Hidden

(written June 14th)

It's been a while since I've used my abilities. I know that I should be practicing and working on it but it's hard to do. Not only did the legislation pass the ban of promicin but they have also included the no use of promicin induced abilities. How wrongful is that?

I feel that now without the use of my ability, that I am only half a person. I don't feel whole.

Lucky enough, people don't have an issue with me wearing the black glove. If anyone asks, I just tell them that I was attacked by a black bear last Friday (June 8th) while on a camping trip. If they ask to see the scar, I take off my glove and there it is: 4 slash marks from a bear's paw- deep wounds but still healing.

I could not go to the hospital for fear that if they ran blood tests then it would show the Promicin in my system. So instead, with some medical knowledge behind me, I was able to patch it all up as best as I could. The wound gives me a good excuse for wearing the glove. I guess that bear really did me a favor.

Sometimes it's still hard to believe that the legislation was passed, but what can we do? I have no solution and considering the job I have, it would be unjust to risk it. While I am a middle ground for NTAC and the 4400/Promicin takers, I have not been on the job long enough to find some kind of method that can put everyone on equal footing.I have been able to use my ability on some aspects but the most obvious part of my ability has to not be used at all.

I just hope that some day all of this can be overcome. But right now that's probably asking too much. Some day though, some day.
