What The Luck!?

Chapter 400 - 400. Knights



"What would you even improve on if you have your gear upgraded?" Jane felt that Cara had the highest quality gear out of all of them. She had gear that was made to send her voice around her and even had multiple settings for the durable speakers in her jackets. It was the ideal gear for her when it came to sound manipulation. 

"Miniature drones. If I can get those flying drones with little speakers I could manipulate sound from very far away. Especially when I have a better mastery over my super power." This actually made a lot of sense. Jane could see how it would be beneficial for Cara to have a longer range. At the moment her sound could only travel so far. But if it could go even further and was able to be manipulated then she could easily handle some very dangerous situations safely. 

"That sounds really cool. I bet you could use them to spy and mess up villain plans too." For whatever reason, Arts\' mind went right to spy movies It may have been the fact that he got stuck in an internet look showing cool spy moves or even the fact that he always thought spies were secret heroes. But at the end of the day, he realized that Cara had a serious possibility to become a sort of spy if she got little speaker drones. 

"To be honest, you would probably be the best at recon if we can\'t send a person in. If you can control sound you can potentially get past certain security challenges. Not to mention confuse guards and allow for them to chase fake intruders while you sneak in for evidence collection." Since Art had ended up sharing the same spy videos he found in the group Sammy was also jumping on the train. 

"Both are good points but I think She would use it to help everyone in a fight from afar or scout out survivors in a natural disaster. You know how hard it is to send in people to search crumbled buildings or caves. Using a drone with speaker and receiver would let her contact people in ways that others can\'t" It was smart for Asher to level out the wild ideas that Art and Sammy were about to continue. He knew that they could end up on a tangent for the rest of the day if he didn\'t step in. 

"Well, in any case. It is something I will save up for and keep an eye out for. I want to get this on my own." The idea of having her own gear modified by the things she found made Cara feel more at one with her gear and super powers. It was a mental block she wanted to hold on to since it made things more personal and controlled. "Jane, what about you? Your gear is pretty simple. I always thought you would need something more." 

Jane had not expected to be put on the spot so suddenly. But she had been thinking of small improvements. Unknown to her thigh, the other students had started to listen in on the group\'s conversation since they had already made their notes about Louis and Sammy\'s gear. Their desire for a challenge and new project greatly exceeded their mental strength to stop themselves from trying to experiment. 

"Hmm. well. There are some areas that my scales don\'t cover. Those are weaker and if I take a hit when I am shifted it still hurts a lot. I was thinking of testing my scales for toughness then trying to find a way for my gear to be just as tough as them in those sports. It would make me a lot more relaxed in my fighting style." This was true. The entire group watched each other train and knew the habits they had, Jane had the habit of protecting her sides and stomach along with her inner arms. This was because when she shifted the scales really only covered her outward facing body parts. 

"That sounds perfect for you. I want to see what you fight like when you aren\'t trying to protect yourself so much. It always seems like you are holding back from big moves." The role of At\'s eyes was enough for Jane to want to test him in a sparring match right there. They had been a lot more even in sparring and training lately which made Jane angry. She used to be a lot further ahead of Art but he had doubled down and focused himself so well that he had exceeded his previous best and was going to surpass Jane. 

"And just because Art is being rude I want to have something to brace my claws that lets them scrape in to my opponent harder." The glare Jane had was just for the respective reason of revenge against Art. Bit it was also because Jane had a fear that her claws would become injured and when she shifted back to normal she would be painfully missing a fingernail. 

"Alos, my gloves always stretch and aren\'t going back to normal after I shift." The problem here was the wearing of the elastic and Jane\'s muscles changed and increased. It was to be expected but most of the time a shifter had to pay a higher price for special fabrics. It was just a reality of how the clothing they needed was different. 

"Ha! I will fix all of that for you. Come with me!"  girl nearby latched on to Janes\' arm and dragged her away toward a work table. There was muffled rambling from the table but Jane started to look excited after just a few seconds. 

"Well, Jane found a friend. I guess the rest of us are pretty set then?" Asher had no idea what he would need since his super power pretty much provided what he needed for him. 

"Of course I am good. I learned how to high metal in my gear ages ago. I could do without modifications for a long time. Since I need to learn to mold and bend metal to protect my body I will keep working on that. When I can manipulate an entire set of armor I will basically be an invincible knight." And now Art had shifted in to thinking he was a medieval knight. For some reason, Asher wasn\'t even surprised by this. 

"Hey, what do you guys think? Did the lightning look cool or what?" Louis had made it back from changing and was hyper. He was showing a lot more energy and joy than usual. The feeling of having his lightning wrap around his body and protect him was amazing. It was more than he had ever imagined. "I\'m pretty sure if I train with that gear, eventually I will be able to do that without the gear at all. It\'s like having training wheels." 

"Not as good as mine! I can almost fly with mine! You had to have seen it. It was amazing. I was lighter than a feather. If only I could ho,d a brick and fall faster when I wanted to. But I will just have to learn to make the wind push my kicks and punches harder." Sammy was even more energetic about her gear. 

"If you manage to control the wind so well that it makes you punch fly harder then I think you could be pretty over powered." Cara knew exactly what it would mean if Sammy figured this out. It would mean Sammy had the maneuverability and speed to surprise everyone before she landed a massive hit to any weak point they had. 

"Asher. Are you getting new gear? I thought you would want to improve something. Maybe you should look for some tougher gear so you can take a hit better. Or maybe you can get some gear that lets you carry gadgets." laura had chimed in again while eating an orange that no one had seen her with before. 

"I thought about all that. But come on. I am lucky, right? If I get gear like that it\'s an insult to my super power kind of." This argument didn\'t appear to win in anyones\' joy. They were all looking at Asher as if he had just said something ridiculous. "Fine. Fine. I will ask someone to make it tougher to increase my defense. But no suit of armor!" Asher was not about to follow Art and end up looking like someone who could barely walk and needed to fight a dragon to win the heart of a princess. 

"Wait, do we need to figure something out for Jackson?" There was the question that stopped the entire group in their tracks. Jackson had nothing. His costume was bare. 

"Why? He has his strength and can do better than all of us in the wild. Just get him the first aid stuff her needs." The simple solution came from Cara who had faith that Jackson could handle himself with his strength and speed.. Not to mention his critical thinking.
