Karin's cheeks blushed as red as her eyes when he heard the young man acknowledge her. Her fingers tangled together nervously as she finally found her voice again, but it was timid and quiet. "I'm sorry, my name is Karin McFae, I just transferred here two months ago. Uh, what's your name?"

Gabriel looked up for a moment, thinking. He returned his gaze to her. "That's a nice name...you can call me Gabriel."

"Gabriel..." Karin repeated in her own whisper to the wind, letting the name slide smoothly off her lips. Then her eyes flew open and she took a step forward, "I want to thank you about earlier, for catching me...you didn't have to..."

"You would have busted you're head open," He shrugging. "No need to thank me. Now come here and sit down." He said, patting the seat next to him. "You look tense, relax a bit."

Karin blushed more as she moved toward the couch and gingerly sat down on the other end, opposite of Gabriel. "A-are you new here too?" The girl in order to hide her blush pulled a small plush cushion, and gathered it in her arms and tucked it under her chin.

Karin blushed even more and hid her face into her pillow, embarassed. "The professor says I have an advantage underwater, breathing and swimming, though I don't believe him." Karin blushed and quickly tried to change the subject. "What kind of powers do you have?"

"I can create plasma. Stuff sorta like a lightsaber?" He replied, holding out his hand. A bright purple beam shot up from his palm. " I can make it change shape too..." He said, as the small beam morphed into a sphere. "I can almost cut through anything." He said, extinguishing the beam.

Karin looked up, her red eyes were glowing as the plasma's light reflected in her eyes. She was mesmerized by it. "That's so cool!" She breathed excitedly. Then she looked down again, embarassed, "I wish I had that kind of power; I hate the water."

"Or is it because you don't know how to swim?" Gabriel said, creating some smaller plasma balls and making them hover over his hand. "I can teach you sometime, if you want..."

Karin was in the middle of trying to reach for the spheres, wanting to hold it in her hands. However, she gasped and blushed as she heard Gabriel mention about teaching her to swim.
"No, You really don't have to! I am already indebted to you for helping me earlier!"

"You're not indebted to me. It was no problem really. Besides, swimming is something that'll help you one day." He said, making the orbs fly a bit higher, in a random pattern.

Karin shut her mouth she didn't want to make him angry by arguing with him. She remembered the last time she tried to talkbalk to her father. Her left hand rubbed gently at her forearm, covered by her oversized black turtleneck sweater. Soon she became infatuated again with trying to catch one of the spheres, unfortunately she had to keep pushing up her sleeves so her new friend wouldn't see the bruises.

"Be careful," Gabe warned. "You don't want to touch these, at least if you don't want to burn a hole through your hand." He said, making the orbs change colors.

But it was too late, as Karin's hand reached up, her fingers stretched, she made contact and gave a small yelp in pain as she quickly retracted her hand, and cradled it against her chest. Luckily the orb only brushed lightly against the back of her hand, before floating higher and out of her reach.
