"Five?
"Lexa?" We both shared a smile as we pulled each other in for a long, overdue hug. "Where have you been?" He asked me in disbelief.
"It's kind of a long story," I said with a shrug. "Basically, I was sent back to my past, which is technicall...

My hands gripped the top of the chair and pulled it out, so I could take a seat for breakfast. Bree and Zara sat on both sides of me, while the three boys sat across from us. At the end of the table, there was an empty share where Eleanor used to sit, but no one seemed to notice her absence but me.
Leo chuckled and made eye contact with everyone around the table. "This feels like a weird family reunion," he remarked. I laughed softly at the thought of how the Hargreeves must feel every time they meet up after being separated for years. It was quite ironic actually.
"I feel like we should all go around the table and reveal what our new powers are," Henry said with a simple shrug. I held back the urge to roll my eyes at his ridiculous statement.
"For Chrissake, Hen, this isn't an AA meeting," Leo spoke up again. The blonde boy took notice of Henry's sudden frown, and shrugged coolly as he added, "But I am curious to know about everyone's abilities." When Leo met my eyes, I smiled slightly. He didn't show it much, but I knew that he cared about his friend. It was nice to know that he was more than jokes and remarks. "I'll take the wheel first," Leo announced. He snapped his fingers together and caused a spark, which ignited a fire in his palm. His arrogance was humorous, yet impressive. Leo turned his attention towards me. "Blondie, whatcha got?"
"Intangibility," I replied simply.
Leo's eyes widened a bit as his eyebrows rose slightly. "Why don't you give us a little demonstration. Ya know, for the people who don't know what that big word means.." His eyes glanced left and then right. I smirked, not only at his stupidity but his obviousness.
"Hold out your hand," I instructed Leo. The blonde did as he was told and I held up my arm as well, phasing my hand through his.
Leo's brown eyes widened to the size of golf balls as he quickly pulled his arm back and held his hand to his chest. "Holy shit!" He exclaimed. "Give me a damn warning next time you try to pull that witchcraft on me again."
"Don't be so dramatic," I chuckled.
Leo shook his head in disagreement. "I'm serious, Blondie. That shit felt weird," he said. "Can anyone else do something less creepy than Casper the Ghost here?" I huffed and rolled my eyes.
"Oh, I can!" Bree spoke up in excitement. She held her hand up in the air. When she opened her palm, she created a shield with air molecules that she was able to control and manipulate. As soon as the shield appeared, it dispersed back into the air. "I'm still trying to get the hang of it."
Leo clapped and gave her a look that basically said, 'not bad.' He then turned to Zara and was about to say something, but she beat him to it. "Before you purposely call me another ethnicity, I'll just tell you that I have X-ray vision."
"Kinky," Leo remarked, sending her a sly wink.
Zara shot daggers at him with her eyes as she replied emotionlessly, "I can only see existing objects."
