Eva (170) has posed:
Its been a good morning. Eva actually had a night without nightmares. Such nights are few and far between. This has made her really happy. She actually grabbed a nice big breakfast. Just what her body needs to do what she is planning. The young woman has spent more time lately dealing with her old life and not embracing the new. Her new life is one of a girl with super powers. Today is training day.

Eva has gathered a few things. A radio, A lot of water, and some snacks just in case. She is ready. She turns on the radio. The sound of electric guitar begins wailing! ~Get your motor Runnin! Head out on the highway!~ The vocals ring out.

Dazzler has posed:
When the music comes on, it's like Ali has a 'Seventh Sense' for it. Also, it helps that she was out for a jog around the lake for once *not* with earbuds jammed into her ears. The Old New Dazzler is trying to adjust to the new place she's found herself in rather than drown it out.

But c'mon, *Steppenwolf!*

"BORN TO BE WIIIIIIIIILD!" Ali sings out loud and proud when the song reaches that point, slowing her jog and giving Eva an appreciative thumbs up for her music choice. "Morning!"

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva Smiles as she stretches. Speedforce lightning begins arcing in her eyes in bright yellow. In explosion of speed, she takes off when the chorus hits. She does several laps around the ground in a matter of seconds. Then as She notes Alison's presence, she stops and smiles, "Good morning to you too! I was just trying to do some training." She giggles a little.

She starts running in place. "I have been wanting to actually push myself a little. See what I can do. Gotta be careful though, I know I can run at least Mach 2. If I push myself too much out here I could turn the whole back yard into a tornado. Really don't want that. So yeah! Fun!"

Dazzler has posed:
"Laps in bigger spaces, check!" Ali laughs. "Have you talked to Quicksilver?" she asks before even stopping to think wether or not this world *has* a Pietro Maximoff, let alone that Eva might know who he is. "Ask him where he runs when he *really* wants to cut loose, that's bound to be a good spot."

Oh, duh. "I'm Alison. Been here a few days, still sorting out loose ends."

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva smiles a little. "Evangeline Wilde, Supernatural Studies Teacher. Also superpowered amateur as it were. I'm still learning how to use my powers. Its really difficult to be honest. As for Quicksilver? I've never met him. I do know someone who can help, I just don't want to bug him too much. He is often busy with saving lives and helping people. The Flash. He actually saved my butt when I reappeared.

"I can run around the world. That helps right?" She snickers. "I've got a few ideas. I just need to practice." She sighs.

Dazzler has posed:
"S'all good, right? Nice t'meet you, Evangeline." Ali reaches behind her head and scratches her neck a little, "I've met a Flash or two in my travels, they tend to be good guys." More often than not. Generally speaking.

"Hey, why the sigh though?" Yeah, Ali caught that. "Practice makes you awesome at what you can do, right? You teach, you know the value of practical applications, blah blah all that jazz." This is a grown woman talking like this.

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva snickers, "You're right. Its just a matter of finding a place I can safely practice. I know I am getting faster. I'm getting more confident. I mean..." A rush of air can be heard as she moves faster then the eye can perceive. She's behind Ali. "...This sort of thing..." She does it again. Now to the left of her. "...Its easy." Then back to where she was.

She's running in place again which... is starting to show a slight problem. She's actually running a rut into the ground. "Yikes!"

Dazzler has posed:
"Nice!" Ali exclaims, trying to keep up visually is hopeless but she tries anyway; and then she covers her mouth so as *not* to laugh out loud. Once she has enough composure, she adds, "Mmmaybe jog-in-place on paved surfaces. But we probably have some kid here who can move dirt with their mind or something, I wouldn't worry too much about the grounds. They've been through worse."

N'Gari Demon Mounds, Brood Attacks, Sentinels...

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva finally stops running in place. She looks at the hole and blushes a little. "Yikes I can't believe I did that in a few minutes." She laughs. The sweet sound of Magic Carpet Ride begins playing on the radio. She gives a little smile as she cracks her neck. "I am not used to learning ways to run! I'm used to learning to fight monsters, kill ghosts and such. Its odd really."

Then something clicks. She smiles a little. "What if, I use the internet to watch some of the stuff Flash does? Maybe I can learn some things that way. The problem is, even with my heightened perception, I'd be limited to the quality of the camera's used. We'd be looking at pictures of streaks."

Dazzler has posed:
"You got kindof a Taskmaster skillset or something? Watch someone do a thing, you can do the thing?" Ali ponders, rubbing her chin. "You really *should* bother a Flash more, if so, you could get all kinds of training way quicker. Instant download. I think you're right that vids wouldn't do it, though, no camera can keep up with a speedster."

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva shakes her head, "Err.. I don't know Taskmaster. I just could study someone's moves and mimic them. Thats just a form of training. I am not just physically faster." She holds a finger to her head, "I think and percieve the world at super speed. If I don't keep myself under control, Everything will appear as going super slow. Its not that the world slows down, its that I am moving and thinking so fast, it looks like time has stopped. When seconds feel like hours, I can learn some things really quick. The problem is I can also forget really quick too."

She snickers I know I've heard of The Flash running on walls. Maybe I can..." She look at the stone wall Quickly she changes the tune on the radio. 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC. Actually a really fitting song for her. "Lets find out." With a burst of speed and speed force lightning arcing off of her, She begins running alongside the stone wall, picking up some speed. She is actively trying to not break the sound barrier. That would be bad. blowing out the windows of the mansion would likely annoy Xavier and everyone else. She is doing laps around the place and a little wind is picking up. "ItsNowOrNever!" She speaks as fast as she is running. With a quick step, she finds herself on the wall running along side it. She's sorta defying She can feel the pull of it. The force of her legs though is keeping her from sliding down. Finally she steps off the wall and stops in front of Alison! "WOOOOO!!!"

Dazzler has posed:
Alison Blaire watches with a certain level of aplomb - speedsters can be fun, after all. "That the first time you did that? Cancelling out gravity is awesome, isn't it?" Hey, the excitement is infectious.

"The first time I did that I almost threw up because it's totally not a thing a body should be able to do, right?" She even offers up her hand for a high-five, if Eva's feeling it.

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva nods! "Oh my gods! That was great! It felt amazing! I wonder what it's like to run up buildings!?" She gets shifty eyed but she doesn't take off. Not yet anyway. She is still excited though. Maybe even a little bouncy.

She quickly high fives Alison. The moment she touches her, the world slows down for her. Once she breaks contact things speed up again. Turns out Eva is a little worked up at the moment. "Oh you fly?! Thats so sweet! I am pretty sure I can't do that. I can run though!"

Dazzler has posed:
"*Sometimes* I fly," Ali offers, giving a thumbs up after the high five. "It eats up a lot of power, so mostly I stick with the super-dramatic Anime Style Jumping. You can still totally make the Super-Hero-Landing Pose, so no real trade-off there.

The bendiness of time is barely noticed, focused as she is on the conversation. "I think you probably *could* work out a way to fly, but it's probably more efficient to just run. Economy of effort and blah blah blah."

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva Nods, "It depends really. For me it would require a boat load of speed. It would be like Jumping and just falling, matched with crazy forward momentum. It would give the impression of flight but not really be flying. So you're probably right. Just running works." She laughs a littl

"Wait Anime style super hero landings? I honestly can't do anything like that. I just sorta run and hope I stop in time. Plus I never really watched much anime. Actually I never watched any of it." She frowns. "My life has been messy at best."

Dazzler has posed:
"Lawd isn't that *everyone's* story around these parts?" Ali is sympathetic, of course. "Specially around Xavier's, the world is full of heartbreak, tragedy, thwarted desires and aspirations - a veritable Boulevard of Broken Dreams, if you'll allow me to be all Billy Joe Armstrong about it."

"Listen Evie," Ali ventures, "if there's anything at all I've learned with all the craziness I've seen, it's this: Life only has what meaning you give it, in the grand scheme of it nothing else matters. We've all got troubles, and some of us wear those hair shirts like they're Vera Wang or something."

Big shrug here, "Me? I just try to do what's right for me and help people as best I can. Don't worry so much about what you had to deal with in the past, use it to make life be what you want to be now." Alison grins, "I think you were on your way before I stood on my soapbox though, sorry."

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva nods, "Yeah I know. Everyone's got their own sob stories. Sadly what I have is enough for me to want to drink my pains away for the next millenia. You see, After my parents were killed, I became a hunter. Spent years hunting down and killing off anything evil I could find, getting stronger and better so I could track down what killed my parents and end it. I may as well have been a soldier in a war zone. Its a rare night that goes by that I don't have nightmares."

She smiles a little. "I did find the creature that killed my parents. I fought it and then, I killed it. When it died, Lightning struck both it and myself. No idea what happened to the creature but I was knocked out and thrown into a strange dimension if you will. The very heart of speed. The Speed Force. No idea how long I was there. Time flows weird there because Speed plays on time in a funky way. When I finally got out of that place, 6 months had passed here and I could move like a bat outta hell!"

She snickers, "Its been my goal to leave the life I lead but... I can't escape it." She smiles. "So While out hunting some vamps in Metropolis, I ran into Jean and she decided that the best way to get me out of that life was to teach!"

Dazzler has posed:
"Jeannie's a peach that way." Ali reaches down to grab a foot and stretch her leg, "A real friend of the friendless. Unless this is one of those universes where she gets possessed by a fiery cosmic bird and all Hell breaks loose, then she can be a real bitch."

Swapping legs, she reaches up with her other arm to counter-stretch, "If teaching turns out to be good for you, that's awesome. You just keeping doing you, y'know? Eventually all this shit works itself out. Alien invasions and pissed off Asgardian Goddesses don't exactly wait for you to have your personal life all figured out."

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva smiles, "Guess I will just need to keep on running. Maybe running away from my problems?" She laughs over that. "Seriously though, I am able to do more now then just kill monsters. Even if I do go out and do the job when I need to. I would much rather help people that don't think I'm insane when I mention what I am saving them from. You know how crazy people think you are when you say they are being haunted? Or that a Shapeshifter is causing trouble? Werewolves? They really look at you like you're nuts!" She snickers a little bit.

"Anyway I think I am going to like teaching. It will help people out. Not to mention save lives. Thats all I can hope for right?" She smiles a little bit. "That to me is a good reason to press on."

Dazzler has posed:
"More than you'd think, given the circumstances," Ali practically mutters. "Sanity's relative. If they're happy not to be dead, bitten, squished, replaced, defrakulated, or what have you, they can keep their opinions on sanity to themselves." So there.

"Listen, I'm gonna finish my run and then get back to business, you have fun figuring this all out, yeah?"

Eva (170) has posed:
Eva smiles and nods, "I think I am going to go for a run down to New York, maybe get a feel for running on buildings!" She snickers a little and then cracks her neck. "Ya know, Maybe I was just born for this stuff? Ya know? Heroics, Saving lives, Teaching and protecting... I love the idea."

With that she smiles, "Have fun with your run. I know I'm going to have fun with mine." It sounds like a gun going off. All that remains of Eva is a streak of yellow lightning which is trailing her as she goes tearing her way through Westchester and down to the city.
