Chapter 203 - 203. Dangerous Luck
The three watched as Art fused metal ball after metal ball. He was sweating and started to breathe heavily but had made huge progress covering the two soles of his shoes. "You have been putting the luxury cabin to good use I see. I expect you to be able to use that in combat in the next three days." Garnet gave her encouragement which was slightly scary due to her expectation but also nice to hear.
"Let's hope this works." Art took a hesitant step and felt the griding of the old bone spike on his metal shoe bottoms. The slight cracking he heard as he did this made him want to lift his foot up and run back, however, he knew that it was now or never and stepped forward with confidence.
Before he could even think about it her stepped all the way through the previous footprints and arrived in front of Garnet. "Not bad. You made it over here without a single scratch. Pretty lucky. Now let's watch the other two handle it."
Art watched as Jane and Asher walked backwards in to their footsteps while balancing to slowly make their way back. Jane had walked the farthest and was taking the longest with more steps. Asher was the least balanced since he would normally just fall with his momentum due to the rag doll style. This was a good test for him.
Asher reached the edge where Garnet and Art were to be greeted with a handful of empty ankle and wrist weights. "I'm glad you have been trying to build strength because it really saved my butt this time." The two fist bumped while watching Jane take the last few steps over to them.
"That's done. It was not the most fun way to do it but a good learning experience." Asher was amazed as always at Jaen's positivity. He couldn't help but praise her in his mind.
"Normally when someone happens on to these abandoned fields we need to prepare for the worst. Luckily this was not the case. This was caused by a camper who tried to make some ultimate move before they even understood what their power could do. Don't go trying to copy them." Garnet's tone was harsh but good advice.
The three looked out at the retired training field with a whole new feeling for their powers. They could see that the misuse or improper training could lead to major damage and dangers. "You don't think we are capable of this right?" Art was not very excited to realize that the three of them were in class one for just this reason alone/
"From what I read in your files as class one students you are all possibly dangerous. Jane has the risk of accidentally freezing someone and causing accidents. After the sparring field, it may be for than that but we should wait until that theory is tested by scientists." Garnet brought up the information she had read and the information she had deduced herself.
"Then there is Art who apparently doesn't just control lead. And yes I looked at your training videos and it is much more powerful than you believe. I received a warning last night about the abuse of power to find you were having an emotional break through. You are lucky you did not destroy my training room." Garnet sent daggers in her glares to Art who slowed his steps as she was guiding them back to camp.
"The biggest wild card is Asher. No records on your power mean that you can have a dangerous power or a do nothing power. However, from what we have witnessed at camp your luck is very high. I would hate to see what the cause of your second power is." Garnet did not hide what she knew at all. She was always blunt and up front.
"Well, I don't know the span of my power either. I know I am lucky and sometimes more than others. It was weird the other day cause I felt really confident after I decided the fake prisoners were my enemies. But they all turned out fine." Garnet hesitated for a moment. "They all turned out fine, right?"
Asher had a feeling that Garnet had not hesitated for no reason. She was holding a firm poker face but her body grew more tense. After letting out a deep sigh Garnet looked at Asher with a meaningful glance, "Every staff member last night received some minor injury. I don't mean they were injured by campers, but they slipped, tripped on roots, one had a small branch fall on them, and another had a bird defend its' nest and scratch her. If you decided to jinx them then it may explain it, especially since they all described the injuries as their own bad luck."
Asher was slightly pale hearing this. He had meant to make the fake prisoner his temporary enemy, but he had not meant to harm them in any way. He just thought that it would make "I didn't realizeā¦: Asher was slow to follow while he thought about what his powers really did and how they could affect others.
"I will readjust our records. Your power may be the most dangerous at camp or in your school right now. I would hope you work hard to practice it. And no more labeling my staff as enemies. We are just doing our jobs." Garnet brushed the entire matter off since no one was majorly hurt. She also knew that this was a natural part of someone growing in to their powers.
"You know that after the boy who destroyed that field recovered from his injuries after causing that he went back to school and dedicated himself to improving. He had always skipped anatomy and biology classes. He didn't know what bones were made of or what they did. After he learned he became ranked in the top three hundred heroes. He is a patrol hero nowadays." Garnet wanted to cheer Asher up a little since he looked like he had just seen a ghost.
