As soon as I heard these words I felt pain going through my head, He was messing with my head. He had put this helmet thing over my head and I was now in some world filled with strange creatures dancing around me, was he making me bonkers? Suddenly Laughter broke out through the dancing Silhouettes moving closer and closer until I screamed out to my parents. Why was I the one that had to delt with this magic and why would my father be such a idiot. Suddenly I felt something warm touch my cheek and wipe the tear from my eyes, mommy? Then someone else float towards me and it was my father? I didn't know what on earth what was going on in my wonderland. My mother leaned over in my ear and said'' When life beats you down you don't stay down you get up and keep getting up everytime it beats you because life will never get the best of you''. Those words created a spark in me one that would never go out. I got up and hug my parents tightly because I knew that their wonderland was waiting for them. They slowly went up in the sky and waved back at me smiling, I remember that back then that father and mother were still happy even through tough times. Suddenly vision was black for me and I was awake to see everyone clapping, Still confused I didn't care much anymore. The owner of the Orphanage went around me and was now in front of me. He kneeled down and patted me on the back and said'' Congrats you lived, well off to bed childern''. I walked slowly back to my room in silent terrified on what happened to me. I went in my room and just laid on the bed wondering how painful it was for everyone else. I heard footsteps coming inside and was now next to my bed. I got a flashlight out to see Lucy stareing at me with a creepy faint smile. She giggled and swayed side to side to her bed, what was with her?
The next morning I woke up to the sound of giggling and I squinted my eyes open to see them covering their mouth trying not to laugh. I walked to a mirror and my eyes literaly shot to see My skin was metal! Lucy walked in a titled her head and said'' Oh so you have a skin protector''? I turned my head over to her and said' 'Do you know what it does?''. She chuckled and said'' Well when your about to get strike with something it protects your skin and it also stretches out so you can use your finger as little knifes''. I stretched my metal fingers to a teddy bear and dragged it to my hands, I hope I don't join the X-men or the avengers because of this. I looked over at Lucy and said' 'What's your power?'' She got off from her bed and said' 'walk over to me and find out''. I walked over to her but for some reason It felt like I was trying to walk through a wall. She chuckled and said'' that's a force field that's what I have''. Suddenly a bell rang and we ran down stairs for breakfast. I sat between Lucy and Fala.I looked across from me to see a girl with Long Purple hair and some girl with short black hair sitting quietly. I tapped Lucy on the shoulder and said ''hey what's their names?'' She sighed and said'' The girl with the purple hair is Teresa and she can find where someone Is and what their doing and the girl with the short black hair Is Anastasia she is able to bend water''. I turned to see 2 brown haired twins and an albino boy slowly eat the pancakes. I turned back to Lucy again said and ''who are those boys?'' She dropped the fork and said'' Well for the twins their names are Darko and Chand, Darko power is what I call Puppeteer which means He can control anything he desires expect people with powers which is us and then we have Chand who uses Illusions like he make a an animal appear or make someone you know appear''. '' so who's the albino boy?'' I said to Lucy. She suddenly went quite for a second and said''Corwin is his name but the thing no one knows his power but the head master has seen it but when we did the ritual we got knocked out and didn't get to see him use it''. I walked over to the empty chair next to him and he didn't move or anything. 'Hello I'm Alice I heard about you do you want to become friends?'' I said to Corwin. He turned his head to me and said'' Corwin is my name but Lucy has told you already''. He got up from his table and grabbed my hand with his glove and I followed him to a ladder that goes up to the roof. We climbed up to see a dog up there with white clean fur. He walked over to him and pet him with his gloves, why was he wearing gloves? He put it down and leaned on a crate so I followed him and sat beside him.'' you wonder what my power well the truth is children all have unique powers in this school but my power is that anything I touch only dies so that why I wear these gloves they keep me from killing anybody'',he said a soft whisper.'' but why keep a secret from the other Corwin?'' I said to Corwin. He sigh and said'' I don't want them to fear me and the head master said to the others that I had my hands burnt and I don't want to show them''. He got up and said'' well can you tell me about your self''.'' My dad killed my mom and he killed himself and I'm here now'' I said to him. He turned his head to me and said'' I shall tell you about myself then''.
I was 6 years old and life was already miserable as it was for me. My mother was a prostitute and my father was part of a filthy gang and he would always come home drunk. Seemed like any other bad family but one thing I did back then was kill some robbers and after that I thought of killing more. My dad decided to let me join him but when I did bad I would be hit a with a board or a belt and my mother would sometimes join. At school I just seemed depressed as I was at home and kept a long distance from humanity. There was at least one thing that kept my humanity ''her''. Her name was Shelley and she was the kindest person that I met. She always was by my side for anything but she couldn't do anything when I came home. One night I heard yelling which was coming from my parents. My dad was angry that he got kicked out of the gang for the lack of coming there and my mom was making fun of him for it. Suddenly it turned into a fist fight and they were fighting on the floor in the kitchen. I crawled in the kitchen and grabbed a gun with two bullets in it. He turned his head and said'' Shoot her now''. I didn't know what to do and so I shot them both. The next morning I ran away and also found out my friend had died of a sad fate, death from a shot through the heart. I found an orphanage and they took me in but I was still not happy I was still filled with despair.
'' when there's despair theres hope I got that quote off a show'' I said to him. '' I need to go but before I do I must say you given me a little hope'', Corwin said. I went down stairs and saw Teresa and Anastasia 's room open. I walked by and saw them on the same bed embracing each other and I noticed the radio was on some song I didn't know. Teresa noticed me and said'' Have you learned how to knock Alice''. I scratched the back of my head and said'' Sorry about that I just came to say hi''. She sighed and said'' Well since your already here come on in''. I walked in and saw on Anastasia side of the room was pictures of Jellyfish, must be her favorite animal. On Teresa side was Lilium flowers on the wall with a picture of some kids I didn't know. Teresa patted on her bed and said'' sit here''. I walked over and sat by her. I turned my head to her and said'' can you tell me about yourselves?'' Teresa turned off the radio and put her glasses on and said'' before I was wearing Contacts I just think glasses fit me better''. '' so can I hear your stories?'' I said to them. She sighed and said''Ok but you will need to listen up''.
Most of the chapters will be learning about everyone's backstory so you can get a better picture about them and next is these guys then the twins.
