Chanita teleported us to the front of a door at a place I hadn't been to before.
I was feeling dizzy, it was like I was squeezed and released that same second but I knew it was something I'll get used to along the line. The place where we were was dark and I was sure entering that room wouldn't be any better.

Chanita gave two gentle knocks on the door and used her hand to signal that I should follow her in. She turned the door knob and slid in. I followed her in and the first thing I came in contact with were cobwebs.
I dusted them off of my face and I was almost immediately knocked out with the pungent smell that filled the entire room.

I stood beside Chanita, extremely anxious of what I could do that I didn't know.
Suddenly, I heard a loud, thick voice.

"That day, you survived because of the one that resides in you. You're weak but the one in you is the strongest of them all and it only will be able to save us. You will evolve, you don't have a choice"

I immediately felt weird, like I was loosing control of myself and yet, in charge!
Chanita was staring at me and suddenly, we heard a loud clap as the top brick hit the the floor few feet away from us.

"Quick, run!"
Chanita screamed loudly, her eyes had unhidden fear in them and I knew something was up. I started dashing to the front door and Chanita was right behind me, I could feel her hot, quick breaths on my neck. Then a really really big brick just as we were about to reach the front landed and the force that came from it threw both me and Chanita almost to the other end. We landed on the floor that was warm from the friction our body.

"We're gonna die"
Chanita said fearfully, her pretty face had been bruised really bad around her right eye brow region and her blood was trickling down.

"Teleport us outta here"
I said as I stood up and ran over to meet her.

"I can't, my powers don't work in this room, no one's powers does. That's why I teleported us to the front door and not in"

Just then, rumblings that felt like 3 terrible earthquakes combined happened. Everywhere was falling apart. The walls were crumbling like a sheet of paper squeezed. The floor was already cracked and some parts were already deep, deep holes. Even if anyone had tried to rescue us from the school. They couldn't make it in.

Then snap! The wall just above us fell. At that moment, everything seemed to cease. I felt like a million volt of energy ran through me hands. I felt like I was in control. Like I was the one that made plants live and bear fruits, like the one whom the planet revolved around but yet I felt like, I wasn't me.

Just as it was about to land and crush me and Chanita to death, a blue shield made of a force field came out of my hands and protected us. The brick fell on it, broke it very tiny bits and flew in all directions. I looked down and saw the cracks, it was splitting the room into two. I felt myself being elevated into the air and I moved to lift Chanita up who was staring up at me, extremely baffled. I lifted her up and immediately, the ground beneath us gave way. Infact, the entire room had no ground.

I flew slowly to the blockade and a really long and sharp wave that was blue and very bright flew came out of my hand and splited the break into two. I saw a huge, metal dish that was really huge. I lifted it up and although, it was metres away from me, I felt the weight on my fingers. I lifted it up and used it to separate what the block that was blocking us from the front door.

I flew with Chanita who was holding me like her life depended on it to the door that I crumpled and threw away with almost no problem at all and outside was almost the entire school some mourning silently, others awaiting us expectantly.
I barely landed safely with Chanita before I faded away.
