Nicolette looked out the window, it was raining outside.
She loved the rain, but why this morning, she had to walk to school her dad was well not capable of taking her to school today, her mom. She didn't like to talk about her mom.
Nicolette got dressed and slipped her shoes on, quietly she grabbed her backpack of the counter and exited the house headed towards the school.
She walked as quickly as she could, she lived about 20 minutes from the school so it would take her about an hour to walk.
She was almost at the school when she heard a loud squealing, she turned to see a SUV hydroplaning towards her.
Without a thought she put her hands up to defend herself waiting for the impact of the car. After a second when the impact hadn't come she looked up shocked at the sight in front of her.
The water that had accumulated from the road was floating in the air and the car had miraculously come to a hault. The ground around her was completely dry and the rain was no longer falling on her or the car. The driver of the car looked like they were in just as much shock and Nikki was. In another second all the water had crashed back to the earth and began to fall on them both again.
Nikki without a second of hesitation turned and ran home. She ran all the home without stopping once.
She rushed into her bedroom, slamming the door and locking it.
This was new.
She had been unique since she was ten. These things had grown out of her back, at first she thought she had a disease some form of cancer or something like that, but as they got bigger. They sprouted feathers.
She had wings, large wings you could say they were like an angels, but Nikki thought she was a monster. Her father hadn't taken too kindly to her inhuman manifestation.
He tried often to take her out of the world, now she was even more of a monster.
The water it protected her, she didn't know how but it had.
She was only a freshman in high school, why was this happening to her?
No one else knew, not that she had friends that she could tell anyway.
Nicolette laid on her bed and cried into her pillow, was it so much to ask to be normal?
Nicolette picked her head up and looked at her bedside table, a vase of purple iris' sat next to her alarm clock.
She pulled the flowers out and concentrated on the water in the vase it rippled and she focused more. She was able to pull about an inch bubble of water out of the vase. She gasped a little it splat everywhere.
She picked the flowers back up to put them in the vase when the little buds on them grew and bloomed. She dropped the flowers.
Took a deep breath.
Why?
There had to be someone in this world that wishes they had something like she had, why couldn't God have given it to them.
Was she being tortured on purpose?
Meanwhile
I got out of my explorer and walked over to wear the young girl had been standing. She single handedly stopped the rain.
I have to call the authorities, she was one of those freaks!
who knows what else she could do.
I pulled out my cell phone. "Hi I need to report a mutant sighting"
I paused as the woman responded.
"It was a young girl walking towards the Linden High School, she had long dark hair, and she stopped the rain and put her hands up in a position, I thought she was going to attack me" Okay so maybe that was a little lie.
"She ran off east, I think she went back home."
"Alright thank you, I don't want my kids running around when there's things like that out here making it dangerous for them"
I paused again.
"Thank you for understanding, If I see her anywhere else I'll get more information thanks again. Buh bye"
