Luke sighed as Jack broke out in laugher. Fine now he's laughing at him. That uneasiness with this character was going and Luke was near at loosing his cool with this kid. However he had dropped everything and came across the country for this appointment, he had to stay.

Jack had said that Luke was asking questions to and that he was more honest then he was.

Luke shot a look at Jack "Look, I don't know you from a hole in a wall, I have been honest with you without giving you my details, keep it up and I'll find someone to escort you out of my face."

No, this was not like Luke at all, loosing his cool like this wasn't something he had planned our even wanted.

He watched as Jack got up and still talking about questions ending saying that it didn't mean he was begining interrogated. To Luke it did seem to be just that, that Jack was fishing for information from him.

Jack would tell Luke that it did suck that he gets hurt by his power. Agreed. Luke didn't like getting hurt but if it helps others, then that is what he would do, no matter the pain or the outcome. Helping others was his life and this was just another way he could.

It did not mean he liked the idea, he was hear for answers about this power of his, maybe a way he didnt have to be always injured? Luke did not know at that moment.

"I do not want to fight with you over this but really I do not like getting hurt also, it hurts more then just the injury but the wallet also" Luke told him.

Jack couldn't help but smile at Luke's response, at the threat. It probably wasn't the best response, after all, it wasn't as if they were physically capable enough to defend themselves. Nor were they particularly enamoured of pain. Not that those misgivings had ever stopped them from pushing buttons. Normally they had more protection, but 177 wasn't here. That didn't take away the arrogance. They were confident Lukas wouldn't seriously hurt them. "No one likes getting hurt." They paused for a moment, mulling it over, "Well that's not true, there are definitely people who enjoy a little pain. Not that I count myself amongst their number." It was odd the way they talked, far more educated and cerebral than was to be expected from someone clearly young enough to be in high school. Jack was a good liar, but they rarely bothered to extend their lies to concealing who they were. Nobody ever really understood their true nature anyway, no matter how honest or dishonest they might have been. "Interesting that a cop was trying to save a kids life. What happened? You shoot him?"

Lukas just wanted to sit and relax and think of questions he wanted to ask the doctor about, instead he was going back and forth with this kid who seemed to know alot except how to shut their trap for any length of time.

"I have been more then patient with you, I don't like all the questions, a conversation is one thing but trying to fish for info is another, please stop." Luke told him politely, but no one could miss the aggravation in his tone of voice.

Luke watched as he got up and kinda walked away, however kept with their montra about conversations and questions and taking turns. They even tried to escape blame by saying that what they were doing wasn't an interrogated.

Luke would see them shrug and comment about to back he got hurt.

He had enough of them and their fishing conversation. Luke got up and put his unjured hand on the upper part of Jack's arm. "Let's take this outside, ok?" Luke was frustrated and not a happy camper.

Luke felt something like a burning sensation go though his injured arm. Startled, he let go of Jack and rubbed his injured arm, but when he did he noticed it didn't feel injured any more. Luke let out an unexpected "WHAT THE FU?" He took off the sling and examined his arm, wiggling his fingers with a kid like amazement. Luke most certainly was now super confused as what was going on and how?

Luke had almost forgotten about Jack and looked towards him, it was only then Luke noticed that Jack was holding his arm. No, no that can't be? How? Luke thought to himself.

The kid smirked as Lukas put his hand on their arm. ”Take this outside? What are you going to do? Beat up a 17 year old kid? Big man aren’t you?” Jack did not expect the sudden searing pain that radiated through their arm from Lukas’ fingers. They didn’t enjoy pain, and usually made efforts to avoid it, but obviously they had pushed the cop too far and he had lost his temper. They managed to restrain themselves from crying out, bringing a hand up to support the injured limb. Which was a great deal more injured than they had expected. Not only was the pain greater than it should have been from Lukas’s touch, but the injury that appeared to have been inflicted was in the wrong place. It was their forearm. Lukas must have used his ability. Had it been deliberate? A quick glance at the amazed and celebrating Lukas suggested not. They didn’t have any pain killers, and for them the injury was still relatively fresh, not dulled to the background as it would be after some time. Even so, they kept the pain out of their voice. ”That’s a neat trick. Now are you gonna take it back or what?”

When Luke escorted Jack outside, Jack made a snide remark about an adult beating up on a seven teen year old. Jack had no intention on doing that, however if Jack wanted to think that, so be it. Maybe if they thought they were going to get beat, maybe they would shut up and leave Luke alone for once.

Then something unexpected happened. Luke unknowingly and unwillingly transfered his injury to Jack.
How did that happen? Why did it happen? Luke had no idea how any of this worked, the soul reason for his visit to this place.

Jack did not seem to be hurting? Maybe he hid it well, who knows. Jack just said it was a neat trick and to take it back.

That was the problem, Luke didn't know how to take it back and told Jack that, he told Jack he did not know how any of this stuff worked. Luke went on to tell him, he did not mean to hurt him, he just wanted Jack to go 'take a hike' and leave him alone, at least for some time.

Luke asked Jack if he could see his arm, he told Jack he did not want to hurt him. Luke would take Jacks newly acquired injured arm into his hands. Luke ran his fingers up the side of the arm checking pulses and such. Luke would go though his medical training to help the youth even giving him the sling he had use.

Luke suggested that the doctor should be coming out shortly as it was about the time for his appointment. "Maybe he can check your arm for you?" Luke said to Jack.

After this situation, Luke wanted more then ever to learn about this ability that currently was a thorn in his butt, it was not helping Luke and how can he help people when he was always ended up injured? With what happened to Jack, that might be a solution, however one that Luke would not want to use because no matter how bad someone is, he did not want to hurt anyone.

Jack winced as Lukas took their arm, the pain was excruciating and it was taking all of their willpower not to cry out. Then when Lukas ran his fingers up the side of their arm they snapped. ”What the f&*k are you doing?” They weren’t particularly impressed by Lukas’ handing off of responsibility. ”So you thought breaking my arm was the right approach? Glad to see all of our Police Officers are such fine upstanding citizens who won’t hesitate to assault a minor if they piss them off.” The suggestion of waiting for a doctor to check the arm was laughable. Jack knew what a broken arm was like, and they said as much. It was clear what had happened, Lukas had used his ability, perhaps not intentionally, but he had used it nonetheless. Perhaps it was linked to emotions? Anger causing him to push injuries onto others and sympathy to take it back? If that was the case then Jack wasn’t sure if Lukas would be healing the arm any time soon. ”I think you need to learn to control that power pretty quick.” On the other hand, now they had the perfect barrel to hang Lukas over in the future. There were cameras everywhere in the MNRU, and one of them would have caught what had just happened. It may not be something they use now, but it would be useful for the future if they ever needed something from Lukas. ”Yeah sure the doctor can help. Dumbass.” They struggled into the sling that was held out to them. They’d need to get the arm put in a cast. But that could wait, technically they weren’t even supposed to be here. Not that it had been hard to get in.

Luke was at his wits end with this kid and now he was swearing because Luke was treating him. Yeah, it wass Lukes fault, but he did not mean for the kid to get hurt, he just wanted him to go home or whatever, get out of his hair and let him alone so he could think while waiting for the doctor to come.

"I did not mean to break your arm! for pete's sake, I know nothing about whats going on with this 'thing' I have, trust me if I want to really hurt you, you would not have a broken arm!" Luke added "What are you some kind of cop wanna be following cops around fishing for information? How in the world did you know I was a police officer in the first place?" Luke was exasperated with the kid by now.

The kid wasn't helping things when he quipped back to him that he needed to learn to control his power quick and that sure the doctor could help, dumbass.

"That's it, I do not want to continue this with you, you stay out here and I'll go back inside. I am not going to reply to your s**t anymore. I am sorry about your arm, I'm sure insurance will cover it but please just leave me alone." Luke told him. He started to walk away and then turned to Jack again. "I hope you get the help you need and do something good with your life." With that Luke walked back inside and sat in his seat watching to see if Jack would follow him or not.

The sling helped a little, it allowed Jack to take some of the weight off their arm, but they were still in pain. They would certainly need to have it put in a cast, otherwise they'd be subject to the tender ministrations of 177. They knew Anna was perfectly capable in battlefield medicine that didn't mean they wanted her anywhere near their broken limb. They also did not need Lukas anywhere near the limb either. The man might be able to take the wound back, but then that might take away the leverage Jack would be able to apply later. Lukas obviously thought of himself as an honourable man, and even if he didn't, Jack would be able to recover the video from the MNRUs CCTV. They already had a backdoor into the system, it wouldn't take much to filter through the footage. Jack might be in pain, but they were able to filter into a background noise, an urgent one certainly, but nonetheless in the background. That didn't mean they had to act as if they could focus despite the pain. "S*^t… what the f*&k is wrong with you?" They winced, "It's obvious you’re a cop, anyone could spot it from a mile away." They stepped away from Lukas as they left the room, "That's right, break someone's arm then pretend it's not your responsibility. Whether you understand your power or not, it's still your power. You need to start taking some responsibility for yourself. And now…" They indicated their injured arm. "You owe me." Jack turned to go.
