Chapter 2 - Chapter One; Part Two: The Guy in the Alley Way

"Who could have killed her", Polly asks Terrance, who paces through out the room.

I sit next to Wren on the floor, she looks up as I sit down and smiles weakly. "What are they talking about", I ask her, even though I already knew.

"They're talking about who might have killed her", she says putting her ear next to the door, eavesdropping.

"I'm gonna get going", I say standing up. She nods her head as I smile at her. I just couldn't stand hearing them talk about Ellie.

"Mason", I say knocking on his bedroom door. Other than me and Wren being best friends, Mason and Ellie were very close. Liam, was oddly quiet since the day Terrance brought him in.

"What", Mason says quiet harshly. "Chill Mason, I just wanted to see how you were holding up", I say sitting on his bed.

"Denise, I'm 20 I can take care of myself", he says glaring at me. "Yeah, well act like one", I say glaring back at him.

Me and Mason never had a strong brother-sister relationship. The day Terrance found me on the streets he decided to take me home.

Wren and I became very close friends, me and Ellie weren't close but we could still handle being around each other. However, Mason never warmed up to me and over time he started to find ways to piss me off.

For example, he would let chow chow, our dog bite my hair brush, or aim everywhere except the actual toilet when he went to the restroom before me. I hated him for that, but I still respected him.

Mason was special, he was the first child to be born with supernatural abilities. His was opening portals to different dimensions.

You could think that was fun, until your actually in a conversation with him and he decides to open a portal to a place filled with ducks and progresses to push you through, knowing damn well your terrified of ducks.

Luckily for me, like I said before I was born different. I didn't just have one power I had two. Mine were fire and ice. (Like Todoroki) So I just burnt the ducks that got near me to a crisp. I might hate ducks, but man they taste good.

Wren was a force field-er. Her force fields weren't ordinary though, they were made of water. So while she drown you to death, you could see fishes. Yes, her force fields had god damn FISHES in them.

Liam was always quiet, when Terrance first brought him to our house he asked him to show us his ability. Liam was hesitant at first but we soon found out he saw visions. His visions could be for the next few minutes or the next twenty years, maybe more who knows.

"You say act your own age, when you can't even act yours", Mason says to me. "Your fucking 18, act like a god damn 18 year old", he says getting up.

"One more thing, stay out of my personal issues, they're not your issues to begin with", he says opening a portal, to God knows where, and walks through.

"Fucking Mason", I murmur. I walk out of Mason's room and out the back door. "Shit you scared me", Liam says hiding something behind his back. "Are you smoking", I ask laughing. "Your 15 isn't that illegal", I say.

"Maybe", he says laughing. He puffs making me shiver. He signals to the cigarette, "Want to take a puff". "No, I don't smoke", I say shooing his hand away.

I felt like I was suffocating being near a cigarette so I just walked down the path leading to the small pickle farm we grew when we were all little.

It was at that time that I noticed movement coming from behind our house, in the alley. Something whooshed past me hitting whatever it was in the alley.

"Fuck", a guy's voice shouted from the alley. I looked back to see Liam shrugging. Something else had hit the guy in the alley way.
