Shifter: The Story of a Girl With Powers

Chapter 1

I woke up to the beeping noise of my alarm clock. Ugh. It's Monday. I roll out of bed and put my hair in a ponytail. I look at my clock. Crap, I only have 10 minutes to get to school. Why didn't my brother wake me up? I walk into my brother's room, he's still sleeping.

"Hey Ocean, wake up." I say as I shake him, he doesn't move.

'Well, time to whack him with a pillow' I think. I grab a pillow.

"Ocean! We only have 10 minutes to get to school!" I whack him with the pillow.

"Ow." Ocean says.

"Finally." I say.

"What'd you whack me with a pillow for?!"

"Well, we have 10 minutes to get to school and you weren't waking up."

"Oh."

I start walking out of the room. "Oh, and by the way, there's no time for breakfast."

As I walk out I hear him groan. I run down the stairs, grab my backpack, put my shoes on, and wait for Ocean by the door. I look at the time. It's 8:15.

"Ocean! We now only have 5 minutes to get to school! Hurry up!"

"I'm coming!" he runs down the stairs. I open the door and walk outside.

"Let's go." he walks out the door, we start walking towards school.

"We should probably run. We don't want to be late."

"Yeah, probably. I'll race ya!" He takes off running. I started running after him. He should know by now that him getting a head start isn't going to work, I'm still gonna catch up to him. I got to school first. He got to school a few seconds later.

"You're getting faster." I mentioned.

"Yeah, I've been practicing"

We walked inside. The hallways were nearly empty. Crap, we are late. I start walking to class.

"See you after school!" I shout behind me. I walk into class and sit down, just before the bell rings.

"Galaxy, you're late" the teacher, Ms.Brown says.

"No, I'm not. I got here before the bell rang"

"I'll let it slide, but this is the 8th time you've been late this year and it's only October, if you're late again, I'll have to give you detention."

I sighed. "Okay. Sorry."

Ms.Brown started teaching us about a math formula. The bell rang. Class was over. This day was the same as everyday, go to class, be bored, sit alone at lunch, be bored in some more classes. It was after lunch, as I was walking down the hallway, when I heard something in the vents, I decided to think nothing of it and go to class. Ah, yes. English class. My favorite, and I'm not being sarcastic. English is the one class where you can just let your thoughts flow and write down your ideas for stories. I sat down at my desk.

"Good afternoon class" Ms. Elizabeth said. No, her last name isn't Elizabeth, she just wants us to call her by her first name. She started talking about one of our homework assignments.

"For this week's homework, you are going to be writing about what you would do if you had powers and couldn't tell anyone"

Well, that's interesting. How am I going to write that, without making it seem like I've had experience with that sort of thing.

A/N: Hey guys! I decided to post chapter 1 while waiting for Minecraft to load. Anyways, thanks for reading this shitty story!
