Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? 'Cause I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now... [/font][/size] "Come on, Toshi..."
Toshiko gave all her effort into a fifth attempt at trying one of her element techniques. She leaped forward to land on a handstand with her legs spread out in opposite directions in a form of the splits above her. She twisted herself in a circle while holding this position. Water was supposed to be successfully manipulated to where it shot out towards the directions at which her feet had been pointed. It was all to happen in about two seconds, which it did. However, the water had only shot a few inches outwards before meeting the ground in an instant.
She returned to her feet and looked back in irritation. "Yet another failure, brought to you by Yours Truely..." Toshiko muttered with a sigh and rested her hands at her hips. She glanced around at those who surrounded her. Some didn't pay much attention, but others looked at her with an odd look. She avoided their gazes and stalked off to seat herself in the grass. "This is humiliation, practicing in public," Toshiko claimed, rubbing her temples.
She didn't get it... She gave so much effort and concentration into all of it, yet she continued to stand as a failure at her own element. Why did she have to deal with the ridicule of being an inexperienced aquakinetic? It was pointless. Why didn't she develop just as greatly as the others? This made her sneer. If this problem proceeded to embarass her, she wouldn't know what to do. [/font][/size]

( I'M NOT STREET, BUT I DO WHAT I GOTTA DO ) - - - - - - SO WHAT YOU GOT A CREW? I GOT A CREW TOO ! Toby was walking down the beach, shoes in hand, feeling the hot sand beneath his feet. It was the perfect temperature for a perfect day of doing nothing. He started off with a cup of hot chocolate before venturing outside, his typical beanie cap over his head, though the temperature outside made him look insane, and a pair of goggles slung sideways on top. The goggles were his personal fashion statement, as well as necessary gear for him to use his manipulative powers as an aquakinetic. The goggles helped him see the water particles in the air, as well as different concentrations of water. But, above all, his goggles were a chick magnet. As was he.
Or, so he believed.
Toby's parents were out of town for the week, and had turned the house keys over to him for the next few days. The young teen had been ecstatic at first - a week without parents, who wouldn't be? But after a whole twenty-four hours without parental supervision, and Toby was completely bored. There was nothing left to do except do his work, or take a long walk on the beach. He decided upon the latter, because what normal teenage boy sat down to do his homework? Not too many.
His journey took him farther down the beach than he ever attempted to go by foot, and soon the dark-haired teen came upon a girl with long raven hair, practicing what Toby saw to be her powers. He'd never seen the girl before, but she looked awful. She seemed to have little to no control, and was jumping around like an epileptic rabbit. Toby raised an eyebrow and stared at the girl with his arms crossed.
Toby approached the girl, who seemed to be talking to herself. It was strange, if he had been that bad with his aquakinesis, he wouldn't even show his face in public, but here this strange female was, tossing herself around to get her powers to work. It was quite pathetic, but he had to give it to her. She was pretty brave to embarrass herself like that.
Toby approached when she stopped her kicking around, his arms still crossed like he owned the world. "Do you need some help there, Princess?" he asked, looking at the girl with the most repulsed look, "You must be pretty brave to come out here like this; you're horrible with your powers," [/color] Toby noted bluntly, shaking his head. He didn't really notice that his words could be taken in a less than appreciative way, nor did he seem to care. The girl didn't really look that bad, either. Actually, if her hair wasn't so long, and she didn't look as much like a doll, she would have been beautiful. But minor flaws aside, Toby was a teenage boy with hormones, and he was the kind who would shamelessly flirt with any female he saw, such as this one. Sure, he didn't know her name, but that could change in just a few minutes. And, bored as he was, Toby wanted to take a shot at the girl, no matter how far out of his league she was. "Here, I can help you," Toby said with a cocky grin on his face. He snapped his goggles over his face and raised his arms, letting the waves that had been gently crashing on the shore rise into the air, spinning them into small whirlpools that sunk down into the sand, creating craters at the waters edge. He smirked, "So, how do you like them apples?"[/color] [/size][/blockquote][/justify]

Toshiko blinked and looked upwards as she heard a voice that pushed her from her thoughts. There stood a boy with a pose that immediately irritated her. It seemed to make him look like he was so sure of himself and whatever he was to do. It was this kind of arrogance that was confirmed in the way he carelessly commented on her training only to pull off his own oh-so-amazing technique, as if mocking her. She rolled her eyes and rose to her feet.
"That's fine, I'd rather not waste your time," she said, sarcastically. She really didn't care whether or not she wasted his time, she'd just rather not spend her time at the beach around the guy and his cockiness. She brushed off her back from any possible grass that stuck to her clothing. She started off in the other direction, leaving the boy to marvel at his own performance.
If he'd perhaps been less arrogant, or if she'd have had a much higher tolerance for such arrogance, she may have considered allowing him to assist her. Then again, she would have fled anyway after him making the statement on her practicing. As all could expect, she was a bit sensitive when it came to hearing stuff like that.

( I'M NOT STREET, BUT I DO WHAT I GOTTA DO ) - - - - - - SO WHAT YOU GOT A CREW? I GOT A CREW TOO ! "That's fine, I'd rather not waste your time," sarcasm dripped from the females words as she spoke. Toby was taken aback. What had he done wrong? He was just trying to help, and he had fairly good control over his aquakinesis. He could most definitely help her - plus the girl was hot, so he'd be killing two birds with one stone. He'd help her with her powers, and squeeze in a little flirty banter. Whatever was the problem with that?
Apparently the girl had a problem with that. "C'mon, seriously," he whined, running over to her as she walked away. He grabbed her sleeve and put on the cutest puppy-dog face he could muster.
He would be a great tutor, of course. Though she was much older than him, and much larger vertically than he, but what was the big deal? At least she was a hot chick, and he could show off. Maybe even get close to her. Though he didn't really appreciate the sarcasm. It turned him off slightly.
"I could totally help you," he informed her, running in front of her to stop her from leaving so quickly, "I'm not some creepy pervert trying to take a gander at your jugs, and it's free. F - R - E - E, free!" [/color] he spelled the word out slowly to get it through the girls head. Though the first part of the sentence was a bit of a lie. She did have nice breasts as far as he could tell, though what attracted him most was the fact that he could show off to her and maybe even get a date. He put his hands together and begged, "Please? I'll even buy you ice cream as a reward for doing well,"He gave the girl a smirk and crossed his arms, waiting for a response that, hopefully, was an agreement. [/size][/blockquote][/justify]

Toshiko halted once the boy jumped in her path in an attempt to keep her from escaping. When he'd made the puppy-dog look, she was almost tempted to leap forward and hug him ever so tightly. This wasn't exactly her true desire, and she wouldn't consider it weird either. The look would be irresistible in any situation, as cute things were always her weakness. She couldn't help it~. Though luckily the urge faded as the forced expression had and he continued to beg.
He began throwing out protests and bribes as if letting her walk away would be the end of him. The boy's first impression made her hesitate. A younger, overconfident aquakinetic with that slightly perverted kind of look in his eye. And the mentioning of her breasts only made her more reluctant. Not to mention it aggravated her to a further extent. Though it seemed this guy wouldn't allow her to leave, and unless she wanted to deal with him whining to her all day long, she supposed she'd have to agree. Besides, when she refused to cooperate, he'd surely have enough of her after a while and leave her alone.
"Please? I'll even buy you ice cream as a reward for doing well."
Yeah... if she did do well at all. "So there is something for you?" she sneered. Though soon enough, she agreed to the offer. "Fine, just don't boss me around too much." Sometimes you have to tolerate the most irritating things to get through them. Though she suspected this would become a drag after only a short amount of time.
