Feburary 15, 2009
"Only you can stop forest fires!", that phrase has aways annoyed Seth, he prefers, "Only you can start forest fires!" and that was what he was planning to do. He was bored and nothing seemed to be happening at the moment. And what was it to him if people died in the wildfire. Wasn't anyone he knew and if it was he still wouldn't care.
That was the way his brain worked, as he opened his palm fire covered it. Seth actually started to ponder his actions in wasting his precious flames on trees instead of a person. Then the problem was solved by a simple passing of an animal. A deer to be exact wandering around.
It goes toward a lake to drink, he needed to burn something. Sadly for the deer it was the only living thing. Besides trees. With a thrust of his arm flames streamed out toward the unexpecting deer as it was quickly engulped into flames. Watching it burn with no sort of remorse Seth just simply shrugged. Not much of a rush, but it was a rush nonetheless.

Stephen was walking in Central Park, still trying to figure out this weird craving he had, thanks to it he almost killed a few people just to try and see how their ability worked.
Right then his craving wasn't controlling him but he felt a slight ticking in his head, it seemed that it only took over around abilities, other then that it seemed to make it easier to understand things.
Stephen noticed a flash of light and automatically knew it was a fire, he made sure he had his ring on that seemed to allow him to manipulate fire and walked toward, he didn't want anyone to get hurt.
Stephen walked toward the fire and noticed a man there, along with a burning deer. Stephen felt the ticking in his head get stronger as he knew the man had the fire generating ability, he wanted to know how the ability works.
Stephen walked toward the man, ready to fight him, "Hey, what the hells your problem? Why would you kill a deer?"

Hearing someone come Seth was not at all worried nor did he care. He just watched the deer burn the smell of burning flesh circling into the air. Hearing a kid's voice did somewhat catch him off guard as he turned his head to see Stephen. Completely ignoring his question and somewhat irratating rant. Which really was not a rant, but in Seth's mind it was. He just continued to watch the deer burn until the flames disappeared. Once that happened Seth turned his whole attention to Stephen.
"What you have somethin' against killing deer. It makes good meat to eat later." then again Seth did not prefer the taste of deer. Seth also seemed unphased to the fact that Stephen probably just saw him use his ability, "What is a kid like you doing out here, camping for a boy scout badge?" Seth was good at pissing off people as a first impression. Not as if he cared, friends and family were disposable as that deer.
"Now go along and play." he said waving his hand off before walking off. As he walked he threw his hand back and let out another stream of fire toward Stephen. Why not? The smell of human flesh burning was stronger and who knows maybe some bear would come and eat him.

Stephen knew the guy was just trying to piss him off, but he didn't care, he already wanted to fight the guy to see how the ability worked.
Stephen prepared to jump the guy when all of the sudden a stream of fire shot toward him. Stephen teleported away, barely avoiding getting burned.
"Boy did you pick the wrong person to fight." Stephen said with a smirk, he lifted his hand and sent a telekinetic blast at the guy, planning to knock him back a few feet.
Stephen wondered if pyro's could get burned as he walked toward the man, he ignited his hands and sent a continous stream of fire at the man.

Not at all intimadated by the teleportation or the threat. Turning around Seth was planning on saying something really smart ass but couldn't get the chance since he got blasted by something into a nearby tree. Taking the hit he just stood back up. Then seeing fire blow his way he had to grin as he rose his hands up letting his own fire smother out the kid's. "So your a little firestarter too, but then again you got a little bit more than that." Seth replied noting the other abilities.
"I've meet people like you, soon you'll just be consumed with trying to gain more powers kid. Good luck with that in the future." as he said all this his hands lit up with fire. Not like it harmed him it was his own flames. "I guess I can play now. See if you got what it takes to be a firestarter." In all honesty that was the truth. Having to see another person with the ability of pyrokinesis excited Seth.
Only because it allowed him to see if they can handle the beast that was fire. The uncontrollable and always unpredictable element of fire. A smile across his face Seth for a second considered teaching him on how to control it. For second that is.

"I don't need to gain more abilities, I just need to understand them, so far I know that you aren't burned by your own fire but you can be burned by mine." Stephen said, his mind somehow understanding parts of the ability, even then he was begining to figure out more about the ability.
Stephen ignited his hands and sent another stream of fire at the man, this time manipulating it so that it moved around, Stephen was starting to get the hang of the ability.
"Let's see who the better firestarter is then, shall we?" Stephen said as he continued to make the stream of fire.

With a short chuckle Seth accepted the challange his orange fire changed to that of blue. He inhaled deeply before lowering his hands downward to burn the grass around him. Manipulating it with enough power to raise up a shield of flames he smiled. He loved everything about fire even before he had this ability. "Understand it all you want." was all he said. With all of this he smiled the rush of flames and heat surrounding him made him extremely elated.
Loooking up he stared at the Sun then shot a burst of fire at a free branch. A thick one that fell down toards Stephen he did not care if it hit the boy or not. Destruction was his main purpose anything less than that. Well...it would be an insult to his pride. As Seth did that he inhaled deeply the hotter the flames that he was creating now was slightly more harder to control.
And losing control of fire, was never good. At least he was having fun that was always and will forever be good.

Stephen watched as the man began to create a large fire, Stephen was wondering what was doing when all of the sudden a tree limb landed on him and knocked him to the ground.
As Stephen got up he noticed that his shirt had caught fire and it burned him. Stephen ripped off his shirt and took a few steps away from it, cursing himself for not paying attention.
"That's it." Stephen said, he lifted up his hand and sent a powerful telekinetic blast at the man, at the same time he was trying to take control over the fire, he wanted to turn it on the man and show him what it was like to be burned.

A smile crossed Seth's face when the kid got hit and had been set on fire. Sure it was a limited time but still it was just nice to see. Evener more nice to see was the kid wasn't giving up worth anything as he stood back up. He had spunk, Seth liked spunk and power. But he didn't want that power to be used against him as once again an invisible force pushed him.
He was getting tired of that damn force as it sent him flying once more. And a lot farther than last time his legs weren't on the ground. And he prefered them there actually. It was not a good feeling to be out of control! When he finally stopped flying he landed on his stomach. Standing up slowly he shook his head trying to get rid of that whoozy feeling.
Getting up he realized fire was coming toward him which wasn't his fire . Scattering to senses he tripped and the fire ran across his legs. Quickly fire burst from his palms at a constant pace knowing that it won't get hurt. His pants were burnt from the knee and a few inches up. "That little--" standing back up his hands burned blue. Holding his hands together he released them with a thrust sending a large amount of fire toward Stephen and burning bushes.

Stephen felt bad that he was hurting someone, but the feeling was quiocly swept aside by the hunger and the thought that the man seemed to think that shooting living things with his fire was fun.
As Stephen was thinking the man shot a blast of blue fire at him. Stephen didn't react until he felt the fire lick his arms, he immediety teleported away. Stepeh nlooked at his arm and found it burned, Stephen wished he had that healing ability.
Stephen felt the ticking grow with his anger until almost all thoughts excaped his mind except his craving to understand the ability and how he would get it.
Stephen teleported behind the man and sent another telekinetic blast at the man , this time he wanted to pin the man against a tree.

"Damn kid...keep vanishing." Seth said as he walked toward where Stephen once was. "Guess ya' can't stand the heat. Playing with fire is dangerous kid, you should leave it to the pros!" Standing in the spot he looked around. Wondering where the kid could have possibly went off to. That interested him in a way. Then he saw him come from behind.
Once more his telekinesis got the best of him pinned to the tree Seth saw it. The burning hunger in Stephen's eyes. He knew that the kid was no different from everyone else. No matter who had the ability to steal other people's ability, they would gain the hunger. "I knew I was right you can't control it." Seth said with a smirk.

Stephen knew the man was right when he said he couldn't control his hunger. The situation he was in proved it. He had the man pinned against the wall and had an urge to slice his head open and examine his ability, but he wasn't gonna do that just yet. The man seemed to know something about this hunger.
"What the hell do you know about this hunger? How do I get rid of it?" Stephen said, fighting back his hunger, "Tell me or I will rip your head open, and that won't be a good thing for either of us."
Stephen continued to fight back his hunger in his hope that this man could tell him how to lose it, if this man proved otherwise Stephen didn't think he would be able to stop himself from killing the man.

"Psh...what do I know about hunger, well lots. Not the hunger that you feel at this moment, but I know hunger." Struggling to find a relaxing position he grunted show a sign of giving up that false hope. "My hunger is to burn things. Fire loves to feed and I have a constant need to do that. But I think you already know that." he grinned refering to the deer. Yeah he was a bastard and Seth knew that already.
"How do you stop it? Well I know a few ways." he paused for a moment, "You can take a gun to your head pull the trigger, hang yourself, jump off the tallest building you find. Do you kind of get my drift here kiddo?" he asked.

"You really want to die don't you?" Stephen asked, the ticking was coming back now, "Or are you just stupid?"
Stephen was still fighting the hunger, but only half-heartedly. He didn't want to kill anyone, but this guy was making him really angry. Stephen picked up his hand and began to make a cut along the mans head, slowly.
"I don't think ours hungers are the same, you want to burn things, but it seems that's a choice you made. I got mine by mimicking some strange ability and it won't go away. I has this urge to understand abilities, and it seems that slicing peoples heads open is the best way to do it." Stephen said.

"Really want me to answer that one." Seth was definetly not going to die from a kid like him. That would just be a disgrace. As he felt a pain like no other pain he let out a scream. Starting off loud then dying down to a scream that one tries to repress. Seth's head began to leak blood running down from his face to his chin. Panting from the exhausting pain and tiredness he smiles. Yes it takes Seth to smile at a time like this really.
"I know our hungers are different. One is more controllable than another. And it won't be long before you start trying to kill everyone. From strangers to people you love. The only one way to stop is to kill yourself before you kill anyone else. Or isolate yourself forever. Let me know how that works out for ya'" When Seth sets his mind on something say in this situation not dying. He does just that.
Opening both palms red fire blast from his hands outward to young Stephen. While possibly being distracted by that he causes another burst of flames to surround him burning down the tree he was pinned to. Since his own flames won't hurt him just his clothes he'll be alright. Falling down he got up and ran not before saying, "Kill yourself of others. That is the only way of hunger!"
Thinking he ran a pretty good distance away he stopped. Touching his forehead he feels the blood leaking. Holding his hand to his face he just for the Hell of it licked it. "Hmm..." His mind was somewhere else anyway, "That kid won't be able to surpress it, sad. Well almost he would have been a good mind to manipulate."
