Jasmine hadn't said anything since her meeting with Kevin, and since then it had only been bugging her. Even now, she probably would have let it slide but when her eyes met Andy's...she liked the feeling she usually got from looking in them. It was a warm, tingly feeling that always automatically made her smile. Lately however, they'd given her a sick feeling in her stomach on top of her usual happy ones.
"Can I...talk with you?" she finally asked him, giving an uneasy look to the others--it might mean for another round of teasing, but somehow she felt it right to take Andy so they could be alone for a moment.

"Um sure..." he seemed confused at first, sitting in the silence until he finally got her meaning. "Oh, okay. Over there then..."
He pointed by the small tower of ice away from the group.

Jasmine smiled and nodded, getting up to head over to the ice tower and beckoning Andy to follow. She turned back to him as they separated from the group, not entirely sure how she wanted to bring it up...
"I'm sorry for bothering you for something like this, really. I'd seen you and Kara fighting, and you're both so wonderful," she smiled up at Andy, "of course, training certainly pays off, doesn't it? You see how much you've improved..."
By now she'd lost a lot of what her smile had held in warmth as she added, "...which makes me begin to worry when I start hearing that you're not doing it anymore. Is there a reason for this?"

Andy was confused why she was bringing up his training, then he guessed that Kevin was talking to her and he folded his arms.
"I don't need it anymore. I found a power that can defeat Trucido."

Jasmine's eyes widened.
"Oh, is that so? And what power is this?" she asked, rather curiously.

Andy winced, here was the dreaded part...maybe he could conceal some of the tiny little details...or maybe not.
"...Do you remember this Jasmine?" he held his hand, and white material formed in his hands. Showing a bone white mask that should be familar to her. Since Andy was not wearing the mask, he was not in liablity of the inner evil deal. He was simply showing her it.

Jasmine raised an eyebrow, looking at the white mask.
"Yes...but I'm afraid I don't understand," she answered slowly, her eyes narrowing, "that's supposed to be your inner, evil you. The not you, right? It might not surprise me if somehow that thing could fight someone like Trucido but I fail to see how that's a 'power' of its own--or am I missing something?"

"No Jasmine it's more than that, I can actually use it's power! See?" he said, leaning his head closer so she could see his eyes change to black and yellow. Which were the color of his eyes when his Inner Evil took control.

As they were talking, Yeligar looked over to Kara, and asked "So, What is Andy like in battle?"

Jasmine gasped, and surprisingly, reached out and grabbed Andy's cheeks, turning his head in both directions and examining him as though she were expecting him to turn into some kind of monster.
"What do you mean you can use it's power?!" she hissed, "and how is it any good reason to not train with Mr. Uruhane!?!?"
It was obvious she wasn't the least bit impressed. If anything, she showed more worry than awe.

Because what? Because if he continues to use the mask then his inner evil will take control of him?
"I...I have my reasons." he pulled away defensively.

Still not getting the etch of the battle out of his head, Tempest turned to Yeligar, "How are you guys able to do that type of stuff? I can do nothing like that, except for calling some lightning down and stirring the wind a bit." The intensity of that magic...he had never felt anything like that before.

"It is just something you are born with. Like, Some people are great with spells, and some people can fire beams, from blades. It is just the way the gods made us, making all of us different, unique." He said, as he rubbed his hand. "Most people can not do lightning spells without years of training."

Tempest started scratching the back of his head again. Something was in his hair. "Well, it's not really doing spells. I mean, I don't have to mutter something and 'BOOM,' I just think and there it is. Same with the wind, although I have to think harder. I just believe it's that way with everybody."

"Andy!" Jasmine shook her head at him, "you know, I remember when you were scared of what was happening to you, when this thing first started showing up. You remember? When I told you that that wasn't you, you weren't that monstrous thing inside of you that spoke to you?"
Despite the biting tone behind her words, she was trying desperately to mask the pain that was shown through her body language, cupping her hands close to her chest, folded into each other so they wouldn't fidget.
"You're one of the only few people in this whole world I can trust, you know. And I do, so much. If you were to ask me anything, you know I'd tell you because every inch of my heart tells me to trust you," Jasmine's words were enough to make herself cringe then, "and I don't know what upsets me more right now. The idea that you feel that turning to this thing that you fought off for so long is a good idea for help, or the fact that you clearly don't trust me enough to tell me what's going on and what your apparent 'reasons' are for doing what you are."
