Oh no! I thought. They're going to suspend me. I was walking quickly, even though my mind told me to take it easy, the slower I got there, the slower it would happen. They're going to suspend me for using my powers on a teacher and maybe even expel me. Please please please please please please please don't expel me.
Principal Powers was there too.
My palms were sweating like it was one hundred degrees outside. It was only forty.
"Hunter-La Voy!" said Boomer. He was mad, but Principal Powers whispered in his ear and he seemed to calm himself.
Principal Powers cleared her throat, "So, you're a sidekick, huh?"
"Yes..." I said nervously.
"And what is your power?"
"In a nutshell, I can manipulate molecular structures. I can change the shapes and colors of anything I want, including myself."
"Impressive. And you think you are sidekick material?"
"No, ma'am."
"Listen, Pricipal P--"
"Quiet, Lawrence." said Principal Powers sternly.
I know I was shaking in my boots, but... LAWRENCE AHAHAHAHAHAH!!! By the way, doesn't principal powers look an awful lot like Wonder Woman from the old T.V show? On a more serious note.
"Your behavior was unacceptable at the power placement." she said.
Oh no, I thought. Here it comes.
"You're not a sidekick! Hell, your a SUPER hero." I was wondering how she knew who I was... "I know your parents." she said.
"How did you do..." I said dumbfounded.
"I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, Hunter."
"La Voy." I automatically added without thinking. "It's...hyphenated."
"Whatever," she said. "You do realize we still technically have to do a power placement?" she asked, rhetorically I might add.
"Uh-huh," I nodded.
"Okay then." Said Coach Boomer, glaring at me. "Let's do it."
I stepped up next to him. I think because Principal Powers was there (or maybe just out of curiosity) he asked formally. "So what's your Power?"
"I have the ability to Manipulate Molecular Structures."
"Then... GO!" said Boomer.
I decided to show him the other side of my power. I knelt down to touch the gym floor. And a second after my hand touched the floor, my face so obviously rendered me deep in concentration. The whole gym started to turn green. Then it was a jungle, I had camouflaged it with a jungle backdrop. It looked realistic. I manipulated the colors and made it as three dee as possible.
One of my best works yet. It was a convincing scene. Just like a jungle. It was so good you could've reached out expecting to touch one of the vines and realize it was painted on the wall.
The best part was, wait for it, we were all camouflaged too! We were part of the jungle scene. For a moment Coach Boomer was part of a monkey and a tree.
Then he moved.
I have yet to perfect moving camouflage so when he moved he immediately looked like himself.
"Impressive!" said Coach Boomer, and I was taken aback. He was usually pompous and arrogant.
This was the moment of truth, but it really was no matter. I knew I was going to be a
"SIDEKICK!"
WHAT!
