Thanks for reviewing the last chapter. You guys absolutely rock my socks! Anyway, here's Chapter 2... Enjoy it and continue to review. This chapter has also been re-done.
Chapter 2: Reflections and Revelations
In fifteen minutes, they all met and sat in a circle. Dana and Logan were not on speaking terms with Zoey and Chase yet and Michael and Nicole were caught in between. Chase and Zoey were talking as usual, like best friends do, Michael and Nicole were trying to talk, but were nervous around each other. Both couldn't understand why.
'Why does Nicole make me feel weird? I mean it's only Nicole. It's not like there's Halle Berry in front of me, although she is hot, but still. My stomach feels like I have rocks in them when I'm around Nicole. Oh, God. I think I may like Nicole Bristow! Maybe I always have. Man, this is jacked up! I never realized how pretty she looks.' Michael thought, arguing with himself. Nicole was going through the same dilemma.
'Oh, come on. It's only Michael. Although…I don't know, he may score a 9.5 on my cute lip chart tops! He's so funny and sweet, though. I even find the potato chip thing kind of a turn on. Ohmigosh! I like Michael. Have I always liked him? Yeah, I like him. I like him a lot. That Jeremy guy is yesterday's news. It's all about Michael now.' Nicole thought as she came to her discovery.
Dana and Logan were sitting in the silence until Logan had the impulse to break it. Logan smirked that familiar 'you-know-you-want-me-so-worship-me' smirk, and Dana gave him a 'you-better-stay-the-fuck-away-from-me-before-I-kill-you' look.
"Hey babe," Logan greeted flirtatiously. He slid an arm around her.
Dana growled and slapped his arm away. The nerve!
"Don't call me that! Touch me again, and I tear your arm off! Comprende?"
Logan loved getting Dana all worked up. This is what he wanted to do, and they both got an adrenaline rush from arguing with each other. Dana liked shooting Logan down. Logan still remained close to Dana. He just wanted to pester her a bit. Dana glared, sensing he wasn't done with his daily 'annoy Dana' fix. She had to pretend to be annoyed for effect.
"Wanna make out?" Logan asked, while playing a lock of Dana's hair. For some reason, Dana let him.
'Pull away, Dana! Damnit, why does he do this to me? It sucks when Logan has all of this control over me and I can't do anything! God, my life stinks. Zoey will probably rub it in. Little Miss Goody-Two-Shoes. She sickens me sometimes. Oh, well. I'll deal with it. If I can deal with Logan then Zoey's a piece of cake.' Dana thought, racking her brain for a comeback.
"What are you in the mood for? A black eye or a broken nose? Or how about I give you both?" she growled. Logan smirked. It drove Dana crazy when he did that, because he knew he was getting to her. Thank God Logan didn't notice it.
'Man, she's hot when she's angry. I love it when she's like that. It…I don't know…kind of turns me on. Ok, I really need to sleep now. Someone spiked my water.'
"Stop undressing me with your eyes. Why can't you see you love me? I know you want me."
"Oh, really. Then in that case, remind me to gouge my eyes out later!" Dana retorted. She smirked, satisfied with her comeback.
'That shut up him up. He's so hot—Shut up Cruz!' Dana thought as she sat in silence.
'Oh, she so wants me, but the only difference is I want her just as bad. I WILL make her mine. Once I put on the ol' Reese charm, she'll so be snagged. You just wait, Dana. You'll crack sooner or later. I have to have her!' Logan thought with a smirk.
Chase and Zoey were talking as well. They were best friends but neither knew about tonight's events. Zoey mostly questioned Chase about why he called them out so early in the morning.
"Yeah, so why are we here so early? Couldn't we have just talked about in the girls' lounge?" asked Zoey.
Chase shrugged, "Yeah, but I thought it would be more secretive this way. I'm sleepy too, but I won't be able to sleep not knowing what's wrong. Even though, we did talk in the lounge, there would be one problem."
Chase and Zoey thought it over before a familiar name hit them, "Coco!"
Zoey and Chase laughed at how they could think of the same person. Chase marvelled at how beautiful Zoey looked when the moonlight hit her at the right angle, but who was he kidding? She was gorgeous all the time. Zoey thought Chase was a sweet little boy in a teenager's body. He had that child's innocence to him. He has easy to talk to and always found ways to make her laugh. Be it crashing into a flagpole or accidentally riding his bike down a flight of steps. He was her shoulder to cry on, and they shared each other's darkest secrets. Nothing no one else knew, and they liked it that way.
'God, she's beautiful. Especially the way the moonlight hits her. I wish I could tell her so bad. Well, you know what? Time to prove Pretty Boy over there wrong. I'll tell Zoey tonight and risk it.' Chase though with a resolve in his heart.
'Oh my God. I think I may like my best friend. I always have. I'm such an idiot. Chase has always been under my nose, and I didn't see it. Instead what do I do? Date a serial sex freak, and get cheated on.' Zoey thought, regretfully.
Everyone was trying to comprehend what was going on between them. Just trying to process their thoughts. Even Nicole, who was super-ditzy, knew something was wrong. Thoughts were jumbled around when a voice was heard behind them. Everyone screamed and Chase whipped around to find Quinn beaming at them. She was carrying a box of something, and everyone agreed not to ask. Probably just another one of her Quinnventions...or so they thought. Quinn was beaming down on them.
"Hey. Why are all of you out at this hour?" Quinn asked. When someone was out at 3 in the morning, something was fishy. Unless…
Chase replied, "You're smart, so can you answer something for us, right?"
"Of course. I'll try to the best of my ability," Quinn replied, happy to help. "So, what's going on here?"
Dana grew exasperated with Quinn and her psychobabble. She wanted to get away from Logan, not because she didn't like him, but because he was tormenting her. He did strange things to her.
Dana explained in her own way. "We were sleeping and we wake up at the exact second. Is that normal?"
"No, it's not. The odds of six people waking up at the exact same second are odd," Quinn answered while thinking thoughtfully.
Dana crossed her arms and scowled,"Ok, you're smart. Fix it. Then I can go back to sleep like a normal person."
'Maybe it's time to be truthful. I can't keep them in the dark about it anymore.'
Quinn took a deep breath and spoke for what she had to say would be life-changing. They would question the validity of her sanity, but right now, that didn't matter. She knew actually what happened, but Quinn had to confirm it.
"Um, were there like any peculiar dreams or premonitions involved?"
"Actually, yeah there were." Zoey answered. She paused to explain, trying to remember the events of her dream. Zoey explained, "I had a vision of water. Clear water. I was splashing around. Just admiring how beautiful it was, that is, until a wave of water hit me. The scary part is I could control the water and even though the water hit me, I was dry. That's when I woke up."
Chase's face looked like he just had an epiphany. Like he was starting to remember his dream too.
"Yeah, now that you mention it, I had a freaky dream too."
Quinn looked interested at this point and urged him to continue on.
"Mine was of a meadow. It was big and green and I was lying in the grass. The air smelled nice, actually. There were flowers everywhere. Pink ones. White ones. All the colours you could think of. Out of nowhere these thick green vines were shooting out and they surrounded everything and when they left everything was messed up. All of the animals were gone and of all the plants died. There was a dead rose and I touched it. When I touched it, the rose glowed and it started to bloom again. It's like I gave it life again. I snapped out of it and woke up too," Chase explained.
Quinn thought about for a while, and then asked Logan to explain his dream. Logan was clearly bored and didn't want to talk but Quinn's glare made him.
'Jesus Quinn! I'll talk! Just stop with the eyes. I can actually feel them burning through me, but they're not as hot as Dana's…Oh shit! I can't get my mind off of her. I hate this so much.' Logan thought as Quinn waited for him to talk.
"I dreamt of something too. I was surrounded by flames. Usually, it would be scary but this time I wasn't scared. I put my hand on the fire and it didn't burn. Like I could tame the fire. I controlled the fire. The fire didn't control me", Logan explained as he turned to Dana and smirked at her, "but then again…I can control anything and fire's hot. Just like me."
"Oh, please…" Zoey muttered as her breath as she rolled her eyes. There was tension in the air now and Quinn figured Dana should go next.
"Dana? How about you?"
"Well, my dream was kind of strange Darkness. It was pitch black. The darkness wanted to envelope me but it didn't. The darkness allowed itself to be controlled by me. Then I saw myself at a mirror. I wanted to touch the mirror and when I was close to touching it, the mirror shattered into pieces. The sound of the glass shattering woke me up," she explained, reluctantly. Chase was clearly fascinated.
"Wow that was a deep dream," Chase said. Logan decided to step in. Broken mirrors weren't funny, at least not to him.
"Broken mirrors…nightmare," Logan shuddered. He thought of all the mirrors he had smashed for Dana until she would come back.
"Oh. The horror. Broken mirror will signal the end of the world," Michael said with his voice dripping with sarcasm. Nicole bounced up and down wanting to tell them badly about her dream.
'Nicole! Shut up, already. God. With Miss Motor-Mouth going, I can just forget bed. The pillow wouldn't be so bad now…to suffocate her with, and then sleep on!' Dana thought while crossing her arms.
"Me next! Me next!" Nicole squealed with excitement.
"Ok, Nicole, your turn."
'You hate me, don't you? What did I do to deserve this? Why? Why all the time me?' Logan thought while running a hand through his hair. He was starting to get a headache.
Nicole smiled and starting explaining. Well…more like rambling, "I saw the sky and fluffy clouds and I was walking on them. I wonder they feel like. Then one of the clouds had a hole and I fell through it. I was falling, falling, falling and I was screaming really loud. I was surprised when I didn't touch the ground or break my neck or something. Ouch that hurts. I heard a flapping noise and looked around if it was a seagull. I hate seagulls. Those birds are so mean. I sprouted wings and I could fly. They were white. I like white but I like pink better. I love PINK! Wonder if I could fly to a mall...I should try."
'She's even hot when she rambles. Ok, am I really that lovesick?' thought Michael. 'She's…kinda…cute.'
Michael was interrupted by Chase calling out his name.
"Michael!"
"Huh? What?" he asked, kind of dazed.
"It's your turn, dude," Chase replied, eyeing Michael with a hint of suspicion. "You ok, Mike?"
"Yeah, I'm good. Thanks, man."
"Anyway, mine is similar to Logan's only I saw weird electric currents and then I was outside. It was raining and I was struck by lightning. It didn't kill me, surprisingly. Thunder boomed outside and the sound woke me up."
Quinn sighed and looked at the six friends in front of her. How could she tell them? Quinn looked kind of flustered and paled. Zoey was full of concern for Quinn by now. Quinn looked like she was about to hurl. Quinn regained her composure, and she sighed sadly.
She explained, "There's a reason why you all saw these visions. You didn't dream of it. They're memories of your past."
"WHAT?" they all questioned in unison
"I think it's time you knew. I'll tell you."
Chase and Zoey looked scared. Nicole cocked her head to one side in confusion. Dana scowled and crossed her arms, while Logan and Michael raised their eyebrows. In fear, the girls scooted over to the guy closest to them. Zoey to Chase, Dana to Logan and Michael to Nicole. Logan was way too confused to set Dana off. Quinn stared at her friends, fear written on their faces. She hated doing this to them. Quinn sighed sadly.
"Level with us, Quinn. You're creeping us out," Chase said, trying to remain calm. There were red lights and alarms going off in his head, though.
"Please, Quinn. We need to know," Zoey pleaded. She couldn't take the waiting anymore.
"Honestly, I didn't wake up and come down here, just to be kept waiting! Talk or I'll get it out of you…one way or another," Dana threatened, menacingly. She glared at Quinn, hard.
"Dana! We're all tired. Let Quinn speak, please!" Zoey instructed.
"There you go, again! First, you tell me how to feel, and now you try to control my speech!" Dana snapped. "You gonna tell me when to breathe now?"
"Dana, Zoey didn't say anything, she just—" Nicole started.
"Say anything, and I'll make sure your vocal cords never work again…" Dana promised, narrowing her eyes at the brunette. Logan decided to step in.
"Ladies, ladies. Relax. There's enough Logan go around," Logan said, with one of his cocky grins.
Chase rolled his eyes, "Yes, the world revolves around you…"
"Glad we see eye to eye on that one, Matthews."
Michael groaned in frustration, "Obviously sarcasm doesn't ring a bell with you Logan, does it?"
Soon all six were argued while Quinn looked on. Quinn rubbed her temples in frustration. She closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose.
'Okay, be reasonable, Quinn. Ok, forget being reasonable. I've got to put an end to this now! 3...2…1'
"YOU ALL HAVE SUPERPOWERS!" Quinn yelled over the bickering group. Everyone's eyes widened and jaws dropped. Nobody spoke for about 5 minutes. Even Logan was too shocked to make any smart aleck comebacks.
"W-what?" was all Chase managed to stammer out. "But how—I—we..."
"Did you zap yourself with an insane ray? Because we're only teenagers, Quinn. Superpowers? Come on," Logan laughed.
'She has just defined the word freak in a new way,' he thought.
"What kind of superpowers are we talking about here?" Zoey asked. She was still in shock.
Quinn smiled like she had everything under control. Dana's eye was twitching and she blew up.
"QUINN! ARE YOU CRAZY? I WAKE UP FOR THIS? WHAT THE HELL! TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON…NOW!" Dana ranted, and after about 5 minutes, she took a breath deep breath. She was glad to get that out of her system. If only Logan's situation was that easy…
"As Dana, um, put it, could you please tell us what's goin' on? I'm just really cranky and snappy right now," Michael said.
Chase agreed and nodded, "It's true. He almost tore Logan's head off for whining."
"Well, you think I like being up at 3 am? Do you really, Chase?" Logan asked, narrowing his eyes at the bushy-haired teen.
"Logan? We're roomies, right?"
"Yeah," replied Logan.
"Then shut up before I rip your face off! I'm pretty sure girls will be running away from you after that!" Michael snapped.
"Oh, Michael…I've never heard you yell before, and at Logan nonetheless. I like it," Dana said with a smirk.
'And she enjoys my inflicted pain. Sadist… Whoa, where did that come from? I learned something in English. Now I'm scared.' thought Logan.
"Now I'll explain if you want. I'll verify what I'm saying is the truth. You all have a strange birthmark on your left inner forearm, correct?" Quinn asked. Michael raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, but what does that have do with anything?"
"That birthmark you all have has copious relevance to the current situation," Quinn nodded and smiled knowingly. Nicole was just plain lost, with Quinn's choice of words. What the hell did "copious" mean?
"Huh?"
"Roll up your sleeves and look at the birthmarks and concentrate," Quinn instructed.
"Watching paint dry is more interesting," Logan muttered under his breath. He had just woken up to look at a brown spot on his arm. It has always been there, but how did Quinn know, and how come everyone had the same mark?
'Maybe this is another bad dream. Just another bad dream.'
Chase shrugged, "I don't know, guys. Quinn may be right, because of the circumstances. It's creepy how we were all born with the same birthmark. I just want to know if we're actually gifted with kind of powers. It'll be slim, but it's a chance, right?"
"Yeah," Zoey replied, agreeing with Chase.
Everyone rolled up their sleeves. As Quinn said, they all had the stranger birthmark. Chase raised his eyebrow. Zoey shot a confused glance at Quinn. Dana and Logan both glared at Quinn, mostly because of their boredom. Nicole looked surprised at the strange brown mark on her arm like today was the first day she saw it and Michael had a look on his face that said 'WTF!'
"Nothing's happening." Michael said with a monotonous voice.
"Yeah." Nicole chirped. It was definitely too early for Nicole's perkiness.
Quinn smiled knowing what was going to happen, "I wouldn't say that. Look again."
Everyone looked again but this time, there was gasps heard and looks of bewilderment. Chase had a green glow surrounding him and there were green leaves blowing around him in the wind. Zoey had a blue glow and the waves on the oceans got stronger and more powerful. Logan had a bright red glow and he suddenly felt hot and he was sweating. Dana had an eerie dark purple/black glow, and for some reason she was drawn to the darkness. The night's darkness only fed her glow and made her more powerful. Nicole had a heavenly white glow and the more she glowed, the stronger the winds became. Her brunette locks blew in the strong wind. Michael had a bright yellow glow and watched as electric sparks surged through him and bounced on his hands. Their glowing stopped and all six of them had wide eyes. Quinn smiled because she knew she was right all along.
'What the hell? Quinn was right...I can control earth and nature. Quinn, what did you do to me?' Chase thought.
'Oh my God. I control water. How is that possible? I'm only 16. Where did the beautiful blue glow come from? Did that come out me?' thought Zoey.
'I always knew I was hot. Now I can prove it. Fire, huh? This could be fun,' Logan thought with a smirk.
'Hmm...I control the powers of darkness, nice... This could have its advantages…' Dana thought, with an evil plan formulating in her head.
'I control wind...YAY ME!' Nicole thought, happily. Whatever floated her boat. But then again, she didn't have a boat. Oh, boy…she was confused. Anymore thinking and she would have a brain haemorrhage.
'I can't control light. That's just whack.' Michael though, trying to process everything.
Chase broke the eerie silence between them, although the realization hadn't hit him yet.
"So, as it stands right now. I control all of the Earth's nature, Zoey controls water, Logan's element is fire, while Dana has control of the dark. Nicole can control air and wind while Michael can control lightning and light?" Chase asked, trying to clarifying everything. Quinn only nodded.
"Yes. I'll explain your powers and abilities. Starting with the earth ones," she said.
"Um, sure. I'm still waiting for all of this to sink in but ok, tell me." Chase replied, nervously. He didn't get it, but he listened anyway.
Quinn explained, "Chase, you have the earth elements because you are a down-to-earth guy. You have the ability to make vines and roots shoot up from the ground. Those are your offensive attacks "Roots of Evil" and "Vines of Confusion". This attack is useful for slowing people down. There is a special attack but you're going to have to figure that one out because for I'm not sure what that is. You also have the ability to resurrect living things and give life again. You can also conjure up flowers. All you have to do is snap your fingers, literally. The flowers will appear in the hands of the person who want to give them to. Just release the element within you and focus. When you feel the energy bubbling over, snap your fingers."
"Ok, it's worth a shot." Chase naturally obliged. He wanted to see it would work or not.
Chase stared at his hands and focused on his earth element. He started seeing trees blowing in the wind. He felt a boost of energy but it wasn't bubbling over yet. He wanted red roses. 12 of them for Zoey. Zoey. Red roses. The energy overwhelmed him and he glowed again, a bit too strong this time. He snapped his fingers when he couldn't stand it anymore. Zoey gasped to see a bouquet of red roses in her arms. Chase was shocked all over again and blushed when Zoey smiled at him.
"Thank you, Chase. They're beautiful and they smell nice." Zoey smiled. Thank God it was dark or else Chase would've seen her cheeks turning a deep scarlet.
Chase swore he could feel himself turning red, "You're welcome."
Logan grew tired of the love-fest about to evolve here. After all, everything revolved around him, right? "Can we move this along? I want to know what powers I have. It's all about the Loganator."
There were 6 pairs of eyes glaring at him. Why was Logan such a jerk?
"Ok, Logan. You have the element of fire because you are a passionate guy, believe it or not. You have the ability to make things explode and you can shoot fire out of your hands. Your offensive attacks are "Eruption" and "Fire Storm". This attack causes damage to your enemies. You also have Mind Control, meaning you can get anyone to do whatever you want. There is almost a special attack for you too, Logan but like I told Chase you have to figure it out. To shoot fire out of your hands, concentrate and unlock your element and think of fire," Quinn said.
"Will it get you to stop talking so much?"
"Ugh! Logan, you're such a bastard!" Zoey yelled.
"Love you too Zoey. How about we stop by my dorm for a make-out session?"
Zoey wrinkled her nose in disgust, "Not now. Not ever."
He only shrugged, "Can't blame a guy for trying."
Logan sighed and focused, harder than he ever did in his entire life. Pictures of flames haunted his mind. There were flames everywhere. He suddenly starting to sweat and he felt hot. His hands glowed fire engine red and a stream of flames shot out of his left hand, barely missing Zoey. Zoey jumped onto Chase's lap because of that. Chase had no objections but he did blush a little.
"Logan! Watch where you aim that stuff, will you?" Zoey screamed, unaware she has climbed on Chase's lap. "You go from wanting to swap spit with me to burning me to a crisp. Great."
Logan smirked and crossed his arms, "Well, well, well. It seems I did you a favour. Look at whose lap you're sitting on."
"Huh?" Zoey looked down and realized she was sitting on Chase's lap. She immediately blushed.
"Oh, sorry Chase. I'll get off." Chase was ecstatic to have Zoey sitting on his lap. She wasn't that heavy anyway. In fact, she was as light as a feather.
"It's ok. I don't mind. You can sit on my lap. I wouldn't want Logan burning you to a crisp anyway."
"Thanks." Zoey said with gratitude. The two locked eyes. It looked like they were about to lean in when—
"Zoey?" Quinn's calling her name made sure Chase and Zoey tore their eyes away from each other, at least for now.
"Yeah, Quinn?"
Quinn explained in great detail, "You have the element of water. You got this element because you are as calm as water but when you have strong emotions when you're provoked. You also have the gift of healing yourself and others. It's useful in combat. Your offensive attacks are "Whirlpool" and "Tsunami". Meaning you can instigate waves of unspeakable heights, therefore drowning your enemies. You can shoot water out of hands too. Like Chase and Logan, there is a special attack in store for you. Unlock the element within."
"I'm not sure if I can," Zoey replied, with some degree of nervousness. Chase, being the best friend he was, encouraged her. He knew she was scared. Who wouldn't be after finding out you and your friends control the forces of nature?
"Come on, Zo. You can do it."
"Thanks, I'll try," she replied back.
Zoey concentrated on her element. Flashbacks of water, lakes, and waterfalls flooded her mind. She too glowed a beautiful blue and the energy of her element also subdued her. She stretched out her hand and a powerful stream of water shot out of her right hand, barely missing Logan. Zoey crossed her arms and smiled. Dana tried to suppress a laugh threatening to come and Logan glared at her.
"Don't make me burn you," Logan said, as he glared at Dana. Dana obviously wasn't going to take this one sitting down.
"Remember it's still dark out, and I could kick your ass even without my powers."
"Not with my fire you can't," Logan retorted. He just did that to set Dana off. She loved the attention, and wanted to play along with it.
"Oh, yeah? Bring it on Pretty Boy!" she retorted back.
"It's already here! And that's Mr. Pretty Boy to you!"
Michael rubbed his temples in frustration. It was way too early for this. He wanted to go to bed…now!
"Shut up and make up already! You know you like each other! Stop faking it!" Michael growled. He was still kind of cranky from being up so early.
"Yeah, what Michael said." Nicole nodded, obviously agreeing. Quinn just sighed, and ignored Dana and Logan's pouting.
"Now I'll explain the dark powers."
Quinn sighed, "Finally. Someone talking who isn't Logan. Go on."
"Dana, you have the element of darkness. You got this element because you aren't exactly a ball of sunshine. You're moody, but no messes with Dana Cruz. You like to protect those around you and no one causes your friends pain and gets away with it. You're blunt and you are brutally honest even though no one wants to hear it. You do, however, have a vulnerable side but that isn't expressed too much because of your high walls. You're special gift is Telekinesis, meaning you can move things or causes levitation with only the power of your mind. You're offensive attacks are "Shadow". This attack makes you completely invincible. Your other one is the "Demon of Destruction" which will possess you and make you pure evil, but it's temporary. This attack is deadly and the demon inside of you will allow you to destroy anyone in your path. There's another special attack but I don't know what that is. Try to find inner evil and unlock the darkness within," Quinn explained.
Dana rolled her eyes, "Whatever."
Dana focused and closed her eyes. She thought of everything that made her mad. The darkness outside was pitch black. She had found her inner evil and the darkness of the night made her glow purple. Zoey clutched on to Chase as they and the rest of their friends watched. Dana opened her eyes and smirked as she stretched her left hand toward Logan. Logan levitated into the air and soon Zoey, Chase, Michael, and Nicole were looking up.
"Dana! Put me down!" Logan was at least 3 feet above the rest.
She smirked as she kept Logan in suspension. Dana pretended to think about it, "Should I?"
"Yes!" Logan was annoyed. He was going to get Dana back later.
"Fine, God. You always got to ruin my fun," she said bitterly.
Logan replied in a flirty tone, "Don't worry, baby. We'll have lots more fun...like making out."
"Ugh! You're nasty!"
Logan only smirked, "You know you like it."
Dana finally gave up and set him down on the ground. Dana smirked. Whoever gave her these powers, she was for once grateful.
"Who wants to know about their powers?" Quinn asked.
Nicole's hand shot up in the air, like she was in a classroom. "Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me! Me!"
"Ok, Nicole." Quinn laughed at Nicole's enthusiasm. Maybe that's why she got the element she did.
"Yay!" Nicole chirped as she clapped her hands together. Quinn smiled at Nicole and explained.
"Nicole, you have the element Air. You got this element because of you bubbly personality. Your happy-go-lucky personality. You're not the brightest but you like to be around your friends—"
Nicole interrupted, "And don't forget. Cute boys. And I like to shop. I like pink things. I think I'll name my first daughter Pink…"
Quinn laughed a little. She was one of the few people that could tolerate Nicole's rapid speech. Quinn explained, "Yes. Those too. Anyway, you're special gift is flight. You can fly. Your offensive attacks are "Sonic Scream". This attacks allows you to scream so loud at a high frequency. Not only will everyone get headaches for a week but that scream can break any surface no matter how hard. Your second one is called "Tornado". Like everyone you have a third attack, figure it out. You need to call a strong wind and spin at high speed for this one to work. Think of all the things that make you happy and focus."
"Ok."
Nicole pictured all the things that made her happy. Michael sitting beside her. The new pair of sneakers she was wearing. Her friends. PCA. Everything. Suddenly, Nicole glowed brightly and the winds came stronger and more powerful. She felt different somehow. Just different. Nicole gasped when she saw white feathers around her and she wasn't on the ground anymore. She had sprouted white angel-like wings and she was flying while her friends looked on.
Nicole gasped in surprise. "Ohmigosh! You guys! I can fly! Weeee!"
"That's great but come down!" Quinn shouted from below.
"Aww, ok," she said sadly. In a second, her voice took a happy tone.
Nicole flapped her wings until her feet touched the ground. Her wings went into her back and soon she didn't have them anymore. She smiled and took her seat next to Michael.
"That was fun. I should fly around again." Nicole said while grinning. Quinn explained Michael's abilities.
"Last but not least, Michael. You have the element of light and electricity because you keep everyone in check, almost like Zoey. Your offensive attacks are "Shockwave" and "Lightning Punch" You also have a sense of what is right and wrong. You're able to manipulate the weather to your liking and you can shoot lightning out of hands. In order to do that, you might to concentrate on your element. Give it a try."
"Ok. The quicker I can do this. The quicker I can get to sleep."
Michael focused on his elements. Thunder. Lightning. Light. He soon started to glow yellow and sparks formed around his hands. Michael felt the power surge through his body and soon an electric current shot out of both his hands, and nearly skinned Logan. Logan was clearly pissed. Everyone else laughed.
"What is this? Is it "Let's pick on Logan" Day?" Logan questioned, peeved.
"Yeah, pretty much," Zoey answered while shrugging lightly.
"Thanks Quinn for telling us. You've been a great help." Chase said, smiling but he was kind of sleepy.
They all stood up now.
"No problem. Now, if you don't mind, I have another Quinnvention to tend to. I just hope it didn't explode yet."
Quinn grabbed her box and smiled at her friends and bounded off.
"Ok, we all know what's happening there. So, I need to catch some shut-eye. We'll deal with this later."
Michael threw his hands up in the air. "Hallelujah! Sleep!"
Chase quietly laughed, and Zoey giggled at Michael's charade.
"Yeah, sleep sounds good," agreed Zoey, while rubbing her eyes.
Nicole yawned, and Logan was trying to keep his eyes open. Dana pinched him.
"'Night ladies," Logan said tiredly. Even jerks needed their sleep.
"It's Saturday so we'll meet up for breakfast in the quad," Zoey suggested.
"Yeah, sounds good." replied Nicole. She was too tired to go into full-blown conversation.
"Whatever," replied Dana, shrugging.
It was now 5am and the darkness was starting to fade away. They all agreed to catch some more sleep and meet back for breakfast at 10am. It was Saturday and there were no classes, to everyone's liking. The 6 friends all walked in the same direction, until they went to their buildings. Logan, Michael, and Chase went left to Bradford Hall, while Dana, Zoey, and Nicole went to Butler Hall.
Little did they know, a pair of eyes was watching the entire time. Glenn Davis was smirking evilly. Now his plan could be set in motion.
A/N: Oooo…the suspense. What does Glenn have up his sleeve? Stay tuned. Oh, and keep those reviews coming! Thanks so much!
