Family Issues, and Death's Return

So, hile Cleo was in Australia, we stayed in DC and did what we could. We've seen some strange things, Danko being followed by a man in a car, that creepy guy that tried to take my brain ages ago coming out of B26 as SOMEONE ELSE! and turning back into himself, before sneaking off, and of course people with abilities. We helped three, they all kept their powers, no cool ones, a guy who could sweat metal, a girl who could become living rock, and a man that had an acidic touch. We were looking over the plans again, mostly just for something to do, when I got a call from base. It was Justin, who's still staying with us so he can hide.

'Hi Tempest, it's Justin. Look, there's a bit of a commotion down here. A girl's turned up, says she's your cousin, and she's in a huge panic - things keep exploding, the dinner table's just a wooden blob, and most of the chairs are now wooden models of a building in DC. Please come and help. Doolittle, Broadcast and Diffy are with her now.'

I got off the phone and told the others 'It's Lily' said Precog, showing me his most recent pictures 'She has some important news for you.'

I got Damian to take me, it was quickest, and I'm almost getting used to teleporting now, it's not as bad as it used to be, but it still leaves me a bit woozy and wishing I hadn't had breakfast. I looked round in confusion, still recovering from the teleport, as Justin was filling the room with smoke, aiming it at one of the wooden sculptures that was in the room, which was on fire, and he was trying to smother it out. He turned to me, and smiled. 'Oh Thank GOD!' he exclaimed 'How is she doing all this?' 'My cousin's are all really powerful. Our grandmother was one of the strongest specials there have been, my Technopathy was much stronger than most from the start, they have strong ones too!' I called back, struggling forward. Lily was standing in the middle of the room, her eyes glowing, a chair morphing into a model of our hotel and back into a chair in front of her, while she yelled at Doolittle, who was struggling in a strong wind, trying to reach Lily, while things exploded round her. 'WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S ALREADY THERE? I NEED TO TALK TO HIM NOW!!!!!! HIM AND ALL HIS FRIENDS ARE IN EXTREME DANGER!THIS BUILDING IS GOING TO BE THE HOME OF TERRIBLE EVENTS! FIND HIM! FIND HIM! FIND HI- Oh there you are.' She'd noticed me and Damian, and everything stopped. The wind, the explosions, the fire, the chair, it all just stopped. 'I really need to talk to you' she said, smiling.
'Yeah I'd gathered that' I grinned at her. 'Would you mind fixing all the destruction to our lovely base first though?'
'Oh yeah, sorry' she looked around. 'Things like this tend to happen when I panic.' She waved a hand at the mess, and everything reformed. Even the things that had blown up fixed themselves.
'Molecule Manipulation' I said to the others as explanation. 'Cast all molecules of a thing outwards at fore, it explodes. Other way, it's fixed.' I turned to her, puzzled 'The wind and the glowing eyes?' 'Excitation of air molecules, and rearrangement of pigment molecules combined with friction in the air causing the molecules to nearly explode and therefore glow brightly, now can we please go here?' she said, morphing the chair once more into a wooden model of our hotel. 'It may already be happening' 'Ok, we can go, I assume Tildy told you?' she nodded 'Sis has been worried for a while, she's been picking stuff up, even the ghosts are worried, you know how she's Psychic? she saw something today in a vision, and the ghosts told her that it was ME that had to come and tell you, and quickly, she and Simon had to stay, and that you need to 'Hide' me before we go? I can come with you, but he'll know wo I am? So I need to hide?' 'Ok, hang on' I said, touching her blond hair. She stared as it turned red, and commented that I'd clearly been picking up more tricks. Then she concentrated, and with huge effort, made her nose a bit longer, and theneasily changed her eye colour. 'The eyes are easy, but it's still hard to morph parts of the main body' she said, examining herself. 'Last thing' I said, making sure everyone was ok, having found Diffy and Broadcast hiding behind the counter. 'What's your name? Your alias I mean. You need one if your going to be part of this, for protection. You know all ours, and I assume you know of Cleo and Damian thanks to Tildy?' she nodded 'They're Auriss and Cienfuego to the rest of the world, so remember that. What's yours?' she smiled around at the base. 'Chaos' she said.

We got back to base, to find Tingle gone, and everyone fighting Death, who had them locked in place again. 'Not him, someone else' Chaos muttered, looking in horror. 'This isn't right, we weren't warned of him at all, something else is going to happ- AAAAAAHHH!' she was slashed by Death, and fell to the floor. 'Hello Tempest, good of you to drop in. The air in front of you is static, so none of your attacks will reach me' Death wheezed, and he was right. My lightning wouldn't go more than a few inches, then it stopped and shocked me instead. It's almost the only thing of my powers I'm NOT immune to, but I kept using it, and it kept shocking me. He showed me horrible things, I don't know how, I may tell you about them but I don't want to. They were all true and all so terrible, I doubt I'll ever sleep properly again.

This is where Cleo comes in. I'll tell you what happened later, and what we found out about Tingle, in a bit.
