Kinetic energy? That was the energy that moved, right? Her science capabilities were below average, but she got the jist of it from his description. It makes things go boom, in simple, Bonny friendly terms. He seemed pretty proud of this power; enough to compare it to another very strong mutant, at least.

They were just fun and rewarding in the end. She flipped through the first handful of pages that she had completed before settling on a new puzzle. It looked fairly complex; she mentally wished herself luck before beginning to read.
