[Yeah I noticed that after a while...sorry bout that. I thought she tackled him but after reading it again I see. And I must admit I'm used to specific arpee styles so its gonna be awhile 'afore I get used to things. Just tap me and I'll edit I have no problem doing that. Sorry again. sweatdrop
@SSJ...the only reason I have him like that is cause of the whole female villian thing. Should be funny 4laugh though he's allowed to hit a girl that deserves it.]
After being berated, Erol was more meek and docile so wasn't expecting much from anyone. He had taken note of Megan's guardian speaking to her but wasn't paying much attention. That was until she was brought forward to apologize which he had no clue. "Hmm?"
The smile the girl gave him, made Erol frown. It didn't look right but before he could speak or react for that matter he'd been attacked with a kiss. "The hell?" He muttered low enough for Akila not to hear.
With the girl running off he was slow to react, looking up at Akila then shrugging he chased after her. "That's not funny! Get back here!" Kissed by a girl... and an ugly one at that. He wasn't too pleased. "You fatty." He saw her behind the tree making his way swiftly.
"Erol!" Akila sighed letting him run off ah well...he was a wild one anyway.

((S'ok, I thought I'd say something before it got too out of hand. ^-^ If you want, though, as Erol comes closer, Meg's likely going to try to run off back to the guardians. She can trip. ^-^ It does move the RP along a little faster when some assumptions can be made.))
IC:
"Dummy!" Megan yelled back to Erol at his insult, and squealed happily as he neared. Someone who challenged and took up challenges. This was what she was used to.
Megan ducked around the tree. She wouldn't go far from here, though. Much further and they'd get close to other kids, and that was something she didn't have any intention of doing.
AriyaLauna shook her head, "Why is it the crazy ones apparently attract each other?" Obviously, she hadn't yet realized how nutzy the entire group was.

Malcolm scratched the back of his head, releasing Dion from his other fist. (The bee had calmed down once Malcolm had.) "Umm..yeah...life energy, or something like that. Her name's Rachel." He crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the tree next to him. "And I'm Malcolm, if you didn't already know or anything."
He gave a weak smile, then glanced over towards Rachel. He felt a slight ping of jealousy that she was with that other boy and not him, but it went away before he even realized what had struck him.
Lowering her head and staring at the patch of grass beneath her feet, Elaine was suddenly unsure of what to say. "Well, Malcolm has the power of insect control. So now you know." She looked back up at Airaka, "And thank you for the apology."

Lorina turned to him, smiling warmly.
"Oh, ya. My names Lorina."
She nodded her head, and following his eyes over to Rachel and the other boy, a look of pure curiosity shining on her face.
"So she can make things live, and die?"
A shiver crept over her as she looked back at Malcom, green eyes now showing slight worry.
"Imagine what would happen if she used it on us! We would all be dead!"
Airaka nodded her head,
"Oh... Lorina can shift sizes."
She looked down at the grass Elaine had been looking at, before glancing back up at her, and sticking out her hand.

[Okay, but we'll have to add other kids in the mix eventually. 4laugh ]
Erol picked up his pace heading for the tree being called a dummy was annoying enough but none of it was making him mad. In fact it was rather fun tossing insults around and not getting in trouble for it. "Ugly!" He shouted in response stopping at the base of the tree, he inched his way to the other side hoping she'd be there.
Akila chuckled, "Yes. It does boggle the mind." Akila commented, "At least their having fun, I thought I was going to be subjected to a meet and run episode." Watching the children one last time Akila scanned the garden noting the others in the area. Blinking she caught a glimpse of the interactions but they were out of earshot to actually get the details. Shrugging she leaned back on her heels smiling. "So, if you don't mind me asking. What does Megan do? Her powers I mean." Akila asked curiously.

((Heh, whenever you want to. ^-^ Erol can tag Megan and run toward the others, maybe?))
"Booger-eater!" Megan yelled back delightedly. She had already skipped a few feet from the tree, though she'd done so backwards and nearly toppled over. It gave Erol a chance to get closer, though she was still trying to bounce out of reach.
AriyaLauna nodded in agreement to Akila's first statements, then smirked a bit at the question, "She has never-ending vocal chords no matter how loud and long she's yelled all day, and a will of steel." she winked and shook her head, "She mimics other powers." AriyaLauna glanced over at the children, happy to see that Megan was enjoying herself, "I don't know if she can mimic more than one at a time or not. What ability does Erol have?"

Oh darn! Akila thought, she wasn't up to speed on how to get Erol to control his powers better but she was working on it. The only problem now was how would another be able to handle his emotional based abilities. "Er...well he's got shockwave control. It's pretty simple aside from the fact that if he's worked up enough they go haywire." she shrugged he was fine right now so no need to worry. And thinking of it, Megan had some pretty interesting abilities herself. "Mimicry that's definately a plus. Would come in handy when you need more power eh?" Akila smiled as the kids seemed interested enough.
Erol darted out toward Megan noting her slip up and quickly tagged her on the shoulder. "Butt muncher!" He shouted, "Your it!" And quickly hurried off in some random direction noting a young boy and a girl with strangely colored hair in his way.
He smiled waving his arms. "Make way or be plowed!" He shouted and darted past them to hide behind a tree.

Elaine shook Airaka's hand. "Size-shifting...that's pretty neat. How big or small can she get?" She glanced over at Lorina, who seemed fairly normal in size. "Hopefully it's not too extreme," she said with a laugh.
A blank look crossed Malcolm's face..."Umm...I'm not really sure. She made a plant at the agency grow back to life in front of me, so yes?" His eyes darted to Erol and Megan, who looked like they were playing tag. He tapped Lorina on the shoulder, pointing to them. "Wanna go play?"

"Oh..." Lights? Her power certainly seemed interesting. She could bring things back to life. Did that mean she could bring a dead person back? "That's really interesting." Raleigh muttered still wondering about her abilities.
Raleigh was a proud young boy and he liked nothing better than to show off his prowess. Holding his head high and his brown eyes sparkling, he looked around for a possible item. He could have used the grass of course but that would be definitely unimpressive. Something larger and stronger would be needed. Of course it would be harder to control but he could do it. He knew he could.
The seat! Ignoring the boy and girl who wre currently chasing each other, them being beneath his notice and all, he nodded towards Rachel. "Watch that seat over there closely." Grinning Raleigh stretched out a hand to the seat that Ruriska was sitting on. His chest began to constrict and his vision blur, but the grin remained and with a small gasp he pushed with his powers. He could then describe to himself how he wanted it to look like. Unfortunately he could do nothing for personality.
What do you need? Like a dog.
Ruriska was humming lightly herself when the widen seat contorted beneath her. "What the ********!" Falling sideways off the seat Ruri landed on the ground with a loud thump. The bench seemed to contort and swirl, moving towards where Raleigh and Rachel were sitting. Raleigh's face was screwed up in concentration, a bead of sweat dripping down his nose. The hand that reached towards his growing creation was trembling.
"Cut the crap Raleigh!" Ruriska had managed to get to her feet and was brushed herself up, a not so happy look on her face.
"Come on..." The wood, joined buy any leaves of twigs on the ground, formed slowly into the shape of a large dog. It was solid and burly, the wood from the bench being the main feature. Its legs were strangely elongated and the head was heavy and large.
Finally, it was finished and Raleigh let his arm drop. As he felt his connection to the wooden dog fade away he took a deep breath. They were separate again. With his head high once more he spoke in loud order. "Come here!"
The creature swung its head his way and then began a slow walk towards him.

"Oh!" Rachel watched the boy and girl ran at them and scrambled up to move aside. Seeing Raleigh ignore them and start doing something, probably using his power, Rachel decided to do the same. She really wanted to see what he could do.
Rachel giggled as the seat tossed off the boy's guardian and she let out a very bad swear word. Would she say that often? Nonethelesss, the entire image was incredible funny and Rachel kept on giggling.
Interested, she watched how the bench was contorting and swirling and was slowly forming itself into some sort of life form. She wondered how that worked. Was the bench already alive? Bleh, if only she wasn't so tired, then she could have looked at it.
As the creature formed into the shape of a large dog, had let out a gasp and was staring openmouthed at the creature. "Th-that's amazing! Oh! He's so pretty. Oh!"
That was so pretty... she couldn't keep her gaze off of the dog. Of course, there was nothing pretty about it, but Rachel considered everything alive pretty.
Keeping her eyes on the dog still, she asked Raleigh: "So what's your name?"

Pretty? Not a word he would have used to describe it but it was definitely cool. Listening to Rachel giggling he grinned a little, glad she'd found his little display amusing.
Raleigh smirked; he was tired but was quickly regaining his energy. "Raleigh. My name is Raleigh." Creating a creature while aware of it was a lot harder then a frightened reaction, when it just came naturally. He was proud of himself and he was sure Ruriska would be too once she stopped swearing and had a look at the whole picture.
"And your name?" The boy asked as his creation moved ever closer, coming to a stop only a few spaces away, and stood towering over him. It seemed to have no emotions, and ignored everything else around it.

"Well, nice to meet you Raleigh. I'm Rachel." She gave a nod and looked over at the dog again and reached out to pet it.
As she let her hand rest on the dog for a moment, she marvelled at the life she felt beneath her hand and the strangeness of the substance it was made off.
Of course, Rachel knew that everything was life, even dead twigs and refined wood, such as the bench had life in it, but to gather so much life into something that possesses so few... Rachel found it quite remarkable.
"I like it." She smiled happily.

Raleigh nodded in a polite manner but kept his eyes on the dog. When Rachel reached out for it he tensed visibly. From the point it had began moving on its own he'd lost contact with it. It could be commanded but he could feel nothing from it. It was another being altogether.
The dogs head swung up a little bit, and it eyed Rachel in a dead and unnerving fashion but made no move to attack. Raleigh sighed and too reached out a hand. "That's a good boy." He muttered, a grin growing on his face.
Meanwhile Ruriska had moved closer. "You just had to show off didn't you Raleigh?" But even as she said that she was grinning widely, incredibly proud of her boy.

Rachel was absolutely fascinated. This must have been the most interesting thing she'd ever seen. "It's so strange. I think it's alive, but it's also not alive." She still had her hand resting on top of the dog.
Elvira, who had been eying the two children and the creation of the dog, now came over, slightly worried. She looked at the other woman standing there and smirked, thinking of the fall she had made. "Hi there, I'm Elvira, Rachel's guardian." she extended out her hand for Ruri to shake it.

"It's kind of alive. It's... apart of me, yet not me." Raleigh shook his head. Explaining these things was just too darn hard. Running a finger down the dog's muzzle he wondered if it could actually feel his touch. It was hard, like wood, but warm and living. "It's different. It's unique." Raleigh frowned and then smiled. "I think I should give it a name."
Ruriska was revelling in her kid's greatness when Elvira approached. In such a mood she was very amiable and willing to talk. She shook the womans hand warmly. "Ruriska, Raleigh's guardian. Nice to meet you. So how are you finding your new job?"
