Jules Cornwell POV
June 12, 2026
Today as a treat for my 22th birthday, I took myself to Madagascar. There was a vendor on the street and he was selling these peculiar looking pencils and notebooks. The designs were like nothing I'd ever seen before."No, no, no" I think, "that doesn't even begin to capture what it looks like. Ugg, I'm supposed to be an author, a bestselling one even!"
As I start to erase, I realize I'll never be able to capture the true beauty of the objects I had bought.
The vendor warned me, "beware of these objects great potential, use them for good." Then in a more sinister voice, his eyes in slits, his head pointed downward, yet his eyes still looking at me, "Or for evil" His nose twitching in a sinister way (if that's possible).
As I think back to the moment it makes me shudder, a chill runs down my back.
***********************
2 Days laterAs I sit in my house, okay, mansion, I sigh to myself "finally I'm home."
Jason-Stephen Hansen, my boyfriend, won't be home for a few hours, so I have time to kill.
As I sit down at my desk I begin thinking about the strange man's words. "Use them for good, or for evil." This simple sentence plays in my head a few more times before it comes to me, " What's the most common decision concerning good and evil in books," I think "SUPERPOWERS!" I shout excitedly. Then I put my hand over my mouth looking around to see if anyone heard me(of course no one did), embarrassed.
I hurriedly get out my new notebook and pencil and start to jot down my ideas.
A girl, that I can't seem to name, is in my story. She's a writer, dreamer, singer and philosopher, just like me. One days she gets in a terrible accident, that I can't seem to decide on, and gains powers. She is forced to make the classic decision of good or evil. On the evil path, she could use her powers to steal and gain money to pay the bills for her family who is struggling with the rent. She could make it so that her sisters and herself would have a good education and eventually go to collage. On the good path she could help the citizens of _____(can't seem to come up with a good name for her town either) and maybe somehow earn money to help her family, but this way it's not garunteed. She gets 3 powers at a time and can change the as she pleases. She currently has the powers of flight, invisibility and telekinesis.
As I get back up and stretch, I look at the clock, "I've been working for hours, about 2, Jason'll be home soon" I realize and a burst of happiness shoots though me! I go out into my huge backyard, kick off my shoes (shoes are a prison for your feet), and start to whirl in the grass, laughing. I close my eyes and soon don't feel the grass under my feet, at first I suspect I'm just not focusing on it, but when I do, I still don't feel the grass. My eyes shoot open, and I'm floating in the sky😮, no, flying!
I hear Jason's car start to park in the driveway, this is enough for me to lose focus and plumet to the ground. I land on the ground with a thud. "OW" I cry out, and everything starts to go black, I'm losing consiousness. Then as I'm almost unconscious, I see Jason running twards me with a worried look,.
Everything goes black.
