Halloween, the only excuse to be my weird self. To dress up like your favorite characters like Dracula or Frankenstein and not get beaten up.

We have girls dressing up like black cats, hookers, or even Elsa. Then there are the guys who want to show off their body so they'll be a firefighter, policemen, or Magic Mike.

Then there's people like me who just sit on the couch, eating candy, watching Halloween specials. I know that I sound like a loner, but I just don't feel comfortable around a lot of people. I only feel comfortable around my family and close friends as you can see.

Only tonight, I'm forced to go to Angela's party. Her party is at 9:00 and its 6:05 now so I have time. I was getting costume ready when I heard the doorbell ring. I open the door and three girls about twelve. The girl on the left is was dressed up as Tinkerbell, The girl in the middle was dressed up as a ladybug and the girl on the right was dressed up as Cleopatra.

"Trick-or-treat," they said in unison.

"You all look so adorable," I complemented.

Then I grabbed the bowl of candy that was next to the door and gave them each two. They thanked me and went off. Before I could close the door the three girls came across this very odd girl that also looked about twelve. They all pulled her hair and called her names. They also took some of your candy and slapped her in the face a couple times. They left her on the ground crying.

I walk out and helped her. Her make up was starting to come off because of her tears. She looked up at me, terrified. Her eyes blue as Johnson's, her skin as pale as a cloud, and her hair was black as the night sky. She started backing up from me.

"Don't be scared," I said kneeling down.

Her hands and knees were bleeding. Her left cheek has a red hand print. So I held out my hand. She hesitated at first, but she put her hand in mine and I pulled her up. There was a light forming in between our hands. We lit go as soon as we saw that. Then we touch our hands again and the light formed again.

"You're just like me," she whispered afraid.

I took out my necklace and look at it.

"I have to same necklace," she said taking out her necklace.

It look exactly like mine. I was so happy that I wasn't the only one. The ground started to shake and I can hear thunder going crazy in the background.

"Hey, we need to stay calm," I said holding her shoulders.

She nodded, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. Everything suddenly stopped in an instant.

"I'm sorry," she said blushing,"I'm just really excited, that I'm not the only one."

"I'm glad too," I said smiling,"What's your name?"

"Ellie," she said shyly.

"Shawn," I said shaking her hand.

I looked her hand that I held and the wound is gone.

"Your scrap is gone!" I said pointing at her left hand.

"Oh my God, you're right!" She said excited.

I see the ground start to crack.

"Ellie, calm down," I said calmly.

"Whoops, sorry," she said faintly smiling.

"Hang on, I got an idea," I said sitting her down on the porch,"Give me on of your knees."

I put both my hands on her bloody knee. The light formed in my hands. I take my hands off and her knee was completely healed.

"This is so freaky," she said looking worried.

"You don't have to tell me twice," I said laughing.

I heal the rest of her wounds. I talked about how I got my necklace and my powers that I got.

"So what about you?" I asked.

"Well, I've bullied for a majority of my life," she started,"I've been called names, beaten, lied to, the list goes on and on."

She took a deep breath and starting again.

"What made matters worst was my mother died, a few day after my birthday," she said whipping her tears away,"Which was two months ago, she told me before she died, take this necklace, this will protect you from any danger, and never take it off."

She bites her lip to try to hold the ocean of tears.

"She died right in front of me, and I couldn't do anything about it," she said as tears stream down her face.

It begins to pour about outside. I can hear the thunder and I see lighting in the distance. I pulled her close, rubbing her back.

"Ellie, look at me," I said turn her towards me,"There's was nothing you could of done, it isn't your fault."

"Shawn, you and I have these powers that could save anyone that is hurt or dying!" She shouted.

She stands up as thunder crashed in the background.

"Why does everything I touch dies?!" She screamed as lighting lit up the sky.

She screams on the top of her lungs and starts pulling her hair. I stand up and hug her tight. I see the light on her back. She begins to calm down and I can tell because the thunder, lightning, and rain stopped. I let go of her, kneeled down to her level. Her head was down and her fist was still clenched. I held both of her hands and she looked at me.

"I'm s-sorry, Shawn," she stuttered,"I lost it for a second."

"It's okay, sometimes you need to let it out," I said smiling.

She nodded and hugged me tight. I can feel her smiling. I pick her up and brought her to her bag.

"Hey Shawn, look!" She said pointing to the sky.

There was three rainbows above each other.

"I guess Katie Perry was right," I said picking up her bag.

"What do you mean?" She asked confused.

"After a hurricane comes a rainbow," I sang to her.

She nodded and smiled brightly.

"You sing really good," she complimented.

"Thank you," I said blushing.

"Here," I said giving her half the candy in the bowl.

"Really?!" She said excited.

"Ellie, calm down," I warned,"And yes really."

"Sorry and thanks, Shawn," she said as I dump the candy in.

She checked her phone and looked surprised. 

"Oh my goodness, it almost seven," she said eyes widened,"I got to get home, bye Shawn."

"Bye Ellie," I said as I got inside to get ready.
