This school year I was hoping to have good classmates but by the looks of it that wasn't going to be the case. When I walked into my first period what I saw was horrifying. Kate Rickman who had been bullying me since we were in kindergarten was in my class. Kate had blond hair like mine but hers was straight and up in a high ponytail. She wore a white top paired pink bell bottom jeans and was an inch taller than me but always bent down to talk to me. "Please let me be in the wrong classroom" I whispered to myself. Kate got up out of her seat and walked over to me "Hay Oli nice seeing you again but I think your in the wrong classroom" She said bending down "I hope so." I mumbled under my breath "Now if you'll excuse me I am going to sit down." I walked over to the seat furthest away from where Kate was sitting. A few weeks passed and my teacher got a phone call that changed everything. "Hello?" She paused "Oh my well I will send them right away" It felt like my stomach did a back flip. I hoped it wasn't me she was saying oh my about and by the looks on everyone's faces they were hoping the same thing. She put down the phone and looked me directly in the eyes "Oli go to the office someone is here for you." I got up out of my seat and headed out the door. I felt like I was going to puck. When I got to the office there was a strange man in a white lab coat sitting in one of the seats. As soon as he saw me he got up and walked over "Hello there Oli! My name is Dr. Castro you shall be coming home with me to my lab." he said with a smile that sent shivers down my spine "Do I know you?" Dr. Castro shook his head "No Oli but I know you." He looked over to the lady at the front desk "Madam please inform Oli's teachers that she will no longer be attending fantle high." he grabbed my arm and dragged me out the door in to a white van with the words Dr. Castro's lab of freeks on it. We drove for hours when we finally arrived. The lab was a tall tan building but white on the inside. Inside the lab there were these rooms with big clear doors with people in them but they couldn't be people some had horns others had scales. There was only one girl who seemed to be human. The girl had short curly red hair and freckles.Dr. Castro directed me to the room she was in and opened the door "This is your new home Oli we start your testing at dawn so I would recommend getting a good night's sleep." I walked in as he shut the door behind me. I looked around room there were two beds. One of the beds had a pair of PJs and a toothbrush and toothpaste sitting on it and the other had a black cat sleeping on it. "Hi i'm Aria! What's your name?" A girl jumped out at me "Oh hi i'm Oli it's nice to meet you Aria." I said with a smile her jaw dropped "So you're the girl that Dr. Castro has been looking for! The one that can move things with her mind!" I look at her very confused "Sorry but I can't do that." she looked at me still believing I can "Try!" she says "Focus all you energy on that can over there!" I look over at the rusty can in the corner of the room and focused all my energy on it like she said and what do ya know the can starts to flout about and inch off the ground "Whats going on?!" I shout as I drop the can "You did it!" Aria scweels starting to jump up and down. There is a bang on the wall to our left. Then a boy opens a window connecting the two rooms and sticks his head in. The boy has chocolate brown hair, green eyes, and sticking out of his hair were two green horns "What's all the commotion?" the bow asks "She just learned how to use her powers!" The bo looks at Aria very confused "Her parents didn't teach her how to use them?" they both look at me "My parents died in a car accident when I was 2." The boys confused expression faded into a frown "Oh i'm sorry I didn't know." "It's ok." I say "It isn't your fault." there was an award pause "Well you two should get to bed. It's getting late." He pulled his head back in and shut the window. Aria runs over and jumps into bed cuddling the black cat. I walk over and get into bed. It takes me a while but eventually I fall asleep.
