Hey readers! I’m back!! Lol I know it has been awhile since I last written my 2nd chapter. I was reading the story and I wanted to write something. So I decided to try to write some more chapters for this story and possibly my other stories as well. I’ve got College going on too, so if for some reason a chapter is delayed that is the reason. So for the next few weeks, look out for new chapters. Thanks, BornToBeaWitch1989. Enjoy the new chapter!

Few Months Ago
Life was peaceful and quiet. Nothing could disturb it, except a murder.
Sara Mulwray was a high school student with few friends and good grades. She wasn’t a nerd nor was she popular. But she did have a secret, a secret that she shared only with her mother and a best friend that she trusted.
The day was normal, a few classes here and there including a lunch break, a typical high school day. The weather was not so bad, the sun shining with clouds and a warm heat from the sun’s rays. Unbeknownst to her, the weather was going to turn nasty and her life was going to be turned upside down.
Sara was walking to lunch with her best friend Bess, when she noticed the man in black.
“Hey Bess, do you see that man?” Sara asked.
“Yea, what about him?” Bess answered.
“I don’t know… Something seems off about him.” Sara said.
Bess looked back at the man trying to see what Sara saw. “I don’t know Sara, maybe he does seem off. Anyways I gotta go to the bathroom, so save me a seat?”
“Of course.” Sara smiled. She took her eyes off the man and zeroed her eyes on the table that Sara and Bess always sat at. As she was walking towards the table, Bess peeked out of the bathroom and making sure that Sara did not see her, she walked out and sauntered towards the man that Sara had been talking about.
“That her?” The man asked.
“Yea. That’s Sara.” Bess replied. “Look, you’re not gonna hurt her, are you?”
“No” The man said. “You did the right thing, coming to us about her”
“Are you sure? Cause I don’t feel comfortable about this. I mean I am her best friend and what she told me really freaked me out.” Bess said with down cast eyes.
“Yes, trust me” The man said. “Now go before she sees you talking to me and become suspicious”
Bess nodded and turned away. The man turned away as well. He pulled out a cell phone and punched in a few numbers, before pulling it to his ear.
“Mr. Mason, sir, I found her thanks to her friend Bess Hanson.” The man said. “Alright sir, I will follow her home and capture her, and no sir, I will not fail.” He hung up the phone and watched Sara.
The day continued, with Sara feeling as if she was being watched. As the last bell of the day rang, Sara went to her locker, grabbed what she needed and headed home. When she finally arrived home, she fiddled through her bag to find her keys, she looked back and saw the same man she had saw in school. She froze with fright. When she did moved, she hurried herself to find her house key and when she did she nearly dropped it because her hand was shaking. Finally she calmed herself down enough to put the key in the lock and turn it. As soon as she went inside the house, she shut and locked the doors.
“Hi, sweetheart” Her mother, Jenny, called out.
Sara jumped and breathed deeply. “Hi mom!”
Sara walked into the kitchen and saw her mother trying to fix a leaky faucet. All of sudden water spurted everywhere. Sara’s mother, Jenny, quickly put her hand on the faucet and all the water flowed backwards, thanks to the ability to control water.
“Nice save mom! Now we don’t have to mop the floor” Sara joked.
“Haha very funny” Jenny smiled. She leaned away from the faucet and turned to her daughter. “How was school today?”
“Ok. A normal day I guess. But no homework!” Sara said.
“That’s good, sweetie. What are your plans for the night?” Jenny asked.
Sara plopped down onto the kitchen chair. “Bess and I are gonna go see a movie. Don’t know which one though.”
“That’s good. Gives me a chance to have the house to myself.” Jenny said.
“Cool. I’m gonna go get ready.” Sara said.
“Ok” Her mother replied.
Sara went into her bedroom. She changed her clothes and packed up a small backpack that was also her purse. An hour later Bess came into her room, having been let into the house by Jenny.
“Hey Sara”
“Hey Bess. Let’s go.”
The girls went downstairs and into the kitchen where Jenny was still trying to fix the faucet.
“Hey mom, we are gonna go now.” Sara said.
“Ok girls have fun and I love you.” Jenny said.
“We will and I love you too. Bye mom” Sara said.
“See you later Ms. Mulwray.” Bess said.
They left the house. Sara cautiously looked around but there was no man to be found. She breathed deeply and smiled when she looked at Bess. A few hours later, when the movie was over, they left the movie theater laughing. On the way back, the weather changed, it started to rain and grow darker. They reached Bess’s house first and Sara left to go to her house. She started to run as the rain fell faster. She arrived at her porch and went to put her hand into her bag but she stopped when she noticed the front door was opened.
Her heart started to pound as she slowly entered the house. She looked around and what she saw made her terrified. The furniture was all over the room, the TV. was broken, and the walls were dripping with water. She looked into the kitchen and as she walked, lighting flashed and lit the room up.
“No!” She cried as she ran towards the motionless figure on the floor.
Sara slid as she ran across the wet floor. She moved her mother to face her and she cried as she saw Jenny’s face all bloody. She knew that her mother was never gonna come back, ever. She heard a creak. She stopped crying. Whoever killed her mother was still in the house. She slowly stood up, as quietly as she could. Sara took a few steps before she was flung backwards into the cupboards by an unseen force. She landed on the ground with a grunt. She looked up to see a man. She gasped as she recognized who it was. It was the man who had been in the school and across the street when she had gotten home earlier.
“Who are you? And what do you want?” Sara said angrily.
“The name’s Carter Jenkins and my boss wants you.” Jenkins replied with a smirk.
“Why?” Sara said slowly getting up.
“Why? Because of the unique power that you posses.” Jenkins answered.
“What? How do you know about that?” Sara asked.
“Thanks to your friend Bess Hanson.” Jenkins said.
“Liar! She swore to not tell anyone.”
Jenkins stood closer to Sara, enough that Sara could smell his smoky breath. “Well I guess she lied.”
Sara was pissed off and hurt by the fact that her best friend had betrayed her. She pushed Jenkins and she disappeared in swirls of colors. Jenkins was caught off guard and landed on the floor. He roared and tried to catch Sara before she fully disappeared, but he missed her. Sara re-appeared in her bedroom. She stood for a second and looked around. She grabbed a jacket and looked around for something. She pushed stuff around and knocked stuff down. She didn’t care about the noise as long as she could find a picture of the one person she knew in her heart that would help her. She found what she was looking for as she heard feet stomping on the stairs. Jenkins had heard the clatter and knew where she was. The door swung opened and Sara looked over her shoulder to see Jenkins pissed off and soaking wet. She smiled and disappeared out of sight.
Jenkins ran towards Sara as the swirls of colors appeared. He fell through her and landed on the floor. He swore loudly and ran out of Sara’s bedroom. Sirens pierced the air as Jenkins left the house through the back way.
Sara ran as hard as she could and used her power as much as she needed to, to get away from the man that had killed her mother and was chasing her. A few months went by as Sara tried to survive. She stole money and food. She did everything she could. Until the night that Carter Jenkins found her. It rained as hard as it did the night her mother died. She escaped into an empty warehouse.
She hid behind some boxes and looked at the picture she had clutched in her hands. It was her favorite picture. In the picture was a woman hugging a man who was holding a baby. The baby was her and the woman was her mother, Jenny. She closed her eyes and rocked back and forth. Sara muttered under her breath, trying to be quiet and not let Jenkins hear her.
“Take me to him, Take me to him, take me to-“
“Hello!” Jenkins called out.
She went still. Her eyes were closed.
“I know you’re in here little girl!” The man called out again.
Sara opened her eyes, and kept muttering “Take me to him”. All of sudden the man in the picture, appeared out of nowhere.
“Oh, Come on Shal-” The man started to say before he realized that he was in a different place.
“NO!”
The man turned towards the voice and saw Sara, all wet and muddy from the rain.
“No! No! That is not what I wanted!” Sara cried in protest. Realizing that she had shouted, she got up and ran towards the man, grabbed his arm and pulled.
“Come on! We gotta hide, before he finds us!” She cried.
“Too late little girl. I’m here.” Jenkins said.
They turned towards the voice. The man pushed Sara behind him and blue lights flickered around his hands.
“Well, well, well… Looks like I caught myself another mutant” Jenkins said with a smirk. “My boss will be so pleased. Hope he doesn’t mind if I kill you before I take the girl”
“I don’t think so” The man protecting Sara replied.
“Hmm… You’re brave, I’ll give you that. But first, I should probably knock the girl out before I kill you.” Jenkins said.
Before the man could do anything, Jenkins flicked his hand and Sara flew backwards against a wall where she landed in a heap.
The man zapped Jenkins and the fight started.
As the two men fought against each other with fist and power, Sara slowly got up to her knees. She looked up and saw her protector throw a testla coil at Jenkins, knocking him out. The man looked over to her and started to walk towards her when Sara heard something that stopped her heart cold. She turned her head towards Jenkins, and saw that he had a gun aimed at the man.
“Uncle Brennan, look out!” She cried before disappearing and reappearing in front of the man.
The air resounded with the explosion of the gun and the shout of Sara.
A scream echoed the sanctuary. Brennan was startled out of his slumber at the scream. He looked up and saw Sara sitting up and screaming with tears crawling down her face. Brennan ran up to her and held onto her as she screamed.
“Shhh, it’s ok. It’s ok Sara. You’re safe.” Brennan crooned, trying to calm her down.
Sara calmed at the voice of her uncle as Adam, Shalimar, Emma, and Jesse clambered into the infirmary. Soon the only noise in the room was Brennan whispering and Sara hiccupping. Brennan’s heart broke when Sara looked up.
“Uncle Brennan?” Sara whispered.
“Yes, Sara. It’s me.” Brennan said.
She cried as Brennan held her. Brennan looked over her head towards his teammates. They left to give them some privacy.
