Chapter 4 - Deja Vu

The minute she said those words I couldn't believe it. I mean everything was happening so fast and I was rolling with it but after she said that I felt like things needed to slow down. I grabbed her arm and stopped her in the middle of our walk to her house and looked at her. "Okay have you been doing any drugs lately?" I asked. She looked at me with a confused look. "Um... no." She said. "You sure?" I asked. She snatched her arm out of my hand. "Look... I know it sounds crazy but it's true. My mom is actually OUR mom." She said. "Okay... you literally just met my mom Jocelyn. I mean come on. You can't be serious." I said. "Use your brain idiot. Why else do you think we have these powers? Why else have we been able to see inside each other's brain? You think this is all a coincidence?" She asked. "This is a destiny. We were meant to meet when we did and how we did. There are no accidents." She said. It honestly did make some sort of sense but I couldn't believe her. If I did believe her that would mean that my parents lied to me... and I just couldn't believe that for a second. "Okay so if your mom is my mom who are my parents? Kidnappers?" I asked. "Jason... you were adopted. Your parents just never told you. At least... that's what my mom told me" She said. I looked away from her for a second and got ready to ask why "our" mom had given me up for adoption... but before I could I seen a cop car driving up the street coming towards us. We had to act fast. I seen an alley right next to us. "There's a cop coming... we have to go into the alley so he doesn't see us. We're not supposed to be out of school." I said. I tried to grab her hand and pull her into the alley so the cop couldn't see us but as soon as I touched her hand another lightning bolt hit the wall. This one was bigger so it even burst through a small portion of the brick wall... which made an extremely loud sound. I looked back towards the cop and saw his lights come on. He had seen us. Me and Jocelyn ran into the alley and hid behind some garbage cans and a dumpster just as the cop pulled into the alley. He was about a block and a half away when I had seen him driving towards us so it didn't take him long to get to where we were at. As we were ducking down I could feel a wave of anger coming over me. That's when Jocelyn hit my shoulder and yelled in a quiet voice saying "From now on don't touch me! We don't know exactly what's going on with us so until we get to my mom don't touch me at all!" I wanted to ask her how did her mom know what was going on but immediately after she said that the cop honked his horn and got out of his car. Apparently he could see us ducking down. He was about 5"8 with brown hair and a bushy beard. The guy definitely ate alot of doughnuts if you know what I mean. "Look guys I know you're back there so let's just get this over with. You're supposed to be in school and not out vandalizing." He said. I could see him looking at the wall and studying it. I thought about it for a second and realized that maybe we should go with him. I mean maybe we could use some law on our side right now... plus I want to see if Ty is alright. I got ready to say that to Jocelyn but before I could she looked at me and said in her head "No". I keep forgetting that she can read my mind at all times. I decided to talk back telepathically. "Stop doing that." I said. "Look, I can't go with him because I.... I kind of have a warrant out for my arrest." She said. I looked her up and down. "What?! Why?!" I asked. The cop talked into his walkie talkie and started coming towards us. "We don't have time for this!" She said. She grabbed my shoulder and suddenly I felt the same feeling I had when we teleported to my room. I felt energized. I heard nearby voices in my head. It was happening again. "You're going to have to teleport us again." She said. Just as she said that sparks of electricity formed around us just as it did before. The cop seen it and pulled out his gun and started to give commands. "Come out now and put your hands up! If you have a weapon drop it right now!" I guess he thought the sparks of electricity were from a tazer or something. "Jason! You have to get us to my house now!" She said. I tried to concentrate and teleport us there but I realized that I don't even know what her house looked like. So I came up with another idea. I turned towards her, took her hand off my shoulder, and put my hand on her shoulder instead. Once I did that the electricity around us changed color and turned pink instead of the blue it was. "Jocelyn you're going to have to teleport us. I don't know what your house looks like but you do." I said. Once I said that, the cop came up to us and told me to put the weapon down. He was about 5ft away from us. While I was touching her shoulder still and the electricity circling around us I told him that we didn't have a weapon. He looked confused. "Then what is this?!" He yelled. I told him that I had no idea. It didn't matter what I was saying though. The whole time I was just trying to stall for time so I could let her concentrate. That whole time I was just saying the same word over and over in her head... and it was "concentrate". I couldn't tell if she was doing it though because I was trying to keep my eyes on the cop. The cop decided to try and restrain us though... so he walked up and reached in the circle of electricity. Once he did though, a lightning bolt hit him extremely hard and sent him flying into the brick wall. All you heard was a loud "CRACK" and then him hitting the ground. But just as he hit the ground... I had seen a white flash.... and then suddenly we were in someone's room. Her room. Guess it was time to meet her mom. Possibly... OUR mom.
