Quadruple Trouble

Elliot couldn’t help but overlook everything in fear. The second that Bentley had told Xander to yell at his sister meant that everything wasn’t going to end well. Ellie had to back away from the scene just so she wouldn’t get hurt. After hearing Xander’s overpowering voice take over the room, she heard Tatum scream back and a whoosh go past her head. A picture frame had flown across the room and shattered into pieces. Elliot stood in shock before she was suddenly full with rage. “Bentley! How could you do that!?” she shouted at her friend. “Did you really think that making him yell at poor Tatum was a good idea?! You’re absolutely crazy! What good is that gonna do for anyone!?”

Bentley watched the scene unravel in front of him and he couldn’t help but sigh. What he thought was a good idea ended in both of the Dawson siblings in tears and a broken family heirloom shattered on the floor. When Elliot started to scream at him, Bentley turned to face her and just frowned. “I --” He started out, shaking his head. “I didn’t have a choice okay!? We have to make these damn powers emerge somehow and it seems like anger is the only way to do that! Tatum wasn’t going to get emotional with us yelling at her, so it had to be her brother!” He exclaimed, waving his hand in the air. “I did what I had to do!” He added before dropping his hand back to his side. Just as he did so, lightning crashed outside the house. “Woah..”

Xander listened intently to Bentley’s suggestion, but his eyes widened the minute he told him to yell at his sister. “Are you fucking serious!? I-I can’t do that!” Xander retorted. “Tate never did anything, I can’t just do that for–” Elliot then interrupted him, “Just. Do. It.” Xander could only shake his head and sighed for a moment before gaining his anger and turning around, his hands already igniting in flames. “Tate, don’t be a fucking wuss and show me what you have! Enough with your half hearted bullshit! Challenge me! Fucking do it, Tate!” he shouted at his sister, feeling the tears come out of his eyes and the flames on his hands growing stronger.

The second that she heard Bentley tell her brother to yell at her, Tatum knew this wasn’t going to end well -- for anyone. Before he even started to yell, she felt her heart sink inside her chest. her brother never yelled at her -- they had too good of a relationship for that to happen. Once Xander started screaming at her and she saw the flamed ignite in his palms, Tatum’s eyes started to fill with tears. She knew that Xander was only doing it to get her power to emerge, so she didn’t yell back. Instead, she just focused on the anger and pain inside of her and squeezed her eyes shut. As she did so, one of their family pictures flew off the wall and across the room, shattering against the other wall. Hearing the crash, Tatum’s eyes shot open. “W--what was that?”

Elliot’s ways of developing her powers came naturally. An emotion of sadness and anxiety had overcome her in order to shapeshift. It was interesting enough to know that, but she also knew everyone else was different. “That’s being quite halfhearted,” Ellie said to her older cousin. “You need to feel that emotion within you. Don’t force it, just… let it happen.”

Bentley watched as Tatum and the rest of the group struggled to find a way to bring their powers out. After a second of thinking, he had an idea. “Guys -- I think I know something that might work.” He exclaimed as he looked over at Tatum. “Just trust me on this, okay?” She asked before turning to Xander. “You need to yell at her. Make her mad.”

As the oldest of the group and the one who would develop the ideas for everyone to get involved in, Xander was in a position where he had got himself freaking out internally. This situation had occurred to him first as he knew this was going to not only affect him, but also the ones with parents who had gained a sin and virtue.

Hearing Bentley’s concern, Xander held his head in his hands and ran his fingers through his hair. “I–I don’t know, guys,” he started out. “This is gonna screw us all over either way.” He then turned to his little sister and said, “Tate, what do you hate the most? Maybe getting aggravated gets the power to come out. It worked for me..”

Tatum watched as her brother struggled to come up with a way that they could test their powers and she immediately felt bad for putting him in that position. Just as she was about to try and suggest something herself, Xander encouraged her to think of something she hated. “Um -- I hate when mummy and daddy fight?” She asked her older brother with a shrug, not sure if that would actually work or not.

Ellie had been scared for her life when she shrunk down to a smaller size. Thinking about this whole scenario, she didn’t know what made shapeshifting so beneficial considering all she knew of her capacity was shrinking. The only problem was that she had no idea how to grow back. Thinking about how she got down in the first place, Ellie had tried to think of a plan to grow back as she held onto one of Bentley’s fingers tightly.

As the kids finally entered the house, Tatum had asked her brother how she would even try to see if she had powers. “Well…” Ellie chirped. “I felt a little scared and insecure… channeling negative thoughts got me down here. So… what if I channel something positive?” she said. Taking her only chance, Ellie took a deep breath and jumped from Bentley’s hand growing herself in the process. “I–I did it!” she said getting back up.

Despite everything that was going on, the only thing that Bentley was concerned with was making sure that Elliot found her way back to her normal size and wasn’t stuck like this forever. Watching as the blonde struggled, Bentley sighed and just kept his finger in place for her to hold onto until she could manage shifting back.

Stepping into the house, he listened as Elliot thought of a scenario that might help her get back to her regular size and he smiled. “That’s a good idea, Ellie!” He encouraged sweetly. When she returned to her full size, Benny smiled widely. “Look at you go.” He hummed before turning back to Xander. “So -- any ideas on how the rest of us can test this theory?”
