He was fire I was ice complete opposites of each other but our broken lives are what brought
us together. In the beginning it was the lust that made him want to know me but then he
eventually he started to really care. But my question was if I let him in would somebody stop
this fallen angel from hitting the earth. My whole life had been I have always been the
outcast, nobody in middle school would talk to me and most of the time that's how I liked it.
Sometimes it would get lonely with nobody to talk to when life got rough. Who needs anybody
anyways I was better of by myself anyways , this way I could never get hurt. Nobody would
ever now the bruises the monster would put on my body or the scars I had that helped to
numb me. They never stayed long because my body would naturally heal them but the bruises
never faded for some reason. Not only could I heal myself but I could also freeze things, my
parents knew this but never about the wings. The ice queen many people called me if only
they knew how true it was. It was half way through the summer I got the note, I was invited to
attend a superhero school and learn about my powers. In the note it explained of how I was a
rare case because both of my parents where normal. I figured nothing could be worse then
going to High School with the same kids from middle school so I agreed. My parents wouldn't
care mom would be off with another lover and the monster would probably be at his high
paying CEO job.
The first day of school came and when the bus came I couldn't help but sigh at the
disappointment, but then again who was I kidding myself like they would really have a school
for super hero's. Finding that the back was empty I headed to the back, not really caring
where I was going I put my head on the window and fell asleep.
I was awaken by a jolt and as I looked out the window I could see the bus had driven off a
broke bridge and was staring to fall. But then with another Jolt began to fly, and for the first
time in a long time a small smile came to my face although it quickly went away. As we flew
through the air I watched as the clouds went by. The landing was a little bumpy but it didn't
bother me much. Heading out the door we where soon met by brunette kid who introduced
himself as Will Stronghold. Many of the new freshmen wo0o and ahhed about him but he
didn't look special to me. After explaining a few rules he lead us into the gym where the
principle welcomed us and then we waited to be placed. A gym teacher stood on a plat form
he was loud and mean to the weaker students, those who weren't hero's where in hero
support. Finally it was my turn he pointed to me and told me to walk onto the platform.
" Name?" Coach Boomer asked
" Ebony Mystic " I said
" Nope never heard of any one with that name, power kid" He asked
" I can fly and freeze things" I said
" Really well lets see you fly" He said hitting a button launching me off of the platform not
really expecting it I flew through the air and hit a pillar then hit the hard floor. It knocked the
wind out of me but I quickly got up even though I was sure at least one of my ribs where
broken but I knew they would heal quickly I walked back onto the platform .
" I thought you said you could fly" Coach Boomer asked agitated
" I can you idiot you just didn't give me a warning." I said
Taking off my zip up hoodie I was left in a tank top , I closed my eyes and as I did a pair of
pure white angel wings appeared on my back. Many people gasped including the man beside,
and then once again I was the freak of the school. With out a word he hit the button again
spreading my wings I did a few laps around the gym and then landed on the platform.
"Hero , do you need to see the nurse about before" He asked
" Nope I'm fine" I said
" Ok every one time for lunch and then back here for save the citizen" Coach Boomer said
This surprised everyone because usually it took two periods to place people but this time there
didn't seem to be that many freshmen. Quietly I followed everyone into the lunch room after
grabbing my stuff. As I passed the freshmen I could hear some of the whispering and every
once in a while you would hear the word Angel. Finally I got to the cafeteria all the tables
where full so instead I headed outside to sit under a tree. I knew nobody would bother me I
pulled out my journal and began to rite.
Im livin in the shadow

some where deep inside of me
where no one can see

a part not yet dealed.

When I am done I look at my watch and realize it is almost time for lunch to end so I head
inside and then head toward the gym.
