Elliot's moments awake had been short. He was now trapped in his mind, his burst of powers being too much to handle. He sat, curled up in the edge of a void of nothingness. He heard a soft ruffle of feather behind him and assumed it was just his wings, but something was off- he didn't
have his wings. he looked up to see a large, magnificent Peregrine Falcon behind him. It was big- at least two times Eli's size- and it looked just like him. At least, it had
wings just like him.
The falcon cocked its head, though Eli saw a flash of recognition in its eyes. He wondered what this bird was doing, what
he was doing, in a void, trapped in his mind.
Am I in cuckoo land?, Eli thought as the falcon lit itself on fire. He gasped in awe, and the phoenix looked at him with understanding. It raised one of its talons, letting a small ball of flame go in front of Eli's face. Eli felt its warmth- it was comforting, not harsh like a fiery blaze.
Eli knew what the phoenix was trying to tell him. He was lending him his power. It was a small extent of it, sure, but it was something. Eli reached out to grab it, and as his arm swung towards the fire that would've surely burnt his hand to a crisp, he woke up. He saw the girl who had summoned zombies just mere moments ago- though it seemed like a lifetime for Elliot- and a girl with a zoo's worth of animals next to her.
He, himself, felt fine, as if nothing happened. He saw Jenny kneeling next to him, concern riddled across her face. "Jen, I'm fine. Go home, it's dangerous here."
Jenny shook her head. "No way! Did you see what that guy did to you? I need to help you!" Eli shrugged.
"Jen, your telekinesis is nothing more than a convenience- or, at least for me, an annoyance." Elliot chuckled. "Go home." Jen rolled her eyes, but stood up nonetheless. Shooting one last mournful glance at her brother, she ran off to the apartment building. Elliot's stood up, dusting himself off. He opened his palm, and concentrated- and a ball just like the one he had seen the phoenix give to him appear in his palm.
He smiled- he finally had some control over his powers! He closed his fist and the fire dissipated. He flapped his wings a few times, lifting him in the air. He landed next to the girls, adrenaline pumping through his veins, a goofy smile still plastered across his face. "So, we just gonna keep chatting all day, or are we gonna fight?"
