Amanda's Diary
August 1st 2035,
Today was a wow day. I woke up to my brother pulling my hair ( as usual) and the night ended with me shooting fire from my eyes. I guess you could call it an ordinary day in the Kent household. I was on a date with an incredibly hot guy ( Brad Myeres) Who likes me back and then I looked like a scared little girl and ran away. My dad is going to help me tomorow with my new ability. I kinda feel glad like I fit in with my family more ( since were so normal ) but then again it's like I am going to have to be careful with this and stuff. It's kind of a curse in a way. I don't know but its 1 a.m and I am going to bed. goodnight.
Next day.
Lois was up already making pancakes for her daughter's specical day, and taming the wild beast . ( Johnathan) .
She deciced to let Amanda sleep in a little so she could get all the rest she needed.
" Amanda up yet?" Clark asked as he came in throght the door with a greasy white t-shirt and greasy hands.
" Oh it is a special day, no plaid and an all white well sort of white t- shirt my favorite " Lois said kissing him on his lips.
" Very special " He replied smiling
" No not yet" She said flipping a pancake
" Well it's 11:30 im going to wake her up " he said cleaning off the grease from his hands.
" I want to let her sleep sweetie... she needs all the rest she can get"
" I know... I .. Im just so excited .. I have always wanted to do this with one of my children and now it's time and well im just really happy ."
" I know I know but please just give her 30 more minutes" Lois pleaded
" Fine 30 minutes but that's it. "
" Okay"
" Where's Johnathan?"
" He told me he was going to feed the chickens." Lois replied flipping another pancake
" Okay... can you possibly watch him while I help Amanda? I ... I dont want him in the way and I dont want to scare him you know?"
" Yeah Okay.. I will think of something"
" Thank you " He said and kissed her again and went over to the platter and poured some batter onto the griddle then used his heat vision to bake the batter .
" HEY!" Lois shouted
" What ? Im hungry and this is so much quicker!" He exclaimed
" Gosh Clark you have to be fast about Everything?" She said excentuation the everything.
" Kinda" he replied with a smile " I will be back in 20 for Amanda" he said leaving at superspeed.
Clark went outside only to find his son running around trying to avoid the greedy chickens from practiclly killing him. Clark ran into the rchicken mess and yelled shoo shoo.
" Thank you daddy"
" No problem...do you want to help daddy spread some seeds today?"
" YEA YEA! "
" Alright well if you are a good little boy and go take your nap when your mommy tells you too then you can help me" Clark said making a deal
" Do I gotta?"
" Only way"
" Alright..."
"Okay" Clark said looking at his watch it had been 20 minutes " Go get sissy for me"
" Yay!" He said running into the house
" Morning mom " Amanda called rubbing her head
" Morning baby... how you feel?" Lois said giving her a kiss.
" I got a headache..." She said
" Ohhh well okay I will go get your father just sit down please!" Lois said running outside
" Mom its okay you don..."
" Amanda baby whats wrong?" Clark asked hugging her
" Oh I just got a headache that's all really it's okay..." She said rubbing her temples
" If your head hurts your most likely going to begin shooting sometime soon so lets go outside and practice a little okay? He said
" Yeah okay just let me grab a cup of ... Okay going outside I feel it coming!" She said running outside.
" Dad..." She cried rubbing her head " where do I go?"
Clark picked her up and supersped out to the feild of thier farm.
" Just shoot anywhere ... but try not to hit me please" He said with a laugh
" I dont want to burn... your new crops dad.." She said still in pain
" I dont care just shoot it anywhere"
And immediatly the fire shot out and started a single corn husk on fire.
She stepped away watching it burn... she turned to say something to her father but then he was already using his ice breath to put it out.
" Dad... I .. Im .. sor." She began
" You mean you did it ... good job baby" he said givning her a hug.
" Yeah... your no mad?"
" Why would I be mad? Are your forgetting that I once had the same problem you do ?"
" Yeah I guess I did"
" I had it worse than you too... I almost killed my first girlfriend ... then I didn't take it very well but you see it as the gift it is and I am so proud of you."
" I love you dad' She said hugging him
" I love you too" he said rubbing her back in a comforting manner.
" No lets try to do it on porpuse so we can controll it this time okay?"
" Yeah Okay"
" Okay now look off into the distance and picture in your mind Brad Myers."
" Dad! Mom told you?"
" It's okay"
" Alright"
" Now focus... think really hard..."
" And stare off let me know when you begin to feel your eyes warm up "
" I feel them already "
" Alright now just let loose all of the tenison building up and aim... "
" Fire" She said as they let loose and she once again shot the flames.
" BABY ! YOU DID IT!" He said clapping an hugging her again then putting out the flames just as before
" Now try on more time on your own "
" O...kay!" She did it agian.
" YES!" He cried out !
" I can do it !" She said jumping into his arms now!
" I love you so much .. your growing up and oh!" He said at a loss for words and hugged her.
