Spark Chapter 2, a sky high fanfic

Evangeline was never the most extraverted person. Considering that, she and Warren should make good Mad Science partners, right?

So, I'm very pleased with the response to the first chapter. I hope that I'll get about the same or better (key word hope). I hope you guys like this new chapter. Please remember that pretty little blue "Review" button at the bottom of the page! 

Disclaimer: Sorry, forgot this the first time, but I do not own Sky High. I only own Evangeline, Edward, Emmett, and the rest of their family.

"Monday, you will have a project due!" Mr. Medulla announced. The students began to groan. It was the second week of school and it was their first project of the year. Most people were hoping to get to at least the next week before anything too hard. Sun shone in through the Mad Science lab windows, proving that it was still late summer outside. Students were still wearing light weight or summer clothing. "You and your lab partner will research powers in your family and make a tree of this. You will find the origin of your family's powers. This project will become crucial in the coming weeks. Begin!" Mr. Medulla went behind his desk.

Warren and Evangeline pulled out pens and paper, both beginning to write a title on their planning pages. "I'm a pyro," Warren stated, writing it down under his name on his sheet. "My mother is a peace maker, and my father is a pyro." He stopped writing, looking at Evangeline. She'd already written names on the paper.

"I'm empathic and telekinetic…" Evangeline scribbled it below her name. "My brother Emmett is Omni-lingual and telepathic…my other brother Edward is a mind controller and has precognitive powers…my mother is a memory manipulator…and my father is psychometric."

"Psychometric?" Warren inquired, his eyebrows furrowing.

Evangeline sat down her pen and looked up at him. "He can see past, present, or future by coming in contact with something."

Warren nodded. "Wow…lots of mental powers."

"Yeah, it's sort of a family thing," Evangeline replied, a little embarrassed, pushing some hair behind her ear.

"Maybe we should work on this over the weekend," Warren looked at his paper. "I have no idea about the rest of my family."

"Me neither," Evangeline admitted, pushing her pen away.

"So, where should we work on this?" Warren sat his pen down and leaned forward.

Evangeline shrugged. "Wherever's fine. I have something at ten."

"Well, how about my house at one?" Warren asked.

Evangeline blinked for a moment. "Sure." Warren wrote his address on a piece of paper and handed it to Evangeline. The two smiled at each other for a moment.

"Mr. Peace, Ms. Emerson, please save the flirtatious attitude for when you're working on your project over the weekend," Mr. Medulla groaned as he walked around the classroom. Evangeline glanced down at her notebook, embarrassed. Warren looked the other way. Will and Layla glanced over, but returned to their project. The two looked up at each other and laughed for a moment. Mr. Medulla took no crap when it came to 'romance' or 'flirtatious attitude' in the least. Any couple in the same Mad Science class had to be on their guard for his ever watchful eye, but things like this…they were simply strange. The bell rang and the classroom quickly emptied. Each grabbed their bags and stood up.

"Tomorrow at one," Evangeline smiled.

Warren laughed. "See you then." He watched as Evangeline headed out of the classroom.

Edward smiled at Evangeline and gave her a small hug. Warren came out and watched for a moment inconspicuously. They looked barely similar, but most of the kids in the school did. Warren wasn't quite sure what to think of the sight. "Well, what are we going to do this weekend?"

"I don't know," Evangeline shrugged as they went down the hallway. "I have to work with my lab partner on a project."

"Ah, I see," Edward commented. "Well, have fun with that."

"Yes, a project for Medulla. As fun as it gets," Evangeline told him sarcastically.

The doorbell rang loudly throughout the house. Warren opened the door, smiling at Evangeline. "Hey, come on in." Warren held the door back as Evangeline came in, carrying a poster board and bag. She smiled at him. "So, should we get to work on that project?" Warren asked as he shut the door.

"We probably should," Evangeline agreed, sighing. Warren led her into the family room. They spread out the poster board and pens, their notes scattered amongst them. Warren and Evangeline began to fill the poster board with names and powers, building two massive trees. Each finished writing the last name on their trees and capped their pens. "It looks good," Evangeline commented, sitting her pen on the floor.

Warren nodded, looking at the poster. "It does." Neither looked at each other for a moment that was spent in silence. "So, that's your boyfriend?"

Evangeline looked up at him. "What?" her eyes were wide and her tone confused.

"The tall one with the brown hair," Warren elaborated.

"Edward?" she was still confused.

"Yeah, sure, let's go with that."

Evangeline laughed. "Edward's my brother."

Warren watched her for a moment and also began to laugh. "I'm sorry," his laughter slowed. "I thought that because…"

"Because he hugged me he must be a romantic interest?" Evangeline was still giggling a little. "No. He's just one of those protective, kind brothers. Much better than Emmett."

"Your older brother?" Warren inquired to make sure.

"Yeah…Emmett can be a little overbearing instead of protective."

"I see. And your parents?" he was curious. Plus – what else did they have to do that afternoon? Go overboard on the project for Medulla and be labeled overachievers? Uh – no, not them.

"They don't live with us anymore." Evangeline seemed rather calm about the fact. "When I was in fifth grade, they were offered a job and the International Superhero Relations Department in New York. Emmett was a freshman and Edward was a seventh grader. Our grandmother came and lived with us for that year. The next year, Emmett could drive and Grandma couldn't take Emmett's perfectionism anymore. After Emmett graduated two years ago, he goes back and forth between New York and here, working with my parents. He'd like to think that Edward and I can't handle ourselves alone, but he still leaves us alone for majority of a week."

"That must be interesting," Warren commented, putting his pen on the coffee table.

"It is. But what about you? Do you live here alone or what?" Evangeline teased, flashing him a quick smile.

"My mom and I have lived here since I was born," Warren smiled.

Evangeline nodded, brushing some of her hair back. "And your father?"

Warren took a breath. "He's been in solitary since two months before I was born."

"Oh…" It suddenly clicked in Evangeline's brain what his name meant family wise and the names written on his half of the board. She felt guilty and stupid. "I'm so sorry," Evangeline quickly backtracked. "Sometimes I don't think before I talk, and it's sort of like word vomit, and it just comes out and…" she took a breath and began to laugh. "…and now I'm rambling."

Warren laughed a little. "Nah, its fine. However, it is nice to know that my lab partner doesn't care who my family is." He smiled and they broke down laughing again at her ramblings. "What was that phrase? 'Word vomit'?"

Evangeline giggled. "It's when you just don't think and…words come out. Word vomit." She smiled in an embarrassed fashion.

"I'll have to remember that one," Warren smiled warmly.

So, please review! I'll get to work on that new chapter right away.
