The base is nearly empty. Tara is around somewhere, Trevor believes, throwing herself head-first into her work, and Sand lives on base, but everyone else is gone. Chimp is probably drinking himself stupid, Caleb's probably already looking into lawyers for Amelia, Travis is God-knows-where, and as Trevor tries to concentrate on the movement and flow of his Tai-Chi routine he tries to avoid the thought that he doubts even God knows where Corrine is.
The movement of his body and his chi falters for a second, but he recovers his center and continues. Most people would probably be surprised to see Trevor "Hotshot" Cole practicing tai-chi, but that's another thought to ignore as he loses himself in the movements. When the last thoughts of the fight, the aftermath, and the emptiness slip away Trevor finally feels his chi move with him. His eyes are closed, but he doesn't need them to know that his powers have also falling in sync with his body's rhythm. Even as he pushes and flows with his chi he can feel the fire moving with him, and loses himself in the flow. The spell Magique cast on him falls away completely for the first time, and Trevor can't help but smile as his body at last reaches harmony.
