                                        Running for Jamie Viera was fun, and a great way to relieve stress. So she would run, every morning Jamie made a point to get up and go for a run, take a shower and eat breakfast. It was a good way to not only stay healthy, but a way to get her mind and body ready for whatever the day would lay out for her. On this particular morning, as Jamie finished her run and walked into the place that she had been calling home for the last ten years, she knew it was going to be a great day. It was camp day! She would be driving, with her brother out to Camp Echo where she would spend some great time with other people like her. Her brother wasn't like her, but they were close still.

                                        Her older brother, Aidan was in the kitchen preparing what smelled to be coffee. Jamie walked through the kitchen with a smile on her face. "You better save some of that for me!" She teased him before taking a drink of water and heading to the bathroom to take a shower and get all the sweat off of her body. Warm showers were such a great way to start off the morning for Jamie, they woke you up, but also relaxed you.

                                        As Jamie completed her shower, she stepped out from the bathroom and walked across the hall into her mostly empty and packed up bedroom. The outfit that she had picked out was lying neatly in a pile on her bed. After changing, Jamie combed through her long, red hair. She could only hope that it would dry before she left, but it was so thick that was never a guarantee.

                                        After finishing her hair and makeup, Jamie stepped back out into the hallway. The smell of coffee wafted through the house, which once again slapped a smile on her face. As Jamie walked back into the kitchen, Aidan was pouring the coffee into a portable mug so they could hit the road. "Thanks! This is just what I needed!" She exclaimed before grabbing the cup and heading towards the door to put her shoes on.

                                        "You know I could never forget your coffee, sis." He offered her a wink before grabbing himself his own cup of coffee and grabbing a seat beside Jamie. The two siblings enjoyed each others company, and even though she wasn't going to be gone for a super long time, the two spent all their time together. For some reason, they had been inseparable, even after moving out of their parents' home. Jamie was okay with that though, because her brother protected her no matter what.

                                        ---

                                        After the two siblings had spent a few hours in the car together, they had arrived at Camp Echo's gates. Jamie slipped a look at her brother before he cut off the engine and got off of the car. She sighed before exiting the car herself and saying quietly, "I'll go check in." and she did just that before returning to the car with her cabin assignment and holding it up for him to see. "I guess I'll see you soon, right?" She asked, shyly. If there was one thing that made Jamie go into her quiet, reserved space it was leaving her brother, or talking about her past. A sigh escaped her lips before Aidan wrapped his arms around her. She melted into his hug before he let go and said one last goodbye.

                                        When he got into the car and started it, Jamie stood there for a moment before whispering a goodbye. Then, she got her things and walked to the cabin she would be staying in. Jamie claimed a bunk and left her stuff there. She didn't need anything except her backpack, since she wanted to explore the camp grounds anyways. There didn't seem to be anybody around yet, but she could always make her own friends.

                                        Jamie made her way to the 'gathering spot' and found a bench to take a seat on. There, she slid off her backpack and sat it down next to her. As she looked around, her eyes searched for an animal, something to keep her company. She focused hard to listen for anything as well. On the treeline, she spotted a deer. Again, she focused and tapped into it's mind for a moment, just to get it to walk over to her. It did, and stopped in front of her. Jamie placed her hand on its neck and smiled.

                                        "Hey there, pretty girl." The deer's ears perked up and realized that Jamie was talking to it. That it could understand what she was saying, so it spoke back and eventually it just looked like Jamie was crazy and talking to a deer. Which is exactly what was happening.

                                        ooc ;; yep. i guess.

                                                          Cassadee rolled over, still intertwined in her bright blue quilt. "Please let me have more time to sleep." She mumbled to herself as she glanced over at her alarm clock and read the bright blue numbers. Nope, she had actually overslept, luckily only by a couple of minutes. She let out a light groan and she sat herself up in her bed supporting her weight with her arms behind her. Cass pulled her quilt off of her and swung her legs over the side of the bed. It took her a minute before she actually got the energy to leave her warm, wonderful bed. She ran a hand through her hair as she made her way over to her closet. She took out an outfit from her closet and laid it on the end of her bed. She smiled to herself as she began to walk out of her room towards the bathroom to take a shower. Cass usually isn't the person to take very long showers, if she does its usually due to her getting distracted by controlling the water. Today she was in there for only ten minutes tops and she was already done. She wrapped a towel around herself and made her way back to her room, her excitement for the day was quickly growing.

                                                          Once she was back in her room she changed into her outfit for the day and she grabbed a pair of black shoes off her closet floor and slipped them on. The young girl quickly blow dried out her hair and straightened it out. Her make up took her a bit longer to do than her hair, however, she enjoyed primping herself every morning. Plus, she would want to look extra good for the first day, that's when first impressions are made. And everyone knows how important those are. After she finished getting ready Cass grabbed her phone off of her desk and placed it in her back pocket. She put her hands on her hips as she glanced around her room once more, hoping not to forget anything. She had put all of her luggage in her car the night before and only had a few things she needed to use this morning. The brunette happily made her way out to her car and plopped down in the driver's seat. She started her car and began her drive to the campgrounds.

                                                          The drive to Camp Echo was about two hours for Cass, but, definitely two hours too long. The brunette sat in the driver's seat of her car as she finished applying her lipstick using the rear view mirror. She pressed her lips together and winked at herself before stepping out of the car. She brushed her hair behind her shoulders and placed her hands on her hips. She turned to face he camp's entrance with a huge smiled plastered on her face. Cass was happy to be back at camp again, despite the bit of bad happenings she had heard about just prior to her, and the other campers, arrivals. She just chose to ignore those. Cass noticed some other people heading inside the entrance of the camp, most likely to go check in. She figured she should probably do that instead of just standing by her car smiling like a maniac.

                                                          The young girl made her way to the little check in area to pick up all the info she would need for the first day. Things such as, what cabin she is going to be staying in, who are her cabin mates are, who her supervisor is, and of course, the times for her activities for the first day. She saw the area with the small welcome banner adorned with glitter and stickers strewn across the front of the table. Cass could help but smile to herself, she always thought it looked so cheesy, but at least it works to get people's attention.

                                                          As Cassadee approached the table all her info was handed to her immediately. She had been going to the camp every summer for a while now, she was known by pretty much all of the returning staff, whether that be good or bad. Although, it was mostly good. Elemental Cabin, as I predicted. She thought to herself as she turned away from the table. Sera and I are in the same cabin! Cass threw her arms in the air and accidentally let out and audible 'yay'. She quickly brought her arms back down to her sides and glanced around at the people near her. Yep, a few are staring. Great start, Cass, great start. The brunette shook her head to herself and mouthed a 'sorry'. She walked away from the check in table, desperately hoping those people would forget that minor crazy person moment she just had. Cass stepped a couple of feet away from the table and looked down at the paper she was handed. She read over all the info and smiled. Water Wars. She thought and smirked. She always had an unfair advantage in that game. It wasn't her fault she could control the path of water with a simple flick of the wrist. She may or may not have had to sit out a couple games before for 'suspected cheating'. Oops.

                                                          Ca** decided she should go claim a bunk in her cabin. She made her way back to her car passing a few people a long they way. If she recognized one she waved, but so far, she hadn't seen anyone she really knew. The young girl grabbed her bags from her trunk and slammed it shut. She made sure to lock her car before heading towards her cabin. As she neared her cabin, Cass noticed she was the first one there. She ran inside and scoped out the room looking for which bed would be the best. She deiced to go with one on the back right side and threw her luggage on top of the bed. She made sure she had her phone on her as she headed back out of her cabin. She decided to walk around and meet people rather than just sit in her cabin and wait. As the young girl walked around she noticed familiar red head sitting on a bench, with, no surprise, a deer standing directly in front of her. Cassadee was going to go greet Jamie, but she looked busy, she settled on just waving at her, hoping she might see her. She didn't seem to have much luck, so Cass decided to walk around again, and if Jamie was alone when she made it back around, then she would go and talk to her. The brunette stuck her hands in her front pockets as she continued to walk around the main parts of the camp.

    XXXXXXXXx` ENGEL, ANGELIKA ADAX
    XI CAN SEE THE FIRE'S REFLECTION
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXIN HER EYESX

                                                    The alarm clock rang repeatedly in her room, slightly irritating the female, making her slap the clock with the inside of her palm. The clock now was silenced, but was scorched slightly on the top. Angelika’s hand stung from the fire within, making her grip her hand tight, forcing it into a fist. The fire slowly became muffled; her fist tight from frustration. Smoke rolled out from her palm as she released it open, and now her room smelled like a campfire that had just died. Angelika could still feel like she could feel the alarms irritating beeping, so just in case, she gave it around blow to the head of the alarm.

                                                    Once Angelika managed to get out of bed, she got dressed. Her outfit was very simplistic, and all the outfits in her suitcase were the similar; the main reason being that she didn’t want to ruin her good clothes at camp. After dressing, she brushed her teeth and hair, and then did her makeup (making sure to put on her favorite read lipstick). Angelika brushed her hair till she felt it looked the way she wanted, and then put it up in a somewhat messy bun. She didn’t really care how she looked; it was just camp. And not only was it just camp, but camp where people had powers. And Angelika knew that they would let them use their powers, a lot. So why try if someone is just going to continually hit me with a water ball or god knows what else.

                                                    Once Angelika was ready, she got in her worn out car, needing to drive 3 hours to Camp Echo. But even she admits that it’s worth the time; every year, Angelika finds herself feeling more confident over her powers. Maybe this year would be the year she gets complete control of her powers, though it wouldn’t be easy. Her emotions seem to control her, more than she controls her emotions. Luckily though, Angelika isn’t some whiny a** baby. She could get use to being a hot head; she pretty much is. But nothing annoys Angelika more than someone who cries and whines.

                                                    About an hour into the drive, large trees began to fly by her car, flashing from the speed of her car. She was getting closer, soon being engulfed by forest. The trees swayed in the wind, as if waving at the cars that flashed by; the leaves on the forest’s floor pushed by the car’s speed, almost as if the leaves running. But what were they running from. Angelika’s face seemed to keep gazing off on the forest’s beauty, making her nervous about the road, which made her slow down. But luckily she was finally there. The camp was gorgeous; the buildings wood somewhat embracing the trees’ beauty, as many trees huddled around the buildings almost in respect. From the front of the Camp, you could see a glimpse of lake that seems to shimmer like a million diamonds. Camp Echo was beautiful, and Angelika could admit this much.

                                                    Angelika’s car was now parked, and her body managed to walk up to a check in table, dragging her bag behind her. She grabbed the information packets, forcing a smile across her face. It definitely was a smile she didn’t mean. Angelika walked off to the side, opening one of the packets. It told her she was in the manipulation cabin, which wasn’t that much of a surprise. It was either the manipulation cabin or the elemental cabin; either way, Angelika had to be forced into a stuffy cabin. It didn’t really matter who she was going to be rooming with, but she looked anyway; the names being Alistair, Ben, and Jamie. The only real friend Angelika had was Jude, and then there was Cass who was a pretty good friend. But Jude was the only one who Angelika could be completely honest and rude to without her even being slightly insulted. The supervisor for their cabin was Jett, who was Jude’s cousin so Angelika felt a little more comfortable. But still the whole cabin thing was uncomfortable in general. She didn’t really know anyone in her cabin, and she definitely could see her coming off as a complete b***h. But as she flipped through the packet, Angelika did have at least one activity today she was looking forward to. This activity being Power Control, which definitely interested the female; though an activity she didn’t want as Water Wars, like seriously. Though it was manageable, because both fire and water elements are equaled out; it’s still painful as hell. Soon after reading through the packet, Angelika began looking for her cabin, which she found. She picked a bottom bunk, which she claimed with her luggage. Her luggage was placed on her bunk, making it clear it was taken. Now what should she do? Was Jude here yet? Angelika sat on the corner of her now claimed bed; boredom was beginning to set in.

                                                xxxWest woke up to his roommate and best friend, Charlie, poking him in the ribs with his foot. “West,” he whispered excitedly. “West,” he repeated in a normal tone of voice. “West!

                                                The boy sat up sleepily, yawning. “Yeah, yeah. I heard you the first time. I take back what I said before, I'm investing in an alarm clock. Char your feet smell, you need to stop poking me with your foot like I'm twitching roadkill that may still be alive.

                                                Look, you're the one that asked me to wake you up and the one who decided to put his mattress on the floor. You know I'm lazy, you should have seen this coming.” Charlie grinned, and West looked up. He could 'see' the outline of the smirk. “Now get up because it's already an ungodly hour and you're lucky I still decided to drive your a** to your supercamp.

                                                Rule number one: don't expose your powers. How could you expect him to not tell at least one person? Besides the fact that Char was extremely loyal and could keep a secret even if tortured, he didn't have any other friends or a girlfriend to tell.

                                                West yawned again before getting up and going to his closet. He picked up a tight fitting shirt dark and light blue striped shirt and a pair of dark wash jeans. Though he couldn't see the colors or the patterns, he knew it would go together because he only bought blue. Char was a terrible prankster, the kind with flowers that squirted water so, lucky for West, the chances of him thinking to buy stupid clothes for his friend as a prank were very slim.

                                                After grooming, a stale poptart, some coffee, and packing up the car, West and Charlie hit the road. Of course they sang to whatever weird music played from Char's iPhone and ate McDonalds burgers as tradition for every long car trip. Char was the only person to get the oddball to talk ever and that was an accomplishment. West wasn't shy in the least, he just never really appreciated people talking about things that bored him. Usually he was someone who would hang back and let others come to him. If he liked them, he'd hold a real conversation. He just didn't like pretending to like someone it was stupid and difficult and he couldn't keep up with that. It's a wonder how he and Char came to be such good friends. Things are always different when you grew up with someone though.

                                                Two and a half hours after leaving the car was parked in the camp lot and the two went to the information desk so West could get his assignments. Charlie always liked the place so getting him to come in and do the talking was no problem.

                                                Char held open the door for his best friend and walked up to the desk. “Hey there Carol, are those new glasses?” Charlie grinned as charmingly as he could pull off. He kind of looked like a goofball when he smiled but it seemed to perk up Carol.

                                                Oh Tomas,” the older woman behind the desk shot back at Char with a blush across her cheeks. To everyone in camp except Aleks. Charlie was Tomas, a charming rebel who always knew what to say and do, was suave, and oddly enough had the same exact powers as West. Tomas' parents couldn't afford to send him to camp and didn't like him being away with the car too long anyway. Charlie's parents didn't know about superpowers, the camp, and were annoyingly rich.

                                                West was given his packet and in response he smiled and nodded so he didn't have to speak. He and Charlie went back out into the heat of the day. “You're in the mentality cabin and your counselor is Ulrica,” Char read off as they went to the car to get West's things. He looked up with a wicked smile. "Oh she's hot."

                                                West pulled out his duffel bag and laughed. "She does have a nice form," he agreed. "I think I've got it man. Thanks for the ride." As always Charlie tried to delay his departure, understandably so, not wanting to leave the beauty that was Camp Echo, before finally saying his goodbyes and leaving West to head to his cabin.

                                                The cabin smelled musky in a nature sort of way, something West could appreciate. He set his bag down and sat on the bunk. Camp Echo was his favorite place to be but, to be fair it wasn't hard to dislike home. Home. He didn't even want to think about it. Without any activities for the moment to occupy his mind he quickly had to move on to the next thing which he decided would be skipping rocks on the lake.

                                                He headed out of his cabin and down to the shore collecting flat rocks along the way. West took off his shoes when he reached the hot sand, it felt good to feel the familiar sand between his toes. He held all the rocks in one hand and used the other to roll up his pant legs and then went down to the water which he heard gently lapping the shore. He began skipping rocks, able to 'see' them dance across the water. He grinned when he got five skips in a row. Not bad but not his best. He'd want to beat his record of eight but it was very rarely that he even got six.

                                                He felt the sun hot on his cheeks, the water cold on his feet, and he couldn't help continuing to smile there like an idiot, enjoying the day.

                                                A slender hand reached out from underneath the silk sheets to slam down on the alarm clock; maybe a little too forcefully. Feeling it break apart with the pressure, an exasperated sigh escaped lips before a slur of profanity was mumbled. Gud-jävla-helvete. Jag kan inte gå en morgon utan att bryta en jävla klocka. The slender hand made its way up to a mess of wavy light brown hair. She groggily glanced around the room, gaining her bearings as she remembered she was in Timo’s house.

                                                Jude had flown into Manchester three days earlier from Stockholm, where her company’s headquarters reside. She was either training with Jett or trying not to strangle him. As much as they could get along and be civil to each other, when Timo was around his mates there was no telling how douchey he could be at any given point. Football season had one last week of tournaments left before they broke for the summer. Jude had worked on Jett’s behalf and convinced his coach that the tournaments did not really matter and were more for show than for stats and ranking. Also, the more he participated in camps and duties as such, the better he looked and the more press their team received. She probably used her powers more freely than necessary, usually she only used them in coaching her boxers and in meetings with extremely difficult clientele. This usually led to arguments with Jett who thought she abused her “talents”, as he refers to them, and could expose herself. This came back to bite Jett in the a**, as he uses her enhanced agility, athleticism, flexibility, and endurance to play for Manchester United.

                                                He had left the day before and had taken two of Jude’s bags with him. She always managed to over pack, and she was always too lazy to carry her own luggage. On her first day back in England they had made a bet on who achieved 50 goals first from the opposite goal. Who ever won had to take care of the others luggage. Like most competitions between the two, Jude had won, but only by 7 goals. Even with all of the training in the world, Jett could never beat Jude in an athletic competition. This only made the woman even more cocky and pleased that she didn’t have to carry her own luggage. There was always the tendency to pack three times as much. Owning a fashion company and her own vanity caused her to know that clothes could always be over packed. Especially with all of the activities the camp provided. She was prepared to change up to four times daily and not have to do laundry until she was back home in Sweden. As Jett was usually seen with her at public events for her company, she often packed enough clothes for a small army when they went on trips. Camp was no difference. Now that he was a counselor, she had provided him with a lot more athletic wear and more conservative clothing. Knowing full well that he was almost always half-naked with pride over his body.

                                                Swinging her legs over the edge of the bed, the brunette stood and stretched while walking to her dresser. Checking her phone, she groaned at the time before grabbing her clothes and a towel and going into the hall bathroom. There were four bedrooms in the abnormally-large house; one for Jett, one for Jude, the master bedroom was a training room, and the third was a guest room. The guest room was most frequented by Sera, who they had formed a quaint pseudo family with. Turning on the water very hot, she placed her clothes out nicely on the counter and folded the towel as she put it on the toilet seat cover and stepped into the shower. After a few minutes of letting it was down her body and the her normal cleaning it was fifteen minutes later that she stepped out of the steamed bathroom and went back to the bedroom to collect her backpack and accessories so she could leave. Her flight was in an hour, contrary to popular belief, she didn’t own a jet or even flew first class. She liked seating in economy or business, mainly so she could see and feel the stares of men with jealous wives or hormonal teenage boys as she walked on the plane and to her seat. This usually led to fights between couples and women glaring in her direction the entire flight. Even if she wasn’t as beautiful as she knew she was, her natural charisma was enough to turn heads and convince people to get her way. While some hid from their powers, Jude fully embraced what greatness they could bring her and even flaunted it. Thats why she taught Savate and boxing, to show off to others her talents without exposing her enhanced condition.

                                                “I need to be at the airport in 10 minutes. For every minute that you go under that, there is a thousand dollar tip coming your way.” She spoke swiftly to the cabby as she slide into the back seat and pulled out her phone to text her cousin and a few friends from camp.

                                                I love 2/3’s of you


                                                Hitting send, she glanced up to see the cabby glancing at her in the rearview mirror every chance he could. Making eye contact, he blushed and focused on the road. “Remember the tip.” Gud, jag älskar att vara runt främlingar. She thought, smirking down at her phone as she watched the sending picture circle. It was only 5 minutes later that they pulled up to the airport as close as possible to the doors. The driver rushed over to her door to open it, even offering a hand to help her out. “Aw, what a gentleman. There are not very many left, very sweet.” The woman kissed his cheek and walked away with her backpack without paying the dazed man. Bra Jett är inte här, han kan inte klaga Handing over her ticket to the woman, she placed her backpack on the scanner and walked through the metal detectors. There was always more security and care taken when a flight was headed to the USA, if she was flying to Sweden it would be half the time and much more pleasant. Her backpack went through quickly; as soon as she was on the other side, the metal detector blinked red and she sighed as the tall male tried to keep a straight face and scanned her. Before he even started, she lifted up her hoodie a tad to reveal her pierced navel. “It’s such a hassle to remove. I promise I don’t mean any harm.”


                                                ---------------Time Skip---------------


                                                “Hey, can I get my cabin assignment?” The brunette said fake smiling and taking the packet from the clerk. “Thanks, later.” She muttered skimming the packet for her schedule. She wasn’t shocked, or even fazed by her cabin assignment; physical cabin. There was no other way to characterize her power, she had enhanced condition. It wasn’t really a power, besides her extended lifespan and regenerative healing, she was just above olympic levels of human. Oh goody, Aleksandra is my supervisor. The elder girl was not her favorite person. Jude blamed their powers and superiority complex that they never got along. It didn’t bother her much, it just sucked that she was her main counselor. “Guess I should go see if Jett put my bags in the right bunk.” Every year since she first arrived there, Jude had used the same bunk every time. It wasn’t because of order, but because she wanted to show dominance by choosing the only bed that wasn’t a bunk-bed and with a full window. Leaving the office and walking to her cabin. She inhaled deeply and smiled. The fresh woods air always made her unusually happy, especially when she could use her powers as much as she wants, more-so than she already does. Walking into the large cabin, she grinned and silently thanked Jett for remembering her usual bed. Tossing her backpack on the bed, she headed out of her cabin and into the others.

                                                There were bags in both the Elemental Cabin and the Mentality Cabin, going to the Manipulation Cabin next, she noticed a head of curly black hair heading away from the cabins. Westley Watson, probably the only person she was genuinely nice to and tried to not be as blunt towards. Her minor infatuation had increased to a major crush the previous summer. He could be stubborn and was confident in himself, even though he was blind. The male wasn’t her usual type, they were almost the same height, no tattoos and he wasn’t a d**k. At first she thought it was only passing feelings of butterflies, then it continued on and turned into major butterflies. Even though she was known for being blunt about her feelings toward people, West made her almost nervous and shy. The only thing that semi-bothered her was his relation to Aleksandra; she never got along with the other female and she was his sister. Whenever Aleksandra was near Jude and she was talking to West, her b***h would make an appearance to keep her “tough” reputation. Pulling out her phone from her pocket, she sent a quick text to Angelika and Sera.

                                                Walking after him, she stopped and watched as he started skipping stones on the water. As quietly as she could, she took off her shoes and socks leaving them on the grass and strode to the male, trying to get there without stepping on a twig or tripping in the sand wasn’t hard. His hearing was impressive though, so Jude had to take more precaution when trying to sneak up on him, which was fine with her, helped her practice stealth and agility. There were only a few metres between the two when she stepped on a sharp rock hidden by the sand. She held her breath hoping that she still had the drop on him. West stopped throwing rocks and just stood there, she assumed she was caught until he didn’t acknowledge her. Grinning like a cheshire cat, she made it to his back and took a moment before “gently” nudging his back. Most of the time, when she thought she was being gentle, it didn’t always seem that way to other people. “Hey there, West. What’s your record today?” The brunette asked as she stole a small flat stone and rolled it between her fingers. “How was your break? Anything new and exciting happen?”

                                          WAKING UP AT four in the morning was not something ideal for Noah. Although he didn't have a preference for the time of day, he definitely did not consider himself a morning person. Perhaps he was at his best during the afternoon, the heat of the day. It would make sense with him after all. But still waking up this early was not something that Noah smiled upon. Shifting in his bed, a groan came from the boy. It was too early for anyone to be up. Why did he even need to be up this early? Another groan came from the boy, his alarm clock continuing to ring in the background of his dream. For this exact reason, Noah had strategically placed his alarm clock on his desk, which was located on the other end of his room. It would force him to get out of bed and walk the short distance to his desk to turn off the alarm. And if he pressed snooze, he'd have to leave the comfort of his bed every five minutes just to shut the alarm clock off. That was why he placed the alarm clock on his desk, because after leaving the warmth of his bed once, it would be torture to have to leave it again and again.

                                          "Shut the hell up." He spoke groggily to the alarm clock, his hand slamming down onto the off button. His eyes were still half shut and he stretched out his legs. In this half asleep state he wasn't even sure why he was getting up this early. All he knew in his mind was that he had to face one of his greatest enemies. The shower. It wouldn't be so bad if he had control over his powers, but since he had such a loose control on them, taking a shower was horrible. See, his power was focused on anger and adrenaline. When he did activities that caused him to sweat, any friction and he'd start a fire on his body. It was because of the chemicals in his sweat. So in a sense, he had special sweat. But because Noah didn't like water, the thought of taking a shower caused him to get irritated, and not only that but he didn't like taking cold showers. It was a cycle really. He'd get in the shower, about three minutes in he'd start sweating and of course with his body being covered in water, instead of fire, he'd produce smoke. And end up smoking up his entire bathroom. Which is why the thought of taking showers or anything really to do with water, he'd rather avoid.

                                          Bearing with it, Noah made it out of the shower and dried himself rather easily. With his head cleared, he remembered what today was. Camp day. He had gone before, almost every year. It was kind of hard to believe that it was already time to go back. Pulling on a casual t-shirt and jeans, Noah grabbed his already packed bags. His aunt would be driving him there today. She was already going in that direction for a business meeting, so she offered to drive him down to the camp and pick him up when it was over with. It saved his money, so he agreed to it. Normally, he'd drive himself considering that he lived alone, but this was one of those rare occasions. To be honest, it was just easier for him to live alone. That way he wouldn't accidentally hurt someone he cared about in his many mishaps.

                                          Finishing up with packing his last few supplies. Noah brought down his bags. His aunt would be arriving anytime now. He found his thoughts wandering to the camp. Camp Echo, was one of the first camps he had continually returned too. It was really because of Sera. They had grown up together, and visiting this camp together was rather fun. It was nice to spend time with someone would had similar abilities.

                                          A knock at the door pulled Noah away from his small breakfast of toast and oatmeal. He'd need to finish up quickly, if that was his aunt at the door. Upon opening the door a loud, cheery voice spoke out. "Ohhh! Noah, you've grown so much! When was the last time I saw you? It's such a shame that I'll only get to see you on the drive there and back. Where are you going again? Camp...?" As he left her pondering over what camp he was going to, he finished up his breakfast and invited her inside. "Camp Echo. Same as always." His voice came off a little harsher than he had wanted and he felt guilty seeing his aunt's expression. "Anyways, we should get going. Don't want to be late for your meeting." The suggestion seemed to make the woman happy again and she waved for Noah to follow her out to her car.

                                          The car ride wasn't as bad as he had expect. Despite the fact that his aunt was throwing questions at him every five seconds. But when they finally arrived at the camp, Noah sucked in a breath. He wasn't usually one to get nervous, but for once he was seriously nervous, staring at the entrance of the camp. With a hug goodbye from his aunt, Noah stood there at the entrance of the camp. His duffel bag slung over his shoulder. He already knew the routine. He had to check in, he'd get settled into his cabin, then explore a little bit before their counselors introduce and meet up with them. Heaving a sigh, Noah took the short walk to the check-in station. It didn't take long for them to hand over several papers for his benefit and direct him to his cabin. Elemental Cabin, same one as before. Taking his bag and heading towards his cabin, deciding it was best to get settled in before meeting up with people, he quickly scanned over their cabin's schedule. Swimming and Water Wars stood out to him immediately and a light scowl covered over his face. Perhaps he should plan on getting hurt early on, so he'd have to sit out from those activities. He could always just exaggerate and say because of his ability, he couldn't come into contact with water. But that was pushing it. A growl came from him, and he shoved his papers into a pocket in his bag. He'd deal with it when it came up.

                                          Entering the cabin, he noticed someone had already set up their bunk. Eyeing each bunk, Noah chose the one closest to the door, it'd mean an easy escape if he wanted out at night. Or you know, if he accidentally caught fire, he'd just have to dart out the door and everyone would be safe. Placing his bag onto the bunk, claiming it as his own, Noah pulled out the crumpled papers from his bag. It seemed that Sera was in this cabin again. The thought made him relax a bit, but it didn't shake all of his nerves. It was kind of odd to think that he was nervous, even though he had been to this camp before and was rather familiar with it.

                                          Finishing up inside the cabin, Noah decided it was better to leave the cabin and find someone to talk to. Instead of becoming a hermit and staying in the cabin all day. He was already so anti-social with his daily life, he had to make the best of this camp. He knew many of the people here too, so it wasn't that everyone was someone new to him. Noah exited the cabin, his hands in his pockets. It was also the fact that he was a bit of a hot head that he was anti-social. He didn't like the fact that he allowed his power to control him, and he had to work on it. Wandering around a bit, Noah found several people already at the camp. But awkwardness fell over him and he resisted against walking up to them. Instead he made himself comfortable on a bench nearby, clasping his hands together. Besides, if he was left alone he wouldn't have to ever worry about losing control of his temper.

                                                        "Bennett. ********. Off." A glare is shot towards Dustin's elder brother, Bennett. The annoying sibling continued to tease Dustin to the point of no return. There were many reasons that Dustin hated Bennett, and his teasing was on the top of the long list. For a moment, it seemed as though Bennett had shut up. Their mother had the brilliant idea the siblings taking a road trip together so that Bennett could drop off Dustin at Camp Echo. Despite Dustin's protests to not go through with that idea, Bennett had insisted. So, whatever the favorite son says, goes.

                                                        "You know what, bro. You need to take a chill pill." Bennett said as he turned down the dirt road to Camp Echo.

                                                        "No, I don't. You need to just go back home and continue sucking up to mom and dad, like you always have. Maybe if you tried actually working for something I would respect you." Dustin rolled his eyes like a teenage girl and looked out the window at the trees that passed them by. His statement had shut his brother up, and eventually they reached the gravel parking lot of the camp that Dustin had been going to for a couple years. Bennett stopped long enough for Dustin to get out of the car and gather his things before escaping back down the road to go home. A wave of relief crashed over Dustin as he realized he didn't have to deal with that again for a while.

                                                        The boy walked with his things to check-in. His adviser was Aleksandra, and he was in cabin three. So, that's where he dragged his things. Dustin took one of the remaining bunks and placed his duffel bag atop of it. Already bored, he escaped to the outdoors once more. For a few minutes, he walked around. Nothing ever changed at Camp Echo, and it bored him. But, once the activities began, even Dustin could admit that he had a little bit of fun.

                                                        As he reached the common area of camp, he saw a few people just kinda there. They were all alone, except one girl was talking to a deer. He had never seen her before, so Dustin assumed she was new. But, his eyes settled for a moment on Noah. If Dustin remembered correctly, he was a pyro, and couldn't control his temper very well. A smirk appeared on Dustin's face before he walked over to Noah. Why not start camp off with a little fun?

                                                        "Oh, hey Noah. You're looking good. Gotten any better at controlling that temper of yours?" Dustin took a seat beside the pyro, and offered him an insincere smile.

                                                        "Considering you're over here by yourself, I'm going to assume not. But, those things can't be helped right? Weak people, having weak traits and much to powerful advantages. It doesn't mix very well, does it? Don't worry, I'm sure you might get the hang of it." Never Dustin thought to himself. It truly was a pity to see people who could control their powers because of a temper problem. What were they, three?

                                                        "Let's just hope you don't throw a temper tantrum and set the whole forest aflame, right?" Dustin shrugged. He didn't have to worry about that with his power. Unfortunately, Dustin's downfall was not being able to shut his mouth. No matter what he did, whatever he thought came out of his mouth. The things he would say were usually more harmful than helpful, as seen in his interaction with Noah.

                                                        ooc;;sorry it's kinda short. but i just really wanted to get some interaction going.
