Johnny’s side, and tugged at his arm.
“ Johnny wake up!” I whispered.
“ Lilz what are you doing?” Dan groaned laying in his bed.
“ Dan shut up I need to talk to Johnny right know!” I said tugging at Johnny’s arm again. I heard Dan get out of his bed, and he left the room.
“ Im going to go and play video games,” he groaned. I shooed him away, and I sat on the bed next to Johnny.
“ Joh-nny!” I cried. His eyes fluttered opened and he squinted at me.
“ Wh-at?” he said his voice sounding raspy.
“ Joh-nny, d- do y- y- you know w- what that boys name is that you saw?” I asked him.
He sat up in his bed more and looked at me confused.
“ Do you believe that I really saw someone?” he asked.
“ I believe you saw a ghost,” I said holding his arm.
Johnny nodded his head.
“ I can communicate with the dead, summon them, and all that. I didn’t want to tell you at first. I wanted you to try and figure it out on your own,” he did a little smile. I tried to smile but I felt my heart breaking inside. I took my other hand and held my necklace and closed my eyes.
“ Johnny… That boy you saw was Darien… My dead ex-boyfriend,” I whispered. Johnny’s eyes widened.
“ Why would he be trying to contact me?” Johnny sat up a little more and sat down next to me. He looked at me, and put his arm on my shoulder. “ there is something else that is bothering you,” he said. I looked up into his eyes, and nodded my head.
“ Last night…. You’re not the only one here that has… powers….” I mumbled.
“ So you found out about the others,” He laughed. I looked at him.
“ Others?” He looked at me. and shook his head.
“ Never mind… so who did you find out about?” he asked.
“ Is their more than one person to find out about?” I asked.
“ Well there is only one other person here that I kn-ow has special powers, and I think maybe others do,” He mumbled.
“ Who is the one that you kn-ow about?”
Johnny looked down, and we sat there for a couple of minutes.
“ Never mind Johnny you don’t have to tell me,” I smiled.
“ Ah just tell her Johnny boy, it’s not like I am anything special,” Dan came into the room and he shut the door behind him and sat across from us on his bed. Johnny looked at Dan and Dan looked at Johnny. Dan nodded his head, and Johnny turned to me.
“ Dan is a humanoid,” Johnny said.
I nodded my head and we sat there for a couple of minutes in silence.
“ Lilz?” Dan asked. I looked up at him.
“ hmmm?”
“ Do you know what a humanoid is?” he asked.
I shook my head.
“ no idea,” I let out a little laugh but my voice just cracked and sounded like a coughed.
“ I can transform into a cat-..” Dan started. I nearly jumped off the bed.
“ Gahah no way!” I shrieked. Dan gave me an irritated look and I sat back down. “ S- Sorry,” I smiled. He rolled his eyes and continued.
“ When I transform into a cat I can find anyone, and anything. I am a humanoid and that is what I do and who I am,” He said. I sat there for a couple of seconds trying to take this in. So River is really an angel.. wow there are three super naturals here so far, and if I can control earths elements do I make four? Oh what about the others.
“ Lilz?” Johnny asked. I looked at him.
“ Was Dan the one you knew about?” he asked. I shook my head.
“ No…. im not so sure if I should say his name though… I don’t think he wants us to know,” I whispered.
“ I respect that,” they both said.
“ Hey Johnny?” I asked.
“ Yeah?”
“ You said that you only knew about one person, but you thought others had.. powers… who were those others?” I asked.
“ Well I was thinking you,” he said. I sat there and looked at Dan who was looking at me.
“ W- What?” I mumbled.
“ Let’s go outside,” he smiled. Dan pulled me and Johnny off the bed, and had us follow him outside.
“ Marie we are going to go outside to get some fresh air. Open the door please?” Dan asked. Marie turned around and saw me and Johnny standing behind Dan. Marie gave a soft smile, and typed in the code. We walked outside, and went all the way to the back of the yard, and Dan stopped and me and Johnny stood their looking at one another.
“ Dan?” I muffled he turned to me.
“ yes?”
“ What in god’s name are we doing out here?” I questioned. A smirk came across his face.
“ Where going to see what you really are….”
And with that the little bastard kicked me in my shin……….
Chapter fifteen-
“ Wha! Tah! Dan what in god’s name! Are you nuts!” I cried holding my shin and jumping up and down. I was pissed that freaking hurt! The wind started to pick up some more Dan came closer to me, and he shoved me hardly and I hit the ground, and my anger filled my body and the wind picked up even more. I stood up and rubbed my arm. Dan came to take another step towards me, and I shot my hand up and a gush of wind shoved him back, and he went stumbling backwards.
“ Enough!” I yelled at him. He stood there and a stupid smile came across his face.
“ Alright,” he laughed. I brought my hand down and took a step back and nodded my head.
“ Good,” I said, and I rubbed my arm, and then wind slowly started to withdraw. He turned away, and started to leave, but then he stopped for a second.
“ Sorry,” he mumbled under his breath hardly audible.
“ Wha?” I asked. Within a second Dan came charging at me, and he knocked me back and I cut my arm open on a sharp piece of something. I let out a yelp, and the sky turned dark, and the wind blew everywhere. Lightening filled the air, and it sounded with thunder. I jumped up and stomped towards Dan.
“ What was that for!” I screamed and the wind pushed against Dan, and I took my hand, and flew it at him and the wind hit Dan right in the chest, and he fell back, and hit the ground. He let out a oomph, and I quickly withdrew my hand, and ran over to him.
“ Oh Dan im sorry! I didn’t mean to hurt you, oh but you were really pissing me off,” I said kneeling next to him. He let out a little cracked laugh, and stood up and looked at me for a couple of seconds. Dan had a smirk on his face, and I looked at him confused.
“ You’re an Aether,” he smiled.
Wait Wha-?
“ Say that again….?” I muttered.
“ You. An. Aether.” He said word by word.
I nodded my head.
“ What in the seven hells is an Aether?!?” I screeched. I sat down and started to freak out. I am a freak! Gahhhhhh!
“ Chill Lilz,” Dan laughed.
I sat there, and I looked down at the ground, and I bit my lip so I wouldn’t let out a scream.
“ Lilz a Aether is when a person is able to control the earths elements, and those four elements are earth, air, water, and fire, but the thing is, is you can’t control it. Whenever you become angry, your emotions make the weather change,” he smiled.
“ So that’s why you where pissing me off!” I muffled.
“ well ugh yeah,” he laughed. I scrunched up my face, and wrapped my shin and arm.
“ Well you didn’t have to be so ruff….” I hissed. He broke out into laughter’s, and he came and sat down next to me.
“ Lilz you can’t tell the doctors, or anyone that works here,” he looked at me seriously. “ if you tell them that they will just think you’re crazy, and keep you even longer,” he frowned and sat there for a couple of seconds lost in thought.
“ Dan,” I whispered. Dan and Johnny both looked at one another and then they both looked at me. “ What is this place?” I asked.
“ Wha- what do you mean?” Dan asked.
“ the three of us are all supernatural, and we are all in here… I mean come on… this place isn’t just for troubled teens…. What is this place, and why are we here?” I looked Dan and then at Johnny. Johnny stood up, and he walked across the yard and started to shoot basketball hoops. I looked over at Dan confused, and he sighed and started to rub his temples.
“ What’s wrong with Johnny?” I asked.
“ Johnny has been here for about a year know… but he didn’t come here alone. He originally came with his older brother James, and about three months ago James was taken out of here, well because he did some wrong things,” Dan drifted off.
“ What kind of wrong things?” I asked.
“ Well three months ago James snuck out of here and went to the grave yard, and he summoned the dead, and well the doctors sent him away. They told us he was sent to a hospital for kids that needed more treatment, but not even a day after he left Johnny saw him standing at the end of his bed. Johnny has been seeing his older brothers ghost,” Dan was looking me in the eyes, and I turned my body and looked at Johnny.
“ T- They killed James…” I said. Dan nodded his head.
“ I believe so. Johnny and I have been hiding our powers from the workers and doctors. We just agree with them about our illness which they say we have and we tell them we are getting better, so we could leave… I don’t know if the rest are like us… but ever since you mentioned it I truly believe everyone here is a supernatural,” Dan said
“ And if we get worse, and if they know we know about our powers they are going to transport us to the hospital… which is being killed….” I gasped. Dan nodded his head. “ Dan that aint right… this aint right!”
“ We gotta find out who else is supernatural here….” Dan said. I looked at him and nodded my head. Dan looked kind of weird. He looked drained.
“ Dan you OK?” I asked putting a hand on his shoulder.
“ I couldn’t get much sleep last night,” he whispered.
“ You should get to sleep,” I smiled. He let out a little chuckle and nodded his head and he got up and he walked into the house. I looked over at Johnny and he was chucking the ball at the hoop. I got up and made my way over to him, and placed my hand on his shoulder.
“ hey Johnny boy,” I smiled.
“ Hey Lilz….” He tried to smile.
I sleazed his shoulder a little and he turned to me.
“ They- they killed him Lilz… you think they killed him just because of his powers? Because
