"Yeah we need you to help us get something called the Bahgdad Battery," Eve told the boy who was about 10 to 11 years old.
"Can't you ask dad or something?" William turned to his sister who had a sad look on her face.
"You know how he is, Will," She sighed. William frowned while leaning against the door frame as if he were thinking things over. Whats wrong with Stone? she wondered but she knew better than to ask. "And plus you're the only who is actually good at math."
"Fine," he sighed finally. "What do you need me to do?" Both of the girls smiled.
"Hey William can you get this book down for me? I can't reach it," Promise called over from one of the book cases. She tried jumping but it was no use. Eve laughed under her breath and began to get up to help but William stopped her.
"I got this," He said. William put his hand up towards the book that Promise had been trying to get. Then slowly the book began to move a little bit on its own. What the-? Before she could finish her thought, a bunch of books came of the shelves, floating in midair. Eve's mouth was agape.
"Choose your book," he told the girl. Thats when she realised that William was controling the books. Promise jumped up and grabbed a few books before they all dropped to the floor with a loud thud.
"You really need to get better at actually holding them in the air," Promise told him.
"I'm trying, but its hard to control," he shrugged. Eve was staring at him dumbfounded.
"W-what? How did you-"
"He has telekinesis," Promise cut her off. Telekinesis? The kids have powers in the future?
"Since I was the first child to ever be concieved by two librarians, the library gifted me with it," William explained. His sister glared at him for telling her that then Promise handed her a book on the bahgdad battery. They spent the next few hours studing the artifact and figuring out how they would get Eve back to her own timeline.
This one is so short that its not even okay :( But I'm super stuck and its all that I could come up with and yes I intended on giving William his power. Let me know if you have any ideas for the story.
