<???>

I opened the door, revealing my father's study now a mess. I sigh as I begin to pick things from off the ground. I look over to find my father proudest accomplishment scattered on the floor.

"Oh no no no no! Those idiot's must of done this , I better tell father. " I rise off the floor dusting myself off before rushing back to the other room. "Sir..."

"What is it boy ,did you deal with the problem..." I kneel letting my head slightly fall. "Actually sir... t-they uh got ,t-they uh..." My voice slightly falters.

"Speak boy, I grow impatient." He shouts standing from his chair. I take a breath before continuing. "Sir they escaped, and they destroyed your prized machine."

He walks towards me raising my head. I immediately feel a burning sensation on my cheek, from his large hand meeting my face. "You have failed me, do you know that..."

"Yes, sir..." I sigh knowing he was right, I couldn't do anything right always making mistakes. "Do you know if the machine was used before it was destroyed..." I nod 'no' and he sighs.

"Did you see the people who destroyed it!" He shouted ,obviously annoyed with my lack of positive responses. Finally I could give a somewhat good awnser. "Uh... yes three boys, around my age."

"Around your age huh... do you know what that means?" 'That there the same age as me duh. ' I think to myself but say nothing. "Boy, you will attend, high school and watch these boys, if you see anything suspicious report back to me, got it."

"Yes, sir..." I stand and walk into the other room continuing to pick up the pieces of the machine, my hair falling on my face. "School... whatever I must not get distracted, I must pay attention to the job at hand ."

<Laurence>

"Mr.Zhval can you please awnser the question?" My teacher , Ms. Zoey, asked as I  realized that I wasn't paying attention for the third time today. "Uh, three..."

The class erupts in laughter besides Dante and Travis. Ms.Zoey sighs while shaking her head. "Mr.Zhval, this is biology... we were talking about the structure of cells."I look down, embarrassed while the rest of the class continues the lesson.

Not to long after, the bell rings and everyone rushes out the door. I try to leave with Dante and Travis, but am stopped by Ms.Zoey ."Excuse me Mr.Zhval, may I speak to you before your lunchtime. "

I sigh waving off my friends and walking back towards Ms.Zoey. "Yes ma'am?" She smiles worry present in her eyes. "Are you alright Laurence, your usually the most involved student, but today you seemed out of it."

"Uh ,yea I'm fine, just uh tired yea!" I say because I honestly don't know what's wrong with me. "Alright but if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask." I nod and leave the classroom making my way to the cafeteria.

I continue my walk down the hallway, no one in sight , and the cafeteria straight ahead.  Dante and Travis standing right beside the entrance. "Hey guys I agh- "

I take a step back ,a large amount of pain shooting through my body. "Laurence?" I look up as two blurred figures approach my body. I stumble before falling on my back increasing my pain. "Aagh!"

"Dante, go get the nurse, I'll try to help him as much as I can. Laurence, stay with me buddy." The image continues to disappear as I lose sight and the world fades.Now all I could hear was a voice.

"Laurence! No no ,ugh! Laurence! "

<Travis>

Laurence had passed out as Dante had run off to get the nurse. My dad taught me a little about treating patients, so I have to hope it'll help.

I placed a hand on his forehead before immediately removing it, a burning feeling reaching my hand. "Ahh ,what the name of Irene?" I look to see my hand showing the symptoms of a third-degree burn my skin beginning to blister.

I take my bottled water and my gym shirt wetting it then putting it on his forehead. I watched in awe as steam came from his head, but the towel seemed to be helping.

I look around hoping to see Dante or the nurse but I see no one but a boy with a blue hoodie standing at the end of the hallway. "Hey, can you please help my friend, I don't know what to do."

He walks over kneeling towards Laurence placing his hand on his head. A blue aura appears around his hand as frost falls from his finger tips to Laurence, causing the heat to immediately disappear. "Ugh, Travis?"

"Laurence! You have to tell me how you did that ,that was-" I look up to find that the strange boy had disappeared, leaving nothing behind.

Dante then comes running with the nurse in tow."Travis, sorry it took so long, is Laurence alright!" I nod and stand explaining the situation to the nurse, leaving out the strange boy, his powers and Laurence's weird temperature increase.

"Alright, Mr.Vulcrum thank you ,I'll see too it that Mr.Zhval is safe. In the meantime Mr.Shadow can you carry Mr.Zhval to my office." He nods and I was about to warn him about the heat ,but he was fine.

"Also ma'am, could you help with this." I ask showing her my blistering red hand. She gasps and nods as we walk to her office.
"If I may ask, what happened to you Mr.Vulcrum? "

What was I going to say, I touched my friends face and got burned, I'd sound crazy! "Uh, an accident ,yea ha ha-"

She glances at me an unsure smile on her face. " Alright, come on boy's ." We continue down the hallway as kids fill the hallway ,but I couldn't shake the feeling we where being watched.
