Wind, Fire, and Water: Chapter 2
"Well, let's see what you've got." Fatima's hair rustled a little as she rose up off the ground a few inches. She always preferred to hover a little while using her powers. She started to move her hands but stopped as she looked around. She leaned over and whispered something in Coach Boomer's ear. He looked at her questionably then signaled for the car which promptly fell from the ceiling. Fatima raised one of her hands and the car abruptly stopped in midair as if it had encountered an invisible wall. Coach Boomer looked up with approval.
"A wind master huh?" he commented.
"Actually, I don't control wind, I control air," she corrected. "If it was wind all I could do was blow stuff around, but making air do other things is much more useful." All of the freshmen took a few steps back. They were unsure how Boomer would take to being corrected, but Fatima continued on, oblivious to any danger.
"By changing the density of air I can create invisible and quite solid walls. And by manipulating the air around and object, I can make it do just about anything." She twirled a finger in the air and the car began to spin like a top. Boomer frowned at her so she decided to do something more drastic. She smirked and closed her hand into a fist.
Will Stronghold, son of the famous Commander and Jetstream, walked through the halls of Sky High alongside his girlfriend Layla and their friends Ethan, Zack, and Magenta. Will was about to inquire about Warren's location when they suddenly heard a loud crashing sound followed by screams. They smiled.
"Power placement," they all said and laughed as they continued on towards their classes.
Warren Peace watched as his friends made their way down the hall away from him. He could have caught up with them easily, but decided to be alone as usual. He pulled the books he needed out of his locker as a crashing sound and screams reverberated through the halls. He decided to go peek at how power placement was going.
"Did I mention I could do that?" Fatima asked with a smirk. Boomer looked up at the car which was now only a ball of scrap metal. He pushed a button on the remote and it was retracted up into the ceiling again.
"Now that's more like it, HERO!" he declared. Fatima couldn't help but smile. She had just made it into the hero class without even showing half of what she could do with air. Everyone jumped a little when they heard the bell ring.
"Ok, get a move on!" Coach Boomer yelled and they all scrambled for the door. "Moore, not so fast." Fatima turned. "Principle Powers wants to see you in her office. She'll give you your schedule." Fatima turned around and quickly made her way out and towards the Principle's office, grumbling to herself. What did Powers want now? Hadn't she done enough?
Warren glanced through the doors of the gym and saw a girl in white with long hair to match. He heard Boomer declare her a hero and he wondered vaguely what her power was as he walked away, not wanting to be run over by the mob of freshmen that was making its way to the doors he had been standing at.
Fatima was not in a good mood when she was finally released from Principle Powers' office nearly an hour later. She poured over her schedule as she made her way out. She had already missed her first class because of their little chat. Furious, she threw open the door only to run into what felt like a brick wall. Papers and books flew everywhere as she landed on the ground with a thump. She rubbed her backside painfully, but froze when she saw a hand in front of her face.
Her eyes drifted up the arm attached to it and finally settled on the face of the last person she had expected…
A/N: Hey there, hope that you're not too bored... I guess I shouldn't expect anyone to care enough to message or anything, but I'll keep updating anyway.
