[quote=KatherinWinter] Griffin froze. For a moment it was like no one was home. Even his eyes were empty. Inside Zack and Arnold tackled Griffin. It took both of them to drag Griffin to the lockdown area. Arnold leaned against the door. Arnold ordered. Zack nodded as he rushed to the front of their minds. In a soft tone Zack asked. "How do your abilities effect people? We've never had this problem with Kalinda and she works with emotions. Why is your ability different?" [/quote] Devika stared, as the twin streams of emotions she felt coming from Griffin/Zack/whoever suddenly cut off. Completely. She'd never felt someone shut down so effectively. It was like his mind had gone dead. But then he was back- and different again. "Wh-" She backed up a bit, even though he wasn't angry anymore. "I just... send out waves of emotion. I don't know why it's different, it just is! Why're [i]you[/i] different, is the better question! You're like two in one, I've never met a person able to cut their emotions so fine." She caught Flood's genial handshake out of the corner of her eye, and pushed his hand away. "Not now." Unfortunately, she shouldn't have touched him at all- she was hit from all sides with emotional wildness, on a level she'd never felt before. Her mind reacted to defend herself, and she just dropped to the ground, blank eyed, but awake. Physically, anyway.
