Hard to say the truth

My weakness can't hide

Ray's pov:
I can't believe what just happened.Your probably wondering what happened and i'll tell you.The man cave broke down and caught on fire in the middle of the night.How do i brake the news to Henry,Charlotte,Jasper,Piper,CHAPA like how does my morning get worse.
-1 hour later-
I already had called Henry,Charlotte,Jasper,and Piper but now I'm scared to tell Chapa.You know what i just won't tell her she will find out on the news later.Good thing Schwoz built Swag/The Mans Nest because if he didn't then i would be homeless.Anyray i was walking towards Swag when i hear something in an alleyway.i look in the alley and i see a 15 year old girl so i decided to approach her.
Ray:hey little girl are you homeless
Then when she looked at me i saw her face,Chapa's face.
Chapa:Ray?
Ray:Chapa what are you doing here
Chapa:i live here what are you doing here
Ray:well i have to go somewhere then i saw you in this alleyway
Chapa:oh well i was just about to go to work
Ray:about that the man cave got burnt down to ashes last night
Chapa:WHAT
Ray:yea but i have a solution Just come with me
Chapa:ok?
She gets up and starts walking with me all the way to Swag.For the whole walk there nothing was said which kinda made me sad because i look at her as someone i can trust.
Ray:so if i may ask why were you sleeping in an alleyway
Chapa:oh um well promise me you won't tell anyone
Ray:promise
Chapa:welp my parents died in a car crash coming home from work one day
Ray:I'm sorry but cheer up kiddo because we are here
Chapa:what is a Swag?
Ray:its a school,Swellview Academy for the Gifted but Swag for short
Chapa:well can i go inside
Ray:uhh i don't think you wanna do tha-
I then hear the doors open and all the kids voices including Schwoz talking.They all turn around to face Chapa and me.
Bose:Chapa?since when do you go here
Chapa:i don't
Mika:then why are you here
Chapa:Ray wanted to show me this place but i didn't think you guys would be here
Bose:don't you have work at that store Junk'n Stuff
Chapa:well i do but-
Mika:guys news alert
Bose:Chapa wasn't done talking
Mika:blah blah blah news
-BREAKING NEWS 🚨-
Trent:breaking news a store called Junk'n Stuff burnt down in a mysterious fire we are now checking to see if anyone was in there.
Mary:in other news we have no other news

Ray:do you Chapa dasilva take my offer to become Volt
Chapa:yes but who's Volt
Ray:ok everyone take your chairs upstairs and Chapa you come with me and Schwoz
Chapa:ok?
We then walk into the closet and to the tubes.
Ray:up the tube
We then shoot up into the Mans Nest and thats when Chapa exploded
Chapa:WAIT I DIDN'T KNOW DANGER FORCE WAS HERE
Mika:that was the whole point
Ray:Mika stop being rude to the newest member of the team
Chapa:wait your kidding right
Ray:nope and Schwoz already made your super suit
Chapa:ooh let me see
Schwoz:here you go
Chapa:what do i do with this
Ray:chew and blow a bubble
Chapa:ok
We all see a blue light appear over her and in a second she is transformed into Volt
Chapa:i love this
Bose:Red is so your color
Chapa:thanks
Bose:no problem
Mika:woah woah woah hold the chiz and rewind it back she doesn't even have a super power
Chapa:oh i don't have a superpower well dear Mika i can zap your eye out in a second
Mika:i'd like to see you try
Chapa:thats it
She then try's to go at Mika but me and Bose held her back from actually gouging her eye out.After she calms down we all see her spark for a couple minutes but then she just goes over to the couch and starts to tear up.Bose goes over to her and comforts her
Bose:Chaps whats wrong
Chapa:i don't...deserve to be a superhero after what happened
Bose:what are you talking about
Chapa:well My parents were the best superhero's when i was little but then they were driving and got into a car crash....and died
Bose:awww why didn't you tell me
Chapa:because i didn't wanna be called weak
Bose:Chapa you are not weak sometimes people need to let out their emotions
Chapa:i know thanks Bosey
Bose's pov:
Chapa:i know thanks Bosey
After that we hug and i rub her back while she rests her chin on my shoulder
Ray:so what do you say wanna join
Chapa:should i?
Bose:hell yea you should we would get to see each other more
Chapa:ok then get ready for lightning whenever I'm angry
Schwoz:we already are ready
Chapa:well since it's Saturday normally i make a fire in a trash can so byeee
Ray:bye i guess?
Chapa's pov:
I walk to the tube and go back down to the classroom,walk out the door,and go towards the alleyway i sleep in.As i was going in the alley i see a man that seems familiar to me but i just brush it off and make the fire.
Chapa:finally some warmth
Man:um excuse me but do you have any alcohol by any chance
Chapa:um I'm only 15 but yea what type
Man:beer but if you don't then its fine
Chapa:oh well sorry but all i have is rum
Man:wait you said you were 15 right
Chapa:yea
Man:well what are you doing with rum
Chapa:its to keep my fire going for longer
Man:ok have a nice day girl
Chapa:you too
The man starts walking but i felt something was off about him so i run over to him
Chapa:wait you must be cold do you wanna sit in front of my fire
Man:no sweetie its fine i have my own fire going but i do need to go to my bench you wanna go with me
Chapa:sure
So we start walking.I know I shouldn't trust him but i have a gut feeling like i know this man.
Man:we're here
Chapa:what do you do at this bench
Man:oh well i play the harmonica normally i would have this little girl dance with me but she left me
After he said that i remembered everything from when i was 10 years old
Chapa:well i can dance for you
Man:really you would do that for me
Chapa:yea now start playing
He then puts his hat out and starts playing music so i just start tapping my foot.We dance and play music for a while now and got a huge crowd in front of us at the moment so we don't stop....a couple minutes later we wracked up a good 20 bucks so we keep playing and dancing
1 hour later:
We have been doing this for over an hour now and we also wracked up 100 bucks but we were both getting tired so we both nodded and finished it.The crowd was clapping and cheering for us but that was when a man approached me while i was drinking water
Man:you have great talent Chapa and you too
I then looked up and spit out my water
Chapa:Ray what are you doing here
Ray:well i was strolling along the sidewalk  but i heard music so i came to watch
Chapa:oh well in that case thanks
Ray:no problem can you walk with me again
Chapa:sure
I then turn back and say to the man
Chapa:i'll help you gain more money when you need it just you know where to find me
Man:have a nice day
Chapa:you too
Ray:ok so now that Junk'n Stuff burnt down and you have no money Schwoz and i have been looking for jobs that hire at 14.
Chapa:what did you find
Ray:well they were all jobs at dumps or at construction jobs except for one
Chapa:and?
Ray:its a waitress job at a place called Margaritas
Chapa:ooh that new Mexican place that just opened
Ray:yea so we were thinking that since you don't have money then you can apply
Chapa:sure i mean why not plus i need the money to take care of myself so i'll apply
Ray:great well interviews are tomorrow at 3:00pm so i would get some rest plus when are you gonna tell Bose

Bose:Ok Chapa,Ray tell us whats got you guys so happy
Chapa:oh its nothing
I said with a bubbly smile

Ray:ok so its just out this door and down the hallway second to last door on your right here let me walk you down there

We walk down the hall then reach the study where he takes a key out of his pocket then unlocks the door.
Chapa:so all i have to make sure of is that i don't blow this study up
