Chapter 4: Control
My eyes widened as I looked at the boxes sitting in front of me.
Carlisle just watched me along with the rest of the family. They were waiting for my next move. I took a cautious step toward the boxes. I took another. I reached the boxes and leaned down and quickly opened one labeled 'emotions'. I jumped back and screamed but nothing happened. Emmet cracked a smile.
I walked over to the boxes cautiously. I opened a few more to find that all the boxes were really sitting before my eyes.
I turned around and faced the very confused family. "Well," I explained, "Uhm...well I guess in a nutshell, I just made my thoughts turn real. I was looking for something to control my new power and they just appeared here." I smiled at my self because I was talking like a maniac.
Emmet smiled, "Now tell us what really happened." He said with a chuckle.
I raised and eyebrow at him and said "That IS what happened." They just appeared out of no where!" I threw my hands in the air for emphasis.
Carlisle pondered the task at hand. "Well,…that's definitely…new" He said trying to find the right word for it.
I turned around and grabbed my manual and gave it to him. "This book thing has a bunch of powers listed with descriptions of each. You can have it." I smiled "I bet I can just make another in my head."
Carlisle smiled too. 'Thank you Bella, this is really…something."
I ran my fingers through my hair and smiled, "Another mystery to figure out." Then I turned and looked through some of the boxes. Soon the family joined me and learned about me even more. Each box held an adventure of embarrassing parts of my life.
Joy.

After we had moved the boxes into the garage, we sat down in the living room. Alice and Jasper headed out on a hunting trip because school was starting soon. I was going to go, but I wasn't sure what the magnetic forces would do to the animals.
I carefully sat upstairs in my room with the door closed because I could see the tips of the knifes and forks lodged in the door and I could see the shining of the toaster and spoons on the floor waiting for me to come out.
I read my manual 4 times but I cant figure out how to control my power. Eck. I have to start school in about a week too. And I know people will notice I look different, and our story is that I had a extreme makeover. I hope the people believe it. Charlie had moved away to another small town up in Maine.
But all I really cared about right now was to stops the forks from following me. I was careful not to picture anything dangerous in my head because I wasn't sure if it would appear or not. The only progress I've made is that I can make things disappear back into my mind. Yay.
I sighed and opened my eyes to the computer screen going fuzzy, but then stopping and going back to normal. I heard a clank and the toaster fell to the ground along with the spoons, forks and knifes.
Oh jeez, I don't even know how I stopped it.
I opened my bedroom door with my bare hand. Id been wearing gloves so I didn't hurt my self.
Hah. Me? Hurt myself? No way.
