"Heh heh..." Kylan nervously scratched the back of his head. "I'm not really sure what caused the lightning. My feelings are all jumbled up, all the time. I can never tell what causes what. Kinda bad, but still..." Kylan paused, thinking. "I'm guessing it was a random flash of anger. I was thinking of what my old man would've said to me if he knew that I actually got a date to a dance... Made me angry..." He muttered the last part, lowering his hand and watching Amberly for her reaction to his confession.

Amberly brought her hand up to her mouth letting her finger hold over her lips as she released a smile to his words. "Well, a flash of anger - flash of lightning. It makes since!" Her eye's looked at him with a sense of wonder. "Well... it shouldn't bother you, I mean - I did say yes. It's not like I was forced to go with you?" She couldn't understand what made him angry about his father. Maybe his father is... just a little bit wierd? She kept her finger on her lips and it casually made it's way to her cheek. "Your father wouldn't want you to go to a dance with someone?" Her voice asked with confusion and wonder.

"No..." Kylan paused, trying to find the right words. "No, he would be suprised. He would think I forced you to go or something, my old man, he didn't like me at all. Thought of me as a failure, he did." Kylan nodded, a slight wind beginning to pick up from the memories. "It's hard to explain. My father and I didn't get along well. We got into a huge fight right before I got here. See, i'm not from around here. Well, when we were fighting, he could summon storms too, so... It didn't turn out nicely like in fairy tales. Let's just leave it at that." Kylan took his hands out of his pockets and crossed his arms, the wind blowing past him and Amberly, making his dog chain float as if with a mind of its own.

"Surprised..." She whispered to herself slightly, she couldn't beleive that his father would just be 'surprised'. A guiltly concious came over her as he spoke about his father. She never really had a problem with her folks, and she couldn't imagine what it would be like to have a father like that. Reasurringly she placed a hand on his shoulder for a moment. "I'm sorry about that, but you can honestly tell him now that you got a date because you were being you, because someone actually..." She hesitated on the last part of that. SHe wasn't sure if what she would say, he'd take it the wrong way or the right way. I don't get it. I just met him, but it seems like we're already friends. I can't imagine what it would be like had I not met him. He seems so familiar to me already... "So your father was a gifted to?" She had never heard of someone's parent being a gifted as well, unless he was talkiong aobut summoning the storms a different way. SHe watched the dog chain float in the wind and she smiled slightly as she reached for her hair to keep the wind from getting a hold of it. "Well, Kylan. Where would you like to go? Anywhere imparticular?" She put her hand to her chin. She didn't know what to say to him to make him feel better from what he just said but she got an idea of what to do. "you know, I'm kinda hungry. Are you?"

Kylan smiled sadly at the touch of her hand on his shoulder, even if it was only for a moment. "No..." He whispered. "There's no way i'd be able to tell him. Anything. My old man... Is no longer around. Dead." He looked away from Amberly and narrowed his eyes. Why was he talking to her so freely? He'd never told anyone about the state of his father. Never... "Starving." He said simply, and began to walk towards the school, before stopping and turning back to Amberly and offering his hand to her.

Amberly cursed herself slightly bringing up his father after the confession of his status. She had no idea. She let a shiver run down her back as she tried to think of a way out of the coversation, but just decided that silence was probably best. Her eye's studied his form waiting for him to walk away from her or the clouds to begin to increase in number, but surprisingly it had no effect on him. She still felt bad until she noticed his hand being held out to her. She couldn't help but let the smile return to her face, yet almost hidden as she tried not to show it. Her hand reached into his letting her chilled fingers wrap around his warm flesh. Perfect.... "What do you feel like eating?"

Kylan smiled. "Hm... I want two double cheesburgers, a large fry, and a milkshake. Maybe even a salad on the side." He said, half joking, half serious. He just realized how hungry he was. He watched with curiousity as Amberly attempted to hide her smile. Glancing up at the sky, he easily understood why no storm had occured at the confession of his father. He was at ease. Who knew talking to someone about his father would be so easy and not spark some inner fire that would make Kylan cause a huge storm? This girl was definently different from other girls... Feeling Amberly's chilled fingers, Kylan smiled and glanced up at the sky. The temperature rose rapidly to a comfortable, warm kind of temperature. "Something new i've been developing lately..." He explained. "Controlling the temperature, that is. Not the same as creating storms. Cool, huh? Which reminds me. You never told me what your power was." Kylan asked curiously.

"Wow... I'm impressed. All that and you still manage to want something healthy!" A giggle erupted from her lips as she let her head turn to the side and then back at him. Their hands still together, she could feel a moment of happiness she never thought she would feel. Instantly she felt the air around her warm up and with a shake of her head, her eye's locked on him. "Well, that's awsome. I am impressed yet again with you!" Amberly told him instantly feeling her fingers warm up, thanks to the weather and his hand. "My powers? Why do you want to know about my lame power?" Realizing that she had said nothing about her powers made her feel sorta bad. He's told her alot already and the only thing he knew about her was her name. "Well, if you must know, it's nothing special and i rarely get to use them, but I can heal.. well I can heal others. I can't heal myself."

Kylan raised his eyebrows slightly. "Oh yea? That's not lame! I think it's cool. It's so much more helpful than storms are." He added, nodding his head a couple times. "I'm impressed. What about scars? Can you get rid of scars or just open wounds?" He asked curiously, invluntarily touching his right underarm, where a long, thin, white scar was located from his shoulder to the tip of his middle finger. "Either way, I think healing is a cool power." He said, shrugging.

Amberly shook her head slightly to his questions. Her healing ability only seemed to allow her to heal wounds that were current. She wished she was able to. She opened her mouth to tell him but wasn't able to make a sound until she was determinded. "My ability to heal doesn't heal something that has already been healed... I'm sorry. I wish that I could, but it seems like my powers don't work that way, why?" She asked him curious as to why he would ask about scars. To her a scar is a mark of a battle that was either won or lost. Most of the time, a scar meant a win against an obstacle, but it also had it's win as well. A mark that never goes away. "Well, I'm glad that you like my power, but I never get to use it, but then again, I think that's a good thing?!"

"Oh. No reason, just out off curiosity." He said, moving his right arm so she wouldn't be able to see the scar. "I guess a scar would be considered already healed... Just a pain for people to ask questions about." He added under his breath. Looking up at the sky, startled, he realized the temperature was continuing to rise. "Oops." He said quickly, immediantly summoning a light, refreshing breeze. Stopping, he focused on making the temperature just a little lower. Succeeding, barely, he sighed and began to walk again. "You see? I'm still developing this power..."

Amberly nodded with a sense of curiosity cleared and nothing more could be said of it. "Well, it never hurts to ask you know... I guess it's how the saying goes. If you never ask, you'll never know." She told him as she seemed to have recited it out of a book. Her hand still was curled up in his and as she thought about it more, she moved her hand out of his slowly, but she didn't want to startle him by just letting go suddenly. She turned around to him and made him stop. "If you could do that with your powers, I wonder... is it possible for you to create like... snow too? I mean, I was just wondering, I don't want like a snow storm now, but?" She asked him and took her own advise to ask him, however her eye's glanced at the storm as the darkened clouds had finally reached the school.

Kylan began to slow as he felt Amberly take her hand from his. Now stopping with her in front of him, he shrugged. "It's awkward to talk about." He said simply. At her last question, he looked up at the sky, hinting that he was gonna alter the weather in a way. Soft, grayish clouds began to form above them, making the storm clouds disappear. Kylan blinked as snow flakes began to fall steadily, peacefully. The temperature had decreased dramatically to support the snow, and now Kylan shivered lightly. "Tell me if you're cold." He said quietly, watching with amusement as stunned students pressed their faces against the windows, watching the newly formed snow. Although the snow didn't stick to the ground, it was peaceful, the flakes falling slowly around them and the school.

Amberly watched his features softly, wondering if he would be able to create the snow. If it was just weather, than he might not be able to with the heat, but he was granted the ability to alter the temperature as it seemed that you couldn't have snow without it. "That's so...oo Awsome...!" She said with a bit of a shiver in her voice. She really hadn't remembered how cold it would have been to create the snow but she never expected his to really create it. Amberly noticed what Kylan did at the same time with the students faces pasted to the windows. She moved a few feet away from him as she let her arms come out from her body and took in the snowflakes that now seemed to flow around her. Turning back to him, she gave him a smile. "perr..rrfect! Now I'm ... chi...lled!" She said going back to his side.

"Sorry." Kylan said, quickly making the snow stop and the sun come back to life from behind the disappearing clouds. Stretching his arms behind him, he watched Amberly out of the corner of his eye. "So..." He began, folding his arms behind his head and sighing. "What now?" He asked, looking away from the curious students and up at the sky.
