"Haelynn! " mom called from downstairs "time to get up sweetie !" I rolled over onto my side . " ok mom " I called back I sighed not wanting to get up today was my last day without my abilities I'd turn 18 tomorrow .
I eventually gave in and climbed out of bed . I quickly got dressed putting on a white blouse and a white knee -length skirt followed bye a white mini jacket and finally white flats then I curled my white hair that went down to the center of my back
You see everyone was born with white hair and white eyes you remain that way until you get your color . I quickly glanced at myself in the mirror before grabbing my white book bag and walking downstairs . "Morning mom " I said walking into the kitchen
"Morning honey " she said looking at me her wispy pink hair falling to her shoulders
She rolled over to me in her wheelchair . And I sat down on a chair so she could give me a kiss on the cheek .My mother lost feeling in both of her legs when she was a soldier
So she was sent home and now she takes care of me . My father died in a battle with the"defects "
My mother kissed my cheek gently before looking into my eyes her light pink eyes filled with sadness "I'm gonna miss you baby " she said as she burst into tears " hey I'm not leaving yet mom " I said trying to comfort her .Just then a horn honked and I had to leave for school I sighed worst possible timing " I'll see you tonight mom I said giving her a quick kiss on the cheek "I love you " I said before standing up to leave " I love you too "
She said as I reached the door I turned and blew her a kiss before leaving .Ok I thought last day of school .
Just then I climbed up the steps and immediately slumped down into the first empty seat . The way to school was always quiet but not today everyone of my classmates was excited to finally be getting their powers .See all children that are born on the same day are put into the same class which is usually six boys and six girls .everyone was excited to get their powers but not me because I learned through my parents that power leads to pain my mother lost her legs and my father his life .
I don't exactly want to die like the rest of these idiots . My thoughts came to an immediate hault as we pulled up to school
I climbed off like I normally would and landed like I normally would too right in my face . I was born with two left feet my mother says I'm always falling downMy classmates always had the same reactions some laughed some rolled their eyes and some just continued walking .
I got up and dusted my self off just as the bell rang . Great I'll be late for class today too I said to myself why was this always happening to me . I zoned out in most of my classes not hearing a single word my teacher was saying . The day flew by fast and I was already on the bus ride home .
Wow I thought today went by faster then I thought which means I'll be leaving mom soon too . How is she going to take care of herself ? The woman can't even stand so how is she going to cook food or ... I cut my own thoughts short with another thought hold on mom is a pink she has telekinesis so she can just use that to cook she'll be fine .
Just then the bus stopped once again bringing my thought process to a hault. I climbed off and walked to the front door scared to find my mother crying I opened the door slowly walking into the kitchen I turned on the light only to find my mom sitting at the table a cake sat in front of her.
"SURPRISE !! " my mom shouted I was shocked "mom what's this ?" I asked looking at her and my grandma who sat next to her
" we'll since we can't celebrate your birthday with you tomorrow I called grandma and decided to celebrate today "
I could've cried I was so happy
I looked at mom and then at my grandma who lit the candles with a bit of her fire (she is a red btw ) "thank you so much you guys "I said smiling the biggest smile after that we had some cake and talked for a while before finally deciding to get some sleep .I sat in my bed trying desperately to fall asleep but one question stuck in my mind not letting me get even an ounce of sleep
what color am I ??(Ok thanks for reading this was a pretty long chapter with a total of 829 words )
