"Okay Andi, can you make the grass grow?" Alfred Pennyworth asked me as we sat in the back yard of Wayne Manor.

"I can try." I closed my eyes, and pictured the grass we were sitting on growing up to three feet. And before I knew it, I couldn't see Alfred anymore. "I did it Alfie! I did it!" I screamed and jumped for joy. It was the first time I actually controlled something that I did with my powers.

"It's great Andi, now can you make it short again?"

"I can do this, I can do this." I prepped myself as I closed my eyes again and pictured the grass receding this time. I didn't really feel the grass grow before, but I actually felt the energy that it took to grow the extremely tall grass come back to me.

When I opened my eyes again, all I saw was Alfred smiling. "You did it. I'm so proud of you." I got up and ran to him, giving him a huge hug. "Come on, let's go to the greenhouse and try this out on the flowers." He picked me up and carried me to the greenhouse with the both of us laughing.

"Excuse me!" He turned around and saw my Social Worker crossing the lawn with a sad faced Bruce following her. "I'm sorry, but we've found a family and it's time to go."

"I want to adopt her." Alfred said with a hard voice as he put me down and I hid behind his legs.

"That's fine and dandy, but we've already found a family for her. Now it's time to leave," She held her hand out towards me. "You have to come with me Andrea."

I shook my head violently. "No."

She sighed. "Come on Andrea. I have other children to see today."

"No!" I clung to Alfie's leg. Why was it getting so stormy so quickly?

She reached over and grabbed my arm. "It's time to go!"

"NO!" I screamed. And all of a sudden there was a bright flash of lightning, a loud scream, a soft thump, and a gentle breeze. Then everything was silent.

I shot up from my bed as a crack of thunder followed a bolt of lightning. I sighed as I heard rain pound fervently against the mansion, I hope I don't get the weatherman fired again. "Come on rain, stop."

But it didn't. "Well I'm not getting back to sleep." I looked over at the clock on the nightstand. Four in the morning. It's later than usual so that's a plus. I groaned and got out of bed.

Logan sat up in his bed and sniffed the air. Something wasn't right. He threw his sheets off of the bed and headed downstairs. Why'd he smell breakfast?

"God damn it!" He heard and headed towards the kitchen. "That's the third batch!" He then heard a bang and saw me dumping something burnt into the trash can.

"What are you doing kid?"

"I'm trying to make some God damn eggs but they keep burning." I threw the skillet back onto the stove and grabbed three more from the carton on the counter. "I can make everything else, but I can't do eggs."

"Why are you up so early?"

I cracked all three eggs before I answered, "Couldn't sleep."

"So you naturally decided to make breakfast at five fifteen in the morning? Yeah, that makes perfect sense."

"Well it's better than sitting in my room doing nothing."

Logan sighed. Was Wade serious? Did he really have to look after this kid? "Just keep it down okay? There's people sleeping."

"Gabh mo leigseul. I was just a little mad." Logan stared at me.

"What was that?"

I looked up from the pan. "Sorry. I was speaking Gaelic. I do it sometimes, I don't mean to it just kind of happens."

"Is English not your first language?"

"No, it is. I just speak Gaelic fluently and it pops out every now and then."

"Whatever. Night, kid." He started to leave the kitchen.

"Morning actually." I could hear him sigh. I looked back at the pan and smiled. "Fourth time's the charm."

~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"Everyone," The Professor announced at breakfast about two hours later. "I would like you to meet the special guest that we have here today." He nodded at me and I stood up. "This is Andrea Hojem, and she'll be staying with us for a while."

"Hi," I said shyly and a few kids said, 'hi' back.

"She was actually nice enough to make us breakfast this morning."

"Thank you." They said monotonously.

"You're welcome." I sat back down and stared at my empty plate. I wasn't hungry.

"Are you not hungry?" The kid next to me asked. He was blue and had pointy ears like an elf. He looked so cool.

I shook my head. "No."

He held out a three fingered hand to me. "I'm Kurt Wagner." He had to be German; he pronounced his w's as v's.

I shook it without so much as reacting to his differences. "Andi Hojem."

"So what's your power?"

"Is that all anyone can ask around here?" I joked and he chuckled.

"It's just something nice to know."

"Well, I can control nature and the weather, I can heal, and I can teleport."

"I can teleport too!"

"That's so cool."

"I can't go too far though. I have to see where I'm going."

Now was the perfect opportunity to make friends. "If you want, I can help you with that."

"Really?"

"Yeah, sure, no problem."

"Thanks!"

"You're welcome." I smiled at him and he smiled back. "When do you want to do it?"

"How about this afternoon?"

"Okay, no problem. Do you want to meet me at the oak tree about one?"

"Sure."

"Are you sure it's a good idea to be making friends here? I'm mean you're not staying that long." J'onn appeared in my head and asked.

"It'll be fine." I thought back to him. "Don't worry so much."

"I can't not worry."

"It's so nice to know that you care."

"Don't flatter yourself."

"Ow J'onn, that one hurt."

"Just be careful."

"I'll try my best, but I can't make any promises."

"Andi-" J'onn warned.

"Well I can't."

"Try."

"I'll try."
