It had been months since anyone had seen Viruz leave the lab... power surges here and there had been caused by whatever he had been doing in there. He had finally perfected his machine... a machine that accelerates mutations, empowering those with them already, and giving it to those who have the X-Gene and yet still dormant... this was the day he had decided to finally test it on an actual mutant, using himself as a live test subject... as he sat in the chair over the hulking machinery, it suddenly began to power up, a small beam emitted from it, hitting his forehead suddenly a large bolt of what looked like electricity shot down, he began to scream, the benefits would be extraordinary, but excruciatingly painful... as it finished, his mind was a little foggy. He had put too much of an output in energy for the device, causing it to alter his personality but giving a much larger punch to his powers. Unfortunately the device was the cost... it was completely fried...
He stumbled out of the lab, his mind still drawing almost completely blanks. Eventually he made it outside and eventually to the city, wandering around aimlessly... suddenly he held his head, a huge migraine struck him as nearby light-posts began to twist like they were nothing, his face showed pain... he had certainly been altered by the machine... he continued to wander the streets, eventually making it to the Institute... knowing he had seen it somewhere before, he just didn't know where from...

It was late afternoon and Kay had just finnished the last class of the day, and the week even and had wandered to the grounds. She was seated on a bench under one of the many trees that dotted the grounds. Dressed in a pair of Army Camo shorts with a white tank top, she held a sketch book in one hand and was playing with an old and battered CD player with the other. She was listeneing to some strange music that didn't sound like you could pick it up at the local Best Buy.
Her hair was down and in her usual tricolor style, black at the roots fading to chestnut brown and then down to a crimson red at the ends. She was so engrossed in her sketching that she didn't notice much around her.

As he approached the gates, another intense headache. Suddenly the sound of metal snapping and twisting was all that filled the grounds... screams of pain came from Viruz as he fell to his knees, his body was still trying to adapt for the new power flowing through his body. Suddenly he looked over at her, his vision began to get blurry... it didn't take much longer before he fell completely to the ground.

Kaylyn heard the racket over her music and looked up, confused for she wasn't sure what the noise was. She pulled her head phones off and looked around and spotted some guy standing at the gates, and then he wasn't standing any more. She blinked and put the CD player on the bench and set her sketch book aside, open, on the bench as she got up and started towards the guy on the ground.
"Hey! Are you alright?" She called out. She noticed the bars of it had been warped and twisted. Afew had even been broken.

Viruz: "Get... away... from me!"
He suddenly threw his hand up at her, unexpectedly, a giant electrical bolt was sent forth from his hand, straight at Kaylyn... he was clearly not in control...

She stopped about ten feet away from him when he yelled. She was not expecting to get yelled at. She opened her mouth to object but then he threw up his hand. She had no idea what he might be about to do so she started to move to the side, tripped over her own feet, and thankfully the actuall bolt of electrical energy missed her directly. She was laying particaly on her side, but she didn't look too good.
The back lash alone was enough to knock the wind out of her. She was trying to get air to fill her lungs again and had tears in her eyes. Her whole right side felt like it was on fire.
She had accidently shocked her self once before while cleaning the kitchen, and that's how her whole side felt. It was a numb, but prickly pain that was really intense.

He began to punch the ground, yelling out. Suddenly his muscles tightened up as a large wave of electrical energy raised off his body. From a distance it looked like a white fire, but it was pure energy. He was now floating in the air, the electricity hitting the clouds above and even causing the water particles they are made out of began to become electrical... suddenly it ceased as it adapted to his body, him falling to the ground and breathing heavily. He began to struggle to stand, his body feeling like it weighed thousands of pounds...
Viruz: "I told you to get back..."

A line of blue water and ice shot out to freeze Viruz in his tracks, but would miss its mark and accidentaly leave Kaylyn frozen from the neck down. Alice's control over her powers wasn't so hot and instead of ice rays she got a mist that eventualy fell. Atleast it was pretty.
Alice let out a squeak of surprise as she ran over. "Sorry sorry sorry!" She apologized as she came to a stop next to Kaylyn. The two had become very close in a short amount of time and here she was freezing her friend! Alice quickly remedied the situation by shooting out a freezing spray at Virus to stop him in his tracks long enough for her to make an ice mirror and jump in it.
Alice would dissapear and Alan would pop out with his sword on his back. The pyro glanced around silently to survey what had happened. "...okay so which one of you was the accident?"

Kaylyn had no idea how to react, to either Viruz's little tantrum, or to the fact that her friend had just frozen her in place.
At least the unpleasent tingling in her arm and side was gone, but it was replaced by fridged cold that wasn't much better. She sighed slightly when Alan popped out of the mirror and was his usual self.
"That would be me..." She said with a mildly forced smile.

The ice he was contained within began to spark with electricity... suddenly it began to crack as immense electrical energy was being released... suddenly it exploded outwards, the ice blowing everywhere, shattering the ice mirror... he felt threatened, his natural instinct? To defend himself... Suddenly suddenly his body began to spark with energy, he held out his hand. A round orb formed... within seconds of looking at it, a giant lightning bolt launched out at Alan, the ground below it synced from the heat generated.

Alan's sword was drawn and took the hit from the electricity as he craned his neck to look at Viruz. By the nasty look on his face Alan wasn't totaly stable nor in the mood to fight. Sand began to spill out of his pockets and swirl into the ground in two miniature drills as the golden blade of his sword began to glow with heat. "Not in the mood, so stay right there before I get pissed off."
The ground beneath Kaylyn began to shift as sand came from underneath and began to grind the ice away. As the sand moved underground it would grind against earth and make even more rather quickly.

Viruz looked at him, suddenly he held out his hand... the metal bars he had destroyed earlier straightened out, the tips becoming flat like spears, then suddenly flew at him. At the same time the underground electrical wires began to tear out the ground beneath Alan... they wrapped around his feet, the other ends by Viruz's. Suddenly he gripped them, his arms became surrounded by electricity... the electricity was visible as it passed down the wires and towards Alan.

Kay had to bite back a scream as Viruz launched a bolt of energy at Alan. She squeezed her eyes shut, but opened them again when she heard Alan speak. Then there was a very interesting thing going on. She could feel the Ice splintering as sand ground against it.
Once freed from the ice, she slipped backwards and fell to the ground and winced in pain. Now that the ice was gone, the burning sensation in her arm returned and she was mildly appaled to see that the skin on her arm was red and raw. Most likely from the back lash from the bolt Viruz had thrown at her.
She blinked back tears as she eyed Viruz warily.

The sand pyro bent backwards, almost further than it seemed possible for him to do in order to dodge the spears before a small illar of sand shot up behind him to make him stand straight again. Alan's lips curled into a wicked smile while a small laugh started eminating from his throat. A high pitched insane sort of laugh.
"Last chance to give up before I try to kill you." He said in an almost sing song sort of voice. Flames cracked along his blade and the skull shifted into an evil glare before he swung the object across the ground creating a deep gash. The fact the cables wrapped around his feet didn't bother him as sand quickly got to work grinding it away. The more the sand moved, the more the area around it would be added to it and the stronger it got.
Alan would get a taste of the shock before the cabled were cut. The boy spasmed and twitched but when it was over he still had that look on his face, his eyes seeming to dance like flames. "Ashes... ashes... they all burn down..."

Viruz just looked around on the grounds of the Institute... he could see the technology beneath the ground. Suddenly his eyes sparked with electricity and the grounds security system activated... with a little bit more manipulation they targeted Alan.
Viruz: "You calm down right now... or else you'll have no chance for survival... I did not mean to hurt her, she didn't stay back... and then you attack me!"
