What The Luck!?

"I can't believe my child has turned from everything I have taught him and become so dangerous." The woman that spoke was a small and short woman with little blue flowers growing in her hair.

"No mom! It was an accident. I still can't control my strength yet but I have improved a lot. I swear it wasn't like that at all. Asher, please tell me mom I didn't mean to hurt you." Jackson had crumbled like a sand castle in the tides. His mother may not be intimidating or large but her false tears were enough to melt Jackson.

"I am fit as ever. Don't worry. If push comes to shove I am the one who can beat up on Jackson. We actually have been showing him a few tricks in martial arts to help him understand his body. They are super basic self defense and foot work but I promise they will help." Asher made a show of flexing and hopping around a little.

Jackson's mother laughed slightly. "Then I will take your friend's word for it. But what is this about you learning martial arts? Will you be fighting? I don't need a hoodlum in my house." Jackson was grabbed away by his mother and soon found himself being scolded on a picnic blanket some ways from the group.

" Oof, who would have thought Jackson could be lead around so easily." Art was not sure what to think. But it did make sense that a mother could have such an effect on any child of theirs.

"Louis, Sammy, come on over here and help this old man meet your friends!" This shout came from a skinny and very elderly man with cloudlike hair. The more Asher looked at it the more he realized that the old man actually did have a beard and head of hair made of real moving clouds.

"Yes grandfather!" The twin chorus of Sammy and Louis came abruptly as they rushed to the old man's side. Sammy took his arm while Louis was sure not to touch him. It seemed that he was the only one warry due to his super power.

"Louis, didn't you burn off your energy this morning? You can control the small shocks now, you help grandfather." Sammy quickly saw this and pushed Louis to take the lead as he had used to do.

"Of course!" Louis had forgotten he could do this now and stood confidently while taking his grandfathers' arm.

"The boy who was pulled off was Jackson, this is Laura and Asher. They both came early to camp due to special selection. The last two are Jane and Art. They are my classmates as well as friends and study group partners." Louis was much more full of confidence than usual.

"You and Sammy managed to gain a study group and they have the members of those that were selected due to their above average performance? I am impressed. I am glad you were able to come here. Please treat my little monsters well. They may fight like brother and sister but they are kind at heart."

The grandfather started to direct the embarrassed Sammy and Louis away to sit down. "Well, that was something. I can see that their family has more than two weather related super powers. That's pretty amazing." Jane was looking at the old mans' cloudy hair and beard as he walked away wondering what other weather related powers may have been passed down to them.

"I guess we won't be seeing much of them for the rest of the day." Asher realized that his friends being dragged away by family meant that they would most likely be too busy to hang around with them. But that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

"Asher!!!!! Ronan!!!!" The loud boom of Caras' voice shocked every single adult and even toppled some of the campers on the opposite side of the wall in shock. Asher himself just dropped his head and wished he could forgo the embarrassment that was about to befall him.

"Why didn't you come to find me? You're just over here hanging out with your friends? And how were you the first ones over the wall, don't tell me you snuck around?" Cara was full of energy and was bombarding Asher with too many questions.

"Hello Cara, it is nice to see you. Asher told us you would most likely be the one to come so your parents could have a day with each other." Jane was sweet as ever and completely stole the show.

"Hi Jane, These two didn't try and snatch your points right? If they held you back even a little I can make the morning work outs much harder." Cara worried that the two boys had left Jane in the dust but after a quick talk Jane had convinced Cara that everything was fine.

"So, Mom and Dad are off on a date to some movie then dinner. It will just be us. I want you to show me what you guys have been up to. Oh, and I met your mother Jane. She is under the tree over there waiting for you. I told her I would send you her way."

"Mom is here!" Jane instantly became much more animated than she was before. The weight of her worried was off her shoulders and she knew that she wouldn't need to worry about her father being over protective and trying to keep her away from boys.

Without another word, Jane had rushed off to meet her mother. "It's just us now, I will text Jane that we are going to head to the sparring field since I can't imagine you want to go anywhere else." Asher accepted the fact that Cara was most likely going to force him and Art to go and show off the results of their week long training. For Asher, the additional three days was even more reason to test him.

"Then off we go, no reason to wait around." Art was ready to be on the way. Cara knew that his family wouldn't be coming and chose not to bother about it.

However, there was a soft whispered voice from behind them, "Not even going to say good morning to your mother?"
