What The Luck!? Chapter 276

"Alright, everyone has their academic studying set up and their training set up for the week?" Cara had taken the time to set everyones' training schedules up for the week. They were planning on doing the same group training session again next weekend. Their goals were al to improve before then and be able to show off what they could do.
"We've got it all set up. I will try and do some of the extra balance exercises too." Jackson had gained a lot of confidence through the last hour of training and was much more dedicated to learning how his body worked. Instead of a mysterious annoyance, he was now looking at the situation like he was discovering himself all over again.
"You guys don't even know. I had a major breakthrough today. I bet next week I will be flying around better than a bird." Unfortunately, Sammy had the same boost in confidence, but she was a little more forward with it prompting Louis to roll his eyes.
"Oh yeah, and I will be creating thunderstorms and powering the entire city with my lightning." His sarcastic tone was enough to earn not one but two punches to the arm from Sammy. She knew all too well that he had used a lot of his lightning and would need a substantial amount of time to generate any more.
"No one made as much progress as me. I saw even lightning in slow motion." Laura didn't miss the chance to join in to some of the fun teasing Louis and Sammy.
"That's just because I was slowing it down so it was easier for you. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference." Louis thought turning away would hide his smirk even though he was still wearing most of the runner bandages to protect against lighting escaping which hid his face.
"Oh yeah?" Laura used her speed to keep getting in Louis's face over and over to tease him. Louise tried to turn away but continuously found Laura in front of him. He was much too slow to escape her and this made the group laugh at his obvious teasing fail.
"Pfft, whatever, I still learned to control lightning a lot better with my body. So I am way ahead." Louis wasn't taking it as a loss and was secretly red faced from the attention he was getting from Laura.

"Jane, are you sure you can run back? I know Asher and Art are staying with you all the way to your house but I can stay too if you want." Cara was a little on edge since Jane was more pale since she had reverted back after her second shift.
"I think I am fine. Asher will need to carry me if things get tough but I'm fine with that. He can use the extra training. Plus, I have prepared for this properly and the side effects aren't too bad today." Jane definitely felt light headed but it wasn't enough to top her. She was feeling better after eating the snacks and hydrating. It was the forethought to bring these that made her in a much better condition.
"By the way, Art, thank you for the snacks." She couldn't just ignore that they were so helpful and thanked him which surprised everyone since he hadn't really thought Art had prepared it all and that it was all three of them that had.
"Alight alright, if we are going to get so hung up on this then we will need to book the gym for another hour next time." Art pushed the attention away since it was embarrassing but did bring up a good point.
"Art's right, we are over our time and need to head out so the school employees can clean it." The group said their goodbyes and split up on their own jogs toward their homes. Cara was too fast and disappeared from Art, Asher, and Janes' view in just a minute.
"I swear, she is way too fast compared to everyone else." Asher looked ahead while comparing his sisters' insane pace and their slow jog.
"She has trained for way longer already. She tries to make up for the fact that she doesn't have a physical super power. You guys know that she might have an A rank super power, but it is a communication based super power. Normally she won't be considered for missions that require physical points." Art had researched some of the law enforcement requirements and found that super powers like Cara's would normally end up in an office or away from dangers.
"But she has shown over and over that she can defend and attack with sound. How could she end up not on the front lines?" Jane was trying to maintain the pace but chose to slow down to pose her question.

"It's just the way things work. That's why my family usually ends up in science work with metal controlling super powers. Asher would most likely end up in some unique team that deals with threat analysis because he can be lucky to find solutions." Art had looked in to this a lot and found that there were plenty of cases of this kind of stuff happening. "You would be the only one to actually go in the field since you have a physical super power."
Jane connected the dots, "This is why you want to be a super hero instead. They can do all of what law enforcement does and be in the action. You want to take hold of what you do." This was too plain to see now. It was the bog reason for Art to truly pursue being a super hero.
" Well, it's good to know that we will have more control over our lives. That's what I want too. I don't want to be some puppet on a string. No pun intended with my rag doll style." Asher thought that it was a great idea. Law enforcement would only limit them but being a hero would give them the proper connections to do and be more.
"Guys, I agree...but I need to stop." Jane started to collapse but was caught on either side by Art and Asher. …" Thanks"
"We figured you wouldn't make it back. Whenever you get too tired you don't walk or run straight." Asher explained this with a strong mhm from Art. The two walked with her arms around their shoulders back to her house where they found her mother in the front small flower bed weeding.
"I swear, she does this all the time now. She is pushing herself too hard. I expect you two to yell at her the next time she gets out of her limits." She was understandably furious as she helped Jane to her room.
"Her mothers' right, Jane does push herself a lot." Art said this as they watched the front door to Janes' house close. The two accepted that they wouldn't be seeing her again until school and that she would be resting. Asher sent a quick message to Jane reminding her to take the vitamin pack so she could recover better and that he hoped she would feel better.
"I know, we will need to talk to her. I think we all need to look at how we have been balancing lately. Set aside some time to rest and destress properly." Asher was now a little concerned about his group and began to make plans in his mind on how he could get everyone some fun relaxation in the future.
"You know, we do have that three day weekend coming up. We could all take an extra day to go and check out the new water park and theme park that opened up the next town over?" Art had wanted a break too. Asher wasn't sure if this was because he wanted to avoid his math home work or if it was because Art really was tired.
"We can ask my mom and dad about it. I have some savings and I wouldn't mind treating everyone." Asher thought as the groups' main leader he should shoulder this burden.
"Bro, it's free admission since it just opened. The food and games still cost money but rides and water park are free for the first week. We can just go and have fun. I don't need to play games." Art had already read the information on the web site as he told Asher about ut.
"Then send the link to the group chat. We will plan it out now." Asher thought this was the perfect situation and watched as everyone slowly replied with excitement. "I haven't been to an amusement park or water park since…" Asher got stuck for a moment. Searching his two memories he realized, "I have never been to one. It never interested Cara or me. This will be the first time."
"Bro! Seriously?! We have to go now. I am telling everyone!" Art jumped in to the group chat with fury, he refused to let Asher and Cara go their lives without visiting a water park or an amusement park.

Two And A Half Deadmen
Silver-Spruce is a very strange and very haunted town. Ghosts inhabit its buildings and walk its streets. Some of them friendly and sane. Some of them not so much. Alder helps ghosts. Helps them fulfill their last requests so they can move on to whatever comes next. Sometimes the ghosts aren't so friendly and have to be moved on by force. Alder does that as well. And he's gotten rather good at it too. After a particularly rough exorcism, he finds himself following a strange ghost to a local tourist attraction. And while Alder never means to find himself caught up in chaos, monsters, magic, and mayhem always seem to have a way of finding him. You want more specifics for what you're reading? Here you go: This is Urban-fantasy but a little bit of a different spin. Often the protagonists in such stories tend to be the bigger fish in their world, or at least far from small fry. Be they legendary boogie men or badass wizards (which is in no way a bad thing, I love a lot of those stories.) But I thought it would be fun to have a protagonist who's far closer to the bottom end of the scale. He has some magic, and it's potent in its own way. But he isn't the big dog or a fighting machine. Outside of his bubble of influence, our protagonist is essentially a normal human as far as powers are concerned. And while you should be warned that this story will get dark in some places it's (hopefully) balanced out by humor and the lighter stuff. I'm not sure how to end this synopsis section so I'll just say bye. Bye!
