Mystic High Popularity Rating - Volume 1 Chapter 12 Revealed Nine
*********************************
We all walked to a nearby tea shop which was very famous among the students who attend our school. In the day, it was a tea shop, but later in the evening, it would be a 5 star restaurant. Though most students came for the tea shop, a good amount of student would come back later in the evening and eat with family and friends.
A waitress then asked us for our orders once we sat down. We chatted for a bit before the waitress soon came back with the drink and a few pastries we had asked for.
“Enjoy!” The waitress said politely before leaving. We were all enjoying the food before Alex abruptly coughed. We turned our attention torwards him to see what he wanted.
“So…Uh, What are your powers?” He asked suddenly. Violet, Ivy, and I all stopped eating and stared at him with in awkward silence. Sharing your powers was like revealing all the cards in your hand, It would leave you with no moves. if your opponents knew your powers, it would be easier for them to win in a duel, or in a real fight. So it wasn’t weird that we didnt want to share our powers with them, especially in such an open place.
Actually, scratch that, it wasnt weird that I didn’t want to share my powers with them. Soon enough, my strawberry smoothie went flying in the air, I wided my eyes and immediately turned to Violet, it turned to a pink ball of ice and fell back into my cup. I glared at her.
“Couldn’t you have tried your little experiment on your own drink??” I asked her. She simply shrugged and turned back to the guys.
“Ice powers?” Alex asked curiously.
“You could say that.” she continued, “I can change anything, living or dead. Into the three states of matter. She said, and Jacob then looked up from his drink.
“Anything?” he asked her. Violet nodded her head.
“Anything.” She said to him. Jacob then smiled at her.
“Cool.” He said with his Britain accent.
I felt like rolling my head till they went to the back of my head after seeing it take place.
“Anyway, How about you Ivy?” Alex asked her.
And she simply smiled back at him. I widened my eyes and my head flipped to look at Ivy
“Ivy, God so help me if you-” but I was cut of by the sound of thunder, when we looked out side, the sunny sky which welcomed us to the tea shop turned into a dark grey as rain was pouring out from the sky.
Everyone in the tea shop groaned and pouted on how they had plans today and the rain wasn’t helping.
The sky then transformed from a rainy day to a snowy wonderland as the trees had snow covering there branches.
“Weather??” Alex asked Pointing at Ivy and she nodded her head and smiled at him. I gave up and just slammed my head on the table.
“Pretty cool!” Alex said, And when I turned my head, Ivy had on a light blush while she giggled.
I was kinda fine with Violet doing it because she didn’t go all out. Violet was someone who was blessed with the ability to have two powers, it wasnt common, but it wasnt rare ethier. Her being able to turn anything into the three states of matter was her weaker one, her other power being able to stop time. Ivy had two powers as well, however she showed them her stronger power, her other one being super speed.
The three guys then looked at me expecting something from me and Violet nudged my arm.
“They want to see your power!” She whisper shouted. I mentally rolled my eyes which I noticed I’ve been doing alot lately since school started.
“Right.” I sighed practically giving up hope that they would skip past me. When I lifted up my head I saw Luke looking at me with a complicated face.
“You dont have to if you dont want to.” He said to me. I smiled at him and shook my head.
“It’s fine, really, I don’t mind.” I said.
I slowly pointed my finger up and took a breath in. Just when I exhaled, my finger lit up and a fire was dancing on top of it.
“Fire powers??” Alex confirmed. I nodded my head and added another fire to my other index finger. I flicked both of them torwards Ivy and Violet and when it got close, I zapped it back to my hand.
“Oops! sorry about that I lost control.” I faked an apology.
“Why’d you aim both of them at me?” Violet said annoyed.
“Oh c’mon, you know you would have dodged at least one of them.” I joked.
We started laughing before turning to the guys.
“So? what powers do you guys have?” Ivy ask curiously.
“Look.” Jacob said, pointing outside, and when we did, we saw it was still snowing outside. Some kids were running around in it.
“Oops! sorry about that.” Ivy said and the snow immediately started melting and the kids who were playing in it looked around before running off to there parents.
After that, A tree suddenly caught on fire, after what looked to be a lightning bolt struck it.
“I can on control lightning.” Jacob said.
“Cool!” Violet said, quick to react to the mini show he put on. Jacob was really a man of little words. We then looked at Alex who still had on his usual smile which showed off his freckles.
“I can read minds” He said while smiling.
I chuckled before asking, “Really? does that mean you can tell me what Ivy’s thinking of you right now?” I asked. Ivy’s face immediately turned red as she turned towards me.
“Sara!” she then turned to Alex “Don’t!” She then covered her face and pouted, putting her head on the table. I looked at Alex to see a slight blush on his face while he looked distracted.
I bursted out into laughter and patted Ivy back. Violet looked at me with her stop-being-rude face.
“Sara! stop being a bully!” Violet said to me.
I simply laughed it off.
“So, what about you Luke?” I asked him.
He rubbed the back of his neck and looked up at me.
“Well, I’m here for the special beings program.”
My eyes lit up when he said that.
“Really?? What are you? wait let me guess, Vampire? no hmm, you look more chill than that, Elf? no, you don’t have the ears, wait do you? lemme check!” I rambled.
“Actually no Im none of those.” He said to me.
“Fine, Fairy?” I asked.
“No” he said.
“Then what?” I asked impatiently.
“Im a werewolf.” Luke said. I widened my eyes.
“Really??”
