said<br/><br/><br/>"Bro, I think, Alder knows, no Alder knows" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"Shit shit shit shit"<br/><br/><br/>"Jeez man that's not good" Flynn said <br/><br/><br/>"I could lose my job, and like everything, even my spot in this university" Rai said <br/><br/><br/>"Maybe you just gotta convince him you did it for the greater good" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"No, Flynn he specifically warned me, not to help that woman" Rai said <br/><br/><br/>"Well, maybe he just doesn't know what's out there" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"No, no he knows, Charlotte almost killed him when he was around my age" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Oh well, maybe it'll be a bit harder" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"She doesn't seem like she would kill a kid though" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, that's probably because she's nearly half dead" Rai said <br/><br/><br/>"Well, man don't worry about it, you felt this was something you needed to do, so don't question it, you're helping a boy get his mom back" Flynn said <br/><br/><br/>"I hope I did the right thing" Rai said<br/><br/><br/><br/>"Hey, Rai, hey Flynn" August said<br/><br/><br/>"Wassup, August" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"Hey, August" Rai

giggled<br/><br/><br/>"Here's the science lab" She said <br/><br/><br/>"Wait a minute" Flynn said <br/><br/><br/>"I'm sorry but you look really familiar" he said<br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, you kinda do" August said <br/><br/><br/>"Wait you're that waitress girl" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"Wait what how did you guys know I was a waitress" She said<br/><br/><br/>"Uhh, I was that asshole guy" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"I don't seem to remember" She said<br/><br/><br/>"The guy that was continuously making you uncomfortable" He said<br/><br/><br/>"There's hundreds of guys who do that every day" She said <br/><br/><br/>"Wait, you were the guy who was ordering for your friends, oh I remember now" She said<br/><br/><br/>"I'm sorry about that, really" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"Eh, I don't care about that" She said <br/><br/><br/>"So you quit your job" August asked<br/><br/><br/>"Well I was working it to get enough money for a ticket to come here" She said <br/><br/><br/>"So yeah" She said <br/><br/><br/>"So you're majoring in Science ehh" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"Awesome subject" She said <br/><br/><br/>"Nah I don't know about that, I hated it in school" August said picking up an iron rod<br/><br/><br/>Flhhhhhhh<br/><br/><br/>The rod flew across the room and out of the window<br/><br/><br/>"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"I better fix this" The girl said bending the window back to its former state<br/><br/><br/>"Woah woah woa, WHAT IS GOING ON" Rai asked<br/><br/><br/>"You two have powers" Rai asked<br/><br/><br/>"That was awesome" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"I didn't even know" August said<br/><br/><br/>"How did I do that" <br/><br/><br/>"Uhm, yeah I do" The girl said<br/><br/><br/>"What the heck" Rai said<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>"Alright, alright, August how did you not know" Rai asked<br/><br/><br/>"I don't know, I that never happened before" He said<br/><br/><br/>"And that girl, why what in the world, this is confusing" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"I'm going to ask my dad about this" August said<br/><br/><br/>"Wow, all of you guys are soo cool I wish I had powers" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"Anyway, we gotta get Rai outta trouble" He said <br/><br/><br/><br/>Ring Ring<br/><br/><br/>"Afternoon Rai" Alder said<br/><br/><br/>"So you gonna run out on me like you, did this morning, what the hell were you doing in Canada" Alder asked<br/><br/><br/>"I was, I was trying to-<br/><br/><br/>"He was trying to heal my mother, I was down and sad, I almost killed this bright blue eyed kid over it, Don't blame Rai, blame me" August said<br/><br/><br/>"Blame me too, I was the one who planned the trip to Canada, I couldn't bear to see August so sad, if there was something I could do to help I had too" Flynn said<br/><br/><br/>"So don't blame him"<br/><br/><br/>"It seems you boys have each other's backs, which is a good thing, but Rai you disobeyed me, and lied to me" Alder said<br/><br/><br/>"I can't have someone like that working in my store" Alder said <br/><br/><br/>"But, lucky for you, I did the same exact stuff you did, even worse" He said<br/><br/><br/>"I once killed for a girl" He said <br/><br/><br/>"So, how can I hold this against you, you felt it was right" Alder said <br/><br/><br/>"Now get to work" He said slamming a book down<br/><br/><br/>"Wow, we did it" they said<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Knock Knock<br/><br/><br/>"Hello, oh hello, August how was school" Nicholas said<br/><br/><br/>"It's university dad, but it was cool" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Oh, how's your mom" He asked<br/><br/><br/>"She's doing phenomenally better" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, I'm going to want to see her, when she is fully better" He said <br/><br/><br/>"I know I know, but uh dad I have a question" August asked<br/><br/><br/>"Did you unknowingly, give me powers" August asked<br/><br/><br/>"Why is that" He asked<br/><br/><br/>"Because I touched some iron today, and I literally nearly killed someone" He said <br/><br/><br/>"And then another strange thing happened with a girl" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Oui, you finally got a girl you're talking to, is she cute" He asked<br/><br/><br/>"Dad, what no, no that's not important and no, I literally bent iron today, what's going on" August asked<br/><br/><br/>"Son, I did give you powers, when I gave you that hug, I knew you were my son, this is the boy I had to leave, and the man I now came back to" He said <br/><br/><br/>"I know I should've told you, but I just had to wait, I didn't want you getting scared" He said<br/><br/><br/>"But dad, I can't have powers, I'm somewhat like mom when she was evil" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Son, no you're not, you're nothing like her" Nicholas said<br/><br/><br/>"You, are August now, not me not your mom, not anyone, but you" He said <br/><br/><br/>"I'm very proud of who you have become, so very proud son" He said <br/><br/><br/>"Thanks, dad" August said <br/><br/><br/>"I guess I should make it back to mom, then" August said leaving<br/><br/><br/>"If you ever need help navigating your newfound powers, son I'm here" He said<br/><br/><br/>"Alright"<br/><br/><br/><br/>"Hey mom" August said <br/><br/><br/>"Hello, son was university good" She asked<br/><br/><br/>"It was nice"he said<br/><br/><br/>"Make sure you're taking the medicine mom, I gotta run over to Rai's really quick" He said<br/><br/><br/>Knock Knock<br/><br/><br/>"Jeez who tf is that" Rai said putting his book down<br/><br/><br/>"Damn, August why you knocking like that, you trying to take my door out too" Rai said<br/><br/><br/>"No, man I'm just asking, what tf are we going to do about that girl" August asked<br/><br/><br/>"I don't know I was going to ask Alder, but maybe she doesn't want her information out like that" Rai Said<br/><br/><br/>"She was real cute too" August said<br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, that's why we helped her. Good thing we were thinking like that" He said <br/><br/><br/>"Wait so why do you have powers" Rai asked<br/><br/><br/>"Because, my dad gave me a hug and unknowingly have me powers" He said <br/><br/><br/>"Wow that's interesting" He said <br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, of course if I have questions, I'll ask him" He said <br/><br/><br/>"This feels wrong, we should invite Flynn over" August said<br/><br/><br/>"Yeah, he's our guy" Rai said getting the phone<br/><br/><br/>"I'll tell his happy ass to get a pizza" Rai said <br/></p>
