Terry awoke on a mountain path. Jesse was by his side caring for his well-being.
Terry bolted up and immediately voiced his concern. "What happened, I blacked out, we shouldn't have lived that" Terry bellowed, causing Jesse to jump up in fright.
"Arielle used the winds to get us out of there, Everyone else is alright but Mitch is gone." Jesse replied.
Terry understood what she meant and looked at the surrounding area.
Cody was patroling the area, marking glyphs to stabilize the ground, Arielle was meditating and Shelby seemed to be looking at a book. "Caitlyn and Tyler?" Terry asked and Jesse spoke instantaneously "Out hunting".
"Food?"
"No"
"Shelter?"
"No"
"Water?"
"No"
"What else could they possibly be..."
"People"
"......Oh....."
Jesse could only nod after that remark and got up and walked over to Shelby.
Terry was no longer fatigued but he was unsure of his role in the team.
Shelby was the leader of the team, calm and cool-headed yet at times unable to make a decision, but everyone trusted her nonetheless.
Caitlyn: frisky, carefree and happy-go-lucky, she was a front-line fighter that seemed sure of her ability.
Tyler: He appeared mysterious to Terry. Tyler was silent, he wore his trench coat most of the time, his hat left most of his face in shadows, but this mysterious air also sported an aura that screamed danger to Terry.
Arielle was a kindhearted and kindred spirit, she cared for others and is a versatile member of the team. Winds to boost the speed of the team, creating walls to block objects. and even using them to cut apart her foes.
Cody was a goofball he but supported the team though his glyphs. He could move, manipulate weight, and even stabilize any object he wishes, with either a direct or area effect.
Jesse would be the future healer of the team yet what would Terry be?
All Terry could think about is how useless he was. The odd man out, no skills what-so-ever. The only thing he got going for himself was being a meatshield for any dangers.
"Terry, come here" Shelby called out, interrupting his train of thoughts and he jerked to look toward her. "Hues?" *cough* "Yes?" Terry called out nervously and walked toward her.
"I commend you on a job well done" Shelby said and Terry was stumped. "What did I do to deserve praise?" Terry questioned her and Shelby just laughed. "Your joking right? Without your quick thinking Arielle and Jesse would have lost their lives, with your thinking you can do well on the front lines, though we can always have another defender" Shelby smiled.
Stolen story; please report.
"I think I would like to help the team as much as I can" Terry said immediately. Terry was always ashamed at how useless he was so he tried to make the most of this moment.
"Really now.... If you want to help out then you can be a front-line fighter. Tell me what you excel at"
Terry was stumped at this point.
"Um......"
"So no special skills huh, guess we're going to have to spend points on a manual" Shelby sighed.
"Any desires?"
Terry took a bit to think and then spoke out. "I would like to fly, therefore if you need me I can take to the skies and fly there"
Shelby thought for a moment. "Front-Line fighter that can fly" Shelby thought about it and then looked toward Terry, there are a few choices that you can make, but we should wait till we get back to God's Dimension. No point in counting our chickens before the eggs hatch right?" Shelby smiled and then paused.
"Arielle,Cody, off this mountain now" Shelby ordered and they took the entire group to the skies.
The cloudless sky turned dark as a torrent of rainclouds descended onto the mountain. the rain came suddenly and the ground started to collapse due to the water hammering the ground unceaselessly. In the air lighting flashed all around the group. Jesse was scared out of her wits, screaming every time Lightning flew past.
"We're safe in the sky, its Tyler and Caitlyn I'm worried about" Arielle spoke as if in a trance.
"How are we safe when all of this lightning is around us" Jesse screamed.
"Lightning, which is negatively charged, shocks you if you are touching the ground because all the energy is rushing into the ground which is positively charged. If for instance you are in the air then it would go around you or even if it hits it would travel out your feet and head to the ground. Theoretically if you jump the moment lightning strikes you, you would be left unscathed. " Shelby explained but this didn't calm Jesse down at all.
"Caitlyn 12 O'Clock" Cody exclaimed and Arielle brought the group lower to pickup the girl drenched in rain and blood.
As they were traveling, Arielle gave a cry of warning. "Tornado forming not to far from here, worst case scenario we all are sucked in and I cannot maintain bubble. Best case would be leaving Tyler and go elsewhere."
"Leave Tyler, he is resourceful on his own, besides his scales would prevent blunt damage to an extent. " Shelby did quick decision making and with Caitlyn jumping up to meet them
At that moment before Caitlyn jumped up, a bolt of lightning surged downward where Caitlyn was.
