Amara stared at John for a moment. 'hes gonna show me his powers! yay!' He smiled at her n took her hand, leaving the motorcycle on the curb. They walked behind the Library, where trees surrounded the entire back of it. John pulled out a zipper lighter n smiled at Amara evilly. "watch closely sheila..." slowly, he flipped the cap of the lighter n ignited the flame. Almost mesmarized by the fire, he extended his hand to the flame, barely touching it. As Amara watched him, she was worried he would burn himself, but actually it was just the opposite. the flame was coming in contact wit him but it was doing no harm, it was.....being controlled by him. For a moment Amara didnt understand...but then she rememberd what he said' i'll show you'. "you can control fire..?

John smiled, kind of proud of his abilities. "well yea...but..i cant make it...which i hate". Taking the lighter from him, Amara closed the cap n stared at him, her eyes turning a reddish shade. staring in bewilderment, John watched as her eyes changed a different color. "Now i can show you my powers..." Slowly, Amara's long hair started to spark, changing into another matter. Imense heat radiated off of her as her body became engulfed in flames of bright colors. Finally, Amara had transformed fully into her other form, the form that was resistant 2 fire n brimstone and the form that could fly a hundred miles an hour because of her heated body.

"isnt it strange John..? you control fire....and i AM fire." John was stunned at her transformation, yes he thought Amara was already beautiful...but now..she was just....wow. "Mara...you are beautiful....stunning really..." Behind all the flames, Amara blushed brightly. "thank you John, thats very kind of you to say. Amara's form started to die away, soon becoming the "human" Amara. "John..we should go..." He stared at her. "what??? why sheila??" Sighing, Amara walked with him back to the motorcycle. "because Bobby is gonna be a prick if i dont come back home soon. Scoffing at the other boys name, he took her hand. "Mara, forget him....hes ur friend n all...but i want you to be mine...not his" Amara smiled up at John. "ok....not his...im yours then" she held his hand tighter n stood there in front of the library wit him for just a little longer before she had to go.

Bobby layed in his bed, moping about. 'where is she???? she should be back by now!! And where is Jubilee? urrrrggg!!' Sitting up in bed, he looked around the room. After a moment his eyes settled on the empty bed that was on the other wall. John's old bed. it had been stripped of the sheets the night he left, n he didnt even say goodbye. yea they were rivals but they were also good friends at one point, apparently that changed. he likes Amara...n she likes him....i should hav just told her the truth. but before Bobby could think about the subject any longer, Jubilee barged into the room yelling and screaming. "Bobby!! Amara's back...n she brought Pyro!!!"
