."John puts the weight down after ten more reps and says, "Then let's try it. How much do you want to start with?"

Kalinda stared at him for a moment, as if trying to figure out if it was a joke or not. "Oh, gods, you're serious. The heaviest thing I've lifted, without being charged up on emotions, is my mother" She said. "I was careful, after my abilities manifested, to stay away from people. trying to lift a car in the street might have gotten me in trouble. The more emotional I am, the stronger my telekinetic abilities are, which doesn't help for finding out how strong they are initial" 

She took her gloves off, which she had been wearing all the time the last day, and thought briefly. She approached John and the Weight he had been lifting. "May as well start with heavy, then work up or down" 

Without the slightest idea if she could do it or not, she raised both hands gently into the air. She didn't need to use her hands, but it was a good focusing tool. The weight slowly rose. Kalinda grimaced, keeping her hands steady, even if the rest of her was shaking with the exertion of lifting it, she stumbled slightly. She didn't lift it high, setting it back down in seconds, and let out a breath, not realising she had held it. 

She sat down on the floor, inhaling slowly. "Hell, you're frigging crazy to lift that much" Her abilities would grow as she did, she knew that. One day, she'd be able to lift that with ease, she knew.
