Summary: Phil's parents are the famous super heros - Fire and Ice. However Phil hasen't inherited they're power and gets ready for torment as he heads to super school where he meets the charming Dan Howell. (Inspired by Sky High)

Phil's POV*

It's not fair. 

It's really not fair.

Everyone else ... every one fucking else has one and I don't. It's so not fair. 

This is how I spent every morning, but before I get into any detail I think I should start from the beginning. 

Okay, so you see there are two types of people in this world. The normal human beings and the super people. My mum and dad, Fire and Ice also known as Sarah and Michael Lester, are one of the most famous super heroes in the magic world. When they both became partners they found a way to control three elements. When they put their powers together they could control water, air and fire.

The fire was originally my dad's only power and my mum controlled ice. Combined, they could create water and over time somehow created the power to control the wind and air around them. It was a rare thing that only some partners may develop. Anyway, they are now extremely famous in the magic world and guess what.

I was born without a power. My friends and some of my family always tell me I'm unique and my power might come to me one day but I don't see it happening. I have been home schooled up until now. I'm 17 years old, turning 18 this year and even though they say they aren't I know that my mother and father are disappointed I didn't get a power. Most super kids get their powers at sixteen which means I haven't had one for nearly two years and it's really disappointing.

Unfortunately Mum and Dad said they had to send me to super school for my last year and I'm not looking forward to it. My father has taught me combat and I'm pretty decent at it. If I didn't have a power then I was determined to be able to defend myself. Unfortunately I don't think it will help me though because other's will have their power to help them win combat fights and all I'll have is my fighting skill.

So ... today was the day I went to super school and I was terrified. My best friend, Chris goes to super school but we usually hang out when he gets back. He tells me it's lots of fun and he has lots of friends in school too but he always says I'm his favourite which is reassuring although I never know if it's the absolutely true or not. He tells me he's ecstatic about me coming up to the school and I should sit with him and his mates. Hopefully they are all like him, I'm sure his friends will be fine ... until they find out I'm powerless. *sigh*

I yelled goodbye to Mum and Dad after their very long lecture of trying to make friends and about how proud they are of me and I might discover my power (if I have one that is). With that I ran out the door, bag strap hung low over my shoulder. I haven't been to school since fourth year in human secondary school. Every super kid goes to normal school until they're 16 and that's when they go to super school for their last two years of school.

Ive been home schooled for two years, through the summer that I was supposed to get my power it didn't come so my Dad wanted to home school me until I had my Amazing power to 'show off' to everyone at school. He gave me special combat training but after two years I think they're finally starting to realize I may never have one. It's sort of embarrassing too, considering I'm the son of Fire and Ice, the most famous super hero duo in the world! A lot of people expect a lot from me.

"Hey Phil!" Chris called and I grinned at him. He always managed to bring my mood up. Chris had the power of super speed and has beat me in many pointless races. "Race you to the bus stop?" He suggested cheekily.
