Chapter 3- Magic

"Wait, wait. What?" Alexander said looking at the teachers like they were high,"Are you saying we're, like, magic or something?"

"More than that my child."The Professer said,"You, we, are not even human. We are much, much greater. We are strong, we are fast, we can see, smell, hear, feel and do pretty much everything better than humans..."

"WHAT!?!?"shouted Esme,"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE'RE NOT HUMAN?!?"

"Honey, by not human he means not human."Mrs.Petal said nodding.

"I know that." Esme sighed,"But do you seriously expect us to believe you?"

"Yes, yes of course we do"All the teachers said at once.

Esme and most of the other kids gave confused or slightly worried glances at each other but Dexter, Ash and I could hardly keep the grins off our faces. The possiblity of us being something more than human, something magical, something with powers. Something amazing. I was completely overwhelmed. I've always believed I was something more than just a girl, I would've screamed and cried, possibly punched a hole in the wall if they had been joking. But they weren't.

"Here drink this, it will disolve the mist that disguises us as humans."Mr.Coal said while he handed out little vials of purple liquid,"It will take a few minutes and will hurt more than you could ever imagine.This is called your transition."

"You'll feel like a huge building falling on you while you get stabbed repeatitivly in the chest and are lying in a pool of acid."Mrs.Petal said grinning at us.

The other kids and I were in big wooden chairs with metal straps around our wrists and ankles to "prevent us from lashing out and destroying things while we're consumed in pain." as the teachers put it.

"Here's to nothing."Dexter said as he gulped down the liquid. He moaned, started to say something that sounded like"This better be...." and then fainted as soon as one drop was in his mouth. I was next and I honestly couldn't wait. I wanted to be magical so bad I would seriously kill myself if it meant I could join the world of the "make-believe". I eagerly sipped the mysterious potion and felt like everything was cut off. No sound, smell, sight, no anything. I couldn't even breath. The only thing I could think was"Pain? What pain?". Before it hit, I felt myself gasp then hunch over. I felt like caving in on myself. Mrs.Petal was not quite right about the pain, it was worse than she ever could've described. I screamed, at least I think I did, I couldn't hear anything so I don't know. I needed to get out of that chair, hit a wall, run away, do something, anything. I pulled against the restraints shrieking like a banshee, begging for someone to kill me, to stop the pain. I struggled and screamed for what felt like hours before I remembered what was happening, who was around me that I could've hurt. As soon as I remembered I sat back, relaxed in the pain and pasted a smile on my face. Before I knew it the pain was gone, my senses came back and I was seeing the world in a whole new light.

I could see everything, I could hear everything, I could smell everything, I could hear the others screaming and crying. Mrs.Petal stuck in her face right in mine then shouted,"She's awake!!!!!" I could see every pore in her skin, every hair. Her breath smelt like flowers, I could hear her breathing. I knew she was waiting for me to say something but I was completely distracted by everything going on. It took me a second to relise but Mrs.Petal and the other teachers who were kneeling around me looked different just slightly, they were inhumanly beautiful, perfect in every way and their eyes were slightly different colours, more unnatural. Mr.Coals eyes were pure, pitch black, Mrs.Petals eyes were the same colour as the leaves on a flower and Mrs.Crystals were the colour of crystals. I was amazed. The Professers eyes stayed the same though. Thier beautiful and perfect looks made me wonder if I looked like that too. I touched my skin and it was rock solid. I started laughing because all that was making me think of vampires but my life is not a vampire story.
