::The electrical jolt came as a surprise to the gang member, but he began to vibrate as the electricity ran through him; he cried out in pain.::

Michael smirked when the man screamed. He had never used his power against someone and in that moment he liked it. He increased the electricity flowing from him into the man watching, enjoying. The power was amazing.

::The gang member fried from the electricity, his clothing singing, his eyes popped, and his heart stopped. His body fell to the pavement.::

Closing his hand as the man fell, his brain hadn't come to the realization that he'd just killed someone. Michael lowered his hand and blinked as he ended up taking a step back. His adrenaline was still pumping and he just looked at the dead man on the street. His brain for once had actually stopped and hadn't formed a thought yet.

::The other gang members looked at their dead comrade, then at the two mutants responsible for the death and harm of their fellow brothers. Deciding they couldn't win this one, they scattered and ran off down the street.
The other mutant chuckled at their cowardice and shook his head to himself. A waste of space, all of them.::

Michael turned his head as the gang ran off. Suits them right. When he heard the other mutant laugh he turned his head to him giving him a questionable look. He then turned back to the dead body when it suddenly hit him. "I...killed him" He couldn't believe he'd actually killed someone and he didn't even care. Well, not as much as he probably should have.

"They were going to kill you," ::The man said simply. It was a black and white situation to him, kill or be killed. The boy had done what he needed to in order to survive.::

Michael looked at him. "I know, I've just never killed anymore before" It had felt good, which kind of scared him. True, he'd tried to kill Kylie, thought she was dead for a while, but she was live. Shouldn't he feel regret that he had taken a life?

"I can tell," ::The man said, almost amused. He brushed his hands off on his trousers, in case he had gotten them dirty. Then he walked over to the dead gang member and pushed at his corpse with his foot.:: "Nice work with him."

Michael walked over to get a better look at the man. He smelt so bad, but he ignored it. "Thanks" Michael's voice was normal, like he hadn't done anything. He stood with his arms at his sides, hands in fists while he felt electricity start to form around his hands.

::The man gave the corpse another push with his foot, and then stepped away.:: "You're welcome. You have a place to stay tonight?"

"Uh, not sure" He said honestly. He had checked out of the motel and there was some damage to his room due to his ability so that wasn't an option. If he went to the mansion to talk to Kylie he had a feeling it would end in a fight and him leaving. On top of that he had heard a rumor that the guy who ran the place could read minds. If he read Michael's mind now, he'd surely get sent to prison. "Probably not"

::The man was thoughtful for a moment, looking the boy up and down.:: "Can you keep your mouth shut about this for a night or two?"

Michael suddenly got defensive, voice full of irritation. "Yeah, can you?" The electricity just kept jumping around his hands and Michael didn't try to stop it just in case he needed it again.

"Unless I want my wife to kick me out, I have to," ::The man said with a shrug. The young man had anger issues, but that was to be expected.:: "The rule is don't let her know, and you can stay for a couple of days."
