Alex: Alex looked at her shocked but said loudly,"Superman and The Flash came to this school?! The same school I'm in? I think I'm going to pass out." She looked around hoping she wasn't the only one freaking out but honestly didn't care if they all thought she was weird, amazing superheroes went to her school!

Professor Collins: The professor smiled. "Yes ma'am. I've ran this school for several years, and taught more than those two, but yeas, they are two of my more famous students."

River looked up and whispered "Daniel" getting his attention "thank you for always being there."

Daniel: Upon hearing his name, he looked down at River. After listening to her, he smiled warmly. "It's what I'm here for," he whispered back. "You ever need me, don't hesitate to tell me." Daniel would be there for River and his friends. Always.

Do you think you can get him to guest speak or something?" Margo laughed, knowing these hero's all lead way to busy lives to talk to some kids.

Nate: As Collins listed the superhero's Nate's jaw opened wider and wider. "They all went here? I had no idea!" Nate suddenly lost all bitterness he still had towards his mom for sending him here. This has got to be the coolest school ever.

Professor Collins: Professor Collins smiled. "My students love to visit me, even the very busy ones. And I usually try to have a guest speaker at least once a year. Some of my students even volunteer. I check my email every evening, so I see who's interested and arrange a good day. So, we'll see who comes out this year. On guest speaker days, usually they talk in the morning, then we break for lunch, and then they come down here and give people pointers."

Professor Collins: "So today, what you're going to do is I'm assigning you two practice dummies. The dummies will be assigned your file, so they can't be set on anyone else. What you'll have to do is out run, outsmart or outfight your dummies into defeating them, using your abilities. Once you defeat one, it'll fall down for ten seconds, then pop back up again. Once you defeat a dummy three times. they'll go down and stay down. There will be a 0, 1, 2 or 3 on the head of each dummy for how many times you've knocked them out. So......" Professor Collins' gaze swept around the room, deciding who she would use as an example. "Max, I'll use you as an example. Come here please."

Max: Max went over to Professor Collins, not knowing what to expect.

Professor Collins: Professor Collins took Max's hand and led her out into the gym to a pair of dummies. When she spoke, the students found they could here her just as clearly. "Now, Maxine here has the ability to shapeshift, or to change her whole appearance to look like someone else. She can even copy their voice. So, Max, if you could demonstrate for us."

Max: Max sighed, one of her secrets was already blown. Max willed herself to change forms, she grew in height and aged until she was a complete copy of Professor Collins. "She can even copy their voice," Max repeated, her voice for the most part sounding exactly like Professor Collins', but occasionally dipping back into Max's voice.

Professor Collins: "See? But that is simple. Now, what if Max, say, was in trouble, being chased, and so had to change into a loved one of whoever was chasing her? But then, she couldn't be that person because that person was an enemy of the person in front of her? Max would have to do very quick, very accurate changing. Let's try it." A few seconds later, and the dummies began projecting images of people at a very fast rate.

Max: Max instantly recognized the challenge and tried to copy as many people as she could. As she went on though, the picture reel went faster, so Max would be halfway finished portraying one person before she had to switch to the next.

Professor Collins: The professor let it go on for a few more moments before saying, "Right, Zephyr, that's enough." Instantly, the dummies stopped flashiong images and turned off completely. As Max turned back into herself, Professor Collins led her back into the room with the rest of the students. "Right. Now, I'll be walking around the room if you need help. Any questions?"

Alex: Alex watched Max impressed but felt nervous not knowing if she could actually do it. "Um yes. How the fudge monkeys am I supposed to be able to fight a dummy?" She sighed and got ready to use her powers hoping she could control at least one.

Professor Collins: "Well, let's think about this. Your power is manipluating the elements. So, think about water. Why don't you take your kareoke machine into the tub with you when you take a bath? Think about earth. Rock beats scissors. You could make it like a giant game of rock, paper, scissors. Think about fire. What does fire do to things? Think about air. What wind storm do you know of that ravages towns and cities in the Midwest and South? Think about it." Professor Collins gave her hints but didn't spell it out for Alex, hoping she would come to the conclusions, and therefore solutions, Professor Collins wanted her to realize.

River: As River listened to professor Collins helping others she began to feel even less confident, "but I can only control water,how can I possibly defeat a bad guy with that?"

Alex: Alex thought about what she was saying for a moment then nodded when she thought she understood. "Alright, thank-you professor. I think I may understand."

Ooc: That terrible time when your WiFi goes out and you have to type from your phone. -_-

Alex: Alex looked over at River Nd could tell she wasn't very confident so she tried to help. "Water can be very powerful. If you're near the ocean you could use the water to pull a villain into the ocean or you could freeze the water and turn them into sharp ice cycles to keep the villain against a wall."

River: Still clinging to Daniel River nodded as Alex spoke, she knew what she was saying was true, but she just couldn't picture herself using her power and making those things happen.

OOC: That sucks.

Professor Collins: Professor Collins nodded. "What Alex said. Also, if it helps, the dummies are made of metal."

"So, if you're ready, head on into the gym and find a pair of dummies."

Nate: Nate found two dummies, and stood next to them. He wasn't sure what to do or where to start. He'd been listening, but nothing seemed to make sense. He decided to wait and see what others did.

Margo: Margo made her way to Alex and smiled. "Ahh, this is nerve wracking! I'm not sure if I'll even be able to beat a dummy! Do you think they adjust to our skill level or something? This is some amazing technology."

Alex: Alex smiled and walked into the gym finding herself dummies to use. She hoped she would be able to use more than fire, it would be amazing to finally get to use air on command.

Ooc: ikr. I hate posting from my phone, I can't use colors plus its harder for me to type the right words.

Jack: Jack walked in the gym finding his own dummies and began to think of ways he could fight them.

Alex: Alex smiled back at her,"I know! I'm not even sure I can beat one either, I might just throw fire at them and hope for the best! I'm not sure, but they shoukdn't be too hard on us. We're just starting out."

Daniel: Daniel let go of River but took her hands in his, in an attempt to get her attention. "Are you ready to go in there?"

Max: Max went back into the gym, and over to the dummies she had just used. She figured she would have to outsmart them in order to defeat them.

Professor Collins: Professor Collins went onto the computer and began typing. "I'm placing all the dummies on the beginner level."

OOC: Once I turn on the dummies, you control your own.

Margo: "I think that would work. Fire generally does destroy things!" Margo laughed. "I'm not sure what I'll do. If by defeating it, Collins means getting by it, I can do that pretty easily by flying. But, if we actually have to, you know, stop it, I'm not so sure. I'm no good at the trapping aspect of my power yet." It was helping Margo to talk her plans out.

Alex: Alex smiled,"Well it would be cool if I could use one of the other elements too because Ive never actually used them on purpose. As for your flying and stopping the dummy you could always fly high in the air and fly back kicking the dummie in the back hard getting it down." She heard Professor Collins and smiled,"Thank goodness we're on beginner."

River: River avoided looking up at Daniel while he held both of her hands and spoke to her. She didn't want him to she her face which would completely reveal that she was not in fact ready. "yeah," she said "I'm ready." she slowly let go of his hands and made her way into the gym taking each step with caution. Her mind was racing what if she got hurt! what if one of her friends got hurt! what if Daniel got hurt!! For some reason thinking about Daniel possibly getting hurt worried her more than if she herself would get hurt. Daniel was the only thing that seemed safe to her, so if Daniel wasn't safe, she didn't know what to think. She slowly took the last few steps and stood in front of her two dummies, she looked around the room one more time and spotted Daniel, he looked much more confident than she was. She gave him a quick nod to let him know that she was in fact ready.
