Chapter 2
"Hello, Mr. Moon. Mrs. Jace, please have a seat."
Tara and I were listening from the outside. apparently my dad was in there.
"Hello, Victor. Dr. Jace." my Dad said.
I never really liked my father. well I never got to know him. when my mother died I was left with Uncle Victor.
"Jade, what are they saying?" Tara asked behind me.
i listened in.
My father hesitated,"No. No, no. You can't do that. Not without my permission."
"Well I suppose not," Uncle Victor talked calmly," but why wouldn't you want to? Imagine this, your offspring changing the world. wouldn't that be amazing? Thats why Brion ad Tara will also receive the treatment."
" I suppose, but i cant afford it."
Dr. Jace spoke up," I am funding everything. You won't pay a dime."
You have three days. If you don't come up with anything you cannot do it again. Understood?"
"We have a deal."
"Jade,' Tara tugged at me," whats going to happen?"
"Im not sure."
Three days had passed and we figured out what the "treatment" was.
We got superpowers.
At least, thats what they told us. we hadn't tried them out yet.
We were trying them out today and we were really exited.
Well, Brion and I were exited. Tara seemed gloomy, but that didn't bother me to much.
Brion peeped up,"Dad, what kind of superpowers are we supposed to have?"
He rubbed his chin,"Good question, I'm not sure. I believe it has to do with rocks and such, but I'm not very sure."
"Okay."
soon we were outside and ready to try the powers out.
Dr. Jace was ouside," Good morning test subje-children. Anyways, your powers should be earth related. I have no idea how you activate them so try everything relevant."
For a few moments we just stood there. Suddenly Brion lifted a chunk of earth. It was amazing.
Tara struggled, but eventually got her rock into the air.
Then there was me.
I tried but i couldn't do it.
"MA'AM I CAN'T DO IT!" I screamed.
"What? impossible. It was garnered to work!"
"Well i can't do it."
She bent down and got to my eye level,"Then you, my darling, are a failure."
I got mad.
Suddenly a sharp feeling in the earth was growing.
Soon my hands and eyes were glowing purple and two rows or sharp crystals jutted out of the ground. Aimed for Dr. Jace.
The rows of crystals meted to one but just before it could do the fatal blow it stopped. I stopped it.
That wasn't the only bad thing that happened today. It got worse. A lot worse.
