After the incident with my water two weeks ago I hadn't seen marlock again but Dr Carlan had come in a few times over the weeks with more water to test my ability again yet it didn't work, I had a known I wasn't a water elemental as I knew they could control water I had seen it but I hadn't seen them able to control the temperature of it as it always stayed just a moving liquid.

I didn't want to let them know this though as it could be dangerous for me if they found out anything more about the abilities we could possess.

I had been trying on my own and found my mood could effect the water, like how my hair changes colour with my mood which it did still but it would go back to white once I had calmed. When I was upset the water got a lot colder and when I was angry... Well it started bubbling.

No one in my village could do that but I had heard of it before. My ability was called thermokinesis.

The excitement at finding my new ability was drowned out though with my declining health, I didn't have much strength to practice and I was quite sick unable to hold down most of the food I had been given each day. Dr Carlan wasn't too worried though which was suspicious in itself and gave me so medicine that she said should help.

I had also noticed my body changing which I tried to chalk up to 'becoming a woman' however I wasn't so sure these days. I had gone from a mostly flat chest to a C cup which was scary in itself and I was also feeling and looking bloated a lot which was strange as I hadn't been any to eat much. It was also well past my period but with the stress and trauma of these last months I didn't think that was something I could worry about especially with my health decline. I wouldn't expect my body to work naturally any more.

I tucked myself into be watching the animal documentaries again as I slowly got tired and drifted off to sleep.

*Dream/flashback*

I was younger, playing outside my house in our old village with prim waiting for mum to come home from her outing out of the village for supplies with a few of the other woman.

Down the worn main path of the village i could see Mrs Darcy cradling her big belly as she watched her smallest child a boy play in the dirt a few feet Infront of her. She was laughing at him as he started to fling small clumps of mud at her. It sprayed her dress, face and hair but what caught my eye was that Mrs Darcy's normally dark blue hair was now a light blue almost white.

Intrigued I wondered up the path until I was getting sprayed with mud too and I started laughing along. " Mrs Darcy can I ask you something?" I asked as her little mud creature started playing with some sticks now. "Of course my dear fire away" she beamed at me.

"Why is your hair that colour now?" I asked out of curiosity.

" Well I'm not sure why it is this colour to be honest with you, however it happens to a few of us woman sometimes. Did you know it actually happened to your mother's hair too?" She said. I was confused for a second and looked at her puzzled " really? Did it turn back to normal?" I asked.

"It did actually, your mother's hair turned a very very light shade of purple. Actually the exact shade of purple your hair is just a lot lighter." She paused.

" Why would it turn my shade of purple?" I asked exquisitely

" I'm going to guess it was because she was pregnant with you at the time, like I am now with this little one" she smiled as she caressed her belly.
