Chapter 2
3 years later.
The wind blasted in my face as the cold New York air came through, I covered my face with the boxes that I had carried. This was my fresh start, as my parents were relocated to New York to start their Arachnology company up again after my incident when I was 13 my parents couldn't cope with working and managing my new state. So my mother quit and my dad carried on, but now I was 16 able to fully control and take care of myself.
My parents company was to be called Sierra Lawson Arachnology, SLA for short. As I meant so much to them, being their only child and nearly ending up dead 3 years ago we had to get away after hiding me so long the press started to react. Posting articles of them abusing me all along social media and other related issues such as depression, i was also to attend a high school.
"Sierra! Put the boxes inside and come help us!" My dad shouted.
I huffed, and stared up to our new home we had moved from Kansas to New York. A plain 2 bedroom house to a 3 bedroom, 3 storeys high, townhouse on the uppear east side of New York, it was what you expected one of the top worlds scientists to live in. I knew it costed a shed load of money but it was all stored up in their savings to lead to this.
"Do i have to tell you again!" He shouted.
I laughed, and set the boxes down gently trying to not slam them. I pulled my chestnut brown hair up in to a pony tail and ran back to the van. The moving guys helped us out, everytime i went back for a new box to carry and they gave me the lightest.
After my incident with the spider i was given the powers of a spider, strength, speed, webs, hearing and climbing. The only people who knew of this was my parents and nobody else.
*****
When we finally took the remaining boxes inside i had yet to explore our new townhouse. The removal van had left, my mom walked beside me her glasses on top of her head and her mousey brown hair swishing in the wind. I was the only one out of my small family of me and my parents to no longer wear glasses,My vision was clear, yet i hid behind them, i carried in the last box of what was labelled Sierra's Books.
"New start Si" Mom told me "SLA will be up and running. Then me and your father can finish what we started"
By meaning 'finish what we started' was the 5 spiders. Aranea was never seen after the incident, the work with the 5 spiders to create a complete new spider was abandoned so they studied each one of them analysing them for the past 3 years.
"Don't forget I'm attending high school tomorrow" I pointed out.
She laughed "I would never forget, my little baby is growing up!"
I groaned "I grew up the day of the incident-"
"Please Sierra, don't start off with this again" She pleaded.
"But you know thats the truth! I grew in to something else!"
"Can we not talk about this now? Just go and unpack" She ordered."Which is my room then?" "Pick whatever you want, me and dad will start unpacking in the living room"
After that i stormed off inside, pushing my glasses on top of my head. I took a deep breath in and entered the townhouse by myself, i pushed the door open to firstly see a wide and long hallway with the white stairs on the left hand side. I ran up the stairs quickly hoping to find the bedroom, only to see the living room which was mighty.
The stairs were like a spiral case from them upwards, i ran up the second batch to finally be greeted by a door,i looked up again to see the other set of stairs. I smiled and ran up the final batch of stairs which in the future would lead to my own room. "These should be worth it" I told myself.
I looked to the stairs, grabbed hold of the banister, and looked forwards to see my room. I pushed the door open slowly, to see a large white room with 3 large windows vertically opposite me. Then i took a few steps in and smiled, twirling around, i looked upwards to see that the room had a high ceiling.
'Perfect' I thought 'Great for working on my web technqiue'
My parents didn't particulary like me using my special powers, they did'nt like me running faster then i did before or able to carry a couch all by myself. They hated that i made webs with my hands just like a spider, and they particulary hated the fact that i could climb walls.
But the room around me could isolate myself from them, able to practice all my tricks. A smile appeared on my face, something i seemed to lack according to my mom, i turned my head around to face the door and realised that i could be myself inside this very room.
"Sierra! Come get your boxes!" A voice said, interupting my thoughts.
"I'm coming!" I shouted.
"No, get your ass down here now!" My moms voice shouted.
"Language!"
"You say it to us!"
She did have a point.
*****
A couple of hours later, my room was nearly fully unpacked. I had rescrewed my king sized back together, without the help of my father, and moved it to the right place, a few feet from my windows and on the left hand side of my room. I had put my desk right by the middle window and was able to put back together my cupboards and closet.
It had taken a long process with finding the right place to put everything in the right place for my bedroom, trying to space everything out. When i moved the closet with my strength my mom shouted up to me, complaining of the noise. "Not my fault!" I shouted.
My mom would usually then end up coming halfway up the stairs debating with me or shouting at the top of her lungs from the first floor. "Stop that racket!" She shouted.
"I want everything to be precise!"
"Just get the most important things done, clothes and your school stuff then come help us with the table and couch!"
"Oh" I laughed "Now you want me for my strength! Love you too!"
My mom was then quiet, and so was i.
School.
