Chapter 2: Part III

     I wake up and I'm not in my room. I'm in his bed? I trust him enough to know nothing happened last night. And plus, I don't drink alcohol so that's not a possibility. I walk back to my room and take a shower. My short black hair looks good and I feel good so naturally, everything is good. I sit on my bed looking at the necklace my parents gave me. There must be a reason why he gave me this necklace. Why did it have to be me? Why wasn't it my mom? It could have been because I was their firstborn but I highly doubt it. The necklace is blue and has a symbol on it. I don't know what it says but it's in another language. Maybe I can find out how he got it but it'll be tough. For now I put my thoughts aside and leave my room. I see everyone sitting on the table and I'm trying my best avoiding them. I really don't want to see them. Even after a shower , I still smell like his cologne. He smells pretty good but that's not the point ! I don't feel like talking to anybody right now. If anything I'll just leave the building and go to the store as quick as possible.
      In the hallways I bump into Reyna. Really intimidating but really pretty. She looks nice even though she gave me a death stare. At the door I see Astra practicing outside. She's in her astral form training. I walk away and I'm officially in the streets of Ascent. This time is different , though. I know for sure I won't get kidnapped.
      I cant forget the real reason I'm outside. The mission is to secure the junk food. I feel like if anybody saw me eating junk food I'd get grounded, or at least that's what my mom would do. The street are a little foggy but it's still a morning rush. I am greeted by a worker as I enter the store. I quickly grab all the goods and pay for them. I put my hood up just in case I see anybody from the team outside. I give out a sigh of relief and touch my necklace since it helps me calm down, it was different this time. I could feel it. It was gone. It was one of the only things I had left of my family so I had to retrace my steps. I went back to the market, back to the alley, back to the garden when I found Astra training in, I check everywhere! I couldn't find it. I was starting to feel hopeless and I went back to my room. I looked in the mirror. I started to think about what Ma would do. She used to say, "if something is lost, ask for help." I'm in no place to ask for help. I barely know anybody here. I just wanna go back home. I miss my brother. I miss everything. I regret touching that stupid rock. It ruined my whole life. I'm just a teenager now, with nowhere to go, no friends or family, I'm hopeless. I lay down looking outside the foggy distance. It looks like it's going to rain.
     I start to think about Gabriel. Mom never really cared for him as much as she cared for me. He was just a boy she found. He wasn't my real brother but it always felt like it was. I had always wanted someone to talk to and I got it. And now it's gone. I don't know what to do anymore.
      I heard knocking on the door and didn't respond. I pretended I was sleeping but that didn't stop whoever was trying to get in. "Come in!" I said in a loud tone. It was the girls, they asked if I had wanted to train with them. If I couldn't get my mind off of that necklace this would be a good distraction. All of the women were in their training outfits, I just wore leggings and a baggy shirt.
They were trying to help my figure out my abilities. I managed to figure out 3 of them, they were: Reading Minds, Freezing time for 10 minutes, The abilities to transfer your mind into someone else's body. We decided we would try and use my "ultimate ability"? I think that just means my best one. After a while of using my regular abilities I figured out my ultimate. I could turn into someone else for 27 minutes. The only weakness for it was that I'd have to wait a short period of time to use my other abilities again. Training was finally over after a few hours and we were all getting ready to eat some dinner.
