Hey guys, I'm back! Wow, it been so long sorry about that. Writing and having school at the same time sucks. Anyway, i tried my best with Kevin this chapter but, he is just too complicated so don't hate me if he's out of character. Thanx to MidnightGwevinXxX, 11, cookiemonstermayhem, stevie4eva, for favoriting and following my story. Now the story is back!
P.s. Gwen's classes are like really short. Like 35 minutes so then i can write through the class and get to the good stuff because i can tell you right now not alot happens during school.
P.s.s Does anyone enjoy Omniverse? I don't because they took everyone out and now there's only Ben. Not that there is anything wrong with him. i just miss the gwevin. :'(
I look at Ben and we both burst out laughing.
Magister Labrid shakes his head at us. "As crazy as it sounds, aliens do exist. I mean look at me!"
"It's not that we don't think aliens exist. It's that you think we are alien hybrids." Ben says chuckling.
"I might have believed you if my parents were weird but they are as normal as you can get. If only you knew my mom's side of the family." I say.
"Look, I don't have time for this. I'll find you tomorrow and show you that there are alien hybrids on Earth. In fact, I'm pretty sure you already know one."
"Who?" Ben asks but Magister Labrid is gone. "He didn't tell us who it is!"
I shrug. "Maybe, he'll tell us tomorrow."
"If he finds us." Ben scoffs.
"He did the first time, didn't he?"
"This has probably been the weirdest day of my life."
"Tell me about it."
Ben looks at me strangely. "Ok, I'll bite. What happened to you?"
"Way too much to explain tonight. Let's just go home."
I open my eyes to a strange room. Where am I? This must be a dream.
"Hello, Gwendolyn." A woman…err…floats into the room.
"Who are you and where am I?"
"None of that matters right now."
"Then why am I here?" I ask.
"To learn the truth about your bloodline."
My bloodline? "I don't understand."
"What Magister Labrid told you is the truth. You are both human and alien." She explains.
"And so is Ben?"
"Yes but Ben only has alien blood. You, on the other hand, possess alien power. This power is great but you must learn to control it or you will harm yourself and everyone around you. You might even lose your connection to the human world."
I shake my head. None of this is making sense. "Meaning?"
"You'll lose all memories of Earth and your friends. Then, you will only be concerned with power." The woman begins to fade. "I must go; time has run out."
"Wait! You can't tell me something like that and then just leave!" I shout.
"I'm sorry but it is time for me to go and you to wake up. But remember this: Anyone destined for great things didn't ask to be but was simply born that way."
My alarm blares straight into my ears. "AHH!" I fall off my bed and my mom rushes in. "Gwen, are you alright?"
"Hehe, yeah mom, I'm fine. Alarm was a little bit too loud this morning."
She laughs. "You better get going or you'll be late."
As I walk into school later that morning, I think about my dream. What power was she talking about? Sure, she can tell me how strong it is and how it can hurt everyone including myself but she can't tell me what it actually is! I was so deep in my thoughts that I run into someone. I mutter a sorry and walk to my locker.
"Gwen!" Kevin yells, breaking me out of my trance.
"Oh, hey."
"Hello? Where are you?"
"I just have a lot on my mind. What's up?"
"Nothing, you ran into me. Everything ok?" He asks.
"Wow, is the coolest guy in Bellwood actually worried about me?"
Something flashed over his face. Did I hurt him? But the look was gone and replaced with his smirk. "Get over yourself princess." He tried to hide it but I knew what I said hurt him. I just wonder why it did.
I make into homeroom before the final bell. Ben looks at me shock. "Gwen?"
"What, Ben?"
"You are never late!"
"I wasn't late!"
"But you were ALMOST late."
"So? Your point is?"
"What's wrong?"
"Huh?" I didn't expected that question.
"You are never almost late anywhere so there has to be something bothering you." Ben says.
"Wow, you have changed." I can't believe it.
"So there is something. I was right!"
I shake my head. Spoke too soon. "It's nothing. Just a crazy dream."
"About?" Ben asks the same time as the bell rings. "We'll finish this at lunch."
I don't respond because I am too busy thinking about how much Ben has matured. Deep in thought, I run into someone again but this time it's Michael Star. "Uh, hey..." I stutter. Why does he make me so nervous?
"Hey Gwen." He greets me.
"Too bad we don't have any classes together, huh?"
"Are you sure about that?" Michael asks.
I'm pretty sure I would notice if you were in any of my classes. I don't say this though. Instead I say: "I didn't see you in any of my classes yesterday."
"Doesn't mean I'm not in them. Anyway, I've got to go. See you later." He winks as he leaves.
As confusing as the conversation was, it was the last one I had for most of the day. In most of classes, I end up thinking of my so called power and what I'm actually capable of. I even forget to talk to Julie and Emily. Hope they aren't upset.
In math, it was quiet at my table. Julie tries to start a conversation but eventually gives up. Kevin doesn't even acknowledge we are there. Guess I messed up what little of friendliness we had toward each other.
Things get worse when I am called to the board and I mess up on simply addition. Hope makes a joke about how I need to go down back to regular Algebra and this time Kevin didn't defend me. But, what Hope said didn't affect me nearly as much as what Mr. Phillips says.
"Quiet down! Gwen is capable of making mistakes. She is human just like the rest of us." Mr. Phillips shouts. But, the problem is that I'm not human like the rest of them and I'm not ready to accept it. So after he said it, I slouch a little in my seat and am counting the minutes until I can get out of his class.
Halfway through P.E., I manage to get Mr. Hex to let me go to the restroom. he lets me go only because I was running so hard due to all the stress on my mind. When I near the bathroom, I suddenly hear groaning. I open the door to see a girl who looks extremely pale. "Hey, are you ok?"
She walks straight past me as if she doesn't even see me. Then, she collapses. Oh, no. as if I didn't have enough problems already. I check her pulse; it is steady.
"Trina?" Mike is running towards us.
"Mike? What are you doing here?"
"What happened? He asks, ignoring my question.
"I don't know, she just fainted." I shrug.
"We better get her to the nurse." Mike picks her up with ease. Wow, it's like she doesn't weigh anything.
We reach the nurse's office and she takes Trina to a spare room. "Will she be alright?" I ask when the nurse comes back.
"She'll be fine. Just needs some water and food. You guys better head to 5th period." Dang, I missed lunch. Oh well, I wasn't that hungry anyway.
"Ok, please let me know when she gets better." Mike says. "Thanks, Gwen, for stopping to help Trina. That was very nice of you." He takes my hand and I feel a shock. "Ow." "Ha, sorry, I guess I been around too much electricity. See you later."
"Um, ok." After that, I quickly head back to the gym to get my stuff before history. I sprint, trying to get there on time but no such luck. As soon as I walk in, everyone just stops and stares at me.
Mr. Wilson calls me over. "I will let you slide this time because I hear you are a promising student but don't make a habit of this."
"Thanks." Mr. Wilson nods and starts to lector. I sit down next to Kevin but don't say anything to him. I feel him staring but I don't meet his eyes.
Kevin sighs. "Ok, what the hell is going on with you? You are the exact opposite of yesterday! I thought you were kind of cool but, now you're acting like your annoying cousin!"
"I'm sorry, I just have a lot on my mind and it's slowly driving me insane. By the way, you aren't helping by being a jerk."
"Don't go crazy or anything but I," he clears his throat, "was kind of worried about you but not really." He looks away.
I chuckle a little. "Why?"
"I don't know..." Kevin looks surprised at himself. Guess he's not use to worrying about people and to worry about me of all people. "But after you wrote me off this morning and then you weren't at lunch. I got curious." I am trying to contain my smile. "What?" He looks at me, annoyed.
"I can't believe what I'm hearing. You, Kevin Levin, who doesn't give a damn about anyone; cares about me?"
Kevin suddenly looks uncomfortable. "No! I told I am just curious!"
I smile at how I caught Kevin off guard. "Uh huh"
"Shut up and just tell me the damn story!"
"Ok, ok. Touchy." Before I can start, there is a knock on the door.
Mr. Wilson lets a young man in. "May I help you?"
"Uh, yes, I am here to pick Gwendolyn up for an early dismissal. My name is Labrid." The man says.
"Oh of course you have to leave now." Kevin grunts.
"Do you really want to know that bad?" I ask, as I am gathering my things.
"No." I look at him and raise an eyebrow but Kevin is looking away from me. I shrug and leave the room to meet up with Ben in the hallway.
Labrid walks up behind me and pulls out a gun. I give him a confused look but before I say anything, he shoots at the ceiling.
"What was the point of that?" Ben asks, incredulous. Magister Labrid just points up. The sprinkler system! Screams could be heard everywhere!
"Come on, let's go, this hallway is about to get very crowded." We manage to get around the side of the school before everyone rushes out. Once, I get my breath back I ask Labrid what was up.
"I had to get everyone out." He shrugs.
"Why? Was there a bomb?" Ben cries out, still out of breath.
"You'll find that out later but now we need to waste time. Hungry?" Labrid walks off. I look at Ben exasperated but follow. We eat and just chill outside until nightfall. Right when I am about to say I had enough, Labrid says it's time to go and learn everything.
We end up at a cargo train station. "So, what are we doing here?" I ask.
"Stakeout." Labrid replies. "According to a tip from your grandfather, the Forever Knights: a group of criminals who trade in human technology, are supposed to show up here tonight to get a shipment of illegal alien tech."
"Who do they get it from?" I wonder.
"I think you should see that for yourselves. Shh, someone is coming." Trucks pull up and man walks out of the shadows. He is revealed to be... Kevin?!
