Maybe if we could find Storm shell, we could manage to get something rolling," Bonnie said. "What makes you say that?."• •"I fought another champion on Preview." Taylor explained. "When I... beat him, I got his artifact; Vendetta which helped me control some of the victims affected by Echidna" "You believe combining your abilities with Storm shell may help us restore the victims here?," Henry asked."Yeah.

Sam arrived in a large presinct filled with strange creature all roaming around in uniforms, each wearing an " L " shaped badge. " Home sweet home." A red haird girl in a white jacket bumped into Sam, causing her to drop her bowl filled with blueberries. " My bad , Dude. " She said. " Look like you made a mess. " " I got it. " the girl told him. " Descensus horum fructuum converterent. " She chanted. The bowl levitated into her hands and the blueberries soon followed. " There. Good as new . " " Hey , Liv. " An asain teenager appeared out of nowhere. " You coming or not ? Scott's already trying to freeload off Maxine. Again . " " Relax, Jill. I was just on my way to the Broth. Let's go. " The two girls left as Sam was taking in the diversity of so many folklore. " Mr. Ethol ?" A second voice called out to him. He turned around to find a green skinned girl with a third eye on her forehead. " Um ... yes. " That's eye ... I mean me. " Sam stumbled. " Don;t worry. I get that
Did you ever feel different? Did you feel hated or rejected by the rest of the world because of it? Say it had nothing to do with the kind of person you have become. What if it was because of something about you? Something that you did not choose to be. What if you do not want to change your unique abilities, even though they may help you stop an evil alien force from destroying humanity? Oops, sorry if I scared you. I tend to space out and introduce suspense too soon. I forgot to introduce myself… My name is Madelyn North, but everyone I know calls me Maddie. I was born in Seattle, Washington, the worst place for a teenage girl to fit in when she is different from everyone else. Everyone in my old school believed in stereotypes
I did not know what to think about this strange invitation with no return address on it. Or why my mother and my best friends treated me like a monster. Or even why were there no doctors or nurses in this supposed hospital. All I knew was I could not stay in this horrible hospital. I went back to my room and looked for spare clothes, but I could not find any.“Crap. How can I get out of here with no clothes and no money?” I said to myself.But then I thought, Wait. Mom always brings an extra nurse outfit in her bag. Under the circumstances, could not say I felt guilty about stealing her clothes.I opened the gym bag my mom left in the room and found extra green scrubs.Luckily, Mom and I wear almost the same size.
They say when you die, you see your whole life pass by before your eyes, but that did not happen. While I was recovering from the blackout, I had strange visions about me and five other teenagers I have never met. Each of us had peculiar powers. One dude in sunglasses was blasting three robots that looked like they came out of a sci-fi movie with two dark laser beams from his hands. Another bald man sliced five other robots in half using only his arms. But both arms glowed purple. The visions got more puzzling. I envisioned a young Hispanic girl with gorgeous black hair, wearing a red jacket. She created a force field resembling ruby quartz. The force field protected a small group of people from a massive cloud of debris caused by the acti
I ’m not sure why I remembered the image of the star now, but the pin the man wore looked almost identical to the one I saw when I probed one of the guard’s minds. After I had finished my flashback, I pulled out my mom’s letter and the envelope from Zen Academy. On the back, I saw a thin button. I pressed it and a blue virtual map appeared before me. “Whoa,” I whispered. My jaw stayed open for about twenty seconds. Would I finally get some answers? I found Mom’s car and drove toward the railroad. The virtual envelope showed me the way. I figured it might be the only place I would be safe from this Vanity crap. Forty-five minutes later, I arrived at my destination, an old, a
Itook a break from probing Eric’s mind and tried my luck on the girl with the ruby-coated hand.Her name turned out to be Adrian Rodriguez from El Paso, Texas. She lived with her mom, a factory worker. Adrian’s Mom was demanding so Adrian kept busy trying to earn her mom’s approval.She thought earning a spot on her school’s varsity basketball team as a sophomore would be a good start. Even though she was still a sophomore, she qualified for the varsity team and was close to playing state.But the night her team was going to play for the regional championship, she experienced “the change” and transformed into a hybrid. It lasted two hours. Naturally, the doctors were puzzled.The school officials thought Adrian was on drugs prior to the game due to her sudden coma, so they kicked her off the team and suspended her for a week. The following week, she found out her team lost 35 to 18 because
The entire crowd of students gasped at the sight of the gigantic hologram towering above us. The mere virtual presence of this unusual woman kept us in suspense. “I am Chancellor Emola Thorne,” the hologram said. “Here at Zen Academy, my faculty and I have made it our objective to seek out each of you based on your exceptional abilities. We know many of you come from households and cities that do not understand your capabilities, or the reason you have frightening gifts. Some of you may have been exploited or hunted by those closest to you because of this. But rest assured, you are safe in this environment. You’ll learn to use these abilities for the betterment of yourselves and all mankind.” I didn’t know why, but I felt safe listening to her talk. I felt enchanted by her words, but reluctant to trust her. I looked at the other students gazing at her as if she was their savior. “My security drones shall escort you to your dorms,” the chancellor s
