Author's Note!
I didn't know you guys actually really liked this! I'm so super giddy because in only a few hours I got 4 reviews! I just...can not thank you guys enough. -Thanks though, lostfeather1, Zimmer12, Dattebasa1, and PokemonNarutoLover.-
Oh! Also, this is just going to be a filler chapter so it'll mostly be Kayden learning her powers and experimenting. There won't be any canon characters in this chapter and it'll mostly just be Kayden testing things. Next chapter I'll start Episode 3.
'Mikania's thoughts/speaking.'
'Kayden's thoughts to Mikania.'
Kayden's thoughts to herself/other people's thoughts
"Speaking."
"Compelling someone."
DISCLAIMER: You know who The Vampire Diaries belongs to, and it isn't me.
Kayden's P.O.V.
As soon as I got into my "guest room of magic" I closed the door and called out to Mikania.
'Mikania?'
'Yes?'
'Do you know any other powers I have? Ones that I haven't tried out yet.'
'Well, I do believe that you can change your voice.'
'Uh, what do you mean by that?'
'Exactly what it sounds like, you can change your voice in pitch and accent.'
'That's so cool!'
I think for a moment and imagine my voice changing to Klaus's voice.
"Hello, love."
'Oh my god! That was so cool!'
'You seem to have gotten the hang of it quite easily.'
'Well, I used Klaus's voice. I know it quite well.'
'I wouldn't expect anything less.'
'Oh stop, you're making me blush! Is there anything else you know of, or can I just start guessing?'
'I don't know of any other powers we started you out with, you can start guessing now.'
'Okay, sweet.'
I changed my voice back to my base one and materialized a pen and paper to start my list of what I can do.
Powers:
-Shields- On self and others
-Change appearance
-Change name/age
-Change species
-Materialize objects and clothing
-Change the Universe around self- create houses and things
-Internal 'Universe Clock' which can change the time
-Change voice/accent
-'Hop' Universes
I put the paper down on a table and started pacing, rubbing my hands in front of myself.
'Right, so Mikania, any ideas?'
'I don't know darling, those are the only powers we've gifted you with. As I said before, your powers will evolve to suit your needs.'
'Oh man, that means I have to think about this, huh?'
'Yes, I believe it does.'
I felt a pout form on my face as I looked up at the ceiling. I looked around the room for a few minutes, thinking about what I should try. Maybe teleportation?
I looked over to the other side of the room and imagined a mattress on the wall, just in case I miss. After seeing the mattress appear, I closed my eyes and felt around for my Universe power.
I could feel it in my center, it was warm yet cold. Focusing on it, I though of the other side of the room where I put the mattress and lightly pushed the power to teleport myself towards the wall.
I felt a pulling sensation, much softer than when I first came to this Universe, and opened my eyes slowly. In front of my eyes was the mattress I attached to the wall.
'Holy crap!'
'...You...'
'I freaking teleported!'
A sort of stunned silence came from Mikania.
I giddily grinned and teleported back to the list on the other side of the room.
-Teleportation
I looked up from where I was writing my newest discovery on my list when I hear a noise come from my front porch.
I speed out of the room and towards the front door as I hear a young boy muttering to himself.
"Who even lives here?" He muttered.
I lightly pull open the door as he reaches up to knock.
"Hi!" I grin at his stunned face.
"H-hi." He stutters back.
I look around my porch behind him, "So, what're you doing here?"
"Oh! I, uh, we got your mail at my house." He says, holding out an envelope.
"Hm, really?" I reach out and grab the envelope, turning it over to read the address. Who's sending me mail?
The front of the envelope is addressed to me with no return address.
I look up and see the boy must have said something to me as he is looking at me nervously.
"I'm sorry, what did you say?" I ask, shoving the letter into my back pocket.
"Oh, I asked if you were new to town." He said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Yeah, I moved in a few days ago actually."
"Well, it was nice to meet you. My name is Jace St-"
I cut him off, not in the mood to have more people know me.
"Go home and never think about me again. You left the letter on the doorstep when nobody answered the door."
"I left the letter on the doorstep when nobody was home. I'll never think of you again." The boy replied monotonously, turning around and walking away from my house.
That was troublesome. Now I've wasted time that I could've used to practice.
'Darling, I do believe that it is almost 10 p.m.'
'Ah, yeah it is.'
'You should return to the guest room and perhaps practice your powers when you are surrounded by humans.'
'Huh? Why?'
'If you are to be surrounded by the supernatural at all times, your powers may have evolved to help you when you are near them.'
'Wait. Like, hearing thoughts and that kind of thing?'
'Maybe. I think you should go to sleep tonight, though you may be a vampire now you do need rest sometimes as The Universe Hopper.'
'Right,' I yawned, closing the front door and dancing into my bedroom. 'Maybe I'll dream something useful.'
'I will speak to you when you awake. Goodnight mia figlia.'
'Buonanotte mia madre.'
Wait. Was that...Italian? I don't know Italian!
I sit down on my bed, close my eyes, and picture the list in my mind. Underneath the list, I imagine a black hole that leads to my bedroom. I imagine the list floating down the black hole and re-appearing on my lap.
I open my eyes and on my lap is the list.
Woah, so I can do that too. Whatever that was.
I grab a pen from my bedside table and add my new discoveries to the list.
-Understands and can speak language(s) that were otherwise unknown
-Can teleport objects (people?) via black hole
I place the paper and the pen back onto the bedside table and flop down onto my bed.
I change my clothes into black sleep shorts and a red tank top. Looking inwards at my Universe Clock, I set an alarm for 7 a.m. so that I can wake up early tomorrow morning.
I close my eyes and roll onto my stomach, shoving my face into my pillows.
-Dream-
All around me are strings of different colors. I spin around in a circle and look everywhere at the many strings, never touching one despite how many there are.
The strings glow is the only light in the dark place that I am standing in. I reach out for a green string and am pulled forwards quickly by the string.
When the string stops pulling me, I am in a different landscape. This one is instead a meadow. There are trees surrounding me and I can hear a waterfall somewhere off in the distance.
A family of four is in front of me sitting on a picnic blanket. There is a mother, a father, a younger brother, and an older sister.
The mother has dark brown hair that is flowing down her back in waves. The father has shorter brown hair and brown eyes. The two children are running in front of the parents and laughing.
The older sister looks like a younger Elena and the brother like a younger Jeremy. The two siblings are smiling at each other with childish innocence.
I hear a quiet sob next to me and look over to see a 17 year old Elena kneeling next to me looking over at the family with tears in her eyes.
Where am I?
I reach down towards Elena to tap her shoulder, but my hand just passes through her.
Okay, that was weird.
"Elena?" I call out, kneeling next to her.
She doesn't respond or look at me as tears continue to flow down her face.
"Can you not hear me?" What a stupid question. I facepalm, looking back towards the family, the Gilberts.
"Elena, Jeremy, come eat!" The mother, Miranda, calls out.
"Okay mom!" Young Elena grins over to her mother, grabbing younger Jeremy's hands and pulling him towards the blanket.
I look over to Elena to see that she is smiling slightly through her tears.
How did I get here?
I rise to my feet and look around, spotting the green string towards the tree line. I jog over towards it and lightly grab it. The scenery disappears as the string once again pulls me away.
When I stop this time, I am back in the room of strings. Only this time, I can sense which string belongs to who.
My inner alarm goes off and my eyes snap open to look up at my ceiling.
That was...odd.
I push myself up and rub my eyes, yawning. I fling my legs over the edge of my bed and tumble down to the ground.
"Ouch." I moan, sitting up and rubbing my head.
I stand up and walk out of my bedroom door and into the bathroom. I turn on the shower and wait until there is steam coming from the water before blinking my clothes away and stepping in.
The hot water soothes my muscles as I crack my back and my neck. I blink some vanilla shampoo into existence along with vanilla conditioner. I reach out and squirt some shampoo into my hand then massage it into my scalp. I rinse the shampoo out and repeat the process with the conditioner.
I imagine some face wash with charcoal in it and some lavender scented body wash. I clean my face and then use the body wash. After I rinse all of the soap off of my body, I turn off the shower and open the curtains.
A white, fluffy towel appears around my body and a red towel appears in my hand. I flip my head over and rub my hair with the red towel, then I flip my hair back behind me and the red towel disappears.
On the counter, a black blow dryer materializes, already plugged into the wall. I blow dry my blue hair and brush it out when it's dry. I brush my teeth and gargle some mouthwash before drying my body with the white towel.
Once I'm dry, the white towel disappears and in its place are a pair of white shorts, a black Nirvana tee-shirt and some black Keds on my feet.
I walk out of the bathroom and down the stair to the kitchen where I make some warm O Positive blood and hop onto the counter to have my breakfast.
'Mikania.'
'Kayden.'
'Did you see the dream?'
'Yes, I did. I do believe you can dream walk.'
'I can what now?'
'Dream Walk. You were in the Gilbert girl's dream last night.'
'Oh. Is that what those strings were? Dreams?'
'I did not see the strings, but I am assuming that is what they are.'
'Hm. Well, I guess it's time for school huh?'
'Yes indeed. Buona giornata piccolo.'
'Thanks!'
I push off of the counter and walk over to the door in the living room, grabbing my backpack along the way.
Finally! A new chapter! Sorry for the wait. Leave me a review and I will be a very happy authoress.
