10th November 2008
After the night at the movies, Carla had returned back to Bruce's house for a drink, and while she was there, took a massive migraine headache and passed out. As she began to wake up, she looked around and began to wonder where she was. Nothing was familiar and her head still ached. Then she realised what had happened.
She must have passed out while having a drink at Bruce's apartment. She peered at the clock, it was almost 9am, that meant she hadn't been home all night. Sam would be kicking furious, and no doubt come round and kill Bruce. She sat up on the bed, and looked at the other side, but she was alone. He must have slept on the sofa or something, so that was a bit of a relief in itself.
Her head was aching, a dull ache, she began to rub her eyes, and tried to get out of the bed to get ready to go home, but as she did so, she stumbled and fell onto the floor and twisted her leg, and landed awkwardly on her ankle, spraining.
"Fuck!" she shouted, and then put her hand up to her head, "Ow, hurts, head hurts, ankle aches" and felt like crying.

He heard movement, and decided he could go in. "Carla? Are you decent in there?" He asked her, not wanting to be rude. He grabbed up a plate of food that he had made for her, complete with orange juice, some toast, eggs and bacon, he thought that might help her head.
"I cooked you some stuff" He said as he opened the door and walked in, sitting down on the bed.
"After a drink last night, you just passed out. I moved you into my bed, and I took the couch. It's ok, I don't mind. I thought about calling Sam, but I thought I would leave that one to you, some how I think, it will be better if you call him"

James stared at the building in front of him. He couldn't believe he had finally tracked him down. James had started to go crazy thinking that he would never see his brother again, but now he had found him.
James quickly hurried to his brothers room. He had waited so long for this meeting. What am I going to say? He thought as he walked down the corridor. He got to the door and paused. He didnt know wether to knock or just walk in and surprise him.
He decided to just walk straight in, they were brothers after all. He entered to the smell of eggs and bacon but no-one in sight. He walked into the lounge, somebody had obviously been sleeping on the couch.
Thats when he heard the voices. He couldnt tell where they were coming from. Not knowing what to do he decided to sit on the couch and call out, "Helllllllllo!?!? You there brother?!?!"

"I'm decent yeah, I'm just not too good still" she shouted through the door to him, and then put her hand up to her head again. Then he walked into the room holding a tray full of breakfast, the smell of it made her hungry, but she was still on a heap on the floor.
"That is so kind of you Bruce" Carla said softly, from her current position on the floor. "I've kind of hurt myself though, can you help me up please?" she asked him, as she looked at him sitting on the bed.
"I know what's wrong with me Bruce, I took a migraine, and the drink didn't help it one little bit. I take them often with the ability I have" she explained, as she continued to hold onto her head which was banging with pain. She smiled at him as he spoke about bringing her through to his bed and wondering about phoning Sam.
"Thanks for bringing me through here, and glad you didn't mind having the couch" she said softly, taking her hand and wiping the tears away from her face, which had started because of the pain she was in. She tried to get back up from the floor again, and again fell down.
"I'll phone Sam in a bit" she said annoyed that she was still on the floor. Then she heard a shout come through from what seemed the other side of the room. "You have a brother?" she asked incredulously, wanting to meet him.

Brother? He thought to himself. He seemed to recall having a twin brother, who left when he was around seven, but not much memory of that. That was about ten years ago.
I heard he was dead? How could he survive on the streets at seven!?
He looked at Carla, who was asking him about a brother. "I'm not sure, I did. But, he's... dead." He said to her. He conjured a ball of fire in his hands, and walked into the next room.
"Carla, stay in here"
"I have no brother!" He yelled at the man entering, "My brother is DEAD!" He threw the ball of fire at the man.
He threw more and more at the man, attacking non stop. Surely, that would stop him.

No brother? Oh this might be harder than I thought... James thought to himself. He saw that Bruce was getting angry, Ha, I wonder if he has any powers.. .
Bruce conjured a fire ball. "Oh look at the little toughy", James said hiding his surprise. So he had one of my powers? How controlled is he? He thought.
As Bruce started throwing fireballs James used his powers to make them smaller and smaller till they were nothing before they hit him. "C'mon man don't you recognise your own flesh and blood?" James said going to the fridge and grabbing a drink.

What!? His powers? How did he do that?
"Your talented, I'll give you that. Try this!" He conjured a huge fireball, and flung it at this person.
The guy seemed talented, and fairly strong, Bruce wondered what other things he could do.
"Own Flesh and Blood! Sorry, I'm not falling for any of your tricks" The man walked to the fridge, obviously not afraid, and pulled out a beer.
"Thats my beer!"
Bruce decided that fire wasn't working, he moved the earth around them, and made a suit of rock on this intruder. The rock went up to the mans shoulders, covering his entire body, except for his head.

James let out a sigh as he saw what was coming, Bruce conjured a huge fireball and flung it at James. James just caught it like it was nothing, he smothered it with his other hand.
Oh c'mon I thought he would have more than that!!
He felt the rock slide up his body and encase him as he was about to open the beer. He just yawned and flexed his muscles under the rock, really he was using his mind but the effect looked like he had super strength as shards of hard rock went everywhere.
He used a quick swift of his hand to move the air that opened his beer. "You want one? Lets sit down and talk about this..." He walked over to the table.
"Anything else you want to show me?" James said with a sarcastic sigh.

James blew up the hard rock casing like it was nothing. He must have super strength!
"Talk about this! Are you kidding me. I just wanna watch you burn!" He was getting a lot angrier at this intruder, entering his house and claiming to be his dead brother. The anger built up inside him, and he charged up another ball of fire.
Instead, Bruce's whole body was encased in flames, he looked at his arms and body in awe.
"Can you do that, smart ass" He laughed, hoping to god that he actually cant.

What the Fuck is that!! James stared at Bruce who was incased in fire. "Oh please don't make me laugh!" James said sarcasticly hiding his awe. He stared at Bruce wondering what else he was capable of. James conjured some water on top of Bruce and let it drop. Smothering the fire that was all over Bruces body.
He placed his beer on the table wanting to save it for later. As he walked over to Bruce he said simply, "Brucey boy, you cant beat me... Just face it we're bro's!"
James gave Bruce a toothy grin as he turned around to see a girl in the doorway. That was when it went black.

When Carla had questioned Bruce about the supposed brother who had entered his living room he had told Carla to say where she was. With not feeling too good at that moment, she wasn't ready to go anywhere. So she pulled herself up off the floor and sat on the bed, until Bruce came back in to see her.
However, a good few minutes later, Bruce hadn't come back through to see her and she'd heard some loud noises coming through from where Bruce had went. She couldn't stand it any longer. She eased herself off the bed slowly, and hobbled out of the bedroom through to where Bruce had went earlier.
Her ankle was still very sore, and her head also still had a dull ache. However she carried on through and stood to watch in the doorway of the scene unfolding in front of her. Carla felt it was getting a little bit out of control, and out of fear for the safety of Bruce, Carla couldn't help what happened next. She used her telekinesis ability and lifted up the beer bottle which had been left on the table and moved it across the air toward the other guy's head and smacked it across his head.
No sooner had she done that however, Carla began to feel weak again, "I don't feel so good Bru..." she couldn't even finish the sentence, as she slumped to the floor.

A bottle flew in the air, and smacked the intruder on the head. Bruce looked to the side, and saw Carla, collapsing.
"Carla!" He yelled as he ran as fast as he could over to her, catching her before she hit the ground.
"Carla? Carla!" He said, as he rocked her gently, trying to get her to come around. "Can you hear me, Carla? What is happening to you!?" He rocked her more and more. He lifted her up, and placed her back on his bed, tucking her in, before walking out into the other room.
The intruder was sprawled on the floor. He lifted him up, and dragged him into a chair. He got some rope, and tied the intruder up.
"Who are you?" He said, as he knocked the intruder in the face, when he came around.

James woke up tied in a chair with his brother yelling in his face. How am I ment to show this guy that I am his brother.
"I'm your brother. Always have been always will be" James said with a sigh, he knew it wasnt going to be that easy. I cant believe he went with rope. He can't be very smart. He created a small friction with his fingers that burned a small hole in the rope. He didn't move though, becuase he didnt want to scare his brother.
"So how can I convince you brother?" James said with another sigh.

Carla couldn't believe she had passed out again, although she should know better than to use her ability while she was recovering from one of her ability migraine headaches. She had no idea how long she'd been out for, but she remembered being caught by very strong arms and she was certain she'd heard someone shout her name a few times. But it was almost like it was way in the distance.
The next thing she knew she began to wake up and she was in Bruce's bed again. She looked around, but he wasn't in the room with her. Then she heard confrontation again. She got out of the bed and went back into the living room where she saw Bruce yelling at the intruder while he seemed to be tied up.
"Bruce" she began, in a quiet voice, "I shouldn't use my powers when I have one of these migraine headaches, can you not shout at him please?" she almost begged as she sat down on one of the other chairs in the living room.
"Birth certificate might be a good idea" Carla said to the intruder when he asked how he could prove that he and Bruce were brothers. She had to remember and contact Sam as well, he'd be so worried about her.

"Well, I don't know. How about telling me your name, first!" Bruce said to the intruder, still unknown what his name was. This guy, obviously, was already getting out and loosening the ropes.
Carla walked back in, and asked Bruce to calm down.
"Yeah, OK, Carla"
"Birth certificate sounds like a good idea." he said, turning to the intruder. "Got one on you?" Then he turned back to Carla. "Perhaps you should call Sam, and explain what has happened?"
