When I got home I hopped of my bike and went inside. I walked into the kitchen and saw dinner already set on the table and I looked at my parents with a surprised look "Why are you eating dinner without me?" My parents exchanged a look with each other.

"Well........" There was a long pause when my mom said that then she continued " Well me and your dad were thinking that you like ran away because you never just disappear like that."

"Why do you think I would run away, I just went on a walk. I even said that to you!"

"We just....."

"Don't *we just* me! I don't care what you think! You know nothing is the matter with me because I tell you everything!" In an instant I knew what I said was a lie because I haven't told them about my power.

"Well, there is dinner in the fridge if you want it." Mom said with her teeth clenched. I nodded and walked over to the fridge and opened it. I saw my favorite meal in there I clenched my fist and took it out. I put it on a plate and I walked over to the microwave and put it in. Then I said "You just watch out Mom and Dad, because you might get what you wish for and at that second the microwave beeped and I took my food out and stalked into my room.

I was downstair in the basement watching my favorite T.V show of all time "Dr. Who" when I heard a knock on the sliding door and I looked over and saw it was Brook, I paused the show and opened the sliding saying "How do you know where I live?"

"I've been watching you closer then you think." She paused " Anyways what show is this?"

"Dr. Who." She smiled

"I love Dr. Who!!" I invited her in and we settled in and finished the episode. When it was done she said "Now that I've seen it again we can get down to business."

"What type of Business?" I quoted my fingers when I said Business.

"Powers." She said simply. I nodded even though I was still very confused.

"Why do we have to work with our powers?" I said

"We need to train you to get used to using them so that we can fight the final boss."

"What Boss?"

"The Boss." She said as if it cleared it all up. Instead of using words words I shook my head slowly "Do you even have a single idea of why we were giving powers?" I shook my head and then she said "Well then I think we need to start from the beginning" she paused and took a breath then said " Well a long time ago there was a prophecy foretelling that four teenagers would be given powers to defeat the boss. They were also told that there will be a fifth who would have to decide where she would put her powers. To the dark side or the good side." I nodded " Well we have two of us and Flora is the third. I think I know who the fourth is and I also know who the fifth is." As she said the fifth she looked at me with a meaningful glance and I relized that the "Fifth" she was referring to was me.
