Jordan was impressed with Dante's ability, even if he could only do it for so long. She nodded and turned to one of the jugs. She thought about it boiling, focused on just it.
Nothing happened.
She thought about giving up, but what would Dante say? He'd think of her as a lazy slacker.
She grabbed her arm with her nails and squeezed hard, focusing again on the jug. She squeezed harder, and the water bubbled a little. She narrowed her fingers until they were pinching tight, and the watter started to boil a little.
"I did it!" she said, and the water didn't boil anymore.
But she'd done it, done it by choice. She rubbed her arm. It had hurt though.

"Tch... Boy, was that pathetic," Dante said, visably unamused. "You hardly even got it to boil. Sheesh, quite the mutant you make, huh? I really don't see why Professor X would waste his time on such a weakling... Maybe they could use you in the kitchen or something. Although I doubt you'd be of much use there either. It's really sad. I'm sorry. Sorry you suck so bad that is..." He ranted on angrily, scowling and frowning at all the appropriate moments. "Well, what do you have to say for yourself?" he sneered.

"I told you I'd never done it without being angry before! Sorry I'm not as skilled as you, but you don'y have to be so rude about it!"
She didn't notice the water in each jug bubble again, a little more this time, she was too busy storming off.

"Maybe you can't do it because you've never tried!" he called after her. "Fine! Run away again! Isn't that what you did before? Isn't that why you're here? I can see now that you'll never be anything more than a failure! You'll just keep running away whenever you get scared or angry!"

Jordan turned, forgetting about trying to be calm.
"Shut up! Just - shut - UP!" she screamed, and the jugs all exploded. She turned and ran, crying.

"Yeah! You go! You run away! Go ahead! Go right ahe-- *urk*..." Dante was cut off in the middle of his rant. He clutched his chest, coughing and gasping for air. He felt hot all over, as if the very blood within his veins was heating to well beyond the normal range. "Jor... dan..." he coughed as he collapsed to the ground."

Walter had been listening from nearby the grove. He had gone into the woods to get away and think and he found this place. He didn't really care about what was occuring but got interested when the boy showed his power and told that girl he had seen before how to focus.
As the boy fell, he was greatly concerned. He had seen other mutants powers unveil without their knowing it. That's what was occuring here abd as the girl ran off into the forest he rushed to the boy's side to help him.
"Dude are you alright?" Walter asked, extremely concerned. The last thing he wanted to see was someone else get hurt....

Limping out of the Danger room Rob walked up to his instructers. His cloths torn nearly completely off by the droids inside. " SCott why in the world did you turn it to 10. You know I just started on 9. I mean d**n what are you trying to kill me?" Rob was coughing and yelling at Scott. " Mimicat you need to calm down and check out your score before you keep going on your rant dude." Kitty said as she points to a monitore. On the screen was a list of names of who all have done level 10. His name was number 8 of the top 10. All the other names were just Wolverine. "Cause of you I'm off the list now." Scott says with a smile. " So you just go to your room and get some rest before you pass out here on the floor." With that Rob limps his way to his room. Wishing he knew where Logan was cause he would just heal himself.

Jordan stopped running when she tripped over a rock, and saw no one in sight. She sat there, curled up with her arms around her knees.
She done it, but out of anger. Why had that guy been so rude? He didn't have to accuse her of giving up like that. She tried. She'd done it, and it hadn't been enough for him.
What if she'd hurt him though? If anyone found out, they'd kick her out of the school.
She just sat there and cried.

Dante sat up with the help of the boy now at his side and winced. He forced a chuckle. "Ya, I'm alright," he coughed out, "I was just practicing with a friend of mine... I tried to get her to really let loose by provoking her a bit, but I guess I took it a little too far." He took a few deep breaths and pulled himself up. "She ran off in that direction... she was pretty upset I think, which could be a bit dangerous... We should try to find her so I can explain myself..." He started to walk off into the trees. "Oh... thanks, by the way... uh.... what's your name?"

Walter was glad to see that the boy was alright.
"What's my name?" Walter responded," Uhhh...I guess you can call me Eneros. Everyone has been calling me that since I got here. Say, you can teach that girl to focus her abilities, huh? Ummmm....could you teach me as well?" he asked in a solemn voice....

"Uh... Yeah, sure... I mean, I guess I can do what I can..." Dante said, somewhat surprised. "Why don't we just start a club?" Dante chortled. "But first things first, wanna help me find this girl? Her name is Jordan. She couldn't have gotten very far." With that, he was off into the woods calling to look for Jordan and calling her name out loud, still coughing occasionally.

When she calmed down a bit, Jordan could here someone calling her. She didn't answer. If whoever it was didn't find her, then they couldn't tell her she had to lesve the school, couldn't accuse her of anything.

"Jordan!.... It's Dante!... Please answer me!... Jordan!" Dante tromped through the undergrowth in the general direction he had seen Jordan run. He coughed again and stopped to look around. In the darkness he thought he could see a pair of boots that could belong to the girl he was looking for. "Jordan?" he called softer than before, inching toward the boots. "It's me, Dante? Is that you?"

As the voice got closer, she thought more about being kicked out of the school. Hiding wouldn't help. They'd find her.
When the voice sounded only a few feet away, she realised it was Dante.
"What do you want?" She called out.
