I'm not who people think I am. Sure, I might be shy, nerdy, and quiet. But I have a secret. And when I'm needed, my friend and I sure pack a punch. Ya, my best friend is from outer space. And sure, we might not look like the perfect team. But when it matters most, we get the job done. My name is Rain Fry, her name is Techno, and together

We are RainT.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Come on Rain! We are going to be late. And does Techno have to watch TV at 5 in the morning?!?" My Aunt yells at me.

 I give Techno a scolding look as I brush my long black hair. 

"It's not my fault! You humans have to sleep. I don't have to! So when you are sleeping, I have nothing to do!" She complained. 

I roll my eyes and finish with my hair. "I will never understand you Techno. Never will and never have." I laugh.

 We go down to my mom's art studio. My mom is an artist. You see, we live in Long View, in St. Carbon. It's a small town, right by the ocean.

It's just me and my Aunt. And Techno. If you haven't guessed yet, I'm not normal.

 I'm what you call, Turbo-charged. Its an intense type of energy that is very rare. My body can somehow produce Turbo energy. My Aunt and I have no idea how. After a while (8 hours to be exact) I go critical.

 Because my body is constantly making the energy, it needs a place to put it.

 That is when Techno comes in. 

She is an alien! 

I can't live without her and she can't live without me. My Turbo energy is what charges her. And her alien tech can control my energy. If I were to go critical, let's just say it would be a lot of me to clean up.

"See you after school!" Techno and I yell at my Aunt. 

"I hate the fact that an alien goes to school with you. It makes my nerves." She yells back. 

Techno laughed. My aunt is still getting used to Techno living with us.

 I remember the day I met her. I was about to go critical when Techno saved my life. Now we are best friends. 

"You aunt still doesn't trust me. " She mumbled. 

"No, she trusts you T, it's just that she doesn't know what to think. She will turn around." I sigh. 

"Now get into my bag, before you get seen. You know what will happen then" 

I feel like I'm scolding a child. She rolled her eye(yes she has one eye) and got into my bag.

We got to school and I automatically got noticed by my friends. They are a crazy bunch. 

Rachel, my #1 friend is the craziest one of them all. She is about 5'6" with red hair. She has so many freckles. 

I'm about 5'1'' my self. I think I'm the shortest one of all my friends. 

Rachel is always happy to see me, and by looking at her bright eyes, you would never be able to tell what is really going on.

 Her dad is the rudest, stupid, and most horrible person I have ever been forced to meet. Every other night, he gets drunk just to go home and hurts Rachel.

 Her mom died years ago, so it's just her and her dad.

 I want to help her. To go full-on Turbo on his sorry butt and put him in his place. Or at least call the cops, but Rach will never let me help. 

She is afraid that if he found out she told me, she would get it much worse.

Then we have Doc. 

Quirky but yet super smart. Yes, he likes to tickle me. Yes, he never gets serious until it comes to his girlfriend, Rachel. 

Black hair and light blue eyes, I think he is the most down to earth guy I have ever met. He is always happy and I have no idea why. He is like a brother to me.

Then we have  Owen Perseus Patric Sidney. That's his full name. He so serious all the time.

 I can never tell when he is joking or when he is not. Nothing much to tell about him. Other than he is super kind and sweet.

  Blond hair, about 6'2'', basketball star, football jock, and yet he hangs out with me.

"So, what do you think? Me, you, movie tonight?" Owen said. 

I blinked, not knowing what to say.

 'Just say yes!' I heard Techno say in my head. 

Along with the link, we can talk to each other trough our minds. I have liked Owen for a long time now, but I had not been on a date sense, well, ever!

 "Ok, I guess. What time?" I asked quietly. "Is 7 OK?" "Ya" "Cool. See you in Homeroom Rain."

 And with that, he walked to class, leaving me, Rachel, and Doc in the hallway. "Looks like someone has a date tonight!" Doc said, teasing me. 

"Ya. Looks like it." I said. 'Looks like it.' Techno said.

 And with that, we went to class.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The day went on and the bell rang, telling us to go to lunch. 

I found my friends at out lunch table and started to them. Before I got to them, a sudden pain surged through my stomach. 

Crap. 

'We haven't linked sense two weeks ago! Its 3:05. Going critical.' I heard Techno say.

Crap!

 Owen waved me over to him, but when he saw me clutching my stomach, a worried look spread across his face. He was about to walk over to me, but I ran out the door to the courtyard.

 I had to get away from the school. I ran as fast as I could. I turned to see if Owen followed me, but he was gone.

 I was standing in the middle of the football field now. No one was around and my body was killing me. Literally. 

"No one is around, just do it!" I yelled at Tech. I saw everything flash blue and the pain went away.

I looked down and lucky me, Tech left me in my street clothes. 

When she first linked with me, I was in a turbo-full-body suit. 

(Just like the one in the TV series 'Max Steel ;) )

 And now Tech has found a ton of cool turbo modes to mess around with. I sighed and started to walk away from the field. 

'Ok, that was close. We need to be careful. We almost got caught.' Tech scolded me. 

I rolled my eyes and laughed. "OK this time, you are right. Maybe after school, we can go on a little flight."

As we got to the school, we saw Owen at the entrance of the courtyard, mouth wide open."You OK?" I asked. 

He said nothing, but started to walk away slowly. 

'He saw us?! I-How? I took a thermal scan of the whole field and didn't find anyone!'

 'Tech, its fine. He is bound to find out anyway.' I said, snapping her out of her little rant. 

I put my hand out and try to tough Owen's shoulder, but he backed away again. 

I looked at him questioning and he finally spoke the 3 words I was hoping never to hear.

"What are you?"
