The seventh wheel

Julie

As school ended I walked my way home. As I walk in the pavement. I saw a guy with a black jacket and an evil smile. Who the hell is he? I walked closely to him and let my right hand touch him, as I slowly let my right hand near him he almost bit my hand and flew away. Yes, he flies. How many more strange things are going to happen? Then some strangers saw me and walked away. It seems to me that they never saw the guy, cause they walked like "their's a crazy kid, let's move". Then I saw the girl again. But this time she wasn't with her gang. She stood up on me. "What do you want again?" I asked furiously, and apushed her aside, but she stood on me again. "I want to talk to you."
"Since when did you talk to me with sense?" I pushed her aside again and obviously she stood up again. "Well, sorry for the bad entrance. Just keeping a tough reputation in front of my friends." This time I didn't push her. "I'm Julie." And smiled. "Ummm. . . Noel." And smiled too. She giggled. "Well, shouldn't you be with your friends?"
"Well, sometimes you gotta be alone to do the something. . Which y'know. . Can't be done with friends."
"I understand."
"So. . . Do you actually have a girlfriend?"
"I guess so."
"Not the right answer."
"Well, we just had each other like days and we never met."
"What happened? did you break up with her?"
"Stuff. . . Which I don't want to tell about."
"Fine. Well that was fast though."
"Just shut up."
"Ok ok ok I will." Then she grabbed my hand and ran with me. "Where are you taking me?" "Somewhere I want you to be with." Then we went out of the village. Still don't know where to go. I grabbed my hand. Then she looked at me confused. "You know it's already 3:30 in p.m and I'm pretty sure my mom will be mad if I dont get there before dinner."
"Seriously? Don't be such a baby, the ride will only take like an hour."
"An hour?! Tell me where were going and I'm coming with you."
"Well, I don't wanna spoil the surprise."
. . . Fine. . ."
"Haha yay!" And she grabbed my hand again and searched for the nearest bus stop."seriously. Have you ever got out of this village?"
"Yeah I did. Just not that far."
"Well, that's great."
"Hey, don't be sad. This is going to be fun." As we stepped in the bus Julie handled evrything. Finding the seats,paying for ride, making strangers make a way for us and stuff. Which is not that amazing because either I can do that. When we get down, I just walked and followed her so that I won't get lost. "C'mon slowpoke!" She yelled at me and waving. She was already 20 meters away from the bus stop we came down, and I'm just like a meter away, how could that be? Well, I don't know, not the right time to find out. I still followed her, I then realized that we were already on a cliff, beneath it was the sea. Splashing on the rocks beside the after the cliff. "Why are we here?" I asked. "Well, we gotta talk about something." So she asked me a few questions. About my life, my family, And if sometimes if something very weird happens(which I didn't mention on what happened earlier). "Ok, I know you have one." She said. "Have what?"
"Well, I don't know what it's really called. Well, let's call it superpowers. A kiddy word but I also don't have explanations of this stuff."
"Wait, so you can change time too?"
"No. I can just run fast and slow time,of course except me. But change time?dude you're awesome!"
"Seriously, so we really have to go this far just to tell me that you have powers too?"
"I don't know. If we have powers, It means there's enemies we have to take care of. Like when the time I knew about my powers, someguy with a black jacket was following me until then."
"The hell, When I knew my powers a guy with a black jacket too was following me. As I came near it almost bit me and FLY."
"Oh yeah! Forgot to mention that the guy also flies, hehehe."
"So do you think that they were millions of people like us in this world?"
"Well, I think so." Then it all happened fast. The guy in the black jacket was a meter away from Julie and his running like an athlete, I saw Julie's face shocked as I looked behind the same guy was behind me and was running fast, as she grabbed my hand the two guys were running slowly and people walk very slow and the grass slowly moves too. Everything was in slow-motion. As I stood up and got an inch away from Julie's hand the guys ran fast, then she grabbed my hand again and they were already an inch close to us. "Never let go." She said. We ran away from them, and when we were meters away from us she commanded me to sleep. "We have to change time and go back to were I saw you. And tell me about what happened this time. Ok?"
"Well, can You just sleep with me so you can come with me in this dizzy world and don't forget what happened today?"
"I don't know. I think I might loose connection from time."
"Wait, you think time is a person?"
"Well I can feel that I'm connected with a stronghold. Like everytime I use my powers I feel like I can do everything."
"Just sleep with me and try."
"fine." So we slept with our hands holding each other's. And in a matter of minutes we came again in this dizzy world, and we were like falling. "I promise to myself I will never do this again!" She said, screaming. "Just don't let go!" Yeah, cause I thought that letting her hand go will loose connection and came back on where we are. Or worse. Something bad might happen like I loose control and came back to the dinosaur age. Just to make sure that won't happen.

Then I woke up. In class, Doris. Kind of a rat name but he is my science teacher.
"Sleeping again in class Noel." The teacher said angrily and confiscated my notebook.
"Ugh, just a peice of junk. You're not even writing anything in this notebook!"
As he scolded me I never tend to bother it. As I saw the guy with the black jacket again in the window outside my classroom smiling at me like he found dinner. "About time."
He said and faded. "the hell do you think I'm outside the window Noel!?" My teacher shouted that turned my attention back to him. "Sorry sir." But he didn't stop. Until the bell rang. All of my classmates cheered and left the classroom. "Tomorrow you do that Noel, I'll send you right in the principal's office!" I nodded and left. Ran to meet Julie again. "Hey!" I shouted as I saw Julie. "What are we going to do now?"
Umm. i dunno. Use your change-time powers I guess."
"I saw the guy again."
"Of course we saw it's the same."
"NO! I mean, I saw him outside my classroom and said 'about time.' So what do you think that means?
"That your going to be his dinner?"
"I'm serious Julie. Do you know anything?"
"Well, what I just know is that were enemies with them, and we don't even know what to do."
"Don't worry about that know. Let's just be in our house and talk about this tomorrow."
