Hi guys! Before we start, I'd like to thank SEOKJHSS for being my first follower, MIDNIGHTHOBI for being my first commenter, and Lance_kun for being my first voter.Thank you so much!

Now, on with the chapter.

"John? Are you there?" I called out. 

Silence.

Where was he? 

I went to my room and picked up my phone. I pressed his name, and held the phone to my ear. 

My room door suddenly opened.

" Everly?" John said. I was so startled I threw the phone at him, my eyes glowing. He caught it with one hand.

"WHERE WERE YOU?!??!" I yelled, also waking Seraphina from the living room. 

"Sandwich shop." He said. I rolled my eyes. Numerous memories of John scarfing down sandwiches popped up in my head.

"Of course." I said, sarcastically. He grinned.

"You ready for your first day tomorrow?" I smiled and nodded.

"What happened?" Seraphina said, rubbing sleep out of her eyes as she appeared in the doorway.

>>>

I smiled as soon as I saw how huge the school was. I gripped John's hand tighter. He turned and grinned.

"It's kinda ironic how you've never been in a high school and I've been in two." He whispered the last part.

"Why are you whispering?" I whispered back. He shrugged. We met up with Seraphina in the hallway and went to class, Seraphina saying that she's only coming because it's my first day.

But I wondered why some of the other students were throwing weird looks at John.

>>>

"Okay, class, we've got a new student." The teacher said. I stepped foward.

"Hi! My name is Everly Doe and I'm also the twin sister of one of the students here. You might know him, his name is John." I caught a few snickers from that, though I'm not sure why.

>>>

"So, Everly. What's your ability?" A blue haired, green eyed girl asked, sneering a bit. 

"Well, why should I tell you?" I said.

\\Flashback\\

"Hi, Everly! What's your ability?"

"Oh! It's Sound Manipulation!" 

"Cool! Can you show it to me?" 

"U-uh I'm not really sure about that...it's really hard to control it sometimes.."

"Aw, come on! Please?"  

"Uh...o-okay..." 

\\End of flashback\\

I really didn't like how that turned out.

"Oh~are you powerless like your cripple brother?" She jeered. I whipped my head around to look at John. I gave him a look that said 'POWERLESS?!?!?!?'

"Uh, no. In fact my brother isn't powerl-" I was RUDELY interrupted by my VERY FOOLISH brother's hand. That girl just stared.

"So? What's your ability?" She asked. 

"Again, why should I tell you? I don't even know your name." I retorted. She scoffed a little.

"For your information, my name is ELAINE, strongest healer of Wellston." I almost laughed at that.

"Your ability isn't very offensive, ELAINE. What would happen if I attacked you? Are you positive you'll be able to heal the wounds afterward?" I asked.

"Well, DUH, probably." I smirked a little. Then the bell rang. I abruptly stood up, took my binder and dragged my brother out.

>>>

"JOHN!!! ARE YOU FREAKING STUPID!!!!" I shouted. He winced a bit. I took a deep breath.

"I-is this because of that incident at New B-bostin?" I asked, gently. He flinched harder.

"Oh...John..." I said. Why was he doing this to himself? He suddenly grabbed my hand and said, turning away from me, "Let's get to class already."

"H-huh? But it isn't even class time yet.." I reluctantly said.

>>>

Aaaand here I thought that school would be fun. I mean, it is fun, but the kids here are so unfriendly! Like in middle school, everyone said hi on my first day. Even though most of them just asked what my ability was. And when I told them, they asked me to demonstrate, so I did, then chaos erupted. But at least they said hello. Everything is so tense here. People are giving me smirks and sneers and glares. Seriously, what is their problem? I suddenly bump into a shoulder, my binder slipping from my arms. I bend down to pick it up, then stand back up again.

"Sorry." I said to a blonde haired, blue eyed person. The blue haired guy next to him told him (out loud) "Hey, isn't that the new student who is the cripple's sister?" The other boy nodded.

"Well, at least she carries a proper binder, unlike her brother." He said. Then he shrugged and went off. But I'm not sure if I imagined it, but I think I saw a malicious sneer as he turned away.

Suddenly, I felt someone push me. I fell to the ground with a thud. I immediately pushed myself up.

"Um, excuse me?" I said to a gray haired, purple eyed, VERY RUDE boy.

"Hah! So you're the cripple's sister! You only went down with one push!" He laughed. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, John's fist smashes into his face.

"Shut it, Gavin!" He yelled.

"Ah, John, no! Not again!" I protested. But instead, OF COURSE chaos erupted anyway. "Gavin's" eyes started glowing and he kicked my brother right in the stomach. All I can do is watch as my brother gets beaten up in front of me. 

I don't want to useless anymore.

I don't want to watch people stand up for my sake while I do nothing!

My ability kicked in, and my eyes start to glow. I ran over, covered John's ears with my hands and screamed, my ability making it louder.

"STOP!" 

Everyone was paralyzed in the hallway. The silence was only broken by Gavin's moaning, as blood dripped from his ear to the ground. I immediately rush over.

"A-ah! Are you okay?" I asked, frantically. John un-freezed and rushed over to help.

>>>

"Will he be okay?" I asked. Mr. Darren (Doc) nodded, frustration evident on his face as there were already four other kids in the Infirmary. John clutched my hand tighter, knowing exactly what I was thinking. 

"Don't worry, Everly. You're just not used to this yet." All I can feel right now is chaos. This is so weird. Why is this happening? This never happened when I was younger...I feel terrible. My feelings are churning right now. But then I look over and see John. His eyes are out of focus. I know I'm only burdening him. I need to get my mind right. I need to get stronger. I may have lots of power, but it really is useless if I'm not stronger that it. 

John's POV
Everly... are you really okay right now? Abruptly, an image of a green haired girl popped up in my head. 

Her....

I felt something in my hand. I snapped back into focus and looked down at my hand to see that Everly had dropped some earplugs in it. I looked at her.

She was smiling, not a hint of fear in those blue eyes.
