This new world on earth is strange. People don't have elements. Daddy says I can't reveal my powers to anyone. Not even my best friend Jake can. He got expelled with me after he froze the principals office, just to travel this road with me. Jake is an Evergreen. An earth and an air. But a mixture of them. The earth, his mother, is a plant earth and his dad, the air, is a snow air. Which makes him an evergreen. Jake is 5"5 and handsome. He has dimples and brown hair that flows over his face, like his dad blew it for him. I am 5"2 with my moms multicolored red/orange wavy hair. Starts at dark red at the roots, and ends at a light orange at the tips. I try to hold it down with a loose, side pony tail, but even though Daddy says not to expose my powers, when I get mad, my flame grows brighter and lifts in the air as actual fire instead of hair. When Jake gets mad, he stomps the ground and it shakes, or he huffs hot steam out of his nose or mouth. Tomorrow is the first day of High School. I text Jake with 'are you ready?' and he responds with a beep from his car.
