We walk among you

Revelations

"Relax, you didn't do anything wrong," mom chuckled at my face "or did you?"

"I didn't do anything wrong!" I yelled, getting defensive.

"Gosh, calm down will ya, you look like you're gonna cry soon," she teased.

"No I'm not!" I argued.

"Alright, alright, just sit will you?"

"What do you wanna talk about? You gonna tell me about what I am? Or about where we came from?" I asked hopefully.

Seeing her face darken, I nervously said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to probe. Forget I ever said that."

Shaking her head, she reassured me, "No, that's what I wanted to talk about. Its time for you to know."

"Really?!" I could barely contain my excitement.

"Yeah, I think you're ready to know everything, including your powers and abilities, so pay attention." she said, yet there's a hard look on her face.

Nodding my head, I leaned forward eagerly. 'Finally,' I thought, 'now I'll have all my questions answered.'

"Let me start at the beginning, then. To answer the question you've wanting to know for a long time you, are not a human."

"Then... What am I?" I asked, although I knew the answer, I just needed her to confirm it.

"An alien," she simply said.

Nodding my head, I gestured for her to continue. "Hmm, you seem to be taking this awfully well, especially for someone your age." she says.

"Hey, I'm more mature than you think, in fact, I am as mature and intelligent as a normal adult." I say arrogantly.

"Someone's cocky huh," she says, grinning.

"I'm not arrogant, I'm just honest as being humble means concealing how good I really am and is dishonest." I smirk.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. So where was I? Yeah, you were from a planet Drax, but not both your parents were Draxians. Your father was from another planet, where he was a ruling elder. This planet, is called Saxus, and the people living there have inhuman abilities that are bestowed to them by the planet. Each person's abilities differ, and it may range from telepathy, telekinesis to elemental manipulation, immunity to superficial injuries, to healing, night vision to flight and teleportation. There are so many that the possibilities of abilities seems endless. The amount of abilities a person gets depends on them, how many abilities can they handle or what abilities seems to match their personality and character well.

"Drax, where your mother came from, was slightly different. Each person is connected to an animal, and a symbol of that animal will burn through their forearm, around the age 16-20, depending on when their animals think they're ready. Animals vary according to rank and power, the strongest are the Dragons possessed by the ruling class, and it is said that should anyone who isn't part of the royal family is bestowed with the dragon, they would be paired with the child of the ruler, closet to their age, regardless of gender." she paused, looking at me.

"Uh huh, carry on please," I urged.
