Chase practiced using his abilities outside of a new house that Michael has bought him with his robbing money. The house was a dark grey brick exterior, with a light grey roof. The windows perimeters were a bright white, and it was roughly 2900 square feet. Michael stood behind Chase, and held Chases arms out.
"Take a deep breath and exhale slowly" Said Michael, helping to hold Chases arms steady.
Chase nodded, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly before a black, opaque, powerful beam shot out from the palms of his hands, hitting a tree. The tree almost instantly began to wilt, the leaves became a brown colour, and started to fall off the tree.
"WOO!" Yelled Michael, letting go of his younger brothers arms from behind him.
Chase laughed a bit to himself.
"It took a lot of practise, but I think I'm getting the hang of it." Said Chase proudly.
Michael patted Chase on the shoulder before fixing his jacket that rested on top of his beige short sleeved top.
"We still have a lot to work on, your teleportation needs work, and so does your portal openin'" Replied Michael.
"I know, but I wanna see your powers again"
Michael looked at Chase, and sighed, slightly annoyed. He's had to show him his abilities several times, just for his satisfaction.
"Fine, fine, this is the last time, ok?"
Chase nodded happily and excitedly, eagerly watching his older brother.
Michael's arms ignited in a black flame, and his eyes began to glow a deep shade of red. He walked up to the tree, and touched it with the tip of his pointer finger, the tree fully becoming indulged in black flames almost instantly, the snow around the tree and resting on the branches were beginning to melt. He teleported back beside Chase, the fire deactivating from his arms.
"That was awesome! I wish I had powers like you." Said Chase, admiring his older brother.
Michael smiled slightly, messing up Chases hair.
"Cmon, lets start walking home. We can train again tomorrow, ok?" Asked Michael, teleporting up to the tree, touching the flames with his peter pointer finger, and extracting the flames and smoke back into his body.
Chase nodded, beginning to walk through the snow back in the direction towards their house. Michael turned and followed his younger brother, putting his arm on his shoulder.
"You're gettin' stronger bud."
