Tate sets his full body alight but even I know it will make no difference against the man's waves. He shoots a huge blast of water at Tate, who manages to stand his ground as steam begins to fly up into the air. The man advances and takes another step forward causing more pain for Tate as the water covers more of his body and attempts to put his fire out. Tate falls to one knee but manages to keep his arms stretched out in front of him to protect himself from the deadly water that splashes over him. I can't watch this any longer.

I take off toward the conflict, pushing aside various soldiers and inmates that made their way toward me whether it be to seek protection or start a fight. I ignore them all. I have one thing on my mind. Save Tate. Worry about them later. I burst into the fight and slam myself into the man's side with all my body weight before I can realise what I am doing. We fall to the ground in a heap with me landing on top of his broad chest. He looks up at me in surprise but a smile plays on his lips. I push myself up and scramble off of him as I feel the heat rush to my face. That didn't go to plan. As I begin to apologise in my fit of awkwardness, Tate grabs me by the waist and pulls me behind him before I can embarrass myself further. Why am I always apologising?

The man quickly jumps up from the dirt and produces two orbs of water to surround his hands, he flashes at cocky smile in my direction and anger takes over my regretfulness. I feel my fingers freeze as ice begin to make it's way to my hands and shoot back a fake grin as I feel my powers surge. Before Tate gets a chance to react and I jump in front of him and reach for my Freeze powers, blowing a huge breath of freezing cold air toward the man. He jumps back in surprise but it does little to stop the air from freezing the orbs of water to his hands.

"What did you do!" He exclaims and he looks down at the frozen balls that trap his hands.

"I can't feel my fingers!" He screams and runs toward a tree to smash the ice bulbs on its withering wood but instead ends up hurting his hands more than the ice. He turns back to us, shooting me a glare but doesn't get far as a Spark takes advantage of weakness and shocks him. He falls to the ground with the frozen bulbs still intact. If he can't feel his fingers now I can't imagine what it will be like in the morning.

I whip around to face Tate and smile but stop when I notice his hurried breaths, that fight didn't do him any good.

"Are you ok to keep going?" I ask and reach for his shaking hand. He nods and turns away to gesture to the rest of the group to come forward but I notice the slight stumble in his step and quiver in his voice as he calls out.

Eddie makes it to us first and sets up another field of telekinetic power just in time for Sydney to bound toward us still covered head to toe in mud.

"Hey, thanks for trying to help back there," Tate says to her but doesn't break eye contact with me as he says it. He studies me for any sign of jealousy but I keep a straight face and cross my arms, staring back at him.

"Oh, that?" She says as she giggles and blushes simultaneously, "That was nothing."

She begins to talk about her fall and the Clone or should I say Clones she had to fight to get back here but I ignore her nonsense. Even if it wasn't for the fact that she is wasting time, I would have still ignored her irritating voice at all costs.

"So what next?" Asks Eddie as he stands up straighter and brushes Emmie away who still clings to his leg, "I'm here to help."

I laugh at his sudden urge to assistance us in the fight but know that the next part of the plan requires a different sort of skill. I bend down to reach Emmie's height and take her hands in mine.

"You ready?" I ask but I can already tell the answer from her shinning eyes and excited expression.

"Let's get out of here!" she shouts in trumpet and we all turn our attention to the metal fence.
