What The Luck!?

"I swear if you try and make armor out of metal again!" Art had tried this once and Asher had found him with a piece of metal half wrapped around his hand. Unfortunately for Art, he had ended up slightly stuck without being able to muster the mental strength to move the metal again. It was too mentally taxing for him to be able to manipulate pieces of metal he attached to his body. 

"Fine fine. But mark my words. One day I will be able to do whatever I want with metal. That day I will be able to fly!" Art raised his voice and made a flying poise similar to most people with the super power to fly. Sammy couldn't help but fall in to a fit of giggling after looking at him. 

"And if you ever make that pose when you fly, you are disowned from the family." Louis pointed at Art and shook his head. He couldn't survive the embarrassment that would come with the pose Art had struck. 

After wiping a few tears from the corners of her eyes, Sammy responded, "I won't need to. I want to try and study tornadoes and how the wind rotates. I can't really control wind that well, but I think my idea of flying has been wrong. I can use it as a burst for speed. I can't use it in other ways. It's the same with Lois. He can use it for a burst of speed or a radical attack but not for constant use." The pair were in the same boat when it came to super power development. 

"Then we are working on super power problems today. It's official. We will work on getting everyones' super powers more developed today. It will also help us all get a better handle on how we all use our super powers and potentially some combinations." Jane was sold on the idea before she had even decided on it for the group. She knew that there were hidden combinations that the group might be able to use for powerful attacks. Not to mention ways of transportation to get to a danger faster and save someone. 

"It sounds like we will need to go for a long job. I have the perfect place." Laura had often run around exploring by herself due to her super power. She had a lot more time than everyone else. Since her body moved faster than everyone elses' she didn't require the same time to sleep. Instead, she would sleep a few hours twice a day and be able to process enough nutrients to keep her body moving. If she really wanted she could go for a decent amount of time without sleeping at all now.

Since Laura was leading the group, she slowed herself down. They were moving toward the outskirts of the city where a few abandoned recreational areas were. They had simply been replaced with blogger and better as the years went on and were not often empty. The area was not poor in any means but the field that Laura had brought them to was definitely in need of some repairs. 

  "I think that dug out has seen better days." The look Art had on his face was one that any child who had learned to play baseball would feel. He had a silent mourning for the fallen in roof of the dug out. 

"But it is the perfect [lace to train our super powers, right? I told you all." Laura was very proud she had found this place on one of her runs. Between her and Jane finding good places to train, the group would soon have a page full of different options every day. 

"This will be perfect, but first I think we should talk about the obvious." Louis took a seat n the ground. He knew that his super power would be the be a popular combination and he would need to talk them all out properly. 

"I guess we should just be straightforward then. I control metal and Louis lightning. It's an easy combination for me to use with Louis. I send out some metal balls at the enemy and Louis shoots lighting which conducts through metal more easily. " This was both good and bad. It meant that the attacks would be a little easier to aim. However, it meant that the attacks would be much more predictable if their opponent knew Art and Louis's super powers. 

"Mine doesn't really pair with anyone. In just have my body and freezing people in to place." Jane was wracking her brain for a solution. The closest she got was, "I think Art can use the metal to become cuffs or other restraints while I freeze them in place. Louis could also use himself as a stun gun while I have them frozen in place." 

"Those are perfect ways to use your super powers with his. You can use yours with anyone. If Sammy pushes me faster with a burst of wind and you freeze someone in place with a look, I can retain them with my strength." Jackson really liked the sound of an easy victory. He wanted to be able to safely take down a villain and bring them to justice without any injuries. 

"Hm, I could break up teamwork with my super power. I could even take out their hearing completely by making some sounds very loud." Cara was slowly building his combination. "And with Jane taking away their movement and me their sound, then we have a very easy to beat an opponent. Plus, we just need to add Asher and he will bring us successful luck." The group knew that with Asher as part of their plans their luck skyrocketed. 

"If I join in we will have success but for training I should be left out. It is better to work on combinations to get results without luck and hard work alone. But I do want Jackson and Sammy to be able to throw and push me forward with wind. I feel like I will be lucky enough to get in to a situation that can save someone without getting hurt." Asher wanted to make sure that they were able to push someone far and fast enough to get where they needed. 

"Um, Just an idea, but shouldn't we all learn to use metal restraints? Art can bend metal in to pretty much any restraint. But if he can't then we will need to do it ourselves. Maybe we should even do some weapons training. He could be able to make weapons for us in a rough situation. My speed with anything that Art bends metal in to will surely help." The combinations were flowing. They all had a very imaginative morning and used their phones to record some of the best combinations. 

The user of Art and Louis's super powers took a large chunk of the ideas. This was mostly because they could be used to restrain and incapacitate an opponent easily. Jackson and Jane had taken on a more defensive and supportive role since they had tougher bodies than the others. Cara and Sammy were more supportive than anything. Cara has the ability to fight so she was ahead of Sammy, but Sammy was able to support everyone at different times by using the wind to push them faster. 

Laura was able to act as a front line glass cannon attacker. Her speed was enough t catch everyone off guard and retrain them. But she was not the strongest in the group and would need time to hopefully develop more focus. 

Asher on the other hand, was also able to fight in the front. He could turn a situation on its head since his luck was unpredictable. There was also the fact that he could give his enemies a jinx. The bad luck would naturally skew the fight in the group's favor. 

"Now we should try to practice a little. I want to see what Art can do with metal and the challenge to make hand cuffs. They just need to lock without a key since you can undo them. The plot twist is they need to fit my wrists and Sammy's smaller wrists." Jane took the lead and thrust her phone in to Art's face with a display og hand cuff parts and assembly. He stood up and moved toward the ruined dig out. 

Asher jogged to help Art pull a piece of metal from the remains of the old dug out roof. Everyone was going to watch the creation of the hand cuffs. This was the new and best way for them to understand how fast Art would be able to pull this off. "I found a decent piece of old aluminum. This won't be super strong but I think it proves that I need to be able to bring metal with me.. What if the villain is strong enough to break them?" At made a good point but Asher knew it was a ploy to be able to make himself armor again.
