Stronger than the Boys {1}

Chapter Nine - Very Unstable

I sat cross legged listening to the comotion going on outside. Why couldn't I train with them? This had been going on for days now. My birthday was tomorrow. Jeremy was okay with it because his brothers were here now. I just don't want to come out of my room until its all over. Sadly I have to eat food. So I can't just sit in here all day. Damn you stomach and needing energy to survive.

I normaly go get food while everyone is outside or sleeping. I would rather not bump into anyone. Oh yea, and to top it all off, Jeremy 'borrowed' my favorite comb. And I haven't gotten it back. That was like my good luck charm and he knew it. God, why iws my life so messed up now! Its all the werewolves fault. I would just love to kick one of their asses right now!

I stood up with a scowl imprinted onto my face and stomped out of my room. Jeremy opened his door and watched me stomp down the stairs, "Raven, where are you going?" I didn't feel like I needed to answer him. I was too damn angry and hungry right now. I walked into the kitchen and swung open the fridge.

"Raven what are you doing?" I heard my mother ask me. I didn't care. I needed food in my stomach now or I was going to shrivel up and die. Seriously. Well I might be over exagerating, just a little bit...

I grabbed the three pieces of pizza that were left over from last night, they were probably meant for me anyways, and literally chucked them onto a plate and into the mircowave. That stupid thing was too slow at heating up my food. When I finally got my food I took a huge bite and turned to face my mom. She wasn't alone either. Jeremy's mom was there and two girls whom I've never met before. There mother seemed to be with them as well.

I smiled at them with my mouth full of food and said, 'Hello." It came out more muffled then I would have liked, but whatever. I don't wake up everyday to impress people who look like these two bimbo's. One had blonde hair that anyone could tell was dyed and the other had black hair. Both with spit ends. They also both had deep blue eyes, and they were werewolves.

"Raven, this is Tiffany and Tera." Tiffany being the one with blonde hair, Tera with black. They both tried to smile at me but it came out as a grimace. "And their mother Amy." She gave me a smile but it wasn't a true smile. "Amy is also Jay's mother."

My eyes narrowed at her. She had the same color of hair as Jay, but he must have gotten his eyes from his dad. Why am I doing this? I took another piece of my pizza and sat with them beside my mother. I continued to eat while they carried on with their conversation. I wasn't paying attention to what they were saying, because honestly I didn't care. "Isn't that right Rave?" My mother elbowed me when I didn't answer.

"Huh?" Was my genious answer.

"You and Jeremy are like twins." She raised her eye brows at me.

I slowly nodded, "Yea, why?" My mother shrugged and gave me a look that said 'explain'. "We have the same birthday and pretty much like the same gifts. Plus our wings are the same just oposite colors."

"What are your gifts?" Amy asked with actual intrest in me. That's a change in attitude.

"So far I have strenght and, uh.. how shall I word this? Sonic scream?" I looked at my mom then back to Amy, "Like Black Canary from the Justice League. I don't know if you understand that."

She smiled sweetly, "No, I know what your talking about."

I smiled back, "But by tomorrow I'll have another one. Same with Jeremy."

"Actually," Jeremy's voice interupted from behind me. "Mine came early. Today actually."

I narrowed my eyes at him, "Why didn't you tell me?"

He looked down, "You wouldn't answer the door when I came their this morning."

"Oh," I looked at my hands on my lap. "Sorry."

He brought me into a hug, "I'm the one who should be apologizing." I gave him a confused look, "Your comb.. uh... I acedentally... I can vaporize... it's like gone forever... so sorry."

My eyes widened, "Couldn't you try your gift on something else!"

 He smiled sheepily at me, "I didn't realize that I could do it till after you're comb, my door knob and acouple of my t-shirts were gone."

"Oh," I hugged him. "That's alright I guess." Truthfully, I was upset that my lucky comb was gone. But I can always get another one, I guess.

Jeremy and I left the ladies int the kitchen and went to the living room. We just kinda sat on the couch with me leaning onto his chest. I just felt so out of place right now. I couldn't train. I couldn't fly. Oh, I wish I could fly. That would make me such more relaxed right now. If only I could just fly somewhere...

I closed my eyes and inhaled the fresh sent of hair that was running past my face. Wow, it really feels like I'm flying.. or rather falling. My eyes snapped open, oh shit.

.......

I screamed, because that's all I could think of what to do in a moment like this. All I could really do was scream as I fell towards the earth. More specifically, towards the little islad that I was on five seconds ago. I realized that I was probably screaming way too laud and probably burst everyone's ear drums by now, but I was falling to my death!

Okay, Raven get a hold of yourself! How did you get up here? You thought of flying.. okay so think of sitting back on your porch. I closed my eyes jsut as I started to make out the little figures in the back yard that were looking up at me. Sitting done on my back porch...

......

"Raven?" My dads surprised voice came from in front of me.

My eyes snapped open and I looked at my suroundings. I was seated on our back porch with everyone looking at me weirdly. I looked towards the sky to where I had just been then I broke out into a smile, "OH MY GOD!!! THAT WAS THE COOLEST THING EVER!!!" I yelled as loud as I could without hurting anyones ears.

My dad raised an eye brow at me, "What was the coolest thing ever?"

I pointed to the sky, "I just though about flying and the next thing I knew I was up there." I took a couple of deep breaths, "And then I thought about sitting on the porch, and guess what! Now I'm here!!!"

"Damn, why does she get a cool one like teleporting!" Charles complained from the middle of the back yard.

I want to slap him in the face. He, he, he...

I consentrated really hard on standing in front of him. Then I was standing in front of him. I slapped him across the face and before he could react I was back on the porch in front of my dad looking at him like nothing had happened.

"Ow!" Charles held his hand to his cheek where I had slapped him, "Why me?" He through his hands up in fruistration. "I'm always the one who gets beat up in this family!"

I giggled, "That's because you have the cockiest attitude."

"Do not!"
