New Power

I can't help but smile at what it says.

I lean forward and grab the laptop, re-reading what it says to make sure my eyes are not playing tricks on me, not that it is likely but hey anything is possible. When I realize that what it is saying is true, I yelp in excitement. Amylase opens my door slightly to see what had happened, I just reassured her that I was fine and I would tell her later, this satisfied her and she left. I rolled my eyes and opened up WhatsApp, namingly the family group chat. I quickly typed in a message to everyone, when I saw Serch's name on the list I frowned but I let it pass for just this once.

Me: Hey guys I have some amazing news to share with you guys.

Jimch: Oh please tell us.

Me: I am now Technopathic.

Jimch: ??? A what now?

Ashêanna: Seriously.

Mama: That's amazing.

Lenzonia: Who had to suffer to find that out?

Me: I was helping Amylase with prep. Saw her diary. Opps.

Mama: That's not good. Hey it could have been worse. Like how you found out that you could physically hack something.

Me: Yeah that was funny but the teacher wasn't very happy though, nor was the IT department to be fair.

Jimch: Can someone please tell me what a technopath is. Computing was never my strong suit.

Lenzonia: A technopath is someone with the ability to communicate with technology. I thought you knew a lot about technology from DC Cyborg.

Me: No, I was the only one to really know much about DC's comic book character Cyborg.

Mama: Okay, thank you for the news, now get to sleep.

Ashêanna: I am not tired.

Me: Same.

Mama: Ashêanna! Get to sleep! Now!

Me: Haha. I don't have to go to sleep until about 1 in the morning.

I put my phone down and watched BBC iPlayer on my account, I have to make sure to sign out if I do not want a repeat of last time. I am currently watching Doctor Who and I am nearly finished the entire thing. I find it really funny for some reason but not many other people do, I think it's the character's that I find funny. Tomorrow I am going to tell my friends the really good news, as both as a surprise and as a warning to be careful with what they put on there devices from now on.

The next day

The next day when I went to breakfast I couldn't find any of my friends. Maybe I was just too early for them. They normally arrive at about 7:40 and right now it is only 7:20, so I sat down and waited for them while eating my breakfast. It did not feel the same, it wasn't as good without them. I keep on looking up at the clock but 7:40 came and went without any sign of my friends. I ended up leaving without getting to tell them, but when I was about to leave the building I saw my friends walk through the door.

"What took you guys so long to get here. You only have 5 minutes until 8 o'clock." I say pointing up at the clock. They all look at me as if they are angry about something. "What have I done wrong now?"

"You haven't done anything wrong. We're just tired. Also we are busy helping matron with something."

"With what? I am normally the one that helps her and you all know that."

"With something that you do not need to know about. Also what did you want to speak to us about, when you texted us it seemed quite urgent like you had to tell us."

"Well Ashêanna already knows since I told her and my family last night. They were all really happy for me and told me that I had to tell you. I am now technopathic." I say as a smile spreads across my face.

"That's amazing. How did you find out."

"She was helping me with my prep when she saw everything that was on my laptop. It was annoying and cool at the same time. Also I recommend getting really hard to hack firewalls. I mean ones that not even the FBI can hack for everything you don't want other people to know."

"I've hacked Area 51. I don't think that there is anything I CAN'T hack. So I would request printing or writing anything you don't want me to know but anyway I am getting the hang of it. Trust me. You won't get hacked by me." I look off at something and then back at them. "Well not without reason."

"Good. Now come on we don't want to be late to the house meeting, Mr Kent hates it." Riley says patting my back.

"Yeah, see you at the house meeting." Then I disappear. My friends just stare at where I was standing before having to walk back. House meeting was quite boring but then again it is normally. There isn't always something fun to talk about, but I did tell everyone. I had to warn them, didn't I?

Later

I was in English and we were having to use laptops to type up our creative stories. Andrew was placed beside me for some reason and I could tell by the look on his face that he wanted to hurt me, he just knew that instead of me getting hurt by it that he would. I kept looking over his shoulder but I really didn't want to. I certainly wanted to do a tap but that would be nosy and I have no reason to do it. He hasn't done anything wrong and he hasn't been annoying me.

Then it hit me. Andrew kept on looking over at me with a murderous glare. Andrew was the one that came up with the idea of the dare that made me who I am today. Andrew was the reason my father was dead. Andrew wants to kill me. But to get him in trouble I needed proof. So, when Andrew wasn't looking I placed my hand on his laptop and downloaded a copy of everything that was on it onto my subnet then I continued on writing my story.

Lucky he didn't realise or maybe he did and didn't tell the teacher. So maybe he isn't so bad after all. Though after class he comes up to me and he isn't looking so happy, so maybe he isn't as nice as I thought. I mockingly put up my hands when I saw the look on his face and backed up against the wall. "Hey, is something wrong, Andrew?" I ask him nicely, not wanting to harm him. Treat people the way you want to be treated, right.

"You tapped into my computer, didn't you?" He asked raising his fists.

"Now I would only do that within reason."

"You didn't answer my question. Did you tap into my computer?"

"You have no way of knowing if I am lying or not and even so you would only believe me if I said I did. For you just want to get me into trouble. Now if we are done here I would like to go to class." I smile at him and he laughs.

"It's break time and you know that, now tell me if you did or did not."

"I already told you my answer." I smile at him and start to walk away just for him to reach out at my shoulder. Just before he can touch me my arm swings around and grabs his lifting him up and slamming onto the ground. I back away slightly, no meaning to do what I just did. "Now go and don't tell anyone about this."

"It was your fault." He growled as he stood up and clenched his teeth. "Now you will pay for that. No one hurts me not even a goddess and gets away with it." He runs at me and stick out my leg and he slams his face. I bend down and look into his eyes.

"No, Andrew it was not my fault, it was yours. I had warned you about my powers but you chose not to listen to my warning. This is all on you." He looked at me and threw a punch which somehow actually hit me. I just shake it off and then my cybernetics fought back without me realising.

The next thing I knew was me sitting down on the ground with Andrew beside me and a teacher and my matron sitting in front of us. Andrew's nose was broken beyond repair and he had a large gut and burn marks with I deduced was from me electrocuting him. I also saw that his ears were bleeding, chances are that was from a sonic cannon.

"So, what were you fighting about?"

"He just came up to me and asked me if I had done something, I said I hadn't and then he started fighting me. I didn't want to and then my cybernetics took over. I don't remember anything after that." I told them. The teacher nodded and my matron went down beside me to see if anything was wrong, and why I didn't remember. "It is very normal for me not to remember what happened when my cybernetics take control. I remember when I boot up at night. So I think you should worry on Andrew whom has had the raft of my cybernetics when I am threatened. I did warn him, in fact I warned everyone about what would happen."

The teacher faced Andrew with a very upset face. He looked up at her and he was slightly scared. "So, why did you attack Atchaco when she had told you so many times that it would not end well." Andrew did not reply. "Reply to me when I speak to you." I looked at his face, he was generally confused about what the teacher was saying. I went and tapped the teacher on the shoulder. He turned towards me with an eyebrow raised. "What is it?"

"I do not believe that he can hear you talk. I mean if I shot him with my sonic cannon then it will take about 2 hours for him to get his hearing back." He looked at me and rolled his eyes. Once he finally knew what I was trying to say he looked shocked and angry. "It was not on purpose. I only think I did because his ears are bleeding which is a sure sign. Luckily I did not put it high enough to kill him." He looked at me in shock. "Yeah, if I can put it high enough then I can kill people." He shrugged his shoulders and let me go after matron said I was fine. Then I went straight to my next lesson.
