"Daisy!!! Daisy!!! Something weird is going on!!!" I yell, panicking.

She comes running. I can hear her footsteps hitting the ground beneath her. 

The door jolts open, Daisy and Jemma standing there out of breath. Jemma was holding some equipment, maybe to test what was wrong.

"What happened? Are you okay?" Daisy questions.

"I was washing Aspen, and the water just, it just moved. By itself. I wasn't doing anything."

That's when Jemma came forward and started hooking up wires and stuff to my head.

"Ok, do you think you can do it again?" She asks.

"Wait, so you're saying that I caused it? I don't even how it happened. It just did!" Did I cause this? What is going on here?"

"Hey, look at me," Daisy's voice snaps me back into reality. "You need to concentrate, look at the water, feel the water, become the water. Do not fear what you can do. Breath. Ready?"

Jemma had taken Aspen out and was drying him with one hand. The other was preoccupied with a screen in front of her.

I nod. It's now of never. Gently, I place both hands above the water. Deep breaths. In and out. In and out. My eyes close. My mind is focused completely on the water. I feel a rug in my gut. I hear some clapping and cheering in the background.

I open up my eyes again. The water's moving! And I'm doing it!! I start to laugh. This is amazing!

I take my hands of the water, and the currants calm.

I turn around. Daisy give me a hug and Jemma takes the equipment off of me. None of us really feel like breaking the happy silence around us.

Daisy finally speak. "Well, there's no doubt about it. These are your inhuman powers. We'll start training soon."
