"Did we do that?" Marla said shaking.
Autumn bends down to touch the ground and swipes her hand across the grass, leaving a trail of flowers. She wisps her hand away making the flowers stop growing. "I think I might have an answer."
"Did anyone, outside of us, see that?" Genna asks.
Marla turns to a tree "Let me see if I can get a better look." She climbs up with great haste and sees civilization in a far distance. "I don't think so" she hops down.
A long dark silence falls down with her. Marla sits down to coop with all that has happened. Autumn follows putting a relaxing arm around Marla. Isaiah, Hannah and Genna sit too forming a circle.
"So, we have powers" Isaiah seems to speak the obvious truth when no one else wants to face it.
Marla laughs "All the times I imagined having powers"
"Now that we have them what do we do?" Hannah finished.
"You know what we're gonna find out" Marla stands to her feet, but no one follows her. She is left with blank stares. "Ugh! We got these powers for a reason"
"Yeah, and we woke up here for a reason!" Isaiah says
"You catching on?"
"No not really I was hoping that you would go on"
"Well, I wanted to say we should meet here annually and practice our skills"
"Then what?"
"Then we find a good use for them" Marla puts her hand in the middle of the circle "All in?"
Genna, Hannah, Autumn, and Isaiah put their hands in and when they raise their hands up to say all in another flash of light plumes from the sky. The friends look down at their hands for damage but each find a symbol on the wrist.
"That's going to be hard to hide", Autumn sighs.
Isaiah sighs "Yep, school next week is going to be tough"
