However, Avie was rather anxious about her only known power.
"I can't go around with ice-cold breath!" she complained.
"Relax. It's probably a bit like my force fields." Isaac said. "You have to take it off automatic."
"Automatic?" Avie repeated.
"Yeah. Try putting it on manual control." Isaac grinned. "What I do, is picture a switch in my mind and flicking it."
She gave him a smile, thought for a moment, then breathed out slowly again.
"It worked!" She said happily.
"Great."
"Y'know, this is so not fair. Ike has four powers, and you two have three, but Avie and I only have one." Jess complained.
"Well, no, you only have one that we know of." Zac pointed out. "I know when I triggered Ike and Tay for the first time, it took awhile before all the powers we know of, umm, became apparent."
He paused.
"Well, actually, with Ike and Telekinesis, that came from conducting an experiment - that's how we found out. Umm, it's a long story about how we were inspired to try it out, but still…" he gave a small smile. "And I believe it took him a couple of days before he could figure out he could shape shift, even though he knew he could go liquid. So don't worry about it."
"Just remember the number one rule for using your powers: Concentrate on the solution, not the problem." Taylor added.
"You know, everyone says that." Jess replied.
"Well, obviously it works!"
**********
That night, Jess and Avie headed off to bed.
"Can you turn the light off now?" Jess yawned, lying on her side and looking at her sister.
"Yeah, sure."
Avie started to get up, when the light went out.
"How'd you do that?" Jess asked.
"I, I, I don't know…" Avie replied with a yawn. "But I'm not gonna think about it now. I'll bring it up to the guys in the morning."
Sometime in the middle of the night, Jess sat up in her bed, sweating madly. He head was being flooded again, but not with emotions. She put her hands to her head and started shaking again.
"Get out of my head." she whimpered. "Oh man, get out, get out!"
