After what had happened the day before, you decided to keep what happened to you and Sonya to yourself. You didn't get a lot of sleep, despite Sonya being right there. You had let your parents know that you were going to delay your departure for the next day or two.

When morning had come, Taylor was with Umbreon, Kalie was at Skorupi's throat... yet again... and Sonya was with your parents and the egg. You had stepped outside and walked away from your house. You had gotten to the top of the small mountain that Sonya had taken you up at one point. You were looking at your hands, trying to recreate what happened yesterday despite the shock you experienced. You tried clenching and unclenching your hands quickly, but that didn't work. You tried to recall the time when it first happened, letting out a slightly irritated sigh.

"Come on... fire! Fire!" You tried to clench and unclench again as you spoke up, but it didn't do anything. You growled a little bit, looking at your hands. You shut your eyes, taking a deep breath before exhaling. You tried to think about how it all happened, then you started to relax a little more. You tried to clear your head and just think. What was the trick? Until you could figure out how to make it happen, how were you going to tell.... You let out a frustrated sigh. What was going through your head right now? Maybe you were just making it up. Maybe it was because you were too stressed and your eyes made it all up. Opening your eyes, you scoffed at yourself, thinking that you could somehow conjure fire. As your eyes opened completely, you gasped loudly as you saw fire in the palm of your right hand. You freaked out, screaming a little while flailing your hand up and down in an attempt to get it off! The small bit of fire hit the ground, and you saw a small scorch mark on the ground where it had landed. You looked at it, then looked at your hand. There wasn't any burn on it, and surprising enough, you hadn't felt any pain. You looked at yourself wide-eyed, confused and trying to wrap your mind around how you did that. Hundreds of thoughts were going through your head, but you let out another sigh, trying to clear your head. You took a deep breath, thinking about the fire that was just in your hand. You tried to visualize it, and in just a few seconds, you saw a flame appear in your right hand again. You gasped, but not as loudly. You held it in your hand for a moment, studying it like it was some creature you've never seen before.

"(Y/n)? What on earth are you doing here?" You jumped a little, and when you turned your head, you saw your ex, Britney come up on the other end with a Kabutops! You tensed up, quickly turning around and hiding your hands behind your back. You looked behind you and saw the cliffside a few dozen yards away. Well... if she was up here to throw you off... she was going to have to really throw you. You looked back, swallowing as you started to feel sweat rolling down your head.

"U-Uh... h-hey Britney... uh... what... what are you doing up here?" Britney looked at you confused with her Kabutops behind her.

"I could ask you the same thing. I heard a scream and came up here to see what was going on." You looked at Britney, feeling more sweat rolling down your head.

"U-Uh... right... I uh... I heard that too...." Britney looked at you annoyed.

"Really (Y/n)? I know that was you. Don't try to hide it. You're horrible with confrontation, much less lying." You swallowed again, hoping that the fire on your hand wouldn't expand and grow. Britney looked at you with a scowl, then let out a sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose and tilting her head forward.

"Look, (Y/n), a bit of me..." she let out another sigh as she raised her head and removed her hand. "a bit of me is glad it's you. I've been... I've been wanting to talk to you for a little while now. It didn't really help that afterwards you blocked me on your phone and your parents...." You really started to sweat. If she got close enough to you, she would be able to see the fire in your hands. If she saw that, you would be in a lot of trouble. Maybe not with Britney, but you were scared to think what would happen if your parents or Sonya found out.
