Pondering Life (Open)
Caitlyn was sitting on the shore of the lake and playing with the water. She spent more time down here than she spent in her room and she liked it that way. One could never practice with powers too much. Today she had a dozen small spheres of water orbiting around her as she sat and thought about how she was going to tell her parents she didn't want to go home to Nova Roma for the summer.

She loved her home, she just found New York to be more exciting. Professor Xavier said she could stay here for the summer and be an X-Woman now that she was graduating. There was also the option of college. She had been accepted to two smaller schools in the area and one in the city. She just had to decide on one and what she wanted to do.

Cait hated making decisions. She was a more of a "go with the flow" kind of girl.

She concentrated and increased the speed of the spheres as they orbited around her.

	A baseball sailed through the small spheres, hitting one and splattering Caitlyn with droplets. A moment later, Misha appeared to get his ball back. "Hey, did you see a ball come through here?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Misha!" Cait smiled as water dripped off the tip of her nose. "I did and it got me wet." A tendril of water came out of the lake, picked the ball up and moved over to where he stood. "This one?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sorry about that, Cait." He grinned back and reached for the ball. "That'll be the last time I tell the kid to aim for the sky. Except I don't think I want to be the one catching those fast balls. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's okay. It's only water and that's easy enough to take care of." She grinned. She had always been free with the use of her powers. The water evaporated from her face. "Now if it were the ball I had gotten hit with, it would have been a different story." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-05-21 10:56 am UTC (link)
	He tossed the ball up and caught it, the baseball player's version of pacing. "I've been hit with one of these fast balls. It hurts. A lot. But what can I do? When I said anybody was welcome for a pick up game, I meant anybody. And that's what I got." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"But you have that fancy healing factor," she said with a smile. Oh he was so nice to look at. That's all Cait would get to do. She would never have a chance with him. "You should know better to do that with all the kids and different powers here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-05-21 11:14 am UTC (link)
	He shrugged, still smiling. "Kids need to play, and there's nothing better than a softball game. Teamwork and all that. Except when it's my ball and somebody was telling stories about the lake monster after lights out. Then the team will be happy to wait over on the lawn while I get the ball. You wouldn't know who's busy reviving that old story, would you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucas hasn't been playing, but has been enjoying the sunny day while watching, sitting a ways back from the batter's box. Safer that way. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Cait waved when she saw him. It was the new kid and it was always good to be nice to the new kid. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dream_catcher 2009-05-21 10:38 pm UTC (link)
	He returns the wave pleasantly. Always good to be nice to cute girls. He calls towards the batter's box, "Watch out now, looks like they're bringing in a ringer." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And, um, some of us had to...withdraw from the game." Corey added from under another tree. "...Possibly in flaily, Charlie-Brown-like fashion." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kaila hated baseball, and most sports for that matter, but watching the game allowed her to watch the other students. More importantly it allowed her to watch them use their powers. It was important information she needed to know. She sat not too far away from where they were playing and intently watched. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	dream_catcher 2009-05-22 06:18 pm UTC (link)
	Likewise still sitting and watching, Lucas glances over her way, letting the other kids focus better on the game. "I don't think we've met. Lucas Moonstar." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_brotherhood 2009-05-22 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	She put on a smile. "Kaila Mailiani. Nice to meet you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Its a pleasure. Not into baseball?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ng_brotherhood 2009-05-22 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	"Not really. Well at least playing. I don't mind watching. What about you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Was that three outs already?" Cait asked. "Can't be. Cheaters!" she teasingly accused. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hush you!" he yelled back at her. "It was more like thirty!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Corey scoops himself up a bat. His slightly-scraped leg still hurts just a little, but no admitting that now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-05-24 07:07 am UTC (link)
	"Was not!" Cait yelled as she picked up a glove and headed for short stop. It was her favorite position to play. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-05-24 07:21 am UTC (link)
	Misha came in from the field and passed by close enough to tug on her hair playfully. "Was too," he countered with a laugh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
