In the midst of slacking off, Jude had witnessed Axel and Jay getting pulled apart by two soldiers. Boy would that leave some unsolved tension for later... Well, no matter. Jude had things of his own to worry about. Like doing nothing until lunch. Though, he supposed he could do something. Just... something small. His eyes traveled over the ground to an empty water bottle, laying abandoned after someone's training pass. With some small hint of confidence, he stretched out his arm, focusing every single thought on the object. "Make your mind a sword", he could recall the trainers saying. Hone it. He could control it. But as he pressed his finger together and the plastic began to crumble, other thoughts came rushing to his mind. Images of his bones breaking. He flinched. With a loud noise, the concrete broke beneath the bottle.
His heart was beating like crazy as he stared down at the dent.
