A/N: Read the summary before reading the story. At the beginning of the movie.

Summary: Phoenix Johnson she transfers to Spenser Academy to start a new life. A new life that didn't involve magic. But with Phoenix there's an intense excitement but with a deathless inspiration. Isn't that what a Phoenix is? But what she doesn't know is the trouble that lurks ahead for the journey ahead. Will she be able to help the Son's of Ipswich or will the Phoenix come falling down in a pile of ashes?

Chapter one:

My name is Phoenix Johnson.

I have a nice mocha skin tone. I have straight midnight black hair that falls to the middle of my back. I have brown and blue irises. I know it a strange eye color. But from what I'm told, it's a striking mixture of color. I'm an average height of 5'5.

I know it's weird. I mean my name is Phoenix. I've read so much about that particular mythical creature. It's actually one of my favorite pastimes. Reading about mythical and supernatural things. Somehow it gives me a sense of balance. Especially, with my powers.

I have the power of Telekinesis and Empathy. I can move things with my mind. With just a flick of my hand a can make a chair move to the other side. Empathy means I can read and if I concentrate hard enough I can project emotions on an individual. They've said that the Phoenix never dies. Phoenix is the symbol of power and prosperrity. I don't know why but sometimes I'm grateful that my mom named me that. It gives me a sense of pride that it makes me unique. One-of-a-kind. Being different has always been something I liked to be. I never liked to follow a crowd. I like doing my own thing.

I'm from Chicago, Illinois. Ipswich, Massachusetts is definitely different from the streets of the Windy City. I can't even believe I'm here. My mother moved us here. She said that staying in Chicago, would've been dangerous for us. I don't think moving from my friends and family helps either. I mean back home, I got good grades, even though I did get into trouble. I mean I can't help. Trouble always seemed like it followed me around when all I wanted to be was normal. But trouble has always been an aphrodisiac for me. We always flirted with each other on a thin line.

My mom even bought me a car. I mean not just any type of car. It's a remake model of the Honda 2000 from 2 Fast 2 Furious. Like Suki's car but in blue. My favorite color. But it doesn't have the whole angry Japanesse computer girl. I did a lot of racing in that car. What can I say, I have a need for speed. And I hardly ever lose

I moved to Ipswich about 2 months ago. During the summer break before my Senior Year. I even took a trip to look at the school before it opened up. I never actually went in. Just looked at the outside of it. It reminds of stories of haunted houses. It kinda creeps me out a little. It looked unreal. As if, someone built it out of a design to make you look at the structures, the old cathedral style buildings for like something in the 17th century.

I just moved into my dorm room. I look down at the paper. Room 315. I open the door and see I'm the first to arrive. I decide to start unpacking. I set my boxes down. I open the box. I throw my purse on the desk. I draw my hand out in front of me. I start levitating a few photo albums and set them down my desk. I send all of my books that I have from my box to the bookshelf. Which covers most of the shelf. I open my suitcase. I sit on my bed as I flick my hand as my clothes start flying into the closet on the right side of it.. To give my roommate some space to put her clothes. I open my drawers and send all my under garment into the top on and some pajama shirts into the drawer below it. I open my arms as my sheets fly into my arms. I start making my bed. I put my Idock alarm on the desk table between the two beds. I start folding up my boxes when the door opens. I look up from the table and turn towards the door. As a brunette haired female steps into my room.

She has pale skin but not that white. She has a petite build to her. She's about a few inches taller than me. With deep brown doe eyes. We're going to get along great.

"Hi, I'm Phoenix Johnson." I say to my roommate. She walks into the room slowly.

I can feel the emotions coming off her. She feels anxious, shy, and a little excited. I send her some calming waves. I can feel and see her start to relax.

"Umm, hi. I'm Chacyti Scott." She says.

"Well it's nice to meet you. Do you want some help unpacking? I'm finished with most of mine." I ask her.

"That would be great."

"Sure. Let's get started." I say.

We spend the next couple of hours unpacking and placing things in the room so it meshes. Notice without using my powers. I've learned to control them. At least to the point where I don't get caught. My mother has taught me from a young age that no one can know about my powers. If an evil force discovers the power I possess than I could be used to do things that I wasn't meant to do in this world.

I walk into our small bathroom and change out of my clothes and grab a towel and wrap it around me. I come back into the room. "I'll go take a shower and we can find something to do tonight. If you'd like?"

"That sounds good. I would love to do something."

"Okay, I'll be back soon." I say as I walk into the hallway. I walk down the hall towards the common shower.

Once I'm done with my shower. I come back to the room and change into a pair of boy shorts and a white tank top. When I come out of the bathroom, I see Chacyti sitting on her bed.

"So, do you want to watch a movie?" I ask her.

"Sure. What do you want to watch?" She asks me.

"How about this time you pick, and I'll order a pizza."

"Deal." She says walking over to her stack of dvd's. I pull out my cell phone.

"What do you want on your pizza?" I ask her.

"Sausage is good." She calls back to me.

I make the phone call. I order one large pizza. Half cheese and half sausage.

The guy comes to our door. I hand him a twenty and tell him he can keep the change.

I walk over and place the pizza in between us on the floor. "So, what movie did you pick?" I ask her.

"I hope you don't mind. I picked Cruel Intentions 2."

"No it's one of my favorites. I mean I could never stand the whole private school stuck up bitches but I love the plot of the movie. Damn that's ironic. I hate stuck up private school bitches yet I start going to one." I say laughing.

"Yeah. I understand. I'm glad you're my roommate. I was almost afraid to get a roommate like I did last year. She was a stuck-up snob. And a bitch."

"What's her name?" I ask.

"Kira Snider. She treated me like I was lower than dirt because of where I cam from."

"Wait why would she do that?"

"But Kira, she hates people from the Boston public. She thinks thats she's so much better than every girl here because her family has money and I came on a scholarship. She doesn't think I belong here." She says in a neutral voice her emotions says that somehow she feels like it's true.

"She does sound like a bitch. But how about this. If she every does anything to make you feel bad about yourself I'll kick her ass for you. Because just because your family might not have a million bucks doesn't make you any less of a person. It just means you have a great personality for people to like you for who you are." I say.

"I like that. Thanks." She says as I feel her regaining some of her confidence back.

"For what it's worth. I'm glad we turned out to be roommates. Now all you need to do is loosen up a little. You're a great girl. Just need a little bit of attitude."

She laughs. "Well we have all year to work on that trait of my personality." I laugh. 'We're gonna be best friends. I can tell'. I think to myself.

She walks over to put the dvd in. As we watch the movie, we make jokes and laugh about stupid stuff. I start to learn more about her. About how she transformed from a public school in Boston last year. About how another girl from the Boston public just transfered in this year. She learned about some stuff about where I grew up and things like that. Near the end of the movie I feel my eyes start to droop as I feel myself being pulled into the cloud of sleep. I fall down onto my pillow on the floor as my last thought is 'this year will definitely be interesting.'

A/N: I hoped you guys liked the first chapter in A Phoenix Rising. I baked you guys come Covenant cupcakes. I hoped you like them. I want this story to be a success and with you guys as readers I hope I will be. See you guys later. She'll meet Sarah and Kate and the Son's of Ipswich next.
