Jeremy Winters:

"Hey, people run around with police radios all the time. Normal Civilians. I just happened to get an upgrade is all. Nothing illegal about upgrades" Jeremy defended himself. Which might have been the end of it, had the women of their group, Luce, not threatened his laptop, though it was jokingly, and then questioned his ability to defend himself. He could defend himself, easily. But that would require a public display of his powers, and/or making things ten times worse for him with the bullies at school.

It means I can make my cells do anything, heal anything, and even alter their traits, such as hardening skin or becoming lighter. It also means..." he made a sharp bone blade come out of his wrist, and then retracted it back into himself. "...that. Of course, I cant do it for long periods of time, nor can I use more then a few of them at once, among other...annoyances, but they are useful. Too bad I can't stop myself from feeling the pain from a hit still".

He was also lucky his powers did not inflict pain on himself, most of the time anyways. He moved his laptop slightly further away from the woman who made things malfunction. "So, just....don't ask about the injury again, okay? Its gone now anyways" Saying he was avoiding something was an understatement.

"Lets just let everyone else take their turns now...."
