Chapter 11 – Zayn’s story and indoor Winter Wonderland

“My father is a telekinesis, which means that he can move things with his mind. My mother can speak with animals and my eldest sister can change shapes in every animal imaginable. My younger sisters have the ability to read minds and the other has laser eyes,” Zayn started of telling us the powers his family possessed.

“When the power-genre runs in the family, like with mine, you get your power at the age of eight. Obliviously, that didn’t happen with me. My family thought I was normal, someone without powers,” he added.

“What did your parents do?” Harry asked wide-eyed, seemingly interested in the subject of superpowers.

Zayn blinked, “Nothing. They just led me continue my life. While my sisters went to special schools for other people with powers, I went to a normal school.” He replied.

A smirk grew on his face, “But compared to normal people, I did grew up hearing the legends and myths about The Five. I knew about the intergalactic warriors who were destined to protect the universe from a complete destruction.” He said, casting a look at me and Niall.

“But I have to say, it didn’t crossed my mind that we are The Five, until Niall’s powers got unsealed that is,” Niall’s eyes widened at that and he gave Zayn a disbelieving look.

“You knew?” The blond questioned unsure.

Zayn nodded, “I grew up hearing tales about The Five, Niall. Surely I would recognize the five-pointed star on your wrist.” He told Niall with a growing smirk on his face. “I could tell you didn’t knew yourself and that you were scared about what happened to you, but I couldn’t help you.”

“Why not?” Liam asked with narrowed eyes, “We had no idea what was happening, why didn’t you helped us?”

“Because it’s against the rules,” Zayn said. I raised my eyebrows at that. Which rules?

“When the powers of The Five get unsealed they have to discover everything on their own, until The Circle finds them that is. If I would have told you everything it would have led to disaster.” Zayn told us with a sigh.

“What disaster?” I spoke up for the first time.

Zayn looked me straight in the eyes with his amber-coloured orbs, “If I would have told Niall he would have gotten insane and it would have been impossible for him to get control over his powers. In the worst case, demons would have found us and killed Niall.” I fell silent after that, knowing that Zayn is right, like always.

“Oh, and Louis?” Zayn spoke up after a few seconds of complete silent. I looked up, silently asking him to continue, “You can do more than just control water, you know?” He told me with and amused twinkle in his eyes.

I nodded, “I know. The Five have more than one power,” I said with a sigh.
