Just another day is Redlands High, where the five childhood friends always meet. Here in the right, we have Raven and Hayley "the Fire-Manipulators" what Alexander calls them and they also have Super-Hearing. On the left, we have Kevin, Alexander, and Mason, each of them has different powers. Mason has the ability to understand all languages, read minds or access them by touching anyone, Paralysis-Shock, and he can mimic other powers. But on the other hand, Alexander has the ability to weaken someone's power, which is called " Power Augmentation", and telekinesis. Kevin can understand all languages, like Mason, and has the ability to memory manipulate anyone and to know something has happened, and Plant-Manipulation.

Alexander and Hayley have been dating for almost 6 months now. Mason has always been the best friend of everyone in the group, and Raven never liked Kevin nor did he like her. Raven and Hayley have been best friends since day one to the point that they are roommates. None of them have "parents" or "family", only ancestors who supposedly live in Santa Monica. Alexander is a lone wolf since the day they all met, and as you can imagine Mason and Kevin are best friends living in the dorm close to each other.

In Redlands High; Hayley's POV:

"I can't wait to graduate this shit hole. " I said. Mason seems dressed up today as if he is going to meet someone. I never saw Mason dressed up this attractively, I shouldn't even be thinking like that. For God's sake, I have a boyfriend. Stop looking Hayley, stop looking.
"Why are you so dressed up, Mason?" I asked without thinking. Once I asked, I knew I fucked up because Alexander is right beside me and he is a very jealous person.
" I have an interview for a new temporary job after the third period. " Mason said proudly. After Mason stopped talking, I smiled cause I was happy that he was trying to be a successful person.
"I am proud of you, Mason. " I said smiling. I felt a pressure on my arm, so I looked at Alexander and I saw his face, he was irate.
"Excuse us, please " Alexander said pulling me away to the janitor's room.

Raven's POV:

Did she actually leave me with them?
"Looks like everyone keeps on leaving you" Kevin said taunting. I always hated Kevin, he thinks he is cool just because he can memory manipulate someone. My eyes started turning red, because of how furious I am.
"Raven! Your eyes calm down!" Mason said trying to calm me down.
" This is not the time nor the place for you both to fight. " Mason said.
"Whatever, I have a class anyway I need to leave." I said as I left.
Kevin can sometimes piss me off to the fact I would be ready to kill him. I tried being friends with him but he was always rude to me and making fun of me so I decided to also hate him even though I didn't want to.

Kevin's POV:

When will she actually take the hint that I like her more than friends? I can't believe she is that stupid. "Bro, you need to stop pissing her off. You're not giving her any signals, she obviously doesn't understand." Mason said.
"I can't stop after all this time, she might think of it as a joke and never believe me. She needs to find out on her own or at least something that happens and makes us close." I said pensively.
I should've treated Raven better since day one but I don't know what lead me to show her all the hatred and no love at all. I hope one day Raven finds out and forgives me for the past 17 years.

Alexander's POV:

"Why did you do that?!" I said angrily.
"I..." Hayley tried to say something.
"SHUSH! You were flirting with him and laughing! How many times did I tell you to stop wearing such revealing clothes to school and flirt with other guys?!" I said irately.
"First of all, I wasn't flirting! Mason is my best friend since day one, your jealousy is blinding you! He has always been my best friend. Second of all you have no right to tell me what to wear and what to not wear, and finally, DON'T EVER SHOUT AT ME EVER AGAIN DO YOU UNDERSTAND?" Hayley said not knowing what is coming next.
I held her arm very tightly and started to weaken her powers, and I started throwing stuff at her using my telekinesis.
"STOP!" Hayley shouts but too weak. I unknowingly started throwing at her the janitor's mop causing her head to bleed and leaving marks on her body. "St..opp please" Hayley started begging weakly.
I carried her to my dorm through secret ways only I and the guys know. I started stitching her head up and left a note on the table and went for school before anyone notices anything suspicious.

Raven's and Hayley's apartment;

"Did anyone see Hayley? she kind of disappeared in school." Raven said.

"Last time, I saw her was when Alexander took her away in the morning," Mason said.

"Me too" Kevin said.

"Should we be worried?" Raven said.

"She is probably with Alexander since he isn't here as well," Mason said.

"Yeah, maybe you are right," Raven said.

Alexander's dorm:

"Where am I and why does my head hurt?" Hayley was thinking.

"Morning sunshine," Alexander said.

" You son of a bitch, you used your powers against me! You could've killed me!" Hayley said angrily.

"Oh, you remember. You made it easier for me to say. Right now you will get back to your apartment and you will not mention anything that happened, or simply I will come after you and the others." Alexander said threatening Hayley.

"but am weak they will notice," Hayley said.

" Say you used your powers in the woods to blow some steam off that's why you didn't attend school today," Alexander said.

" Now leave, and trust me if you say anything to a soul I will know. Think carefully before you speak." Alexander said.

Hayley left and went to her apartment.


Raven's and Hayley's apartment;

"Hayley!" Raven runs to her and hugs her.
"Ouch!" Hayley screamed out of pain.
" Are you okay?" They all asked.
" Yeah I was just blowing some steam off in the woods using my powers and I accidentally fell," Hayley said her voice cracking because of the pain.
" So you went to blow some steam?" Raven asked puzzled.
"Yeah," Hayley said tiredly.
"Since when do you even do that?" Raven asked. "Why are interrogating me, I want to go to bed I'm too weak," Hayley said.
Hayley tries to reach her room but faints. Mason carries Hayley to her room, he thought of reading her mind but he respected and trusted her.

What will happen next? Will Mason and Raven figure it out? Are there more secrets?
