Chapter One: Forbidden Abilities and an Accident

"Okay, now remember. It's Tai's house, so if he says we are not allowed to jump on the beds or go digging through the refrigerator, we are going to listen to him, right?" Matt walked up the drive-way with his little brother, T.K. When T.K. didn't speak, Matt stopped and looked down at him. "Right?" he repeated.

T.K looked up at his brother. Matt was only three years older than him but unfortunately, T.K was born very small, so now, at the age of six, he looked about four. "Oh Kay." He said reluctantly. "But Kari says it's okay. And it's her house, too."

"Yeah, but their mom doesn't like it." Matt said. He continued walking and eventually they got to the door. Matt reached up and knocked.

A few minutes later the door opened and a medium height woman with dark brown hair answered to door. "Well, hello boys. I take it you're here to play with Tai and Kari?" she opened the door wider, allowing them to come in. "Tai!" she called. "Matt and T.K are here." She turned to T.K. "Kari's in her room, if you want to go ahead."

"Okay." Said T.K. cheerfully, and headed down the hall to Kari's room. At that moment, Tai walked out of his room and into the living room.

"Hey Matt, what's up?" he said. He looked at his mother. "Mom, your boss just called. He said you need to go in as soon as you get his message. He needs help and you are the only one he knows that will come in if he calls or something like that, I don't know. I wasn't paying much attention, 'cause he was being a jerk again."

"Oh, again?" said his mother, putting her hands on her hips. "This is the third time this week." Although Tai wasn't sure if she meant the rude part or being called in, since both have happened quite often. She sighed. "Oh, well. I suppose it can't be helped. And we need the money. Okay, well then, Tai, I'm going to need you to look after your sister."

"Yeah, yeah I know the drill. Keep an eye on her, don't let her out of my sight, and if I do, I'll be in serious trouble." said Tai in that tone that says, 'We've been through this before.'

"I mean it, Tai. Keep an eye on her." she said. "I know it's difficult. She's so wild and energetic that it's hard to keep track of her. The other day I found her in that pagoda tree in the neighbor's front yard. The pagoda tree. Do you know how huge that thing is? How in the world she got up there is beyond me."

"Well," started Matt. "Maybe she used her- Ouch!"

"Used her what?" asked the mother.

"Used her tree climbing skills." Tai said quickly. "You know, for when she becomes a teenager and starts sneaking out at night to go clubbing or something."

"Oh Tai, don't say that." said his mother, a worried expression on her face. "The last thing we need is for her to go sneaking out for a party or a boy."

"I prefer sneaking for a party rather than a boy." Tai said, spitting out the last word with dislike.

"Those days will be interesting, I can tell." She said with a thoughtful smile. Then she went into her room and came back with her purse and her keys. "Okay, well I'm all set. When your father gets home, let him know where I went and that I will call when I find out what time I'm getting off."

Tai nodded. "Alright, have fun."

After she left, Matt turned and glared at Tai. "What was that about?" he asked, rubbing his ribs where Tai had elbowed him.

Tai walked into the kitchen and Matt followed, not wanting him to get away without an explanation. "We're not supposed to talk about it." said Tai finally. He grabbed two sodas from the fridge and handed one to Matt. "Her powers, I mean."

Matt looked confused. "Why not?"

Tai shrugged. "My mom doesn't like it. Kari isn't allowed to use any of her abilities. We're forbidden from even mentioning them. I think my mom is in denial. When we first found out about them, it was kind of weird and cool, you know? But then my mom started to get mad when random things happened. She started blaming Kari for every bad or weird thing that happened even when Kari wasn't even in the house. She got in trouble a lot. And then one day my mom called us all into the living room and told Kari she was not allowed to use her powers any more, and that no one was allowed to mention them. I could tell Kari was hurt, even though she didn't say anything. Dad tried talking to mom but she wouldn't listen. She had already made up her mind. So Kari stopped using them."

Matt was silent after Tai had stopped speaking. His mom had never said anything like that to T.K. In fact, she often asked him to show her something when she was stressed or upset to make her feel better. He could only imagine what Kari must be going through. "So she's not allowed to do any at all?" he asked.

Tai shook his head. "She's not supposed to but she does when me or Dad are here. Dad doesn't care. He's proud of having a 'special' child. I am too. It feels nice to be able to say that the girl that pulls things off the shelves without touching them is my sister." He paused for a moment. Then he said quietly, "but it's hurting her."

Matt looked up at him. "What do you mean?"

Tai leaned against the counter opposite the fridge. "I mean her not being able to use her powers. She keeps them bunched up inside her so much that sometimes they slip out. As soon as something weird starts to happen, she gets up and runs out of the room. She can't control them, and mom isn't helping by making her keep them in. I see her powers getting stronger every day. It's getting harder for her to hold onto them. And she's getting new ones. Things that have never happened before are starting to show and it's scaring her. She's told me a few times that it feels like mom doesn't like her anymore. What do I say to that? How do I tell her it's okay when my mom doesn't even allow her to be herself? Honestly I think my mom is afraid of Kari. Or at least, afraid of Kari's powers." Tai shook his head. "And now she's getting sick."

Matt looked at him, confusion and concern on his face. "Sick how?"

"She's not eating because she spends so much of her time trying to keep her powers from coming out. She hardly comes out of her room 'cause she's afraid mom will notice when one of her powers slips out, she doesn't speak as much because sometimes any random word will make something happen, and when she does speak, it sounds like she's half asleep. Her voice sounds weak from her not using it. She's even starting to go back to the whistle thing. You remember how that was, right?" Tai asked.

Matt nodded. He remembered; back when they were younger, Kari would always wear a whistle around her neck that she constantly used when she wanted to get someone's attention. She never went anywhere without it and it took forever before she finally started using her voice. Is surprised them all when she suddenly spoke, they had almost forgotten what her voice sounded like. They never knew what made her start speaking or even what made her stop in the first place, she never told anyone; though Matt had a feeling she might have told T.K. and that T.K. might have had something to do with her speaking again.

"I don't know what to do." Tai said, snapping Matt out of his thoughts. Tai walked out of the kitchen and into the living room, Matt following. They sat on the couch and Tai grabbed the remote but didn't turn on the T.V. He stared at the ground for a few minutes before speaking again. "I want to help her but I don't even have any powers of my own so what can I do? I can't even imagine what she's feeling right now. And you know what's weirder?" he looked at Matt, his eyes wide and full of wonder. "There have been a few times that I've woken up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and I can hear her crying. And at the same time, it's always raining. Every single time that I've heard her crying, it's always raining. Sometimes I would go in her room to comfort her and by the time she stops, it's already stopped raining. It would be totally awesome if it rained because she was crying, you know what I mean? Although, I would still rather not have her cry at all, you know? I mean, she is my sister and my mom's daughter. I don't know why my mom can't see that. No matter what, she's still her daughter."

Matt couldn't think of anything to say to that except, "Just give her some time. Maybe she just needs time. Also, I think you should have Kari use her powers as much as possible when your mom isn't around. I've noticed that T.K is starting to get the hang of some of the things he can do. Not a lot, but like the whole bit with moving things with his mind. Things have stopped breaking so much now. Instead they just fall off of the shelves a few times before he's actually able to pick them up and hold them in place. He hasn't started moving them yet, though. Just picking them up. But my mom tells him to keep practicing on one thing first and then eventually move on to the next step. You should try doing that with Kari and maybe get your dad to help." As an afterthought, Matt said, "Maybe I can ask my mom if we could invite you guys to our house and mom can help too."

Tai thought for a moment, then nodded. "Yeah, that might actually work. Mom doesn't yet know that T.K has powers too. He doesn't use them in the house."

"He doesn't?" Matt asked. He's never noticed T.K not using his powers when they come over but after thinking about it, he realized Tai was right. Not once has he seen T.K use anything. "So, he knows he's not supposed to use them here?"

"Yep." said Tai. "Kari said she told him not to because our mom doesn't like it and she might not allow T.K to come back if he does. So he doesn't."

"Oh. Well, that's good, I guess." said Matt. "At least he knows what not to do. Now he just needs to work on staying out of your fridge."

Tai laughed, then turned on the T.V. "Yeah, well my mom is starting to give in a little to that since Dad was found digging in the fridge late last night. Then she found out that he's been doing it every night, so now she doesn't care too much. Just as long as there is still food in there when she goes to get breakfast."

It was Matt's turn to laugh as Tai turned the channel to a random cartoon and they both began to relax.

Meanwhile, in Kari's room….

A green ring the size of a small boulder glowed on the wall opposite the bed, adjacent to the window. T.K and Kari looked at the ring curiously, then turned and looked at each other. "What did you do?" T.K. asked.

Kari shrugged. "I don't know. This never happened before. Every time I made the circle, it never came off my finger." She looked back at her wall.

Several minutes earlier….

"Tai, Matt and T.K are here." Kari looked in the direction her mother's voice came from and listened. "Kari's in her room, if you want to go ahead." she heard her mother say. A few seconds later T.K walked in.

"Hi, Kari." he said happily. "How come you're sitting on the floor?" He shut the door, walked over and took a seat next to her.

Kari put her finger to her lips. "Shh." She whispered. "I'm trying to use my powers right now. If mom finds out, I'll be in really big trouble. Look." She showed him her index finger and concentrated on the tip. T.K looked at it, first confused, then with interest as it started to glow a dull yellow. Then she started moving her finger in the air and T.K noticed she was writing his name.

"Cool!" He exclaimed.

"Shh." Kari whispered. Her finger stopped glowing as she and T.K listened for any sounds of her mother coming.

"-let him know where I went and that I'll call when I'm getting off." she heard her mom say. Then the front door closed. They looked out the window as her mom got into the car and drove away.

Kari and T.K let out the breath they had been holding. "That was close." she said, then turned back to her finger, making it glow again. As she continued to draw shapes in the air, the glow turned from the pale yellow to a light green. Kari watched the color change in fascination. She started moving her finger in a small circle, widening it each time until it was as big as an over inflated balloon. Suddenly she felt a slight sting in her fingertip. "Ow!" she cried, jerking her finger back. Her finger stopped glowing but the green ring continued to float in mid-air.

"Are you okay?" T.K asked, alarmed when Kari yelled. Kari nodded, looking at her finger. Nothing seemed to be wrong with it so she and T.K turned back to the ring. It continued to grow, becoming as big as a small boulder before sticking itself on the wall in front of them. "Uh oh." T.K said.

End of flashback

"I really hope my mom doesn't see this. She's gonna be really mad." Kari said, still looking at the ring.

"Umm, well," said T.K. "maybe we can hide it. Can you put it back on your finger?"

"I don't know. I'll try." Kari reached out to touch the ring when all of a sudden it glowed a darker green and the center of the ring started to shimmer before vanishing completely. In its place was a picture of a forest. At least it looked like a forest, except the trees and plants didn't look like anything they have ever seen. Suddenly Kari felt her body being lifted off of the ground and before she knew it, she was falling into the forest.

"Kari!" T.K yelled. He grabbed the back of her shirt and instead of pulling her back, he ended up falling in with her.

T.K and Kari landed on what felt like grass. As they landed, they looked back where they came, only to see the remainder of the ring fading. "Uh oh." T.K repeated. He looked at Kari. "I think we're both gonna be in a lot of trouble when Matt and Tai find out."
