Luca and Bridgette Part 1
9:10am
It was Saturday and Luca slept in late because of yesterday's little fiasco at school where he got into trouble with the principal again for pulling the fire alarm at school to get out of his Calculus test, "Uhhh…my head." Completely groggy he looks around for his glasses since he can't see a thing without them. As he finally finds them he puts them on and everything becomes clearer. He slowly gets out of bed and stretches his arms out since they were pretty stiff from the workout he got at karate after school yesterday. After his shower he puts on his black jeans with a hole torn in the left knee. Still shirtless he walks over to his dresser and grabs his necklace with a silver cross on it and puts it on as he looks at himself in the mirror he turns around and looks at the scar on his right shoulder and sighs at the painful memories of the past that haunt him everyday. He grabs his torn black t-shirt with his trademark smileys on them and puts it on and goes to grab his spiked bracelet and gloves that he wears. He heads done stairs to see his mother smiling at him and says, "Good Morning son." Luca smiles at his mother as he fixes his glasses and grabs an apple from the fruit basket for breakfast says, "Morning Mom. I'm heading off to the beach to meet Bridgette later." As he heads for the door he hears his mother say, "Take care and don't forget about the solar eclipse that's happening today." Luca coming to the realization of that says, "Thanks for reminding me Mom see ya later." As he walks outside he flips his apple around in the air for a bit before taking a big bite into it. After he finishes his apple he holds the core of the apple that remains and looks at it for a bit before his hand suddenly ignites on fire and he incinerates the apple core tossing whatever remaining ashes were left of it into the wind and continued walking to the beach to meet Bridgette. As he walks he stares up into the sky still thinking about what he did to the apple and says, "It's been nearly a week since I discovered this thing and it still scares the living hell out of me." Meanwhile Bridgette is standing around a metal fence dragging her hand on it just a few centimeters away from actually touching it and as she does lightning jolts around from her hand to the metal pieces of the fence as she takes her hand away she just stares at it completely afraid at what has become of her. Luca sees Bridgette in front of her staring at her hand wondering what's going on he yells, "Hey Bridgette!!!" No response so when he gets right up to her he taps her on the shoulder and says, "Bridgette? You feeling okay?" Bridgette snapping out of her little trance looks at Luca surprised and says, "Oh hey Luca didn't see you there." Luca gasped sarcastically and said, "Didn't see me! Something must be wrong with you. Do you have a fever?" as he says this he tries to put his hand on her forehead and she just slaps it away over the joke and says, "Haha! Very funny. So what do you want to do today?" Luca laughs and rests his arms on the metal fence and says, "Well Board Warriors 4 is out in theatres and I know you've been looking forward to that." Bridgette smiles, "Totally I want to see what happens next since the third movie was left in a cliffhanger ending." Luca rolls his eyes at Bridgette's excitement, "But…I was thinking let's go see that tomorrow since that solar eclipse is happening tonight and its like a once in a lifetime experience." Bridgette looks at him and says, "When is the solar eclipse happening?" Luca pulls out his cell phone to see what time it is, "Let's see it 9:30 at the moment and the eclipse happens at 4:30. So we got quite a bit of time actually. Want to surf for an hour or two and than I guess we could head to the movies to catch Board Warriors 4." Bridgette distraught at the thought of surfing says, "Umm I'm actually not in the mood to surf today." Luca really surprised says, "Not in the mood? But you love surfing. Are you sure you're feeling okay?" Bridgette giving out a fake smile says, "I'm fine Luca I just feel like doing something that isn't surfing that's all." Luca with a little concern in his voice says, "Alright. How about we just walk and talk our way to the theatre." Bridgette smiles, "Sounds good."
Courtney Part 1
10:30AM
Courtney was with her friend Tom at some cliffs that Courtney had climbed all the way to the top while her friend Tom was done below with his video camera and cell phone recording Courtney and he says, "Wow. This is insane the cliff must be at least 10 no 15 feet high." Seeing that Courtney has reached the top he dials her cellphone number which she answers and says to her, "Are you sure you want to do this? I mean this is insane Courtney its just pure insanity." Courtney looking down at Tom while listening to him on the top of the cliff says with an angry tone in her voice "Just shut up and record this alright?" Tom completely freaked out says, "Courtney I'm just concerned alright I mean for love of God your jumping off this friggin cliff to prove what?" Courtney walking away from the edge says, "To see what will happen alright?" Tom still recording says, "This is messed Courtney you could die for the love of…OH SHIT!!!" he says as he sees Courtney run to the edge of the cliff and jumps off screaming in terror as she falls. When Courtney hits the ground Tom runs up to her still recording everything while repeating the words, "Please don't be dead…Please don't be dead…Please don't be dead." As he comes into contact he sees Courtney slowly getting up looking at her left leg which has been dislocated while she notices that her body is covered in scars from the fall and also that a piece of bedrock has embedded itself into her chest. After she relocates her leg into place she gets up pulling the shard of bedrock out her chest and says, "This is Courtney and that was attempt number 10." As Courtney says this the wounds all over her body and the hole in her chest start to heal rapidly to the point where it looks like nothing has happened to her.
Heather
11AM
Heather was home alone in the kitchen doing her English homework while waiting for her parents and her little brother to arrive home. As she continued to write her essay she was all of a sudden thirsty a drink. So she got up and headed for the fridge to grab a glass of Pepsi. As she opened the fridge she couldn't find the Pepsi anywhere which was weird for her because she remembered her mother putting a brand new bottle worth of it in the fridge this morning since her brother finished the rest yesterday. As she turned around she screamed in terror to find the Pepsi bottle floating right in front of her. The bottle started to fall as soon as she screamed as she saw it falling she tried to grab but was too slow. She holds her hand out to it and the bottle stops in mid-air, "What?" she says completely confused. She raises her hand up and the bottle slowly follows her hands movements, "Am I doing this?" she starts to concentrate her mind on the bottle and manages to make it slowly float on its own into her hand. She stares at the bottle for a few minutes wondering what just happened. She says, "Was that…telekinesis that I just used now?" She tries using it again by staring at the cupboard door and tries to open it using only her mind. It took a little effort using her mind alone but somehow it worked. She starts smiling at how interesting this could be and pulls a glass out of the cupboard with a hand motion. She lets go of the Pepsi bottle and takes the cap off using her newfound powers and slowly walks over to sink with everything that's floating following her she gets everything over the sink and slowly tries to pour the drink into the glass using her powers alone. After she finishes pouring her drink she puts the glass down with her hand while the Pepsi bottle still floats behind her. She grabs the Pepsi bottle with her hands since using her new powers so much with her mind alone is really strenuous on her. She grabs her drink and heads back to the table to continue writing her essay as she does Heather motions one hand upwards and all her pens and white out start floating all around her as she writes.
Duncan
12PM
Duncan was at home cooking his lunch while his parents were out on a call catching some guy who was robbing a bank while his brothers were training at the station. As Duncan finishes cooking himself a piece of chicken and fixing up his salad he grabs the piece of chicken and sticks it in a bun with mayo on it for a chicken sandwich and grabs his salad and heads to the table as he sits at the table he says to himself, "I'm heading to the roof to eat." Duncan grabs his food and heads out to the backyard of his house. As he kicks one of his bikes away he looks around to see if anyone is around or watching him and his feet start floating off the ground and he slowly flies onto the roof of his house and just stares at the scenery as he eats his food. After he finishes his food he jumps off and slowly floats back down to the ground walking back inside the house to clean the dishes. As he finishes he decides to head out and leaves a note for his parents that says, "Gone to watch the solar eclipse see you in a couple of hours…Duncan." Duncan heads out the front door and locks it as he leaves and looks around one more time to make sure no one sees him and takes off into the sky. As he flies through the air he looks down at the beauty of the city below him and says to himself, "It's been almost a month since I had these powers and yet I'm still so confused as to what I can do with them. I mean being able to fly is great and all I've never felt more free and alive in all my life…but…what does it all mean? Also will Courtney still be able to accept me for what I've become." He slowly starts descending into the hills of a cliff to go watch the eclipse in peace and quiet. As he lands he falls to the ground and just stares at the sky until the eclipse occurs.
Kendra
1:30PM
Kendra was at the park watching everyone play on the swings and the teeter-totters while she just sat in the tree alone watching everyone frolic around. As she watches her imaginary friend Marilyn appears beside her standing on another tree branch, "Having fun?" Marilyn asks with a smile on his face. Kendra's stone grey eye look at her imaginary friend and says, "Not really…but I'm glad you showed up its always nice to have someone to talk too." Marilyn smiles and jumps off the tree while Kendra quickly follows and jumps down also. As they walk a man sees Marilyn and says, "Hey put a shirt on!!!" Marilyn just nods his head and says to Kendra, "I keep forgetting that they can see me because of your power." Kendra smiles as she wraps her hands around Marilyn's arms and says, "Forget about them. I'm just glad I have you Marilyn." As Marilyn and Kendra leave the park they slowly walk down the streets and Marilyn says, "You do know that I can't be around with you forever right Kendra? One day you're unfortunately going to have to let go of me." Kendra starts pouting and says, "I hope that day never comes." As she lets go of Marilyn's arm she runs in front and says, "Your real because of my power over illusions and people can see and talk to you and you know it." Suddenly Kendra's eyes start glowing blood red and everything around her starts warping around her as the neighborhood goes from the image of peaceful and pleasant to her own twisted look of dark and chaotic. Marilyn walks and says, "Don't do this again stop it Kendra." Kendra's eyes return to normal and everything around her goes back to normal and Marilyn looks at her and says, "I have to go for now Kendra but I'll talk to you when we get home okay?" He kisses her on the forehead and slowly disappears. Kendra just stands around for a bit and starts walking home.
Gwen
2:30PM
Gwen was in the basement of her house on the computer talking to a few of her friends when her Mom comes downstairs looking concerned and says, "Gwen are you feeling okay?" Gwen confused looks at her mom and says, "Yeah mom why?" She notices that her mom was holding her sketchbook and says, "Well its just that I looked through your sketchbook and found some really graphics images that you drew and I was a little concerned. Gwen confused grabs her sketchbook and sees a drawing that she doesn't remember drawing at all. She looks at her mom and says, "Can I be alone for a bit please." Gwen's mother just nods her head and leaves while Gwen just signs off MSN to start looking through her sketch book at all these pictures she doesn't remember drawing. Some were vague looking while others were really graphic looking this includes some like…
-Lindsay holding her a ripped off locker door
-Heather writing a paper with various things floating around her
-Duncan looking like he's gliding in the sky.
-A comic panel showing two distinctively different hands one that is holding an apple core that's on fire and one with another hand above a metal fence with jolts of electricity coming out of the hand
-Ten different scenarios of Courtney being subjected to death including one that looks like her being hit head-on by an eighteen wheeler truck
-And one of Kendra just standing around while it shows two different backgrounds behind her with middle of the image looking like the backgrounds are merging.
"What the heck is all this?" As she turns the page to a blank one everything around her suddenly goes all black.
Courtney Part 2
3:30pm
Tom and Courtney are walking done railroad tracks while Tom is watching all the footage he recorded of Courtney trying to kill herself, "This is so cool Courtney your like indestructible against virtually anything it's incredible." Courtney completely angry at him looks at him and says, "Incredible!? How is this incredible Tom!? I've been hit by an eighteen wheeler head-on and don't have a single shattered bone, I've been impaled with a knife in my hand yet there is not mark on it, I've had my leg burned to a crisp and yet I don't have a single case of third-degree burn on me, and I've jumped off a 15 foot cliff and yet I'm still alive when I should be technically dead with every bone sticking out of my body!!!" Tom listening and notices that her shirt is red says, "And what would that be?" As Courtney lifts up her shirt she notices that a piece of her ribcage is sticking out of her body and sighs at the sight. She takes her finger and pushes the bone back into place so the wound can heal. Tom makes a grossed out face and says, "I don't see what the problem is your unique and shouldn't be afraid to accept this 'gift' you've been given." Courtney rolls her eyes in disgust, "Unique? More like freak of nature." Tom sighs at her, "What do you plan on telling Duncan?" Courtney looking at her blood stained hand says, "I honestly don't even want to think about that for now I'm afraid he'll reject me for what I've turned into." Tom puts his camera away and flicks her in the forehead and says, "You idiot if he really likes you know he'll accept you no matter what you become." Courtney still not believing it says, "Thanks for trying Tom but still I don't believe it." Tom just shakes his head in disappointment over her stubbornness and says, "Well let's at least get ready to watch the Solar Eclipse it's supposed to be really awesome." Courtney stares at the ground depressed says in a whisper, "Fine."
Luca and Bridgette Part 2
3:45PM
Luca and Bridgette leave the movie theatre and start walking back to Bridgette's place to go watch the Solar Eclipse together. As they walk Bridgette says, "That was such a great movie I mean the plot and the action within the movie were perfect!!" Luca fixing his glasses smiles, "Seriously plus they left it open for one more sequel I can't wait to see it." As Luca and Bridgette arrive to her house they have twenty minutes to spare before the solar eclipse starts. They climb out the window onto the roof of Bridgette house and lie down on the roof and stare at the sky for a bit. Bridgette looks at Luca and says, "Hey Luca." Luca letting out a quiet hmm as he stares at the sky turns his head to Bridgette and says, "Yeah? What is it?" Bridgette turning her head back to the sky says, "Do you ever feel like something inside of you is changing but you don't know how you should deal with it? Luca looks at her concerned and says, "So you want to know how to deal with change basically right?" Bridgette just nods her head in agreement. Luca looks up to the sky and says, "Change can be a difficult thing to deal depending on what the case is. It can be something as simple as a change of style like what you wear for instance to something really hard like the loss of a family member for example. I've gone through a lot of change not in just appearance but also personality and view of the world because of the harsh past I've had that bugs me even to this very day." Bridgette looking at him concerned says, "And to this very day since we became friends you still haven't told me what that past of yours is." Luca gives a weak smile and says, "I've said it once and I'll say it to you again Bridgette I'm just not ready to tell anyone else about it yet. The only other person that knows about it is Duncan and his family just because I've been friends with him since Pre-K that's all. I promise one day when I feel ready Bridgette I'll tell you everything." Bridgette smiles, "Thanks Luca that means a lot. Also thank you for trying to help me understand what I'm going through a little better." Luca smiles, "Its no problem. Look! It's starting!"
The Eclipse
4:30PM
As the eclipse starts Bridgette and Luca stare into the sky as the sun is slowly starts to turn black as the moon slowly covers the sun. Gwen having just woken up looks at her sketchbook to find two new drawings one of a Solar Eclipse and another that horrifies her. Courtney and Tom continue walking done the railroad and Courtney stops and looks into the sky to see the beauty of Eclipse happening. Heather having finished her essay puts all her utensils that she had floating around her back on the table and looks out the window to see the eclipse starting. Kendra outside walking alone looks up to the sky and notices the solar eclipse occurring. Duncan who is still on top of the cliff sees the solar eclipse is almost over and just smiles at how beautiful it is. Meanwhile the seven other teenagers also see the solar eclipse and watch it until it's over. As the eclipse ends each teenager heads there separate ways back home and wait for the new day to begin…a day that will change the very course of history itself.
