"Gary and my colleague Tony have both been reported missing, their family's are very worried about them, have you seen anything unusual anything at all?" the new probation worker, Sally asked, I concentrated on my hands just rubbing them together nonchalantly,
the silk felt great but I would rather be able to see my own hands for once "You saw something?" Sally asked, I snapped my head in Nathan's direction and hoped he wasn't ratting us out "A few days ago, I go into the toilets, Tony and Gary were in there, their both butt naked..." I rolled my eyes as he trailed off into a rather descriptive homosexual story about Tony and Gary
"...so I'm guessing they've both ran away to continue their ellicit homosexual affair and I ask you, in this world of intolerance and prejudice who are we to condemn them?" Nathan asked motioning to us, my eyebrows were raised in both shock and amusement, Sally said nothing but walked away with a pissed off look on her face.
I was sat on the roof lounging on one of the chairs we had up here while the others were stood by the ledge of the roof "Well I think we got away with it" Nathan suddenly said "Do you actually believe that or are you just really dumb?" Curtis asked "I actually believe that. I mean I was there I should have one of these bullshit powers" Nathan whined
"You can 'ave mine, you wanna know what people are finkin about you?" Kelly asked "Not so much, no I want something good, you know from the A-list, like Libby's power" he replied turning to me for a split second, I scoffed and stormed back inside.
I looked in the mirror and wiped a few sneaky tears away before sniffling, I didn't ask for any of this to happen, so why did it? I heard the door open and I jumped "Are you aright?" it was Kelly, she came into view and noticed my tears "Yeah I'm fine" I lied,
she shook her head "Nah you ain't, I can hear yah thoughts memba" she said recapping my memory, I chuckled "Yeah I forgot" I said, she smiled a little "When we killed the probation worker, you said three people in one week, what did you mean?"
she asked leaning agains't the locker next to me, I sighed and looked at her in the mirror "I found out about my power later on after the storm, I got home and found my boyfriend cheating on me with my sister..." I started, she had a look of disgust "That dick" she exclaimed, I chuckled and nodded "...That's what I said, but anyway I was about to hit her when she started shaking,
I didn't know what was going on, all I knew was that my hands were steaming, before I knew it a brigt light came out of all the holes on her body and she collapsed, her eyes were burnt out and when my boyfriend tried apolagizing I did the same to him before blowing up the house"
I admitted, she had a look of shock "Didn't the police find out?" she asked, I shook my head "No, I lit a fag and dropped it in their room, so it'll look like they fell asleep smoking" I said, she nodded "That's genius, an I'm really sorry, but just ignore Nathan he's a right prick"
she said, I nodded "Yeah I know" I replied, I turned around to face her "I can't touch anyone Kelly, well I don't know, I think it's just my hands but I'm not testing it" I said, she quickly put a hand to my forehead, I flinched but nothing happened
"It's just my hands" I gasped in relief "Yeah, Alisha has it worse, no one can touch 'er" Kelly said, I nodded in agreement "Yeah I guess" I said "You wanna come out for a drink or somefin?" she asked, I thought it over before nodding and walking out with her.
