. How did James know their location? The way he spoke into his wrist... he must have outside help. Isaac practically said as much. Maybe the guy was connected to some of his enemies. But how did they know? Did they have some sort of thermal scan? He was sure he hadn't been hacked. "Left!" He ordered, pressing a button, which began to close the door that led to another hallway. The new hallway was declining further underground. Zed frown grew deeper when more and more of his lab seemed to melt away with James' power.
As soon as James entered the room they had been in previously, Zed pressed a button that opened slats in the wall, sending blades slicing through the air towards the man.

"Oh no,I would never underestimate fire.Underestimation is what brought down the Roman empire."Boris answered."Well,that and their incapability to give someone a promotion.Stupid really."He brought back his icicle and snowball."But natural powers are easier to learn than mutated ones."

"They don't know yet.There's something that's experimental and could kill me if it failed."Jerome rested his forehead on the stick and started laughing."So I've been thinking.If my power is to adapt to the situation,why wasn't it able to just adapt to the gas?"He looked up at what he believed the clock was,hearing the ticking."My theory is that either there was something off in that gas,"He paused and looked to Rosie."or that if I didn't we would still be there or even dead trying to get out."

Rosie looked at Jerome for a moment, before dropping her gaze. "I'm sorry..." she murmured, her red hair sliding forwards to cover her face.

Rosie's eyes widened when he lifted her chin. Her hair shifted out of her face and a slight breeze circled them in the waiting room. "It's just... You've always done so much for me. You saved me from them, not once, but twice! You've protected me ever since, and have taught me so much... and yet... You're the one to pay the price." She was silent for a time. "It's my fault your vision is failing. If I hadn't pulled you into it, you would still have your sight."

Jerome smiled and shook his head,laughing."I chose to come with you.I chose to help you.I chose to take the gas.The only thing I didn't choose is kind of car those people chose to drive.Very,very ugly."He looked back up."And who's to say my eye sight wasn't going to fail some other way?This word's pretty crazy like that."

Masaki had the fireballs vanish in an instant with a thought "Never been much of a history guy. I learned the basics and that is about it everything else I just let go in one ear and out the other" he said "But yeah i guess it would make sense for a power you were born with to be easier to handle. So I'm guessing you were actually born with yours?"

"Yes,and it's even easier since ice tends to fall into the circle of natural powers."Boris answered."As does fire."He added.

Rosie smiled and giggled a little at his comment about the car. "I guess you're right." She glanced to one side. "I guess a better word to say, is... Thank you." Her gaze met his once more. It was something her aunt used to tell her. She used to say that it was always better to thank someone, rather than to apologize.

"There's that smile."Jerome chuckled and leaned back in his chair."And thank you.Without meeting you I might I wouldn't be allowed to bring dogs into public areas.Take that,system."He leaned forwards and stood up."Well,I think it's time we got out of here,this place smells funny."

Masaki rubbed the back of his neck "So that's what you meant by natural powers. I was thinking of a different meaning" he said before letting out a nervous laugh

Continuing to smile, Rosie jumped lightly out of her chair and took Jerome's arm. "So what are we eating today? My stomach tells me that it's about that time." Midstep, she glanced at the clock on the wall for affirmation.

"Natural can mean many things."Boris chuckled."It's all just words."
Jerome thought for a moment."I don't really care what we eat,so long as I get food into my stomach."He started thinking but he seriously couldn't think of anything.

(-waves to Chaos- Greetings, friend! ^^) --- Rosie took a deep breath when the exited out into the fresh air of the afternoon. "We could head over to my parents' place. I'm sure they'd be willing to share a meal with us," she suggested.

"Well,actions can get ya killed."Boris replied."Just look at everyone."He snorted.
"That seems like a great idea!"Jerome thought back to the first meal he'd had there."I like your mom's cooking."

"Great, then it's a plan! Oh look, there's the bus!" Still clutching Jerome's arm, Rosie rushed forwards, hoping to catch the bus before it was too late.
(There was one between Jerome, Rosie, Bastet and Rose. If you guys both want, we could continue, or we can just assume that Rose chased everyone off. I'm fine with either. ^^)

Jerome sighed as he was practically dragged to the bus."Let's just hope this bus knows where it's going."He chuckled.
