Supernaturals

Chapter 1

I'll start off by telling you the truth about me.
I have powers.
What kind of "powers"? Well, to be specific, I have telekinesis, speed, and healing, just to name a few. Now, your probably thinking: That's the coolest thing ever! Where can I get some? But actually, it's not. If the word gets out about me... Well let's just say that would be really bad. I can't trust anyone.
As for how did I got them... I don't know. I grew up in an orphanage, so I never knew my real parents. This place has been my home for as long as I can remember. But despite how long I've been here, I don't have any friends. All the other kids are either snotty and stuck up or just plain weird. Maybe it's better this way. After all, they would find out about me sooner or later.

It all started on an average Thursday morning.
I was walking to the cafeteria to eat lunch, when all of a sudden I tripped over someone's foot and onto the hard linoleum floor. Ouch. "What's your problem, nerd alert? Don't you know how to walk?" said a familiar voice. I rubbed my throbbing head and sat up. Glaring down at me was the face of Charlotte.
Charlotte is the bully of the orphanage. Her and her little posse insult and taunt basically anyone that gets in their way, but she's always had a little bit of a thing for hating on me.
"I said, don't you know how to walk, geek squad?" She repeated, clearly enjoying herself. I picked myself up off the floor and touched my nose -- it was bleeding a little. She smirked. "Look at pathetic little Nicky-poo, she can't even walk straight!" Her friends all burst into evil laughter. I could feel the anger bubbling up inside me already. "Shut up, Charlotte." I said. She turned to me. "Nicky, when I saw you for the first time, I thought you were a smart girl. But now I now that your just a pathetic wimp." Her friends burst into laughter again as she turned around and walked away.
I clenched my fists. I was not going to let her and her stupid little friends win. "Takes one to know one." I yelled at her. Charlotte suddenly stopped and turned around. "What did you say?" She said angrily. "I said, it takes one to know one." I said calmly, smirking at her. She walked over to me slowly, glaring furiously. Then, all of a sudden, she shoved me to the floor. I yelped out in pain as my foot bent at an unnatural angle. "Don't you ever speak to me that way again." She said narrowing her eyes. Then she gave me one last kick in the stomach and walked off.
When she was finally gone, I rolled onto my back, moaning in pain from my foot. I examined my ankle. It looked twisted, if not broken. "Great, just great." I muttered. "Need a hand?" Said someone standing over me. I jumped in surprise and looked up. The voice was coming from a tall boy with shaggy dirty blonde hair and warm brown eyes. He was actually kinda cute. "You scared me!" I exclaimed. He looked embarrassed. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sneak up in you like that. My name's Zach, by the way." He smiled. "I'm Nicky." I replied. "Need a hand?" he repeated, extending his hand. "Umm, okay." I said, letting him pull me up. I winced as I put weight on my injured ankle. "Oh my gosh." He said, staring at my ankle. "Yeah, Charlotte's a jerk." I said, rolling my eyes. "Do you want me to bring you to the nurse?" He asked his eyes full of concern. "No, no." I said, hastily. I could heal my leg in about thirty seconds, as soon as I was alone. Plus, I didn't want the nurse to discover anything... supernatural about me. "Umm, are you sure?" he said. Aww, he's so sweet. "Oh yeah, I'll be fine." I said. I don't know if he bought it or not but he seemed to let it go. "So when did you get here?" I asked him. "Last night." He said, gloomily. "I've lived here all my life." I said. There was a long awkward silence. "Umm, I gotta go..." He said. "Oh. Okay." I said, taking a scrap of paper out of my pocket, and scribbling my phone number onto it. "Here's my number." I said, handing him the paper. "Oh, thanks." He said smiling at me again. "Bye." he said, as he turned to go. "Bye." I said.
