The Lovers are Losing (Virus) « Thread Started on Nov 8, 2009, 11:37am »
Lewis Clarke, Aerokinetic, Psychology Student, University of New York.
10:14pm
The night had been harsh, it had been such a long day. Lewis had been lost in such a state that his mood was almost going to kill. Primarily, he wanted to do some research into slum area’s of New York, you know, pay to speak to some trampy people. Lewis didn’t like calling them trampy people, so he decided to call them under-privileged. Therefore, he approached several people, the setting was almost out of a movie, the film was some horror, it was like a deserted town, like nobody had no electricity.
This shocked Lewis, people were living in cold, electrical-less houses, Lewis questioned if they knew what century they’re in. This made him think of England, if people like this were living like this in England they would have gone into some form of home, and get natonal benefits. However, this wasn’t England, and life wasn’t as rosey as that. Therefore, Lewis tried to stay away from large crowds and tried not to look like he had too much money, so he wore some glad-rags and then set off.
The day was okay, diverting large crowds was a mastery in itself, he had to stay away from most street corners, and therefore most of the deserted estate. Yes, a whole estate had no power, no warmth, and therefore it was very intimidating. However, Lewis wasn’t as scared as any normal person, his ability allowed him to have an inner confidence that he knew he could get himself out of some situations, resulting in Lewis being cautious, but not overly pre-cautious.
Lewis had stopped, it was too late and the inhabitants of this area were becoming slightly rowdy, like children when they didn’t have sleep. Alls Lewis wanted to do is ask them some questions on their environment, he didn’t think some people would actually annoyed about it, therefore, had come to the conclusion that he shouldn’t continue.
Lewis walking through the streets, trying to find his way out, it was dark already, and the winds was picking up, and it wasn’t himself doing it. Lewis looked around, he was surveying the area with his eyes, looking around, he noticed that he shouldn’t have been walking, and called a taxi. However, his iPhone didn’t have good reseption, so he was on his own, for now. As he looked around, there were a group of people that was behind him, there was a few, about 5 or 6 of them, they seemed to be sniggering and taunting, but not loud enough for Lewis to hear.
Lewis kept on walking, the wind seemed to change direction, coming behind from Lewis, the wind travelled some of the sound into Lewis’ ears, they seemed to be picking up pace, getting closer and closer. Lewis sigh, it was easy to tell what was going on.
Suddenly, they all seemed to be around him, circling around him, forcing Lewis to come to a stop. These people seemed to be all larger than Lewis, even being 6 ft 2 it didn’t scare some people away. Lewis circled, on the spot, they were all around him like dogs to meat.
“Do you have a light, mate?” One of the men, asked, it seemed that he was the leader of the group. “No, I don’t, sorry.” Lewis said, as he barged through them, making his exit known.
Lewis thought he was free for one moment, but they seemed to be around him all over again. “Now, that wasn’t very nice, was it?” the man asked, knowing that it was silly of Lewis to do that. “It was fine, but I can be rude if you want.” Lewis stated, his eyes flared as he ignited his ability. Clenching his fists, the winds around them seemed to mount up, above them. Only Lewis could see this. The man seemed to move his hand into a fist also, and therefore swing at Lewis.
As the man moved his fists towards Lewis, Lewis lowered his hands down, extending them lower to the ground. This was a gesture for his ability, the ability seemed to control the wind into a direct barrel, forcing itself down on the leader.
Lewis started to run, his eyes watering as the wind forced itself into his eyes, he bumped into someone, suddenly.

Abigail Abbot: Nosokinetic New York Visitor Somewhere in New York 10:14 P.m. Abigail had been on her merry way away from this so called shit hole of a place. She had walked down here by a mistake, which had ended in her being nearly robbed for all her belongs including the clothes she was wearing. Which included a white T-shit and a brown jacket over, it was unzipped since all the walking had made her sweat. She were also wearing a pair of blue jeans, which actually had gotten a hole on the left knee, after she had tripped fallen to the ground once after a very rude attempt at stealing her purse. The purse was brown and it were currently hanging from her left side, and down to the thigh of her right side.
She had met wild guys both good and bad before in Odessa, but these guys seemed a little too wild and dissrespectful for her taste, especially considering what she had been through the last week or so. She was trying to cope with it the best she could, which meant a lot of thinking while walking in New York. It was under one of those walks that she had found herself in the poorer parts of NY.
She had walked here for how long now? She did not know, there had happened so much that she had stopped keeping track of where she was or were heading. At least that was until someone was so rude as to bump into her. “Hey watch were your going!” Abigail said, trying actually to sound like she would be able to fend the person off, if he or she had malicious intentions. It was then that she noticed what was going on in front of her actually. It seemed that the wind was attacking someone, that was impossible she knew that. But still. She could actually see how the wind was beating down on the poor leader of the group.
”Oh god what is happening to that man!” Abigail could not help but sound really surprised not really scared. She remembered the conversation with Jenni, she had said something about someone shooting fire out of their hands. So why not shooting air at people? She had never actually believed she would meet anymore of people like her. She thought they were a rare kind, but here it seemed that she was meeting them one by one.

Lewis sigh, as he tried to recover from bumping into her. As he finished standing and getting his balance, he centred himself and stopped the wind. The group seemed to be at awe, and then turned to him and this girl he was somehow with. “Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on either!” Lewis said, it was obviously a lie, but his tone hopefully wasn’t over-done, but to Lewis he felt a bit over-zealous anyways.
The men seemed to walk towards them, not running, walking. Lewis stepped forward, and then in front of the girl, with one hand stretching in front of her body. “Leave the girl out of this, mess.” Lewis stated. His voice was stern and strong, like a mother protecting its child. The men sniggered, and laughed in their faces, this aggravated Lewis. Having people taunting him, even after some freak event, they must be desperate for something that Lewis had, but this girl seemed to have money also, she didn’t seem to come round from here either.
Lewis stepped forward; the men were about a yard away now. Lewis extended his hands forward. I’ve done it now, might as well go to hell whilst I’m at it. Lewis thought to himself, as he gestured his hands. His hands started to flow back an forward, the wind seemed to roar above them. Suddenly, Lewis clenched his hands, and then wind instantly knocked over one of the men, knocking him over by his chest, Lewis then waved his hands slightly, and the wind seemed to knock another one over, by his feet.
Even though two men had been knocked over, there were two more. “Stop what your doing, I said stop!” Lewis shouted, he shuffled his legs forward, bending the first slightly, Lewis dipped his body, and the wind seemed to make the man float in the air, and then fall suddenly. He didn’t float quite high, a meter or so, but the man still seemed to hit the floor hard.
The final man stopped, and saw the chaos around him; however, all of the men were soon to recover. I can’t play fairy much longer… Lewis stated, he was being to gentle with these men. “Do you know what they want, have you done something?” Lewis asked, turning his head slightly, his tone wasn’t anything harsh, more clam and polite.

Abigail was very horrified with what was happening, it seemed the air had decided to do a little Kick-boxing on the men. Even though they seemed to have hurt or attempted to hurt the guy who had bumped into her. She kept an eye on the victims for the horrifying air attack. It was impossible to explain this in any way possible, at least logical way. The only thing that could explain this was it being a person with power, that were doing this.
But for some reason the men did not stop from what the stranger thought of as an attack. She did not know why these men was so desperate to come for this bumping-stranger. “Do you know what they want, have you done something?” It hit her right in the face, very literarily, this was a robbery attempt, these men that were getting beaten right now, had attempted to steal from him. ”No!” Abigail said, she was breathing fast, nearly hyperventilating. She felt a prickle in her skin, and from her mouth.
And then it happened, the thing which was not supposed to happen. She had tried so hard to not have it happening, but it did happen. She could quite literarily see the black cloud coming out of her mouth. It did not waste any time. It flew fast towards the attacker, helped by the strong gusts of wind around the men. The air directed it, as if they were two forces working together. When the black cloud hit something terrible happened. The men began to turn black (Skin necrosis) And they began to cough, of course they were still taking damage from the air, but right now it seemed like they were in extreme pain, like if they were being eaten alive. Which actually fit very well with what was happening.
Abigail could do nothing but look in horror as the skin necrosis spread over the attackers. They were in pain that much was obvious, and it was not only because of the air hurling down on them. It was Abigails attacks too, or rather Abigail's power that was going a little defensive.
[ooc: The black cloud is the way Abigail sees her power, no one besides herself, and someone with similar abilities can see it, since it is infact millions of bacteria moving in the same direction.]

Lewis looked about, it seemed that all of the men seemed to be under attack by something Lewis couldn't see. Seeing this was something Lewis thought he would ever see, literally. The men seemed to be under attack by something, but it wasn't the air Lewis was manipulating. "Woah. what's going on..." Lewis spoke aloud, thinking that he was thinking it. Something that occasionally happened under extreme stressful situations.
The men seemed to fall down, one by one, a colaberation of Lewis' ability, and a mysterious attacking... thing. Lewis didn't know what to do, what to say. Everything that had happened hadn't been seen by anybody else, luckily enough. Lewis then thought about what had happened... I used my damn ability, infront of another human. Lewis thought to himself, he had never thought about the intricate details of such an event.
"Now, i'm not one to say this often, but do you know what's going on?" Lewis asked, trying to play an innoscent card. Luckily enough, Lewis hoped that she didn't see Lewis manipulating the air/wind about the area. Why is she even here, she doesn't even belong here... Lewis thought to himself, it seemed that this woman was creating more of an enigma than Lewis had hoped.
Turning around, knowing that all of the men seemed to be on the floor, Lewis faced this woman, instead of straining his neck any further than it already was.
Re: The Lovers are Losing (Virus) « Reply #5 on Nov 8, 2009, 1:27pm »
"Now, i'm not one to say this often, but do you know what's going on?" Abigail was very relieved over hearing that this guy, whoever she was, was not the one doing the air thing, and did not have any knowledge of whom was or what was eating the skin of the people. ” No I do not.” She said, trying to lie to both herself and to this stranger. She did not want to admit it, not got herself or to anyone else. She did not want to be connected with this damned power that kept making her life hell. It was evil, a minion of the devil and it had taken her body as a hostage.
She was a little scared, now that the screams of pain and agony were dying down, and the stranger had put his full attention at her. If only he would not look at me like that… Abigail thought. In her mind the way he was looking at her was like if he was judging her for something, like if she was in court or something like that, it was very scary. As if he was peering into her very soul, but that could not be true, she knew that. But then again, no one should be able to summon such horrific things as she could. Something like the seemingly invisible black cloud, was something not supposed to be on this earth, and even less hiding in her body.
Abigail hoped this man would not place the appearance of her, and the sudden skin necrosis together. She did not want to be looked at as if she was a witch or something, especially not considering the types of people that were in these parts of the city. Who knew maybe they would burn her? That was indeed a scary thought. She tried to force the dark thoughts away from her mind, and rather put in some brighter ones, like thinking about the fact that she avoided another robbery.

Lewis' ability of Aerokinesis was basically minicule compared to his understanding of body language. Learning psychology at such a high level had caused Psychological knowledge to be innate, Lewis could put himself in any situation, and know what to do when concerned about Body Language.
Throughout asking questions, Lewis did put two and two together, Lewis knew about abilities, and knew what he was doing, however, he knew facing away from the girl she could have done anything behind his back, literally. She's just another girl, like me, but then again, is she really like me... Lewis questioned himself, within his thoughts. Lewis didn't know whether to actually believe the thought, or to not believe it.
"Shall we go, like, carry on walking, any more finger-prints and we could look like criminals..." Lewis laughed when he said criminals, trying to lighten the mood was something he wasn't good at, trying to lift a mood wasn't exactly his best quality.
Lewis walked a bit, beckoning her to join him, he didn't really want to make anything less weird than it already was. "Freak wind... i guess" Lewis stated. Might aswell tell her, i've done it now. Lewis thought to himself.
Re: The Lovers are Losing (Virus) « Reply #7 on Nov 8, 2009, 2:16pm »
"Shall we go, like, carry on walking, any more finger-prints and we could look like criminals..." A slightly horrid facial expression came on Abigails face, when he said that they would be considered criminals because of such a trivial thing as fingerprints, she was a monster nothing less. Calm down Abigail, remember what they told you, you are not a monster, you're just misunderstood. Abigail thought as she nodded slightly at Lewis, she wanted to get away from there. But she was unsure if she could trust this stranger, he seemed good enough but she knew that right now, her best chances of not ending doing something like making people go all necrotic again, would be if she was with someone. Weirdly enough it seemed her power was triggered when she was in a state of heightened emotions.
Abigail was not stupid, that is why she had already figured out what triggered her ability. That was also why she had an idea about how she could avoid it activating. When she was with someone, like this stranger, she could feel safe and calm, since she was less likely to be a target for an attack or a violent action. Of course this was not certain but the chances was smaller.
Abigail followed Lewis she certainly hoped he knew his way around this place, since she was lost. "Freak wind... i guess” ” What do you mean by I guess That wind was insane, I think something was wrong with it.” Abigail tried to seem as normal as she could, she wanted to act normal, maybe because she wished she was normal. But she knew only about one thing that could cause such a freaky wind. And she was going to do everything she could to avoid having to talk about it, since it could easily end in her having to talk about what she could.

Hmmm. what do i mean by i guess... Lewis toyed with himself, such a secret should be shared, however there was always the feeling that once shared she could go and run off and tell the whole world about his ability. However, this was one of those situations where Lewis wanted to tell someone, and then if so, he would be like... himmm, what if i didn't, and visa versa, if he didn't tell her, he would question what would happen if he did tell her.
The situation Lewis thought must have been common for people like himself, yes, Lewis could comprehend other people being able to do what he can do, he wasn't going to be naive and think that he was the only one who could actually perform such a catastrophe. Having an ability, Lewis concluded, was like a gift, but was also a curse. Having such an ability that could save lifes, but also ruin them had tore Lews before, and he wasn't going to let it ruin him again.
"Look, i haven't been perfectly honest with you..." Lewis stated, letting the sentence trail on, he didn't know whether he should continue, but he had set the trap for his own fate to come and ruin him, so he decided to continue. "The wind, i think i know why that happened, and how." Lewis continued, he didn't say he had an ability, not just yet. However, There was the thought that he was running into things too fast; like a film done on such a short-space of time that it had to get straight into the good part.
Lewis wasn't a good part, he didn't want to reveal he had an ability, but he did as well. This decision wasn't made to be taken lightly, however Lewis' intelligence had taught him not to take things too hard, and try not to blame himself. However, he also knew that as the moment he said something grew longer and longer, he had to mention some other information.
"If you get me." Lewis stated, and scoffed at his own vague statement. He wanted to be out, he wanted to be open, she had seen the effects of Lewis' ability, and Lewis was also shocked that she wasn't running around screaming and asking questions, which lead Lewis to the fact that she must also know something else.
So many thoughts, so many idea, and not enough answers.

"Look, i haven't been perfectly honest with you... The wind, i think i know why that happened, and how. If you get me." What she had thought, had just been confirmed, this guy was like her. A person with an ability to cause havoc and chaos. Though it seemed this guy could control air, a much better, and not as evil and monstrous ability like her own. She would be more than happy to switch ability with this stranger who obviously knew more than he wanted to tell.
The only reason to why she wasn’t running, like every cell in her body told her to, was that this boy seemed to have answers. And Abigail really wanted those answers. Maybe he could tell her something about what she should do. He seemed to know how to use and what to use this curse she had, and that he obviously had too. Should I tell him?... She thought, while they were walking away from the scene of crime.
Abigail was very unsure of what to say or do, sure she had spoken with Jenni, another special like her. But this time it was Abigail and not the other person that were going to start talking about the power. She decided to continue asking questions about the statement he had made about knowing how that weird gusts of air had come. ”How? What do you mean?” Abigail asked, trying to get Lewis to answer the question more direct, than just coming with those vague statement.

It's clear she wants me to spell it out for her, but can i admit it to myself... Lewis thought to himself, he didn't like it when he brought his subconscious thoughts back into his conscious. Having known so much about psychology, he could control the three 'Freudian' aspects of his personality. The 'ID' aspect, which was the pleasure principle, the 'EGO' aspect of his personality, the mediator, the reality principle, and finally the 'SUPER-EGO' the punishing parents, morality priniciple
These, Lewis thought, made his personality, he didn't like keeping things in the subconscious aspect of his personality, and therefore serious matter thoughts would creep up, without his conscious permission. Suddenly, the thought came to Lewis. Why say it, when i can show it? Lewis thought to himself. Over the past few weeks the strength of Lewis' ability had gotten stronger, he had been able to control more of the air, and use it in a diverse way.
Lewis closed his eyes, igniting his ability, then, he opened them. They were the purest of whites, his ability was taking control, but not all of the control. Lewis raised his hand, limply, suddenly, howls of the winds suddenly roared down the street. C'mon now Lewis, don't stop now. Lewis thought to himself.
Lewis could see a large amoutn of leaves on the floor, lucky for him. He clenched his fists, he suddenly stopped moving. As he clenched his fists, a large wind ran past Lewis, ruffling his hair. Lewis could see where the wind was going, the leaves began to be consumed by the wind, raising up from the ground as Lewis began to make a small movement of wind, like a miniscule hurricane.
"Look." Lewis' voice was strong, determined, willfull, Lewis didn't want this girl to miss this. The leaves began to rise and rise, as the winds wrapped around them, howling, beckoning this girl to look at them.
Suddenly, but not by accident, Lewis stopped his ability, he blinked several times, and his eyes went to the dark brown that they were as usual. "What do you think." Lewis stopped there, not moving, not saying anything else.
Re: The Lovers are Losing (Virus) « Reply #11 on Nov 8, 2009, 4:19pm »
Abigail looked at the skillfully and very beautiful display of power usage. She could not help but smile in amazement as she looked at the leaves being played with by the wind itself, this boy certainly knew what he was doing. She envied him. He knew what and how to do his thing. But she hardly knew anything, it was unfair. “So you control the wind? “ Abigail stated she kind of liked that ability, it was a cool ability. Like in the comics, it was the kind of ability you gave to a superhero. And her power was the kind a villain had.
“Em… Not to… you know, seems pushy or anything, but how did you get your ability?” Abigail asked, trying to keep focus at his ability, and not give him any chance to ask her any questions. Since she had no idea what she should say, she could not exactly admit that as far as she knew, all she could do was to kill people. It was not exactly the best thing to tell people to make friends.
The only reason she had friends after her manifestation was that one of them was a precog and therefore had seen it coming, and the other one had seen the pictures the precog had made, and thereby also had seen it coming. “Emmmm…. How did you get such great control over your ability?” She then asked, attempting, hopefully successfully to give him more to answer to than time to think of questions to ask.

Lewis smiled, he was imressed by his own actions, more and more over the last few weeks he had been getting stronger, willfully and mentally, and there his ability must have gotten stronger, through both aspects of strength counting towards the strength of his ability.
"Well, i don't know, i always liked having control, and i guess it allowed me to control it" Lewis replied, he didn't really know what else to say, he couldn't exactly give a pep-talk about an ability he had no idea about, or even could see. It was also apparent that Lewis was the only one with control, which therefore posed the questions whether this woman had control over what she could do, and what she cold do with what she had.
"Control, is something i've developed over time, with weakness and strength put aside, i was left alone to develop, to control whatever this is" Lewis stated, more as a philosophical statement in any other way he could do. "it all comes in time, you learn what sets it off, you learn how to stop it, that's the beginning and paramount of importance." Lewis further explained about abilities.
"But before any more, what is your name, and i can whether people are lying..." Lewis smiled, he sounded jokey saying the second part of the sentence, knowing that he didn't need an ability to know whether someone was lying. "And no, i can't do that with an ability, by the way" Lewis laughed, as he awaited this woman to reply to his statement / question.
Re: The Lovers are Losing (Virus) « Reply #13 on Nov 8, 2009, 4:50pm »
Abigail listened to his little pep-talk about how to gain control of ones ability. So all she had to do was to attempt at triggering it on purpos? Not a very smart idea she would just kill someone. And there was nothing in this world she wanted to avoid than to kill anymore of it’s inhabitans. Killing was one of the greatests sins, not that she was religious, but still when a religion considered it bad, then it had to be something she shouldn’t do.
"But before any more, what is your name, and i can whether people are lying... And no, i can't do that with an ability, by the way" Abigail smiled more friendly at Lewis, she was not laughing since she took powers pretty seriously, but she was certainly opening up to this guy. Maybe she would soon start thinking about him as a friend rather than a stranger with a curse like she had. “Well My name is Abigail Abbot.” She said obviously not lieing, that was her real name, whatever she liked it or not. Though she liked it, it was a pretty name, unfortunatly it gave her pretty unlucky initials… The initials AA, could mean more than one thing. But she would have an easy time remembering where she had to meet if she ever became an alcoholic.
“And what is your name?” She said returning the question with another one obviously. Abigail did not know where they were going, or if they even where going anywhere in particular. Actually she had forgotten if they were even walking, it was weird, but it seemed that this guy Lewis had made her forget all the things she should be aware of. And instead moved her focus over at him.

Lewis smiled, he enjoyed this conversation. It showed that the two could mix together well, hopefully like before, against the two men, but more of a neutral level anyway. "My name, is Lewis Clarke" Lewis stated, his name wasn't as nice, it was sickening and English, he didn't like his name that much, but it seemed that he was stook with it. "You can call me Leo, it helps people remember my name if its associated with a star sign" Lewis smiled, it was better to say Leo, because it was like everybody remembered that.
"but the real question is, as reluctant as the conversation is, do you know what you can do?" Lewis asked, he knew throughout their conversation he seemed to be doing all the talking, doing all the sharing, but it was better that way. Not anymore from now. Lewis seemed to be determined about finding this person's ability, No, to Lewis she wasn't just a person now, Lewis wanted to find Abigail's ability.
"I could help, as bad as it could be..." Lewis reinforced his statement, he didn't want her to feel ashamed about her ability, it reminded him when he wasn't proud of his, well, when he wasn't as proud as he was now. This time was when Lewis was at his Nadir, he had just found out his ability, and needed some closer, however, there was nobody else with such an abiltiy, so it didn't help that he felt all alone.
Lewis could only get out of this feeling by using his ability, he first used it to help others, pushing things in the wind, making sure an environment was clear, it was silly, however each little thing seemed to make Lewis more and more proud of his ability. I guess i can only blame mother, she had never been there, never been there to help me Lewis thought to himself, as he waited Abigail to answer his question.
Abilities are like sandwiches, you get the right coverings around it, a friend, maybe a foe, then you're sorted. Lewis' ability allowed him to show the rest of the world, despite his already high confidence, that he was no push over, he hadn't used it in fights, he hadn't used it within arguments. He always had control, and therefore he always had control over his ability. It was only a plus plus situation, a good upbringing had brought Lewis where he wanted to be, now he was helping someone else.

"but the real question is, as reluctant as the conversation is, do you know what you CAN do? I could help, as bad as it could be..." Abigail shook her head, obviously the answer was no, but she decided to speak to. “All I know is that, whatever it is, It is lethal… but well, I might have another power, besides the one you saw.” Abigail said, obviously referring to the skin necrosis effect she had on those poor men. She did not know if she even could explain the other thing she had found out she could. She was not even sure if she understood it correctly, but she had to give it a chance.
“A few days ago, I began to felt this weird feeling, and then I would know when people was sick, and what had they had, and how severe it was.” Abigail explained, she had not figured out if the two powers was related in some way, but it seemed impossible, they were so different, not only in lethality, but also in what they did. She could imagine they could be related.
Besides that point she could not see how Lewis could actually help, sure he could give some advise, that seemed like it. They had different powers, different personalities. Abigail’s power had nearly made her commit suicide, Lewis on the other hand seemed actually to enjoy having his power. But even with those differences Abigail was still going to give Lewis or Leo as he wanted to be called, a chance. He seemed like a good guy and maybe he was the type of guy she needed. Someone strong and confident enough to actually not run away screaming like a little girl.
“How do you intend to help me?” Abigail asked it was a logical question. It was not like he had a guidebook or something, right? Well if he had, she would really want to read it. She was trying to be optimistic, but she kept falling down into being pessimistic instead.

Lewis had thought about this when she asked how he could help. It was the question that he hadn't prepared for, however it did some to mind.
It made Lewis remember when he first found out his ability, he couldn't control the wind, and therefore it would howl and snarl wherever he went, the wind would blow past him and knock over people, animals, bins whatever was around him would surcumbe to the harsh realities of his power. However, it took Lewis saving one babies life to allow Lewis to have control.
He was at the country side, and the wind was always busy there. He felt at piece as people who came close to the edge knew that the wind was bad, and raging, and they couldn't blame it on Lewis. However, there was a foolish woman, and her baby. She had brought them both near the cliff side, this was in England. The cliff side was rocky, and bumpy, and anything that would fall off would surely die.
And that is what almost happened, The mother had foolishly let go on the pram the dear child was in, and therefore the wind took poesssion of it. It wasn't Lewis' doing, however Lewis could right this elemental wrong. His ability raged, almost encapsulating Lewis in a form of life where his ability was always active. However, somehow, someway Lewis found that with some clarity he knew what was going on.
Lewis remembered pulling the wind against the coast, it took almost all of his energy, and therefore the baby was halted, the wind didn't take the babies life. Instead, which Lewis didn't know, the mother had jumped without any shout, scream or anything.
Lewis blinked again, and came back to the reality he was in, the memory from then on was like a horror film, and Lewis chose to neglect that memory, for now anyways.
"Simple, You can make me ill, the ill-est you've ever done, and try and make it better." Lewis stated, offering himself to the will of this person was not for the light-hearted, however, Lewis knew, like he did, the wielder of this ability would come to terms with it, and therefore gain control.

"Simple, You can make me ill, the ill-est you've ever done, and try and make it better." Abigail looked horrified at Lewis, was he serious? He could die, or worse become a freak. He could become both. She shook her head and moved slightly away. “No, NO I cannot do that. You could die… And I do not know if I could save you.” Abigail said, she looked away, obviously she lacked confidence in herself. And the fact that she had no experience in using her ability willingly, made it just that much more worse.
“There must be some other way… I do not want to harm anyone.” Abigail said, while trying to force her eyes back up on Lewis, but she found even that hard. The way he had said it, with so much confidence. It had made her doubt herself even more. It was not like she had controlled besides that what if she could not cure him? What would happen. The image of what had happened to the men was still very clear in her head, she could actually see it right now, the way the black cloud (her power) Had seemingly been eating their skin, making it into skin necrosis. It was horrible and she just could not let it go, even though she wanted to.
“Why would you offer yourself, you do not even know me! How do you know that I will not kill you on purpose?” Abigail nearly yelled, she was getting frustrated. The way he trusted her with his life, the way he expected her to do the so called right thing. To use her ability on him, and save him afterwards. She did not know what to do. She was torn between wanting to get control, and not wanting to harm Lewis. It was obvious what kind of inner fight was taking place right now.

Lewis completed disagreed, with everything she said. "Look, i was exactly like you, scared, afraid of what i could do." Lewis stated, his tone wasn't happy, slightly demanding, he didn't want to play nice with such a specific strong topic. "Control, you gain it or you never have it, luckily i was independant enough, i had nobody but myself, and i was glad for that fact, but you have me now, you have someone offering help" Lewis paused, taking in something of his own account. He was shocked at himself, he was so dependant on what he wanted, and it wasn't about him now, a passion fired within him, he wanted to help this girl no matter what.
"Look, i know that you can do it, even if you can't." Lewis stated, he could actually see it, there was something in this girl, she was so insecure about her ability that Lewis knew she had a great gift, and therefore she should, and hopefully will have great control. "With my help, you don't have to fear harming people; think about the things you could have done, if you had control... that can soon be reality." Lewis stated, he was so adamant on helping this girl, however, instead of being emotionally blackmailing, he was only offering truth and honest; evidently a perfect tactic, even presidents didn't do that.
"What i can do, yes, its great, but its nothing like the potential you have!" Lewis said, smiling, he was so enthusiastic about this, he knew she could do it, she only needed a good push. "I needed something to help me gain control, like a key, and i'm your key!" Lewis further stated, he was, and he knew without a shadow of a doubt that he had to help this girl, setting aside other things within his life.

What i can do, yes, its great, but its nothing like the potential you have! I needed something to help me gain control, like a key, and i'm your key!" At first Abigail only heard nonsense, talk that was meant to sound good, but in her ears only meant suicidal thoughts. But the last part of it, the fact that he seemed so confident in her, it was incredible and unbelievable. It was like his passion split into two, and moved over to her, giving her some of his courage. Though she was not sure how she should even activate it.
“ Okay, I will do it, but do not hate me if it fails. ” Abigail looked at him. As she tried to think of when her ability first activated, how she had felt at that very moment. It began, or so she thought. Her chest began to moved fast, as if not getting air enough. She fell to her knees, instantly she grabbed for her neck, as she tried to get air enough. She began to gasp for air, as she tried to say that she could not breath, but before she even got that far. It came out, it was smaller and less black than before, but it certainly was it. Her power had come out because she forced it out.
It moved around without direction. As if not knowing what to do. And what it was doing out. Come one do it, I know you want to... But the black cloud did not seem to respond, and Abigail still had problems breathing, but it was not as severe as before. Come on come on, come on! Why will not you do it! She screamed in her thoughts. Finally the black cloud seemed actually to notice that Abigail wanted it to attack something, but what? It seemingly floated around, a few meter above Lewis. Then it began to grow and spiral down at Lewis. Enveloping him totally. The cloud grew blacker, and it was seemingly attempting to start the skin necrosis, while also attempting to get into the body to eat Him from the inside
