Bad Luck: Coke (Rain)

[Beatrice Booker]

All Beatrice Booker wanted was a Coke. Just. One. Coke! Was that so much to ask? She'd been standing in front of the vending machine for 15 minutes now, fighting with it and had lost $3. Not all of the dollars either. The first was a dollar, the second was quarters, and the last a poor assortment of dimes and nickels which she had to get onto her HANDS AND KNEES to find! Was a soda so much to ask at this stupid establishment?!

Beat was livid. She could feel herself fuming, the withdrawal of sugar and chemicals was making her touchy and a tad bit grumpy. Her hair was a mess now, thanks to her hands tirelessly racking at her roots as she tried to think of a way to get the damn soda out. Not to mention her money.

She kept pressing the button to get it back but it didn't work.

"Come on!" She groaned banging her fists against the thick plastic front. "I fed you now you feed me! This is how this works! We don't have to be enemies we can be friends!" She said trying to coax the vending machine, giving it a soft pet in apology for banging on it. 

She pressed the button again. Nothing.

"Damn it!" She said and kicked it, immediately regretting her decision as she hopped and groaned holding her foot. 

[Rain Tseung]

Rain walked into the student lounge, she was coming here quite often this past couple weeks. Why was that? She guessed because she had to eat and this place was usually quiet… Usually, There was one girl that was making a bit of a racket once Rain had stepped inside the warm area, oh! That’s another reason why she liked the student lounge, it was warm! She started to have a sudden dislike for winter thanks to her powers, or well their weaknesses. She got so depressed during winter, she didn’t know why, she used to love winter and the snow, but now she just got sad. Not to mention she got cold easier than any normal person would, that is also thanks to her power’s weaknesses.

Walking over to the girl she realized she was having trouble with the soda machine. She frowned "are you okay? Should I get the nurse?" Even though she really didn't want to go back outside.. She looked at the machine. “Is it not working again? It does that every once in awhile… The soda you are trying to get might be out and that’s why you’re not getting anything..” She went into her bag and took out a thing of poweriad, holding it out for the girl to drink. “Here! Don’t worry, it’s new, I haven’t even opened it yet.” She had sympathy for the girl; she had been in this situation too.
