"Shake my hand?" Nina asked.

"Yeah." I said.

"W-why?" Mira asked

"Alright I'mma be straight with you three... I have a power that can let me see who is a potential conduit. You two... Are potential conduits." I said pointing at them.

"What?" Nina asked, "What about?"

"No... Mila isn't a conduit." I said.

"You know... If anyone other than you told me this... I would've punched him in the face..." Nina said.

"But it's me sooo?" I began. She sighed and walked up to me.

"What will shaking my hand do?" She asked.

"Well... I'm hoping to get a new power... But it also might activate your powers." I said.

"Well... Either I get powers or I get arrested in six months." She said and held her hand towards me.

"Here goes nothing." I said and grabbed her hand. In an instant I began to feel a vast amount of cold run up my arm. My body tensed up and I saw ice form between us. I heard Mira and Mila back away as I began to fade into darkness.

Mira and I have been inseparable when we were kids. Apparently mom died giving birth to me and Dad wasn't really happy about that. He always looked at me like I'm a disgrace for being mom's daughter. He never payed attention to me. Around the age of ten I started to not care. At first with him not looking at me... Now I really don't see a point in anything.

Mira... Mira however never did. She always gave me credit for some of the chores when she did them. She one day cleaned the house and said I did it so he would at least acknowledge me. Seeing her try like that... Man can't help but care for the girl...

Then dad decided to remarry and we found ourselves with a brother. I didn't really plan to interact with him, but when your new brother gets you gifts that you always want... How can you not thank him? Was it Mira? Probably asked for her help and seeing him put an effort to me, a girl who didn't even care to greet him when we first met. I wasn't a total bitch, but I was obviously not interested in socializing.

Hell he's done more for me and Mira than my own father... Especially me. Especially when he fought some stalker to protect me. It was the only time I needed to be protected. I didn't thank him for it, but... I couldn't help but visit him while he slept... Had to thank him somehow. Honestly I kinda wished he woke up. He saved Mira from fanatic guys, but I couldn't help but imagine him protecting me. I don't care if he is a bio terrorist. He's the first guy to care about me, and I love him.

I woke up from the floor. I felt something soft on my head. My vision focused and saw Mila allowing me to lay on her lap.
