6. Child of Heros

Mom and dad don't live in the same house anymore. They say they still love each other, and me, but that it's better this way. Sometimes I stay at mom's house, but she's gone a lot. Offworld, where I'm not allowed, so mostly I just stay at Dad's.

And that's ok. I love mom, but I when I stay with her we eat weird foods, and she gets sad when I ask her for pizza with just the normal toppings. Really, I know I'm not all the way human. But my friends are, and most of my family is, and sometimes I wish I was too. She gets sad if I tell her that too.

Dad has a lot of friends, and even though most of them are human, some of them can fly, and they are teaching me how to fly. And how to use my powers. I have powers. I am very strong and I can shoot starbolts. When I was very little I could not do these things, but now I am big enough and I can. Dad says it's very important to know how to use my powers, and to know when to use them. I get in trouble if I use any powers at school.

The thing you need most to use powers is control. Dad tells me that all the time, that I need more control. One time after powers lessons dad took me out for ice cream. He said he was very proud of how much control I had over my powers.

While I was eating my ice cream a man with white hair walked in. I pointed him out to dad because I thought he looked like a pirate with his eye patch. My dad got very still and strange.

The man looked at us, and he smiled, so I smiled back. I looked at my dad to see if he was smiling back too, but he was not.

The smiling pirate left, and dad said it was time to go, even though I didn't finish my ice cream. When I complained he had the waitress put it in a plastic cup that I could take home.

When we got home he made lots of calls. Then he told me that I was going to stay at mom's house for awhile to work on getting control for my powers. He said it was very important that I could use my powers because some people might want to hurt me to get at him. I asked if he meant like pirates, but he didn't answer.

After that I lived mostly at my mom's house Offworld. I try not to say things that make her sad anymore.
