"Ok, Listen up everyone today is simple. We're going to do personalized exercises to target your power. All the personal powers should meet up with Sean, cuz... I don't do that stuff." Everyone just stared at Felix confused and he just sighed. "Vad fan? GO!"
"Personal Powers follow me!" Sean called out as some people went to join him. I hesitantly glanced between the two and yelled out in frustration as I finally turned to follow Sean. Caz shot me this confused look and I shrugged as I followed everyone into a different part of the mountains. I stayed in the back with my hood up and watched as everyone got into little groups.
"Roman?" I jumped hearing someone call me out and I frowned. I turned to see Logan standing there confused. "What are you doing over here?"
"Hey, Roman Reigns!" I groaned as Virgil slapped my back causing me to stumble forward. Sean narrowed his eyes and walked over as Virgil laughed out loud... very loud. Actually, it was Virgil who had caught his attention.
"Roman? May I ask why you've decided to join us today?" I looked up to see Sean smiling but I couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated. "You do have quite the power but I wouldn't call it a personal..."
"Actually Sir... about that." He raised an eyebrow and I looked down. "It would seem I actually do have a person power. One I wasn't aware I had."
"Wait, was this why you dragged our asses to that mall the other day?" Virgil spun himself around and I nodded. "Well, shit. I was just kidding."
"This... This is an interesting turn of events." Sean said still smiling. "You also made a good choice following me then. It would be better for you to get a grasp on this new power before strengthening your first one more. Closes the gap between them."
"Yeah... I just... uh... I don't exactly know what to do about it." Sean narrowed his eyes in confusion and I just shrugged. "I mean, what exactly can you do for... Energy perception."
"And that would be the reason he's always getting sick." Logan said as he shook his head in disbelief. " I assured Patton that all that was unnecessary, I assume now he'll be forced to agree." And with that Logan walked off, Virgil just shot me this awkward smile before following after him.
"Don't worry about them. Most Personal kids have already learned the current exercises they need to be doing. Right now, my job is to be teaching you yours." He gestured for me to follow him and I did looking back to see Caz just standing there, still confused. He must be so bored. Classes like this are meant to strengthen your powers but if you don't have any... you're sitting and waiting. "So, Roman. Can you tell me how you found out?"
"Well, at first it was just a hunch. Weird things have been happening. It wasn't like when I found out the first time." He laughed looked back at me smiling.
"No... I suppose not. Personal powers tend not to be as..."
"Flashy?" He laughed again and nodded. He brought me over to this giant boulder and spun around.
"So... Energy Perception huh?" I nodded and he ran a hand through his brown hair in thought. "Well, this one might be a bit tricky. If it were manipulation we could work on the physicality of your influence. However, since you have no actual influence we might have to start with sensitivity. That our maybe fine tuning."
"What do you mean?" He leaned against the boulder and sighed.
"Think of it like you're a television and your power is the antenna." I raised an eyebrow at him and he laughed. "Kids these days. Anyway, you have to adjust the antenna to be able to get the channels you wanted. If the antenna arent position properly then all you get is white noise. Not a pretty picture..." I am going to ignore the fact that he just made a pun. "When it comes to sensitivity... A tuning fork to glass. You have to adjust the strength like people adjust the pitch. The higher the pitch... the more likely the glass will shatter."
"Do we want the glass to shatter?" Sean shrugged and I just stood there confused.
"It depends on what you're using your power for." I sighed as looked down at the ground a bit defeated. I have no idea where to even start. "Roman..." I felt him place a hand on my shoulder and I looked up to see a concerned smile. "Personal powers are just that... Personal. They grow in many different ways. You may start out with this vague and confusing power but as you grow it will turn into something that fits you."
"But where do I start." He let go of me and looked over at the other students.
"Being that right now, you power is based around the presence of energy. I would find something that disturbs it. Just so you can get a feel for how your powers work." Find something that... I was already feeling nauseous about it. At the moment that's the only energy-based thing that I've felt enough to no it wasn't just coincidence. Part of me doesn't want to feel that again... Sean clapped his hands, drawing my attention back to him and he smiled. "Well, you may be excused. Since there isn't anything you can do right now I think it'll be ok for you to leave. Felix isn't exactly going to let you just pop back in he's a bit of a hard ass."
"Ok... Thanks Mr. Mclaughlin."
