"RRRIIINNNGGG!" Kimberly groaned clamping her pillow over her ears the sound of her alarm clock was deafening although she tried to block out the sound, the alarm kept mercilessly ringing in her brain like the alarm was stuck in her head, finally tired of the noise she rolled over to hit the snooze button accidentally smashing her alarm clock in the process, she groaned and sat up, "well today's off to a crappy start she muttered".
Haylee let go of the pull up bar, landing on her feet, she swept her dark curly hair into a messy bun, "dad I'm gonna hit the showers" she called out to her dad "okay, honey" her dad replied, as she made her way to the bathroom. She twisted the knob relishing the feel of cold water on her hot and sore muscles, she was washing her hair when she noticed the water turn from cold to hot then go up in steam, she frowned, as she brought her hand to her face, 'crap I'm on fire' she muttered as she flapped her arms desperately trying to stop the flames, she turned the knob so that the water was pouring down on her but as soon as it touched her skin it turned to steam, "Haylee are you okay in there?" Daisy asked "totally fine!" Haylee replied as she wiggled around in the shower 'stop! Stop! Stop! Damn flames!' she muttered as at last the flames stopped.
"Jake! Jake! Jake!" A familiar voice yelled, Jake frowned her could feel tiny water drops hitting his noise and all of a sudden thunder boomed around him he sat up, rain drops had soaked his bed and sheet, thunder boomed through the house even though it was clear outside, "Jake! What the hell is going on?!" His father asked swaying on his feet, a beer bottle in hand, "nothing" Jake hissed as the rain continued to fall, he locked himself  in the bathroom, closing his eyes he focused on the sun and warm sun rays then the rain slowly calmed disappeared only to be replaced with scorching hot sun rays, "crap too hot" he muttered as he focused again and finally the house returned to normal.
Will was up as usual before his parents and as usual he was tired, so he padded downstairs for some milk. He sighed as he opened the fridge immediately his hand made contact with the metal, lightning surged through his fingertips, and unfortunately for him metal is an excellent conductor, his powers flowed from his fingers to the fridge, the fridge was sparking and a few wires burnt, as Will tried to pry his hand off the fridge, he willed his powers to stop as more wires began to spark, finally after much pulling he managed to pry his fingers off the fridge the fridge however was now no longer relevant.
Ava woke up to her alarm as usual, she took a shower dried herself off and slipped into her school uniform, she padded into the kitchen grabbed her bowl, immediately she touched it, it flattened turning into a lopsided plate, she sighed and grabbed another plate, same thing happened, she have up and went to fridge to grab a cereal bar, when her hand touched the metal it bent scrunching up like a piece of paper, she groaned in frustration as she desperately tried to fix the fridge, "Ava honey is everything alright?" Her mom called from her room as Ava desperately tried to fix the fridge "yep, everything is fine and dandy" she replied punching the fridge in frustration and it changed to it's original shape she sighed in relief.
Cam groaned he could hear Polly stomping upstairs to wake him up, he threw the covers off himself and made his way to the bathroom he ran his fingers through his thick strawberry blonde hair and reached out for his toothbrush, he squeezed a glob of toothpaste on his toothbrush, he looked at himself in the mirror as he brushed until he couldn't see himself in the mirror or the mirror he looked down, he was floating, "crap! Crap! Crap!" He muttered scrambling in the air as he tried to grab onto something "Cam are you okay?!" Polly asked "yeah, I'm fine" Cal replied "you don't sound fine, I'm coming up" she said, "c'mon stop floating" he said to himself unfortunately that didn't work in fact his sink started to float and did the shower curtains and his mirror, "no, no,no" he muttered "I'm coming in" said Polly as the door handle rattled "no! Do not come in" said Cam "you said everything was fine" said Polly sounding confused "it is" Cam lied "whatever, I'm coming in" she said as she flung the door open, "why are you on the floor?" She asked "um, enjoying the view" he replied as Polly shook her head.
Cal was eating breakfast with his dad, they were chatting about the movie they watched last night, when his phone rang "sorry son I've got to get down to the office" he said as he dropped his dishes the sink, padding to the door he grabbed his coat, "have a great day!" Cal called as his dad left. Cal sighed as he grabbed his cup to take a sip of orange juice he was raising the cup to his mouth when it shattered in his grip, he closed his eyes hoping the shards hadn't cut his skin, he opened his eyes and winced in pain some of the glass shards were embedded in his palm he grabbed the first aid kit and set to work picking out the shards and dressing the wounds.
Irena slammed the door of her sleek mercedes instructing the driver to pick her up by exactly three fifteen and drop her off at Mr. Ronsith's library. She walked down the hallways, opening her locker she grabbed the small vail filled with a crystal clear substance that Mr. Ronsith said should help control their powers she headed to the toilet and entering one of the bathroom stalls she opened the vail and brought it to her lips as instructed she was to take just one sip and save the rest for the showdown at the morgue later that day, she gulped down the terrible tasting liquid gagging at it's taste, she gasped as she gripped the toilet seat, cold water dripped down her nose turning to ice as it fell, she groaned in agony as ice surged through her veins,  she gasped again and her body returned to normal she sighed and got up dusting herself she cleaned up her face and left the toilet.
"Are sure this will work?" Adriàn asked Reese they were currently in the boys bathroom staring at the vail in their hands "only one way to find out" said Reese as he took a sip, he gagged "damn, it's nasty" he gagged as rushed to the toilet, Adriàn cringed before taking a sip of the liquid wincing at the taste, he gasped as fire cursed through his veins, his eyes flashed bronze and all he could see was red before he returned back to normal, "Reese are you okay?" He asked when Reese still hadn't come out of the bathroom after five minutes. No reply. "Reese?" Adriàn called as he burst into Reese's stall, he was hunched over the toilet dark goo dribbling down his nose, his face was pale and his eyes looked dazed "crap, crap, crap" Adriàn muttered as he dialed Mr. Ronsith "hello Adriàn what's wrong?" He asked "it's Reese I don't think your potion is working he looks dazed and some black goo I coming out of his nose, he looks really sick" said Adriàn "death boy must be unlocking some of his powers" said Elenore "just bring him over" said Mr
Ronsith as he cut the call, Adriàn grabbed Reese from under his arm, "for a skinny guy you sure are heavy" he muttered as he stumbled out of the toilet.
Hina hoped the potion worked cause it was horrible, she winced at the memory of the taste as her history teacher handed them their sheets from last week's test, Hina gaped at her grade a C- surely this was a lie, okay it really wasn't but come on she was a japanese girl living in America of course she would suck in American history not that she didn't suck in Japanese history, she groaned flopping face first on her desk as she turned to look at the sky the sun was at it's peak illuminating the school in it's glorious golden beam, oh how Hina wished she could dance in the sun instead of learning boring old American history, it was only when her seat mate screamed did she pay attention to her class, "crap" she muttered, her seatmate's table was glowing with golden light, in fact the tables all around her were bathed in golden light plus they were on fire, by now the entire class was screaming and running around like headless chickens, Hina took this as an opportunity to slip out unoticed she ran down the halls past the entrance doors and down the street to Mr. Ronsith's library.
Freddie was calm, well as calm as a suoer-fast-ADHD patient can be he which was not calm at all, even though he had taken Mr.Ronsith's potion which kept his powers in check and not his ADHD he was still restless and jumpy, he tapped his pencil on his table hoping the class would end quickly cause he had, geography with Sage next and he could chat with her and not his grumpy seatmate, at long last the class   ended.  Freddie grabbed his books from his locker and raced to his geography class as usual he sat beside Sage, "Sage, Sage did you drink the potion?" He asked as Sage scribbled down some notes "yeah, it was awful" she said "totally, I wish Mr. Ronsith could have added some sugar or something" he said "probably because he knows of you drink sugar you'll run round the entire town" said Sage, "not true" he pouted, "sure" said Sage, as she went back to taking notes "anyways do you think the witches would steal the bodies in broad daylight or when we're fast asleep, that is if we even go to sleep, hopefully we will be able to fight them anyways we have gym next and I think I forgot my shoes can I..." Freddie stoped when he realized that Sage hadn't replied or butted in, he poked her with his pencil "Sage" he said. No reply. "Sage?" he called again, as he turned to face her, he gasped, she was staring into face black goo dribbling down her nose, her skin was  pale and covered in a layer of sweat, 'crap, crap, crap' he muttered as the bell rang for class over, he whipped out his phone and called Mr.Ronsith, "Mr. Ronsith, there's something wrong with Sage" he said, "bring her over" Mr. Ronsith replied as he cut the call, he carried Sage bridal style and raced out of the school in a blur.
"So what's wrong with them?" Kimberly asked once everyone was gathered, Sage and Reese were lying on stone beds covered in moss and oakwood leaves and ashes, "first off your friends Sage and Reese have the most mysterious powers, which means we can't tell the true limits of their powers, same goes for all of you theirs just happen to be more prominent, Sage and Reese's powers are sort of interwoven, Sage's powers originate from the three fates and the oracle, while Reese's originate from Hades the Lord of the underworld" said Elenore "can you get to the point" said Irena as Elenore glared at her "the point is, no matter what Reese and Sages powers are evolving hence their bodies are rejecting Cassius potion" said Elenore "is that a good or a bad thing?" Adriàn asked "their powers evolving is a good thing the bad thing is that there will be a strain on their mental health" said Elenore "and that means?" Jake asked, Elenore rolled her eyes and looked at Cassius "have you  told these children anything?" She asked, Cassius shook his head, as Elenore sighed "it means they won't be able to tell reality from what's going on in their heads" Elenore explained "so when will they be okay?" Will asked "tomorrow" Elenore replied "so they'll be like this all through today" said Freddie "yes" Elenore replied, "so what do we do now?" Haylee asked"prepare for war" Mr. Ronsith replied.
Reese could hear their screams, he could see them dying it was horrible when he was in he toilet. As he hunched over the toilet he could see her 'the girl leaned against the cold tiles of the toilet twirling her pocket knife as she closed her eyes and slashed her throat, blood poured out of her throat' he could hear her wail in misery, he could see and feel the dead gripping him, scratching him wailing in his ears, he tried to tune them out but they became louder, he could see them dying clearly their dying screams echoing through her head, "stop! Stop! Stop!" He yelled covering his ears with his hands trying to drown them out.
Sage couldn't see anything except from the blurry grey ceiling she knew she was in Mr. Ronsith's underground lair, as bright light danced before her eyes, she tried to focus as the images became clearer, she saw a huge dragon with shiny dark green scales that shone in the moonlight, the shanks on the scales of the dragon were filled with red liquid like lava, the dragon's eyes were like balls of swirling fire made up of red, orange and azure flames  with a single black stroke for a pupil, the dragon's head was crowned with horns and it's black leathery wings were spread in the air and it's clawed talons glistened, Sage blinked and the image faded, she found herself in a hellish landscape, a land filled with reddish soil, and glass like stones littered the ground, the sky was dark and her lungs burned with sulphur, she blinked again and she was in a graveyard, she could feel the aura of death hanging heavily in the air but it was tinged with something else, she looked around until she spotted a familiar figure seated a top a tombstone "Reese?" She called, he was seating cross-legged and hunched over, his curly black hair hanging over his face, "Reese?" Sage called out as she ran towards him, as she came closer she could see blood dripping down his hands, his ears, nose and the corners of  his mouth as the blood touched the black soil it bubbled as rotten hands tore through the earth, Sage screamed as a hand grabbed her ankle, she screamed as the undead staggered towards her, she screamed louder when Reese raised his head to reveal pitch black eyes with a single red slit pupil, he laughed maniacally as the undead dragged her down. She opened her eyes she could see a boy, probably about seventeen with platinum blonde hair that was bathed in golden light, his skin glowed with bright white light as did his eyes, beautiful golden white wings spread out behind him, bright light surrounded him he looked ethereal. She blinked and this time the world was a blurry mix of colors.
