The wind blew hard on the leaf-filled sidewalk.Every fourth grader,exept for Violet and I, tried to dodge under bushes to escape it's rage. Violet looked over at me and said, " You REALLY should stop now!" I smiled and replied, '"Alright, alright I'll stop!" with a wave of my hand the wind blew casually, becoming a nice winters breeze.She laughed but then frowned, "What's MY superpower?"
I looked at her with a million things going through my mind, though i didn't sound like it, " You'll, uh, found out soon enough!" i exclaimed with an encouraging smile. Still, she didn't seem pleased. her stormy blue eyes fixed itself unto the sidewalk as she sighed, " I don't think so, i'm hopeless, aren't I?" I frowned, for i never like to see my friends unhappy, who would? But still, i looked up to Violet and i didn't know how to make her, well, her cheerful self. Suddenly, RING!RING!RING!
Violet looked back up at me, clenching her backpack, and simply said, " I'll see what i can do over the weekend i guess, i mean, my family is going to Corpus and the possibilites are pretty much endless there." I laughed and replyed, " I guess your right, you know oysters, saimon, the works!" finally, i saw that bright smile i'm used to seeing. " see ya!" Violet shouted as she ran to catch up with the bus.VROOM!VROOM!VROOM! a jet black car pulled up with a little girl in the back with a dark brown bob sitting upon her head shouting, "GET IN!"
"so," she said staring at me like she wasn't expecting much though i was two years older then her," what did you, if you even DID anyting, do at school today?" she asked putting on a clearly fake smile. I glared down at her while pulled my chocolate hair into a ponytail, " oh, i don't know.... what did YOU do at school today, Chloe?" She stared back at me, her eyes wide with astonishment for i hardly EVER make a comeback. Her face quickly rested back in an ' i'm better than you' position as she started to say something than sternly, turned back at the car window, " yes," i thought, " finally got her!"
A day later,i sat on my polka-dotted bed writing in my daily journal with a neon green gel pen.
"So, today i talked with Violet-" when suddenly, my peace was disturbed by a large BANG! coming from outside my bedroom window. " those darn Hamiltons!" i thought, for, despite their name, our the rowdiest family on the block, that familie's sterio's volume must go up to a THOUSAND. though what i saw versus what i predicted was a WAY different image. For, as i swept open my pale curtains a burst of water poured onto my eyes until all i could see was a figure approaching, grinning, her stormy blue eyes vibrating as she said, " i found my powers!"
