It was a nice, cool Saturday afternoon. The first week of school had already gone by, and everyone was hanging outside. Well, almost everyone. Logan was stuck working in the arena. Even worse? "Wait... what?" he asked, staring at Billy, another guy who worked there. "You heard me. You have to clean the bathrooms." He shoved the mop and bucket towards the teen, before heading towards the exit. Logan took the wop and winced. He hated cleaning the bathroom. The boy swore they made him do it on purpose.
He dragged the bucket and mop to the bathroom door. But he didn't open it. He just stood there, looking at it. I don't want to go in there... he thought, slowly opening the door. He looked around. The bathroom was surprisingly clean, for an arena bathroom. All he had to do was mop up the floor, clean the mirrors and take out the trash. Easy, right?

Hunter stepped off the bus, hands in his pockets. He was off to check out the stadium for the upcoming game against the cities rivals. He was eager to see if the seats his dad managed to get him and his friends were good enough too see the game. He remembered last time, on late notice, they had to sit all the way up near the back wall of the arena. He headed towards the big revolving doors of the stadium, showing the security guards a pass to let him in. He headed through the various walkways and doors, heading past closed food stands and carts. He looked down at his tickets ,and headed into one of the tunnels leading to the many seats.
Hunter seemed satisfied. Third row near the south endzone. He had finished what he needed to do, so he thought he could og to the bathroom and head out to a Mcdonalds and grab lunch. He headed into the bathrooms, hoping nobody noticed he was in there. He looked at the mirrors, and heard someone else inside there as well as he entered. "Anyone in here?" he asked, peeking around the corner. What Hunter saw surprised him. "Logan! What brings you down here bro?" he asked his friend.
ooc: do they know about each others powers?

OOC: I think it'd be funner if they didn't know... but sort of suspected it instead. Logan looked up from his trash-bag and smiled. Hunter, one of his friends, was standing in the doorway. "Hey man! How's it going?" he asked, taking the trash out of the trash-can. "I'm working, sadly. Trying to save up for a car." Logan smiled just thinking about it. Currently, he took the bus everywhere. And he had no problem with it. Unless he was late, and had to either wait another 30 minutes for the next one, or walk home. Either way, it wasn't fun.
He wiped his hands on his pants and frowned. "This is not how I want to spend my Saturday afternoon...". He put the mop back into the bucket and leaned against the nearest sink.

"Its going good. Im ready for the game, the seats are actually good this time" Hunter joked. He too needed a car, but he knew it was eaiser just to fly. But also hard to hide from others. "Yeah, a car would be nice. What kind do you plan on buying?"he asked, leaning on a bathroom stall. He wondered how long he could keep up hiding his powers from his friend. He let the thought float out of his head.
"Dude, can't they make you wash windows or something? This is sick" Hunter said. And he thought his job was hard, cleaning up doggy doo and sweeping up bid seed. "Hey, man after this, we should go do something cool" he suggested.

"I was thinking about a convertible or something. Anything that gets me from point A to B."
he said, crossing his arms. Teleportation could get you form point A to B in a few seconds, but someone could see you. And that wouldn't be good. He looked at the mop and smirked. "I think they enjoy making me do this stuff... They don't have to. But hey, work is work." He kicked the bucket away form his, and it rolled across the floor. It hit the wall, and a small amount of water spilled out. Logan stared ta the water and smiled. If anyone was looking close enough, you could see the water swaying back and forth, very slightly. He looked away, and the water stopped. He didn't want Hunter to find out. Sure, thy were friends and all... but would they still be? After he knew Logan had superpowers? "We should. I just have to drop this stuff off at the cleaning supplies closet, and then I'm done!"[/blockquote][/blockquote]

"A convertible. Nice" Hunter said. He imagined Logan driving around with it at school, all the ladies swarming to him. He smiled and let out a small laugh. "I would like a truck." He leaned against a bathroom stall. "Hey, after this maybe we could see a movie or go to the fair" he suggested, loving to ride the roller coaster again and again.
Hunter picked up the soggy mop and bucket filled with mucky water, his face kind of in disgust. "I'll help ya, we'll get out of here faster" He lifted it up, wanting to speed over to the closet and drop it off. But he was in front of Logan, and he couldn't. He waited outside of the bathroom for his friend.

"Let's go to the fair. I wouldn't be able to sit through a movie right now." he said, picking up the Windex and the sponge they gave him. He frowned a little, at Hunter helping him. He didn't mind, but if Hunter stayed in here, he could just teleport to the closet, and walk back. Much faster than both of them walking to the closet and then out of the building. But he dealt with it. No need to raise suspicion.
He walked out of the bathroom and smiled. He stepped in front of Hunter and led the way. After a little while, they were at the closet. He opened the door and shoved the stuff into it randomly. "They can deal with that later" he said in a sing-song voice. He looked to his left and saw the elevators and the stairs. He gulped. He never liked the elevators... The amount of electricity in those made him dizzy, and he just hated them. "We should go down the stairs." he said quickly, looking nervous.

Hunter lifted the bucket up, a little weary of the water. He made sure that he didn't think about his electricty at the moment so he didn't shock himself. He dropped it in the closet along with the stinky mop. He laughed at Logans comment. "Okay, I guess we gotta take the bus. Or a cab" HUnter explained. "I still got money" he reached into his pockets 150 bucks. Good enough for a ride and fair tickets. Plus admission. He dusted his hands on his jeans and headed towards the stadium doors. Man, he could have just flown to the fair. But Logan was his friend, and showing him his powers could ruin it.
ooc: Are they gonna find out about each others powers at the fair?

ooc: Sure! Should someone be in danger and they have to help him/her? Or should it be accidental? Accidental might be more fun... [img src=" "] Logan pulled out his wallet and checked inside. There was 70 dollars in there... plus some extra change. Enough to get to the park and have fun. "I have some too." He shoved his wallet back into his pocket, and followed Hunter. He looked ahead, trying to ignore the elevators right next to him. Okay... he was a little paranoid. But he has heard plenty of horror stories involving elevator accidents. He hasn't been on one since. He smiled, stepping outside of the arena. No more work! For today, at least...

Hunter headed towards a bus stop near the corner, and started to read the schedule on the sign. He checked his cell phone too see what time the next bus would come. "Just a few more minutes" he explained, sitting down on the bench. He hoped it wasn't too busy, and that the photo booth was broken again. If it wasn't he would just short circuit it himself. He smiled. He heard the bus coming, so he stood up and pulled a dollar out of his wallet. He waited near the curb, itching for fun. "C'mon, Logan" he said, motioning his hand towards the bus.

Logan leaned against the bench and smiled. "What should we do first?" he asked, right before the bus came. Hearing it come closer, he stood up and walked to the curb with Hunter. He pulled out a dollar form his pocket and smiled. He motioned for Hunter to get on the bus first.

"Ride the coaster Maybe?" Hunter said, handing the bus driver his dollar as he talked to Logan. "Cause if we eat first, we'll barf" He made his way towards the middle, of the bus, finding two empty seats for them to sit in. He checked his phone, making sure there were no text messages. He got onto the internet while Logan was still boarding, to check if there were any crimes at the moment. He slipped his phone back in his pocket as his search came back clear. He felt better, and waited for his buddy to sit down.

Logan laughed at his friend's comment. However, the driver gave him a weird look. Logan shrugged and handed him the dollar, before walking towards Hunter. He could see his friend had his phone out. Logan sat down next to him and smiled. "What you looking at?" he asked, after his friend put it away. He wasn't trying to be annoying, he was just curious. Every now and then, he checked his computer to see if anything was going on in the city that he should take care of. But Hunter wouldn't do that. He wasn't a hero... was he?

Hunter chuckled with Logan. He noticed him looking at his phone over his shoulder. "Oh. Um just checking the... weather" he fibbed. "Can't ride a roller coaster if it rains."He slipped the phone into his pokect and held his hands together. He played with his thumbs, hoping his friend wouldn't suspect anything. He wondered how Logan would take it if he knew he had powers. Would he get scared? Freaked out? Hunter shook his head.
The bus was only a few minutes away from the amusment park. Hunter could see the ferris wheel peeking over the maple trees. He saw them dancing in the breeze. He hoped it didn't get too windy, as he remembered when the winds got so high once that the park had to be closed. He ofund out leater that the strong winds were the cause of a angry super. As the bus rounded the corner, Hunter felt more excited.

"Very true." he said, leaning towards the window. The bus started again and he smiled. The park was only a few minutes away, meaning the next stop would be there. He looked out the window and saw the ferris wheel. But unlike Hunter, Logan didn't look excited. He absolutely hated heights. Yet he loved roller coasters. On roller coasters it goes so fast, his mind doesn't have time to register that he is indeed high up in the air, and not safely on the ground.
The trees moving in the wind wasn't helping either. What if the wind knocked something over? Then he'd have to go and help, somehow, and reveal to Hunter his powers. That wouldn't be good.
