Blowin' In The Wind

The Storm

The weather is a little overcast for this day, but it's not raining, even though it looks like it will. Right now, the four adventurers are relaxing at Everton Park. Most times they'd be having a catch or going for a walk, but they didn't feel like doing any of those things this time. So they're just sitting on the bench.

"We gotta say, Amanda, your speech yesterday was absolutely amazing!" Said Alex. "And it was so sweet of Paul to put it together for you." Said Max. "I'll say it was." Said Justin. "Yeah. But the most important part of yesterday is that Elsa taught me how to control my powers." Said Amanda.

"Huh? But you've always known how to keep them in tact." Max said. "No, Max, I mean when I'm stressed. You guys saw it before, they go crazy when I'm under pressure." Amanda said. "Oh, that's right. So what did Elsa say about controlling them?" Justin asked. "She told me to think about the things that make me happy." Said Amanda. "That's a good tip, I like it." Alex said. "Oh, and remember to breathe too." Amanda said.

The Russos all nod in agreement. "That reminds me of a riddle. It goes like this, 'I'm light as a feather. But no matter of strong, you can't hold me for long'. The answer is breath." Said Justin. "I get it, because it's impossible to hold your breath forever." Said Alex. "Exactly, Alex! Some people can hold it for thirty seconds, which I can never do." Said Max. "Hey, you tried, didn't you?" Asked Amanda. Max nods slowly. "But I was only able to hold it for ten seconds." He said.

A rumbling sound occurs. "Thunder?" Alex asked. "I see some storm clouds up there, so it looks like it's about to rain." Max said. "And I think I feel the wind picking up a bit." Justin said. "In that case, we better start heading back before the rain comes." Amanda said.

With a storm approaching, the four adventurers start making their way to the apartment before it gets worse.
