Abilities

Chapter 18

Everyone else's family was fine, all Darius left were a bunch of questions. Why leave the note for Paige? Why shoot Joe, set the house on fire and take Gemma all while leaving Harry's mom unharmed? It wasn't safe for anyone they loved and it never would as long as Darius was free to do what he wanted. This was exactly what Harry was trying to convey to the others. They had all gone home and checked on their families, everything was great for them that's why they didn't understand that Darius needed to be stopped, now. "I know you're upset about Gemma Harry, we all are. I see her as a sister as well but we can't go barging into battle against this guy. We don't know what resources he has, think about it. Anne saw someone with yellow, almost cat like eyes. That screams special like us, just how many more do you think he has created?" Liam had a point but this was his sister. And next he could come after his mom, or Paige or his best friends. They were in his back yard and he could tell that he wasn't going to win this conversation. Then Paige squeezes his leg and says "Harry has a point. Maybe we shouldn't go in attacking not knowing what were up against but we should at least scope things out. Liam is also right if he's making more special people like us we need to know why and if he's going to use them against us. I think Niall, Erin, and I should go. I can teleport us there and Niall can see how many people are around and Erin can make us three invisible." It was all going well until that last sentence. "Paige I'm not letting you go alone again, last time I let that happen you came back soaked in blood carrying a note saying Darius would see you again! At least let me go too." “....Okay Harry you can go who else wants to?" Everyone did. Of course. "Well," said Eleanor, speaking up for the first time, I feel like we should practice using our abilities. We haven't used them in a while and we should prepare for an attack." They all stood up and started practicing. As they started shooting lightening, going invisible, and fire bending. They never noticed the man with the video camera.

The next day it was all over the news. Someone had seen all the commotion at Harry's house and called the news. The clips showed Zayn shooting fire into the air, Lois lifting Eleanor with one hand them throwing her a hundred feet into the air then she started flying. Niall was blindfolded but could still 'see' attacks coming and avoid them. Liam went on the record saying that someone must've just edited the video for it to look like they were doing these amazing things. Most people believed them, but there was still quite a large population who thought they were special and started calling Liam wolf boy on twitter. They also called Harry Thor, Louis superman, Zayn Zuko, and Niall the all seeing. A week past and the rumors started to die down even though people would ask them daily to lift a car, or go invisible. Then one of the worst things that could go wrong did. A reporter had gotten a hold of the police report from when they had been kidnapped. The proof was right in front of them. The secret was out. Everyone knew about Darius and that he could turn ordinary people extraordinary. People went insane, begging Darius to come and get them and give the powers some people offered millions of dollars to Darius and even said they'd meet him "off the record," so the police wouldn't be able to find him. Of course everyone was pissed. They conducted numerous interviews where they told there story on how horrible Darius was, they even showed videos of what he had done to Perrie. No one cared. They said that the pain would be worth it to have powers for the rest of their lives. Harry even described the serum as "be injected with fire. Everything hurts you can't help but scream and even when you pass out you can still feel the pain in every cell of your body but you just can't move. While I was under the serum wished for death almost every minute. And then you wake up and you can't move because of how exhausted you are. Trust me you don't want that." No one listened. And Darius was ecstatic.
