Shaking her head a little Torri waved her hands in front of her face, "No thank you Jumper, i don't think i'm suited to basketball." she laughed, refusing the ball he held out to her. "You're alot better than me so i shal leave you too it." she giggled. "And as for my power....I don't even understand what i can really do, never mind being able to let it become natural." she giggled.

He smiled and took the ball taking the shot himself. Watching it go in. Turning ot her he shrugged and winked. "Maybe I was born with natural talent." Facing Shimmer fully he slowly waled around her. " You said you can shapechange? How do you know you can? What have yuo changed before?"

She stiffened a little as he walked around her, keeping her eyeline down to the floor. "Um...well.....as you can see, i kindof messed up my hair by accident once..." she said, pointing to the streaks of white in her hair. "And i've been able to alter my figure as long as its proportioned, like, taller and skinnier and shorter and fatter. As long as i retain my full body mass i can change my shape. But it's difficult. And miss frost said it's just a matter of time before i can just change completely." she said quietly, folding her arms around herself shyly.

He grinned to himself as he thought about that. The possibilities were limitless. Ofcourse he was a teenage boy and his thoughts werent all innocent. Stopping in front of her again he nodded. "Ok, so you can alter yoru personal features within limits of your body mass. Have you tried to look like someone else?"

Torri, looked up a little and shook her head, "No, i don't think i have. I mean, people have different body masses dont they. And i don't find it extremely easy you know." she said quietly. "But i do try sometimes, i've only been able to get a close look alike but nothing too good." she said quietly again, looking away from him a little and keeping her gaze over her shoulder.

"Try something. Its what helped me. Think of someone you like. An actress or someone. Close yoru eyes and just think about them. Dont think about using yoru power, just get a clear image of them and think of somethign fun you saw them doing." He was speaking casually, it was a technique he had used when he was trying to teleport to a place he had been to before.

Torri looked a little confused at his comment. "Like...just anyone?" she asked with a small note of confusion in her voice. "Um....well....i could try....." she said slowly. Standing a little away back from him and closing her eyes she went through people she knew the image of. Thinking back to the thanksgiving dinner, she immediately hought of the girl Haven. Taking a deepbreath she put the image of Haven in her head, her jumping accross the table and knowcking everthing over. It did make her laugh she needed to admit, but she was sure that the technique would work herself.

"Ok, now you have a thought in yoru head of this person. Now simply imagine yourself doing whatever it is they did. Let the thought and image float through your head. Dont force it. Just let it come. Let the feeling of being that person fill you. Think of every wave of hair. color of the skin. Dont think about your power. Just let it fill you." He used to think of the girls locker room and the shower room when he was in regular school and would pop in there once and a while just for fun.

Torri giggled a little to herself as she tried to put herself situation of being in Havens skin as she jumped accross the table, seeing the table of food fly past her as she crawled across it. She let herself see the white skin of Havens complexion as her arms moved before her in the crawling motion and the hair from Havens head flop in front of her face. She was almost eyjoying the thoughts and kept giggling childishly and biting her lip as she went through the thought in her mind.
She couldn't tell if anyhing was happening, she was too intent on the in mind thoughts of Haven to think of anything else.

While Shimmer's eyes were closed he had popped to his room and then returned with a mirror. He waited and could tell she was enjoying the thoughts running through her head. It was liek when he needed to teleport to someplace he knew well. "Can you feel yourself being that person. Doing what they were? Now just let that image fill your every thought. Like water running through your body. Think of just being that person." He held the mirror up infront of her.

Torri listened as Jumper spoke again, soon enough she almost believed she was Haven, although she knew it was physically impossible it was nice to just pretend in her own mind. She tried to focus on what he said, but realised the feeling was more welcoming than she had thought it to. Almost warming. Slowly, she nodded to herself and felt the urge to open her eyes, now believing slightly that she was filling her mind with false hope.
On opening her eyes and seeing the reflection, Torri screamed in a high pitched loud voice, falling backward onto her backside and raising her hands to her hair. She looked close to what she did before, her features the same but her hair...and even skin were identical to Haven. Still screaming a little Torri felt her hands shake and looking down became very distressed at the colour change in just her skin and hair.

He blinked at the reaction, pulling the mirror away and stepping towards her. "Shimmer! Relax!, It is what you were trying to do. You did it! You were taking her form. Relax. He kneeled down a bit but didnt try and touch her. "Its just a simple trick of not getting in yoru own way. And not concentrating on what you need to do. Just doing what you want to do."

Torri looked up with a very frightened and concered look on her facem her hands still shaking a little. She was still very scared at having seen her with pigment changed skin. She couldn't help but give a small whimper of distress at Jumper as he knelt down beside her, "I don't like this, not at all. I want to go back!" she said in a small cry, although she was close to anyway. "I don't care if i got this wrong, i want to go back to what i looked like before." she said, almost pleadingly, locking eyes with him and showing her which were beginning to water slightly.

"Relax Shimmer and just clear your head. You have to relax and let yourself adjust. You are fine and just think of how you knwo you look. That should be the most comfortable for you. Relax." He could say it enough. He didnt mean to scare her so. But he did get her to use her powers with a bit of ease. Thats why they were here right, to learn to use their powers.

Torri nodded a little and tried to relax, curling herself into a tight ball on the floor and taking auiable deep breaths trying to calm herself down. It wasn't easy though, as she was given such a shock from the mirror. Still shaking she kept taking deep breaths until she finaly got it back to normal, thinking hard of what she used to be like, her red and white hair, pale creamy skin tall figure. She tried to think back to how she felt within her own comfortable skin.
Slowly she looked up again, her eyes slightly red and puffed from her small bowt of crying she uncurled herself and sat back a little. "I don't like this power, not at all, it's horrible." she said quietly, leaning her chin on her arms as the rest on her knees, looking blankley at nothing,
