"How is beating me up 100 times suppose to "awaken" my powers?"
I yelled in a sort of worrisome voice for myself.

"Don't worry bro! I know what I'm doing." One of them yelled back. One of the Stephens teleported behind me and went for a punch. I turned around to quickly block the punch and return the favor.

The only way I know a Stephen has teleported near me is when I hear a swoosh sound. But it doesn't matter where they teleport because they're coming at me all at once. I don't know what to do, but if this keeps up I might get more than a few broken bones.

"Stephen I'm really not comfortable with this anymore!" I manage to say with all the fists hitting my face.
I got no reply, I didn't know which Stephen was the real Stephen but none of the cloned Stephens showed any expressions on their faces. I was getting annoyed and angry, Because my enemy can teleport and I have no way of fighting back.

I felt a sudden feeling in me, but I didn't worry about it much because of how furious I was.
I threw punches left and right and none of them would land. I wanted this practice to be over, I couldn't endure the pain anymore and I was getting sick of it.

I put all my strength into my next punch and just hoped that something would happen when I hit one of them. And gladly something did happen, like 7 of the clones went flying off within  making contact with my fist.

This was the moment when I finally unlocked my powers and showed my friends what I could do. I though. Instead something else happened, I wasn't myself; all I could think of at the time was how great this power was and the energy rushing inside me.

"Haha! I knew my plan would work! Didn't I tell you not to worry?" I heard a Stephen say.

I found the original. I made a great jump towards him and attempted a attack, but missed.

"Wo calm dow bro pract s ove!" I heard one of them say, but I couldn't understand what they said. I think this power was getting to my head,

all I heard clearly was the ringing sound you get sometimes in your ears.

"Jed y cal down!" I heard a female mumble, I think it was Mindy. My vision was blurry, I couldn't hear correctly, and I couldn't speak. Whatever's happening to me definitely has something to do with my powers bursting out of me.

All I did was attack the Stephens, I tried stopping myself but I couldn't find the strength to do so. I noticed something, the bright glow from Stephen's eyes was becoming dim and weak. He was running out of energy, I knew that for sure.

You need to relax your mind and body
Focus on breathing and don't move, it'll help.

I heard a voice say inside my head, I weirdly found the voice to sound very calmly and persistent. I didn't hesitate to follow its instructions. I focused my breathing and stood still; I did this to what I could tell was probably more then five minutes.
I felt so much better after doing that.

But my small moment of peace was quickly interrupted by a sudden crash from the ceiling. Something landed right between the small distance Stephen managed to make when I stopped my rampaging.

As my eyes adjusted to everything happening, I tried to make out the silhouette hidden in the dust clouding. It was a person with wings half the length of a plane, and as the dust disappeared some more I noticed it was a girl; with red-ish orange hair and glowing dark green eyes.

After looking in the direction of the Stephens, she then turned to me. When our eyes made contact I saw something beyond her eyes, something I could not yet describe.

She was another leslin.
