Oh Brother -book one- *under revision*

Party

I showered and got changed. I slipped on my dress and a pair of yellow flats. I brush my hair and leave it down to dry messy. I sit on my bed for as long as I could. I didn't want to see them. I didn't want to speak to them. I know they didn't mean any of it, they didn't know, but...

I stand up and walk towards the door. What are you doing? The voices scream. They don't want to see you. You hurt innocent people. They weren't innocent. I mentally glare at the voice and walk out of my room.

"why didn't you tell us?" Jason asked angerly when I entered the sitting room they were all in.

"don't yell at her-" dick tried scolding but I interrupted him, equally as angry.

"I tried!" I yelled. "I told them to leave and they didn't listen. I tried having one of you kick them out but all the help I got was being told how bad I was treating my guest."

"Pax. take a breath." Bruce said calmly. "who were the girls?"

"the one I hurt was Katie. I met her when we were 5. she was scared and alone. it was the first time social services took her from her drug addict mom. I tried comforting her, telling her it would be ok but when I told her 'look on the bright side, at least you have someone who wants you, not many people have that, I know I don't she' snapped at me. she pushed me down, called me a dirty open and walked away. since then I've had to put up with her constantly trying to one-up me, hurt me.  if I was put in a new foster place and she wasn't she'd be livid and rub it in my face that they didn't want me when I was sent back. she's one of the reasons I have violent written in big red letters on my file." I explained.

"But you're not violent," Tim interjected.

"Katie knows how to push the right buttons. She a manipulator. She needs a group of people around her that are less than her. Not only to boost her up but to play bodyguard. Today was the first time a actually got to hit her. As for Jenny and June, they're just entitled brats who's brattiness is enlarged by Katie." The boys nod.

"I'm so sorry this even happened. We should have been there. I know I heard rumors, and I threatened the people I heard the. From but that wasn't enough I guess." Dick looked down in shame."

"What would you have done if I told you? What could you have done? Punch out three small girls? It's only specially acceptable for me to do that." I chuckle.

"Miss. Pax, please describe your real gusts please." Alfred asked.

"Well there will be. Two of them, Danny a black haired blue eyed boy and his sister Ella with white hair and green eyes. They actually like me for who I am." I smiled looking at my hands in my lap.

"Hey, so do we, and we're all gonna work on being better brothers," Tim said swatting my shoulder.

"We've never had a sister before so we're still learning." Jason shrugged.

"Yeah, well I'm still learning too. Never had siblings, let alone brothers like you guys."  We all sat silently enjoying the moment we all just had, Bruce smiling proudly, when suddenly the doorbell rang.

"All go get that." Alfred said walking out and maybe two minutes later there was a gust of wind and papers went flying. I was tossed into the air and caught by this laughing red head who just appeared in the room. I let out a scream of fear.

"West put her down!" Jason glared.

"What? I'm just meeting the birthday girl." He grinned. Mean while I was wiggling trying to get free.

"Let go!" I beg pushing agents him. He lets me go and I run over to Dick trying to catch my breath.

"You know if you had walked like a normal person I would have warned you." Barbra shook her head as her and a boy carrying wrapped boxes and bags walked in. "Don't mind him, he's just dumb."
