"Um, hello?" I responded

I had seen this woman in a picture inside Enoch's bag, she looked motherly
But my mouth still hung open at the sight of her.
Enoch leaned over and whispered in my ear, "darling, your your catching flies." I closed my mouth and looked at him, he was smirking.

"Well you must be hungry then, come inside dear." She smiled and stepped back

Six children stood behind her.

All different in shape, size and peculiarity.

Whatever that word meant.

I looked over to Miss Mclaggin her smile seemed to burn into me.
She gestured towards the children, turning swiftly.
"These are my children, figuratively." She said
I smiled and the children in front of me abruptly made a quick line.

One of the children walked towards me,
A lanky boy with shimmering blue eyes and bright blonde hair. He smiled
"I'm Ben Thorneburry, I can change into things."

Miss Mclaggin slightly coughed, "what he means is he has Therianthropy. The ability to change into animals or people." I nodded,

Dumbfounded.

He shook his head and in just a few second he had disappeared into thin air,
A small cat replacing him.

Then the cat disappeared and Enoch replaced it.
I laughed the real Enoch behind me grunted.

Then he had returned to the face that was in front of me not seconds before.
He smirked.
-
Next in line was a small girl with large blue eyes and and jet black hair. She didn't smile.

"I'm Coraline Siearra, Pyrokinesis is my specialty."  She nodded and backed up,

She pulled a large candle out of her coat and a match.

The candle lit up, then it burnt out.

Then it lit up again,

Then it burnt out.

Coralline focused on it.

I smiled, "wow!" I said
"Thanks." She walked away.
-
The next girl looked to be about fourteen, she had blonde hair and blue eyes.
"I'm Liesel Keilsburgh, Telepathy." She smiled brightly,

"Think of something, I'll know."
I nodded,

My Brother
"Your brother." She said

Apples
"Apples." She said

Cats
"Cats." She said

My family
"Your family." She said

Enoch.
"Love." She said

"But your wrong." I said scrunching my lips

"Sure I am." She winked and walked off.
-
Next was a tall boy, handsome, probably fourteen.

"I'm Hugh Sacrol, My Peculiarity is Duplication." He smiled and ran a hand though his brown hair.

Then another him appeared.

"impossible."

"Nope."

Then three Hughs,

Then four

Then five.

I clapped "wow, that's incredible."

He bowed.
-
The next to come up was a girl about my age with dark skin, freckles and frizzy dark brown hair.
" I'm Poppy Sienna, I can communicate to the deceased."

I was slightly taken aback, the dead
"Um," I snorted, "wow."
She shuffled her feet and walked towards me,

"I know about your father." she whispered

My breathing hitched.

"Fascinating." I said, my throat tight.
-
The final child was a tall boy with brown hair and green eyes.

He smiled,

I smiled.

He extended his hand and I shook it.
"I'm Alfie Blithe, Invisibility."

Then he disappeared, then reappeared behind me.

"That's incredible." I said excitedly
"Thanks." He said

I looked over at Enoch,
"What's your peculiarity?" I asked

He stared at me

"I'm a dead riser."
