"Do not let anybody see these...ever!" My mother said sternly nealing down behind a parked car wincing slightly every time she heard my father shout or hit something in his drunken state. She had placed a mysterious looking hourglass necklace around both mine and my brothers necks. They actually had sand in them but the sand was...moving? It was looping around in the glass. Moving in the shape that resembled the infinite symbol. Once they rested against our chests Tanners turned bright red like fire and then went back to sand making his young eyes widen as his necklace light up overtaking the darkness of the street. Mine twitched a bit then went back to normal. My mothers proud smile for my brothers necklace turned into a confused frown when she saw what mine did. A loud crash erupted behind us and my fathers screams followed. My mom glanced around and kissed both our foreheads whispering sorry over and over before she hopped in the car and pulled away from the street. Leaving her children behind and never once looking back. That was the last time I have ever seen my mother.
