"Hands strain in steel bands
As the black sands blow skywards
And steel hands break free
For last stands in the shadowlands"
Crystal pauses for a second..
*what is happening to my hand now?*
*things are getting weird, dear*
*I don't need your comments, but thanks just the same*
z-a-n-g
Crystal shakes her hand a little, "Good back to normal."
"What does that feel like anyways?" asks Warren.
"Really weird," replies Crystal, "like my hand is just a lump of flesh."
"And it can happen anywhere on your body?" queries Warren.
"Yes," states Crystal.
"I'm glad I'm not you," responds Warren.
"I'll bet you are."
*strikedown forcing*
*bastards!*
*let me get this one*
z-a-n-g
*that is such a cool trick, Crystal*
*I know*
*you really must try harder to teach us how to do that*
*I'm doing my best*
Crystal has found a way to not only fight off intrusions, but to completely destroy their integrity, leaving the stream as if it was never touched in the first place. It's a new technique in telepathic warfare that no one ever considered before and now Crystal is the center of a huge undertaking to find out how she does it, and then to teach it to the top telewarriors. The hope is that she is not simply a genetic freak..
*breakfind muddle*
*more confusion intrusions, great*
*blackunder strainfind*
*get that one please I'll get the muddle*
Bok de Cod *BOOM!*
z-a-n-g
*thanks Crystal*
*no problem*
"Are you guys busy?" asks Cherie.
Crystal looks over, "nah it's pretty quiet today."
"Oh good," says Cherie, "I need some help with something."
"Go ahead," replies Crystal.
"A construct got into me yesterday," says Cherie wearily, "and now I can't see it anymore."
"I need you to dig it out please," asks Cherie.
"Gladly," consoles Crystal.

*I think I see it*
*yes that's it*
*strikemind crushweep*
Din Gon!
*tunnelmind outside*
*that should do it*
"Yes," says Cherie happily, "that got it!"
"Thank you so much, Crystal," effuses Cherie.
"No problem at all," smiles Crystal.
"I have to go to work now," smiles Cherie, "I'll find you later."
"Certainly," says Crystal.
Warren observes, "you're very good at what you do, Crystal."
"Thanks Warren."

"Crystal, can I ask you something?" says Warren quietly.
"Anything," replies Crystal.
"Do you feel emotions?" asks Warren.
"Sometimes," says Crystal, "but mostly everything is cold and clear."
"You know you're kind of scary, right?" says Warren, "I mean, I know you are incredibly caring, but it's hard to see how or why."
"I'm aware that I'm strange," says Crystal, "yes."
*chasemind blackness*
*oh no you don't!*

*underfound*
*stopdown stealmind*
Bok de Cod *BOOM!*
*thanks, Warren*
*no problem, that one got close*
*yes it did*
*you don't feel fear either do you?*
*no, I don't*
Crystal stretches out on the couch and says, "I'm almost bored."
"I can imagine," replies Warren, "want to go do something?"
"Maybe," ponders Crystal, "wait until Fariq gets here, then I'll see."
"Ok," says Warren.
Fariq isn't nearly as good as Crystal, but he can work alone because he is incredibly fast at stopping intrusions, and loves an adrenaline rush. The employer was very wary of letting him work alone, but he proved in mutiple tests that he could defend the entire zone alone. While not as fast as the legend Desmond, his sheer enjoyment of fighting makes him Desmond's equal.
Crystal is another story altogether. Her skill is beyond measure, but her demeanor is almost that of a machine, so she is never allowed to work alone. She would be incredibly dangerous if she turned against the forces of order, and no one can tell if she would or will. Time will tell. For now she is the greatest asset to the smoothness of the thoughtstream that anyone knows of, and she demands nothing for her assistance. Many are waiting to see if she desires anything at all. In the realm of living things, she represents an emotionless ideal sought by every aspiring leader that ever lived.

"My god that was evil," curses Warren.
Crystal replies, "those ones are so satisfying to destroy."
"I would imagine," Warren says.
"Someday we will eradicate the hindrances," states Crystal.
"Yes someday," says Warren.
