ch. 1 - my saddest day and welcome to GA

The clouds stirred in the sky making the sky look grey. But alas this is how its always been. These gray clouds followed me everywhere and it snows wherever i go. Before i could control it but that was before IT happened. Now i feel equally as cold inside as the snow and ice i make. I had nothing left ever since my parents died leaving me with nothing but the house and a letter. It was a cold afternoon my parents told me to stay inside they'd be right back but they never came back. My aunt had to hold me back to keep from looking for them.

'Crystal... your parents are dead' Her aunt replied with sadness obvious in her voice and eyes closed. For the first time in 6 years I cried. More than i ever did before. A few hours later i read the letter.

Its time we told you the truth. We both have alices. We just never told you about them till now but im afraid its too late. This made my stomach churn. They were hiding secrets from me? With a sad sigh i continued reading the tears from earlier still clouding my vision.

Your mom has the ice alice allowing her to control snow and ice and make sudden chills out of no where. While i have the 'steal' alice meaning i can take other's alices. We were hoping we'd get to see you grow up and which alice you had... but i guess we'll never know. We'll both miss you...

signed,

mom and dad

The tears from earlier returned and i cried even more.

Just a usual day in my life... But it wasnt as usual as it seemed. Once i arrived home from a 'walk' which usually consisted on freezing a tree or some rocks to get my anger and sadness out people in black were at my door. 'Who are you guys? ' i asked with barely any interest. It had been a long time since i even cared but oh well.

'We come from gauken highschool, a school for people with 'gifts' and -' He was cut off by me.

'Get to the point' i said starting to get irritated and you really dont wanna see me when im irritated.

'We've come to take you away to there to train your powers' The guy in black said looking irriated at being interrupted.

'Over my dead body' i growled and my outfit formed ice on the outside of the skirt that looked like layers of ice now and the long sleeve top.

'We can use whatever means necessary' he warned but i had nothing to worry about i already have nothing.

'Too late for that i already got nothing so blackmail isnt a option' my icy blue eyes grew even icier. 'You already said it didnt you? you already have nothing whats left to lose? ' dang he was good at persuasion.

'Besides you might make some new friends everyone there have powers too ' The word 'friend ' stuck in my mind. I never did fit in well but after i recieved my powers it got even worse if that was possible. I was a social outcast with no friends in the world which only added to the sadness of losing my parents. I had no one. All alone forever. I could tell i was wavering but i didnt let my expression lighten up.

'Fine ill go but let me pack first ' I glared but the guy looked satisfied.

I rummaged through my old stuff removing clothes my ipod - cant live without it - and all the stuff id need like toothpaste etc. Once the suitcase was filled. ( After about 50 tries and finally slamming it shut while sitting on it) i made my way to the guy.

'Thats all? ' he asked eyeing the suitcase dangling from my hand.

'I told you i had nothing ' i snarled but entered the truck anyways ( making sure to make the air icier for them of course) 'Will you stop that? im freezing! ' he exclaimed shivering.

'Why do you think its my fault? ' i glared but inside i was enjoying this

. 'your the ice alice here! ' he was still shivering and i had to bite my lip to keep from laughing.

'Tell it to the judge' i said rolling my eyes. He glared but stayed silent and went back to staring out the was going to be a long trip...
