Time to try something different. The prompts I was using previously was definitely made for a single person in mind. I had to make too many contrivances to use the prompts for my characters since they don’t take place in current day. Instead, I’ve lately been listening to a podcast called Writing Excuses. At the end of each podcast, they end it with a writing prompt for which the listeners can use and then write about.

I’ve started collecting a few of them and I’ll do random ones for a while. Maybe I’ll start doing the current ones, not sure about that yet. I’ll also try to do more in a week. I spent more time trying to find a replacement tool than writing this week.

Character: Jariq Masters and Sakura Haru
Prompt: Two different characters, two different magic systems...

Jariq tried to calm Sakura down. "You've got the wrong guy, it wasn't me." He waved his hands frantic with refusal. "I just landed here twenty minutes ago. I couldn't have been there!" Sakura frowned. He noted and tried to lower his tone. "I don't even know where 'there' is...."

"LIAR!" She pushed out her arms out in front of her. Where her hands met, a ball of energy grew and shot out at Jariq. To her astonishment, he caught the ball in his hand and saw it slowly shrink in his grasp. After it disappeared, he went back to being submissive. However, she would have nothing of it and shot two at once. He caught both with one hand with an amount of speed that she couldn't follow. "How?" Her arms dropped to her sides. She felt weak and confused.

"Are we okay?" Jariq kept his hands down. Sakura nodded. He slowly backed away and picked up his white dufflebag. As he stood up, he could hear her figuratively boil over. 'Oh shit..' He then had a realization. Being black, his encounter prior to her was a common occurrence, but here, it was especially rare. He could get angered himself about getting racially profiled, or he could try and put out the fire before it got too hot. "The guy you are looking for is already under arrest!" He winced. He already knew she was short-tempered under stress. He turned his back toward her and tried to get the attention of another officer. "Hey Security! Can I get some help here! She is looking for the guy you arrested!" There was no response. He knew they said they were understaffed, but there were only a few pedestrians around that were fleeing the scene. 'Shit!' 
He could feel a chill run down his spine. He felt her drawing a lot of energy in attempts to challenge his ability. To him, it seemed endless. Albeit, he has spent little time with people with skills like hers. "Turn around!" Jariq did as instructed. "Down on the ground!" He shook his head no as he saw her entire body shine with energy. "I said down on the ground!" She extended her right hand with her palm facing him. With no response she shot another projectile at him. His hand glowed for an instant and he slapped the shot back at her. She panicked and then shot like crazy back at him, causing his reflected shot to explode.
Jariq easily avoided her shots, but his concern was for the few people that were still around. They hid behind barriers, but he had no idea which of them could protect themselves if any of them. "Stop it! There are other people here!" She continued to fire. Jariq then circled around her with incredible speed. He started running from behind a trashcan. His speed was so great that the trashcan was sucked into a vacuum and toppled over. 
He grabbed her from behind. Under her arms. "Stop please, you are mistaken." She shrieked and he saw an arch of electricity jump from her head to her shoulder. He let go and tried to run away, but he wasn't faster than light. Electricity shot out her body and shot at him like a lightning bolt. That energy was absorbed as well, but not willingly. His body failed him and he collapsed to the ground.
