Complicated Love
Chapter 1
Some say it would so cool to have super human parents. Well it's not all it's cracked up. Me and my brother know of the trials and tribulations although there can be some fun aspects of having super human parents can do. I'm Sophie Stronghold and my brother is Will Stronghold and where the twin's of the Commander and Jet Stream, also known as Steve and Josie Stronghold, they are the greatest superhuman hero couple on the planet. By day they live as the Strongholds the best real-estate agents in the area but whenever duty calls they are Commander and Jet Stream the world's strongest crime fighting duo. There are some perks to having superhuman parents which can include travelling of the world and the passing down of powers, however in a lot case having superhuman parents is usually extremely difficult especially for me and my brother. This is because we have to live up to the expectations that has been set by our parents that the world and them want us to live up to, and that's hard on kids especially on me and my brother as Will has no powers and there me who has too many powers. How much worse can things get? Oh yeh that right now we have to start Sky High a place that helps superhuman kids learn to control their powers.
The morning of the first day of the rest of my life finally came around the day that I, Sophie Stronghold started Sky High the school for the extra special superhuman children. I woke up on that day in my room decorated in my own art creations in black, pink and white and I smiled as I drew back my pink curtains to see that the weather was magnificent and the sun was shining and the birds were signing and I was begin to think that everything was going to be okay until I heard it 'BANG!' "Oh god Will not again." I rushed to my brother's room and there he was stuck under a bell bar although it did only have low weights on the bell bar so it wouldn't hurt him, but even then he still couldn't pick it up. I sighed, "Will when are you going to learn? You can't force your powers on you" I said as I picked the bell bar off him and set it down on the floor. "It's easy for you to say Soph" he said with a grimace "you already got your power your oh so magnificent water element, so why can't you just leave me alone." By then he was glaring at me so I just said "Fine" and went back to my room. That's my brother for you he can't handle the pressure put on him by our parents and the world so he tries to force himself to be like them wearing the exact same colour clothing as our parents red, white and blue and the same hair cut as my dad back in his olden days, even though that will not make his powers come to him any faster by acting like our parents, take me for example i don't act like my parents yet I have my power's. You see what my family don't known about me is the extent of my powers such as the fact that I have control over all element's not just water element, the reason they don't know this is because well I just haven't told them yet, I made the right choice in not to telling them especially now that Will has no power it would already make him hate me even more then he already dose, because I gained my power before him well my water element at the age of six and since technically he is the eldest twin he should have got his power first, however if had listened to mum he would have know that girls (aka me) develop their powers faster as they mature quicker than boys. "Sophie get up and get dressed it's your first day of Sky High" shouted my mum up the stairs "okay" I shouted down and, so my superhero life begins.
When I got back to my room I straightened my chocolate brown hair and put on some light black eyeliner and mascara and added some clear lip gloss to my lips and got dressed in my black skin tight genes that I had decorated myself by adding some glitter to them and a light blue t-shirt and went down to the kitchen. When I got to the kitchen I listened into my mum and dad, "oh Steve wouldn't it be great if we won that trip to Hawaii if we keep up the real-estate deals" said my mum grinning, "yeh it would Josie, we haven't been to Hawaii since we defeated our first villain together" said my dad kissing my mum afterwards, really its half seven in the morning I don't need to be seeing that. So I walked in and said "god mum, dad I don't need to see that especially before breakfast" mum smiled at me why dad just ignored me. You see that's the thing about my parents, dad is devoted completely and only too Will were as mum is devoted to both us. So therefore me and mum have a much stronger relationship then me and dad in fact I don't think I have had a proper talk with my dad since I was six specifically the day I got my water element power. "Good morning honey, are you ready for your first day at Sky High" mum said as dad said "I'll go and get Will what could he possibly be doing in that room he's going to be late." I sighed as he walked past he always ignores me. "Just ignore him Soph" my mum said "one day he'll realise what he has done to alienate you and then he'll be sorry because you could have already grown up and gone at least you've got me." Mum was hugging me now I loved mums hugs they were so warm and comforting. Then we heard the a knock on the door and as both me and mum looked at the door that was a glass door to see both mine and Will's best friend Layla waving at us through the window both me and my mum smiled and let Layla in.
"Hi Sophie, hi Mrs Stronghold." Said Layla. "Hi Layla honeys how are you? Are you looking forward to Sky High?" asked my mum. I said "mum we are going to enjoy Sky High the real thing I'm worried about is how we're going to survive at a school full of superhero's and Villains" Layla was nodding along with me and also said "what I'm worried about is the fact that the food at Sky High is supposed to be really bad" me and Layla laughed. This is what it is supposed to be like having fun and enjoying life until I heard it "here's the new superhero our rising star Will Stronghold" my dad and Will were smiling at each other and then he spotted me and Layla and said "hey guys are you ready to go?" Both me and Layla smiled at each other then smiled at him and nodded at him Layla said "why not we have to be ready for the future," she said while smiling "I mean it doesn't mean that we have to be superheroes, we could be environmentalists or healers, something that does not necessarily mean that we have to use our powers to defeat Villains but maybe to save people." That's what I love about Layla she always loves to help people all the time, I mean she knows about Will having no powers and she tries to give hints to our parents about his situation, it starts t work until the phone rings and by the 'phone' I mean the hero's phone my dad answered the phone and said "yes Mister Mayor we'll be there soon" he shut off the phone and said to mum "there's a giant robot down town we have to go" my mum look so upset and said "really I wanted to see the kids off I remember the first day of kindergarten when neither Sophie or Will would let go of my leg" "mum!" me and will shouted. "Oh okay I'll go." After they had gone we decided to finish our breakfast and turned on the TV to hear the news say "the Commander and Jet Stream have made it on to the scene of the giant robot in down town, Jet Stream has just let the commander go onto the giant robot, and it's been took out by one single blow from the super strong Commander. Is the commander going to pluck a souvenir from the Commander and Jet Streams newest defeat, yes he is the Commander has taken the eye from the robot, what would we do without this famous super couple?" "Oh great even more to live up to" said Will "alright come on you two lets go to the bus stop" we all got our bags and left the house while Will locked the door behind us, here we go this is the being of the rest of my life.
