Nikolai walked into the Abercrombie store. He had handsome features and a great body. He also had a bit of a stalker in the sales assocaite who had spotted him. She walked up to him. "Hey Nikolai!" He didn't reply he never did. He simply nodded. The metal relaxation balls moved in his hand. She started talking to him, but his mind was on the cute guy at the checkout counter.
Eventually, the girl eventually gave up and Nikolai perused the clothes and picked out a few new outfits. At the checkout counter, he gave the guy a shy smile. When the cashier printed off the receipt, he wrote his phone number. This act was much to the bemusement of Nikolai for he would never call it.
Nikolai simply took his clothes and proceeded out of the store and down the street.

Fayt was walking through the town. He didn't have too much money, but it was always interesting to window shop, or just to see the crazy things everyone else had bought. He was looking across the street as he walked, a woman had about five bags in hand and was already dressed horrbly had caught his eye, when he accidentally ran into Nickolai. Falling back he looked up. Standing quickly, he spat out a quick "Sorry!"

Nikolai laughed. "It's no problem at all... I should have been paying attention..." Nikolai didn't mention that is attention was on a rather cute man who had been walking a few paces ahead of him. He held his hand out to the stranger and said, "My name's Nikolai."

Reaching out and shaking his hand, "Fayt." He said with a nod. He was a little amazed the man hadn't nearly killed him. That's what would have happened if the same thing happened back in New York. He looked down at the bag in the man's hand. "So, out for a bit of shopping?" He asked, instantly hoping the man wouldn't bring out a Bill Engvall joke on him.

"Yeah... I hit the stores a lot..." he said. "It's one of my many hobbies."

He nodded. "I actually don't come around here all that much myself. I usually just stick with the clothes on my back," he said, shoving his hands in his pockets. He didn't reveal that the reason he didn't was because he didn't have a true job... Not much money to his name at all really.

"Want some new clothes?" Nikolai asked, raising an eyebrow. He didn't mind buying the stranger clothes because he loved helping people, and he was rich enough it didn't matter. "There is an entire shopping district around the corner."

He thought about it a moment, then shook his head. "Generous as that is, I can't ask you to do that. I don't have much money, so there is no way I could pay you back..." He hardly ever took freebies, he enjoyed working for the things he recieved.

"Then consider it a gift!" Nikolai insisted. "Trust me... it's perfectly alright! There's only one thing better than getting new clothes: giving them."

Fayt smiled. "Getting a jump on Christmas, are ya?" He sighed. He really liked the idea of a new look... "If there's anything I can do to make this up to you, just name it." He said with a quick nod, accepting.

Nikolai had a sinking suspicion that Fayt was a mutant. He could *sense* it, but couldn't sense the exact power. Nikolai unflinchingly caused a nearby trash can to float across a street and knock someone down in front of traffic. While that person was actually in no real danger, he wanted to see if Fayt would rescue him. If Fayt were unable to do it, Nikolai could easily do it himself. Being a good actor, Nikolai said, "Oh my god!" and pointed the the person.

Fayt, by the time Nikolai yelled out, had already turned and began running toward the person. There was a vehicle heading straight for the person in the street, and Fayt knew he wouldn't be able to get to him in time. He saw a puddle near the man in the street, thrusting both hands toward him. The water grew and pushed the man back to the sidewalk, just as the vehicle drove by. Fayt's hands were still outstretched, wondering exactly what had happened to make the man fly out into the street like that. By this time, the driver got out and walked to the man, past a garbage can on the sidewalk. Fayt noticed a dent in the can. No one looked like they had really tried to hurt him, everyone actually began crowding him to see if he was okay. He turned to Nikolai, realizing that he had just used his powers in front of him. He quickly dropped his hands to his sides and stood straight, clearing his throat, looking down.

"Remarkable..." Nikolai whispered to himself. "You said you wanted to know how to pay me back.... come live at my school. Help me teach people with powers like yours to control them."

His jaw slacked up a bit as he heard this. "Then you're the one who did that..." He said, speaking of the incident that had just occured. But afterward, a smile broke out across his face. "You devil! All right, I'll teach, so long as you don't pull any stunts like that again!" He said, giving a laugh.

"He was never in danger. I could sense he had a lot of iron in his blood. Using my power, I could have evenly distributed the iron and moved him that way." Nikolai replied. "I just wanted to see if my suspicions were correct...."
