Reboot

With a flash of white light, Akash was back in the Initiate's room and I had a bone to pick with him. 

"You weren't kidding when you said your powers let you do pretty much anything you wanted with your body, were you?" I asked, suppressing a scoff that probably would have turned the conversation nasty fast. 

"Why would I have joked about such a thing?" Akash asked, dismissing the drone that emerged from the wall to scan him before sauntering over to join the only two remaining initiates- myself and Yr'Arl. 

"Turn of phrase, mate," I replied. "What I'm saying is, you've been holding out on us ever since the battle royale, and I guess a little piece of me is just sort of wondering why." 

Akash sat down on one of the beanbags and remained silent for a few moments, clearly pondering his next move.
