What The Luck!?

Chapter 273 - 273. Last Hour



"If I run another lap or sprint another step I will die!" Art had lost all focus on super power training at all after the cardio session. Cara had set them up to do many basic jogging laps. Sprints were sprinkled throughout the entire thing along with speedy knew raises. Jumping jacks and many more fast paced exercises. 

"I agree, no more laps. I think my sweat is sweating." Asher was the second to agree that cardio was too brutal. He had thought that it would just be simple cardio work outs but instead, they were in constant motion. Cara's work out was effective but exhausting. 

​​

"Why do you guys look so tired? Did you not eat well?" Jackson was the only one not affected at all by the work out. 

"Your super power is too much. You have that top human body and after all that you aren't even sweating at all?" Sammy was fairly impressed that Jackson out of everyone was the one that was fine. It didn't make sense since he had been the kid who gardened and didn't even think about working ut. But now, he was super fit and ready for all kinds of physical hardships. 

"Ah, sorry. I forget that others aren't the same way as my body is. I really don't know how different it is since I didn't work out or do much before. Honestly I still accidentally pull things up that I shouldn't in the garden because of my strength." Jackson had been embarrassed by the differences since thus had started to happen. 

"I never thought that some underclassmen would ever be able to out run me. The only people in my grade have super powers that speed them up temporarily. But yours are all the time." Cara had been confident that she could even beat Laura because Laura needed to stop to eat and replenish he energy. It only made sense that Cara would be able to get ahead. 

"Hey, I know we should be trying to spar with super powers but I have a lot of lightning built up from this last hour and I think it's too dangerous. I also want to try and tests making electrical currents so I figure I can go on my own." Louis didn't want to interrupt but he wanted to make his case to train his own super power. 

"Oh, I want to watch. I saw you frying some leaves earlier to try to control it better." Sammy had caught Louis practicing while he waited for her to get ready to leave. 

"I was just trying that to see how it would work. I can make it only zap little parts now. The more I practice the better." Louis was embarrassed as well but not so much that he would refute it. 

"Why not get some little circuit board with light bulbs and try and manipulate the lightning to light them up. If you are too strong you will break the light bulb or fry the board. I bet you can even get really tough conduction wire and move to more sensitive." Jane thought that this would be the easiest option. The modern technology class they were taking could have a ton of inventions or students that would live to create an invention for this. It was an ideal challenge for them. 

"Yeah man, just let us figure it out. We will have something good for you in a few days." Art was on the same page and Louis couldn't explain how blessed he felt to have friends willing to help him out like this. 

"What about you guys? What will, you work on?" Louis didn't want to take up all the attention and knew others might be considering other ways to train their powers. 

"I want to try shifting again. I did it earlier because I wanted to have the time to rest so to speak before trying it again." Jane had been waiting for this and knew it could be a very harsh second attempt. 

"Are you sure you should? What if you're too tired? We can set mores tuff up so you can rest after?" Jane was instantly blushing seeing that Asher jumped right in to worrying. It made the rest of the group roll their eyes. 

"If Jane can't handle it you get to carry her on your back all the way home. That's that." Cara ended it there without any effort. Asher and Jane had no response and just accepted it because they knew that Cara would jump in again. 

I want Jackson to help me get high in the air. He can work on his muscle control and I can get higher in the air to try and fly." Sammy had the grand idea that if Jackson threw her as high as he could she would be able to fly in the air or at the very least be able to learn to float down better.

"I can do that for you. If you fall I can do my best to catch you too." Sammy was very excited to try and immediately started to bounce in place. Small breezes radiated from her with every bounce. 

"Huh, do you think if you are in a better mood you would have a better chance flying? You're making a little breeze in excitement soo, maybe you'll actually fly today." Louis was encouraging since he had noticed that the larger breezes or gusts of wind would always come when she was affected emotionally. Not to mention he spent the most time around her out of everyone. 

"Yes! Then I will fly today!? The breeze was slightly stronger and Jackson decided that they should move to a more open area so that there was no one in the way or danger while Sammy tried this. 

"What are you planning Cara?" Asher wasn't sure what his sister was planning to do. She had been training with her super power more than anyone else because she was older. 

"I will sit in the middle of the gym and whisper. If you hear what I say, shout back. I need to improve my fine control over the sound waves to add distance. I can influence frequency and decibels but range is harder." Cara wanted to be in a situation where she could secretly whisper to someone from very far away. Since her goal was law enforcement that would mean she could send messages to her coworkers while in situations that required absolute silence. 

"That just leaves Art, what will you practice?" Cara didn't want to see anyone that was slacking and when she looked at Art who had yet to tell them what he was doing she knew that she might need to give him a push. 

"Well…" Art looked around and knew that Jane and Asher would most likely be together because Jane was going to attempt to shift again which would possibly take her out of the game for a little while. But he needed something to answer with. "I will help Asher out. He is going to practice with Jane if she can handle it, but after he can spar with me. We filled these gloves with lead you know so the inside can speed up my punches." 

Art was slightly awkward while saying this which made Cara squint her eyes but she didn't say anything. Art was glad there were no questions since he didn't have any other ways to spin his tale. "Yup, that's perfect. I will need a little more help. I doubt Jane will have the energy for the full hour." 

"You're right. I will need time to rest and if I want to be able to jog or walk home. I don't want to force Asher to carry me if I don't have to."  Jane caught on and supported Asher and Art making everyone stop their curiosity. 

"Then let's get to it. We have an hour to use then everyone is left to their own personal training." Cara was losing the feeling of being warmed up from standing still. She knew that she could focus and do squats while trying to send her voice farther.

"Thanks for the back up. I wasn't sure how to say I was going to be doing word tricks with my gloves." Art was a little off after having to lie a little. 

"Don't worry, I actually think it will be better to have more help since I don't know how long I will be able to hold my shift. My super power is harder to deal with than I thought lately. I tried shifting for a second time the other day but I woke up after falling on my bed. I think I wasn't prepared enough." Jane knew that she needed to be in the best possible condition to shift and if she didn't have the proper energy she would pass out. 

"Just trust us. We will be here the entire time and make sure you have something to snack on right after. It might be the best time to take the vitamin pack after you switch back to not using your super power fully." Asher and Art gave her big thumbs up to try and get Jane more relaxed. They would make sure she didn't fall at all.
