I followed Troy deeper into the forest. Apparently, he said that it was too dangerous to tell me in public. I felt my feet give out and fell to the ground. Troy helped me up and carried my bridal style.
"It might be easier this way." Troy said. I nodded my head. "Hold on tight." Then we were off. I felt like I was flying. The wind passed through my hair leaving it flying behind me. The trees and plants were all a blur of green passing by me. We finally made it out to a clear area with a few lighting. Troy set me down and I instantly felt dizzy.
"What...how...you....fly?" I asked gasping for air. Troy sat me down.
"Are you okay?" Troy asked. I finally was able to overcome my dizziness.
"I'm fine." I said. "What was that?"
"Running really really fast." Troy said shyly. I looked at him to continue. "Well my parents Teri and David, Sharpay, Nick, Zeke, Miley and I are not human. We're Beauties."
"Beauties?" I asked. Troy sat down next to me.
"Back in 1970's scientists conducted an experiment. So scientists made us. Beauties were originally intended to be a superhuman. They cross-breeded many things to get what we call Beauties. We're called Beauties well most of all because we're beautiful. However, back then the idea of superhuman was to be like a god. Unfortunately, that isn't possible and there were many flaws. So they just gave it up." Troy said. "They let us go to the world. Teri and David physically 20 at the time decided to take Sharpay and I in. We were like twelve back then. So they changed Sharpay and I's age so it would make more sense and we've been living for 30 years like this. We're kind of like Kyle XY the guy that was an experiment."
"That's how you ended up?" I asked. Troy nodded.
"I was part of the original experiment." Troy said. "So was David, Teri and Sharpay. Beauties have the ability to run very fast and the ability of super strength. Also, we each have each have an unique ability. Sharpay has the ability to read people's emotion if they are sad, happy or depressed. I can read minds if I concentrate on them. Teri has the ability to have care and compassion. David has the ability to control objects with his mind. Miley has a more advanced ability of super strength and super speed. Nick has an auroa that can control what emotions people feel. Zeke has ten times the super strength a normal Beautie has."
"This explains so many things." I said shaking my head. Troy chuckled.
"Even though we have cool powers, it's not worth it." Troy said. "The flaws vary from one tiny muscle being paralyzed to having another side."
"Another side?" I asked.
"It's probably the biggest flaw and the number one reason why the scientists gave up." Troy said. "The other side of us is horrible. It makes us psychopaths and homicidal. It makes us not think about what we're doing and just keep killing and killing innocent people. We can control it but unfortunately only one thing triggers it."
"What?" I asked.
"The scent of human blood." Troy said. I felt my jaw drop and my eyes widened like big plates. "Don't worry. We got really good at controlling it." Troy reassured me. "It's just I don't know why but the scent of your blood....."
"Triggered you to turn to your ugly side." I finished for him. "Are you going to grow older?" I asked.
"We can control it." Troy said. I looked at him very confused. "Well we take these medicines that make us grow older. This medicine doesn't effect humans."
"How do you become one?" I asked.
"Well David came up with these medicines that work 99.9%. He is a doctor after all. It's a painful and long process." Troy said. "We don't usually do the medicines on people unless they really need them. Nick had been in a drunk driving accident and was left to die until Teri found him and brought him to David to make him become a Beautie. Miley was in a coma at where David was working. They were about to put her off life support when David took her home and turned her into one too. Zeke was ambushed by these gang bangers and Nick carried him home to David who turned him into a Beautie."
"Ohh." I said. I felt a smile on my lips. Troy concentrated on my face before putting on a horrified face.
"NO ELLA!!" Troy screamed at me. He took my by the shoulders and shook me. "It's not worth it!"
"Why not?" I asked. "I can be with you. We can live happily ever after." I added.
"David is looking for a way to try to make us normal. Can't you just wait until then?" Troy pleaded.
"And become a wrinkly old prune by then?" I said. "I don't think so!"
"This discussion is over." Troy said firmly. He stared at me with dark eyes. I fell quiet.
"Now what?" I asked. Troy touched my hair.
"School." He said. He piggybacked me and we ran through the forest.

"I'll see you at Biology." Troy said. He kissed me on the cheek and left me at my locker. I sighed happily and started taking out my books for 2nd period. We missed 1st period but it really didn't matter anyway.
"So Sharpay let's you touch Troy but she won't let me?" I heard a voice say. I turned around and saw Hailiey staring straight at me with fury.
"Yup." I said. Hailey looked at me trying to find something to say.
"Well I don't need Troy." Hailey said. "I have a 3.5 average."
"I have a 4.0." I shot at her. Hailey looked shocked that I would talk back to her but continued.
"I have much more money than you thanks to your sickening father." Hailey said.
"Really?" I said. "I have a credit card thanks to my father."
"I have better clothes than you."
"Slutty clothing is not better."
"Most of my family members like me."
"I'd rather have no mother at all."
"I'm more popular than you." I stared at Hailey in disbelief. She smiled at me with triumph.
"You know what Hailey?" I said. "If your idea of being popular is having people pretend to be your friend, be a sex symbol for the school and being a brat. You can go ahead and be popular. I have people that care about me, a great father and wonderful friends. I don't need to have that unsatisfying status." I walked off to Math class with my head held up high. I peeked a little to see Hailey with her mouth open staring at me. I smirked a little. Chad came up to me and walked beside me.
"Nice going." Chad said.
"You heard?" I asked. Chad nodded.
"Pretty much everyone in the hallway heard and it'll probably be passed around school." Chad said. I smiled at the thought of that.
"I can just see the movie now." Chad said. "The Rise and Fall of the Hailey Empire." I giggled. Chad hugged me before I turned to go into my math class. I peeked a little to see him meeting up with Zeke. They did their 'secret handshake' and laughed. I shook my head. If only he knew.
AN: So that's it. Yup hope you like it.
