A feeling of shock and bewilderment overtaking over him. After almost being torn into pieces from within a black hole; nothing really phased him anymore. Yet for some reason, he couldn't stop staring at her; as if seeing his friend for the first time. Really, truly seeing her. Nyt was the only person, the [i]only [/i]one who could truly understand the way he felt. Nyt was from a far away planet called [i]Austea[/i], which was nestled inside an even further away galaxy; [i]Kryton[/i]. Although she was alien, she appeared human and she was surprisingly beautiful. She had short-wavy hair, high cheek bones that supported a wide smile and eyes that held more depth than all the stars in the sky. Adrian might still be on his birth planet but he too had been ripped away from his home. Stranded, a man lost in time. This new life felt more alien to him than the one sitting right in front of him. A planet full of people and the person Adrian felt the closest to belonged to another world, light years away. She had been here the whole time, staring him in the face and he had no idea until this very moment how alike they were. Being born a mixed child, Adrian grew up not really fitting in. Sure, he made friends, flirted with girls, played sports like everybody else but for some reason he never quite felt like he fit in. His black friends teased him for being "light-skinned" and his white friends were sometimes withdrawn; not because they didn't like him but because no matter how much they were alike, he [i]looked[/i] different. He could be laughing in a crowed room and still be isolated and alone. In his senior year, meteor landed near his high school. He started having strange powers after going near the strange purple-glowing rock. His new abilities further isolated him from people now that he had a powerful secret. If it wasn't for his best friend Aja, who also received her own gift of abilities form the meteorite, he would have been completely alone with no one to share his secret with. As his powers manifested, he became the hero [i]Impulse[/i] and she; [i]Black Cat[/i]. Impulse had the ability to generate an unstoppable force in the form of a field or as a blast but it only could last for a moment and it only reached so far. Now, he could probably hold it for about three seconds. Five, if he really pushed himself. By the end of a full year's cycle the duality of his power manifested itself into a equal, yet opposite force. With this momentary 'burst' of attraction, Adrian had overexerted himself in a fight against the villain, [i]Grissom[/i]. In this fight, his attractive pulse lasted just over an instant. A blink of an eye seems irrelevant most times but when dealing with massive unstable power, even a second is an eternity. He was careless, reckless and inexperienced. With the same understanding of taming lightning, Impulse... He, had used his power just a little too long. Long enough for a singularity to open up right in front of him. Having no idea how to control it or turn it off; Adrian was consumed by his own power and cast into the black hole that he, himself created. When he came out the other side he, was half dead, was thought to be actually dead, and learned that his mother really was dead. Grissom had killed her in a plot for revenge and an attempt to lure Impulse out. Without even being in the same timeline anymore, Adrian was unable to meet his aggressors challenge or protect his mom. Impulse failed to protect the one person Adrian cared for the most in this world. When he emerged from the void and discovered the terrible news, Adrian declared Impulse dead. Impulse died back in the black hole and in the past with his mother. Adrian assumed a new identity as [i]Vega[/i] and swore to seek justice or seek revenge on Grissom and then return to the past to save his mom. Now, here... after all this time, was someone staring back at him. She was just like him and all she wanted was to go home. Adrian respected that desire and with... [color=f7941d][b]"Vega". "I've got a call for you from Esperanza Alvarado. She says it's important."[/b][/color] Adrian had so many things he wanted to tell Nyt, share with Nyt. ...but that was how Impulse acted. Impulse's recklessness was how people got hurt. He was literally too [i]impulsive.[/i] So instead, Adrian kept his lips pressed together and seemingly effortlessly; he broke his gaze. Then, quietly approaching the front of the plane and left Nyt to wonder and explore her new tech. [color=a187be][i]"What was the point in allowing yourself to get lost in moments like that?"[/i][/color] he thought to himself. He felt like a child whenever he indulged in moments such as those. He pushed those thoughts far into the back of his mind and reached for the phone. [color=f6989d][b]"Vega ...Adrian.[/b][/color] [color=a187be][b]Yes Ms. Alvarado?"[/b][/color] [color=f6989d][b]"It's Grissom... We may have found him.[/b][/color] [center][hider= Image] [img]http://wallpaperstock.net/world-in-your-eyes-wallpapers_21035_1280x800.jpg[/img] [url]http://wallpaperstock.net/world-in-your-eyes_wallpapers_21035_1280x800_1.html[/url] [/hider][/center]
