I looked around the dumpster that I was hiding behind. The sun was going down, and there was barely anyone out on the street. But I could see a couple people walking around. I was different; I've been different ever since I was five. I could see colors around people; my mom called them auroras, but I could also move water with just a flick of my hand. People have been hunting me ever since my parents died ten years ago, and now I was being hunted yet again by someone I didn't even know. But this time it was different; this person has an ability just like me. He could blast holes in walls with just his voice. When the coast was clear I made a run for it. I ran down the street; heading towards my hide out. I reached an old abandoned building at the end of the block. I ran into the building, and up to the attic. I flopped down on the mattress, and fell asleep…

…I sat up, and listened. I swear I heard something. Then I heard it again; the slight creak of the floor boards. I silently got up, and moved to the window. I opened up a water bottle that was sitting next to the window, and 'bended' the water out of the bottle, then opened the window. I waved my hand out the window, flinging the water down towards the ground. I clenched my hand into a fist, and the water turned to ice. I jumped out onto the sliver of ice, and slide down to the ground. Just as my feet hit the ground, I heard a loud bang, followed by the sound of a door hitting a wall, up in the attic. I raced off in any direction. I ran as fast as I could, for 12 blocks, then I jumped over a fence, and ran through the back yard, and ducked under a bush.

I sat there trying to catch my breath. I looked out from under the bush, and looked around the yard I was in. I looked up at the house in front of me. I could see someone standing at a window staring at me. He was young, with short brown hair, and he had a very bright light brownish blue aurora. I sat there staring at him, and he stared back. He was moving his hands around doing something, but I couldn't tell what he was doing. I sat there for what felt like hours.

"Stay right where you are," A voice behind me said. I turned my head to see a guy with very short brown hair, and blue eyes, with a blue aurora, was standing behind me. I moved my hand over the ground, pulling water out of the ground. The man looked at me funny. I raised my hand, and reached out towards him, causing the water to fly towards him, and I clenched my hand into a fist turning the water to ice. The man ducked to the side just before the ice crystals hit him in the face. I jumped up, and ran towards the gate. Just as I was about to jumped over the gate I was tackled to the ground. The guy grabbed my arms, and pulled them behind my back.

"It's all right you can come down now," The guy said. I struggled, trying to pull my hands out of his grasp. He yanked me up off the ground. I could see the other guy come out of the house.

"Get off me," I yelled, trying to pull my arms out of his grasp.

"What where you doing here?" The guy restraining me asked.

"Hiding," I replied. The other guy walked over, and stood in front of me. I glared at him. His aurora color shifted slightly to an even lighter shade of brown. He's scared? I turned my head slightly to look at the guy restraining me. His aurora had shifted to a dark blue. Okay so he's angry.

"Hiding from what?" The man asked.

"None of your business," I hissed. The guy looked over at the guy standing in front of me. He tossed a set of keys to him.

"Gary, could you get the car started for me?" The man asked. Gary nodded his head, and ran into the house. The guy restraining me, dragged me through the house, and out to the front yard. He dragged me over to a car, and Gary opened the back seat door. The man pushed me into the car, and cuffed me to the handle on the door. Then he sat in the driver seat, and Gary sat in the passenger seat. I sat back, and closed my eyes…

…I was sitting in a chair in a small room. It looked like one of those interrogation rooms you see on those crime shows. I'd been sitting here for almost half an hour, when the guy who had brought me here walked into the room.

"So what where you doing at my friend's house?" He asked.

"I told you, I was hiding," I replied.

"From what?" He asked. I glared at him.

"Come on just tell me, maybe me, and my friends could help you," The man said. I looked at him. His aurora had changed to a dark shade of bluish red, showing that he was very annoyed.

"How do I know I can trust you?" I asked. He sighed.

"You can trust us, just tell me who you're hiding from," The guy said.

"First who are you?" I asked.

"Cameron Hicks," He replied.

"Lilly," I said.

"Well Lilly would you mind telling me who you were hiding from?" Hicks asked.

"I don't know who he is, but I've seen him blow a hole in a wall, just by yelling," I said, looking at Hicks. He didn't seem too surprised to hear this. He walked out of the room, then came back in a couple minutes later with an older man that had grey hair, and a bright green aurora.

"Hello I'm Dr. Rosen," The older guy said walking towards me.

"Now Hicks told me what you said, he also told me what you did back at Gary's house," Dr. Rosen said. I groaned, and put my head down on the table.

"The only reason I mentioned that is because I'd like to un-cuff you, but I want to make sure you're not going to attack one of us," Dr. Rosen said. I looked up at him, and nodded my head. Dr. Rosen smiled, and un-cuffed me. I rubbed my wrists.

"So are you guys like the FBI or something?" I asked. Dr. Rosen laughed.

"No, but we help people like you, and we do put people like the guy you're hiding from in… jail," Dr. Rosen said.

"Your pause between in, and jail leads me to believe that it's not jail, and then there's the fact that when you said jail your aurora shifted from a very bright green, to a bright greenish yellow," I stated. Dr. Rosen looked over at Hicks. Hicks shrugged his shoulder.

"Oh yeah I can see bright… or dark colors around people, my mom called them aurora's," I explained.

"So you can move water with just your hands, and see people's auroras?" Hicks asked. I nodded my head. I was so tired, and I was starving.

"Could I have something to eat, 'bending water' as my mom used to call it takes a lot of energy out of me," I said.

"Yeah sure, just give us a second," Dr. Rosen said. I nodded my head, and watched them leave the room, Dr. Rosen came back with a sandwich.

"Thanks," I said taking a bite out of it. Dr. Rosen left the room, and when I was done my sandwich I set my head down on the table, and fell asleep…
