Yuuko had finished quite a bit of her food, and was glad that Endrin had returned her smile, even if weakly. They needed to at least form some kind of a pact here, and they needed to make sure that they were going to be there for one another. Nothing was worse than not having any friends, and she knew that from expirience. After all, the kids had all left her because of her Alice.
"Hey, you know, Endrin, this is really fun, you know? Maybe if we've all got the time, you, me, and Autumn can all go and do something. After all, you're right, we do need to stick together. We can start hanging out and stuff like that all the time so you know...we'll have our own little family." She smiled and finished the rest of her burger, the potato salad had been gone in the first few minutes, she was quite a big fan.
"And you know what? This cafeteria food is really quite good."

It was pretty good actually way better then his old school's food that was for sure. Though it wasn't like having better food than his od school was that hard to do. He was surprised that it was edible but not only was it edible it was delicious and there was a wide variety of choices. He took his stuff and pt the garbage and put it in the garbage can next to them. He saw she was almost done her self but wasn't rushing her. Instead he gave her a friendly smile.
"Well it is certanly nice to know that there are people here that I can trust. I mean I am not so sue on the school yet and if it will be to friendly. But, yeah ou me and Autumn should all hang out sometime."

"Having second thoughts about the teachers?" Yuuko grinned and chuckled a little, knowing that it was easy to become intimidated by the teachers at that school. After all, they each had their own unique Alice just like the students did, and the even scarier part was that they could control it. Well, all except for Mr. Bostalk, but he was relatively harmless since he tried his best to be a nice guy.
"Yeah, I'm sure Autumn would like to get out of the dorm as well." She had to stop a malicious grin from spreading across her lips and instead crammed the rest of the hamburger into her mouth so she would say nothing. As she continued to chew that, she brought her tray over to the trash can and, when she was sure that she wasn't going to burst out laughing, she put it where it needed to go and returned to Endrin, having now swallowed the food.
"So, what about some of the other kids in our class? They're pretty nice, well...I wonder about Xhosa more than some of the time. But that girl Yukie's pretty nice, isn't she? And just think, there are so many more students out and about!"

"Well the other students seem nice enough but we are all still adjusting who knows how they will turn out when they are comfortable. And also I am worried the the indipendant classes will turn in to little groups and probably won't be to nice to the other groups. Ya know what I mean."
Endrin himself was in the Active ability class. This was because he didn't have wings but could fly otherwise he would be in one of the other classes. Just one diffrence switched his class but it was only natural that you would become closer to those that shared similer abilities with you. He wanted to learn more about the girl that sat accross from him though and decided it was safe to ask a question or two.
"So whats the best thing you have changed in to with your Alice?"

Yuuko had to think hard about that question, since there were a lot of things she had changed into. There was one time where she had scared her parents by accidently turning into a burgler, but they immediately calmed down once they realized it was her and resumed to ignore her. So no, that couldn't have been the best one since they barely even remembered it anymore.
"The time where I told some people at school that I could make Idina Menzel appear, and they wouldn't believe me. So I tried as hard as I could to control it, and poof! To them I looked like Idina Menzel. It was great, and needless to say I was very pleased with myself. I've never had that kind of concentration since." It seemed that she was happy to explain incidents involving her Alice without pushing his too much. Endrin didn't seem to enjoy talking about it, so she would not force it upon him in any way at all.
"Still, I won't be able to say that for sure until I've died. This will be going on my whole life I guess. What class will you be in on Fridays? I'll be in Active Ability, but I would like to be in a Special class. Not for controlling my Alice, but just for seeing some of the very unique ones." Yuuko then realized what she had said and sighed, knowing that it had come out wrong.
"Not to say that the ones in Active Ability won't be unique, but just that...oh you knwo what I mean, right? There's a reason it's called Special."

Endrin had talked to some of the teachers and knew one of the other teachers powers. He was the oldest on on campus a Mr. Nohman or somthing like. HE was special and his didn't look like anything special but Endrin liked it a lot. He wanted it to be used on him permanatly so he would never have to deal with his again. But Mr. Nohman had refused saying that there was nothing wrong with his powers and part of learning ot use them was learning to accept them.
"Well one of the teachers. Mr. Nohman has a special power though you can't see his.... It makes it so others can't use their Alices. I asked him to use it on me and keep it so I wouldn't be like this but he said no. That I needed to learn to use mine. But I guess I will see you in the Active class cause I am an active ability type."
Endrin gave a small sigh and decided to go a little more in to his Alice since she as offering up information herself it was only fair.
"I can control mine decently enough I can use it whenever I want and only rarely when I don't. I just get really tired fast cause I don't pace myself. I first found mine when I was getting beaten up by some bullies and couldn't get away."
Endirn paused a moment before decideing that like Autumn he could trust her. She was nice enough and if she hated him for his power it was fair enough. But he would give her a shot.
"If you want.... I will show you my Alice...."

"Sure! I'd love to see your Alice. After all, I'll probably see it in class anyway, so why not?" Yuuko said with a smile, excited to see her friend's Alice. She was pretty accepting of other people's abilities since her own was so outrageous at times. It hurt her to think that anybody would be cruel enough as to say something about somebody's own unique talent that would make others feel awful about it.
"And hey, I'm sure your Alice is just fine. You should have no reason to think that Mr. Nohman should put a barrier around it. You seem to have a lot of control since I don't see anything out of the ordinary with you," she said, trying to comfort him so he wouldn't be so shy with his Alice. It wasn't fair for him to be scared to show her anything since she was able to show him everything about her Alice.
"So, where should we go to see this elusive Alice? After all, I doubt the cafeteria is really the place..."

Endrin took her hand and led her out of the cafeteria. He wanted a more private place to show her since he was still a little uncomfortable with it and all. He went through the campus with her until they were defenatly alone and then turn to face her.
"Ok I will show you.... I am going to have to ask you to hold on to me tight for saftey reasons."
Endrin's voice was surprisingly calm and unwavering. This was dangerous business and he was not gonna mess around and get all blushy when she hold on to him. He had carried a few people before and it wasn't a big deal. It was just normally they got all mean afterwards seeing that he was a freak.
"You can still back out if you want..."

Yuuko nodded, puzzled, and slid her arms around him, holding on as tightly as she could even if nothing was going on. Her arm muscles bulged a little at the pressure she was giving off, but that didn't bother her. Nothing about this bothered her, it really excited her. Blood was pumping through her veins at speeds she could not even begin to think of. It was exciting, yes, it would be an adventure.
"I won't back out. Show me, I want to see," she said coolly, determined to see just what it was Endrin was making such a big secret. That was perhaps what made it such an exciting thing, the fact that he had kept this a secret. And now she got to know that secret. How many others had he shown? How many other girls? Her eyes closed tightly as she thought that and she mentally slapped herself. What right was it of hers to be thinking things like that?
"I'm ready."

Endrin nodded this was the third person not related to him he had shown ever. The first was a kid that was getting beaten up with him so the bullies saw him too but that didn't count. The kid freaked out and started to attack him too. The second was Autumn and she was understanding and it was because of that he was ok showing Yukko. Who knows he may even show it off in class if it went well. They would see. Endrin wrapped his arms around Yuuko as well and held on to her tight since he didn't want her to get hurt.
"Ok here we go"
Just like that they began to rise in the air his Alice kicking in. Unlike most of the students he could control his but he couldn't control the energy it consumed so he got tired easy. He didn't take her as high as Autumn but instead went faster and zoomed around campus a bit making sure not to be seen. He loved flying but he didn't want to be a freak. That was why he wanted to fly a lane or somthing.

Yuuko's eyes shot open and widened as she saw where they were going and how they were doing so. So that was Endrin's Alice! He could fly without the use of any wings, as was insanely obvious by the fact that nothing was protruding from his back. Now this was an Alice that she really liked in a man, but the thing was, he wasn't her type of guy. She realized that the instant they started out on the "date". No, she needed somebody more outgoing, more adventurous, somebody who wasn't afraid to speak out.
"This is a wonderful talent, Endrin! I'm so surprised that you want to keep it hidden!" She called over the roar of the wind that was resisting them as she continued to hold on. No, she knew who had won this battle and it was Autumn, even though she had not even been in the fight. Yuuko had already set her plan in motion, and now she was getting her own benefit as well.

Endirn shook his head at Yuuko's words. It was not a wonderful talent at all. It was a curse. One he wanted to be free of. He despretly wanted a limiter but Mr. Nohman had said no. Maybe one of the other staff would put a limiter on him. Endirn's energy was going quickly though. And he had to land and was barely able to do so before he fell over in a coughing fit unable to breath. He out did himself there and now was paying the price for him showing off.
This was not just from his Alice but he also had a slight breathing condition as well that when he got worked up it took over and he had trouble breathing. He had an inhaler for it but it was in his dorm room since he didn't expect to fly and certanly didn't know he would get this tired.

"Endrin?" Yuuko asked, scared and confused at the state he was in. He was breathing at least, but she wasn't sure what to do to get him back to a regular breathing. Asking him what was wrong sure wouldn't help, so she had to figure out something to help stabilize him.
"Oh God...what do I do?!" She asked herself, frantically looking around for anybody to help. But there was nobody, they were all alone, and she was going to have to help him if things got rough. Maybe they wouldn't, maybe this always happened when Endrin used his Alice. Yes, yes that had to be it! He would be okay!

Slowly Endrin started to stop his coughing fit. He cursed himself mentally for not pacing himself but he had no clue how to do that yet. He could control direction hight and speed decently enough but not consumption. It was a scary thing and one of the reasons he hated his Alice so much. He did not like being in a condition like that and it happened when he went to fast to high or to long. At least he was able to land fine.
In between his coughing fit he managed to gasp out that he would be fine. He just needed a moment. Though now he really felt the fool. He had fumbled really bad here and she would probably tell Autumn which would make her worry as well. That was not somthing he wanted to do to her. Still gasping for breath he also managed to gasp out.
"Don't tell Autumn.... please."

"I won't tell Autumn," Yuuko said immediately, placing a hand on his shoulder as she ran through in her head things to do. He didn't look like he was getting much better, and worrying about Autumn and whether she would know couldn't be the best thing either. Oh why didn't she know what to do or what to say? She gulped, hoping that by some miracle something good was going to happen.
"Endrin," she said quietly as she looked around for anybody to help her, "do you need anything? Should I get something for you?" Her mind was racing, her blood pumping through her even faster. Was this an adrenaline rush? She had never expirienced one, so she couldn't be quiet sure, but she had a feeling that it might be.

Endrin continued to recover and he knew he was going to be ok. His breathing was slowly returning to normal and his vision was clearing up. He was able to sit up now even. He waited a few moments before speaking.
I will be fine.... I just exerted myself a bit to much. It happens a lot when I use my Alice. I can't control how much energy I use and I have a breathing disorder. I have an inhaler in my room but I will be fine now. Sorry to scare you."
Endrin started to blush a little bit feeling really embarrased now that he had lost it in front of both Autumn and Yukko. If he was going to learn to use his Alice he needed to practice but this always happened. That was one of the reasons he wanted a limiter.

Yuuko sat back, breathing deeply as she tried to calm down the natural rush her body had given her. It subsided just as quickly as it had come, but she could still feel the rapid beat of her heart. How strange, how strange indeed that this had happened, but she wanted to keep herself as collected as she could for Endrin's sake. She could freak out back in the dorm if she needed to.
"Yeah...it's okay. You just kind of scared me there. Are you sure you're fine? Do you want to go back to the dorm perhaps?" she knew that maybe asking the question was a bad idea, but his safety was more important than his pride. If he was going to wear himself out like taht just to show her his Alice, then she should at least bring him back to his dorm safely.

Endrin shook his head in a definate no. He would be fine as long as he didn't use his Alice like that again. He still wanted to salvage the rest of the night if he could, after all he had wanted to show her a good time and let her know more about him. Well now she knew one of the reasons that he didn't use his Alice. It was dangerous to his health and he felt like a freak as well as embarrassed. He would much rather randomly fly off then to almost die from it.
"No lets keep going."
Endrin did his best to put on a charming smile as he stood up an wiped the dirt off of his clothing. Then he looked back up in to Yuuko's eyes. His eyes were still sparkiling in anticipation not wanting to end the night because he had been stupid.
"What would you like to do now Yuuko? I would offer you another ride but that may not be best right now.... maybe another day? But anyways we still have a whole night to do stuff."

Yuuko nodded slowly and she got to her feet a bit unsteadily. His little episode had freaked her out more than anything she had ever expirienced, and she felt as if it was all her fault for causing it. Though her uneasiness was being drained by Endrin's talking and she wondered if it was really her that he couldn't handle, but himself. Was he pushing himself too hard?
"I've gotta hand it to you," she said with a weak smile, brushing the dirt and grass off of her jeans, "you really know how to get a girl all riled up, don't you?" Her smile didn't fade, she knew she had to try and sustain it. Whatever was going to happen with their night now had to be positive at least. Endrin didn't want to go back, so she wouldn't make him, but what else were they to do now?
"Well, I'm not quite sure what to do now. We've had quite a night already. Let's see...what else is there to even do around this campus? One-hundred acres and it feels like we have to make our own entertainment around here."

Endrin knew exactly what Yuuko meant this place was rather dull in it's way but he still didn't want the night to end on such a bad thing. This would probably make her a lot more hesitent to be with his and he wanted to keep her as a friend so he thought about what they could do then it hit him. They were not to far from the playground and they could like swing and stuff. That was always fun.
"Well we can always go to the playground. They have swings and slides and all kinds of things there. It is a short walk from the dorms too so then if somthing happens we can get back fairly quick. What do you say?"
