All I did was shake it off...

Cricket accidentally starts a house fire when she first wakes her element. He didn't even know that he had a power.  He thought he didn't have the DNA  for it. She tried to fling the fire off her but instead it just flung more fire around her room. Cricket doesn't like being homeless and searched for by the cops for 'commiting arson'.

Cricket... does not like his fire. He doesn't like the fact that he can't really control it and that it actives at high emotions (Even positive emotions). It's why she bottles up every single emotion that's too big. She feels like if she does this than there's less chance of a fire starting. (Really it just makes it worse when he does explode.)
