Jumper was feeling a bit out of it lately. He wasn't sure what was wrong. Trying to figure some things out he walked along a quiet path. He kept asking himself why he was depressed. He was Jumper. Nothing got to him. But something was eating him up inside. And the worst part is. He couldn't figure it out. He really felt like since he got here, he had only gotten worse. He found out he couldn't teleport. He was really just moving really fast. And then he had to have these implants put in. He couldn't control his abilities without them. And still he was lacking, because he couldn't even try his power out at its highest level. Kicking a stone on the path.
He wasn't fitting in with the other students. They didn't seem to understand him at all. Sighing deeply he tucked his hands deep into his pocket. He didn't have any goals, or any real mentors. He didn't feel like he could open up to anyone really. And he wanted to do so much. But Jumper felt stupid asking for help. He didn't want to seem like he was begging for attention. There were so many questions he had abotu his powers, and there was noone here who could relate to his ability. Noone that could tell him how to focus, or attempt to push himself. Beast had started workign with him, since Beast placed the implants on him. Jumper was tempted to just do it, to "Dial" himself up fully and just go for it ot see what happened. And he still wondered what the blue crackling energy that came off him when he was moving very fast. He didn't know how to explore that either. He also wanted to learn how to fight. He never really had ot fight before. He always relied on his wit and his teleporting to get him out of trouble. But he could move so fast and his mind and body could react in a blink. He wanted to be able to use it all together. He was getting frustrated with himself now. Feeling weak. Though he would never admit it to anyone.

Lucy was humming to herself skipping happily along the path. Her little backpack with all her crayons and blank pages bounced up and down on her back. She had dropped her bags at the front of the school and no one was around so she decided it would be fun to go and find a garden. "La la la" she said softly smiling and skipping. As she got further along the path she saw a silver haired boy. He looked kind of sad. She pulled her hand up to her face, tightening it into a little fist. "Hello Mr. Big kid guy sir. May I ask why your face is so sad?" she asked in her small voice her little frame adding to her cute child like nature.

Jumper looked up as this little girl approached. It was almost like a scene out of a story book. Jumper was expecting to see little birds flying around her and squirrels following her. As she looked up and asked him about his face, Jumper tilted his head a bit. Of all the people to find him out here alone. He would have to be found by this ten or eleven year old kid. Sighing a bit and shrugging. Jumper placed his usual cocky smile on. "Who? Me? Sad, never. Im fine. So what brings you out here? I do not think we have met. Im Jumper."

Lucy looked up at him shaking her head. "Well Mr. Jumper my mommy use to tell me never to lie" she said with a huff shaking her finger at him. "It's bad to lie" she added. She walked up to him looking up at the way taller guy. "Plus whenever someone says their fine they're really not. I may be little but I'm not stupid, why don't you tell me Mr. Jumper why you put on such happy face to hide your sadness? Oh and I'm Lucy" she said with a child like smile. Lucy was a perceptive little girl, it came with living with her older brother and father after her mother died. They would always say they were fine but she learned that they weren't fine. Not at all. She smiled up at the boy. "I promise I'm a good listener."

Jmper chuckled a bit at how Lucy was acting. He then shrugged and smiled at her once more. "Well it seems I cannot put anything past you Lucy. And your mommy is right. You should never lie." It did surprise him a bit at how such a young girl could read him so well. "Lets see. I always try to smile and put on a happy face so those around me do not know I am upset. This way I do not make anyone else sad. There is no reason for others to be sadbecause I may be." Nodding as he answered the question. "So now, Lucy, What brings you to this school?"

Lucy smiled laughing lightly at the boy. "I'm here cause I'm special. At least that's what my big brother says!" she said bouncing up and down. She reached into her little dress pocket with a smile as she pulled out a tiny folded up piece of paper with some stains on it. She unfolded it to reveal at tiny dragon drawn by crayon sitting calmly on the paper. "Look!" she said holding up for him to look at. "I call him Fire. He's a dragon. I made him the day my mommy died and he's kept me company ever since. Come on fire show him a trick!" Lucy said looking at the paper. The dragon batted its wings and blinked up at the boy. "See! See! He's funny, but he's a very good listener, he kept me company when no one else could. He was very good to me" she smiled at him pulling the paper back close to her.
She looked up at the big kid and then down at the paper. "Here. I'm only letting you borrow him though, but you can talk to him. He really listens and he doesn't get bothered or sad, he just listens. This way you can tell someone about your problems, even if it isn't me! Then you can no longer be sad. But you can only borrow him, I do want him back, he reminds me of my mom" she said smiling a big grin up at him holding the paper out for him to grasp.

Jumper listened to Lucy as she talked. Taking his time and watching what he showed her. Lucy made the drawing move. He wasn't sure if she actually made it alive, or if she was just manipulating the drawing. He could tell that the drawing meant a lot to her. And the offer was sincere. So he reached out and took the drawing looking at it carefully. "Well Lucy, thank you very much. This is very sweet fo you. And I will definitly take care of Fire until I get him back to you. And yes you are very special, not just because of what you can do. But for who you are. Have you been into the Mansion yet?"

Lucy shook her head back and forth. "Nope, when I arrived no one was around, so, so, so I just left my bags up on the stoop thing door place" she said giggling a little bit. "Then I thought I'd explore and look for a pretty garden to play in. I like gardens. They're fun!" she said smiling jumping up and down on her feet. She giggled some more looking up at the silver haired big boy. "Your hair is shiny, I like it" she said smiling.

Jumper smiled again at how Lucy was. She was too cute. Walking along the path back to the mansion. "Well thank you Lucy. I like my hair too. After you get settled into the Mansion look for me. I will show you the school gardens. I am sure you would love them."
Walking back up to the mansion and leading Lucy back inside and showing her where to go to get checked in he smiled to the little girl. "Well Lucy, it was a pleasure meeting you, And I am sure I will see you again soon. Thanks again for letting me borrow 'Fire' I will make sure to get him back to you soon." With that Jumper winked and slipped away.
