Aura Benders

Chapter one: 1st day at Aura Bending Academy

OK. So let me explain how I screwed up on the 1st day at my new school. Let me start at the beginning of the day... Because if I don't... You'll be lost... Anyways...

OK. So I woke up today and realized that yesterday I arrived at my new school, and I'd be staying here for the whole semester; I got up from my bed and walked to the bathroom; I was so happy that I had my own dorm room, and I could get up without having to worry about being late for class because of some Bender was taking up the bathroom; oh, and I forgot; a Bender is an Aura Bender; I brushed my teeth and my curly dark turquoise hair, and then I got in my uniform; a dark blue skirt, white shirt, dark red vest, dark red tie, and a dark blue jacket with the crest of my school on the chest pocket, and after I got ready I walked out of my dorm room with my bag in hand and black dress shoes on my feet.

My first class was learning how to keep our aura powers contained and controlled, and the second was learning what types of auras there were; I have a violet aura; 'I am charismatic and powerful' 'a born leader'; but it's my powers that define my aura; I'm able to detect lies and I can read auras to know their thoughts, memories and powers. I can control cosmic energy and gravity. I can replicate powers for a short time after physical contact (probably explains why I got my own dorm room) and I can project blasts of dark matter. I can distort space time to pass through objects. And I can cancel gravity so I or other things can levitate... I know. I sound cool. But really? I'm probably the weakest link here.

It was finally lunch time and I knew the good classes would be after lunch; classes after lunch were the physical classes, which meant I could take off my gloves, touch people, and win; I know... I don't sound like a violet aura; oh well.

It was finally time for P.E, first we split into groups, all the same auras go into the same group, and I was the only one in my group; see, violets now days are very unpopular; the most popular is blue. When I was in my group, the teacher wasn't even a violet; I said "Are we gonna train or what?" he said "Don't use that tone with me, young lady" I said sarcastically "Oh, I'm sorry... dad" he said "Juno... Don't start with me..." I said "Or what? You gonna cast a dark shadow over me for a week?" he said "I will if I have to" I rolled my eyes, and said "Why'd you have to be my group leader?" he shook his head and then charged I didn't expect it and I put my hands up to my face but the impact never came, and then I heard a thud behind me; I turned around and looked at my dad; he had his butt sticking up and his face was in the ground; I ran to him and saw that his face was literally stuck in the ground; I pulled on his shirt and he came out, he said "JUNO!" I said "Sorry" I bit my lip and said "I didn't mean to..." he stood and said "It's not your fault; it's just reflexes. That's good" I said "How was that good? Your head was stuck in the ground" and everyone laughed; some people even called me a freak and then I had to go; I hated it when people bullied me; but when I tried to go, someone pushed me back; I fell right on my tail bone; as I tried to get up someone pushed me back a little more, I stayed on my feet, I looked at them and then did they all start charging me.

I put my hands up like I did with my dad and again the crashing never came and then I finally took off my gloves and I touched someone and fire came shooting out, guess it was a yellow aura, and then the fire died down and I touched someone else and sound came; green aura and finally I touched an orange aura and I made a blizzard but once it disappeared... I saw a stuck up yellow aura and she screamed and threw fire at me, I put up my hands but when the fire came... it burned.

I went down in pain; I screamed and rocked myself back and forth; my hands were burned and it was still sizzling; a boy about my age ran up and sat down and then took my sizzling hands; I screamed of course; and then he took one of his hands and ran it gently over my hands and then he turned them over and did it again; he did that until my hands were healed; he said "what happened to your power?" I said "I don't know" he stood up and looked at the girl who burned me; she said "What? She was the one who started this" he said "No she wasn't. You pushed her down first" the girl said "Jackson, don't start anything you can't finish" and she walked away. I got up from my position and said "She's right. She started it and she finished it. I on the other hand... am now a loser" he said "No you aren't. I could be your friend. If you want" he was grinning, I grinned and said "Sure. Why not make a friend on the first day of school... that doesn't seem super cheesy" he laughed and he walked me back to the indoor practices; on the way there I said "My name's Juno" he said "Well, you heard Sabrina. My name's Jackson" I said "Nice to meet you. Oh, and thanks for saving my hands" he said "No problem".

So. That's how I screwed up my first day; but I also gained a friend...
