Chapter 1

Robin Moby removed her glasses and rubbed her temples. Her best friend Jacob was giving her a ride home in his new car but she wasn't able to be excited because strange things were happening to her. She was frying computers and making lights flicker whenever she went near an electronic device. It wasn't only scary, it was downright creepy!

"Robin?" Jacob asked in a soft tone as he took a brief look at her.

She looked up at him, "What is it?"

"I was about to ask you the same thing." He said in a concerned tone of voice.

She assured him noting was wrong. He pulled up to her house and she hopped out. If there was one thing she wanted to do, it was to take a long relaxing bath so she could clear her head.

She stepped into the tub of warm water and eased herself in slowly. She allowed the warm water to remove all her stress and help her to relax but when she heard her mother calling her she became extremely agitated. She shut her eyes and sunk down in the water so that it could block up her ears. She would much rather having swimmer's ear than being disturbed at that particular moment. Her mother knocked on her bathroom door and when she heard no reply she left and went downstairs.

Robin sighed and sat up in the bathtub when she heard her phone ring. She picked it up and answered wearily.

"What are you doing in there? Your brother wants to pee." Her Mother's voice came through clearly.

"I'm trying to relax. Can't he go pee outside? He is a guy."

Robin exited the bathroom moments later then went into her room to spend hours on her computer. She wondered if that cute guy she met a few weeks ago would be online…As soon as she sat in front of her desktop and pushed the power button she heard a frying noise then sparks started coming from the CPU and then, in turn, it came from each of the devices she had on the computer she moved away from her computer and screamed. Her mother and brother rushed into the room and stared at her still sparking computer.

"Ooooh…"her brother said in his annoying way, "What'd you do to it Robin?"

"Nothing!" Robin exclaimed as her cheeks turned a dark shade of red against her dark skin.

"Robin…"her mother began.

"I didn't do anything to it Mom!" she screamed and the sparks became bigger and louder until the computer eventually started smoking.

Robin's mother and brother stared incredulously at her then at the computer. She looked at them and sighed.

In only a few moments the family doctor who just happened to live across the street was giving her a check-up. After removing the stethoscope from her ears and throwing it over her shoulders she concluded that Robin was absolutely fine.

"I'm not." Robin whispered to herself as the doctor left.

"How about you call your father and ask him to get you that new computer you've been wanting?" Her mother asked handing her the cordless phone.

Robin smiled in a small way and took the outstretched phone which immediately fried to a crisp in her palm.

"What's wrong with me?" she asked in a panicked way as her mother just looked at her helplessly.
