It had been a few weeks now since Skye joined the Brotherhood.  Neal had taken her under his wing so to say.  She really was starting to get the hang of her powers and had new clothing and a room to call her own.  Life was actually good for once, almost as good as it was before the storm that changed her life.

She didn't really like most of the cloths the other girls had given her, she wasn't one to dress this sexy.  But she didn't complain.  It was better than the prison jumpsuit she had worn for so many years.  Today she wore her favorite outfit that she had acquired.  It was her favorite.  She looked amazing in it.

As Skye walked around, she managed to not draw in the electricity around her, a first.  She instead concentrated and made a small ball of electricity in her hands and kept it from being pulled into the bangles that they still did not remove from her wrists.  They figured they would have to stay on until she had full control.  The small ball of electricity turned bright yellow then blue, then white before she threw it out toward the window.  Before it hit, she pulled it back to her and caught it.  Neal had been helping her along with others.

Today was the first time she made the ball, threw it and didn't actually break anything or lose control.

"Oh my, I actually did it.  About fucking time."  Skye shouted and grew a smile on her face.  She didn't wear her sunglasses any more, but her eyes were still extremely bright.  Now with her new control, she managed to keep them duller. She was very happy, her eyes grew brighter but not blinding.

Sean rolled about on his soft bed, shifting around for a moment until he found a comfortable position and pressed lightly on the pump attached to the lotion, letting the soft white substance flow onto his palm. With that done, he slathered it generously onto his foot’s sole, running along the arches and making sure that get every nook and cranny. Anything that kept his feet from getting dry and cracked would be good for Sean, and if he knew anything they were likely to get just that. So this was perhaps part of his daily ritual, running the moisturizing cream over them at least once or twice a day.
 
These days there was not much to do, so he did not have to worry about his schedule being interrupted. Sean was dressed in his favorite outfit something that was simple but it served just fine, minus the shoes anyway. Not like he was worried about his shoes getting dry, not enough to slather them with lotion anyway. Toes wriggled as he finished off this little task and placed the white bottle under his bed, letting the bedding cover that small area before landing on his feet, smooth feet meeting the cold wood floor.
 
A shiver ran through his body as he lightly popped his shoulder, followed by his neck and then exited his room. The dark haired mutant would wander around the mansion, perhaps speaking with some of his housemates to pass the time, and maybe even just to pass the time. It was then that he came upon a familiar face, one that he had met once before when she came to the house and then seen a few times after that. Siler pools looked into the glowing eyes for a moment, as he took in the triumphant cry that she let out, smirking lightly.
 

”Wow, someone sounds happy.” He added sounding chipper, as he dug hands into his pockets.

Skye heard him approach before she heard him, and turned to face him.  Her long blonde straight hair floated with her as she turned toward him with a big smile on her face.  Her eyes, bright like a flash light looked right at him.  she tried to dull them a little bit, but it was the best she could do at the moment.  She would have to work on it.

"I finally got the electrical ball to not break anything and to pull it back to me.  My wrist cuffs aren't pulling it into them either.  I think soon Neal can figure out how to get them off.  I'm getting control over this finally!"  Skye said with a large smile on her face.  Her white teeth perked out of her pale lips.  It was a first time she was truly showing pure happiness here.  To show him, she held her right hand out and slowly created a small yellow ball of electricity that came down from her hair.  It floated down from her hair, jumped over the bangles and into her palm and grew in size.  Slowly it turned blue as it expanded.  She put her left hand next to it and it became rounder.  She than threw it at him.  Before it reached him though, the ball of electricity stopped inches from him.  It floated right in front of Sean before she pulled it back to herself and caught it.  Again she yelled in happiness.

"Fuck yea! See!  I can control the electrical balls!  I'm getting it down! I'm the best electrical mutant ever!"

So it seemed that she was beginning to control her power, that was good, especially considering what her power was. The male blinked lightly, letting the smirk change into smile as he considered that for a moment. ”Woah, that’s neat.” He said encouragingly, equating it to when he first managed to control his own powerful ability. She then demonstrated this triumph within her life, the small orb of energy coming close to his face before snapping back to her, Sean leaning back in case it did not go as planned. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her control, but he just did not like the electrical orb being so close to him. ’Hell yeah! You’ll have full control before you know it.” White teeth flash from between pale pink lips, Sean chuckling lightly as he seemed to join within her triumph, though that did not mean he would keep close.

Skye grinned at him.  She loved how things were going.  Maybe Neal would let her go out and get her own cloths soon.  Not that she didn't love the outfit she wore right now, but the rest was a bit trashy and slightly whorish so to say. She smiled at Sean, and decided to do something else to show off her new control over her powers.  Again, electricity floated down from her hair in waves creating an even larger white ball of electricity.

She began to move the large ball around her body, keeping it at alight distance.  She concentrated, her eyes dimmed as all her energy went into the ball in front of her.  Suddenly, she lost the control, he control not fully hers still.  The ball flew forward and right at Sean.  As it did so, Skye pulled a lot of the electricity back to her making the ball the size of a gumball.  She couldn't absorb it all.  Her smile turned into embarrassment as the ball flew right at Sean.

"Look out!" She shouted, too late as it hit him.  The force was that of being zapped with a tazer.  She watched as it hit him and winced slightly.  So she didn't have full control and risked it too early to show off.  She rushed over to him but didn't touch him.  If she had, it would of shocked him more.  She still wasn't able to be touched or have others touch her.  

"Sean, I am so sorry... I lost the control.... I'd help you up but you know that would just make it worse.  I'm going to stop practicing today.  Again, I am so so so sorry.  You forgive me right?" She asked slightly panicked.  She didn't like hurting her fellow mutants.  Especially one that she thought of as a growing friend.

The girl was pleased with her control, and it was something that any sane peson would have been rather pleased with. She as going from ticking time bomb to a mutant that could control their power, the change not instant but enough that it was apparent her progress. It reminded Sean of his progress, how far he had come from being a loose cannon with his powers to actually being able to control them completely, or at least to the degree that he could now. Sean was under no illusion that he had more to learn and that would come when it did.
 
His fear over electrocution never really did fade away, but that was a given. Water conducts electricity and he kinda controlled water. The girl showed off her power more, and Sean chose to take a step back, better safe than sorry; not that it did him any good. One of the orbs shot at him, and it did not stop, the shock catching him and stealing his breath away. Sean found his muscles instantly seizing as he was knocked flat on his ass. His mind for the most part was on the fritz as his body tried to adjust to whatever was happening to him.
 
Within a few moments his body calmed down, and he lowly grumbled. ”Ouch.” The male rubbed his chest lightly, feeling what was slight scorching on his shirt, and scowling. This was his favorite shirt too, and one that he did not have another one of, not that he couldn’t buy another one. ”And that was my favorite shirt too.” With that said, Sean shakily attempted to stand before simply sitting down again. Yeah, a little sitting was needed now. ”No no, its fine. No permanent damage done.”

Skye frowned, really hating herself.  She really hurt him, and burned his shirt.  A small electrified tear fall from her right eye before a few more followed.  She pushed them aside, the bangles absorbing them.  She wanted so desperately to help him up but she couldn't touch him without hurting him more.  He knew that, and she knew that.  

"I'm so sorry!  I didn't mean to do that.  I tried to draw the entire thing back to me when it went after you.... I got the majority of it... It was like 10% of what it would of been.  But that's no excuse."  Skye said rapidly.  She felt horrible for knocking him off his feet.   She really didn't know what to say or do beside to keep apologizing.  So she kept doing just that.  She moved a chair over to him, and let it go so when he could get up to sit she wouldn't electrify him again by accident.  She seemed panicked, her eyes, now even brighter than before kept looking around.

"Shit, Sean... I really don't know what to say to you or to do for you... It's so hard to not to be able to help you up, or to control this.  I really feel horrible.  Please, forgive me.  Don't tell Neal about this either.  Please."

He massaged the slightly sore spot carefully, grimacing at the small amount of pain that lanced through it. Nothing major, but it proved to be an annoyance. He could hear the worry within the females voice, and something about it was expected, much like a child almost. ”Shhhhh.” Sean seemed to hiss lightly, palms pressing against the floor as he pushed himself to his feet, peeling off a small amount of scorched shirt, one that seemed to take a small bit from the rest. ”Calm down I’m perfectly fine.” He assured her, the small amount of agitated red flesh showing from underneath the hole created. ’Just try not to do that trick with people around until you have control, okay?”

Skye nodded quickly and backed up a bit.  She didn't want to risk having her body sending off any electrical surges at him since she was a bit stressed.  She cleared her throat, pushed any remaining tears off her face and forced a smile.

"I really thought I had it.  These powers I have can be tricky."  She looked down for a moment and then spoke again.  "I've been actually going out at night to practice at the park.  Been getting really good."  

She looked at the red mark on him and frowned.  "Do you want to get a new shirt?  Or um maybe I can make it up to you by taking you out for a new shirt?  I've gotten some money by shocking some people at night and robbing them... I don't hurt them bad."  She grinned slightly and began to laugh a little.
