The Island.

This is gonna be a good 1! I'm posting the first three chapters, but you'll wait for the others!

Chapter 1

Hi I'm Emma Allen, age 13. I have dusty brown hair, deep blue eyes behind black glasses and tan skin. I'm neglected by my parents.

I can communicate with people's minds.

It was Wednesday at school and I was sitting next to my friend Jesse Reese. He looks like me with no glasses.

"Miss Allen!" My teacher's shriek broke me from my thoughts. "What in the world are you doing?" She said mundanely.

Stupid child! She hissed. None of these brats pay me any attention! I've wasted my life for them! Ungrateful bastards!

"Just listening to your totally captivating lecture." I batted my long, dark eyelashes. She shot me a look then turned to her lecture. After 10 minutes it was the end of the day.

"Let's go." We live in the same neighborhood. What was she thinking, Emma? He prodded. I rolled my eyes.

Not telling. Last time I told you what I heard a girl dropped out of school because you told everyone she was pregnant! Jesse gave me his puppy face and I giggled.

She called us brats and bastards. It was funny. I giggled. He smirked as we walked in his house. We dropped our backpacks at the front door and ran to the kitchen to get a snack.

We stopped and gasped. His mother, his father and his baby sister June were tied up and gagged on the floor. Sadness pained Jesse's expression. They started muffled chatter.

"What the hell are they saying?" Jesse shouted at me. I focused on Mr. and Mrs. Reese's thoughts. I showed them to Jesse as soon as I heard them.

Get out! Bad things! They'll be back soon! Went to find you! Wearing blue! Blue, blue, blue! Leave! Get out of here! They're here! We gasped and turned around slowly.

Then it all went black…
