The One That Can't be Missed

Chapter6

"Then who?" I asked

"Listen, can't talk," he said then started mumbling something to himself.

"DAD!" I said, then he turned around and looked me in the eye.

"Just clean this mess up, with your powers,"

When he said that it just sounded wrong, he never talked to me about me about my powers. Something's wrong here.

"Why?" I question as he paces

"Just do what I tell you,"

"But dad I dont know how to use my powers," I lied

"Imagine the house just like it was, point at the living room, and presto,"

"um…ok," I close my eyes with a fist extended out. Then I imagine my living room. The walls are yellow. The brown leather couch in front of the plasma TV. A clean chimney to side. Then I open my fist same time as my eyes. Then purple magic flows out of my hands. And everything slowly puts itself into place. No more finger prints.

"Dad?"

"What?"

"Why did I do that?"

"I'm going to work?" ugh he clearly ignored my question.

"Dad?" I asked as he headed out the door. That's it.

"Did Vanessa do this?" he stopped and turned around.

"How do you know about Vanessa?"

"I heard you talking to her,"

*********

We sat down on the couch.

"Listen, Vanessa was a family friend," my dad started to explain, " she wasn't good, and so we stopped hanging out with her, then she went crazy end of story,"

"oh," I said then he got up and went to work. How did she call him, if she was at a mental hospital? I got up and went to go get something to eat from the kitchen. I looked through the fridge to make me a sandwich. I got a call from Anzhelika.

"Hey Hey Hey," I said

"Hey so remember how you were telling me about Vanessa right?"

"Ya," I said through a bite.

"I researched her and you have to come over and see what's on my lap top,"

"Why?"

"Just come and-" the line cut. Suddenly everything was a little too quiet. Like something or someone should pop out and kill me. I quickly ran to my room, grabbed my car keys and my phone then ran outside and locked the front door on my way out. I listen to my favourite radio station 107.9

When I got there Anzhelika opened the door for me. As if she's been waiting for me by the window all day. I walked in and followed her to her room.

"So what do you have to tell me," I said jumping her purple bed. She had purple walls and a drawer that was next to the door and was filled with make up. I grabbed her grey kitty. He had blue eyes adorable.

"This," she grabbed her lap top from the corner pink seat. She opened it up. I stopped petting the kitty and set him down on the floor. I grabbed the laptop and looked at what was on it. A website that said Vanessa Monerae. My last name. Then I started to read the article it was about my family and our lives. I made a weird face. OK that's creepy someone I don't know is stalking me?

"You think that's weird look at this," she closed the page and written on her wallpaper was 'Stop Searching'.

"How did that get on your screen?"
