Chapter Fourteen: "Practice Makes Perfect"

As morning rolled by, everyone opened their sleepy eyes to a new day. They had fallen asleep on the sofa again. They would have to remember to sleep in their actual beds soon. Gemini smiled as she shook them each by turn gently, "Guys wake up, It's a brand new day!" Her cheerfulness was contagious— or she was just using her powers— and soon they were all up and about.

"Uhh, guys?" There was a call from somewhere everyone looked around. The call came again.

"It's Leo!" Aries said suddenly, they all realized she was right, "Where are you?"

"I-I don't know, it's- it's dark and I'm really squashed." Leo's voice came out as small and scared. The others looked at each other and felt panic slowly rise through them.

"Stop that!" Aries said turning to Gemini suddenly.

"I'm not doing anything!" Gemini shot back, although she knew that her panic was increasing the others as well. There was a sudden bang from the kitchen. They all rushed in but saw nobody. The bang came again, this time it was coming from the inside of a cupboard. Scorpio silently walked up and slowly unlocked the cupboard door and opened it. As soon as he did this Leo came tumbling out. Just before he hit the ground he disappeared.

"Where— did he go?" Aries asked slowly, everyone looked around, confused.

"Here!" They all ran to the living room, from where the voice was coming from. Leo stood there, dazed and confused. He looked like he was about to fall over. Aquarius rushed over and held him up. Pisces tilted his head slightly inspecting Leo,

"I think you have discovered your powers." He said finally. Leo looked at his hands, which let off a few electrifying sparks.

"No shit."

After their interesting morning, they continued their day as though it was any normal day, although by now they were kind of used to it. They had breakfast, Taurus cooking instead today, making the simple eggs and bacon, much to Scorpio's delight. They simply lounged around afterward, apart from Virgo, who insisted on dusting off every single speck of dust in his sight.

There was a loud cry from Virgo but nobody reacted, he did this every time he saw a dust bunny. "WHO FORGOT TO FLUSH! AND AFTER YOU TOOK A HUGE DUMP TOO!" Everyone immediately turned to Leo and Aquarius, who sat and giggled alongside Gemini and Aries.

"It wasn't us!" They chorused at once.

"I know it was you, I can read your mind remember?" Cancer whispered to Pisces, who sat next to him.

"Shut up, I forgot I have an intolerance to eggs," Pisces whispered back as he turned red. He paused for a second and then continued, "Snitches end up in ditches though."

"Don't worry, I won't tell," Cancer laughed quietly.

"Ребята, вы буквально так раздражаете, иногда я хочу разорвать голову." Virgo exclaimed as he stomped out of the bathroom. They heard the gurgling of the flush after him.

"I didn't know you knew Russian?" Scorpio said, raising an eyebrow. Virgo widened his eyes and replied,

"I don't.." He said as he looked around at the others.

"What did you say?"

"I said that you guys are literally so annoying I want to rip off my head." He paused while everyone stared at each other, slightly scared. His face suddenly lit up, "Oh wait! I saw something like this in the book." They all looked at Aquarius expectantly. He groaned,

"You people are so lazy." He mumbled as he held his hands out and stared at them. They all waited patiently. After a few seconds had passed a small spark leaped from his fingers, but that was it.

"You know what," Leo said, he got up and disappeared suddenly. After a few minutes, he walked down the stairs, sitting down on the sofa with the book in his hands. "Why didn't you just teleport down?" Cancer asked, looking at him,

"I didn't want to hurt myself or my ego anymore," was his reply as Aries picked a twig out of his hair and looked at him questioningly. "I got teleported to the wrong place a few times." he looked at them guiltily before turning to Aries. "And you messed up my hair!" He said to her, his expression changing to one of annoyance.

"No Mr. Obnoxious. The twig messed up your hair." She replied. They all gathered around the book as Aquarius opened it and looked for a page.

"Aha!" Virgo exclaimed. stopping Aquarius as he reached a page. The title was underlined and certain parts of it were highlighted. He read out the highlighted part. "Omnilingualism is the power of being able to understand and speak any language there is without ever hearing or practicing it before." He skipped down to his next highlighted note. "This includes the language of nature: the wind, trees, water and such, and the language of animals. This power also includes Voice Manipulation, the ability to imitate someone else's voice." He looked up at the others who were listening intently. Libra slapped him on the back.

"Well, looks like you have discovered your powers buddy!" She said. He couldn't make out whether she was being genuine or not.

They jumped in fright as the doorbell rang shrilly. "Ugh, it sounds like the school bell." She commented as Capricorn hopped up to get it. She returned to the living room with Phoenix in tow. Orion, however, was not with them, meaning that he probably didn't come.

They stared at her anticipatorily, knowing that she was going to tell them something important, she never came to the cabin unless it was important. What if this evil Ophiuchus had discovered their hiding spot, had he destroyed the school? Was he here? Had he gone after their families? Similar questions ran through their heads, partly because Cancer, although he didn't know it, was transferring his worrying thoughts to all of them.

"So I heard that most of you have discovered your powers." She spoke quickly, interrupting their thought process. An audible breath of relief ran through the group as they relaxed into the sofa, if anything had happened, Phoenix wouldn't have beaten around the bush. The ones who had nodded eagerly, while the three who hadn't looked at the ground disappointedly.

  Capricorn shuffled awkwardly next to her. Phoenix noticed this reaction and placed her hand on Capricorn's shoulder. "Don't worry, you'll discover your powers too," She said to Libra, Sagittarius, and Capricorn. She then turned back to the others. "The rest of you, get out. We're going to practice your powers."

Taurus flopped onto the sofa and grabbed the remote. "That. Was. Exhausting." She groaned as she rubbed her temples, where a headache had erupted. Pisces sat down next to her.

"She really worked you, didn't she?" he asked, although it was more of a statement. Phoenix had been trying to get Taurus to predict something that was going to happen in the future, but it didn't work. Taurus groaned again and slid down, throwing the remote on the ground. Pisces seemed to think for a second before reaching forward and gently placing his hand on her forehead. She looked at him questioningly before realizing what he was trying to do. As she relaxed she felt the pain in her head drain away, almost as though it was sucked away.

Pisces took away his hand and she felt as though she was snapped out of a trance. She smiled thankfully at him. He returned the smile and they sat in a comfortable silence for a few seconds before it was rudely interrupted by the rest of the group.

"WE GOT PIZZA!" Virgo said rather loudly, distracting them. Libra shushed him as he stuck his tongue out immaturely at her. Taurus sat up immediately.

"Thank goodness!" She cried. "I am starving." Taurus immediately went to eating, joined by the others shortly after. She sighed in satisfaction and relaxed into the sofa. Just as they were finishing up, Taurus froze. Pisces noticed first, he lightly shook her shoulder, receiving no response.

"Guys, something is wrong," he said, panic rising, but this time it wasn't Gemini. Her eyes were glassy, and although she was looking at him, she wasn't actually there. Her breathing was slow and relaxed, as though she was asleep. Virgo leaned forward and touched her hand. Before he could react it came up and slapped him hard across the face. Taurus blinked rapidly before looking around at the others in confusion, the glassy look was now gone from her eyes. Everyone stifled their giggles, Libra snorted accidentally, receiving a glare from Virgo.

"ik haat jullie allemaal" He grumbled,

"Dude we don't know what you're saying." Sagittarius rolled her eyes at him,

"I said that I hate you all in Dutch, and no, I don't know Dutch." He huffed. Before anyone could respond Taurus interrupted,

"Guys!" She cried. Everyone looked at her. Fear was plastered across her face. Her eyes flitted across the room as though something was there. "I think I saw something from the future."

~~~~~~~~~~

A/N Ahaha, I wonder what she saw?

By the way, if you know the languages that I have used in this chapter or before (Russian and Dutch) I'm sorry if they are not grammatically correct or correct at all, I google translated and I have no clue how much I can trust Google Translate.
