Niobe sat on a branch in the tree right next to the Gateway. She hummed to herself. "On my own... pretending he's beside me." She sang quietly. Leaning back a little, she closed her eyes. "All alone... I walk with him 'till morning." She thought about what life would be like outside the gate, with her family. She knew that they had abandoned her, but she wished so desperately for someone she knew would love and trust her, a parent, or a sibling. Niobe sighed. She didn't even know what her power was! Why should she have been taken away from her family for something that wasn't her fault?

Jake was riding through the forest on a deer made of ice. He was different, he was an ice conjurer. He could summon things made out of ice, he could make the world cold. His ice deer was fast. He stopped when he saw a girl, sitting alone. "Easy girl." He said to the deer. He hopped off the deer and walked over to her. "Watcha doing out here all alone?" He asked her.

Niobe jumped when she heard a boy's voice call out. she stopped singing, suddenly feeling slightly self-conscious. "Oh... Um, nothing really," she replied, hopping down from the tree.

"Well there has to be a reason you're out here." He said. "By the way, I'm Jack, but my friends call me Jack Frost, because I'm an ice conjurer, and you are?"

"I'm Niobe. I'm... I'm not really sure what I am." She took a small step towards Jack, her pale face taking on a slightly pinker shade.

"Nice to meet you Niobe. So, you don't know what your powers are, eh? Well, what can you do? For example, I know I'm an ice conjurer because..." He said, waving his hand in the air and making the ice deer come back.

She watched quietly as the frozen deer frolicked around. "Well, I can sing... but I don't really think that's a power." She sang a few notes under her breath, as quietly as possible.

"Well, if you don't have a power, why are you here?" He asked her.
(I lost my muse)

Niobe's face darkened and she lowered her eyes. "Well... my parents knew what it was, and they locked me up in here. I was only three. I barely remember it." Her shoulders sank. "I've lived here, all on my own, since then. I just wish I knew why."

He frowned. "That's terrible." Jack said. "My parents committed suicide in here. I've been alone for about 9 years. But, I've known my power since I was born. Some people say it's a curse, and I'm a freak, but I think it's a gift. Anyways, about your power, when you sing, does anything happen?" He asked.

"Not... not that I know of, but maybe..." Niobe frowned, her brow wrinkling in thought. She always sang when she was alone, and nothing had ever really happened. What could possibly be powerful about her singing?

"Well, try singing right now, something might happen." He said.
(My Muse!!! It's gone!!!!!!)

Niobe took a breath. "Do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men?" she sang, looking around. Nothing seemed to be happening. "It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again..." she continued singing, waiting to see if her power would show. (haha... I know the feeling  ) |

"Keep singing." He encouraged her.
(Make something happen please)

(okay)
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums, there is a life about to start when tomorrow comes." She continued to sing, and noticed Jack seeming to go into a trance-like state. "Jack?" She called, wondering what had happened.
(sorry that was kinda weird.. but yeah... after all her power is controlling men with her voice)
