What The Luck!?

"Is it alright for us to explore the inside more?" Jane wanted to see what other interesting things were laying around. After seeing the specialized vehicles for rescue she started to realize that this was much more than a storage cabin. This was a place full of endless teaching material that would only help her become a better hero.

"Don't go trying to move anything without my help. There are some dangerous and heavy items in here. But yes, feel free to explore and don't be afraid to call me for help. My name is Jim and I am the taff member in charge of this area all year round."

"Nice to meet you, Jim." The two said this in unison while walking inside the storage cabin to explore for more interesting items.

The two hadn't even entered toward some of the shelving units when they noticed there was a hang glider strung up on the ceiling. It was made to show that it was a rescue glider having red and white stripes.

"How would this even be used as a rescue item/" Asher couldn't find a time when he would realistically need a glider like this for any form of rescue.

"What do you do when no one with a flying super power or a helicopter isn't available? Could you just climb a tree and hope that you survey the area well from there? Or would it be better to find a high point and slowly glide over a large area to find anyone who may be in need." The staff member had a good point and was met by a look of amazement from Asher.

"Scuba gear? This is so cool" Jane had found a set of scuba gear. It was set up on a mannequin so that they functions and gear were all easily displayed.

"Yes, that is the teaching set for our underwater classes. We hold those on the other camps but will still offer the same class on the basics here. Many people gain super powers that are used within or with water ut they can not breath under the water themselves." The staff member Jim was already giving them the answers to the questions they had. T seemed that he wasn't content with just waiting around the entrance and was going to walk with them instead.

"Oh no...It's the evil chicken." Asher was stopped in his tracks looking at a partially disassembled robotic chicken.

"You've played with Lapis's little toy I take it?" Jim looked rather unhappy as he said this.

"This is the one you told us that gave you, Laura, and Jackson so much trouble?" Jane had only been told the story but she was sure that this robotic chicken wasn't so intimidating.

"It gives many staff and camper trouble. When she first bought the thing and decided to modify and add a different program to it we were all tormented. Jim was looking more and more stressed by the monte as he remembered everything that he had been through.

"I feel like you make have dealt with more than chasing it…" Asher had a theory that he had been through a small dose of what evil the chicken was actually used for.

"Yes, it has been years so torture. Lapis designed it and gave it programs that she didn't always turn off before napping or starting a class. One which was for it to try and steal shoelaces. She was younger then but she thought it would help campers be more vigilant. Instead, it just tormented the staff endlessly." Jim shivered at the memory of always wearing his boots without shoelaces.

"If I take a part and lose it somewhere would I get in trouble?" Asher said this like it wasn't going to be a big deal.

"Unfortunately the last time we tried that Lapis built it so that it wouldn't need the part we took. Next thing we knew it was going around with an added voice feature squawking at everyone when our back was turned. I'm pretty sure someone had a heart attack." Jim was about to say more but realized it was just going to stress him out.

"I think we should move on then." Jane noticed the two getting gloomier and decided she wanted to keep the energy up and explore more. "Let's look at those shelves over there. I think I see some weights." Jane knew that Asher had been wearing the ankle and wrist weights hen training and thought she saw some similar items.

Asher was glad to be pulled from the evil robotic chicken and followed Jane. He was surprised to see that there were many hanging weighted pieces of clothing. "These are awesome. They are basically shirts but...This says it weighs seventy pounds?!"

"Wait, what?" Jane and Asher were trying to grab the tags and see if they are correct and found that it was indeed true.

"Yes, they actually weigh that. We have a very unique contract with a company that produces these weighted pieces of clothing. The shirts they make started off for those with zero gravity powers and eventually became training equipment. The super dense metals they use are made using some super powers and heavy equipment." Jim always found it fin to explain the things made for someone's specific super power that turned in to some amazing training equipment.

"If I wear this shirt here it is an added fifty pounds. How many points do I need to spend to use this for a few days?" Asher was not foolish enough to believe that these wouldn't cost him points to use. He wanted to wear one of the lighter shirts so he could constantly train over the next few days and be much stronger when he left camp.

"Point? What the heck are you talking about. Just to use equipment here doesn't cost you points. Most of this stuff is educational and the equipment is adding challenges to the things you already do. We won't charge you any points. Just use them safely and sign them out with me." Jim had this reaction often. But he made sure that when he told campers this he would remind them there were consequences if he didn't get them back.
