Shikon opened the door quietly and put Thana down on one of the couches. He knew she had fallen wrong so he checked her arms. One wrist was broken so he went to the kitchen, got the supplies, and reset the bone. None of them were doctors, but they had all learned a lot for medical simply because they couldn't go to hospital. So after he bandaged her up he went to the fridge and brought back two cokes. If she didn't like coke she could go and get something else from the fridge.

Once he had everything settled he tidied the room a bit. He didn't want the first thing Thana sees in the house was a messy living room. So once he was done with that he sat in the chair across from her and waited patiently for her to wake up.

After what seemed like an eternity Thana was finally brought back to reality  by the stinging in her side and neck as well as everywhere else. Moving slightly she opened her eyes, and immediately didn't know where she was. 

Even though she didn't know where she was she   didn't sit upright as her head was pounding. When she was fully awake she remembered a man and the fight and how he had won. " Fricken Asshole." She mumbled to herself. Her grey eyes now replaced by their true, unearthly blue.

Shikon chuckled. "Don't forget this asshole kicked your ass. So maybe be careful with those comments." He stood up and walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a bottle of Tylenol. He walked back in and sat it next to the drink he got for her. Then he sat back in the chair except on the edge of it.

"So how are you feeling? Careful with your wrist, you broke it pretty well so I splinted it up for you." He smiled a child's kind of smile. It was filled with happiness, and compassion unlike any other. He motioned for her to sit up. It would be better if she sat up so that she wouldn't feel as groggy. "You fought pretty well, I was surprised you held your own for so long."

Thana turned her pounding head as she heard that damn man speak again, but bit her tongue. Painfully she sat up, and put the coke can on the back of her head. Then she took a look at her right wrist, " Good thing I'm left handed." She commented, holding her head in her hands. " What the hell did you hit me with? A truck?" Thana asked, before noticing that most of her clothes were singed and felt her right side tentatively. " Fourth, seventh, eigth, and ninth ribs are broken. " she said, more to herself then Shikon. 


Gladly she opened the bottle he placed in front of her and took the right dosage before replacing the cap, and took he can from the back of her head and opened it. " Ah thanks." She said to him, listening as he said she fought well. " Not well enough. I lost the wager."

Shikon laughed some more as she went through the motions of checking herself over. He poked his side and laughed a little harder even though it hurt. "I didn't hit you with a truck. I'm just really strong, and really good at fighting. The pain should go away in a bit. I'd say another thirty minutes or so. You did a good number on me though. A broken ribs and some bruises isn't have bad. Although that orb thing you did was really cool. What exactly is your power?"

Shikon was always curious. He wanted to know how people's powers worked, and what their limits were that way he could make them push their limits. He was already planning out methods of training Thana to use her power. Whatever that power was, it made her a force to be reckoned with if she could actually learn to use and control it.

Thana shrugged and nodded, " The MRD called it Energy Sourcing or something. It allows me to draw I my own energy to do things. Usually the orbs are easiest , I don't know much else about it other then I hate it." She answered, the pain still rocketing through her. " You don't have two ice packs by any chance do you?" Thana asked nicely, her street attitude gone she was in pain and right now Shikon was the only one there so she had to listen to him. " Where are we?"

Shikon shook his head and went to get the ice packs. "Leave it to those racist fucks to make someone hate their own gift." He walked back and tossed them on the couch next to her. He sighed and checked his watch, he needed to break that habit. He sat back down and looked at Thana. "If you want I can heal those burns up real quick. They'll still leave marks, I can't fix that. But I can take away the burning feeling."

He had made the offer because he knew that burning was a painful sensation even though he couldn't feel it himself. Taking the pain away was simple. After all a burn was merely a super heated part of the skin and there was tons of heat so all he did was take the heat away.

Thana listened as Shikon spoke again, but said nothing other then a thanks for the ice packs. It was the MRD that made her hate her gift it was herself. But she remained quiet about it.

 "If you want I can heal those burns up real quick. They'll still leave marks, I can't fix that. But I can take away the burning feeling."

At the offer Thana shook her head, " No I'm fine." She responded, truth be told she just didn't want contact with anyone. Nor did she want anyone to see her body, it was something that she hid under the layers of clothing that covered her from head to toe. It still showed her form nicely, but her neck was covered by a stiff high collared t shirt, and her arms were covered with shoulder length gloves for a reason. Though Shikon had burnt the side of her shirt in the fight. " You don't have an oversize shirt by any chance do you?" She asked, wanting an oversized one as it would cover her arms as well.

Shikon shook his head. He wasn't really asking for permission it was a formality. He walked close Thana and looked at where the burns were. He held his hands halfway out and concentrated a moment drawing in the heat from the burns. He then dissipated it into the air. " You didn't really have a choice Thana. It was a formality to ask." Once he was done he walked upstairs to his room and brought back one of his shirts. For someone like Thana is was going to be huge. He tossed it to her and smiled. "Hopefully that will do?" He smiled at her, whether she liked it or not he was now her friend.

He motioned to the house and spun around in a small circle. "Let me officially welcome you to the Brotherhood mansion. This mansion is the perfect place for anyone who is out in the big world alone. We'll be your family, and don't worry, we feed ourselves!" That last sentence was a joke, and he laughed at it a little bit.

Thana moved slightly and warily as Shikon moved near her, grateful that he kept a distance away from her and looked at him as he made the burning sensation go away. " T-thanks." She said to him, the burning sensation now gone it wasn't quite as painful. 

Catching the giant shirt Thana nodded softly and mumbled another thanks, it was waaaaay to big for her which mean that the long sleeves would cover her arms and the loose material wouldn't hurt her burns. Quickly she slipped it over her head and pulled it down before she carefully reached under the giant shirt and peeled the burnt one off, wincing as she did so before also removing her shoulder length gloves. The material of the shirt he had given her allowed her to move with more ease, and the long sleeves went well over her fingers but she didn't mind. 

 Let me officially welcome you to the Brotherhood mansion. This mansion is the perfect place for anyone who is out in the big world alone. We'll be your family, and don't worry, we feed ourselves!"
 

Thana nodded again softly, now she was in a place she didn't know with a man she knew nothing about she didn't have any lippy remarks or much to say. She stayed quiet and sipped on her coke , glad her pants hadn't been burned. " H-how many of you are there?"

Shikon sat down in the same chair as before, and leaned forward to her. "There aren't many of us, but we're a family. We fight like one, argue like one, and protect each other like one. It's a place we can call home." He smiled at Thana then yawned "Sorry I usually don't yawn this much. Anyways tell me about yourself." He sat back in his chair and smiled again. He wanted Thana to feel at home here, not a like an animal trapped in a cage.

Thana nodded softly and listened as Shikon spoke, shrugging and wincing as she did so.  " what do you want to know? You know I'm a street fighter and you know I was held by the MRD, what else is there?" She asked quietly, tapping on her can of coke.

He smiled at her. "Thana there is always more to a story than an outside person can infer. I knew you were a street fighter because I saw you, and knew you were held by the M.R.D. because you let it slip, but there's more to your story just like everyone else. You said that the M.R.D. didn't make you hate your powers, so let's start there. Why do you hate your powers?"

There was a subtle gleam in his eyes, if there was one thing he loved it was knowledge, and Thana's story would be full of it about her. Plus he wanted to get to know who he was bringing into the family, and into his home.

Listening as Shikon spoke she knew she would have to start talking, she was a stranger in the graciousness of his hospitality. She thought about her answer, rubbing her wrist and winced. Not a good idea to rub the broken wrist. Finally thinking of how to explain it she looked back at him.

"I hate it because it ruined my life.. It wasn't perfect, no ones is. I had a family, happiness, and innocence. I first discovered I had my gift when I was five, my parents didn't think much of it, and when the MRD came around died protecting me from them. " she answered.

Shikon listened patiently and quietly. He felt that she hated her gift because it was her fault her family died, but to Shikon it was the M.R.D.'s fault. He wasn't afraid to let her know either. "Thana, your gift is just that, a gift. It's not a curse unless you let it become a curse. You think it's your fault, but it's not. If there weren't people like the M.R.D. then you'd still have all those things. I'm sorry about what happened, but don't look at your gift as anything other than that, a gift. "

He figured she would be angry at him for butting in like that, but she needed to know. To Shikon any mutant's power was a gift. People should accept that mutants are different just like everyone else. However, people always treated them like monsters. And if you treat something like a monster long enough then a monster it will become.

Thana, your gift is just that, a gift. It's not a curse unless you let it become a curse. You think it's your fault, but it's not. If there weren't people like the M.R.D. then you'd still have all those things. I'm sorry about what happened, but don't look at your gift as anything other than that, a gift. "

Thana listened as Shikon spoke, "I don't dwell on the past so it doesn't matter anymore. " Thana replied, "Any other questions?" She asked, hoping to move on from it. The past was the past, and Thana's opinions were her own. As she moved she winced again, her whole side and ribs still hurting.

Shikon sighed hugely and ran a hand through his hair. 'People can be so frustrating' he thought quietly. He stood up for a moment and walked back into the kitchen. He pulled out a first aid kit and searched it. When he didn't find what he was looking for he grabbed another. Shikon searched through multiple bags over the next couple minutes. When he had finally found what he needed it was a tiny container. He walked back into the living room and tossed it down next to Thana. "Put that on. It should help with skin sticking and cracking, as well as make it less painful when the shirt brushes against the burns."

He sat back down in his chair and thought about his next question. Shikon wanted to go more into her past, but she was obviously trying to avoid it so he went a different route. "How would you describe your powers? And what is your extent of control with them?" It was a simple question, but maybe not so simple to understand.

Thana caught the pack that Shikon tossed to her and gratefully put it under her shirt. She listened as Shikon spoke again. 

. "How would you describe your powers? And what is your extent of control with them?"   

" I told you, I think it's called energy sourcing. I summon energy to do what I want. Theoretically I could use it to heal, and infuse it with other things but I have no idea how it's possible. All i know what to do is summon the orbs." She answered, " I don't really know how much control I have. I've never wanted or had the chance to see how far I could take them ." Thana explained, finishing her coke and looking down. " I-I'm scared of using them."

Shikon smiled hugely. "Everyone is a little afraid of their powers at first. Just common human fear." He leaned forward and spoke softly, it was important to be calm in a situation where you were trying to convince someone to do something.

"Your powers are amazing. I could give you the time of day, as well as the space needed, in order to learn how to use your powers. I could help you learn just how far you can go then help you surpass that. It's all about control, and willpower. If you have those two things there isn't anything you can't do with your powers. Let me teach you." Shikon had kept his calm friendly demeanor the whole time and he smiled at Thana as he finished.

Thana listened as Shikon spoke, and actually began considering what he had to say. She knew she couldn't stay alone forever, and Shikon seemed to want to help her. He was so gentle, so kind to her. Thana began dropping her walls and listened more and more. 

 "Your powers are amazing. I could give you the time of day, as well as the space needed, in order to learn how to use your powers. I could help you learn just how far you can go then help you surpass that. It's all about control, and willpower. If you have those two things there isn't anything you can't do with your powers. Let me teach you.




Continuing to listen, Thana felt herself captivated by Shikon and immediately began trusting him. She may regret it later, by for now Thana wanted to listen to Shikon. Slowly she nodded, words not needing to be said as she collapsed all her walls to him. The street fighter gone, the hard woman gone, in heir place was a young mutant who had no one and was listening to the mysterious man who wanted to help her and made her feel safe. Thana had finally found someone she could trust and open up to, someone she could collapse her walls with. A figure to help her, someone to show her what to do . Sleepily she leant back on the couch and put her head on the side arm. The medication starting to kick in as well.

Loika let herself into the brotherhood mansion. She had been released in good behavior as long as she stayed on her meds and took counceling. She walked in wearing a cuttoff belly tshirt, a miniskirt that stopped just under her ass, and boots.

She dropped her bag on the floor and smirked at the both of them. "Hey baby. Miss me?"

Shikon almost knocked the chair he was sitting in over when he heard Lakai's voice. He ran over to her and picked her up spinning her around and smiling like an idiot. After a moment of hugging Lakai tightly he turned to face Thana. "Lakai this is Thana, our newest recruit. I'm gonna teach her how to use her powers. Thana this is Lakai, the love of my life."

Shikon was even more confident now. Someone could have came up and put the confidence that was spilling off of him in a bottle and sell it. With Lakai by his side his world was back in order and he was ready to take the mantle of leader again.

Lakai kissed him hard and fiercely like she was going to take him right there. The old her would have done that too but she was learning some restraint. She hugged him tight and grinned instead. " Good. Just a new recruit. Wouldnt want to get me jealous again love. Seems harmless." She sighed and stretched. " Thank the professor at the school. He helped me put the pieces back together. Im still on some meds and i still have some....episodes. but im 95% fine."

Adrienne appeared from around the corner and leaned against the wall.
"I see the circus is back in town," she scoffed, which was followed by a laugh, "Killing someone should get you those extra five percent back," Adrienne pulled out her dagger from her left boot. "Shouldn't be a problem then for you."

Shikon was such a man whore, bringing new chicks to the mansion all the time. "No need to get jealous, dearie...we all know Shikon runs a pimp here, and we are just his willing subjects which he can't touch."

Over the past several months, Adrienne had plans and dreams of running this joint. Brotherhood to be exact and with new recruits it shouldn't be too hard for her to sway them from his believes.
She turned to look at a new girl.

"And who might you be?"

Shikon rolled his eyes hard, and then glared down Adrienne. "If I'm a pimp then that makes you a two bit whore." Shikon sighed and then laughed. It was whatever to him, he didn't really care anymore. He could take anyone, anywhere anytime.

"This is the newest member of the Brotherhood. Her name is Thana. So play nice everyone." He yawned and went and sat back in the chair he was originally sitting in. Tonight was going to interesting quick.
