DISCLAIMER: i dont own sky high or disney or anything like that. This story is entirely my idea, although someone has probably used this idea already, if it is i swear to God it was unintentional.
Pretty please review! i love reading reviews.
Destiny walked along side her best friend Warren. They were walking through the corridors of Sky High, it was their first day and they, along with thirty or so other students were heading towards the school gym where they would go through power placement.
Destiny had butterflies in her stomach, her mum had told her about power placement and unfortunately so had her older brother Charlie. Her mother had told her there was nothing to worry about and that with her powers she was breeze through it. Charlie however, had told her about many different challenges she would have to face, the embarrassing things she would have to do and talk about etc.
Destiny knew he was only joking and playing around but when she was only minutes away from doing her power placement test, she couldn't help but wonder if maybe there could be some truth behind what Charlie had said.
Warren glanced over at Destiny and smirked at the look she had on her face. He had seen it many times before. It was a look that Warren could now spot quite easily. Her eyebrows slightly furrowed, her jaw tensed and switched a little, she blinked a lot more than usual and sometimes, when she was especially anxious she bit her lip.
At this moment Destiny was biting her lip. Warren chuckled to himself a little and put his hand on her shoulder, getting her attention. "Hey" he said a she turned to look at him "It's ok, you have an awesome power and you are going to make hero easy. And if you don't I'll toast them all until they change their minds"
Destiny laughed and nodded. They kept walking until the group of new students gathered in the gym. A woman wearing white, was waiting for them. When they all settled down the woman spoke "Welcome to everyone, I am Principal Powers and I am happy to see so many new faces joining us at Sky High. I trust that you will all have a wonderful experience in your years here at this school and it is my great pleasure to be the first to wish you the very best of luck" she smiled at the new students the lifted her arms and shouted "Comets away!" Principal Powers turned into a big ball of light that flew out of the gym.
"Alright you lot, listen up" said a man who had been standing beside Principal Power "I am coach Boomer, and I will be running your power placements. When I call your name you will step up here and show your power and yes, you will do so in front of the entire class." there was a groan from many of the students but Boomer ignored it and continued "Once you have done this I will determine whether you shall be a hero or a side kick. Are we clear?" a few people mumbled 'yes' "I said are we clear!" Boomers voice was one thousand times louder than normal and nearly knocked over a couple of the students.
"Yes Coach Boomer!" they all shouted back, apart from Destiny and Warren who were both trying to smother their laughter because of on boy whose glasses had been smashed by Boomer's voice.
"Alright" Boomer said looking down at his list, either he hadn't noticed Warren and Destiny laughing or he chose to ignore it. "First up, Claire Hammers"
One girl who had been standing nearby walked up the stairs and stood looking at Boomer, "Go ahead Hammers" he told her. She took a deep breath the squeezed her eyes shut and suddenly she grew 2 feet taller. "That's it?" Boomer asked and Claire nodded. "Sidekick" he said as she shrunk back to normal size.
Boomer marked people off his list one by one until he got to "Destiny Glover" she looked over to Warren who nodded at her then she walked up toward Coach Boomer. "What's your power" Destiny raised her hand and frost started to fly out of her palms, within seconds the entire gym was completely frozen over. Boomer looked around "Not bad, Hero"
Destiny smiled at Warren who was giving her the 'I told you so' look. She went and stood next to him again until he was called up. He ignited his arms and made the flames more and more powerful until all the ice Destiny had created melted away. "Hero" Boomer said.
Once to power placement was complete, Warren, Destiny and the others all went to the cafeteria for lunch. Warren and Destiny went and sat at an unoccupied table and talked about the other new students and their powers. They had just started laughing about Boomer when Destiny felt an arm wrap around her shoulder. She looked to her side to see who had their arm around her. She saw that the hand was attached to an arm that was stretched across the cafeteria.
Lash the boy another new student walked over to Destiny returning his arm to normal length and sat down next to her. "What's happenin' baby?" he said to her
"Oh wow, fantastic pick up line. Very original. Thank you for that, goodbye" Destiny said sarcastically and pushed his arm off her shoulders.
Lash smirked "the name Lash, this is Speed" someone ran over at super speed to Destiny's other side "'Sup" he said.
"Listen why don't you just leave her alone ok? She's not interested" Warren told Lash.
"Oh I get it, she's your girl" Lash said.
"No she's my friend" Warren answered with a threatening tone trying to get him to back off.
"Yeah?" Lash asked calmly "Then how about you butt out hothead!" he yelled but then laughed and asked casually "hey Peace, I've been meaning to ask you how's daddy going in prison?"
Warren suddenly got a look on his face that scared even Destiny and made Lash and Speed stop laughing immediately. Warren stood slowly and leaned closer to them. "Nobody talks about my father, you got that?" Both Lash and Speed nodded at him as the table started to smoke beneath his hands.
"Warren, calm down ok?" Destiny told, her voice shaking a little, she remembered what happened the last time someone tried to insult his father.
"Now get up and leave" Warren growled, ignoring Destiny. They got up quickly and walked as fast as they could out of the cafeteria. Warren took a deep breath in and sat back down.
"You ok Warren?"Destiny said gently grabbing his hand. He just nodded, he didn't look up and continued to play with his lunch. They sat in silence the rest of lunch.
Destiny walked into the classroom where her attention was immediately directed to the back of the class where most of the students had gathered. She walked towards them and heard over the 'Fight! Fight! Fight!' coming from the other students, Warren and Greg Farman arguing.
"I bet he was a drunk, and he bashed your mum huh? Did 'things' to you too!" Greg shouted.
"I am warning you right now Farman, if you don't shut the hell up right now I will make you regret it!" Warren said he had a terrifying look on his face.
"He's pathetic just like you! He's just a stupid piece of useless crap!" Greg laughed.
"That's it!" Warren told him and he created a ball of fire in his hand. The ground around him began to smoke and the ground all around the school burst into flame. Destiny ran forward and froze his hand before anyone saw the flames, the rest of the fire went out as well.
"Warren, that's enough" she whispered "Come on let's go outside ok?" Warren nodded and followed her. Destiny kept hold of his hand to make sure he wouldn't his mind and turn back.
They walked out the door of the school and went behind the garden, Warren sat down and stared at the dirt. Destiny sat next to him and watched him waiting for him to say something. Tears started to roll down him face, Destiny wiped them away with his thumb then moved forward and hugged him, they sat together for almost half an hour and neither of them said a word, neither of them had to. Warren and Destiny understood each other and Warren found comfort from just knowing Destiny was there for him, she felt the same.
They had been best of friends since they had met years earlier and from that moment they had been absolutely inseparable.
That had been three years ago and Warren still felt the same comfort from Destiny right now. Destiny looked over her shoulder and saw Lash and Speed whispering in the corner. She hated them already and got the feeling that they would piss Warren off again. The fact of the matter was that Destiny hoped they would, she would love to see them pay after hurting Warren. She had a feeling that they would.
