Richard; I snarled a little. I hated it when people told me what to do and also yell at me. I grabbed another rock throwing it at Elijah, then grabbed some heavy weights chunking them at Gracie. I was breathing hard as I just glared over at them.
Dawnielle; Shit. How did he get that strength is my question. Actually how did any of these people get these strange powers. I stood more towards the wall so nothing would hit me.

Grace "What the actual fuck!" I shouted again, more scared than angry, really. I mean, it's not like I get random heavy objects thrown at me everyday. I might have superpowers but I'm not exactly superhuman on the strength thing. "You know if you keep doing that I am going to explode!"
Alec Maybe I should step in? Possibly? I don't know. I watched the new girl sprint from the room and I didn't blame her to be honest. She hadn't been here long, she had no idea what this what was like and she probably wasn't expecting this on her first day. Still, she needed work on her bravery if anything. Richard throwing random heavy shit around was nothing unusual, really.

I love how we're all just calling the stuff he's throwing 'heavy shit' omfg Wait why was there a boulder in the training room _______________________
Elijah "Fucking stop it, Richard!" I shouted, angrily sweeping my hand through the air; a strong wind came from my hand. The heavy shit he'd thrown at Gracie and I immediately changed course and splattered against the far wall, crumpling together from the force. "Alec, get the fuck over here and calm him down, would you?"
Tess I sighed, suddenly exhausted as I leaned against the wall, feeling limp and lifeless and just blah. I didn't like it when people fought, if I was being quite honest. I hated it, which was ironic because here we were supposed to be training to fight in the war. Outside, where people had to fight for their lives on a daily basis, the fights were horrible, and nasty, but there weren't any powers like theirs involved. Was it the same here? Did they fight like that, too? I took a deep breath. I couldn't stay here, if they did. It wouldn't be worth the food.

Richard; I was breathing heavily as I watched the rock smash against the wall. I looked over at Elijah and let out a big sigh, feeling myself calm down. I bent over, pressing my hands against my knees.

Grace My racing heart started to slow as Richard apparently started to calm down. "Maybe I should practice alone from now on," I mumbled, as the fire around my hands and arms slowly dissipated. I actually felt kind of tired all of a sudden. Probably all of the adrenaline I'd just experienced going away.
Alec I surveyed the scene in front of me. "He should be okay for now," I said, gesturing towards Richard and then making my way to the door of the training room. "I'm just going to see where that one's gone. If he starts again just come out and lock the door," I said, going outside.

Elijah I waved him off and took a deep breath, shooting an annoyed glance at Richard before turning back to the targets. "Back to training, everybody," I called out, since Alec had gone. I guess someone had to do it.
Tess I bit my lip, trying to decide what I was going to do. I wrinkled my nose and slid down the wall, bringing my knees to my chest. If it happened again, I guess I'd just have to leave. There wasn't another option for me.

Richard; I glanced around not really knowing what had happened but people where shooting me daggers. I noticed that a lot of rocks were smash and the sleeve of my shirt was burnt. I took a seat and placed my head in my hands.
Dawnielle; I calmed my heart down once Richard was calm himself. That was kind of scary but I could handle it. I glanced around the training area and noticed a lot of weaponry at one end. I glanced around and headed towards it, picking up a nice looking gun.

Grace I didn't really know what to do because I didn't want to use my powers again and cause whatever the fuck just happened to happen again. I decided eventually to just go for a few more laps around the track, so at least I was going something and not being completely unproductive.
Alec The girl wasn't outside the door so I went down the hallway and looked down each turning until I saw her down one, sat against the wall. I walked over to her, loudly enough so she would know that I was there and I wouldn't completely terrify her when she realised I was stood there. "Why did you run from the room?" I asked bluntly, standing over her with my arms folded.

Tess I looked up when I heard him speak, pursing my lips for a second. I was starting to dislike him, to an extent. Sigh. I don't like disliking people. "Do they do that often?" I asked him, figuring the answer to his other question would surface sooner or later.
Elijah I tried to form some small waterballs, but they weren't doing what I wanted them to. I was still too annoyed.

Richard; I sighed heavily, feeling tired now but I went ahead with lifting weights. I knew everyone pretty much hated me now, which wasn't fair. I can't control when I get mad, it just... happens.
Dawnielle; I looked over at the targets and raised an eyebrow, noticing that Elijah was over there having a hard time with his water ball things. Nobody really noticed me around here so I put the gun up, zeroing in on a target that was right by Elijah and pulled the trigger, sending a loud bang. I smirked when I hit the target right in the bulls-eye.

Grace I let my find focus on the rhythmic pounding of my feet on the floor and blocked out everything else; I found it easier to run like that, with less distractions. I focused on the ground moving beneath my feet and ran and ran and ran and ran and you get the idea.
Alec "No. And you didn't answer my question," I said, crouching down so I was eye level with her. "If you ran out because you were scared of that then you're not going to last long here. The outside world is a lot worse and you know it." She couldn't stay in the house if she wasn't prepared to deal with things like that and fight. The whole purpose of being there was to train to fight. She couldn't run away from conflict.

Tess I looked him defiantly in the eye. "I'm not a coward. Quite honestly, I'd like to see you be an eighty-five pound sixteen year old girl standing beside some random guy you don't know, who, by the way, was about to help you lift weights, turn into the fucking Hulk and start throwing shit. Excuse me, but I've only been here a week and that was completely fucked up and weird and just like, how the hell did he even get like that, like that doesn't even make any sense," I babbled, still slightly annoyed that he'd insinuated I was scared. Even though I had been. Whatever. "And, since you obviously know exactly how it is outside this shelter...thing...you would also know that people with powers like that, could be way worse than just some stupid ass kids who decided to loot the local grocery store because they ran out of their stores of Twinkies," I finished, surprised at how much better I felt. I lifted my chin a little, and bit my tongue. God, was he about to like, karate chop me in the face? Wouldn't put it past him. "And also, I would appreciate it if you didn't karate chop me in the face for going off on you," I added on, just for good measure. Better to be safe than to be sorry.
Elijah "WHAT THE FUCK IS IT WITH PEOPLE AND AIMING DANGEROUS THINGS AT MY HEAD TODAY," I cried, turning around to look accusingly at the girl who had fired a gun at my head.

Dawnielle; I couldn't help but laugh as Elijah blew up. I shrugged,"Maybe your head looks like a good target practice,"I said smirking as I once again shot the gun but this time at a different target, other than one by Elijah.

Alec "I'm not going to karate chop you in the face," I said, after a few seconds of silence. "And what just happened was nothing. We're not the only ones with these kind of people on our side. They have them too. And chances are, they've already mastered their powers and they're out wreaking havoc on the world. Stuff like this is going to happen out there. What are you going to do if you're in the middle of battle, stood next to one of this lot who's supposed to be on your team, and they switch sides and try to attack you? You can't just run off and hide in a hallway. I get it, you've only been here for a week, and it's understandable that you'd run off because you're not quite used to this. I don't have a problem with that. What I have a problem with is you thinking that the biggest threat out there is a bunch of looting kids. It's not. And I'm trying to prepare you for whatever is out there. So unless you want to die, I suggest you stand yourself up and get back to the training room."

Elijah I made a face and just huffed, sitting on the floor because, fuck the police.
Tess I stared at the ground in front of my feet. I was angry at him now, for sitting her and being so stupid and self-righteous and not understanding, and I wanted to get up and run back to the room I'd been in and just be angry at him because I'm a freaking teenager and that's what we freaking do.
