Clarity's POV

I Clarity Walker was about ready to have a mental breakdown. It had been exactly three months and two days since I had moved to Maxville and already I was hating it.

It was bad enough that we had moved during the hottest summer in Maxville history, and we hadn't even gotten an air conditioner installed until three weeks after we had moved in, but now I had to go to some school called Sky High. A school that would help me with my "special abilities" as my mom liked to put it.

To me it was like my parents thought I had no control over my powers.

Yeah sure I've had a "few" accidents trying to control them, but doesn't every freaky teenager with super powers. Plus it's not like anyone caught me doing anything.

So on my first day of school I had awoken to something dripping on my forehead, and already knew what it was.

"Do you get pleasure in tormenting me first thing in the morning?"I had asked my older brother Josh who's powers were the ability to control and form water. You could say that he was kinda the Aqua Man of our century, except the talking to fish part.

"As a matter of fact yes 'cuz I know it's the only time during the day were you can't get me back," he grinned.

"Can't you just leave me alone?" I pleaded.

"No."

"And why not?"

"'Cuz you have to get down to the bus stop in twenty minutes."

"What!?And you didn't get me up sooner because?" I yelled while throwing my blankets and my brother off my bed.

"Because you just look so darn cute when you're sleeping," he smirked.

Here's the thing about my brother, he is the smartest person I know, and he has already been accepted to every college I can think of. But for some really stupid reason he has decided that he was going to take a year off to find real meaning in his life.

What he really is doing though is hiding from it. I kinda think he's scared of leaving, because then he wouldn't have the support from home. You know mommy making you breakfast every morning and not having to pay bills etc.etc.

That's the difference between him and me. Once I'm out of high school I'm gone.

"Ugh, get out of my room." I told him

"That's the way you wanna thank me for getting you up." he feigned hurt

"Thank you, you a-hole, now out!"

And with that Josh left and I attempted to pick out a good outfit for school.

"Did you get your Clarity up?" Robert Walker asked his son who had just entered the kitchen.

"Yeah, and she's even bitchier than usual." Josh sighed.

"Joshua Walker you watch your tongue." Helen Walker scolded her son.

"Sorry but I only speak the truth," he replied with his hands raised in defeat.

"Well maybe she's just nervous I mean she does have to go to a new school, unlike some people." Robert said rolling his eyes and turning to Josh.

"Hey I will go to college, but until then I'm taking a break and I got a job at the Paper Lantern." he told his father.

"Isn't that, that little Chinese restaurant across the street from the supermarket?" Helen asked.

"Yep," he replied, "I figured that getting money and free food was a plus, the only problem is that I'll be the one cooking so technically I'm making my own food."

"So you rather work at a Chinese restaurant then go to college and become a lawyer?" Robert asked.

"Yep." he smiled well his mother and father just rolled their eyes


Clarity's POV

I was defiantly not the prettiest girl; I don't even consider myself good looking. I have blond hair with purple and blue tips that I had gotten when I was five or six. Along with a tattoo on my wrist of a sun and moon. (I think it represents the good and evils of my power.)

I'm average height and slim. I think one of my more unique qualities would have to be the fact that I had one blue and one green eye.

After I had picked out a descent outfit I did my makeup, and decided to leave my hair down. I looked at myself one last time in the mirror and headed down stairs.

When down there I couldn't help but grimace at what I saw my father and brother were eating. On their plates they eggs and four strips of bacon that my mother had made them. Don't get me wrong I love bacon and eggs just as much as the next person but the way my stomach was feeling today I just decided to avoid them.

So I just decided to eat an apple for breakfast instead of what everyone else was eating, but just as I got a shiny red apple out of the basket my mother the worry wart turned around from the stove.

"Good morning sweetie, how are you feeling this morning?" She asked eyeing the apple.

"Fine." I grumbled, while taking a bite out of it.

"Hey, is someone feeling sick, come here and let me feel your head." Josh joked sticking out his hand so he could feel my head, "You never turn down bacon."

"Wow make me sound like a pig why don't ya" I feigned hurt.

"Hey you said it not me" He grinned.

Smart-ass. I thought but still I grinned.

"Well I have to get ready for work." Josh said well getting up from the table and ruffling up my hair.

"I hate it when he does that." she grumbled.

"You should start heading down to the bus stop." My dad told me.

"Fine, I'll see you guys later."I said grabbing my backpack.

"Have a great first day hunnie and please don't get into any fights on your first day of school." My mom pleaded with me.

"Aww, and I was planning on making a day out of it." I joked and rolled my eyes while walking to the door.

"We love you." My mom said ignoring my comment.

"Yeah, you too." I said well walking out the door.

The instant I got outside though my phone started ringing.

"Hello" I answered.

Silence

"Hello" I repeated.

It was silent but I could hear faint breathing in the background.

"Is anyone there?"

Silence

Then the person on the other line hung up the phone.

That was odd. I thought to myself then shrugged, and headed for the bus stop.


No POV

Warren Peace had just had the worst summer of his life. It all started after he broke up with his girlfriend Annabel or also known as Ice Girl. They, or rather she had decided that it wasn't working out; because he couldn't see her in his future and didn't care about the relationship to fight for it, so she had thought that they should just call it quits, and he just agreed. It wasn't like they were gonna get married right? They were still in high school and all he saw in his future was just being able to make it through the week.

Work didn't help any either. There were always customers there that had always made him mad and he would always take his anger out on the trash cans with his power when no one was looking. Mrs. Wang said that if he burned her trash cans one more time it was coming out of his paycheck. The only good thing about work though that he was promoted from bus boy to waiter.

His friends were a different story they actually tried to help him and stayed out of his way when they knew that they couldn't cheer him up. It was still kinda weird calling them his friends. He had gone so long without any, and now in the course of a year he had five of them how weird was that.

So when he got to his bus stop he decided to take his usual seat underneath the big oak tree and wait for the bus come.

"Another year at Sky High." he sighed.

"Hey look at who we have here Lash it's our good friend Peace." The voice came from the villain k

"Oh great." Warren muttered, "I thought that they had locked you guys up."

"We got off on good behavior, and good thing to or we would've missed out on pranking all the freshies and hooking up with all the hot chicks especially that one." Lash whistled so only Warren and Speed could hear them.

When Warren looked up to see who they were looking at, his breathing came to a halt. The girl he was looking at looked about his age with long blond hair with blue and purple at the tips. Her outfit reminded him of what his friend Magenta wears. She was wearing a blue tank top, a black short skirt with a chain where the belt was suppose to be, she also had on black leather army boots on to match with the skirt.

She had decided to sit under the other oak tree; spacing herself away from anyone else, and taking out her iPod and starting listen to whatever it was she was listening to. She wasn't amazingly attractive but she for some reason fascinated Warren.

He had been staring at her for what seem like minutes before she got up to get on the bus.

"Looks like someone is interested in the new girl." Lash said well he and Speed walked towards the bus.

"This is gonna be a long year." Warren grumbled to himself well getting up and heading to get on the bus.


Clarity's POV

The bus ride was not what I imagined a bus ride to be like. I mean what happened to bus' staying on the ground?

I couldn't have been anymore happier when the bus finally landed.

But unfortunately right after I got off I had to report to the gym for power placement; I was probably going to be the only junior in that gym.

"This is going to be a long day." I mumbled to myself as I saw how many freshmen there were in the gym.

So instead of dealing with a bunch of kids asking me what my power was, I just decided to sit up in the bleachers and wait for my name to be called.

It was going to be a long wait though; at the being of the thing Principal Powers made a long speech about what power placement was about and how important it was to be a hero or a sidekick.

Once Principal Powers left the gym leaving us with the gym teacher named Boomer the power placement had began.

"Okay ladies this is how its gonna go; once I call your name you're gonna come up here and show us your power, and I'll decide if you're a hero or a sidekick," he told us, "Is there anything you don't get about that?"

When no one answered he called the first name.

"Tommy Givens"

Tommy was a skinny boy with a few zits on his face. He had curly black hair and glasses.

"What's your power?" Boomer asked.

"Umm..."

Even though I was sitting farther away from them, I could still see the sweat start to form on his forehead.

"Come on kid we don't have all day."

"I can change into bugs."

"Show us"

Tommy looked hesitant to show everyone his power, but before Boomer could scold him again he turned into a blue and yellow beetle.

He didn't really do anything except crawl around for a few minutes but other than that that was it.

After a few minutes of doing nothing, he changed back into his human form.

"Is that as big as you can get?" Boomer asked disgustingly.

"Yeah" Tommy said looking down ashamed.

"Can't you turn into a poisons bug?"

"No"

"Fine then SIDEKICK!!" Boomer yelled; the force of the yell was so strong that it pushed poor Tommy off the stage.

And that's how it went on from there.

The good thing was that there was more heroes' than sidekicks, so or eardrums weren't permanently damaged.

Then before I knew it my name had been called.

"So what's your power?" Boomer asked.

I knew when I told him they would all be shocked and terrified just like my family was when they found out; it was now or never though.

"I'm a copier." I answered truthfully.

There was a gasp in the crowed.

"Whhhaaattt" Boomer stuttered with wide eyes.

"I copy powers." I mumbled.

"Umm, okay show us."

"I need someone to copy off of." I told him.

"Fine," Bummer said looking around for a victim.

"Okay, you there," he said pointing to a girl in a blue dress, and curly red hair.

She looked so scared; I felt so bad for her.

"Hi what's your name?" I asked her.

"Molly," she answered looking down.

"What's your power Molly?"

"I can turn invisible," she mumbled.

"Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you." I resisted the urge to roll my eyes before copying her powers.

When I copy people it kinda looks like I'm scanning them. My eyes turn red and I'm quiet for a minute or two.

There are challenges in copying especially for me. When I copy to many powers especially at the same time, I get sick and pass out. So I've learned to limit the number and people I copy

The instant I was done copying her I showed the whole gym my new power.

That's when everybody started whispering.

"Where she go?"

"Oh my gosh is she going to kill us?"

At that comment I just I to roll my eyes.

As I reappeared I turned to face Boomer waiting to see where I had been placed.

"Hero" Boomer told me, the only difference was the way he said it. He didn't yell it like he had yelled everything else.

It was stupid of me to think that people would actually except me and my powers.

Obviously I wasn't the only one who knew what powers like mine had done in the past.

So I don't blame them for being iffy around me.

In truth they should be afraid of me. Not of who I am but of what I could do in the future.

That even terrified me.


I would love to hear what you guess think, the good and the bad. So please review.
