Wish followed Channel in, gapsing. When she reached the room, she knocked on the closed door. "Channel?" She called, concerned for her friend.

She screamed again. "Ai, it hurts, it hurts. Make it go away!"

Wish closed her eyes tight, murmuring something under her breath. The pain slowly eased away. Wish muttered something else, and it vanished completely.
Ther problem was, since Wish could do many other things than other mutants, and her abilities were limitless, her energy was drained quicker. She fell to the ground and fainted dead away, exhausted.

Cradling her head in her hands, she screamed one last time as the pain intensified and then it vanished. Blinking, she looked around cautiously but saw no one. Pushing herself off the bed, she frowned and looked in the mirror. She was too pale and she sighed as she stared at herself.
Looking around, she opened the door and nearly fell over Wish's body. Kneeling, she crouched down besides the girl and checked for a pulse. Thankfully, her gloves were on so she would not harm her more but she wondered. Taking the girl, she heaved her up and put her on the bed in her room. Frowning, she shook her head.
"What a pair you and me both make, eh?"

Wish half-stirred, and suddendly sat up. Her eyes were wide open, and she gasped for breath. In the view seconds she had been asleep, she had relived the moment of her live that her mother had thrown her out.
*flashback* She was thrown outside into the snow. Coughing, she looking back. Snow was swirling around her, she couldn't see. A small figure ran through the white towards her, as her brother Teak kneeled beside her. The boy was only 5, and was crying. "Chase, come back inside. It's cold." He shivered, and tugged her arm.
Her mother, Mistress Kiri, kneeled down beside Teak, picking him up. She carried the screaming child inside, telling him, "How many times have I told you not to talk to strangers? Come inside, before you freeze!" She slammed the door as Chase watched, horrified.
She could still hear Teak screaming for her to come back. She stood up, frostbite gathering all over her hands. Her bare feet were numb, but she took the few steps to their living room window. Kiri was helping a furious Teak drink hot chocolate. She noticed Chase watching, and got up. Chase filled with hope. Was her mother going to the door? No, she was heading to the window. To open it, to let her in that way?
Kiri pulled the blinds shut, stopping Chases daydreams in their tracks. Sobbing, she got to her feet. She turned, and ran as fast as she could, crying. Her tears froze to her frostbitten cheecks. Then she couldn't run anymore. Her feet were frozen. She fell in a crumpled heap, crying.
*end of flashback*
Wish burried her face in her hands, and wept softly.

Standing, Amaayla recognised the stance Wish ahd took. A night terror lurked around, how many times had she been like this late at night? Doing the only thing that had comforted her, Amaayla walked over and sat on the bed with Wish.
"I know how ya feel. Want to talk about it?"

Wish looked up, her cheecks tear-streakred. She immediantly wiped them away, or tried too. "I'm not crying because I'm a baby or anything," She objected. Most of her street friends would tease her to no end if she had cried in front of them.

She smiled. "I know that, I can tell. You cry because you remember your past and somethign has scared you. Perhaps your parents, perhaps not. I am not telepathic or pre-cognitive but I have had the same trouble form most of my life. Dreams, flashbacks, terrors. I can tell and this is one of those times. So, do ya want to tell me?"

Wish took a breath, and started to talk. She told Channel all about how her mother had kicked her out, into the snow. She talked about how Yuki had introdouced her to the street gangs, and helped her make a living on the streets. Her old gang was The Mutants. She had wondered for a long time about why it was caled that, until she relized that the kids in the gang were mutants that could hide their powers easily, or were only half-mutants. Yuki, after finding out that her power was too big to be controled, had sent her here.
Wish finished, and opened her eyes again. They were still filled with tears, but weren't coming in streams now.

Amaayla said nothing but her eyes flashed angrily as she stood there and then walked to the open window. Grabbing the windowsill, she wrenched her hands on the bottom and the lights flickered suddenly. Then, the nearest one blew and shattered on the floor in small bits. Looking up, she frowned and clenched her nails into her hand as she pressed down hard on the palm.
“Sometimes I wonder how easy it would be to leave here and join the Brotherhood. At least then I would have an adequate way of showing my anger. Your story is different to mine, at least you did have parents at one point. I have not but I understand what you are going through. The only thing I can offer is my support…”

Wish smiled slightly. "Thanks. For everything. It helps, being able to talk about it. And here, we got something that the Brotherhood can't offer. Friends."
