Poppy


Location: Kash's house, Kitchen area



Mood: Panic!



Interaction: Unfortunately, everyone


Poppy had finally found a coffee mug that read "Life Succs" with little pictures of cacti dotted around it. I was cute so it would do. She hummed tunelessly as she poured herself a steaming cup of black coffee. She thought briefly at the bottle of whiskey she spotted on the drink table and wondered if it was still there. She would make her way there dress up her coffee a bit. Poppy had noticed that the kitchen had gathered quite a crowd since she had gotten there. Time to change local I guess She though, heading towards the exit of the kitchen.

She had squeezed into the approximate center of the kitchen when she felt IT. It was like she had smoked one too many black and milds. It was a slightly painful buzzing in the forefront of her head. Like the start of a migraine that felt like tv static. Her coffee mug slipped in her hand and she caught it with the other hand. Poppy squeezed her eyes shut against the sudden brightness in her mind's eye. did someone slip me something? she thought in bewilderment. A series of shouts snapped her eyes back open and mind into attention.

The room was dark and maxed cried of fear and excitement were rising from the crowd around them. They sounded like they were underwater. She looked down at her cup of coffee.
She nearly pulled a hamstring backpedaling from her own arms. The mug she thought was so cute moments earlier shattered on the floor as her hands could not grip them any more. She was only partially aware that she was backed into someone.

She was on fire! Or...or that's what it looked like. Poppy watched in horror as her delicate white gloves billowed thick, navy blue smoke. It was as if they were filled with road flares instead of her hands. She ripped one glove off in attempt to remedy the issue. Poppy wished she had left it on.

Her hands looked like a horror prop. Skin and muscle were missing in large swaths, exposing sinew and bone underneath. What looked like chemical burns were quickly spreading up her arms, pouring that thick smoke the whole way. That ache in her skull was growing in intensity and she was finding it hard to think. She tried to cry out for help but all that came out was her converted teeth and tongue, pouring from her mouth in a half converted mess like a hit from a blunt.. She was aware that the people around her were pushing away in a circle, trying to escape the blue smoke pouring off her body and choking the air. She reached out to the counter, snatching the silent movie board she board. She scratched a message with what felt like exposed bone. One of her eyes had stopped working an the other filled with tears and smoke. She held up the sign weakly,

HELP
was scratched with so much panic, it chipped the black paint. Poppy's hair was completely gone and half her face was converted down to the bone, the pours in there skull poured smoke in horrific volumes. If She wasn't now blind, she would see that the room was filling with her smoke, forcing the air into other parts of the house. Poppy tried to take a step towards the crowd but found that her leg, now missing up to the knee, would no longer support her weight. Unable to keep her balance, Poppy pitched forward, dissolving into an overwhelming plume of smoke when she hit the ground.

Poppy was blind and deaf but at the same time, she could see everything. She had a complete 3D model of the kitchen flickering in her mind, every curve and movement that her smoke caressed flashed in her mind like echolocation. She could even see the form of people's lungs and circulatory systems as her particulated mass was inhaled by the panicking room. Quickly, her smoke pushed out of the small kitchen with the force of negative pressure on an airplane. Her new body pushed through the house like a sand storm, touching everything and everyone in her toxic vapor.

Lex Delgado

Electrokinesis

Lex grinned widely, pleased to have Eve to keep his embarrassing conversation skills in check. Despite having been the one to silently ask for her help, he couldn't help but feel a little patronized by her gentleness, a quality most either didn't have or didn't spare for the socially awkward boy. It was humiliating knowing Eve had to come to his rescue. He made a mental note to work on that, as if he already hadn't practically every day of his life. "Truth or dare? Um... okay, but I don't really have any good dares," he admitted, not realizing until after he said it how lame he sounded.

He turned his head to get a look at who Eve was looking at when the lights shut off, frantically feeling around for where his friends had gone. "Eve! What's going on?!" he shouted, his voice unable to make it over the sound of all of the commotion. His arms still outstretched, Lex accidentally grabbed Atti's face and he stumbled into the other boy. At the same moment, his entire body felt off. Like he was being electrocuted, except there was no pain. He felt as if his entire body was being charged, realizing his powers had made an appearance at practically the worst time possible. Worse, he was in contact with Atti. There was no telling how much the boy would electrocute his new friend if the static electricity flowing from his body continued to make contact with him.

Too disoriented to push Atti away after stumbling into him, Lex did his best to direct his powers somewhere else to keep him from being fried with an innumerable amount of electricity. To his horror, the charge left his body and jolted into the two nearest people, the girl in lingerie and a guy in his football jersey. While the guy in the football jersey had it somewhat easier, only having his eyebrows burnt off (which is horrid in its own respect), the girl in lingerie had all of the hair on her head fried off, with the remaining patches of hair left standing straight up. Lex let out a terrified yelp and recoiled, causing him to bump back into Atti and fall onto the ground.

sam maeger.
I was down for this at first, and now I want to leave. Mom, Dad, come get me. I'm scared.
(Hidden text: Kind of gross descriptions of injuries and pain; nothing major, but I thought that I should cover it up, since it made me cringe a little while writing it)

Sam chuckled awkwardly. "Y-Yeah. Pleased to make your acquaintance, Elsa..." He tried to play it off cool, but he knew that she knew who he was, and he rubbed his neck and coughed into his hand. "So...uhh...do you come here of--"

There was dark. No warning, just suddenly...dark. And then some noise, like everyone around him was panicking instead of just confused.

He saw light coming from somewhere for a moment, and then it wasn't there. What...?

Sam mumbled a quick, "What in the actual hell is going on?" His hand instinctively tightened around his beer can, and he heard and felt it crunch in his hand.

Great. Now his hand was wet with cat-piss-smelling beer, he was in the dark, and he was confused.

He heard the soft tinkling of something. Not really tinkling, more like something twisting against something else. It got higher and higher pitched the longer he focused on it. He tried to tune out the screaming and other murmurs and just focus on it.

Yeah. It was above him. Somewhere. In the complete darkness, it was hard to tell what exactly was going on, but he could at least tell that this noise was somewhere above him.

He looked up, rubbing his Adam's apple as if that would help him figure out what it was-- and, of course, it didn't. All it functioned to do was make him more confused.

He looked forward again, then blindly to his left and right. "You guys here something?"

There was soft ding-ding sounds of metal hitting the floor-- four sounds in rapid succession, and a few as the metal things seemed to settle.

He felt a presence above him for almost half a second, and then, in the next moment, he felt something smash into the very top of his head, making the loud, low-pitched sound of a large piece of glass shattering.

His nose felt heavy on his face, and he smelled metal. His head felt like his brain was slamming against the bottom of his skull, and the plastic gums of his vampire teeth scraped into his real gums as his teeth clenched together.

He wobbled on his feet for a second, letting out a soft groan, and then he gave into the feeling tugging at him and fell backwards, unconscious.

There was a dull thunk as his head slammed into the wall behind him, and soft thunks as he slid down.

When his body made contact with the ground, soft tinkling and crunching sounds could be heard. Yeah, he was definitely going to have glass in him.

Good thing that he was unconscious and couldn't feel it, or the crybaby would have been screaming at the top of his lungs and crying.

I'LL FIX THIS LATER, POST FIRST THINK SECOND

Angela and Alexander Cariou

Alaine’s advice had been helpful, or so Aria wanted her to think. She smiled and nodded politely at the girl’s suggestion to show off their costumes to the judges. She doubted the judges hadn’t seen her costume already, but she wanted some confrontation with Aria herself. See how she would try to justify not giving her the award. With an arm dedicatedly placed on the other girl's shoulders, she'd led them on to the kitchen. Where she assumed their dear old judge would be satisfying her well-known drinking habits.

Then it happened.

The sinking feeling dropping from a height, or missing a step on the stairs. That was the best way Angie could describe it. So quick, so sudden, so violent. The lights popping one by one. combined with the subsequent blindness that follow only adding to her panic. There was an alien pressure in her throat, almost as if something was dying to escape from the confines of her body. She tried to stop it, dropping her cup to the floor and bringing her hands to her neck to alleviate some of the pressure. But it was no use.

A hellish scream came from her mouth, definitely unlike anything she'd ever heard or sung before. The high-pitched screech, powerful enough to break the glass bottles and windows in the kitchen, pushed her entire body back. She landed in a heap against one of the kitchen counters, her hands firmly holding her mouth shut (for the time being, it was taxing enough to keep her voice inside). The ringing in her ears was faint, but noticeable. And the snow coming in from one of the broken windows told her of the storm outside. Amongst the chaos, all she could think was something that, unbeknownst to her, Alex was thinking about in the same moment.

"What the fuck is going on?"

One moment, Alex was laughing along with Ricky and Elliot. Bantering on the "joy" of spiked drinks at parties (pfft, okay, Cosby) and the nightmare that was Elliot's costume. Then, all of the sudden, the lights had gone out, he'd heard a loud, yet familiar scream, and then the harsh ringing in his ears that left him almost completely deaf. The more rational part of his brain told him this was likely just a product of the alcohol. Or that someone had spiked the juice with drugs and everyone was just having a bad trip and should just wait it out. Alex, fortunately, was not known for listening to that part of his mind.

He'd had his fair share of weird and unnatural since Angie had gotten her powers. If that was any similar to her situation, he knew it best to stay away and escape with as many of his friends as possible. If only he could see where they were...

Aria made herself easy to find. Being the only beacon of light in the pitch-black kitchen. From where he was standing though, and with her panicked expression, Alex could only assume she was in some sort of danger. He screamed out for her, though with the pitch in everyone's ears it was unlikely anyone would've heard, and quickly started making his way towards her. Maybe he could extinguish was going on wit her could be extinguished before doing much harm. He couldn't forgive himself if he couldn't.

Blind to everything except for her, Alex stuck raised his arms up in front of him. Running in Aria's direction when he slammed into something, or someone in her way. Too panicked to say his usual polite apology, he aggressively tried shoving past the obstacle. Whatever it was, he wouldn't let it get in the way to get to Aria.

TANIS KETTERING​

It’s quite reasonable that, at this point, Tanis might begin to panic, as per usual. She struggled to find her mouth- Her physical mouth, the one real and breathing- and make it produce a conscious sound, something to let Cosmo know that something was wrong, but she could only feel her tongue, heavier than usual- Her whole body heavier than usual, full in a way rendered foreign by the absolute emptiness of whatever doll she had entered.

She did her best to stay calm, and still, because she was in a public place, and she could walk her dolls however she wanted at home, but here, here, she could be seen, and if she was seen…

She imagined the questions, the jokes, the overwhelming presence of a doll walking on its own.

Besides, a voice reminded her, if she just calmed down, she’d find her way back to herself, right? That’s how it had always worked before.

And then she was being hit with- With something, tiny particles filling the air and hitting her in her face and arms, and she couldn’t see it, even as she began to cough against it.

The doll began to struggle, tugging at the threads binding it in place, which probably did nothing for the nerves of the person she was attached to, and she could feel herself- The doll- shaking around, and she struggled harder, rather free and on the floor and at risk of being stepped on than tied.

What if she couldn’t find herself?

Wetness hit her cheeks, but only one set, and then there was some sort of noise, loud enough her ears were ringing but they weren’t but they were, and her grip tightened. Was she bleeding? She couldn’t tell.

And then the doll was falling, far enough her body screamed, and she curled in on herself. The doll lay on the floor, still and intact.

"Huh?" Zoe replied to Indigo, no, she didn't need any help. She could handle it all on her-- The brunette was yanked out of the doorway by Aria Hansen. Of course it was her, she had to admit though it was nice to get a compliment out of her, but something told Zoe it wasn't very genuine. "Thanks, I guess." Zoe didn't know Aria well enough at all. In her eyes, she was just this popular blonde girl who probably believed she was better than everyone else. Save the whole 'don't judge a book by it's cover' thing for later, Aria Hansen was... glowing?

What? Everything was happening way too fast. Zoe began to hear screams, glass shattering, and whatever secret costume Aria had pulled out of no-where became a beacon of light in the middle of the house. People began to bump into her, some were going for the exit and others were searching for their friends-- Which had reminded her to do the same. Zoe tried her best to ignore the bodies that kept slamming into the poor, overly huge costume as she searched for her blown-up buddy.

The only rational explanation to all of this, is that there's a fight going on.

Duh, of course.

Someone had flirted with someone's girlfriend and boom. Punches, screaming, and the reveal of secret flashlights ensued.

Zoe was a regular life detective!

Spotting a dinosaur, she ran over to him, pulling one of his little arms to the direction of the exit.

"Elliot! Are you okay?"

Fletcher Hayes

No Powers
Fletcher jumped as the lights shut off, irritated to have the start of his conversation with the intriguing girl interrupted. He didn't think of it as a big deal, as most crowds of teenagers tend to scream and panic over the most unnecessary things. It wasn't until bursts of light, electricity, and a shroud of smoke filling the room that he began to question the situation. If he didn't know any better, someone had thrown a flashbang through the window, although the sudden raging snowstorm outside suggested otherwise.

The dark-haired boy coughed, placing his arm over his face to limit the amount of the smoke he was inhaling, although it wasn't very effective. He drew increasingly disoriented, realizing his heart was beating faster than a hummingbird. He fell backward against the wall, dropping his beer can onto someone cowering in the corner. He looked down at the girl, unable to focus his vision. What was in that drink? After a dazed moment, he recognized the girl to be Eve, curious as to what she was doing on the ground. He looked over his shoulder, spotting someone that looked a bit like Lex losing his balance and falling over. He groaned, not wanting to even look at him right now. All the of chaos was already too much.

Unable to force any words out of his mouth, he merely looked back down and gave Eve a mildly concerned face and moved on. It was dark, although a glimmer of light flowing from somewhere in the room illuminated his arms, which were turning an unpleasant dark blue. His arms were only growing more grotesque to look at, so he made the executive decision to stop looking at them. Now is definitely not the time. Gathering his strength to stop holding his wall, he felt his way through the crowd in the kitchen, his ears ringing from all of the sharp, sudden noises invading the space.

Then, as he attempted to shove his way out of the kitchen, a heavy force crashed into him. He turned to his side and faced what appeared to be a hideous, threatening ghoul. "Wh-what are you...?" he muttered, his face growing pale as sweat dripped down his forehead. Focusing hard, he stared at the figure that had just bumped into him as the monster bared its fangs. "WHAT THE FUCK?!" he bellowed, throwing his entire body into a sucker punch directed straight at the monster.

"i explode shit."

A mixture of coughing and laughter escaped the lips of Ricky Santanna. His lips were parted wide, laughing along with Alex, and his newest acquaintance in Elliot Jones. Ricky felt his toes tapping hard against the hardwood floors, while the boys were undoubtedly fun to be with, he was itching for a drink or ten. What was the fun in partying if one didn't get wasted and forget it all the following day? And then there was Alaina Hansen who was constantly drifting across his mind. His 'little Ms. Perfect,' and favourite science "tutor." While the pair had mutually agreed to stay a secret, it didn't make keeping himself from her in public any easier. And with the amount of scowls he'd given already just because of guys staring a little too much at his Jackie Sparrow, it seemed the male student body was having a hard time too. He'd have to hunt her down and do some inconspicuous flirting later that night.

Suddenly an itching sensation nestled itself on the pads of Ricky's fingers. Ricky felt himself charging up, and for a moment the expression of fear crossed his face. He'd learned to control his powers years ago, but now they seemed to be acting with a mind of their own. And then the lights had went out. Every last one of them.

"Was that me?" Ricky thought to himself. No, he could never do something of this level. At his side he had felt Alex brush past him, racing into the darkness towards screams further into the house. The darkness was followed by a deafening scream, one that knocked him off his balance. It took a moment for Ricky to regain his footing, and another to notice the glowing orange object in his hand. Though he couldn't see the smoke in the darkness, he could smell the paper burning in his hands, and the blunt enveloped in a bright orange energy. As quickly as he possibly could, Ricky launched the bud towards the nearest window. "Get down!" Ricky howled as the blunt exploded into a thousand fiery pieces that illuminated the room for a split second. A second in which Ricky used to catch a glimpse of just the horror each of the guests was in. The window shattered loudly, and the sound of shards shattering against the ground sent the feeling of guilt reverberating through him. Miniature fires were lit against the walls, and floors nearest to the window, but were quickly put out by snow rushing into the room.

Snow?! His body was startled as soon as it'd presented itself, successfully shocking him awake and sending shivers down his spine. "Alaina..." Was all he could muster while fallen with his back against the wall. But that name alone-- that person, was enough to jolt some sense into him and get him onto his feet. Several things were certain now: His powers were out of wack and didn't seem to be shutting off, it was snowing in the middle of fall, he'd need some plugs for his bleeding ears (fucking scream), and he had to find Alaina.

Maneuvering himself in the dark had proven difficult. If someone wasn't pushing past him and knocking him off course (to nowhere in particular), he'd end up tripping on a vomiting teen or slipping on alcoholic contents discarded when the lights were shut off. Ricky'd been forced to keep his hands tucked over his belly, and if not, ran the risk of accidentally blowing something else up. It didn't take long for him to locate the bright light shining from the kitchen though. It seemed Aria was illuminating the home with flashlights, which would've been a neat idea if they weren't stuffed in her fucking pockets. "Now isn't the time to be stingy with the light, Ari." Ricky scoffed in his head, but with the state of his hands, wasn't in the position to steal one of the flashlights. Plus she was with his best friend, and he was sure Alex would make it a big thing.

If there was anything in the world Ricky Santanna could recognize from a distance, it was those flowing blond locs of Alaina Hansen. Fortunately, with just enough of Aria's light, Ricky was able to locate her. Unfortunately, everything around her seemed to be going to complete and utter shit. Ricky stepped out of the way as a man (missing his eyebrows) limped off in tears, and grimaced at the sight of lingerie-girl missing her hair. It was definitely hard to stay focused with all the crazy going on around him.

"Alaina!" Ricky called out towards her dark silhouette. All he wanted to do now was to embrace her, hold her and tell her everything would be okay. That the screams would die down, and all that was to blame was a freak snow storm. But even Ricky himself didn't believe that. There were other parties at play, people preying on kids, and his own explosive powers holding him back from even getting near to her without risk of ignition. They just had to leave this place as soon as they could. "Alaina, can you hear me? Follow my voice..."

Disaster after Disaster

Feeling Tanis’s grip tightening on Cosmo was extremely confusing, not sure why she was suddenly getting clingy until it all hit. Where others may have seen nothing but darkness, Cosmo’s field of vision burst to life in several different glowing lights. People all around were surrounded in what they could only describe as auras, others that Cosmo shouldn’t be able to see, full glowing lights. Items, costume props, everything was an overwhelming burning glow. They tried shielding their eyes, but to no avail, the light remained the same. Their breath became quick, squeezing Tanis even closer to them as they tried to keep themself from panicking.

“Why is it so fucking bright?” They said in Tanis’s general direction, doing their best to focus in and think only about her. “Tanis? Tanis, darling, speak to me, what’s going on?”

Hearing only a moan in response, Cosmo could only feel themself panicking more. They moved in Tanis’s hold, turning enough that they could wrap her arms around their shoulders and pull her as close as possible. Cosmo began to think about the door, suddenly the lights laser focusing on the frame, cutting through the masses of people as if directing a path for Cosmo to follow.

“Tanis, just hold on, I think it’s time we make our exit, yeah? Whatever these assholes did is not worth our time.”

Just as they start to make their way towards the exit is when they hear the blood-curdling scream glow suddenly moving around as Cosmo searched for the source, eyes landing on the outline of who he thinks is Angie, her form barely seen outside of the kitchen entrance. Cosmo thanked whoever they could that Tanis and they still had their earbuds in otherwise they’d lose hope of finding their way out of here.

It wasn’t over however, Cosmo cursing under their breath as their lungs were suddenly being filled by some sort of smoke. They tried to get a better focus on it, seeking out the source like they somehow did the other times, but the mass was too vast to cover. They take a deep breath, eyes zeroing in past the other lights to focus again on the door, pushing themself to move faster. Tanis slowed the pair down, Cosmo’s lack of muscles preventing them from just picking her up, but they still pushed through the crowd best they could. They could barely understand the room around them, the sounds of electric pulses, and, holy fuck was that an explosion?

Eventually, they make it outside the door, diaphragm shaking as they take in a long inhale of breath after holding it in for so long. Their moment of relief was short-lived however as the biting cold started to sink into their skin. “You’ve got to be shitting me,” Cosmo grunts, readjusting Tanis now that there was the snow that they could potentially fall in. At least out here, they were able to think, the light fading away some as they tried to clear their mind.

“Okay Tanny, we’re in the clear. I don’t know what the fuck is going on, but I’m starting to think that the luck I was telling you about is definitely not just luck.” They close their eyes as they head for the street, focusing on the image of their hearse. It was a bit of a surprise that the Ketterings helped to pay for it, but a goal that after many years of planning, Tanis and Cosmo worked hard to get for themselves. The light returns at the edge of Cosmo’s vision, they turn their head, and just like before they see the aura that leads them towards their car.

They practically rip open the passenger seat as they unlock the car, gently guiding Tanis to a sitting position. They run around to the other side, close the door behind them as they sit, and bring the car to a start. Gently they bump Tanis, “Hey, I think we’re okay, are you with me, love?”

Lex said something about dares or more correctly his own lack thereof right after Eve ensured him that playing truth or dare was the right thing to do at the party, but before Atti could say something funny or sarcastic to accompany the boy's statement, darkness engulfed everything as electricity seemingly went out. Weirdly, the music was still going strong, but as gasps filled the room, Atti could sense that everybody stopped doing what they were doing, unsure of what was happening. He himself was unsure of what was happening, and as he leaned harder against the wall, he hoped that his vision would adjust to the dark before the whole situation escalated, which it definitely would have done, seeing that almost everybody there had at least a little bit of alcohol in them.

Before his eyes adjusted, however, he could feel a hand touch his face. He didn't know whose hand it was, nor how it managed to end up on his face, but in all honesty, it didn't even matter. The moment the hand grazed against Atti's skin was the moment that something inside of the boy shifted. It was like he had been stranded underwater all this time, and the touch managed to pull him to the surface, letting him take in a deep breath of much-needed air. It felt like adrenaline, but professedly more, and at the same time, not at all like the mentioned hormone. It felt like seeing for the first time, but in a completely different way—a revelation his own body disclosed to his mind for the first time ever.

The pressure of Lex stumbling into Atti, pushing him harder against the wall, felt almost like a defibrillator in an intense life-or-death movie scene. The weird thing, however, was that Atti felt more like the defibrillator than the person it was used on to be revived. He had power and pain mixed together, speeding rapidly through his veins, seemingly destroying them, and as he looked down at his hands, he could see sparks of electricity, like those you'd get sliding down a park slide.

"What...the...fuck..." The distressed boy managed to barely blurt out, or well basically mouth out, putting his hands onto the wall, feeling it get warmer and warmer under his skin as if it was about to set on fire any second now. While this newly acquired sixth sense type of thing made him feel more like him than anything else, he really wanted it to stop, whatever it was.

Electricity traveled in irregular beams through the room before Lex fell onto the ground, and as he did, Atti followed, sliding down the wall slowly, until coming to an even slower stop.

Screams of terror kept filling the room, the music still blasting as unexplainable things happened—exactly like the screams—coming one after another, each one even more incomprehensible than the previous. Atti wasn't focusing on any of it before, but now that he realized what was happening around him, he wanted it all to stop; he just wanted to not be there anymore.

Eve huddled on the ground, holding her arms around herself. It seemed as soon as the lights went out and the storm began, absolute chaos ensued. She wasn't sure if it was mostly her fault or if something else was at hand. She was 100% sure the storm was her fault... But the smoke? The small explosion? Lingerie girl getting zapped? That couldn't have been her. A loud scream rang through her ears, causing Eve to cover her ears with her hands. The sound sent pure ice down her veins, freezing her in place, as if it were the sound of an animal being tortured. Thankfully as soon as it sounded, it died down as well.

Someone stumbled over her, kicking her in the ribs, soon falling beside her. Another figure came down, also staying low. Eve tried to peer at their faces through the dark to confirm her suspicions of them being Atti and Lex but before she could say anything, pain suddenly erupted from the top of her head and she felt a sticky liquid drip down her face that smelled awfully like beer. Looking up both terrified and confused, her blue eyes met those of Fletcher. Her heart fluttered, seeing his concerned face watch hers. Without saying anything, he left and disappeared into the crowd of panicked kids. What was happening?

Slowly getting up, Eve stumbled and pushed her way to a window to see what was going on outside. Once she made her way to the frosted pane of glass her eyes widened, and fear stilled within her. Everywhere was blanketed in a heavy white and it snow was blowing from every direction. The storm was in full swing and had no intention of dying down anytime soon. Making her way back to her spot, she found Lex and Atti down on the floor together, both looking as terrified as she was. Stumbling down to their level and sitting, Eve took out her phone and turned on the flashlight... which didn't work for some reason.

"What the fuck is going on?" She whispered to Atti and Lex, shaking uncontrollably. She glanced around wildly again and noticed some guy in a football jersey and singed off eyebrows. More screams could be heard in the distance and Eve grabbed onto both of her friends, scared the ground just might give in below her. She was terrified more than she had ever been. Maybe she was dreaming... She had to be dreaming. But... it felt too real. Eve knew it was real but none of it made sense. "We need to get out." Her worried voice echoed out, full of fear.

Ethan Spinner ✦​

Seriously? Is this a setup for a prank or something? If turning the lights off was the whole prank, then Spinner would've been disappointed. There was some mild panic from the other party-goers about suddenly being plunged into darkness, but one girl had some sort of light-up special effects on her costume, making her the only source of light in the room. Spinner watched and waited, but nothing else happened other than a weird pressure shift that made his ears pop.

The light show turned out to be a diversion, as a bloodcurdling scream came from somewhere else in the house. Probably the kitchen, which Spinner was just leaving. It was loud enough to make him jump and unintentionally bowl over whoever was behind him. And the person behind them. He couldn't tell if it was some weird disorientation effect caused by tinnitus, but Spinner felt like he was in the air for way too long. And as soon as that thought crossed his mind, he immediately found himself going straight downwards, momentum be damned.

Now, things were getting frightening. Spinner breathed in the smell of something cooking. In any other situation, he would've assumed the situation was exactly what it looked like. But right now, with his heart pounding in his ears from the jump-scare, his first thought was that something was burning.

Spinner could just barely see the corner of the back door from his spot on the floor. As soon as he spotted it, his body lurched, barreling through the crowd towards it as if the back of the house was suddenly down. He got snagged on someone's costume, spouting apologies no one could hear as he dragged them a few feet before getting untangled. Spinner eventually hit the back wall, hard. He'd probably have a nasty bruise the next day. He opened the door, and found himself sucked through it, like an airplane window, now hurtling towards the backyard fence.

As soon as Spinner braced for impact for a second time, he was violently thrown back and upwards. He hit the roof at a low angle, sliding across the light covering of snow. It was not mentioned in the forecast, (and much too early in the year, for that matter) but there was what looked like a CGI supercell forming directly over the house. It was admittedly fun to watch, and Spinner lie there gazing up at it for way too long, bleeding in a few places and bruised in a few others, before the sounds of an explosion and shattering glass snapped him out of the trance. He quickly dialed three digits into his phone.

"Hello? I'm at a Halloween party, and I think..." Spinner chose his next words carefully. "...there's been a gas leak?"

Aria
Everything started happening so fast, until the light show contained in Aria's hands became the least of her worries. There was a horrible screech that left her head throbbing and her ears burning followed by snow blowing in through the windows -- an explosion of sparks outside. Everyone was screaming and she gave up trying to hide the glow from her hands and the smoke falling to the ground that cast a luminescent glow over the area around her. There was no denying who was by the light unfortunately.

Her gaze moved away from her hands to look at everyone else and the chaos that had ensued. She heard something -- she was pretty sure it was her name and her blank stare shifted around to see who it was. Her eyes fell on Alex and she couldn't hide the small twitch of her lips perking into a smile at the sight of him.

Despite the fact that had become the single source of light in this house, Aria still felt invisible. She was always kind of invisible. So maybe it was nice to know that someone thought about her, alright? Or saw her.

The whole Alex thing was kind of thwarted by... Fletcher. Fuck that guy. Not that she technically had anything against him -- but then he punched Alex out of nowhere. And before she knew it, they were fighting and fuck that guy and fuck this.

Aria had never managed to hurt anyone with her powers. Or anything. Hell, she could barely get her powers to stay together long enough for her to shoot them. But now, well, there was so much chaos and she had to do something to help Alex. So she took in a deep breath and started walking closer -- she hadn't figured out the distance thing, okay? And then she brought her hands up, forming that familiar glowing ball in them.

Alex had pulled back to punch Fletcher, so she took this moment to shoot the light from her hands, wincing slightly as the ball of light slammed into Fletcher and knocked him away from Alex.

"Sorry!" She yelled over the chaos -- again, wincing, because maybe she felt a little bit bad about what she had done to Fletcher. Just a little bit even though the guy probably totally deserved it.
 
Lex Delgado

Electrokinesis

"S-sorry!" Lex stammered, blushing as he realized he had fallen right into Atti before he hit the ground. He looked up with concern, afraid he had burned the boy's flesh or something. However, he seemed unaffected. Instead, it was almost as if he had conjured all of that electricity himself. But only Lex had those powers? And he had already directed all of his stray static electricity in the opposite direction. How did he do that? That was definitely not me... He continued staring at Atti, dumbstruck and at a loss for words.

The sound of Eve's voice snapped him back into reality, although he could hardly hear her over the noise and the ringing in his ears. He had returned to his previous state of staring in shock, this time squinting at Eve as he struggled to read her lips. "D-did I h-hit you?" he asked, embarrassed not only that he'd shocked, ran into, and tripped over several people but also because he couldn't tell at all what she was saying. He noticed the stutter in his voice and realized his teeth were chattering. "It's r-really c-cold..."

He couldn't bear to stand up, or even sit up. Nothing made sense. The dazed high schooler just wanted to curl up into a ball and wait for it all to end. The police had to be arriving eventually, right? Or the fire department? The smoke filling the other side of the room had to be the source of some fire or something? Lex knew he couldn't stay. His heart was still beating rapidly. He really, really wasn't a fan of danger and risks. But now? This is, like, a totally new level of danger. "W-we have to g-go!" Can she hear me? I can't even hear me. Lex's eyes drifted to a flash of light, horrified to see Fletcher on the other side of the room. How did he get here? Did he bike here? Why's he... oh god, is he beating someone up? His head hurt and his stomach burned. It was growing harder and harder to not pass out. If the cold and his exhausted body wasn't enough, he could barely move in a straight line. "I think I'm gonna be sick!"

TANIS KETTERING​

Tanis- The doll- began to crawl, slower and slower, each movement becoming more and more dream-like, until-

Tanis was Tanis again, and she could breathe, and she was cold, and there was Cosmo, and they were speaking, and she’d hug them, but they were already holding her.

Everything, in that moment, was too much, too confusing, and she continued to feel those tears on her cheeks as she just breathed. She could still barely process just about anything- Was it snowing? Was that why she was cold? Why was it snowing?- but she still managed to get enough to get the idea that… whatever had just happened… wasn’t just weird for her.

Tanis sighed as she was helped into the car, offering a smile- It was a hard motion to make, momentarily forgotten by the sudden start and end of being a doll.

She didn’t say anything for a good long second, sighing quietly to herself, then turned to Cosmo, smiling to them. “I’m with you.” She buckled her seatbelt, quiet again. Now would be the moment to bring up the stars, wouldn’t it?

And she wanted to. My god, did she want to. Ever since she’d realized the stars were weird- That she had powers- she’d yearned to tell him.

She took a breath, then said, “Hey, Cosmo?” The words were sticky in her throat. “Did you see the stars fall out of the sky a month ago?”

 
Mi-Young Park
Winona Winona ditto ditto /anyone near her?
Everything happened so fast. She was talking to the boys when all of the sudden it was like all hell broke loose. Mi-Young couldn't focus on anything but what was going on inside her. She suddenly felt cold, very cold. This was weird for a number of reasons. One, they were at a packed party which meant a lot of heat coming off the bodies and two, ever since she got her powers she never really got cold anymore. She didn't know if anyone else felt the temperature around her drop but she sure as hell couldn't hide it when ice formed from beneath her feet and then shot out.

Mi-Young squeezed her eyes shut and tried to breath. No,no,no,no,no. We've practiced this Mi-Young. What is going on? Mi-Young took a step back away and ice formed where she stepped. She instantly dropped her cup when there was a piercing screech filling the room. Her hands went up to her ears and ice started to crawl up peoples feet that were near her. The mix of her panic and everyone else's was causing her to just not control anything well. I knew I shouldn't have come out tonight! When her breathing calmed she opened her eyes. The room was dark and there was a source of light in the opposite direction but she didn't know what was causing it. She needed to leave now but just didn't know how.
 
Amelia Glass
Amelia didn't even look at the boy who popped up next to her. She hadn't seen any light in him when she was scanning the room before so he was of no interest to her. "So who are you supposed to be?" At that, Amelia choked on her drink. That was a first. "Have you every heard of Game of Thrones? I'm Daenerys Targaryen." It was a bit of a refreshing surprise since most people associate her to that character. "significant others hold people back and even if they didn't why would I be looking for one here, at a drunk fest." She took another sip of her drink. She hated that most girls her age just wanted to party and have boyfriends. She could care less about that stuff, even before the incident. Normally she wouldn't mind holding a conversation with someone who didn't immediately call her Daenerys or Emilia Clarke, but she was here on a mission. A mission she currently wasn't prepared for.

Amelia knew when the device went off. An explosion of power happened and it the brightness of it caused her to scream. All of those who had powers in the house, their bodies shined so brightly it burned. Man she needed to learn how to control that. Amelia had to keep her eyes shut for who knows how long, before the brightness dimmed down enough for her to fully open her eyes. Anyone who could see her eyes would see that her pupils were almost non existent as they were trying to let as little light in as possible (which in the darkness of the house was weird) Now it was time for her to get to work and take whoever's light was dimmest in.

hery hery /anyone else​
 
A Sudden Realization

The widest smile of relief spread across Cosmo’s face when Tanis first responded to them. They very gently brought their heads together, pressing their forehead against Tanis’s as they held her as close as they could. “Thank god, I was afraid I lost you there in that madness. Or whatever the hell that is,” they jester wildly to the house a lawn or two ways away. “Whoever was the asshole that started all this, I hope karma bites them in the butt.”

They let out a gulp, pulling away from Tanis at the mention of the stars. They couldn’t think of why Tanis would be bringing this up at a time like this, maybe it was residue hysteria from the disaster of the party. Or perhaps, when they truly took a few moments to think about it, maybe the two events did have a correlation.

“I uh, one-second love,” Cosmo stalls time, opening up their phone to the many pings of twitter, hoping that mindless responses to whatever the riff-raff would allow them to clear their head and decide how to answer Tanis. They were best friends, and it was really just a simple question. Yet, if she was thinking about what they were just starting to think, if what they were just able to realize that they could do. Of course, there was no other choice. Cosmo would spill all their secrets for Tanis. How could they not?

They give a sheepish nod, something quite uncommon for them, “Sorry, that was rude of me. I just needed a second.”

“I did see the stars,” they let out a breath they were holding in with their answer, “It was right around the time, I thought I was just suddenly luckier than usual at finding things. I’m starting to think that’s not the case anymore.”

“I can only assume, but did you see them too?”

Alexander Cariou

At first, he'd thought the sudden blow had been another product of... well, whatever had blown up the lightbulbs and created the thick fog. Well, at least he knew something more about whatever had ruined the party; it had a mean punch. His original goal of helping Aria was long forgotten. He couldn't very well help her if the creature in the dark killed him first. Quickly, before it could attack him again, Alex returned the punch in the general direction of where he figured the attacker would be (fist fights were harder than they looked when one couldn't see), satisfied when he felt his knuckles connect with flesh.

Alex hadn't been in many fights. He'd been bullied as a kid, and often beaten up, but the moments where he'd fought back against his assailants were few. He cursed his sister for always making sure he wasn't getting into any trouble. If that hadn't been the case, then perhaps his history would've given him an advantage. His strength wasn't bad, not even close, but no amount of muscle saved him from the overwhelming fear blocking his mind. He assumed whoever he was fighting had to have powers like Angie's - what else could've caused so much destruction, multiple people with powers? Yeah right. No, he wasn't going out without a fight.

His mouth filled with the familiar metallic taste of blood. Though he couldn't make out if it'd come from his busted lip or possibly broken nose (he'd felt it crack, but it didn't hurt as bad as a broken nose probably did. Though, then again, it could just be the adrenaline talking). His knuckles, now red and oozing, continued blindly hitting the faint outline of the figure he'd been able to make out now that his eyes were more accustomed to the darkness. Once it extended its arm once again, he took the chance to grab the limb and twist it. He'd seen people in movies breaking arms by moving it in a specific way, he just had to figure out how...

As he struggled with the arm, a source of light started walking closer to them. A light bright and close enough for him to see who he was fighting and drop his arm in amazement. It was Fletcher, not looking any better than Alex did.

"Fletcher! What the fuck, man!" he exclaimed, ducking from an incoming punch. He knew Fletcher wasn't the best of people, but what could've made him lash out at him? Why him, specifically? Wasn't he friends with Angela?

He didn't have much to ponder on the reason before a ball of light pushed his assailant away. He turned to face the light, only to find Aria herself. The person he'd been meaning to save from the lights that engulfed her hands now using them to save him. Alex rushed towards her, stopping himself just before he reached for her still-glowing hands.

"You have powers too?" he asked -- screamed, really. No matter how much he wanted to hear how, or why she could shoot light from her hands, it was a problem they could tackle later. Not in the midst of the chaos. "We need to leave, now!"

"i'm normal."

The party had been in full swing for some time now, and Oliver found himself glancing towards the time on his wristwatch ever so often. His hips bobbed to the sound of the music in the background, with a senior girl matching his moves in front of him... yet, his mind drifted elsewhere which left his moves dry and unenthusiastic. Cade would be carrying out only the first stage of things, and turning on the device. This led Oliver's stomach to turn in anticipation. In only a couple moments all the powered individuals would be exposed, and he'd finally be able to get a good look at just who needed to be apprehended.

"What's wrong, Agent K? You don't look so excited." The girl asked with a soft smile. Oliver frowned at the comment, gently pushing her forwards, and out of his vicinity with an arm.

"You're interrupting my train of thought. And it's Agent H. From like, that new Men in Black movie. Stay woke." He stated matter of factly and turned on his heels. "Also, if I were you I'd consider a different costume next year. Those coconuts are all too small for your prepubescent cherries." Oliver smirked as gasps then chuckles sounded in the area. He strolled confidently off the dance floor, eyes locked down on Cade in the distance. Before anything, Oliver prepared himself for the two powers he did already know about. He was already a safe distance away from Cade's pain infliction (which wasn't something he enjoyed getting entangled with), and reached into the pocket of his tuxedo for two bright orange ear plugs. Once adorned in each ear, he nodded down at Cade towards the liquor table and watched the device activate.

A mixture of anger and curiosity boiled throughout Oliver in the split second of power activation. The idea of powered individuals had always intrigued him since he was a child. He even had a strong admiration for the Marvel comics too, not that father often allowed comics anyways. The idea of people being capable of achieving the extraordinary purely through fate, drugs, or magic always enticed him, and when he found out it was possible the childhood feelings came rushing back. All to vanish when he realized he was still just normal. It didn't matter now though. All the cursed would soon be reverted back to normal, and the playing field would be leveled out. All besides Cade and Angela though. He still liked them.

The first thing to happen was the lights. All flickering off in unison. "Hm, interesting." He noted, though that alone wasn't what set things into motion. It was the mess unfolding behind him. Calmly, Oliver removed his phone from his pocket, and activated the 'flash' feature whilst recording the scene unfold. He recognized Sam Maeger under the (horrible) guise of Nosferatu, and watched as his own abilities manifested. The poor chap couldn't grab a hold of what seemed to be magnet-based abilities, and kept throwing objects at himself till he was passed out cold.

Using the flash of his rolling camera as a guide, Oliver continued strutting towards the rest of the house, and mostly followed where he heard the most screams. On the journey there he'd capture a teen morphing into literal gas (gosh did she make for some terrible coughs), an animated doll, and an explosive roll of weed. "You definitely got the bang on your buck for that roll, weasel." Oliver laughed into the camera. If it wasn't for such dire motives, one would've thought he was recording a haunted house with all the flashes of scared faces running past the camera.

Past the chaos, even more was tucked away in the kitchen. Oliver used one hand to direct the body of Alex Cairou away from him following a nasty punch from..? He turned the direction of his phone camera ahead of Alex onto a confused Fletcher. Oliver's eyes thinned in annoyance. What were the knuckleheads doing brawling at a time like this? What occurred next though was something he couldn't fathom. Just as quickly as Aria Hansen appeared with both her hands (engulfed in bright white light) out front, they fired off in the direction of Fletcher. His amazement quickly shifted into annoyance though. An ingrate like Aria with so much power? That was part of the reason he'd agreed to aid his contact. Because useless people like her got to shoot fucking laser beams from their hands.

He couldn't make out any of their words though with plugs tight in his ears, and so with that performance he continued on to the next. The rest of the fun in the kitchen only seemed to be dying down. Or perhaps the powers in effect just couldn't be captured on camera. It didn't matter anymore though. The flash of the camera took in the image of Angela in the corner, distraught and confused. Though he'd cut the recording, he used the light of the camera to navigate himself over the cowering bodies on the floor, and could feel the ringing of her sonokinesis growing with every step closer.

Like any good friend, he had to come to her aid. In Oliver's case he felt he was the one always protecting her. She was too much of a risk-taker and it almost always got the best of her.

"You should've anticipated your powers would be out of wack and just duck-taped your mouth shut." Oliver crowed, but brought a hand under Angela's arm pit to stabilize her. He didn't hesitate to continue his own side of the discussion though, unable to hear her words anyways. "Unlike you I've actually been up and working to identify some of them. Maybe we can sort through my footage and make out who's who?" What was the point though? With stray music, kids screaming, and shit blowing to pieces Oliver would've been surprised if Angela could hear him at all.

"Ugh, I hate it when she's mute. Like a fucking vegetable. Diss my preppy tailored pants or perfectly gelled hair, jheez!" Oliver thought, limping towards the entrance of the home with Angela on his arm. "A couple feet out of this bitch and the device's effects should wear off. At least if Cade wasn't bullshitting me. I can never read that guy's expressions."

Fletcher Hayes

No Powers
Fletcher's breathing was quick and heavy, fear taking over as the supposed monster fought back. He recoiled for a moment, positive the creature had just given him a black eye. I'm already blind enough as is! He cried out in pain as his arm was twisted, tensing it and swinging his other arm around in for a punch. Is this thing a fucking ninja!? The creature spoke to him, but he barely listened. The light in the corner of his eyes was so bright it stung. All the noise melded into one garbled, panicked screaming voice. The disoriented boy grew dizzy, grabbing his head from the aching pain in his head. Exhausted, he threw one last punch forward, but before it could connect with his opponent, he was knocked to the side by a bright force.

He lay limp for a second, his eyes shut tight due to the unbearable migraine he had. When he opened his eyes, he could see more clearly. He looked up at the girl dressed as Daenerys he had spoken to before the chaos began. He chuckled a little, remembering her words about boyfriends before shit went down. His smile faded as he watched her scream, staring at her practically nonexistent pupils. "Are you okay?" he asked, although with all of the noise and his dazed state, his words were nothing more than a whisper, impossible to be heard by anyone around him. With his senses returning to him, he suddenly realized how chilly he was. He looked down at his shirt, which had bits of real blood that had dripped out of his bloody nose. He didn't even need the red food coloring to look like a bloodied zombie anymore. He felt for his nose, which didn't feel broken, so that was a win. The first word he could really comprehend since he began to hallucinate was a "Sorry!" from Aria, unsure what she was apologizing for. Did she knock me down? From all the way over there? He looked up and got a look at Alex, whose face seemed just as screwed up as his own. Fletcher rubbed his fist, wincing in pain. Was that me? What came over me...? With a pained grown, the recovering boy got up onto his feet, which was hard when masses of teenagers were running around and stomping everywhere all around you. He spotted Angie with some guy- wait, Oliver? And he was taking her outside. That guy was way too calm for this scenario.

The pain and confusion was the least of his problems. What Fletcher hated the most was not at all knowing what was going on. Being in control was kind of his... thing. He tried to make his way toward Alex and Aria, glaring at Aria for doing whatever the fuck they had probably just done to him, but was stopped short as his dizziness returned. Before he could get far, he collapsed onto the table, spilling someone's drink on his bloodstained shirt.

Eve could barely hear what Lex and Atti were trying to say to her. The sound was so loud, she felt as though she might go deaf. Deciding to assume they agreed with her, she grasped onto both of their arms and dragged them with her. As she got up, the room began to freeze and Eve felt herself shivering. Was this her fault? Was it from the snowstorm? She couldn't tell, there was too much chaos. Coming from the kitchen were flashes of light and Eve decided that that may be her best bet of getting out of there. Maybe someone had some flashlights?

As she stumbled into the kitchen, boys in tow, her eyes widened to see Aria shooting a ball of light towards Fletcher. Her heart nearly stopped as she blinked, trying to take in the situation. Did... Aria have powers? Before she could dwell long, Alex, bloodied up from Fletcher's fist made his way over to the lady of light and Eve remembered that Fletcher wasn't in good shape.

"You guys get to my car! I'll get Fletcher!" She shouted at the boys, hoping they'd hear her correctly. Letting go of their arms, she shoved her way through the crowd of people until she found Fletcher bloodied and slumped over a table. Eve groaned at his state and shook the boy, her heart fluttering fast. Not now, Eve, you can't be freaking out about touching a boy right now. She told herself as she attempted to put Fletcher's arm around her shoulder so that she could drag him out of there. Her heart thudded in her chest as she tried to lift him off the table. "You are so fucking lucky I like you enough to help you." She muttered as her knees buckled under his weight from holding him. As she began to make her way out slowly, her eyes caught sight of a familiar figure.

"Who the fuck let the Roach in here?" She yelled out in anger, not wanting to deal with Oliver's antics. He seemed to be oddly calm and focused for someone going through all this chaos. It wouldn't surprise Eve if he was the cause of it. Her eyes glared at him, looking his suit up and down. Of course, he would wear a suit to a fucking Halloween party, the conceited ass. As she moved to look towards the door, she found herself tripping over her shoes and she fell with an oof, Fletcher toppling onto her and trapping her down to the floor.

"Why the fuck are you so heavy Fletch." She groaned from underneath him, wheezing from a lack of air. Of course, she had to fall in front of the one guy she would punch if she had the chance. And with Fletcher of all odds too. This was officially the worst Halloween party.

Poppy


Location: Kash's house, all at once



Mood: Extra Panic!



Interaction: Unfortunately, everyone


The dark blue smoke that permeated the house hung in the air like a haze after a rave. It had thinned from the plume of a tire fire to that of a haunted house fogger. Poppy was barely conscious, ironically it felt like she was floating in her own mind. She was only partially aware of the panicked student body stampeding for a way out. In her minds eye, the picture formed of the room was getting less and less focused and she was no longer able to keep her cloud together. Poppy assumed this is what it felt like to die. Her arm were freezing.

Arm? She though, snapping from her trance. Checking again confirmed that she could, in fact, feel something cold and wet pressing against one of her palms. She stretched her mind farther, trying to figure out where the feeling was coming from. Finally like a beacon in the murky translation of the room, she could see it. Laying on a small carpet of gathering snow, was a partially skeletal left arm. The sight was...alarming to Poppy. More alarming still once she saw the fingers twitch. If Poppy had a brow it would be furrowed.

Focusing on those twitching fingers set something off with her powers. It felt as if Poppy was being stretched like elastic and she was finally released, finally allow to snap back together. The smokescreen throughout the house began to congregate in the living room. It looks like someone playing footage of smoke backwards the way it crawled unnaturally across the floor and walls, exiting nook and crannies and people's lungs. The smoke collected into a swirling mass around the arm, temporarily blocking it from view.

The ordeal took seconds but it was a struggle for Poppy. She was busy focusing on a picture of herself in her mind, trying to reconstruct her physical form and praying her power followed suit.
With a deep, much needed inhale, Poppy was solid again. She pitched forwards into a coughing fit, one that no joint could ever cause. It was like she would never breath again. Something's not right! she thought, fear rising in her chest again. The next round of coughs expelled a thick plume of smoke, NO nononononono she screamed in her head as more and more smoke poured from her mouth. Her internal organs fully converted and took the rest of her with them, giving the illusion that Poppy coughed herself inside out, her form deflating

As a cloud of smoke again, she whipped around the room unnaturally. Like the ghost of a sports drone, she whizzed though the crowd, briefly engulfing them. The smoke forced it's way out the front door and into the chaotic night. The storm instantly scattered her blue cloud, threatening to rip Poppy's consciousness apart. With a burst of mental fortitude, Poppy snapped back together...forty feet above the ground. In her moment of suspension, Poppy made eye contact with...some dude up here with her? He seemed busy with a phone call so Poppy didn't want to interrupt. She just gave a feeble wave of acknowledgement before plummeting towards the ground
The ground rushed impossible fast up to meet her. Poppy screamed and shielded her face with her arms.

Hitting the ground caused her to explode into yet another cloud of smoke, this time she was grateful. The wind grabbed her again and flung her towards the street. This time, she reconstituted just in time to slam into the hood of someone's running car. Bouncing off and onto the cold, hard pavement of the street. Trying to stand, Poppy caught her reflection in the dark window of the car. Silhouetted by the streetlight behind her, she could see a halo of writhing smoke coming off her head. Amazed, she ran one hand though her hair, causing it to expel more. It was then she realized that someone was in the car she was checking her reflection in. The surprise was enough to cause her to crumble like a sand statue.

Once again, Poppy was flung though the air randomly by the ripping wind. This time, she was aiming for the house. A portion, don't ask which one, of her body had made it's way back into Kash's partially destroyed house. Focusing had on that piece of herself was enough to snap the rest of her particulated mass into they relative safety of the house. Her cloud began to swirl and collect into one corner of the living room Ok, fingers, toes, ankles, knees, thighs, wrists, lungs, tongue, heart, eyes, hair, nose...we got everyone? She though, her mind moving much slower after the stress of the past few minutes, "The Gangs all here" she said with an exhausted giggle as she sank to her knees. She wrapped her arms around herself to calm her shivers. Her dress had been, destroyed, lost or both during her ability awakening. Now she was only dressed in a black sports bra and a pair of black leggings. Her hair had come undone, leaving it to writhe in a tangled mess around her head, the tips constantly putting off faint wisps of smoke like incense sticks.She was tired and scared and still drunk and all she wanted was to be home in her own bed. All she wanted was for this to be over.
 
atticus bailey
Atticus didn't know what was louder: the helpless cries of utter panic coming from the people around him, or the rapid beats of his heart he both heard and felt everywhere in his body. He focused on them, made peace of them in the growing entropy encompassing him—which was the only reason he wasn't seemingly falling apart as everybody else had been. While he desperately didn't want to be there, Atticus couldn't force himself to move either, just sitting in the same place, his back resting against the wall, and his eyes closed. At this moment, fading into the background took on a completely new meaning for Atti.

It was only when Eve came back and started speaking that Atti came back to reality and that his ears started to pick up what was going on around him. Ironically enough, he didn't understand any of the words that left Eve's mouth, nor those that left Lex's mouth—he just knew that both her and Lex were saying something.

Eve took hold of Atti's hand, and then it was the sensation of the sixth sense all over again. Being able to breathe after drowning, the adrenaline rush which wasn't really an adrenaline rush, seeing for the first time and all that bullshit. But this time, instead of his veins hurting and his skin going crazy and flickering with electricity, Atticus felt a hole where his stomach should've been. It felt like a heartbreak, only worse—empty and cold.

His breaths remained shallow but accelerated as Eve pulled him on his feet and dragged him through a crowd of people running and screaming for their lives. His other hand, the one not in Eve's grasp, found its place on his stomach, basically pressing against it as the pain intensified. From the moment Eve's skin touched Atti's, the room began to get colder and colder, if that was even possible, and while neither of them knew this, it was largely Atti's fault.

Eve eventually let go of the two boys, having to go get some guy Fletcher Atti had never previously heard of, leaving the two boys to get to the car alone. This was something Atti would've been fine with if he knew which car he was going to, but the only person who knew that information and was hopefully able to share it with Atti in the necessary time limit was about to be sick.

"Oh, buddy, please don't puke on me. I will 100% leave you here if you do." He said, putting his arm around Lex, trying to get both of them out of danger. The air had been cold, but feeling Lex's freezing clothes was the thing that made Atti realize exactly how cold it was and made him wonder how he hadn't realized that a lot sooner.

Elliott
All of the chaos seemed to happen at once and Elliott decided that he wasn't a fan of high school parties anymore. Between the screeching, the snow, the lights going out, and everything else, Elliott's head was swimming and all he really wanted to do was get out of there.

But first he needed to find Zoe which turned out to be a lot harder when you were trying to maneuver in an inflatable dinosaur costume. And during his wanderings in search of her, someone managed to pop his T-rex costume and it slowly sputtered out, deflating around him until he was just shuffling around with a giant T-rex head trailing after him.

Zoe found him and he nodded his head at her question. "Yeah!" He yelled over the chaos. "Let's get out of here." Elliott said and without waiting for an answer, he wiggled his arm out of the costume and grabbed Baymax's arm and dragged Zoe out of the party and into the safety of the outside -- before most of the chaos started happening, mind you.

Elliott didn't let go of Zoe's arm until they had stumbled outside and finally, he felt like he could breathe. He let go of Baymax but didn't stop walking. Elliott was determined to put as much distance between himself and that house as he possibly could, so he started shuffling away. "Zoe, are you alright?" He finally asked now that they were safe.
