Strawberry Fair, continued

So we're wandering along, Dragon teaching us about channeling our abilities, passing a few stalls, Healthbar got a new T-Shirt, we ate some chips, I bought a coostaff to test the channeling, a tall carved one, made of wood, a bit shorter than me and with a pointed top, it's awesome, but anyway:
we heading along the path nearest the river, when there's a huge bang and a tent on our left, nearest the river, bursts into flames. Four shocked people come running out, two of whom promptly faint, while a girl dangling her feet in the river behind the tent laugh and sends a wave of river crashing onto the tent with a wave of her hand, extinguishing it. A man staggered out, soaked, and called out 'uncool sis, majorly unawesome.' She laughed again, stood up, and grabbed him by the hand 'I don't know how we're doing this stuff, but you've got to admit, it's very cool. Now lets...lets...go look at the pretty colours..'and with that she feel to the floor, snoring. He chuckled at her, sat down nest to her, sniffed a pipe he was holding, and fell down beside her.
'I see what you mean' said Stan as we passed them, but our smiles faded as we saw someone with bronze eyes heading towards us. 'Oh come on, can't we ever just hang out?' I muttered, and gripping my new staff tighter, shot a fireball from my hand. It hit him in the chest, and it seeped away, sort of into him, and he grinned and shot a jet of fire back at me. I dodged and Cleo shot a wave of icy mist at him, freezing his arm. Again he smiled, and as his arm recovered, the grass around him froze. 'I have been selected to kill you, because your abilities are simply turned against you by mine' he said, and started forward again, but Healthbar shot him in the head with a blast of solar energy, causing him to stagger backwards. 'What? Last time I saw you lot all you could do was heal!' yelled Don, but I had to shove him out of the way from a beam of burning energy blasted the ground where we'd been. 'Come on, it's useless, accept your fate' gloated the newcomer, and Don got up and ran as I turned to face our enemy. I swung my staff into his face as Stan got a bullet in his shoulder. He screamed, grabbed a nearby man, and his eyes shone brighter as his victim went pale and collapsed. (We saw later he was breathing, Healthbar fixed him up) Our opponent turned, fully healed, and bellowed at us 'I am leech, none of you can stop me!' and ran at us once more. We had to defend ourselves, and the fight was going nowhere, until Stan was knocked out, I was on the ground with an injured leg, and Cleo was frozen in place with her own ice, making it impossible for her to use her martial arts. That reason only occured to me when Don stopped Healthbar's throat being cut by kicking Leech in the back, sending him toppling over onto the ground. 'I warn you, I don't have fancy stuff to absorb like my friends, just years of training in Karate' he said, and began a series of quick blows and kicks, causing leech to gasp and wince as he was quickly beaten into submission. 'He's getting a boost from an ability, right?' asked Cleo as she and I melted the Ice holding her. 'Nope, he's just bloody good. He learnt it the hard way, without an ability, unlike Chan' I said, looking proudly at my friend flooring Leech again. Don stopped when Leech was curled up on the floor, wheezing, bleeding heavily and looking terrified. 'I don't like people messing with my friends, we were having a great time until you came along.'
'What do we do with him now?' Healthbar asked.
I saw the answer heading excitedly towards us covered in chocolate sauce. 'Diffy, this man has been really horrible. I think he'd like some of you're special treatment.'
'Ooooh, he really big meany, I see it in his squinty squinty eyes. I help him, don't worry.'
'Oh gods, not the egg shaped thing. I've heard the stories about him, even the boss is afraid of him. Something else, please!'
I bent down to whisper in his ear. 'We have had enough of you people coming after us and making our lives hell. We're just trying to have a nice day out together, alright? Think about this next time one of you wants to come after us.' I straightened up 'Have fun Diffy'

We wandered off 'They know you're friends with us now' I said to Don, and sighed. 'Nah, you don't say. Did he work it out when I punched him in the stomach?'
'Fine, fine. I just mean you might have to stay with us for a while, it would be safer'
'Meh, ok, beats them breaking my houses door down I suppose'

Things calmed down after that. We signed some petitons, saw Omni and Precog having a painting competition with three other people (Two of which, I'm told, had abilities), and Diffy eventually ame and told us that he'd let Leech go, with clear instructions that we don't want 'meanies' invadig our lives anymore. I doubt that will last. Cleo said she might try recruiting some people from here, not sure how far that idea ever went. We saw a lady making bubbles fly from her hands, a long haired man with elton john glasses creating illusions, and another Hippie with petal flowing round him as he danced a slow, melodic dance. So many other things, but I can't mention them all, it would take hours. We saw Ali at one point (She may have got a little drunk) and she was joining in dancing to the band on stage with some out-of-it youths. Doolittle tamed a horse that had been spooked and Playwrite fixed a minor incident involving three tents, the nearby bridge, the river, and several drugged up men who had clearly triggered their abilities without realising. Other than that, pretty fun, simple day. If I remember anything that was important, I'll put it up later.
