Start Over

Van: she tried to use her powers and started talking about a girl in her head

* Anty gulps*

Anty: I was afraid this could happen.

Van: What do you mean?

Anty: She has recovered physically but the mental reboot is taking longer. Her power requires focus
and she is having difficulty reverting back to that state.

Vibes: I am here and I can hear you you know!

Van: so what do we do to help?

* Anty tries to think*

Anty: Something appears to be preventing her from being able to focus. We need to find a way to address that.

Van: right.

*Anty turns to Vibes*

Anty: Vibes, I want to avoid using any more potions if we don't have to. You've been
hit hard. What I am going to try to do (and Van can help) is allow you to address
what is preventing you from restoring your powers.

Vibes: the voices wont shut up!!

*Anty holds Vibes' hand*

Anty: Take a moment, Vibes. Focus in one of them at a time.

IN VIBES' HEAD...

*Vibes is in the orphanage*

Vibes (thought): Why won't they let me play with the other kids?

Clyde: what a loser

*Anty looks sympathetically at Vibes*

Anty: Clyde came later Vibes, we'll get to Mike's Dojo after this.

Vibes: Why? Why do I have to be in this stinky place first?

Anty: It wasn't your fault. Sandra and the people in the orphanage tried but couldn't cope.

Vibes: H...how do you know?

Anty: Because I was the one that recommended you got moved.

*vibes is suddenly in a car headed to anty's*

*Van looks on*

Van: Wait what?

Anty: Ah yes, our first meeting. You were...not keen.

*Vibes imagines a massive desk and Anty looming over her*

Vibes: You looked scary.

Anty: I realised that.

* Vibes imagines Anty reaching out and putting her on his giant hand*

Anty: We started talking and I knew it wasn't just the powers that made you special.

Vibes: r...right....

* Anty hands her a sweet*

Anty: You remember what I told you?

Vibes: Th...that... being different wasn't a bad thing.

Anty: Exactly.

Vibes: but...but...

*Anty looks concerned*

Anty: This isn't the only issue though, is it?

*Vibes nods*

MEANWHILE...

*Sal wobbles awkwardly as she tries to walk*

Sal (thought): Want to keep moving...but...so...hard...

Sally: must..keep moving

*Sal looks round, seeing people in the crowd supressing laughter*

Sally: ignore them...im a hero...

Voice: You're a big fat joke.

Sally: who said that?!

*Sal looks round but it's a crowd that doesn't react to her*

Sally: just...just hearing things

Voice: mummy was right about you. Even your chin looks fat

*Sal shuts her eyes, straining*

Voice: They'll never accept you as a leader. They will always love Vibes more than you.

Sally: stop...lying....


Voice: are you sure im lying? *sal's head fills with laughter.*
