Chapter One

Moving Day

P.O.V - Jesse

The sound of a my little using his screeching down stairs as part of his tantrum about moving from Hidden Ranch to Maxvile. The house shook on its foundation and caused the windows to shatter. So for mom sell this house in one peace. Getting out of bed as fast as I could which, wasn't very fast since I was tangled in the sheets, to save all the boxes that had been stacked in my room. Kyle had been against this move from the very beginning and even tried to beg mom to stay. Alas our mother was very impulsive as to the reason that Kyle and I are around is because of that. Though neither of us knew who fathered which just our mother forgot their names but said we looked just like the others one father. Though that is not my point, my mother is very impulsive and will do anything on a whim but this move is not because of impulse it is because of me and Kyle. A few years ago around Kyle's tenth birthday he threw the worlds biggest tantrum over wanting a new game system while mom didn't have the money to pay for it and spaced on getting him any other kind of presents and he screamed so loud that it shattered the windows on five houses on the block including ours.

Not that it helped but a week later after he broke into my bedroom I short circuited half the people on our power grid. All I remember is Kyle reading my diary and laughing about the fact that I had been writing about this boy in my class who was at the time to me cute. The next every light bulb in the house is busted and glass in raining down to the floor. I truly did know what had happened until m mother came home. She cleaned up the glass and treated my brother for the electric burns he received and then told me I had to keep my anger in check because next time I might causing the house to spark. I snorted her off and went on with my way. Though today when I went down stairs to find her, I realized that maybe the move was a better idea than Kyle and I thought.

"Jess hurry up please I only have the truck till four." She said carrying the last of the boxes from the house to the truck blowing a bleached strand of hair out of her face.

Rolling my eyes as I walked to truck, opening the passenger-side door and pushing my little brother over into the middle. Just as my mother locked up the door to our family house and got in the car. The ride was going to be a long with the two of them, so I stuck my head phones into my ears and watched the scenery change from the window. Though halfway to Maxville Kyle had fallen asleep on my shoulder and drooled a bit, his snoring over powered my music and drove me crazy. Trying to drown him out I found other ways to entertain my mind. Looking over at my mother I studied her a bit. My mother was the daughter of a Super Hero called Tech King. She hadn't gotten any of his powers but did retain his looks. She had a pointed nose along side a sharp chin with her pale green eyes to far apart and if you looked at her roots she had pale brown hair though she bleached it to look younger and more appealing. All of these unappealing features to other men brought two super powered men to her and then she was given us. She was a short woman and looked to young to have two teenage children.

From what she use to say my father was a Super Villain known as Power Line. He was everything a bad boy was supposed to be. Mom said that he had long dark red hair with tan skin, dark deep blue eyes and a smooth voice and a height to match his stacher. She said he talked her out of her pants and that they only stayed together for two years after I was born. I had gotten his eyes but her pale brown hair. Though I wish that he had given me his height, my fourteen year old brother was now my same size and I was seventeen. My brother on the other had his father had been a Super Hero known as Screech. I remember him being short with a crocked nose, pale blond hair not to mention brown eyes. Kyle was that man's mini me though.

When we reached out new house in a nice neighbor hood mom parked the truck and shook my brother awake gently saying that we had gotten to our new home. He was not at all excited. I on the other hand quickly left the two of them and made my way to the back of the truck to grab a few of my boxes. While I was doing that I noticed that a neighbor couple came over. They both wore fake glasses and fake smiles, they both also had brown hair thought the wife was tanner than her husband. They walked up to my mother and handed her a plate of cookies. I rolled my eyes at the good neighbor clshie and turned up my music and carried the two boxes that I had to my new room.

I had been the one to go with mom to this house and pick it out, when she told the relator it was the one she wanted, she then bought a shit ton of paint. We spent the rest of that afternoon painting the house what ever color she had wanted. My brother's new room had been painted a bright neon green, her room a dull pink, the common areas of the house had been painted a light grey color and lastly my room whelp. I got to pick this color my room was Lightning purple. It was a white colored purple that had grey trims around the wall. Setting them down on the floor I opened up the one marked "Kyle stay out" first, making sure to hide all of my stuff that Kyle liked to get into before I even started to put away my clothes and knickknacks. Going back down stairs I heard my mother talking with the couple.

"So how old are they?" The woman asked.

"My oldest just turned seventeen though like every other teenager they hate their mother prying so I let her be. Now my baby.. He's two weeks from being fourteen and still clings to me every day." She laughed at the last part.

"So your name is Jodi Brice right? Are you related to Hank Brice?" She asked helping my mother put away dishes.

"Ah yes. Hank is my father. He got really sick last year and asked us to move down here." My mother said cheerfully.

"Your children are lovely. I have a son your daughters age he goes to Sky High tell me do your children have "Special talents"?" She asked using air quotes to my ditz of a mother I laughed walking into the room.

"Unless you are blunt with my mother she won't understand. I'm Jesse. Yes me and Kyle have powers." I laughed out grabbing more of my boxes.

"Jesse Ann Brice you be respectful do you hear me young lady." My mother chastised as I rolled my eyes.

"Yes mother." I mocked out leaving them alone.

After a few hours my room was in the familiar chaos that I enjoyed in my life. Looking around I noticed a handbook in one of my last boxes with a note on the cover from my mother.

'Look Jess I know you don't really understand much about the powers that you have. Well.. Honey this school is meant for people like you and your brother. So I... I talked to your old papa and he said that as long as you stayed out of trouble he would help me pay the tuition for this school as it is his Alma-tar. Please just give it a try for me. I know we never really agree on anything but I am wanting it to work out here not just for me but for your and and the squirt. So you will start school Monday. They have sent this handbook, a map, and since you will not get your schedule till you are placed as a Hero or a Sidekick well they didn't give me one. There is a note from the coach saying you will do your placement along in the gym after the freshman have done theirs, also the squirt will be going to the school with you so please try for me and the old man to be nice.'

I bit into my fist and screamed loudly, not only was my grandfather paying for me to go to school with a bunch of privileged little Hero's. I had to attend this school with my brother. I was only happy that I was a Junior and he would be a freshman. That meant not a lot of time with each other but still the thought that he was going to be in any of my classes irked me. The brat thought he ran the house well High school was going to chew him up and spit him out. Looking over at my mirror I looked at myself for a moment. My pale brown hair curled in an unruly fashion, my clothes looked like I stepped out of a horror movie because of the move. I don't think that I was going to fit in here. Letting out a loud noncovered scream I caused all the lights in the house to flicker on and off till the breaker blew.

"Jesse Ann! You get down here right now and fix the lights!" My mother screamed from down stairs.
