*Shakaku heard a womans voice yelling, it seemed to be addressed to him. He knew that it was the woman from before, not only that he had seen her but they way that she spoke. She seemed to be an expert on heat and knew that his time was getting ever so close, he would probably blow up with in the week or maybe next week, but it would be soon. He thought for a bit, bringing the words together. He knew that. But still he sat up and looked at her.*
I'm aware of that!
*Yelling as well, so that she would be sure to hear him. He lazily stood up and took a few steps closer to the woman. He was sure there would be no talk about fighting. Maybe she could help solve his problem... maybe. There was nothing that was gerantided in his mind right now. There was no thought of asking for help or possibly that she could be his mentor. All he wanted was to solve this problem.*
What will happen this time?
*He spoke quietly, hoping that she wouldn't hear this. He wondered what would happen. What kind of conversation would bring them too. What sort of things would come up? Only time could tell what would happen.*

Freya slowly raised both her eyebrows. So he knew how close he was to tipping. It wouldn't take that much to finally make him explode. Sure, if nothing pushed him, he'd have a little longer, but... At a school like this it was shocking he'd even lasted this long!
"Well? Are you just going to let it happen? Just wait for it?" Would he risk letting himself explode at any random moment, most likely in the presence of some innocent bystander? Would he risk getting himself kicked out just because he was too stubborn to take care of whatever it was bugging him? Not to mention, he knew what would happen! And yet... Here he was, so close to everyone! If Freya was in his place, she wouldn't even be at the school until she'd gotten rid of all of her frustrations.
"Why haven't you just done something about it? There must be someone you can talk to around here. Or you could at least take out some frustration on the Danger Room. All you're doing is making it worse." Much, much worse. Nothing was being done.... Why hadn't one of the X-men come to him? Wouldn't Xavier have at least tried to fix this?

*Shakaku looked down. There it was... she was talking about that. She didn't really understand as much as he thought she did. She probably had siblings and parents that understood and she could go talk to. People that she felt close to and comfortable enough to talk about anything to. Shakaku didn't have those things. He had friends but he didn't want to talk to them about this.*
What do you suggest i do? Go into the forest and let it all out, and after a good number of trees are burned down, how about I just go to my normal life and let it happen again!
*By this point that seemed like his only option. No one would talk to him about this. But it did seem like most of the students did understand to not pester him, and most avoided him. They didn't understand why... but avoiding him seemed to be the smartest move right now.*
Danger room is a good idea, if it's free... plus it would only just let me cool it down, it would have the same problem.
*He would probably end up melting quite a bit of equipment. Then getting a lecture by someone for some reason or another.*

Freya just listened, not saying a single word as he ‘sort of’ vented. Hopefully it’d help him feel a tiny bit better. After all, venting was always a great way to relieve some stress. When she finally did speak up, she’d made sure to be very careful of what to say. “Would it help?” She paused for only a moment. “Maybe not overall, but wouldn’t it help at least for the moment? When you can’t talk about it, isn’t the next smartest thing to at least try and avoid hurting someone else?”
He was a bully, he hurt a lot of people, but there were some people that he just wouldn’t want to hurt. Freya was the same way. Or, she had been when she was younger. After a while, she’d learned that your actions always caught up with you. You couldn’t let yourself make mistakes you’d regret later… And he was at that point. Either way, there were some people that she didn’t want near her when she was in a bad mood. She didn’t want them to get hurt. Likewise, this kid had people like that.
Freya sighed, running her fingers through her hair. He was shutting down to her. No wonder he couldn’t go to other people. He just tossed people aside without a second thought.

*Shakaku was sure that it would help a little but he just wanted to problem to be solved, not prolong it. True he didn't want to heart anyone... that bad. But he wasn't good with talking.*
Maybe, but it still wont help me solve my problem.
*Shakaku was sure that she wouldn't be able to help with this problem, or at least not try to help.*
Plus why else do you think I havn't been around other students?
*He wasn't all bad, but he wasn't all good. He had his issues and handled it differently than any other student in the school. He wanted help, just no one was good to talk to. Most people he knew he got in fights with easily. Or just didn't want to talk about personal things with.*
*Of course he was going to push people away. Not just because of his image it was mostly because he felt like no one truly would understand him and be able to help. He had thought of lots of things, but none of them seemed like good ideas, and wouldn't work, witch only made him even more upset and angry.*

“No… It won’t solve it.”
Freya sighed softly, twirling her fingers through her hair as her mind reeled a bit. He wouldn’t talk to her, he wouldn’t talk to other people. How was he supposed to get help then? “How do you expect to solve it, if there is no one you can go t-“ She suddenly paused, her mind settling on one thing. He’d admitted he had some friends that he was close to. Why didn’t he go to them? Why was he being so withdrawn? “Let me guess. Friend problems.”
Definitely not an area she was that knowledgeable in. The only people she was close to were her sister, Rory, and maybe a few Exiles she’d been raised with. Other than that, she couldn’t think of a single person.
Finally, Freya sighed, shaking her head. “I’m sorry, but you’re really at a standstill. If you can’t solve your problem, and aren’t willing to go find someone to help, it’ll never be solved. Problems don’t just solve themselves. You’re an idiot for thinking otherwise.” She might have offered to help solve it, but why would she? He was just a teenager! Usual teenage drama! She’d already gone through all that once, and once was enough!

*Shakaku sighed, she was right, it would never be sloved. Seemed like she was pretty smart though, she did pull the cause out of almost, what seemed like, thin air.*
Something like that...
*It was mainly with a girl, but he wasn't going to say that because then she might think that he had a girlfriend. Why would he ever have one of those. Having one just seemed like a hassle. Always spending time and coming up with dates and so one. It just seemed complected. But so did this problem.*
It's not like anyone I talk to would take me seriously, or actually want to help.
*Either they would laugh because he was coming to them for help, or just not want to help, thinking it was a joke or a way to lure them into a false scene of security. He could got to Kaito, but he wouldn't be able to help. He was more of a friend that you did stuff with, not talk to.*
I know it wont solve it's self, but theirs nothing else I can do.
*She was right, even venting this much helped a little. If only he had someone who he could actually vent every thing to.*

It wasn’t hard to figure out. Teenagers were always having friend problems. Every year it seemed like they had a new set of friends, a new best friend, a new girlfriend or boyfriend… This kid though? He didn’t seem like the type. He probably didn’t have that many friends to begin with, and those few friends were very important to him. It wasn’t hard to guess. With an attitude like his? He probably had the hardest time even making friends! And as bad as it sounded, even considering this might be girlfriend problems were impossible!
Freya shrugged. It was right to not tell her what was going on. Who told a complete stranger about their personal problems? Sure, she was pretty curious by this point, but the chance of him telling her were slim to none. Maybe though… She’d be able to help in another, less sentimental way?
“Find a way to solve it then.” She ran her fingers through her hair, taking a few steps closer to where he stood, closing some of that huge distance that was between them. “Kid, what’s your name?” She’d rather not refer to him as ‘kid’ any longer. Not to mention, putting a name to the face was always a good thing.

*Shakaku's problem was a lot more complicated than Freya made it sound. And it wasn't as easy to solve as she said. It was much more complicated, at least it seemed more complicated due to the fact that he couldn't solve it, no matter how long he thought about it. But not being able to solve it made him upset, making him angry.*
I've been trying that for a week now.
*He had been thinking about the problem for what felt like longer, but it was a week. That being said, he was sure that it wouldn't get solved easily. He could always go and talk to Gisli but at this point he might just blow up on her, and hurt her. That wouldn't solve anything, now would it?*
*When the woman asked his name, he wondered why she wanted his name, he thought that she could care less and just planed on him being the nameless kid that she ran into more often than not.*
Shakaku, yours?
*It sounded resentful, and he took a few steps forward. He wanted to ask why she wanted to know his name, but she would probably say something like "because..." than something stupid.*

A week… And he was already at this point? He was a ticking time bomb, with enough control to suppress his urges for a time… But he was still a student. He was still learning. He was still a threat. To himself and anyone around him.
Freya’s first thought when he finally gave his name was how unusual it was. It wasn’t unusual for the school though. Most the students had strange names, as they came from all around the world. She wasn’t one to talk though, knowing that when she’d been born her mother had been crazy enough to name Freya after some Norse Goddess! At least she could put a name to the face now though.
She almost seemed hesitate when he asked for her name in return. Sure, it was expected, but she still had to be careful who knew she was in the country. But… He was a student at the school! He wouldn’t go blabbing to a bunch of humans! Hopefully…
“Freya. Freya Elensar.”
He’d know the name. Near all mutants knew the name Elensar. Now, since he was a Pyromancer he was even more likely to know her name in particular. Freya truly was the most powerful Pyromancer in existence.

*Shakaku did recognize her name. So this was the strongest pyromanser in the world. Interesting. Why was she here? Maybe to see Xavior. Maybe to ask for an alince. Maybe not. He would probably never know why she was actuay here. Even if he asked, she would probably just make up a lie, or tell him what he was expecting her to say, it being the truth or not. He always thought she would be much older though. But it was understandable. She was a higher level mutant than he was. She also had a tutor, someone to help her learn control. That was as far as he knew. She had someone to help teach her to control her powers, unlike him. Shakaku needed someone like that. Now that they had finally... officially met, what would happen? Would she offer to help him with his problems and his powers, doubt it. But he wouldn't say no, partially because she could teach him a lot.*
I see, then I was smart not to fight you a few days back.
*Shakaku was positive that he made the right move by believeing her cocky aditude. Believing that she was stronger, and she knew it.*
