True Power

By James E. Cole

Hello to whoever is reading this. Let me introduce myself. My name is Sean Soulflight. In these two stories youre going to read Im going to be telling you about my life at this new school I went to. In this time I learned a lot and taught a little too. I made friends, some of which I never expected. The real reason though that Im writing this story down is because I want others to know what I know. Each story has a lesson that everybody should learn and situations that most people can relate to.

The two stories you are going to read are in order of the things that happened. The first is called the boy white hair and the second is called true power. By the time you finish reading this I hope you feel a little wiser and a whole lot more powerful. So without further ado, let the first story begin.

Part One

The Boy with White Hair

1

Headache

Starting at a new school is so much fun isn’t it? Not. But that’s what I’m doing. This is my first day attending Cyclone High. I wonder how the school got its name. I thought to myself. I’m a sophomore so that kind of makes it a little worse. Everybody has their little clique and people are going to be talking about the new kid. What’s going to make it even worse is that I had white hair.

Now I can explain that. Let me back up and say that in the beginning when we are born we do not have our powers. Around the age of twelve our power become unlocked. I remember when mine became unlocked. I was sleeping when suddenly I was woke up because I suddenly felt like my heart was on fire. It was beating so fast and it didn’t hurt, but it was so strange. Then suddenly I got a terrible headache. And not the kind that aspirin can fix either. I went back to bed and when I woke up the next morning I was shocked by what I saw in the mirror.

My hair had gone from dusty blonde to pure white that actually looked good against my semi pale skin, my eyes went from brown to grey, and I felt great. The energy in my body felt like I had electricity in my blood. I’ve been that way ever since. It feels weird, but I got used to it. That was about three years ago. Other than getting a little taller at five feet three inches and a little stronger my hair has stayed the same. My eyes change when I start using my powers.

So anyway back to starting at a new school. I was breakfast time
