Hey! I'm back! Sorry that I haven't added another chapter since, when was it? Monday? I have just been too busy to do any posting. I figured how to change my boot logo. Now every time that I start up my laptop, I see Rainbow Dash doing loop-de-loops. Anyway, enjoy!

Later that week, on Thursday, something terrible happened. When I was on my way to Sixth Period, Brett and Steve walked up to me, and teased me like they normally did. I couldn't control my power, and Brett looked like he was being choked and lifted off of the ground at the same time. I felt really bad for him. Luckily, before his head hit the ceiling, he safely floated to the ground. Before anyone could say another word, I was gone. Everyone would want to bully me even more. That incident made me feel even more ashamed then when everyone laughed at me when I entered Nathan Hale for the first time.

After my first week and three days, I was at lunch again. As soon as I was done eating, I looked up. Jackson was standing in front of me. He told me to follow him. As we ran through the halls, Jackson's friends joined us. They stopped at their lockers. They got in them and closed the doors. Before I knew it, I was crawling into my locker. After I shut the door, something extraordinary happened. A red light flashed over my head. The floor slid out from under me, and I fell into a series of tubes. After a while, I landed into a leather chair. I could hear a voice say "Welcome to the Playground," I was amazed at what I saw. TV screens were all over the place. Each screen displayed live surveillance footage from all over the world. Scientists in white lab coats were huddled at lab stations doing experiments. After a few seconds, Jackson and his friends landed in their own leather chairs. "Ruby, I think that this is a great idea!" Jackson said. "Jade is definitely something special. Don't you remember what she did last Thursday?" I immediately felt guilty. They were talking about when I accidentally lifted Brett off the ground while choking him at the same time. "Honestly, Jackson? You think that everything's a great idea! I say that we should send her to the FBI for testing!" Ruby screamed. I felt as if Ruby knew that I was scared of being sent to the FBI for testing. I would probably die or go mentally insane. I thought that I should say something, so I did. "You saw what happened on Thursday?" "Do you think we're blind? Of course we did! Everyone did!" Ruby hissed. Her arm swelled until it was the size of a watermelon. "I'm allergic to stupid questions," she said after a few seconds. I felt offended, and I wanted to help her. So, I decided to figure out why she didn't want me to be here. I quickly tried to read her mind, but it didn't work. I figured that I would try again later. After a few minutes of awkward silence, Jackson told me to go into what they called "the Upgrade Room." "I'm not going to lie to you. It hurts, a lot." Jackson said. Dad always told me to fall asleep when something painful or scary is about to happen. As soon as I walked in, a cot rose from underneath the floor. I knew that I should probably lie down, so I did. "Enter code name," the computer said. "I don't have one," I said. "Scanning for weaknesses," the computer said. "Weakness detected," Wow! That was fast! "Has telekinetic and telepathic power that is uncontrollable. Beginning upgrades process." I knew that the next part would be painful, so I closed my eyes and when I woke up, it was over.
