If you had to choose, what inhuman power would you pick? Many people would say they would want the power to fly, super strength, telepathy, speed, or invisibility, as well as control elements, like wind, fire, water, or selectivity. But unlike others, Emi has one power that she wants, the power to smile. Emi can't smile and hasn't smiled since middle school. She doesn't remember how or why she smiles. Although she wants the power to smile, Emi already has one power. Since the day she was unable to smile, Emi gained the power to read smiles, and with that skill, she's able to tell the truth from lies and lies from the truth. But a heavy burden lies on her, she had set rules on herself, banning herself from ever speaking out any of this information. But, what would happen if she's forced to speak? What will a secluded loner, who can't smile, do when an opportunity to recover her past open when a transfer student suddenly arrives?

Six high school students looks like anyone else acts like anyone else but are capable of things no one else is. They learnt from a young age no one that means NO ONE can know about their powers even their parents and other siblings. It brings out the true friends and those who just want to use you. In the end, what do you do when your closest friend betrays you? This is the story as they try to keep their biggest darkest secret of what they are capable of and as they discover they're not the only ones like them... I am not very good at trigger warnings before individual chapters but there is mention of blood, cold abuse and parents divorcing. (But read at your own risk in case I mention something else. I am working on rewriting this story and when I do there will be the trigger warnings in the correct places.) (small teaser.) No one sees me. I am a ghost. I brush against the wooden fence. No one will believe it was me who disappeared into a fence and appeared on the other side of school. I stare at my brother. He made eye contact with me, confirming my suspicions. We both saw it. Whoever that was is like us. "Did you just see that?" I ask "You're that person my brother and I saw," He says. Oh no... Why then? "Wait! You're-" Completed just editing. (Don't be too harsh please)
