We've been driving for about an hour now.. Been silent for most of the drive. I was too shook up about it all. Trying to break the tension and not randomly go off topic on what's going on right now I ask,
"So, are th-there anymore like you?"
"You mean Mutants? Yes, yes there is." She said in a huff clearly offended.
"I didn't me-mean that in a racist type thing or an-an-anything." I tried to fix the conversation which clearly wasn't working.
"So..." I wandered what to say. I couldn't handle another hour or so of silence. "How did you get your powers?"
"Why are you so suddenly interested in my life!?" She yelled "You've never talked to me before in your whole worthless life! Now you want to know my life story!?"
"Jeez, I-I'm sorry... I get chatty when I'm nervous!" I tried to fix the conversation again.
"Fine, we've got nothing to do for the next couple of hours" Jasmine replies. "An organization started since world war two kidnapped me along with everyone else at our school at birth and tested on us and sets us go a little while later. But not the same as we entered. But you probably guessed the rest! Because you're a nerd! It was probably in one of those shows you watch! But the organisation has some sort of ability to force our parents to send us to this school that they run!"
"Sounds a bit like Stranger Th-Things!" I replied.
"Told you!" Jasmine answered. "But you're not one of us! You're the only one without powers! As you know you came to this school later!"
"Yeah, I came to the sch-school in year 8 because my foster parents died and this was the only school that had a dorm in my area. But I thought you didn't e-even pay attention to my existence?" I questioned.
"You are right! But now I have to so they don't take you!" She said. I gulped.
"How do you re-remember all this?" I asked.
"The news isn't all bullshit!" She giggles "My powers extend my mind's abilities! Mind reading, telekinesis and the best memory known to man kind! But no one else has my abilities! Everyone has a different ability. I don't know that for sure! That is what I can remember!"
"Wow...." I sit there speechless.
