“I- I don’t know. I don’t know what’s going on,” Rigel’s hands shook as he looked at his decimated camera. He tried to convince himself it was fine, but it wasn’t. He tried to tell himself it was okay, but it wasn’t. He tried to believe that they were still normal, but they weren’t.
Xander took Rigel's hands while they were shaking and placed a hand under his chin. "Look at me, we will get through it, we all will, together. I know we're not… normal anymore or ordinary but all we can do now is to deal with it head on and accept that this is who we are."
Elysia walked over to the others. She hadn't realized it but she had been crying. Her cheeks were wet and her eyes are red. Halfway to the others, she felt something in her pocket. She went to take it out when she saw a ring. It was a cheap gold looking ring with a stupid smiley face. She laughed darkly before chucking the ring onto the ground a few feet away. She went back to walking but felt something else in her pocket. It was the same ring.

"Try it on," Kylie urged the others. "When I put on my tiara, I felt like I could control the cosmos more. Rox, maybe it helps you gain control of your shadows." She suggested, quite liking the feel of the pink, glittery space tiara on her head.
Xander took Rigel's hands while they were shaking and placed a hand under his chin. "Look at me, we will get through it, we all will, together. I know we're not… normal anymore or ordinary but all we can do now is to deal with it head on and accept that this is who we are."
Rigel bit his lip before it could quiver and show his fear. “I— I liked being normal…” Just like that, his bag collapsed in on itself around Rigel’s hand, as if all the air and pressure had been sucked out of it. Rigel quickly pulled his hand out, the strange necklace in his palm.
"What…was that? Air…or something?" Kylie peered at the bag. "It's like in Doctor Strange, when he uses void in the mirror dimension to make things go in on themselves and whatnot."
Rigel leaned closer to Xander for support, fearing his own hands. The plane had imploded… “I- I don’t know…” I don’t want to think about it. Rigel bit his lip, trying to hide his emotions.
Rox clips the necklace onto her neck. As soon as she puts it on her eyes go all black, no whites or iris. "Whoaa." She mutters as dark swirls appear on her skin.
"Um…Rox? Do you feel okay?" Kylie asks, her blonde and pink appearance striking against this gray and black one.
Roxane stares at her hands, not noticing her eyes and hair tips turning black. "I feel okay, I actually feel really good."
"Your eyes and hair are black. Like, all black." She warned. "Do you feel…in control? Like I did of the cosmos?"
"Yeah. I can feel the shadows, like the trees and your shadow." She said, still staring at her hand's in wonder. "Wait, did you say my eyes and hair are black?!"
Kylie nodded slowly. "This is a bit extreme." Her stomach twisted at this new, quite terrifying version of Rox. The sky let out a nervous shudder with a flash of green that looked suspiciously like the northern lights, even though it was spring.
Rox glanced up at the sky. "I should probably take this off." she said, frowning down at her arms.
"No, it's fine, it's just…kinda weird. I mean, I didn't change physically with the tiara." Kylie fingers the crown.
Xander put the ring on his fingers like how the others were putting their items on. He felt more… in control of his powers. "What do we do now?"
(Not gonna be here till 7:30ish)
"We figure all this out." Luis stated, looking around at the items the group had gathered. Just as he was about to question why he didn't have one, a few blades of grass grew up to the height of his shoulders, then handed him a small golden compass. Luis hesitantly took it and turned it over in his hands. (https://goo.gl/images/4hHyDR)
“A compass?” Kylie peered over his shoulder.
"Strange," Rox muttered, taking a stand at the other shoulder. "Perhaps put the chain around your neck?"
Luis nodded, slipping the gold chain attached to the compass around his neck. The grass around him immediately grew up to his waist, and a few flowers sprouted around his feet. He felt like he understood his power more, but at the same time he didn't know exactly what he understood.
Hawkin was sitting on the coast. He had run for about 10 minutes, and he was watching the sky. Flashes of light and other things were coming from the direction that he had come from. Hawkin ran his hand through his hair. "What the heck is happening?" He kept running his hands through his hair, until one of his fingers caught on a chain in his hair. He pulled it out. "What the heck? I don't understand this… Is it bad that I know what kind of element is on this? It's magnesium… Highly… Explosive. Great just what I need…" He rolled his eyes, and put the necklace on. Suddenly, he felt in control. He bent his fingers, and stretched them out. He looked as far as he could down the beach. He stretched his hand out and cued an explosion that rocked the ground. "Whoa… That's intense…" He whispered. He pointed where he wanted an explosion chain, and he cued it. It followed his directions exactly. Earth shattering explosion after explosion, it did just as he wanted. The ground shook, and shook, and he could barely stand. he was pretty sure the others could feel what he was doing. He didn't care. After all it was just sand.
(Hawkin's necklace. Magnesium and flint. Used for starting fires, and small explosions.)
Elysia reluctantly put on the ring. Suddenly she felt better. She didn't know how but she did. (I could find any accessory that related to her power so I'm was just like oh well guess she gets a smiley ring)
Rox sat down on a rock, concentrating. she made a pulling motion at some shadows and the shadows moved to her hand, curling around her fingers. She wiggled her fingers, accidentally causing a beam of shadows to shoot out. "Fuck!" she muttered as the shadows touched a twig. the twig seemed to wither, curling in on itself.
“What the heck?” Kylie looked towards the explosions. “Hawkin!” She screeched. Ever since she’d discovered that he’d exploded the plane, Kylie had felt a particular resentment for him. A bright pink flare made the sky turn dark, with bright flashes for stars, for just a moment.
