I'm back, with hopefully a much better story! Oh, and she has a last name now. It's a play on words, kinda like Royal Pain and Warren Peace. You'll get it when you see it.. I hope o.o()

….:6 Years Ago:…

"Mom, MUST we move?" Crystal asked her mother as they loaded their things into the moving van. "Is this all ABOSLUTELY necessary?"

"Yes, hun, you know it is," responded her mom. "And you know exactly why."

Crystal Caverns knew her mom was right. She knew EXACTLY why they were moving away.

Her dad was a super villain, and as a super villain he truly took mercy on no one. He'd always had a kind of bad temper, and lately he'd been abusive towards Crystal's pregnant mother, and verbally abusive to Crystal. So her mom is divorcing him and they're moving away… very far away.

Her mother came over and hugged her. "It's going to be hard without your father. But we'll get through, I promise."

I hope so, Crystal thought. I really do.

….:Present Day:…

"You're going to be late for the bus Crystal, I suggest you hurry!" Crystal's mom shouted up the staircase.

"I'm almost done, mom!" she shouted back.

Crystal was now 15 years old. Her mother had been able to find new work; the same as her old field, nursing, around their new area; which was good, considering there were two kids with only one parent. Yes, I said two; 6 years ago her mom was pregnant, so now she has a 6 year old brother named Terrance.

Not wanting to be late and miss the bus for her first day at Sky High, she began brushing her long, light brown hair while putting on mascara. Dangerous, yes, but she was in a hurry.

She ran into her room and grabbed her backpack, then ran down the steps and jumped the last 3. "Bye mom!"

"Bye sweetie. Have a fun time!"

"I'm sure I will," she said sarcastically as she opened the door. Crystal had never been one to like school. What kid does?

Now, there's something very unique about Crystal, and something hidden deep inside her. Remember her father, the super villain? Well, he was psychic, so, all in all, he could talk to people with his mind, make things move with his mind, and sometimes had visions. Well, Crystal, unsuspectingly, had inherited those powers from her father. But, the bad thing was… she didn't even know she was supposed to get powers. It's not like Will's situation where he's waiting for his, she doesn't even KNOW. So, naturally, she doesn't know that Sky High is a super hero high school.

And her mother, who hadn't had any powers, was certain that Crystal wasn't going to get any powers. Just like her brother; he was powerless. And, just like Crystal, her mother thought Sky High was a regular high school.

She walked to the bus stop (which, thankfully, wasn't too far) and saw Will and Layla standing there already.

"Hey Will, hey Layla," she greeted as she approached them, turning her headphones down so she could hear them well.

"Hey!" Will greeted.

"Hey Crystal," Layla returned. "I can't wait to start school; this year should be so much fun!"

"I don't see how you figure that, I'm sure it's gonna be like every other boring year of school!" Crystal joked.

"Come on, how can a super hero school be boring?" Layla exclaimed.

"Super hero?" Crystal questioned. "Layla… what kind of plants have you been growing? I hope not marijuana?"

Will and Layla burst out laughing. "No, silly! Sky High! The super hero school! You know, we all have powers and.."

"POWERS! What!" Crystal was so confused. "Did I miss something?"

Layla and Will looked at each other with a I don't think she's joking look.

"Crystal… you have powers don't you?" Will asked slowly.

"You guys.. I hope you're joking… you've got to be! There's no such thing as a super hero school!"

"No, we're not!" Will defended. "Would Layla and I keep up a joke this long?"

"No, you'd probably have started laughing a few minutes ago!"

"Exactly!"

Crystal was silent. She was about to go to a Super Hero High School, but she had no powers.

Wait a minute..

"Now that I think about it," she muttered slowly, "I have had some strange things happen to me…"

"Like what?" Layla questioned.

"Sometimes when I walk past thing they'll move.. or if my mind is just wondering things will start moving.. um… is that a power or a coincidence?"

"Wasn't your dad a psychic?"

"Yes, I believe so."

"Then you probably inherited his psychic powers," Layla told her.

Will held out his hand. "Can I get a free palm read then since you're my friend?" he joked.

"Suuuuuuuure," Crystal said sarcastically. She grabbed his hand and looked at it closely. "I see….." she spit in his hand. "….a large gob of spit in your palm."

"DUDE!" Will yelled and frantically tried to wipe off the spit. "THAT'S JUST NOT RIGHT!"

Layla and Crystal were laughing hysterically over that.

"But.. anyway.." Layla said, trying to stop laughing, "What you need to do is learn how to use them. You won't do too well at Sky High if you have powers but don't know how to make them come."

"Yeah… that would be a teeny downfall for me."

"If I'm correct," Layla pondered as Will ran around behind them, all but forgotten, still trying to cleanse his hand, "psychic is all about the mind, right? So, I would suggest trying to tap into your mind and use your mind to make something move." She looked around, making sure there were no people, and set her book bag down. "Here, try to move this. No one's around."

"Umm…. Are you sure about this?"

"Not entirely, but it's a lead. Just try it."

"OK…" she concentrated on the book bag for a minute. She stared at it, trying to look past what was on the outside, trying to pry her mind into the depths of it and bend it to her command. (Sounds kinda weird when you think about it being a book bag..)

A couple minutes later, nothing had happened and Crystal had a headache. Suddenly she felt like her head exploded and fell to her knees, clutching her head. "OW!"

"Ah! Crystal! What happened! Are you okay!' Layla was have a spaz attack.

"I'm fine Layla... just concentrated too hard and my head hurts. That's all!"

"Well.. okay. But what are we going to do about your powers?" Layla's eyes went wide and she gasped. "YOU DON'T THINK THEY'D KICK YOU OUT OF THE SCHOOL!"

"LAYLA CALM DOWN!"

"BOTH OF YOU LOWER YOUR VOICES!" Will yelled, hands over his ears. "They can't kick you out of that school for not having powers... I hope."

"Once they find out whose daughter I am they'll probably kick me out, powers or not," Crystal muttered darkly.

"Hey, don't worry about it!" Layla said, resuming her cheerful demeanor. "Here comes the bus!"

Please be wrong, please be wrong... she's right, Crystal thought unhappily. This is going to be the toughest first day of school in my life.

A/N: I hope you like the new and revised version! I like it a lot better. I would like to thank TheAlmightyMasterT-Chan, because they gave me the suggestion to start over and really helped me out to improve it. Thanks again! Stay tuned for Chapter 2!
