The Meta Six

Chapter 15

pov: Justus

We all sat down on the seats and Marcel spoke up " so I guess if we're gonna be around each other we should get to know each other"

We all nodded our heads in agreeance " I can go first" the Hispanic-looking girl said. I hadn't yet memorized their names.

"Alright so my name is Arianna I'm 19, I love music, and dancing and my favorite color is purple," she said with a smile and we all nodded when she was done.

"I'll go next," the boy sitting across from me said "I'm Marcel, I'm 17 but I turn 18 in a few months ,  I love green, and I'm good at playing piano"

"Alright, I'll go" the girl sitting to the left of me said

"My name is Kiara, I love the color black, I'm 18 years old and I love boxing"

"I'll go next," I said sitting forward " I'm Justus. I love the color blue, I play basketball and I'm 19".

We all turned to Onyx waiting for her to go next.

"Uh I'm Onyx" she began staring down at her lap "Um I'm 19, I like the color orange" she paused as if trying to remember stuff about herself "yea um that's it". she looked up at us briefly then looked down.

I know there's more to her.

All of us sat In silence for a bit before we busted out laughing.

"This is insane," I said chuckling.

"Yea all this superhero stuff just came out of nowhere," Marcel said.

"Something is telling me we need to be doing this though. I feel like we could be doing so much good" Arianna added,

Kiara nodded " And I see how people treat Meta humans, it's not okay, I may not be one but I know by doing this we could change the stereotype"

The professor and Orion entered the room "I'm happy to see you guys are getting acquainted with one another" he said with a smile

He sat down on one of the armchairs "We start training tomorrow. I suggest you all get some rest because tomorrow will be a long day. And remember you are free to come and go as you please, you are all grown and don't need permission from me."

he stood up getting ready to walk away "If you need anything please do not hesitate to tell me or Orion here" they both walked away and left.

Onyx got up and walked away down a hall leading to the kitchen without saying a word.

"yea I'm tired so I'm just gonna go to sleep," Marcel said as he got up and walked upstairs.

"Goodnight guys," Arianna said going upstairs as well.

"Sleep well," Kiara said following her up.

I was sitting alone now. I leaned my head back , closed my eyes and just reflected on things that have been happening I'm about to do this.

I got up and walked to the kitchen needing some water.

Onyx was sitting on a stool at the kitchen island. She had a cup of juice in front of her.

"Hey, you okay," I said as I opened the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water, and walked over to where she was sitting.

"Yea I'm okay" she looked up at me then down into the cup in front of her

"your so quiet," I said taking a sip of my water. she shrugged.

"I guess I don't have a lot to say all the time," she said and took a sip of her juice.
