She focused and slowed time, poking the sword at the bullet, splitting it.
"What we're to happen if you touch a bullet moving in slow-mo?"

-
"It'd feel the same as if it were moving at that pace."
-
"So it would hurt or wouldn't?"
-
"Most likely. It would just be moving slower. I'd advise against it."
-
"Okay." Time went to normal.
-
"Had enough?"
-
"I could probably go through more. If you're willing."
-
"Hmm. We'll try one more thing. It's called a quantum dash. A short range teleport. Good for getting out of sticky situations. This is all about envisioning. Imagining yourself in the Place you want to be. But have to slow time to do it." [b] Lance backs across the room and slows time, breaks into a jog, and in a flash of black-purple, he is 30 feet away from where he was.[/b]
-
"Short range? That looked a bit far than short range."
-
"Yeah, well, Psions can teleport hundreds of feet. It's short in comparison."
-
"Huh."
-
"You don't know what a Psion is do you?"
-
"Oh I know. Brief definition anyway. They use something called… Kap-7 or something."
-
"Yeah. Telekinetic beings, Kap-8 as fuel. They can prove to be... [b] Lance shudders.[/b] destructive."
-
"So I've heard."
-
"If you meet a Psion named Phantym, steer clear."
-
"Why?"
-
"Because he's deadly. He tried to bring a building down on top of me."
-
"Was it Vendetta or…"
-
"No. It was a bounty we were doing, and he wanted the rewards. So he tried to kill everybody."
-
"Huh."
-
"Yeah. Guy's bad news." [b] Lance stretches his arms and yawns.[/b] "Sorry Serena, I'm kinda tired. We can continue this some other time. Do you need a ride home?"
-
"I can walk."
-
[b] Lance ran a hand through his hair.[/b] "If it's all the same to you, I'd rather give you a ride home."
-
"Okay then."
-
[b] He leads you back through his apartment, to outside where his Dradon sits with two helmets.[/b] "Here," [b] He tosses you a helmet as he puts his on and climbs onto the bike[/b]
