A friend…

Richelle walked into the chemistry room. The students were all standing by the walls. She wondered what was going on.

The bell rang and the teacher got out of her seat saying, "You must be the new student, Richelle Ninovan. I am Ms. Candace. We are switching seats today.

She called out names and pointed at a seat. The chemistry tables each had two seats. That meant one thing, lab partners.

"Isabella Swan," She called. The girl that she noticed from earlier sat down in a seat. "Richelle Ninovan,"

Richelle's lab partner was Isabella

"Bella," She corrected as Richelle sat down.

"Bel-la" Richelle echoed slowly.

"That's right." Bella seemed unsure what to say about it.

"Alright class, I know you are going to be mad, but there's a pop quiz today." There were groans. "But after that, you may have a study hall." Ms. Candace passed out the quizzes.

When she didn't place a quiz in front of Richelle, she asked, "May I take ze quiz?" she didn't want to be left out. She also wanted to see what they were learning in American chemistry. Ms. Candace looked at her and hesitated before placing one before her.

The quiz was super easy. All she had to do was find the polarity of the different compounds. If this was what they were learning, they were behind France by a lot in Sciences. After a few minutes, Ms. Candace collected the papers.

"Tomorrow we're doing a lab on chemical reactions. Make sure that if you have long hair that you have it tied up. You'll be sorry if you don't," were her final words before she let them talk quietly.

The bell rang and Bella was the first one out the door. Richelle slowly got up and went to her next class.

There was no one unusual in that class. One of the boys in the class turned to her and asked, "I heard you are really good in your math class."

"Yes," she answered.

"What do you do back in France?"

"Ze math you ar learning now iz like what ze younger grades…how you zay… elementary sudentz learn."

"You have a sweet accent," He commented. His voice seemed a little peppy…

"Uh…Zank you?" She didn't know how to respond to that. As far as she was concerned, he was the one with the accent.

"I'm Jason. Jason Mick," He was leaning over the isle.

"I'm Richelle."

"That's a cool name. One of my friends said that you're lab partners with Bella Swan. One of my friend's great grandfather knew her great aunt when he was young." He looked like he was about to fall, but he just barely caught himself and landed on the floor.

"Are you all right?"

"Fine," he croaked getting back up.

"Mr. Mick, please restrain yourself," Mr. Borth, her Art teacher, called.

"Anyway, apparently, she disappeared."

The only thing that Richelle could think was, what is he talking to me?

When the final bell rang, she went immediately to her locker. It was filled with all of her books from her classes. She made sure that everything was perfectly organized before she closed it and went to look for her brothers.

They were all by Arceneaux's locker in the senior hallway waiting for her. They were all talking about their days. When they saw her, all four of them went outside.

Richelle got started on her homework while waiting for their uncle to show up. Reynard did the same.

"So you two twins?" asked a voice. It was Jayson.

"No, I'm Lyle'z twin." Reynard answered.

"But you two look the same."

"We're nine monthz apart."

"You two are in the same grade…"

"Lyle and I were born in July."

"I guess that works…"

A car honked at them. Richelle and Reynard got their things.

"Are you sure you're not twins?"

"We are serious," Reynard called back as he got into the car behind Richelle.

A/N: I'm sorry it took so long to upload. Something happened in the family and I haven't been all happy about it. And I couldn't upload it yesterday because I was at a Jazz band competition. I hope I can get the next chapter in sometime this week, if not you're going to have to wait about two weeks because I'm going to be gone next week end.(Jazz band again)

Oh yeah, and if you're still wondering about everyone else's powers, you're going to have to wait until next chapter for Lyle and in later chapters for Rey-Rey and Arceneaux. Sorry
