9. The Car Ride
"Where are we going?" Colton asked. "Too a camp site. We are camping in tents. This camp area isn't known that well and it is very rustic. We have a slim chance of being found for a couple of days." Claire stated. "Oh okay." Colton said.
The car ride seemed slow for them. Nothing exciting happened the whole way. Nothing.
Once they reached the campsite they unpacked everything and set up the tents. Then they started a fire in the bonfire ring. It was only one o'clock so everyone slipped on their swimming suits and ran to the water. Claire was the first one in then Colton. The rest just jumped in at the same time. They swam around in the water and messed around in the sand. Everyone was having a blast.
At 9 o'clock at night they all got out of the water and went to take showers.
Once everyone was done they all gathered around the camp fire. "So... What is everyone's story on how they got their powers?" Claire asked. Ezarick spoke first, "I was blind when I was born and they did this laser eye surgery that went wrong and it gave me the ability to see through stuff, to see in night vision and to see in Inferred." Everyone smiled and Ezarick relaxed. Claire spoke, "Well ever since my mom passed away, I realized that I can travel through time. I have never changed the past though. The healing I found out when my dad cut his leg on a steel frame. I was treating it like I usually would and I touched it. All the sudden it healed. I don't know how I got it or why. It just happened." Everyone nodded their head and Claire relaxed once again.
May sighed then spoke, "To be honest, I was born with my powers. I just didn't develop them until I was older. Practicing whenever I was alone. I didn't know how to tell anyone so I kept it a secret for all my life until now." Callie spoke almost right after May, "Ever since my dad passed away I was able to see Heaven and him whenever I wanted. It's nice to know that he is happy up there. Now the telling the future didn't come until I was 16. I knew about the tests and I knew about the blood drive. I just couldn't tell anyone. I thought you guys wouldn't talk to me."
Colton sat up straight, "I kept my powers hidden ever since the cops were after me. I was speeding and I didn't want to get a ticket so I ran away from them. When I was driving I was thinking about getting out of there when all the sudden I teleported to my house, along with my car. So that's how I found out I had powers. The invisibility I knew since I was very young so apparently I was born with both powers."
Brendan talked next, "Well I was born with my powers. My family was unnatural too. We were different. I didn't develop my power until I was 10 but I knew my parents had powers. They just hid it from me. My parents died when I was 9. Making me live in an orphanage until someone adopted me. I never used my powers near them."
Zack and Phoenix stayed quiet the whole time, listening to their stories. Zack always wanted to have powers. He was jealous of everyone. He couldn't stand it any longer. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight." He said then he walked away and into the tent.
Phoenix was fine with them having powers. He didn't have to worry about the government killing him because he didn't have powers. He didn't know why Zack was so jealous of them when the government is after them instead of him and Zack. He sighed then stated, "I'm gonna go to bed too. Goodnight everyone."
It was after 1 o'clock when everyone got into the tents. Everyone quietly went to sleep. Well almost quietly. Phoenix was snoring up a storm and Zack was sleep talking. Everyone else just blocked them out and went to bed.
It was 8:30 in the morning when Claire woke up. She had a nightmare and couldn't go back to sleep. She quietly got up and unzipped the tent door. When she walked outside the cool wind hit her face. Making her shiver a little. She took in a deep breath and sighed, letting out the air that she breathed in. Then she walked over to the table and started to cook breakfast.
