Gifted Children

Chapter 5

Isabelle and Colin both sprinted to the direction of which they heard the crash. They finally found the room that it came from. The locker room.

"Wait. Should I go in there?" Isabelle asked.

"Do you actually care?" Colin said sarcastically.

"Nope"

"Well let's go then." Colin pushed open the door to not only see Nick but also Jake, who stood there, half terrified-half amused.

"What the hell happened here?" Colin questioned the two guys.

"Literally all we did was fist bump. Just a fist bump. But then all of the sudden some purple lightning surrounded him and he flew backward!" Jake explained.

"Purple lightning........ Wait. Jake, weren't your eyes purple?" Isabelle realized.

"Yeah, they were," Jake answered

"I think we might have a little more something coursing through our veins than some brightly colored eyes," Nick said.

"Jesus Christ. What are we gonna do?" Colin asked.

"Meeting. At the MUK." Isabelle said.

"Sounds good," Nick said.

Isabelle and Colin texted the twins and Stella, and they all met up after school.

"Alright. So, we found out our eyes might have something to do with some sort of ability. But we all have different abilities, except the twins." Isabelle explained.

"We already know Jake apparently has purple lightning power so......" Colin jokingly said, making everyone laugh.

Nick said, "Everyone take out your contacts."

Everyone did as Nick said, and the group noticed how electric all of their eyes were.

"Jesus." Nick said as he looked in a mirror, seeing his neon blue irises glow in the sunlight.

"At least your eyes aren't pitch black," Colin said with a laugh

Jake comforted Colin by saying, "They actually look kinda cool."

"Well, now that we can get off of the topic of how cool our eyes look, we need to figure out a way to test a way to find out what abilities we have," Isabelle said.

"I think I know a spot," Nick said.

"Don't you always?" Isabelle teased Nick.

"Come on! Let's go!" Colin said excitedly.
