Chapter 6: Group: Kenny

Sitting in class when you have a super power is one of the most deathly boring activities you can engage in. I'm sitting in my physics class, (I can turn around and create a tornado, but I can't master a physics equation!) making tiny tornados with my hand by spinning my finger and then grabbing it with my hand before they grow too big. Charlie looks back and glares at me. We're not supposed to be using our powers carelessly anymore. Whatever, this guy already knows what we can do. I'm not going to lose out on the only entertainment I can find because some psycho's out to get us. If anything we should keep using our powers, stay sharp. But Charlie's the captain, he's in charge. Yeah, we let him lead our super hero team too. The thing is, Charlie's a natural leader and we're all so used to differ to his authority on the ice that it made sense. We've been trying to pretty much base what we're doing on The X-Men, because it makes the most sense for what we are. Charlie's like Cyclops, he'd the commander, and we follow his lead, but he's not really in charge of us. Also he's dating Julie, who's a psychic, like Jean Grey. When I pointed this out they asked if that made me Storm. I shut up after that. The Cyclone, that's me. Connie's really excited that we're going to be working together and so am I. First of all, it gives her something to do. She's been pretty bored, and second of all, it means that there's some control over the tornados, it was getting pretty tough with all the random destruction. Once class is over, last class of the day. I head to the dorms to go get changed for group training.

"Ken," Charlie stops me. I turn carefully, "You really shouldn't do the tiny tornados anymore."

"It's a habit," I shrug, "I'm trying. I get bored and I," I flick my finger in a circle and the air swirls. Charlie grabs it and scowls at me. "I'll stop Charlie, relax, we have group." He smiles. Charlie excels in group training because it's a roomful of people with powers and he can use them all. I sparred with him once, it's impossible, he's practically unstoppable.

"Yeah," he says, "I'll see you there." He walks off. I smile and keep walking. Charlie's always been edgy, but lately we've been worried about him. It's been a year and he still can't figure out how to trigger the powers without everyone around.

The thing is, I think Julie knows. Or, at least, she knows something. When she did that crazy mind merge, something unsettled her. She lost control over her powers, and she's just now getting it back.

"Hey Cyclone," I laugh as Luis comes behind me, "What's goin on?"

"Not much Speed Freak," I smile, "Not much." Luis and I got the first super hero names. Well, except Julie and Dwayne, because theirs were just easy, The Catlady and The Cowboy. "Ready for group?"

"I'm paired with Adam," he smiles, "It'll be fun." Adam and Luis are the most fair sparring partners because they can actually get to each other. "Who're you with?"

"Julie," I groan, and he looks at me sympathetically. Julie's practically impossible to fight, because she can always anticipate your next move, unless you figure out how to block her out. I haven't yet. Apparently Charlie has and Guy,

"Maybe she'll shut it off," Luis shrugs, "She can now."

"Maybe," I shrug. Not likely.

"You're getting better," Julie smiles at me while we fight, "You're actually helping me out," I laugh and she levitates and kicks me in the head. I fall down and she lowers herself down giggling. "Sorry Cyclone!" She says and offers me a hand to get up. I smile, take it and flip her over, she lands on her back.

"Sorry Catlady," I say. "I'm not going down that easily."

"Not bad Kenny," Coach walks over. "Couldn't get in his head Julie?" She shrugs. "Good, well, both you can head out." We nod. "Stick together though."

Once we're outside and down the road a little, Julie stops and closes her eyes.

"What are you doing?" I ask her. She sighs.

"Seeing if I can sense something," she shakes her head. "So far nothing."

"Was it bad?" I ask her, she nods. "Seems like all the shitty stuff happens to you."

"This was no where near the coma," she sighs.

"Wait up!" We stop and Charlie, Guy and Connie run after us.

Great, now I'm with the two couples. Charlie slides his arms around Julie and she smiles. Since they came out as a couple, he's almost always got his arms around her. Like he's trying to protect her or something. The last thing that Julie needs is a protector. I know, she was just kicking my ass.

"It was a good session," Guy says.

"Yeah," Charlie agrees, "You went down so fast Guy!"

"I went easy on you Captain," Guy snorts and we all laugh.

"Of course you did Shifter," Connie kisses him. "Ken, do you want to practice tomorrow?"

"Sure," I nod. We keep walking, laughing, talking, as if everything's the way it was before we even found out about our powers. I like moments like this one. Moments when we're normal. Suddenly Julie freezes and looks around.

"What's wrong baby?" Charlie looks at her.

"Someone's here." She whispers and shudders.

"Adam?" I try, if we can't see them it has to be Adam right?

"Not Adam," she says, "I know his mind by now, and he wouldn't sneak up on us, with everything that's happening."

"I can't get a read on anyone," Charlie shakes his head. "Julie, are you sure?" She nods.

"There's someone else around here!" She says.

"Can't hide from me," I smile and move my hands around each other and then stretch the small tornado to slightly bigger and push it away. The only thing it picks up is a squirrel.

"Is this what you sensed Julie?" Connie laughs. Julie giggles sheepishly.

"I can become a squirrel and talk to him if you want Jules," Guy teases her. "Question him, find out what he knows."

"I guess I'm a little paranoid right now." She blushes. Charlie laughs and kisses her.

So we keep walking. A paranoid psychic, a shape shifter, a human tornado, a girl who can fly and kid who can do it all. OK, I said we had moments where we were normal, not that we actually were.
