"This...." Breaker said with an angry tone, pointing to an old appartment building. "This is what we left the paradise that home was. We could have told our parents about our powers and they would have been fine with it, I mean, even Hawk's parents knew."
Hawk shook his head, "Look had we stayed longer you would have been exposed not only to your parents, but to the authorities. I overheard the neighbors talking to the cops saying that there were three gifted kids and that she was gonna get proof. We lived in a gift-free state and would have been procecuted."
"SO WHAT? Megan can make a shield...." then it hit him. "Our parents." Breaker stopped. "Still we could have done enough to prevent it and..."
Megan stopped him "Brian relax," She had her finger to his lips and the other hand on his shoulder. She kissed him lightly. "Look, the whole thing is ours Hawk arranged for it. And that means, that me and you get a whole floor above Hawk....to ourself." She winked.
Breaker went wide eyed. "Okay, home sweet home I guess." He said with a smile.
Hawk rolled his eyes. "Plus we need a place of refuge, there are other gifted here. Who knows how many are hostile?"

Ace walked into her apartment block carrying a bag of poker chips from the local casino over her shoulder. A rolex watch was on her wrist, but it was only starting to bore her now. Having no good grip on her own money, Ace was likely to take it off and leave it in the bathroom, or just drop it on the ground if she got any more sick of it. While thinking of how to just get rid of it, or maybe sell it if she felt bothered, she pushed against the wrong door thinking it was hers. Seeing other people there just made her assume they were raiding her room, "HEY- THAT'S MY SHIT! -GET OUT" She started.
She always had had great people skills.

The trio turn when they heard the shouting. "...perfect..." Breaker mumbled. "Loud neighbors, break ins. What next? Someone coming up to us to sell a fake watch?!?" Hawk shrugged. "Likely so. But we don't have the cash anyway. So eventually we will have to resort to stealing food and for bills. I don't know how easily this recession torn area will give out jobs to lowly travelers." Megan clapped at the idea. "OOOH can I be the distraction again, that was fun." Breaker growled under his breath. He wasn't the jealous type but he still hated the fact that his girlfriend would be wearing almost nothing to turn on a random guy.

(It was like, their place)
Ace sneered, "I'm Right Here." She said between her teeth in reference to the 'loud neighbors' statement. She noticed the number on the door, "Umm.... " She squinted at it for a second, "This is number 7 isn't it??" She glared at them as if daring them to say it wasn't. She felt a Li-ttle akward now...

The three all shared a puzzled looked. "Yes, this is seven...quite lucky isn't it?" Hawk said keeping a perfectly balanced tone. Megan glared at Ace, she could feel it, though she doubted either of them could. She was similar to them, but yet so much more different, and she was troubled by what that difference could be. Breaker leaned toward Hawk, and whispered, "Look and there you are...a rolex. Told you."

Ace's glare deepened, "You must be new here..." Her face changed to a large smirk and she tilted her chin up, "Your in the wrong apartment." At Vaguely hearing mention of her rolex she sighed, "This? It's fucking beautiful isn't it? Paid more than you earn for this shit." She began boasting. . . "Do you want it? I'll givya a discount" She was outright smiling now.

Breaker smirked. "What? You mean the trillions of atoms that are floating in the air right now?" The watch seemed to simply vanish. Megan smacked him in the back of the head and gave him an angry look. "Put it back to normal." "Ow..." Breaker rubbed the back of his head. The watch reappeared on Ace's wrist. "Excuse him....I'm sorry I don't think we got your name." Hawk said trying to bring the attention away from Breaker incase Ace had a gift, which Megan's sudden change in attitude seemed to signal.

Ace looked at her wrist confused, "What the fuck-- oh my name?" She smirked and a card emerged from the deck in her pocket, landing perfectly between her fingers. "Ace." Show off.

Breaker nodded,"Oh well hi Ace, well I'm King, this here is Joker and Queen." Breaker said mocking. Megan smacked him again, "Brian stop." She sighed. Hawk pointed, "I'm, Hawk, his name is Breaker and her's is Shields." Megan glared at Hawk, "Stop it, my name is Megan, stop calling me that." Breaker shrugged, "Meg, he gets it, its our professional names, get over it."

Ace rolled her eyes at the comment and crossed her arms, "Whatever. Nice to meet you all.. I suppose." She glanced away, "May I ask why you are all still in my apartment?" She couldn't help her agitation seeping into the end of the sentence.

"Now are you sure that this is the right building?" Hawk said pointing to the empty appartment, "Because this is the one we just rented. We actually rented two, one on the very top floor and this." Breaker nodded. "Hey you can always share with Hawk, he needs a girlfriend." Hawk extended his wings fasted and knocked Breaker into a wall.

Ace shook her head in slight disgust as reaching into her pocket firstly to put back the card and secondly to pull out a small slip of paper, "No- Look! See? It's a Seven... This is my apartment number!!" She childishly scowled at them as if they were conspiracing against her.

Breaker looked back up at the door. "Seventeen." Hawk and Megan turned quickly in disbelief. "Look, you can see the outline of where the one was and the nail holes. The one must have fallen off. And look." He pullled out his slip, "Seventeen. Though I still say you should give ol' Hawk here a chance." The wind picked up Breaker and threw him at the door, the door vanished before he hit it and he landed on the carpet. "HA!" He stood up and walked in the appartment again.

Ace blinked.... "Oh. Right then..." She stopped for a moment to look around. "Um... " Then she frowned, "How the HELL was I supposed to know that? God DAMNIT!" She walked out of the apartment and went the wrong direction, She walked a few steps and stood in front of the door, ". . . This was right?" She pointed in the correct direction. "Oh yeah- For your fuckin' troubles." She threw the rolex at them- and what with her practice with projectiles, probably hit breaker in the head with it, "Bye." She said moodily and walked off.

A shield appeared over Breaker. The rolex hit it and it broke. "Jeez babe, and I thought I was supposed to be the Breaker." He said. "Well fix it." Megan said. "Hey I can only return things to the state they were in, I'm not a mechanic." Breaker said as the bubble vanished. He picked up the broken rolex and it was gone. "Too bad."
Hawk stretched. "Tomorrow Breaker we are going to go steal some a truck using your powers." "For what?" Breaker asked. "We need some place to put the furniture you steal." "And how do you propose....OH!." "Woo I get to be the distraction." Megan squealed. Breaker sighed and began walking out. Megan ran after him, "Come on, Brian, lets go to our new room." "Why bother?" He sighed. Megan whispered in his ear. "WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR!?!" Breaker picked Megan up and ran for their room. The door reappeared in the door way compliments of Breaker.
Hawk chuckled. "Those two are hilarious." He opened the window, a sleeping bag was blown in by the wind, along with a strange looking lamp attached to a fan. He set down the lamp in a corner and then strong wind began to turn the fan, turning the light on. "If only this world would just switch to wind energy already."
