Nathan Maddox
___________________________________________________

Though he had begun to grasp most of his self control by this point, Nathan hadn’t expected what happened during this little gathering he had created by mistake. The first thing to note was how the young teen Casper, who was in appearance almost still a boy, had coldly just walked away after making sure that Nathan was going to be okay. That was strange enough as it is, but he could handle it. Then Ali spoke to him, obviously trying to sooth him and get his mind off of the negativity that had just happened. Her words actually completed their mission to a small extent and just seeing a friendly face seemed to help him tremendously more than he could have guessed. The redhead asked him about his powers after caringly scolding him for jumping in front of the blast so recklessly. She seemed to care even though she didn’t know him...that was a new experience for him, and something that truly meant more than he could ever relay. As he was preparing an answer for her regarding her question on his abilities the rhyming pattern of strangeness struck again. The stranger among them, the beautiful brunette that had come to his aid despite having never met him, stepped forward and reached out, advancing on him seemingly in an attempt to touch his face. With caution and curiosity, he let her.

As her fingers touched his cheek he felt it, her abilities activate. In an instant she was inside his head, not in his thoughts but in his emotions. He sensed her feeling his anger as though it was her own and he could tell that she was getting the full blast of anxiety, sadness, resentment, hatred, darkness, and rage that blew about the storms in his head. Thank god she couldn’t see his memories. He felt violated at first, but after only a few seconds he began to feel understood to a degree that he had never been before. She backed away from him quickly, her eyes still closed.

“I...I have to go….” She spoke, never looking at either of the remaining participants of this event and suddenly turned to leave. Nathan watched in shock and quiet as she walked away. There was a rather long, awkward moment of silence before he turned back towards Ali, remembering her question. He looked on at her with a look that explained all too well that he didn’t know what the hell was going on, but after shaking his head a bit in acceptance he replied to her.

“Umm...Sorry about that I guess. I uh...Yeah my powers let me absorb different types of energy. I’m not exactly sure about the extent of it, but that’s pretty much what I am.” He forced himself to smile, which honestly felt good in this situation given the madness that had just occurred. “I’m really sorry that I scared you...It wasn’t my intention at all. I’m an idiot. I didn’t even think about it being some kind of test I just did the only thing to think of to save you...and everyone else. I didn’t know what else to do. All I’m good at is taking a hit I guess.” He chuckled nervously a bit after the last part of his reply before adopting a more serious expression. “Thanks, by the way, for uh...coming after me. I just needed a minute to breath. I’m sorry for worrying you all. It means a lot though, really. I’m not used to people caring like that.”
