Austin and Gage sat across from me, eating their burgers. Emma sat beside me, drinking a tall glass of coke. I was sipping my Oreo shake, surveying my surroundings. Several men sat at a table eating their burgers and talking happily. Beside us a little boy complained to his mother as the boy's older brother groaned.
The door opened and a group of six walked in. One was a small angelic little girl with blond hair. A blond-haired boy stood behind her, talking with a taller boy. There was a girl with chocolate brown skin talking about fashion. Standing at the front of the group was a tall girl with long brown hair. She looked like their leader. Beside her was a tall, dark-haired boy. These were the people we were looking for.
I tapped Emma's thigh and she nodded. Under the table I lightly kicked Austin's foot. He tapped Gage's thigh and both nodded in reply. "Act natural." I whispered.
Emma casually brought up a conversation of a school that we never attended. We had grown up in a cruel orphanage. There we educated ourselves and escaped. Our memory was outstanding, unlike a normal human. We could memorize an entire page only after looking at it for a second.
Our memorization skills weren't the only thing out of the ordinary. We could all fly. We didn't have wings or anything-we just could. It was as simple as breathing and it came to us naturally. Self-defense was hard-wired into our brains and it came with inhuman strength.
We don't just fly though. Austin, Gage, Emma, and I all had something more. Austin and I can move things with our mind. What everyone knows as telekinesis. Gage and Emma could both turn invisible and duplicate themselves. They could make up to four copies of themselves.
The group of six sat on the other side of the fast-food place and ordered. A waitress brought two platters pulled with burgers and set them on the table. She winked at the tall boy with dark hair and raised her hand to her ear making a pretend cell phone and walked away.
I paid the bill and we patiently waited for the group to finish. They were known as the Flock. We figured we could join them for we had similar abilities. We also knew that they might be able to help us find out how we came to be.
The Flock quickly finished their burgers and stood up to leave. I motioned my group to stand up as well. When the Flock walled out the building we followed. They ran through an alley. They suspected us. Good thing we were fast.
We followed their heels and caught up to them. They spun around in the dark shadows into a fighting stance. We stopped ten feet in front of them. I stepped in front of my group and gave them the signal to stop behind me. "We don't want to fight." I stated.
