Chapter 2 Part 1

Noah was quickly awakened by Emma being an early riser and very energetic this morning. This was the complete opposite then how she acted yesterday but he was too tired to think much of it. Troy was still sleeping on the hard wooden ground with Maverick now on top of him. Noah was amazed at how peacefully they were sleeping. He got up from the couch, he figured it would be a good opportunity to talk with Emma right now.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. Did I wake you?" Emma asked as Noah sat down at the table where she was.

"No," he lied.

"I see. Well I don't have any food here to make breakfast but maybe someone in town will be kind enough to lend us some money if you're hungry," Emma suggested.

"No, I'm fine." Troy walked over to the table as well once he got up, Maverick followed behind him.

"So Emma?" Troy got her attention, "Why do you live in this abandoned house?"

"I really don't have anywhere else to go and the people in town usually have small one time jobs that earn me lunch." Troy still had £3 on him and decided he would buy breakfast.

"Where are you going?" Emma asked as he was starting to walk out the door.

"I'm getting breakfast!" He yelled as he started running into town with Maverick chasing after him. Emma got up to close the door because Troy didn't bother to before he left. After that she went back to join Noah at the table again.

"Do you feel up to explaining this morning?"

"There's nothing to explain," Noah said, wanting to avoid the topic.

"There most certainly is," Emma said as she looked him straight in the eyes. Noah was hesitant at first but knew that Emma wouldn't drop the question so he decided to just answer.

"I was raised in a lab. Their main goal was to find 3 more people that were like me that existed somewhere in the world because they lost control of us when we were children. Not me though. They found me and put me through hell. I didn't want to say anything because I knew that if they found you and Troy then they would hurt you too." Emma looked at him and payed close attention with what he was saying.

"So Troy and I have powers like you?" Emma asked.

"Not exactly like mine, but yes. I can't tell what yours are though. From information that the lab told me, you have the element of fire, water, or earth." Emma wasn't really surprised. the world was filled with people who possessed powers. Just then Troy came back with three bacon butty for their breakfast.

"Hay mates, I'm back," he said as he sat down at the table with them and handed them their food. "So what are we talking about?"

"Noah was explaining to us how we are like him," Emma informed. Troy looked at Noah signaling for him to continue.

"You two kinda look similar," Noah went on. "They said there were twins who had the elements of earth and water because Earth can't survive without water."

"Are you saying we're related?" Troy asked as he aggressively ate his food, Emma gave him a mean look.

"It's just a theory," Noah said.
