Chapter 2 - New Home

In this world magic exists but only 90% of humans have magic. The other 10% is left with no magic. People with magic get to have more job options than people with no magic. Most of the jobs on Earth require a person to have some sort of power. The 10% of people often become homeless or they struggle to survive.

Elizabeth's mother, Amanda, is part of the 10%. Amanda's father, William, has fire power and he works as a bodyguard for a very rich, powerful, and evil person.

When Elizabeth was waiting at the police station she overheard a man and woman talking about how they feel sympathy for Elizabeth because her father and mother died. Elizabeth heard this and was shocked because she thought her father and mother were still alive. She was later sent to an orphanage.

Between the ages of 6 to 10 she was in a good orphanage. Now 10 year old Elizabeth found a new family that is willing to adopt her.

Elizabeth practices her magic to cope with the loss of her parents. She had to move from Los Angeles to San Diego to be with her new family. Her new 'family' treats her badly.

They never really paid attention to her but since they are getting money to take care of her, they adopted her. Elizabeth was made fun of by her sister or what she called her, goblin. The goblin is Emily and her brother is Samael. They both have ice power but they don't know how to control it yet. Her mother's name is Betty and her father's name is Alex.

"Hey! Beth!" shouted Emily,"Mama said that YOU are going to stay after school because your grades are bad!" Emily smirked and put her hands on her hips.

Elizabeth was sitting down with her blue and pink princess dolls. She was lucky that Emily didn't want her two toys."Haha! You are a loser! Loser!" Emily continued to laugh and walked away.

Emily had dark brown hair and her skin looked as pale as a ghost and her hair was down. She had been homeschooled and was sheltered. Her eyes weren't that big but beautiful. Her dress was a plain yellow color. Her undershirt was white and had sleeves that reached to her wrist. Her shoes looked like doll shoes and were the color black. Her lips looked pinkish, overall a pretty girl.

She walked towards her brother who was sitting down on the couch and was watching 'Magic Class.'

He was wearing a black shirt with white words that said 'Cool Dude.' He had short sleeves. His pants are navy blue with pockets on the side. His shoes are black and short. His hair was brown but when the light shines on it, it becomes red.

"What Em," Samael said with an annoyed voice,"I am busy! Can't you see!" Emily bit her lip and made a mad expression."I CAN see! You lazy brother!" "Hey! I am not 'lazy!' You are!" "No I am NOT!" she shouted loud.

They started to argue. They called each other 'lazy brother,' a 'wannabe,'and much more.

'These names they were calling each other match their personality,' thought Elizabeth. She watched as the two argued until Betty and Alex came in.

Alex watched the two fight but didn't do or say anything. Betty looked annoyed at them but said nothing.

'Whenever I do something I get in trouble!' thought Elizabeth,'How come they don't get in trouble when they do something bad?' Elizabeth was annoyed that Betty and Alex didn't do anything. Elizabeth wanted to call them out but she knew she would get in trouble. She sighed and went back to playing.

She usually sleeps on the couch because Emily doesn't want to share her bed. When it is breakfast, lunch, and dinner she has to go make herself food. She had to go and buy clothes for herself since Betty doesn't. Elizabeth only had three pairs of clothes. Elizabeth was able to buy clothes because her magic is to make things.

She dreams that someday she would be with her parents. She missed them dearly and hated that she was stuck with Betty and Alex.

When she would tell her friends about her problem they would just say,'You are lucky to even have people adopt you,' or,'Other kids have it more bad than you.' Elizabeth knew others had it worse than her but she still didn't like her life.

Her 'friends' stopped being friends with her because of her problems. Then rumors were spread around the school saying that,'Elizabeth is spoiled,' or 'See that girl she cares only for herself.' Elizabeth didn't show her sadness towards anyone at school. When she would get home she would hide in her hidden door. Then she would cry herself to sleep.

One day when Elizabeth, Betty, and Samael went to go shopping for video games they got into a car crash. It happened so suddenly. Samael didn't make it. Betty and Alex blamed Elizabeth and would tell her that she should have died instead of Samael.

After that, she was used to the rumors about her and the bullying she had to face and the name calling. Over time her magic grew stronger when she would get mad or sad. She figured out that her magic is more powerful when she doesn't feel anything. She could create different magic and different things. She stopped buying clothes and instead created clothes instead.

Emily never stopped bullying Elizabeth. Emily started to go to Elizabeth's school and was very popular. She was only popular because of her looks which made Elizabeth feel sympathy towards her.

Elizabeth is now 15 years old and Emily is 14 years old. Whenever Elizabeth does something Emily doesn't like, she makes more rumors about her. Since Emily is the 'popular' girl people started to hit Elizabeth for hitting Emily. Elizabeth never hit Emily but that was the type of rumors that spread around. People would pour water on her, push her, hit her, call her names, and nobody ever helped her. She was lucky that nobody used their powers on her. They all thought she didn't have magic and was weak.

Elizabeth didn't care what they did or what they called her. She still just wanted to be with her parents again. She knew she would never see them because they were dead. Betty and Alex never let her visit her parents grave which made Elizabeth depressed.

She grew hatred for humanity and her so-called 'family'. The only thing that she lived for was a pet cat that she would see.

She would feed and pet this cat. She named this cat after her mother, Amanda. She felt so happy with the cat by her side.

"Hey slut wash the dishes." Betty told Elizabeth without making eye contact. They stopped getting money to take care of Elizabeth when she reached the age of 16, so they just kept her to be like a 'maid.' Elizabeth said nothing and went to wash the dishes. Emily was out with friends and Alex was working. Betty looked awful and looked like she was 44 but was actually 35.

Elizabeth's expression was emotionless. Then something came over her. She started thinking things.'If I kill Betty when Alex and Emily are home then Alex would be blamed for the death of Betty.' Elizabeth's eyes widened. A smile appeared on her face. She smiled after 7 years. She finished washing the dishes and went to her hidden door.

She went inside her hidden door where she had her bed. Her bed looked like a big dog's bed. There were fairy lights around the walls. The room was small but a good size for her, she was 5 feet. There was a carpet on the ground. All the things in her room were blue and pink. She had pictures of her, her mom, and father. Her blue and pink princesses were on her bed. She sat down and started to plan how she was going to kill Betty and frame Alex.
