November 3rd 2008
"You all everybody! You all everybody! Acting like these stupid people, with expensive clothes..." He was in the back corner of a bar singing his favourite song. Edward was extremely drunk. It was the only way to cope with his parents killing themselves that he had found.
"Well Dave I think thats it for me!" Edward said standing up and speaking to the bar tender. He didnt know his real name
so he had made one up for him. He walked out and started walking towards the hard rock casino.
He could always see what all the people on the poker tables had through there mind. So he knew when to bet and when not to.
He walked straight to the poker tables and placed a 5,000 dollar chip on the table and got it changed into smaller chips. "You gonna win tonight?!" Edward said turning to the person beside him, not really paying attention. He was really looking at their cards.

Rosie had no idea why she had taken herself off to Vegas. Other than she felt like having a bit of fun, and what better place to do that than in Vegas baby?! Tony was doing what ever he was doing for his work and having made sure he was feeling alright, she was decided to have a little me time.
It didn't take too long for Rosie to get through to Vegas, and she began by going into a few clubs and having some drinks. Eventually she ended up going into the hard rock casino, where she thought she would try her luck and see if she could win anything.
She went over to the poker tables, not sure whether she would play, but more interested in watching others. When she got there, she saw a few people there already, one person in particular caught her eye, he had asked the person beside him, if thought he was going to win. So Rosie watched from the side to see what was going to happen. Then from out of nowhere she decided to say:
"Good Luck!" to nobody in particular, but she did happen to be looking at the petite dirty blonde haired guy. She thought there was something familiar about him, but she couldn't place what it was.

Amanda was having the time of her life. She knew it was a good idea to take a break from school. Returning to her old home and finally being able to enter a casino was such a good idea. She had first ventured into the local bars, taking a few shots here and there. Afterward, Amanda ventured into the hard rocks casino. Gambling had always been one of her favorite things to do. She was always good at those slot machines. Although sometimes she wished she was a technopath instead of a muscle memorizer. But hey, she couldn't complain right?
At the moment Amanda was at one of the local poker tables. A guy had come up and asked someone if they were going to win before he joined the table. Amanda smiled. Great, the more the better. Poker had been a hobby of hers and she was great at bluffing. Picking up her card, Amanda grazed through them. Two of clubs, three of hearts, four of spades, six of clubs, eight of hearts. Switching out the eight for another card, Amanda pulled out a seven. She kept smile on her face. She wouldn't be able to win with it, but she could still bluff.
"I raise two hundred." Amanda said, a confident smile on her face. Oh she was so goign to win this.

Edward could hear everyone in the room with ease. He concentrated mainly though on the close few that surrounded him. He could see all their cards in their head. And he obviously had the best hand, two pair.
He heard somebody yell behind him but he didn't pay any attention, he was looking at the girl across from him as she raised two hundred. Edward kept his poker face on and raised another two hundred.
As the rest of the table made their bets he started to listen to the people around him. Only one really caught his attention, it was the girl that called out earlier.
He turned around to look at her, "Can I help you miss? It seems like you cant seem to take your eyes off me?" He said with an eyebrow raised. "Because, ya know I like blonde's" James said turning back to the girl who had raised two hundred earlier.

Jack Cullen, stood over the table, just watching, looking for the right time to join the game. He looked around at the others on the table, some guy seemed to be hitting on the hot blond chick. He sounded pretty slick, too. Why couldn't Jack do that.
As he watched, he was checking out the other blond at the table. He walked over, and sat down next to her, unaware that he was invisible. The thought hit him when he was about to talk, so he walked off into the crowd, trying to blend in the movement so nobody saw him, and walked over, sitting down.
"Hey." He said to her, not very smoothly. "I'm Jack Cullen" he said, smiling. "Who's winning?"

Rosie had just sort of blended into the background at the poker table, watching the people sitting there play. She wasn't really playing herself, she didn't know how to, she just liked watching everybody else play instead. Lost in the game unfolding in front of her, she almost didn't realise the guy she'd been staring at had spoken to her.
However, before she got a chance to reply, another guy pulled up and started talking to the other blonde who had shouted about raising. Rosie turned her attention back to the blonde guy though, and smiled before replying.
"Well fancy that" Rosie began a little sarcastic, but also friendly, "I'm a blonde, what do you know? And I was just thinking I recognised you from somewhere or something, but I can't place where" she explained. She was certain he was some sort of rock star, or had been. Since Rosie had a thing for rock stars that was why she was certain she knew him, however she decided to go on a different tactic.
"Have you been on television or something, I'm sure I know you from somewhere, but I'm a bit lost" she added, as she kept looking at him smiling. Noticing the other guy approaching she acknowledged him by smiling and giving him a quick nod of her head.
[ooc: sorry guys but I just had to do the Lost reference LOL]

Amanda glared at the man who had just called her and raised the pot. Her fingers played with the chips that she had previously won before he joined the table. Most guys wouldn't bother trying to raise another two hundred. She still had six hundred dollars worth of chips left, so she decided to play it safe and just call his.
"It's customary for the guys to show their card first." she challenged. She didn't know what this guy had, but she wasn't going to fall for it. He probably was just trying to bluff his way out like she was. Two guys at the table had folded, but Amanda had her eyes on the guy in front of her.
Then someone came up to her, trying to flirt with her. Amanda just smirked. "Sorry baby, but I'm not interested," she said, blowing him off. "As for the winner. Well, we'll see."

She just, brushed him off.
Invisible, again He thought to himself, and started to get up. He walked off, and into another part of the room, disappearing to the human eye, again.
He walked over, and sat at the opposite side of the table to the blond girl who brushed him off.
He watched her, and looked around, he walked around the table, looking at the others cards. When he looked at what they had, he walked over to her, leaning down next to her ear and whispering.
"The guy over their has 2 pair" He moved away quickly before she realized anything.

Edward watched himself through Rosie's eyes, he could see himself there just sitting there not looking at her. "Now Rosie be careful of what you say, you never know what my response might be" He said winking at her.
"Oh and your original idea was the correct one" He said answering Rosie's thought about him being a rock star. If she hadn't seen him somewhere he was sure she could tell from the black leather he was wearing.
Edward watched as a man walked over, Jack, He could tell from his mind. "Man you have some nasty thoughts!" Edward murmured under his breath. He watched as Jack got blown off and walked away. He payed attention to his mind as he came back looking at everybody's cards. "Hey thats not right you cheat!" Edward said looking up to where he could sense the mind, but no one was there.
"If you tell anybody what I have..." Edward threatened Jack. He watched as he went over and tell Amanda. Edward showed his cards confirming what Jack had said. He collected the pot.
"Well I don't think I'll play why there is a cheat at the table." Edward got up and cashed in his small winnings. "Oh and Jack if you wouldn't mind following me outback!?" Edward said to the empty space behind Amanda.
As Edward was walking out he whispered to Rosie "Want to get a drink later?" He didn't have to hear what she said because he could hear it in her thoughts.

Rosie put her hand up to her mouth when he spoke to her, he said her name, how could he have said her name, she hadn't told him her name, had she? No, she definitely didn't remember introducing herself to anybody at this table. She opened and closed her mouth a few times.
"How did you know my name? I don't recall telling you my name" she said a little defensively, but actually curious as well, as she smiled at him, she liked the look of him, and one way or another she was going to get him. She didn't care if she had to get him through that other blonde, whom wasn't paying attention to her and noticed how she had brushed off the other guy who had spoken to her. This amused Rosie somewhat.
Then she watched the other guy, it looked like just about everybody here had some sort of ability and they weren't for keeping it to themselves. From what she could tell the rocker had telepathy, how else could he have known her name, and then the other guy, what did he have? How could he have known the other guy's cards unless he'd seen them, he must have invisibility or something.
"I thought you were a rock star, or were at some point, I'm sure I've seen you, or chased you around or something" she said, and then, hang on, she hadn't mentioned anything about him being a rock star, she'd only thought it. He definitely had telepathic powers.
"Actually I never even mentioned about you being a rock star, you have some sort of ability don't you? You're just like me" she said, and gave him a smouldering look. Next thing she knew the cute guy was getting up from the table talking about not playing with cheats and asking the other guy who hadn't spoken his name to follow him.
When he then whispered to her to go for a drink with him, a smile spread across Rosie's face, "Try stopping me" she said looking him up and down and licking her lips a little at the thought of the drink and spending some one on one time with him.
[ooc: does that mean you're wanting a separate thread - or still carrying on in this one? Doesnt take much but am confused lol]

Amanda jumped when she heard someone whisper in her ear. What was that just now? Was she hearing things or what? Shaking her head, Amanda returned to the game. It was then her opponent started going crazy. She watched him throw down his cards and and take the pot. He then went on about not playing with cheats. He was then calling out someone that had been next to her before hitting on the other blond.
Amanda was confused. What in the world was going on here? Who was next to her? What was that guy raving about? Why did she just loose four hundred bucks?! Frowning, Amanda got up from her seat. She didn't like being confused. She had a bad rep about being a dumb blond already. Then a thought hit her. No one had ever called her bluffs before. She had copied the poker faces of the best poker players out there. No normal man could see through her poker face...unless they weren't normal.
"He cheated." she whispered to herself. Fuming, Amanda stalked after the guy. She didn't know how he cheated or what power he had, but Amanda hated being cheated. "Hey. You, mister!" She called after the guy. "Don't you call me a cheat when you were the one cheating!" she yelled.

WHAT?!?
Somehow, the rock star knew he was there. Somehow, it was like he was...reading his mind. He just got up and left, asking him, Jack? Invisible Jack, to follow him. For an odd reason, he felt as if this guy wanted a fight, and for some strange reason, Jack followed. Maybe it was because he thought he had an advantage, with his invisibility.
But then again, this guy seemed to know he was their before, perhaps he would know where he is again. How was this guy knowing.
Suddenly, he wasn't the only one following this guy, the girl, Amanda, who he was hitting on before, started to follow to, and didn't see him, almost running into him. He reached out his arm to stop her from going any further, accidently grabbing her chest, and quickly jerking his hand backwards. "Sorry" He said, not knowing if she heard him, and ran away, following after 'Mr.Rockstar'

Amanda was on a rampage. How dare he ignore her. She was going to give him a piece of her mind. Just as she got closer to this rockstar wannabe, Amanda felt something touch her. It wasn't a little touch on the side or anything like that. No, it was a full on grab. Something had just cupped a feel with her. She stood their shocked. She almost missed a voice apologizing to her. What was going on her? Why was she hearing things and why did she just feel like someone tried to grope her?
Then it came to her. She'd seen enough movies to know when someone was hearing and feeling things, it was one of two things. A ghost or someone was invisible. And seeing as how Amanda didn't believe it ghosts, she went with the second option. Following the rockstar outside, Amanda burst into the scene.
"Ok, I don't know what's going on here, but someone better explain things to me right now before I start kicking ass." she challenged.

Edward listened to Amanda's thoughts, She is rather annoying. He lead them all out to a back alley. "Oh now come on Mr. Invisible show us your real face. And then while your at it why don't you tell them how you cheated?" He talked to empty space where Jack was.
"Oh and he is the one that felt you up so go ahead and murder him. Honestly I dint mind." He said watching Amanda.
He looked around for Rosie not knowing if she had came.

When they stepped outside, Mr.Rockstar started having a go.
Who don't you show your face.
Well, if that's what you want He turned his head visible, so it looked as if it was just floating in mid air.
"How did you know where i was?" He said, turning fully visible.
He turned and looked at the other, blond girl.
"Oh, and I didn't grope you, well, not intentionally. I tried to stop you from going any further, and you kinda, just, ran into me." He said, smiling innocently.
"Maybe I should just... leave" He said as he turned invisible and moved out of the line of fire, making sure she couldn't hit him
