I tried to call Tiggy but his phone kept going to voicemail. So Rori and I decided to get dressed and go check on Tiggy ourselves. I hop in the shower, check the mirror make sure my waves are swimming and spinning, brush my teeth and begin to leave out of the bathroom. Approaching my room I get dressed, waiting for Rori, I decide to get something to eat. Walking into the kitchen I stumble into my dad, and he jokingly asks me, the color of the sky. My response was sarcastic, "green", I said. And suddenly the sky blue sky, turned a lime green color. I came up with something relating to science and the position of the solar system we were in, and my father bought it. Forgetting what I went in the kitchen for, I began to wonder, "is this it?", "are these my powers?". Frozen in time I began to think about the sky going back to normal and eventually it happened. This was weird, is all I could say!
Rori is ready so my focus switches back to finding Tiggy.
We walk two blocks from Allendale, to Wildwood, to knock on Tiggy's door. His mother answers and hugs me and Rori, and sends us to Tiggy's room. Obviously Tiggy is in there but he seems different. Eyes glued to his computer screen saying that he's "processing information", I look at Rori with the same look when she sneezed electricity. So I had to ask, "Tig what do you mean by, processing information?" He response followed, "Bro I couldn't tell you, I'm on this computer and I know everything that's going on, in everything place in the world. I just woke up this morning and began working on algorithms that could predict trafficking crimes before they happen."
Rori looks confused and says, "Babe, are you okay?" Tiggy turns to her and says, "I don't know babe, things seem different now."
Trying to break the ice I suggest we take a walk. This was successful, as we step outside and begin to walk, I just couldn't stop thinking about how I changed the sky earlier. And then suddenly there it was, a mirage of my earlier memory projected in front of everyone!
Frantic! I desperately look for a way out of the situation, so I jump into the mirage, and poof suddenly I'm home.
P.O.V Rori:
"TIGGY!! TIZIAH! TELL ME I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE SEEING THIS! Where did my brother go?! What just happened?!"
So many questions run through my mind as I stare in disbelief. Just thinking to myself, did my brother just get his powers?! Puzzled I try not to reveal what I can do, so I calm myself down. A couple minutes of silence pass, as Tiggy and I continue to walk. This has to be the most awkward walk ever. A loud silence looms over us I think to myself.
So many thoughts running through my mind I was blind to the fact of Tiggy being here. As I turn to him, he just says to me, "He's not the only one." Astonished I asked him what he meant. His response followed "This morning when I woke up I could see binary codes on every information outlet. I could hear the first responders radios and hear the cries of the people. I don't know what happened, but babe I'm different." At this moment I contemplated revealing my secret but I chose not to, at least until I learn more about it. I just look into his eyes and put on a fake smile and say "it's okay babe, I'm here with you!" Feeling bad I change the subject to a movie.
