After about ten minutes or so of letting herself get drenched with cold water Nicole turned the showers taps off and stepped out onto the tiled bathroom floor. She sighed, "that's better..." Before flicking off her shoes and tossing them into the nearby corner. Although she could still felt a little faded from the hotbox she was definitely feeling much better than before. More grounded. Stable. Real. Nicole's eyes trailed towards the bathroom door whilst she perked her ears up to see if she could hear anything. To her slight astonishment it was quiet which appeared to make her fell much more better and confident with the fact that she was just tripping like a maniac. It almost seemed humours to her now. How could she be so stupid to think her roommate could manipulate fire? She shook her head at herself before stripping down and wrapping herself up in a towel as she proceeded back towards the sink. As soon as her hands clamped down on the rim of the sink Nicole's eyes immediately locked themselves on her own reflection. Even though she wasn't really one of those plastic girls who had to constantly check their reflection to make sure they were looking "hot" she couldn't help but look at the damage from last night, the hotbox and the trip. [i]Bloodshot eyes, thick dark rims below eyes, smeared lipstick, knotted hair...[/i]. Whilst she proceed to assess herself something strange occurred. Both her hands seemed to slowly vanish. Within seconds her fingers and palms had completely disappeared. Without her knowledge Nicole had somehow managed to to bend the wavelengths of light around her hands causing them to become invisible to the naked eye. Oblivious to her actions Nicole instinctively lifts her right hand up to her cheek to wipe away some mascara but to her shock there was no hand. Well no reflection that is her hand was still there attached to her wrist. She can even feel her fingers touching her skin but to her utter horror she can't see her right hand. Nicole let out a rather high pitch scream before covering her mouth with her two invisible hands. Her eyes widened as she still saw her lips even though her hands were clearly covering her mouth. [i]What the fuck?[/I] Nicole frantically dropped her arms and started to shake them vigorously in an attempt to get her hands to reappear. She looked like a headless chicken desperately dashing around the place. Nicole couldn't help but repeatedly curse underneath her breath. For a woman she had quite a potty mouth on her. Even though before she believed she was tripping when Astrid was 'playing' with the fire for some reason now her tripping seemed ridiculously. She was undoubted convinced this was real and from some strange reason she thought shaking her arms about the place would make them reappear. Knowing that she knew it was real you would think she would calm herself down and thinking about how this actually happened. But unfortunately it looked like the adderall had worn off and Nicole was more focused on panicking than using her head. After a short while of acting like spastic she finally stopped realising the shaking wasn't helping. She sighed in defeated. [i]Don't recall applying to be on the tv show the Heroes.[/i] It was weird how she was in such a hysterics earlier although the strangeness was occurring to someone else. Yet now (although she did panic slightly) she felt awfully calm almost like this was normal even though this unrealistic thing was happening to her. Maybe the sudden mood swings and change of heart had something to do with the fact she barely had an hours sleep in the last 24 hours. Knowing that she had to be back at the office soon she decide to forget about getting her hands visible after all she could still use them and focus on covering them up as in making them visible because although she might currently be okay with having no hands other people might not be. [i]Gloves.[/i] Her face lit up as she crossed her arms over her chest making sure to hide her non-existing hands under her arms. It should be easy to hide something that is invisible however there is still the problem of making it look realistic. She had to position herself in such away that if her hands were visible they couldn't be seen which proved much for difficult than she expected. Once she was satisfied she swiftly exited to the bathroom and rushed towards her bedroom. Not once did she look up or around. Nicole was so focused on staying hidden that she didn't realise that the rest of her body began to slowly vanish. She dived into her bedroom and immediately locked the door behind her. "Now where are those gloves.." She mumbled to herself as she proceed to her wardrobe but on her way there she found her gaze travelling towards her dresser mirror. Nicole instantly stopped still right in front of her mirror as she stared eyes wide, mouth open at the bank mirror. Well technically it wasn't blank she could see her entire room except for one thing, herself. She couldn't see herself. "Holy shit!"
