"I..I feel it.." He said feeling the weather take his command. Calming the storm down, he turns to Suresh.
"Unconsciously? It felt like I was actually controlling it. But, I guess I'll have to learn to control it some more. ..This is real. This is really happening.." He said looking at his hands. "You said my eyes were glowing? That's..pretty metal." He said trying to gather all the information. "When I was being attacked by Sandler earlier, (ooc; Just a head's up, getting his name wrong on purpose) "my hands had a little electricity. I wonder why that is." He said trying to conjure up some lightning, putting focus on his finger tips and right hand.
"So...what's next?" He asked Suresh.
===========
Action 1: Int 3 to try again to do the thing.
Action 2: Mystery action 4 to, again, try to do the thing. (OOC: Using 'mystery action' until I get the actual write up. I hope that's fine with you.)

"You did control it", Suresh said. "I was saying that your emotions seem to affect the weather unconsciously, but your control is conscious. In other words... you'd have to be mindful of your emotions, not necessarily use them to control it", he explained. "Also... the man who attacked you is known as Sylar, not Sandler."
Mike's attempt to bring forth lightning seemed successful, as he manifested arcs of electricity between his fingers with ease!
"Impressive. You're getting the hang of it quick", Suresh said. "...What's next? Well, that depends on you. I'd recommend not to go back to your apartment, not alone anyway. Sylar knows you live there. As for what I can do for you, if you'll let me... I can introduce you to someone who could help you learn about your powers better. That professor Xavier I mentioned before."

"Oh, that's kinda confusing. But I usually have my emotions under wrap, so I should be fine. ..hopefully."
"Oh. Right." *Internal eye roll* "Can't stand the guy for going for the weak. I had no idea about this power, and he tries to steal it from me. Can't respect such a coward." He shrugged trying to create lightning from his fingers.
"I'd like to take as much time as I can to master this."
"Yeah, gonna have to make some calls on that one..but yes, please take me to this professor. I'd love to meet him, especially if he can help me. And, honestly, thanks man. This is all...new and kinda scary. But helping me out like this is real nice." He said agreeing to meet professor X.

"There's no need for thanks. I'm... you could say I'm merely keeping my father's dream alive", Suresh said, smiling. "Mutants... evolved humans. The next step in human evolution... my father wanted nothing more than to help people like you find their place in the world. And that Xavier can most certainly help you learn more about what you can do, and how to control it. How about you get some rest tonight? We'll leave tomorrow, when my friends return after dealing with Sylar."
Just as the doctor finished talking, David returned, nodding. "...Right, so I let the others know that you were okay, and to not go to your apartment in case that nutjob was still around. Everyone's okay."

"Y-yeah. That should be fine.." He said. "Probably should order a new phone online, though. If you had access to the internet, I'd like to do that. That way I can take care of my phone, my job and other stuff as well." He asked Suresh.
"Right. Thanks bud. Umm...So I guess I'll be going on a mini-vacation to figure all this crap out. But uh, don't tell anyone about what you saw today. I'd like to keep a low profile if anything.." He said to David. "..Is David going to go home now? Or is he going to be with us for now?" he asked Suresh.

"Of course. You may use my laptop on the table over there", Suresh said. "Session's already open."
David folded his arms. "...Heh, sure. Don't really feel like going around telling everyone that I was the guy with the baseball bat when that killer guy was trying to slice your skull open. He might not like that when he hears about it", he said, smirking.
"..Is David going to go home now? Or is he going to be with us for now?"
Suresh glanced at Mike's cousin. "...Well, that depends on you both, I suppose. Normal humans are welcome at Xavier's school, as long as they not hostile to staff or students, but it still depends on if he wants to go, and if you want him to accompany you."
"You sure you want to go alone after this mess?" David asked. "If I'm the only one who's to know about this for now, wouldn't you like to have someone to talk with whom you know?"

"That's cool, yeah. Come with us for now. Not sure if you have any responsibilities you wanted to take care of, or anything. But I'm going to learn more about whatever is happening to me." He said. Truly he didn't want David to go AT ALL. He didn't want to endanger his cousin like he already has. He actually wished he could wipe David's memory of the entire thing. (OOC: HINT HINT, Charles! lol)
For now, Mike went online to order himself a new phone, message his boss that he'll be taking emergency vacation for a week or two, and email his mom and Allen to let them know everything's okay. Allen would be easy, but his mom might be a little more worrisome. But that's fine. He'd just have to tell her he's okay, and that he's going to be back soon.
For now he'd sleep until he could meet this Professor Xavier.

"Alright. I'll take care of things on my end", David said, nodding, and using his phone to take care of any loose ends.
Mike easily managed to order a new phone, since he was eligible for a new phone with the latest reneweal of his contract. His boss was not especially happy with the last minute vacation, but he left him alone when he learned of the mess at his apartment. As for his mother, as expected, the situation worried her a lot, but she also eventually understood, leaving him free to go.
As Suresh's friends were not returning yet, Mike and David went to bed thanks to the limited comfort of bedrolls provided by the young doctor, allowing them to spend a decent enough night.
Morning came, with Suresh lightly tapping Mike's shoulder. "...Good morning. It would be best if we left soon, so please get up."

"Ugh. Sorry, I almost forgot what happened last night. I'll get ready." He says getting his things ready. They were on their way to meet the professor so he'd be able to get a better hold on his powers. Hopefully this guy could help him control it, and give him a better idea of what he's working with.
"Will I be needing anything specific?" He asked Suresh.

"Not really, but if you need any personal effects, we will accompany you to your apartment to ensure your safety", Suresh responded as Mike realized three more people stood in the room.
A slim man with dark brown hair and eyes wearing a dark buttoned shirt, black jeans and dress shoes.
A more muscular, brown-haired tall man in a black uniform wearing a strange metallic visor.
A beautiful redheaded woman in a similar uniform of her own.
"Allow me to introduce you to the rest of our little team", Suresh said. "Mike... David. Meet Peter Petrelli, Scott "Cyclops" Summers and Jean Grey, also known as Marvel Girl. They, like you, are evolved humans. Mutants, as some have taken to calling them."
"Nice to meet you", Scott said, holding out his hand.

"Ah, nice to meet you too, Scott." He welcomed the handshake. "Dr Suresh, you said 'Mutants' right? Usually that refers to deranged creatures from space, or...turtles..But you're saying they're evolved humans? As in, superior to humans?" He asked. "I'm no scientist, mind you, by any means. But, evolution from what I've been told is an upgrade of sorts. An adaption. Maybe I'm just over thinking it." He said.
"I take it you're coming with us to meet he professor, then? Do you already know what your powers are, or are you like me, and just finding out?" He asked the new team members.
"In any case, I don't need to get anything from my apartment. I've got an auto payment from my bank, so I don't have to go there any time soon. So I'm ready to meet this professor as soon as we can. I..would like to master this power as fast as I can..I'm actually pretty excited.." He said smiling.

Suresh frowned, seemingly a bit torn on the matter.
"...There are various viewpoints in the scientific community about it, actually. Some... like Doctor Bolivar Trask, whom you may have seen on television, believe that mutants are an anomaly, a... misstep in evolution that must be controlled or eliminated. A threat. Professor Xavier and I believe that both humans and mutants should live together in harmony, and if the former are to evolve into the latter eventually, then that's fine, and if not, that's okay too." He sighed. "And then there are people like Erik Lensherr. Or Magneto, as you might have heard of him. An old friend of Charles', who believes mutants to be, as you suggested, superior in all points... and to be the rightful rulers of the world. Magneto believes mutants should rule over humans, with humans being slaves to them. I... have decided to stand for the side I believe to be just, whether it's right or not."
Scott nodded. "...We are coming, of course. Our mission here is over. Our target, namely you, has been secured. All that's left to do is to escort you safely to the professor's mansion. And, yes, we already know about our powers, just like how the professor will easily be able to figure out yours", he promised. "...My body absorbs solar energy, which my eyes can fire as energy blasts. Jean is a powerful telepath and telekinetic. As for Peter... he's one of the most powerful mutants I have encountered so far. He has the ability to copy the powers of other mutants around him, which makes him our best bet against Sylar so far."
"I'm just trying to help others", Peter said modestly, seemingly a bit embarrassed by the praise. "...It's not like I had to work hard to gain that ability. There's nothing to be proud of."
"Well. If you're ready, we should make our way to the jet", Suresh noted.
"...A... 'jet'?" David asked, blinking.
"You'll see", Suresh said, leading the way outside after the group picked up their things and headed out.

"I suppose with something like this, there's bound to be sides with different opinions. I don't typically care for politics, so I must have skipped on this Trask guy if he was on TV. Still, we all should be able to live together in harmony. Even though I know it's not that simple. Humans by themselves can't even get along. And with mutants thrown into the mix..well..If mutants have different types of powers, there are going to be tiers, and the higher tiered mutants will definitely be viewed as a threat I'm sure. ..I wonder what tier I'll be." He frowned. "Baby steps. I'll figure it out as I go."
"Woah, there was a whole mission dedicated to me? I'm..honored. Also kind of scared. Do you do these pick ups frequently?" He asked Scott.
"And yeah, I'm ready to take off on this jet. Must be a private jet or something.." He wondered out loud. "Well...hopefully the weather won't act up on the way there..heh..." He chuckled nervously.

"Once in a while, more often lately. It seems that more people discover that they are mutants nowadays... and people like Doctor Trask raise unrest and disapproval of mutants, endangering their lives", Scott explained. "We try to make sure that mutants are safe, know how to use their abilities and are able to learn and grow in a safe, accepting environment. Failing that, we provide it for them."
"Don't worry, we'll be fine", Jean promised as they headed over to a nearby park, moving under the cover of trees to an open clearing. Scott reached for a handheld device ressembling a joystick without its base, pressed a button and spoke in it. "...Cloaking, off."
Incredibly enough, as they looked before them, electricity arcs appeared, running all over a spherical shape as the seemingly empty clairing revealed what it was actually hiding. As the electric field dispersed, under it was revealed a large, jet black VTOL aircraft of clearly very advanced levels of technology.
"The... 'jet'. We call it the Blackbird", Jean noted, as the access hatch opened and extended stairs for them to get in.
"Let's go", Scott said simply, leading the way inside.

"Alright....so the future is now, then. We have invisible jets now.." He said in disbelief. "Let's go. I want to get all this down. Learn this power, and make it a part of my life. Maybe wind up helping you guys out. Iono. One day at a time."
