The Power Within

Bonding

Bonding

May 25, 2020

He backed away slowly and fazed back through the door leaving me to stand there all alone again. A few moments later there was another knock on the door and I went to open it to find Ted standing there. "Ted: Are you coming or not"? He had a slick smile on his face, a smile that I did not like the look of but me being an idiot I went with him anyway. A few minutes had passed and we were still sneaking around for some reason I don’t know. I’m guessing because it’s like bedtime or something but either way we found ourselves on the roof of the school. He looked at me excited and for some reason I could feel it. Why do I have this weird connection with him? I wonder if he can feel it to. "Ted: Come on!"

He started to fly and headed for the trees. When he noticed I wasn’t following he stopped and looked at me slumped. "Me: Um, I can’t fly." "Ted: Have you ever tried? If not, I can at least try to teach you." Man did it make me happy someone actually wanted to help me with my powers instead constantly running away from me. I obviously shook my head yes at him and he flew down, grabbed me by the waist and flew into the trees. We flew around for about a minute or two until he stopped in the middle of this big entrance way with the trees surrounding the plot of land in a circle. The trees had this unique shape in them that I just can’t describe but yet it made me feel at peace. When we landed we just sat there and looked at our surroundings for a few moments. "Me: So, how did you come across this place? It seems pretty secluded."

He took a moment to gather what he had wanted to say, then finally spoke out. "Ted: I knew someone a long time ago that was able to control the elements. He did this in the aftermath of losing someone he greatly loved and did this to mourn after that he was never the same though. No matter how hard I tried I could never talk to him how I used to or even get him to smile. Even though I was the most powerful person here, I was still loved by everyone at the school. It all just went downhill after he took his life. It was like I could feel myself getting colder. I stopped talking to people and started to have sudden outbursts at random. So after all that people stopped hanging around me completely and just avoided me, afraid if I was going to jump out at them again. I guess it’s okay though. Your not afraid of me now are you?"

"Me: I guess not. Even less now since I know I can defeat you." Ted rolled his eyes in annoyance and playfully nudged me causing me to stumble a little bit. I didn’t mind though since he was actually a cool and laid back person. I mean yeah he is going through things but to be truthful we all are and because his old friends didn’t take the time to help him or stay by him just says how lousy people are here and can’t be trusted. But, I do feel like Ted is someone I can possibly trust. "Ted: Penny for your thoughts?" I looked at him and smiled. "Me: Oh, nothing just thinking about how your gonna teach me how to fly." He was staring me directly in the eyes with excitement but deep down I could feel how sad he got when I said that like he was expecting something else to happen. "Ted (sighs): Alright then, let’s get to it."
