Kitty looked to D'mnchyld as she offered to show what she could do. Though she had read her file and read what she could do, she could still see for herself the girl's abilities. "You can go ahead though I have an idea. However because of the circumstances in which your abilities come of use, I was hoping I could talk to you about that," she said, glancing at her charge's jagged blade.
Turning to Aqua, she shrugged a little. "If you want, I mean, I saw you looking a bit tired. You're free to practice more here under my watch if you like. Maybe you could try working on a few tricks, perhaps creating little attacks, maybe a water whip or something? Just as long as you don't hurt anyone with it," she suggested. She knew she hadn't been there for all that long, but she didn't want to run down her students after a very trying day.

Riker smiled to himself as he found the final of the five objects. He put the last one in his pocket and let out one more sneeze. Man these things were dusty. He leaned back slightly before bolting towards Miss. Pryde and the water girl. He slid to a stop near her dropping the statues to the ground. "Got em' all" he said with a smile. Looking up at her with a grin and then smiling at the water girl.
Having overheard a little bit of their conversation Riker smiled to Miss Pryde. "If you want she can practice with me. She can work on attacks and I could dodge, it would help with speed and agility for me and it'd give her some target practice. As long as she promises not to hurt me too bad" he said with a laugh to the girl and a cheeky smile.

Kitty laughed as Riff~Raff came back and dropped all the little statuettes in front of her. "Good job Riker, and it didn't take you all that long. Well done," she said with a warm smile.
Hearing his idea, she nodded with another smile. "You know, that's a good idea. Heather, what do you say about working with Riker? You can try out something like I suggested, and use him for target practice and work on it, while you give him a good run for his money and help his speed and agility. A win-win situation, as long as you don't hurt him much," she said, looking to Aqua for an answer. She thought that was a clever idea, and was open to hear ideas from her students.

Sara quietly sat down at the side of the court completely mesmerized by Heather's manipulation of the pool water. Inded, was so fascinated by it that she barely noticed the cold. Not long afterwards she noticed Riker come back , and when he finished talking to Ms. Pryde she waved to him and smiled, remembering how kind and brotherly he had been to her the night before. As Heather had finished with her water tricks, for now, Sara soon became quite aware of the frigid temperatures and quickly pulled her knees to her chest in a vain attempt to shied herself from the cold.

Heather looked to Riker and winced. She remembered the problems he was having with his sister in the hanger the day before. She hoped he wasn't the same, although it didn't seem like it yesterday or today. She grew the wince into a smile and looked to Shadowkat. "That is a great idea," she said with a smirk. She stopped pushing the water into the pool and remained with the large amount she still had. She has it circle her body, helping her conserve some energy and then rose her arms over her head. With that, her mind clear of distraction, she formed the water into to sections. With deep thought, she shaped the floating bodies of water into rectangles. Then slowly, she formed the blocks of water into two large whips. It was straining her energy for she never tried it before. She did however, do it.
With a smile of satisfaction, she looked to Shadowkat and then Riker. "Ready?" she said with a smirk.

Riker waved over to Sara before his eyes got pulled to the girl. Aqua he believed her name was. The water circling her body in patterns and forms that astounded him. He couldn't believe how skilled she was. Truly he was impressed as she formed them into two whips. Taking small rectangles and connecting them together.
Riker laughed at her words, a smirk forming on his face. "Let's see if you can keep up" he said backing up slightly and getting on all fours preparing for her attacks. This was going to be interesting. He just had to make sure the whips never touched him. Those things would pack a kick. He closed his eyes slightly readying his stance. He sniffed the air concentrating on her to pick up her scent. He could use it to track her movements, since water was not that easy to smell he kept his ears on guard for the fluid motions of it. The sound should help to be a trigger for that. "Let's do this."

Heather smirked and raised her arms. Using her mind and body, her arms would reflect the movement of the whips. Her energy was running low, however she was able to hold out for a while longer. She smirked wider and spun around, causing whip on her right to snap right in front on Riker's nose. She did it to tease him and retracted it before it touched him. Bringing the left whip up by raising her left arm, Heather lunged at Riker and got ready to crack the whip again, this time aiming for his side.

Riker laughed at her teasing. She was a cute one. As she pulled the whip back once more he concentrated on the whips movement through the sound of the water and predicted its destination. He crouched down low and jumped into the air spinning before landing once more. "Your gonna have to be faster than that love, if you're going to catch me" he said with a laugh and started to run around in circles around her at a good speed. He was only encroaching on about twenty five mph but he knew that she was tired and he didn't want her to stress herself that much. After all it took a lot of energy for anyone to manipulate the elements. He was just lucky to live with his condition being pragmatic twenty-four seven, so he learned to adjust.

Heather smirked and breathed in. She clenched her fists, helping her to hold on to the weight of the water whips and keep their form. She spun around, allowing both whips to turn and move as if a leather one would. She cracked the right one and then the left at Riker, trying to trick him and make him hear the whips one after the other. She then ran to him, releasing her fist in her left hand and formed the large whip into a ball of water. "Now what would happen if i let this fall on you?" she said with a laugh.

Riker's eyes widened as she figured out that he was listening to the water. 'What a clever girl' he thought to himself smiling at her and glancing at the big ball of water. Well this was a predicament. How would he get away from the water. She looked tired. Maybe he could use that to his advantage. He let out a laugh. "Well I dunno, possibly I'd get all wet, that is if you can drop it" he said and in a flash shot off right towards her head on, going from zero to fifty in a second flat. He came up behind her and grabbed her sides starting to tickle her.

Heather laughed and then jumped in shock as he ran past her so quickly. She dropped the water and it splashed everywhere. "Hey!" she said immediately. But it was too late. He was already tickling her. "Stop stop," she screamed, squealing with each passing moment the torture passed by. Although he was trying to have fun, Heather was upset that she wasn't able to attack him. In an instant she opened her eyes and pretended the tickling was worse than it really was. She made the water on the floor slither around their feet and glide behind Riker. "Please it's too much," she said between breaths. She then gave him a smirk and said "HA!" The water behind him hit him like a wave. Heather laughed and brought the rest of her energy together for one last attack. She raised her hands above her head, gathering as much as she could, as quickly as she could, and then clapped her hands together, causing a jet stream aimed for Riker's stomach.

Riker was surprised as a stream of water hit him right in the stomach propelling him backwards before engulfing him in water. He laid on his back a couple feet from her surrounded in a pool of water. He started laughing as the cool water felt good on his torso. "Okay, okay, you win you win" he said feeling the pain in his back from the hit. She got him good. She took advantage of him underestimating her as well as the fact that he obviously didn't want to hurt her. He sat up and smiled at her. "I'm impressed" he said putting his hands between his legs, sitting up like a dog. "You're a strong girl."

Heather laughed as she watched Riker take her hit. A eurphoric feeling of pride and joy spread through her body. She was getting better, considering when she first arrived to the school, she didn't even know how to summon her powers.
She looked smirk to Riker as he placed himself in his "dog" stance. "Thank you," she said proudly. "You aren't that bad yourself. But don't bring gender into this." That was the one thing Heather hated the most: gender comparison. She was able to be just as strong, if not more, than a male. Hell Aideen was able to beat Ian if she wanted to. The thought made her giggle.
She looked around them. Although it was winter still, she couldn't feel the cold. That was good. It meant she was working hard. Her strength however was weaker now and she was too tired to continue her training. By sections, Heather brought the pool water back into the pool, otherwise the temperature would create an ice rink out of the basketball court.

Without hesitation, D'mnchyld took the opportunity to cut with permission and pulled the jagged blade across the back of her forearm, tearing a wicked rip on her flesh. The drops of deep crimson blood fell and before they hit the ground three small creatures sprang form them flopping and landing hard on the snowy cold ground.
They grumbled and cursed at her in some strange language and they dusted themselves clean of the snow. Two of them looked at each other and started to immediately fight. It was comical to k'8 who giggled and clapped at their antics. "Talk about what?"

Anastasia walked into the basketball court with a grin on her face. Having just returned back from finland on winter holidays she was excited to return to school, something she thought she would never even dream of. Never the less, she strode in confidently, smiling warmly to everyone else in the room. Having received a message about som sort of group training, she hoped that it would be alright for her to join, even if she had been away for the whole holidays after christmas.
"Hallo evereeone! is it ok zat i join?" she asked kindly, waving at Shadowkat and everyone else, making sure to not be intruding on anyone in the process. Turning back, Anastasia telekenetically pulled a small bag from behind her through the door, "I brought chocolates for everyone for afterwards if zat is ok?" she cheered, still grinning.
