Firegirl

Chapter 4

I stared at my aunt as she kept on arranging folders. Everyone was getting impatient.
    Next tomorrow is family day , she announced and everyone cheered , everyone except me . This was the last thing I wanted...for my mum to come and see this place. I didn't listen any longer cause I left. My mum would come here . My very annoying mum who would do anything to get rid of her very weird daughter . Just thinking about that made me miss my Dad . Dad was a scientist , a very hard-working one who cared for mum and I. Tears gathered in my eyes as I walked into my room . I took a nice long shower and cried . I missed my Dad . I never knew why he died but mum knew I was involved . When she was mad at me , she would tell me I killed dad which would make me sad . Though this theory was true , mum never knew but her hunch was correct . I walked out of my room and bumped into Becca .
                Hey Becca ! , I said.
       Hi Bailey , she said.
   Can I see the real dorm ? , I asked. She nodded and I followed her . She led me towards two enormous double doors and behind was the most amazing luxury bedroom ever.....bedrooms I think. Everyone had a corner with a beautiful bed with pink sheets and really soft thick blanket . On one of the beds , Kadee was lying down reading a book.
               OMG ! , I exclaimed as I stared round. The bathroom was so shiny and beautiful and stuff .
       Stop gawking and come sit , Becca said . I sat on one of the beds which was so amazingly soft .                        This corner was reserved for you , she said  and I nodded . No wonder it was totally different from the others . All red and fiery .
                   Who designed it ? , I asked . Kadee and Becca stared at me .
                   Your aunt , they said . Amazing choice of colors. I guess my aunt really knows me.
     Would it be wrong if I spent just one night here ? , I asked .
         No ! But come around 6 , that's when your aunt falls asleep , she said . I hugged her then went back to my room . After an extraordinary dinner , I returned to my room and changed into my silk red gown and bunny slippers . I packed my hair in a ponytail and left the room .
                  Becca ! , I whispered as I walked into the dorm . A lamp was switched on and Kadee got up . Becca was already asleep . I pulled of my slippers and lay on the bed . I covered myself with the blanket and slept off.
      I heard footsteps on the wooden floor and I shifted the blanket a little . Hovering over me was my aunt , she was visibly angry but fortunately she didn't notice that I was awake . I watched as she tapped Kadee . Kadee slowly opened her eyes and once she noticed it was my aunt , the sleep left her eyes .
          M...M...M....matron , she said flashing a smile .
        Don't smile at me . What is Bay doing here , she asked but Kadee didn't reply .
   No answer , you'll be punished , aunt Sandra said but Kadee kept mute . I removed the covers .
      It's my fault , I said loudly which woke the others up . Becca stared at me then Kadee to aunt Sandra . Aunt Sandra shook her head .
    You can't stay here , she said .
              Why ? , I asked .
          It's just not possible , she said . I didn't move I just sat there staring at my aunt who was obviously lying .
     Fine ! I don't want you to stay here with them because you can hurt them . Your memories are returning and they all involve you using your powers and in the real world you're actually using them which could hurt any of these girls and you could kill them . If I hadn't separated you from them , any of them could have died and you would be scared of yourself and this will put everyone in great danger . Now go to your room , she said angrily . I got up and apologised then I left . What she said had hurt me badly . Me knowing that I could kill friends was enough to make me scared of myself . But I refused to become afraid . I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling . Why did I have to live this life ? Do I have a purpose on earth ? I am the most powerful girl ever lived among the heroes....Why was I gifted with these powers ? It's not a gift it's a curse , my inner self said to me . I slept off around 12 after crying my heart out into a now wet pillow .
