billie jenkins is the god damn ultimate power (billiejen) wrote in angelgrove,
She'd been here for how long now? And no matter how many spells he came up with, or how many times she tried to project herself back, it just didn't work. Frustrated, that's what she was. Very frustrated. She could project herself across the park, or across the town, but not back home. Something was stopping her. She hated when powers she didn't understand screwed with her.
Even if she couldn't make her power work, that didn't mean she didn't try. Hard. And all the time. Practice was supposed to make you stronger, right? Billie had spent most of the day practicing in the park, with varied results. After wearing herself out, she needed to take a break. Or at least clam herself down. If she got any more annoyed, she wouldn't be able to concentrate.
So Billie started walking. It was when she was passing by a basketball court that she stopped. Maybe it was because he kept missing the shot, or maybe it was his hair. Either way, it got her attention.
"Try again." she said, speaking a bit loudly so he would know she was talking to him. "I bet you make it this time." she'd make sure of it, guiding a ball into a basketball net was easy enough to do.
