Special.

Chapter 1

I watch as everyone around me talks. My friends are the only ones who bother to talk to me. It's because I'm special, or at least, that's what I'm told by Melinda.

Melinda is our village fortune teller. She took me in after my parents threw me out.

*Flashback*

I'm six. I'm in my room with a very angry dad yelling at me. I have no idea what I did wrong. I start to cry and that's when it happens. IT appears. IT is a small flame.

The flame appears in front of my dad to protect me. He yells something else and backs up. I'm terrified, but I'm thankful he's not yelling anymore. He runs out and talks to my mom. I can still near them. "She's a demon! That enchantress was right! She's special!" My mom agrees with him and they come upstairs to me.

"Sweetie," my mother says with her kindest voice, "we're gonna take you someplace to get better alright?" I nod and say, "Yes mommy!" She smiles at me.

After that things went downhill. They took me to the nearest barracks where knights were and told them about my powers. The knights took me from my parents and taught me how to ride horse back. They then took me to the king. The king almost had me sentenced to death for witchery before suddenly, out of nowhere Melinda came out.

She offered to take me to train me to whorship the king and to control my powers. Which, because of all the things going on, was going crazy. Flames would appear in any room I walked in. She took me to the small town I live in now and have for 6 years.

*Flashback Done*

As I'm done remembering, my best friend, May, walks up. "Hey, anything wrong?" she asks. She sounds only a little concern because I always start remembering my past when I'm alone. Plus, she thinks the opposite of what is actually happening.

She thinks I don't have a power and that I feel lonely, which is a little true. I just say I'm fine and she lets it slide. And sees some poor kid and tries to control him.

You see in our kingdom there are types of powers you can have, some more powerful than others. There are the jocks, pretty girls, nice girls, sassy kids, nerds, emos, and finally me. I don't fit in any of these groups. I'm the girl who probably is the most powerful in the school, but no one knows it. They ALL think I'm normal, even the teachers. Just lovely.

Anyways, jocks have super strength or speed or sometimes both. Pretty girls can charm people by talking and looking, well pretty. Nice girls are healers. Sassy kids have mind controlling powers. Nerds are just super smart and can plan battle strategies perfectly. Emos are fighters that can summon any weapons to their hands at their command, which is a little terrifying.

Anyways, May is a sassy. My other mind controlling friend, Rose, sees May and groans. They get into a argument about responsibility in their powers and my other friends, Twlya, Ben, Violet, and Ella walk up.

Ben and Violet can summon weapons even though they aren't really emo, which is why they're at our table. Ella is a fierce healer which makes her an outcast, even though she's still really nice. Twlya is a rebel. She comes and sits with us to show the jocks that, even though she's a nerd, she isn't just some face in a book.

May and Rose are here because they are the only two mind controllers in our school. I start up a conversation with Twyla and am half-way through eating my lunch when I hear a loud bang and windows shattering.
