((Haha no Just my friends have gotten really active lately and it shows up! I'm sorry!))

Corvina's jaw dropped, but she couldn't help it from turning into a smile. "No way he'd say that! He loves me more! Even if he likes you a lot too..." She hit him on the shoulder. "Yeah, parkour master, nothing over a story high." she looked at him thoughtfully. "Unless it's on the high dive." She stopped with him in front of her house and remembered the last time he'd walked her home. Her cheeks grew red and she almost missed his question about her shoulder. "Huh? Oh." She rolled her shoulder. "Yeah it's a bit sore still. No miraculous healing powers for me." She smiled. That was fine with her. New powers would mean that she'd have to start all over again, trying to figure out what she could do.

((No worries! Seriously ))

"Ha, guess that means we should stop trying to face death everyday, huh?" he said softly. "Or I would have to face death for you." He suggested with a light laugh at the end. He stroking Zander underneath the chin when he noticed Corvina's face red. He looked at her before leaning down slightly, bringing his face closer to her's. He stared at her eyes, making sure that her eyes were not dilated too much. Soon he brought his hand up and touched her forehead. "You alright? Maybe you should get inside..." He said, a bit concerned now. If he got powers from that lab, who knows what a starch could have gotten her - even though it was outside of the cave.

((ok ))

Corvina blinked. "Well, I think death just follows you..." What did he mean by having to face death for her? And why did he have to say it like that! She only got more flustered when he leaned in and touched her forehead. He looked so concerned... "I-I'm fine." For once, she couldn't come up with any kind of sarcastic or smart comment. She just wanted, needed, to do something. She just didn't know what. "Um, I..." She abruptly turned to walk towards her house and only walked a few steps before she remembered something. She stopped and walked back to Rayner. "Don't worry, I didn't forget you." She said and picked up Zander from Rayner's shoulder. Erg, she was close to him again. She looked at Rayner. "Um, bye Rayner. Don't try anything stupid with your powers." She remembered that much in her mixed up state.

Rayner wasn't sure what Corvina wasn't so fluster but when she turned to walk away, he assumed she felt better. He stood up straight, his sliding into his pockets and he smiled at her. "Haha, see ya Cor, thanks for your help today...and you too! Like don't try sneaking into my apartment or anything..." he said jokingly. He began to turn around and soon enough he was away from her house and back down the street and soon enough back in his apartment.

Once he entered he found himself sitting back at his desk. His glasses came back on to his face and he stared at the computer screen. He did this for several hours, simply sitting there and reading the information he had obtained from the lab. Rayner was about to call it quits when he noticed some information that made him feel sick. He exhaled and leaned back into his computer chair. His hands came up to his face and he rubbed his eyes before looking back at the screen. He hadn't read wrong.

BML Inc. wasn't just kidnapping the locals for their experiments...but also testing their own employees. Not the scientists of course, but their other employees. Rayner continued to read the list and found the name he didn't hope to see. Corvina's mother's name. He sat there and his brain began to race. How was he going to tell Corvina? How would she react? He wasn't sure nor did he had the energy to think about it any more. With that he took himself to his bedroom and slept in his bed.

((Did you want to fast forward time instead of just RPing the next day? I'm cool w/ whatever, just start the new post in whatever day you want it to be))

It was a really nice day at the beach. She'd started to settle into her new home. At least all of her things were now unpacked. She had gone for a run, then changed into her bathing suit and laid in her beach chair, attempting to get a tan.

Kassandra really wanted to go in the water, but knew she would be lonely without someone to go in. None of her friends were here, so she just remained on the beach, reading the book she had grabbed at the airport and never got to. The girl wasn't a big reader, so this was unusual for her. Of course her father wasn't around, either, so she was incredibly bored. This book was ridiculous. Relationships don't just HAPPEN like that!

The book would soon be found on the sandy ground as the red-head just pulled out a bag of chips to eat while she browsed her snapchat photos on her phone. She took one and sent it to her friends, hoping they would respond at one point in the near future.

With the sun out and not sending the town into a fiery death, Rayner found himself riding his bike down towards the beach. It had been a while since he have gone and he felt like now was the time to go. The ocean and water has always calmed him and with the recent events of finding out his strange aquatic healing abilities as well as the experiments happening in the town's own backyard, he needed to relax himself. After all, it was summer. It was time to enjoy the sun before he goes back to school.

The beach was pretty much empty. There wasn't a whole lot of people. Rayner figured that most people would rather stay indoors and in the company of an air conditioner unit. Rayner didn't mind this. After parking his bike, he walked down towards the sand and soon enough found a spot to lay out his beach towel. He dropped his backpack down on it and then began to strip off his tank top - exposing his well toned muscular body.

After pulling out his goggles, he put them on and headed towards the sea. The waves came in and out lightly and Rayner figured why the beach was so empty. Not strong waves means no surf and no surf means no surfers. The 17-year-old then began to walk into the ocean and soon enough was swimming very strongly in it's currents.
