"Yeah, I guess you're right. My curiosity got the better of me," Skylar examined the boy, "Hmm…"

A gust of wind blew and Luca zipped up his coat. "Well, if that's all I should probably get going…" He didn't actually have anywhere to go, but this situation was creeping him out a little.

Ashira stood at her apartment window and stared at the sky. It was a full moon, the sky was drizzled with stars. She felt a little homesick but shook the feeling. She morphed into a falcon and flew out of her window. She watched the ground and the air in front of her. She saw a boy and a girl in an abandoned street. Ashira flew down to a building's ledge and morphed back into a human. The girl had wavy green hair with pale skin dotted with freckles. The boy had short, what could be either black or dark brown hair and tanned skin. She watched their conversation, hoping they would not spot her.

Skylar nodded, "Yeah, I'll get going too, it's way to late, or early, whichever way you put it, to be out here," she walked away, still confused. She felt like she knew him from somewhere, but she didn't know where.

"Mhm…" Luca nodded to her, not fully understanding what she had said. "Well then," He waved awkwardly. "See you around." He had absolutely no intention of ever seeing this girl again, but it was nice to be polite.

Ashira morphed into a falcon again moving closer to the girl to get a more detailed look. The girl wore a sweatshirt with jeans. She had big, dark green eyes, and was about 5'7", 5'8". Ashira flew away to a sidewalk then morphed back into human.

Skylar looked up, hearing the swoosh of a bird's wings. When she looked, she didn't see any birds.

Another person had appeared on the street. Luca couldn't see her very well from where he was standing, but she had long black hair that looked impossible to take care of. He couldn't see where she might have come from.

Skylar looked around some more, hoping to find what made the noise. As she was looking, she saw another person on the sidewalk. Skylar decided not to ask her if she was the one who sent her the note, if she did, she'd say so.

Luca looked awkwardly between the two mysterious girls for a few seconds before remembering that he was going to leave. He stuffed his hands in his pockets and began walking back towards his apartment.

Skylar and the mysterious girl stood in silence for a solid minute. Skylar got antsy, so asked the girl, "Did you send me this note?"

On the way home, Luca kept trying to control the water powers he'd previously discovered. The most he managed was a few drops. At least it was progress.

When the girl didn't answer, Skylar decided to leave and go back to her house. She was way too tired to deal with things like this.

Xander was roused by the sound of voices, and jolted awake from his sleep. He was camouflaged in with the shadows, so he was’t noticed. He was completely silent as he stayed seated, watching the people.

Skylar plopped on her bed for the second time that night. Just as she was comfy, her alarm rang. Skylar groaned, she didn't want to go to college again. Then she remembered that cute boy she saw yesterday. She got up from her bed, this time bumping her head on an overhang in the ceiling. She had to get that removed soon. She got dressed in some halfway decent clothes, and set out for college that morning.

She stayed up late into the night, looking for answers. When she couldn't, she switched off her laptop, got up and put it on her desk across the room. She jumped onto her bed and fell asleep almost immediately.

In the morning Ashira's alarm clock screamed at her.
"Get Up! Get Up!" it buzzed.
Ashira dreaded that moment each morning. She wished that for once she would stay quiet.
She groaned "School…"
She ended up going to college, although late. She pulled her hood over her ears and tucked her tail into it as well. Ready for the boring day ahead…

The whole school day, Luca couldn't concentrate. Too many things were running through his mind.
What's with the whole water power thing? He needed answers. This was driving him crazy.
Who were those two girls? He should have asked for names at least.
Luca felt himself drifting off into sleep. He hadn't even tried to get some rest the previous night, but instead spent his time researching to find out more about water generation. Much to his disappointment, he found nothing.

The person in front of her started falling asleep. Me too, buddy, me too she thought. The teacher was writing on the whiteboard, so she scrunched up some paper and threw it at the back of his head.

Luca jolted awake. He swiveled his head around to see who hit him as the paper ball fell to the floor. He made eye contact with, get this, another girl. She had a sort of ombre hair like the green-haired girl except instead of green it was a brownish color. He glared at her long enough for her to get the point before turning back around so he didn't get in trouble.

Oh scary, he glared. I was trying to help, mate. Cece thought, rolling her eyes at the boy. The teacher turned around and started to talk. Cece looked down at her desk and started to zap her initials into it.

He tapped his fingers against the table, unsure what to do. The teacher was obviously talking about something Luca should probably pay attention to, but he couldn't concentrate. He picked up the paper that the girl had thrown at him and flattened it. Luca scribbled for a few seconds on the corner before he began to doodle on it.
He wasn't good at drawing, but he liked doing it to get his emotions and thoughts out. Soon enough the paper was filled with sketches of water, hands, windows, and a drawing of the three girls that he was rather proud of.

The teacher started writing something on the board again and Cece looked down at her desk, which was now engraved with her initials. It said CCR. Her middle name didn't start with C, but she thought it looked better than CAR. She looked up at the clock on the wall. They still had a lot of class left. She started engraving a bunch of things into the desk.

Luca folded up the paper that was now covered in doodles and put it in his notebook. He began tapping his fingers again for a few seconds before he leaned forward in his chair, hunched over his desk. He opened the palm of his hand and concentrated. Luca closed his eyes tight and when he opened them, he saw a small sphere of water about the size of a golf ball. He gasped suddenly and it absorbed back into his hand, just as everyone looked at him quizzically, including the teacher.
He cleared his throat. "Sorry. I have a cough." Luca stated as he fake-coughed into his elbow. "Allergies."

Cece was staring at the markings on her desk when the boy in front of her made a weird gasping sound. She leans over to get a better look at what he was surprised by, but the only thing she found was that his hand was wet. The water disappeared into his hand almost immediately. She shrugged and looked back down at her desk, running her fingertips over the markings she had made.
"Miss Robins." the teacher addresses her and she looks up to the front.
"Yes?" Cece answers.
"Since you seem so enraptured by your desk, could you tell me what the homework is?"
"Shouldn't you know, sir? You set it, after all."
After she said that, the class started snickering. She smirked and raised her eyebrow.
"See me after class," the teacher states, turning back to the board. The class stops snickering and put their heads down. Cece just smiles.

Luca couldn't help but smile at the girl's slightly rude remark. It was nice to have something to laugh about. It wasn't just the comment that made him happy, but also the fact that he'd actually controlled his power. He'd done it! It really wasn't much, but it was something and that was enough for him.

The bell for end of class rang, and everyone left the room quickly. Cece tried to escape the the crowd of people, but the teacher called her back.
"Miss Robins, what have I told you about talking back?" he says when she reaches his desk.
"Not to do it," she answers.
"And what do you keep doing?"
"I keep making amazing comebacks." The teacher sighs at that, putting his face in his hands.
"Miss Robins, could you just pay attention next time?" he says.
"I mean, I can, but I'd rather not,"
"Just pay attention, okay?" he continues, "I'm letting you off the hook this time, but this is your last warning."
"Yup."
"You're free to go."
When he says that, Cece hightails it for the door and leaves.
