CHAPTER 1 "TALENT"
It was a grey, black morning. The humid air tugging at my dry skin. The perfect picture of California in the summer of 2013. I walked along the beach, the sand shifting under my feet as they set down rhythmically with my breath. A rogue wave occasionally washing over my feet. My long black sun dress bobbing in the breeze, flowing out behind me. The week had been difficult and hard on my mind. I had a acquired a new "talent" as HE called them. But with this new gift, all my hope of one day being normal vanished.
The scene replayed in my mind over and over again. I was walking in a dark alley, when this guy jumped out at me. I only remember a dark shadow and a glint of metal in it's hand. I throw my hand towards him out of reflex. I can only recall a low moan and the clinging of the metal on the pavement. He had fallen to his knees, he began begging for mersy. "Stop," he pleaded, "stop just stop!" My hand flew down to my side, the man ran away in a panic. I had hurt him without even touching him.
I had to understand. What the hell was I? My mind raced as I thought of the man. My thoughts flew upon the power I had felt, it was unmatched. It was a rush of pure power, extending though my finger tips. My mind was spinning, it was all so impossible. What was I? Two words kept coming to mind, but I kept them down with all of my might.
Monster...
God...
" Avril," I was pulled back to reality, "Avril, what the hell, where have you been."
I stared up at my friend maya, she was so tall. Her dark skin, thin lips, and curly messy hair made her look beautiful and terrifying at the same time.
"I was just thinking and my thoughts Carr-carried me away," I stated, occasional studder returning. I looked up at my friend again, comparing myself to her. I was smaller then her, shoulder length brown hair, giant calves, no ass, and top heavy, my skin mildly fair.
"Well get back to the party," Maya said hitting my arm, "I don't turn 15 everyday!"
I loved her like a sister but something was preventing me from giving myself fully to this party. I began trailing off in my thoughts again. My eyes were set on the rolling green-blue, foaming waters, rushing out the retracting.
My eyes suddenly caught on a man, he looked about 16. He wasn't dressed for the beach, all in leather and jean. I squinted trying to get a better look, he was looking right at me. I heard a voice my head, " didn't anyone ever tell you it's not nice to stare? Embarrassed, I quickly looked away. My thoughts continued and I quickly forgot the boy.
I left the party with my adopted father. I sat in the car looking dreamily out the window. What was I going to do with myself? I couldn't stay here. I had to go, but where? The questions just kept multiplying.
My phone buzzed, it was my friend Kristina. We began talking.
K- hey
A- sup
K- NM u?
A- riding home from a party.
K- coolio, u wanna hang tomorrow?
A- surely
K- cool meet me at two in balboa park.
I was happy I was going to see my friend, but part of me was dreading this meeting. My mind was repeating that phrase that I had ignored with all my being.
You're a monster
You're a monster. ..... Embrace it, love
