     *Leilani's Provo*
     "Beep, beep, beep, beep!"
   I groan and roll over on my bed flinging my hand around untill I successfully hit the dismiss button on my alarm. I fling my covers off of me with a twist of my hand and mentally smack myself.
     "You can't keep doing that. What if one day you used them and lost control?" I mentally scold myself.
     I check the clock 9 o'clock. I get up and slip on my doctor who slipers and walk upstairs and let my foster mum know im up and getting ready for the day. I than walk back downstairs and over to my bathroom that I share with my foster sister, Michelle. I cut on the shower and use the toilet. I wash my hands and go to my room and grab some clothes for today. I walk back to the shower and put my clothes on the sink. I strip down and get in the shower sighing as the hot water hits my body like bullets. I wet my hair and grab the shampoo and lather my hair with it. Than I wash it and and do the same with the conditioner. I wash my body and shave in the approite places that needs to be shaved. Then I got out of the shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, floss, and use mouth wash. I take my wet hair and throw it up in a messy poney tail and I walk back to my room and start to unpack my clothes that needs to be unpacked. I finish around 1 and I head upstairs again, after I shove my phone and earbuds in my back pocket and my pocket knives in there desinated areas. The biggest one goes on my hip, between my pants line and skin, the median sized one goes in my shoe and the smallest one goes in my bra. I walk upstairs heading straight to the kitchen. I grab a plate and put some scrambled eggs on it and a sunny side up egg on it along with some median cooked bacon and lastly I put some pancakes on my plate.  I put it on the table then I head to the refrigerator and pull out the orange juice. I grab a regular glass and fill it half way. I than grab some silverware and head to the table, along with the juice. I sit down and I start eating.
     "Hey mom can we go to the playground today?" My little sister, Jade, ask.
     "Maybe if all your rooms are clean." Our foster mum, Janice, replies.
     The youngest three: Michelle, Ashley, and Jade: scurry off to clean their rooms. I sit their and Janice looks at me.
     "Zeyna (prounced Zay-na) wants to go to her boyfriends house and Harris is in the feild and I have errands to run. Can you handle watching them for a few hours?"
     "Sure Janice. What time do you want us home?" I ask her.
     "Anytime is good. I know how you are with wanting to go to the woods a few hours before dark."
    "Yeah thats good." I reply cleaning my now finished plate in the sink.
     "Thanks." She says. "Take the car."
     "I rather us, walk its a nice day and you know how I am with others in the car."
     "Ok fine." She gets up and goes into the living room.
     I run downstairs and grab my bag that has everything I will need in it and head out side to wait on the girls, they come out.
     "Lets walk today." I say.
     None of them say no so we walk down the road to the park. It takes us ten minutes to get there and the girls run off to the playground and play their kiddy games.
      Michelle is 14 and she has dark hair and light colored dark skin. She is the skinniest of us all.
      Ashley is 13 and she has dark hair and a light dark skin. She's a bit more heavy weight and Jade is the same but she's 12.
      Zeyna is a little heavy weight but she's 17 just like me. We are a few months apart. I was born in July she was born is December. We get along pretty well. Somedays we have our ups and some days are out downs. But we don't survive the days without each other. All four of the girls are Mexican.
     I'm the palest of all five of us. I have blond hair and pale skin that matches with my pale blue eyes. I cover my eyes with contacts that make my eyes a little darker. I'm 5"3 1/2'. I'm a tomboy. I have werid powers. I don't know why but I just do.
     I watch the girls and they run around giggling and laughing I smile softly and pull my headphones and phone out. I plug my headphones in and I play my favorite three songs putting them on repeat. The first song is Animal by Three Days Grace. This song describes me in every way possible. I sit that and listen to it while watching the girls. We are here for a half hour when I see them start to agruee and Ashley starts crying. I roll my eyes while getting up and walking over to them. I pull out one of my headphones and look between the three.
     "What's going on here?" I question.
     "They won't let me play." Ashley says sniffling.
     "She keeps trying to play the boss when she's always the boss." Michelle says.
     "Guys don't make me the bad guy here. Ashley, Michelle is right, you are always the boss let one of the other two play boss. Get along you three, you know how mum is." I say.
     They nod and devie up the roles. I turn and walk back to my seat and sit down. As soon as I start to relax a painfull headach hits me. I groan and lean my head back. I close my eyes and let my mind wonder where it wants to go. It usually wonders around listing to everything but this time it let's me see what's going on around me, in places that I can't see by turning my head. I see people in the woods with water guns a few yards to my left. I let my mind focus on the water guns and I notice that they have something werid in them and I know I have to get the girls out of the park. My mind than flots to a clearing that is directly across the park in the woods away from the water guns. All of a sudden my mind snaps back and I stand up, my guard up. The girls look at me and I nod my head twice.  They nod back once and walk over to me slowly acting like that are still playing knowing our rutine.
     "Girls time to go!" I call out nicely.
     They continue playing and I let them for a bit.
     "Girls now!" I snap.
     They pout and walk over to me reluntacly. I lead them across the roads and I wait patiently for them at the bend, that is covered by the trees and then I usher them in the hidden path. I lead them into the woods and we come to the clearing. We sit and watch it unfold. The girls don't question me at all. They have learned to understand me. The people that were hidden in the woods now jump out and start spraying the kids in the park. The girls keep quite and not say a thing. After the boys spray the water guns they leave the park and we wait a few minutes before leaving our safe spot. We head back to the house. My foster family knows about my powers but the never worry about me hurting them. They only know the part of me seeing things that might hurt them but now my powers are getting more added so we don't know what to do.
     "Ice cream?" I ask as if nothing happened.
     They all nod and I grab the keys to the car. Michelle, Ashley, and Jade get in the back and I sit in the driver seat. We all buckle up and they put their headphones in and I cut on the radio to country music and leave the house. I drive down to yoders and I let the girls out. We go inside and the girls get the ice cream they want and I get my ice cream, chocolate chip cookie dough, than we head to the front and I pay for it. We then head outside and the girls go to the petting zoo and I sit up at the chairs while eating my ice cream. I smile when they walk up to me.
    "Hey Leilani, do you know anyone that has any quarters?" Jade asked.
     "I don't know anyone. Do you know anyone Ashley?"
     "No," she replies. "Do you Michelle?"
     "Yes I do." She says smiling.
     "Who?!" We all shout at her.
     "Leilani!!" She shouts back.
     We laugh and I pass out a quarter to each of them and they go and feed the goats. As I watch them I notice movement in the corner of my eye. I look over and I see some one beckoning me.
     "Girls I'm going to use the telly!" I call out to them. "Michelle you are in charge untill I get back."
     They reply with a thumbs up and I follow the person beckoning me. I walk around the corner and the person vanishes. I growl and I pull gently at my necklace. I look around and I see absolute nothing. I growl. My breathing stops as I feel a hand on my shoulder.
     "Shit."
