Invisible - Diego Hargreeves Fanfic

How Did I End Up Here ...

Trigger warning : Mention / Description of a Panic Attack.

On the 12th hour of the 1st day of October 1989, 43 women around the world gave birth. This was unusual only in the fact that none of these women had been pregnant when the day first began. Sir Reginald Hargreeves, eccentric billionaire and adventurer, resolved to locate and adopt as many of the children as possible. He got 7 of them.

" Mom please ! "

" Nope. " 

" Mom, we can talk about this. "

" No we can't. "

" Why not ? " My mom completely ignored me. I started banging even louder on the locked door. 

" Mom, I'm sorry I didn't mean to. MOM !" 

I heard the door shut. She'd left the house and locked me in. Is she going to go to the police ? Is she going to abandon me here and never come back. This room doesn't even have windows. I'll never make it out of here alive. I can't do shit with my power. God I'm so fucking useless. I start hitting the door with the side of my body hoping it will break or someone will hear me and come help  me. I don't know what to do. I should've never told her I have powers. I should've never showed her. Now here I am, locked in a closet, alone. No one around. My heart is pounding faster and faster . The room starts to get smaller. What the fuck is happening  ? I can't breath. I fall to the ground. I don't know what to do. The little light that's in the room begins disappearing and I black out. 

I wake up my head spinning. I hold on a shelf and pull myself back up. I hear noise. People.  Thank God. Before I even begin knocking on the door, it opens.  It's mom, some lady who's holding papers in her hands, a police officer, an old man with a monocle and kids that look my age in masks. What is going on. 

" That's her. " 

" Ma'am are you sure you want to do this ?"  The lady asked.

" Do what ? Mom ?" 

" It's okay y/n you'll be okay."

" What do you mean I'll be okay ?" I push my mother's arms off of me and walk out of the closet. 

" Show me your powers child. " The man with the monocle commanded and I looked at him. 

" No." 

" Y/n do it. " 

" I trusted you mom. " 

" I know. It's for the best, please show them. " 

I took a deep breath and disappeared.  Everyone's eyes were now wide open. I could tell, that even the kids in the masks were impressed. 

" Where is she ? Did she-"

" Quiet number four." 

I was confused. I stopped being invisible and looked at the man curious. 

" Number four ?" 

" I'll take her. Where do I sign ?"

The man pushed me aside and walked over to the lady.

" Mom, what is he talking about ? " I know damn well what's he's talking about. I just don't want to admit to myself that mom would do such a thing. I mean she loves me. Right ?

" You're going to learn more about your powers okay ? You're better off."  The man signed the papers and the lady with the cop left. 

" No. " 

" Come on child. " The man said. A girl held my hand and smiled. 

" What about me ? "  My mom asked and the man turned to her.
