Very smart (but lazy)

Amazing looks (not a power but hey, I gotta try)

Anti-socialness

Lies come easy, truth does not

Can talk my way out of bad situations

Not all of those are powers exactly, but I like to think they are. Those all sound awesome, don't they? Well I hate to burst your bubble but they're not awesome. They suck. Like, MAJOR suckage. All of those powers come with downsides. I lost my mother at age 12, I have terrible anxiety, and, the worst one, my eyes suck. I have to wear glasses. But other than that, I'm great.

And that is enough about me for now. The day I learned about all this started out normal enough. I woke up at 10 after staying up till 3 am the night before. Normally the only thing I would be doing on a day like this is avoiding homework. However, today I was meeting Charlie at Target. I never liked going out into public. It's just exhausting. I'm always looking around and observing people to think of all different scenarios that might happen. It's not great but at least I'm always prepared. So as I was walking to Target I thought someone was following but whenever I looked back, there wasn't anything. I knew something was up so I started walking faster. Throughout my life, I always wondered why there were these strange markings on my wrists. I always thought that they were just birthmarks. Anyways, eventually I was running down different side streets trying to shake my tail. When I thought that whoever was following was lost, I took a moment to catch my breath. A mistake apparently. I heard a whoosh, felt a strong pain on the back of my head and then darkness enveloped me.
