The start

24 2 3
                                    

The class were eagerly led down by Mrs Cipes

"Just breathe" whispered Rocket to himself

The class stopped in a huge room, it was the school gym

But it wasn't like any school gym you could imagine, the room was mostly bare, but in the middle was a big steel platform

Opposite the platform was a big computer, which Mrs Cipes sat down next to.

The group were confused

" first class, take a deep breath, because today is your last day of being normal, you will be able to do incredible things when you leave this room, so try not to get overwhelmed" stated Mrs Cipes

Silence fell across the class

"Saying that, today is a great day, it's your start to carry on your parents legacy, well, most of you..." Muttered Mrs Cipes, glancing over to Thran, then Ziggy and Nova.

"Just remember, whatever happened on that platform, it's yours, it's who you are, so own it" smiled Mrs Cipes

Before she could continue, she was interrupted by the teaching assistant Leopold Simmons.

"I'm so sorry I'm late!" Spluttered mr Simmons  in his strong Scottish accent.

"Oh dear mr lance, please do try to keep up, this is your first power revealing day, so try to just keep calm and have my back in case things take a turn for, for the worse" muttered Mrs Cipes, unimpressed 

Rocket was taken aback

"Wait, what do you mean, for the worse?" asked Rocket, concerned

Mrs Cipes took a deep breath

"As you all know class, you have to wear those silver bracelets to null your powers, you have ever since you were born. But today you get to take it off. However, the problem is, when you take them off for the first time, your powers can be a bit, um, unpredictable..." Explained the teacher quietly

"So one of might go flying into space, or set fire to the school?!" Shouted Ash

"No no, don't worry, the room contains your powers, and whoever is on the platform. If I press this button, you powers stop" stated Mrs cipes, pointing to a small silver button on the computer

Does not  fill me with confidence....

"It will be fine! your powers just go a bit crazy, but we can keep it calm, so who's up first?" Asked mr Simmons, glancing around the room

"Yo, it's like divergent, who's gonna be first jumper???" Grinned micro

Ash rolled her eyes

"Oh for god sake, I'll do it then!" Huffed ash, stepping onto the platform.

"That's my girl, braver then all you wimps, go thread your eyebrows!" Exclaimed Micro Ice proudly

The popular girls glared at him

"Shut up!" Shouted Ash as she steadied herself on the platform, secretly happy that Micro acknowledged that she wasn't like the other girls in the class

Ash and Nova were the only girls in the class who didn't care about frivolous things like makeup and fashion, they were just happy being who they were

Not that ash wanted to be compared to Nova, as that's where the similarities stopped

Ash could a bit argumentative at times, but she wasn't a bully like Nova.

Her friends and Micro ice were the only ones who could see that she wasn't either, popular or a bully

She was just herself, and micro loved her for it

And now she was the first, the first to find out what she could do

Ash looked at the class in front of her, terrified

Of what she could do

Or what she might become....

"Ok ash, when your ready, take off your bracelet, just try to take it slow" instructed Mrs Cipes, as the platform extended, and walls formed around Ash in a large square

Ash took a deep breath, and held her left wrist in front her.

She stared at it for second, am I really doing this?

She shook her head, then, quickly threw the bracelet into the small hole in the platform

Ash didn't dare to move, she just waited for something to happen

But nothing did

"Um, am I doing something wrong?" Shouted Ash, trying to be heard through the glass walls surrounding her on the platform

"Hmm, OK, this is gonna sound stupid, but sort of throw your hands out in front of you, see if something happens" shrugged Mrs Cipes

Ash stuck her hands out, nothing

She then began to walk around the edge of the platform, wondering what to try next

Ash casually ran her fingers along the glass, she didn't notice her fingers were going straight threw it.

It was only when she lent against the glass, and fell straight through like it wasn't there, she knew.

"No freaking way!!!!" Shouted Ash, bouncing back up and easily walking straight through the glass again, back on to the platform

"Ah, a classic, Intangibility" stated mr Simmons, smiling

"This is too cool!" Grinned Ash, repeatedly passing her hand through the glass which was meant to be keeping her contained

"awesome!" Exclaimed Micro Ice

Ash was beaming, she ran straight at Micro, about to give him a hug, when she phased straight through him.

"Jesus Christ that felt weird!" Shouted Micro, shaking   

"I, I didn't mean too, sorry Micro, Miss is right, I can't control it" stuttered Ash, embarrassed

"Hey it's ok, that's why we are here, we can work it out together" smiled micro kindly

Ash smiled gleefully

"So Ash is a phaser, now you know how this works, who's next?" Mrs Cipes
