What The Luck!?

"Art, you get to start. I know you want to work on your super power too, but I think you should work out first so that you challenge your mind more." Art wanted to rush right in to training his power now that he had some successes in the sparing with weights. But Asher had a good point.

"What are we going to do?" Jane was a little lost. There was only one bed. \'Is he going to ask me to sleep in the bed with him?\' Her face turned bright red but soon another thought came to mind, \'But he\'ll need to share with Art too. And hen he will want me to share with Art.\'

"I was thinking one of us could rest while the other works on their super power on the opposite side of the room. It\'s in the time table but if you need help I can skip my nap." Asher knew that Jane might want help since she had a super power that directly affected other people.

"Oh, ummm no I think I should work on my body. I don\'t have a firm grasp on the strength of my nails and skin just yet, Garnet has a small action on scratching attacks on my app too." Jane acted fidgety and awkward but Asher didn\'t even think twice about it.

"The real question is how do I get to know my power better?" Asher sat down on the end of the bed and started thinking. He fully intended to train as best as he could since he had the chance, but the problem was how to do so.

"Well, what are lucky things that happen in general? Flip and coin and try and make it land on what you want over and over? We could play rock paper scissors? Oh! You should download a bunch of those gotcha draw games, they are all about luck."

Hearing Jane\'s ideas Asher could only nod happily. There were tons of useless games that were just a waste of time for people to play. But with the in game mechanics, they could be incredibly hard. Some only gave the chance to get a certain in game character at one perfect. This could give Asher an idea of just how strong his lucky jinx skill could be.

"I am going to download a bunch while I sleep. Good luck on your training too." Asher dove in to the bed and set up ten games to download. Whether he liked it or not he was going to be a gamer today.

Art and Jane went to their respective corners and started their own training. Art was hard at work trying to learn a new move along with smooth out the ones he was already using. The elite home gym system constantly updated the screen showing the small inconsistencies in his movements. With this he was able to improve by a great margin, however, he was feeling the demand on his body in no time.

Jane was a little different. She had found a solid metal alloy training dummy in the closet. There were targets painted on it and she had the feeling that it was just the right toughness to handle her solid sharp nails.

With the flex of her hand, she could feel her nails extend which gave her chills. This was a feature of her body after the evo shot that she didn\'t fully appreciate. The scales and purple hair had thrown her off, but the nails were scary.

Jane took a deep breath and flexed them a few more ties. She needed to be used to this motion if she was going to use it when she was facing a real villain. The thought that they wouldn\'t go easy on her was ringing clearly in her mind. Once she had become ready and calm she aimed at the dummy\'s chest and slashed out with her nails.

The sound of screeching metal made Asher and Art turn and focus on her immediately. She hadn\'t caused much damage to the dummy but she has left scratches across the entire front. "Sorry, I didn\'t know how strong my nails were…" She feared her friends would think she was some terrifying monster like the greek mythology said medusa was.

"That was freaking awesome. You can easily break any armor or defenses a villain has. No one will be able to escape you." Asher was nearly jumping out of the bed but realized if he didn\'t nap now he would end up going without proper rest and it would affect his training.

Art gave two thumbs up before returning to his training and mumbling about a prompt from the elite home gym system about being distracted. Jane looked at the marks and her nails and slowly smiled as she realized that she may have been too hasty to judge the changes in her body.

Not once had Art or Asjer judged her for her appearance and Asher had even complimented her before. Now the most deadly looking part of her was still complimented and approved by her friends. With the acceptance of what she was now, Jane felt her power truly becoming her own.

The slashing she practiced was more on instinct but it was enough for her to get a feel. By the time the first alarm went off, she had gained the proper technique to flex her hand to make her nails extend in an instant. This would give her the ability to slash away any bindings on hostages or even cut through long ranged attacks.

Jane was still apprehensive about using her nails on a person, but if they had tough armor she wasn\'t going to just fall back. This was also under the pretense that her ability to freeze someone in place like a stone statue wasn\'t working. Feeling happy with her evolving style she stole the bed from Asher who was moving towards the work out area of the Luxury cabin.

"I am pretty sure there are some of those weights we used at the sparring field in the closet," Asher told Art this while yawning and looking through the elite home gym system for his work out set.
