"Well now you have your first one," Phoenix said to Ebony. "That is if I'm welcomed to be your friend."

"Well, think I can manage that," said Ebony, "I'll welcome you as my friend, Phoenix."

Lightning gave the incapacitated Grayston a wide berth as he approached. "Hope that'll keep him down for a while."
"Yes." Kathleen waved Cole off.
*earlier*
"Can you shift that towards the center?" she asked Amelie.
Shayla was setting "grenade spells" that would promote confusion and disorientation in Grayston when he woke up. Kathleen had taught her that much when she was started out in the basics. It was now occurring to her that drug-dealing and the other line of work were not a good plan for her life.
"I have some things I don't exactly want to remember either." Doc confided to Raine. "Wrecking, being tossed aside like trash, losing a love, and burying it for forty years. There is no such thing as a pain-free life."

"And I"ll welcome you as my friend... Ebs..." Phoenix said. "But what are we gonna do with him." She gestured to her grandfather still out cold.

Raine turned away, "Please Doc... don't push me onto this... I really don't want to talk about my past... it's too painful... I don't want to sink into depression again like I used to... I should move on, just like you have."

Ebony blinked at being called by her familiar nickname. "He needs to be stripped of his powers," Ebony nods, "Knock him down a few notches so he'll be on my level. He won't be so tough if he happens to wake up with no powers."
Her spikes flicked impatiently.

/** EARLIER */{ "Yes, why?", Amélie said.
Martin was coming back from his jogging. }

"We'll have to wait for Kathleen for that," Phoenix said. "I don't know anything about stripping power. Hopefully he'll stay out that long."

"We might have to," said Ebony, "but he threw lightning bolts at me again. Some of them missed and some of them hit and the later hurts."

"Here," Phoenix offered. "Let me what I can do about them."

Ebony picked herself back up on her tires. "Alright. Go ahead."

Kathleen set down on a wide expanse not far from where Ebony and Phoenix had brought Grayston down. She ascended a gentle grade which brought her to high ground overlooking the scene, and waved to Shayla to come down.
"Well, you three have done very well." she addressed Ebony, Phoenix and Lightning. "Now, we finish."
She tapped the ground with a prop blade, and the earth around Grayston welled up and banked on the sides, binding him. "You know what I said about our land vomiting out the people who try to break it to their will? I wasn't just telling stories."
Doc sighed, resigned to letting that boundary remain in place for now. "All right. I don't want to push you into something you're uncomfortable doing."
*earlier*
"If you used your wing tanks to hold something else, you could dump it over the land." Kathleen had said to Amelie. "I have something in mind, and you'd have the capacity to do it."

/* I hit the sack. Work tomorrow. */
/** EARLIER*/"No problem, what is it?", Amélie asked.

"Thanks," Phoenix said as she went to work on healing Ebony's lightning burns. "But is there anyway that we can strip him fully of his powers? Not just block them, but make him like Ebony?"

Raine walked over to Doc's side, "I'm sorry... It's just that... I don't feel ready...and I don't like it when others try to push me to do something I'm not ready for..."
