Handling Your Powers, Tuesday

[not_a_whiner]

If there was anything amiss, Kaidan'd been spending too much time off-island to notice. There was no particular urgency in his bearing as he met the students just outside the school; in fact, he was smiling. "We're going to do another obstacle course today," he said, "Except this time, we're doing it outside. The set-up is pretty simple: I want you guys to do a lap around the old part of the island as fast as you can."

"The only catch is that, where possible, you need to use your powers to get around. I don't care if that means setting up an illusion of yourself doing the track, or using an elaborate series of transformations to parkour around the buildings. Just use them."

A pause. "But don't take any stupid risks," he added. "If you're not sure you can make something, don't. And don't use offensive powers, or you'll be endangering someone else."

He tapped his omni-tool, displaying a map. "This will be your course," he said. "And to sweeten the pot, the first person here gets a free pizza next week."

Re: Obstacle Course - The Preserve

Another few huge, bounding leaps got Kathy through the North Gate and, lord help her, she was laughing. Laughing. Sure, part of her was terrified and part of her was wondering how this was even possible, but more of her was just giddily elated at this. It was like flying and gymnastics rolled into one. And it was fun.

It was only when she'd landed on the ground and noticed that the trees were approaching far faster than she'd expected that she realized that, once again, she was blazing down the marked path far, far faster than she should be.

Too bad she didn't have a pedometer. She'd really like to know just how fast--TREE!

And she was bouncing again.
