Chaos & Euphoria
Chapter 1:
It was obvious, if they knew anything at all about me they would know for a fact that I could read their minds at that very moment. I knew they were coming so I had to work quickly. I grabbed my duffel bag and threw it onto my bed. I pushed some hair behind my ear as I shoved some clothes into the bag. Now, I ran to the bathroom, grabbing the essentials. I could hear their footsteps as they ran down the hall to my door.
"Police! Open up!" a man yelled. I just shook my head, packed my things, and walked over to my window.
'I hope the guys remember the use the tazer as soon as we get it' The man at the door thought as I opened the window.
"Miss? We don't want to hurt you…" he said loudly and the door busted open.
At that moment I had never been so scared in my entire life. It seemed that everything slowed down as my eyes glided shut. Time stood still. Pieces of wood from the door frame stopped in thin air. I turned to look back at the chaos frozen behind me, then smirked to myself. They were idiots to think that they could stop me. A mind reader and a freezer of time and space.
'Alright, let's get out of here' I thought to myself, throwing my bag onto the fire escape below me, then hopping out the window myself beside it. I winced when my ankle popped, but immediately it snapped back into place, healing itself; as if it had never happened.
I climbed down the fire escape and started to run down the street, weaving through the crowds of people. I closed my eyes, concentrated on moving time again. I had only recently figured out how to work this particular power. It all started when I was thirteen.
Everything was like a normal day, until the point my temper frayed and I ran away. I was running across the highway and, like the normal pre-teen, not paying attention to my surroundings. A large truck suddenly slammed into me. You might be thinking, 'well, aren't you dead?'. (Yes, I can read your mind, it's one of my powers.) As crazy as it sounds…I healed. Everything was put back the way it was supposed to be, and I didn't even have to try. The past five years I have acquired two inhuman abilities to go with the first one. Freezing time and reading minds, which of course come in handy quite often.
It seemed so long ago that everything was so simple. Now, just about six years later, I am being chased down by National security and the FBI. I looked around and sighed. None of them were in sight which was good, I guess. I decided to get some coffee before I headed out. I needed something to keep me going.
"What would you like?" A woman asked me. I smiled sweetly.
"Uhm, a French vanilla decaf latte." I said to her.
"Foam?" she questioned.
"Yes, please" I said to her, pulling some money out of my pockets and spilling change everywhere.
"Shit" I cursed under my breath as I bent down to pick it up.
I placed the change back into my pocket and waltzed over to the other side of the cabinet to pick up my latte. I brought the cup to my lips and sighed in content. It would be best if I started walking now. I walked out of the coffee shop and pulled my hood up over my head. I kept my eyes down, my mind open. I really should have been paying attention to where I was walking.
"Oh, shit! So sorry!" I said when I bumped into someone. My hood fell back in the process.
"Watch where the fuck you're going!" he yelled at me. I looked past his anger and into his mind. 'I'm five minutes pregnant' he thought to himself. I giggled a little. "I'm so sorry" I repeated, trying to contain my amusement. "Whatever," he said coldly, then walked off.
Keeping my bag high on my shoulder I kept walking forward, smiling to myself. But my smile soon faded when I saw men looking around a short distance away.
'She's around here somewhere, we'll be in so much trouble if we don't catch her' one of them thought.
I crossed the street trying to escape their prying eyes. I pulled my hood back up and sighed. I hoped that all this would be over soon, I didn't know how much longer I could keep running. I guess I'm going to have to do the one thing that might get them off my tail for a while.
Move.
As much as I despised the thought of it, it seemed like the only logical escape at this time. "Hey you! Don't move!" someone yelled and I turned to see who they were talking to when I realized, it was me. I began to walk quickly through the crowded New York streets.
"Get back here!"He yelled and thats when I realized if I didn't freeze time they would catch me. I really didn't feel like being tortured and or poked and prodded at today so I closed my eyes making everything once again..Slow down then come to a complete halt.
I squeezed through the people as they stood motionless. More or less like a cardboard cut out.
'You should be good now...' I told my self as I walked up to the subway, closing my eyes once again setting time back in its normal pace.
'When did she get here?' I heard someone think and I saw a elderly man watching me as if he knew something. I wasn't about to stand around all day and find out so I ran down into the subway station.
When I sat down on the subway seats I felt like people where watching me, as if I were under observation. I kept my gaze downward, trying to open my thoughts so I could hear theirs.
'What is she staring at?'
'I'm gonna be later for work now...'
'I'm so tired of the damn nagging its all I hear anymore. Maybe..Wait..Why is she looking at me like that?'I quickly looked down and closed my eyes. He kept watching me but when the Train stopped her got off, and I stayed on.
When I finally got off the train I was closer to New Jersey than I was before. More like right the state board but yeah. I kept walking but stopped when I saw a ATM. I walked over to it and then hit it knowing full well that if I with drawled some money they would trace it then find me again. I
"Mame..Is everything okay?" A woman asked me and I turned smiling at her.
"Just realized I left my card at home." I told her and she smiled back.
"Well thats not good."She said to me.
'Freak...' Is what she thought.
'Just keep walking...' I urged my self, pushing people out of my way as I reached my stop. This was it this is where I started on my journey to a new home. I walked to the bus station ticket place and bought a ticket for Nevada, that would keep them off my trail for at least a little while.
Hopefully.
