It's their battle

Chapter 3: they think we are dead

The girls found blankets to sleep in and Alexandra made the fire. Not with sticks. With her hands. No one blinked to sleep.
"Is anyone awake?" Grace asks as her back was towards the flaming red fire.
"Yeah..." Everyone sat up. Except one person.
"Oi! Sangkavie. Get up." Paniz huffed.
"Let her sleep." Alexandra nudged Paniz.
"At Least one of us will be able to rest." Sarah sighed.
"What are we meant to do?" Zinab asked. We are only 13. We aren't heroes."
"Yeah but we have powers!" Vindi said.
"I hate my power." Brikena moaned."How is talking to animals going to help us."
Paniz laughed. "It will come in use my friend. Just wait on it."
"It's easy for you to say! Your bloody strong." Khadijah commented.
"And you run fast. Really fast." Grace said. "I stretch."
"Like a liquorice?" Karolina asked "That is cool." Said Oliwia licking her thin red lips.
"Guys go to sleep!" Paniz changed the subject. "We have a long day ahead of us."
"Yeah and we get to tell our parents we are alive!" Brikena cheered with her glittering green eyes while holding hands with Caglas pale hand.
"No!" Cagla squeezed Brikena's hand. "They must not know. They will think we are freaks."
"I agree with Cagla." Paniz nodded.

Everyone ended up crying them selves to sleep. But Cagla was wide awake with swollen eyes. And icy tears dripping down. "I love you Maisie." She whispered to her self and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning everyone awoke to the smell of egg.
"Rise and shine everyone!" Sangkavie grinned.
"Where did you get the eggs from?" Oliwia asked.
"I stole them." Sangkavie shrugged.
"You just flew there and stole eggs?" Lauren asked.
"Exactly!" Sangkavie grinned.
"Wow," Grace nodded in approval.
"Well done." Laughed Khadijah. "Not very heroic for a hero."

All the girls finished with their food and came up with a strategy to strengthen their power. Each of them practiced their power. In different parts of the school. Firstly, Alexandra made fire for each classroom for the rest to stay warm but she left out Lauren's room because the fire will stop Lauren's power. Ice.
