Gifted Abilities is a series of fics that Smeag and I will be doing. There will be various plotlines and fics, some written by me, some written by Smeag, some written together. It is about a girl who is in a chemical accident at her school which causes her and some people she comes in contact with to get super powers. This is the beginning fic, and bits and peices of it will be posted every now and then.

Well, here we go...Enjoy.


Dominick looked out the window in his room, which gave a nice veiw of the park across the street. But it wasn't the quiet, friendly looking park he always looked at. A car had slammed into a tree, apparently hard. The police, the medics, everyone was there. He had to check it out. He shut his window and ran out of the house and torwards the park. Then started asking around. A woman told him that the police had checked the car, and there was no body. And there was nobody hurt near the car either. Reports were being filed, searches were being called. Dominick decided to search around town personally and see what he could find.

After two hours of looking around, Dom decided to call it quits. He went home and watched the news, no one else had found the person either. "Odd...." he thought, taking a drink of the pepsi he had just gotten. As he was putting the cup down, he heard his dog barking in the backyard, loud and feirce. So he went to see what was going on. He opened the backdoor, and laying a couple inches away from Chomper, his beagle, was a young girl, around his age.

ONE WEEK EARLIER.
"Oh shut up." Kayden laughed, shoving Ted with a friendly push as they neared the Lab.
"So why are we going here again?" Ted asked.
"I didn't finish my stats on the chemicals." Kayden answered. "And I can't afford another F, or detention."
The two of them entered the Lab. Beakers, test tubes, basically everything a Lab needs, was there. Ted slipped his backpack off and Kayden started getting the equipment she needed.
"I hope you hurry." Ted said. "We're bound to get caught if we stick around to long."
"Don't rush me!" Kayden said, pouring different liquids and chemicals into beakers, and writing stuff down on paper.
"Maybe one more F wouldn't be so bad, Kayden." Ted said, wanting to leave.
"I'll fail the semester." Kayden argued. 'I'm almost done, now be quiet!"
She was getting aggrivated. Ted was her best friend, but he was getting on her nerves. She wanted to take her time and not mess up, and she would rather be here then at home.
"Hurry!" Ted snapped. "I think I hear footsteps."
At that, Kayden panicked, and hit one of the beakers with her elbow. It fell and shattered, the liquids in it spraying everywhere. She tripped and fell on the table, causing other beakers to fall and break. Ted hit the emergency showers, panicking as well.
"Oh gosh..." Ted panicked.
"Shut up and help me!" Kayden screamed.
The water from the showers mixed with the chemicals all over the lab, and shot up, spraying both Kayden and Ted.
"I can't get the door open." Ted said, pulling hard.
He stepped on a peice of beaker glass, which shot through his foot and made hijm fall right in the water/chemical mess. Kayden tripped over his leg and went down also.
They both shot up, rubbing the stuff out of their eyes.
"Let's slam into the door together." Kayden said. "NOW!"
They both slammed into it, and the door fell. They both collapsed on the hallway floor, knocked out.

Beep, beep.
The continous beeping noise woke Kayden up, and she immediatly studied her surroundings. She was in a hospital room, a hospital bed. "she wakes." Said a nurse, walking torwards the bed. "How are you feeling?"
Kayden ignored the question, but asked one of her own. "Where's Ted?"
"He's here." Said the nurse. "Your lucky the janitor found you when he did. How are you feeling?" She repeated her question.
"I'm fine." Kayden answered. "I want to see Ted."
"You don't hurt or feel bad at all?" the nurse said.
"No." Kayden replied. "Can I see Ted, please? I'm fine, really."
The nurse sighed. "Alright, if your sure."


Kayden entered the room the nurse had led her to and gasped. Ted was laying on the bed, passed out. He was very pale and sickly looking. and his foot was wrapped up from where he had cut it.
"Ted?" Kayden murmered, hardly beleiving what she was seeing. She walked slowly torwards him, and sat down in the chair beside the bed.
"Ted..." She murmered again. A tear rolled down her cheek. It was all her fault. She made Ted go in the lab with her, she wouldn't listen to him when he wanted to leave, she hit the beakers.
"He has been having trouble breathing." the nurse said, walking in. "And his foot is infected."
"Did I get this pale?" Kayden asked, looking at Ted.
"No." The nurse replied. "Honestly, we've never seen anyone this pale."
"Is he...going to die?" Kayden said, trying to hold back tears.
"We don't know." the nurse said. She walked over to Kayden and put her hand on her shoulder. "Your dad is here to pick you up."
Kayden sighed heavily. She had no desire to see her dad, and she wanted to stay with Ted. But she saw no way of avoiding the subject. She hugged Ted and walked off with the nurse, taking one last glance at Ted.
"I'm sorry..." She whispered.

"Don't even say anything." Kayden said to her dad as they drove off.
Her dad simply flicked her cheek and laughed.
Kayden slapped him.
"You better watch it, girl." he said. "Or you'll be walking."
"I'd rather walk then be with you." She replied.
He pulled over and stopped the car.
"Get." he said.
Kayden unbuckled and opened the car door, her dad laughed and she got out. Leaving the door open, she ran off.


Thoughts raced through her mind as she started the long walk home. Her dad was a jerk, her best friend was sick. She could only think about how miserable life was.It was a cold night, she zipped her coat up put the hood over her head. After a few minutes of walking, she began to feel dizzy. "Weird..." She thought, it wore off, but after another few minutes, it came back. She just figured it had something to do with the accident, but she didn't complain. "I'm no where near as bad off as Ted..." she thought.
When she got home, her dad was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Have a nice walk?" he asked.
She didn't answer.
"Answer me, girl." He said.
Still no answer, she merely grabbed a can of pop from the fridge.
Her dad turned the TV off and stood up.
"You better answer me."
Still no answer.
He went up to her and flicked her on the cheek. She hated being flicked more then anything. She took the pop can and threw it in his face. It cut his cheek and sprayed all over him.
"Oh you've done it now." He said.
"NO!" she screamed. She punched him and he went flying into the TV Stand, knocking him out.
"Oh my goodness." She said, looking at her now knocked out father.
She ran to the table and grabbed her dad's keys.
"I got to get out of here."

"Where ye headin'" The old man at the register asked. "At this time at night, someone yer age."
Kayden put the candybar on the counter and started pulling change out of her pocket.
"Is it really any of your business?" She replied, handing him the money.
"Well, no. But..." he started, but Kayden stopped him.
"I didn't think so." She said, taking the candy bar and walking out to her car.
She usually wasn't so mean to people, but she really wasn't in the mood to be questioned. Her best friend was deathly sick, she knocked out her dad, needless to say she wasn't having the best night of her life.

She drove down the highway, not knowing where she was going. All she knew was that she had to get away from Melwood, the city she had lived in all of her life. Suddenly, the diziness came back and she started driving slower. But it wasn't helping the situation. She didn't want to pull over, she had to get away, fast. The diziness would not go away, and she swurved over to the other lane. Her head fell on the horn, and it blew, waking her up just in time to get away from a huge 4 wheel drive truck. She panicked and drove off the highway, onto a quieter road that led to a small town called Maple Springs. It was 30 or 40 miles off, but Kayden decided that was as far as she could go at that point.

She parked under a tree on the side of the road and locked the doors, wanting to take a few minutes to make sure they dizziness had fully worn off. Tears rolled down her cheeks, she couldn't get the "Everything is your fault" thought out of her head and she was quite sure it was going to drive her insane. She decided she would have to stop feeling sorry for herself and think up an actual plan. "Maple Springs isn't to far away, but not to close to Melwood either." She figured. "I can lay low there for awhile, and plan more out...."
She didn't know exactly what she was doing. she knew running away from her problems wouldn't work in the end, but what else was there at this point?

It was 12:30 in the morning when Kayden finally pulled herself together, but she decided that she was to tired to drive. "I'll hide the car in the trees and brush, and just sleep for an hour or two..." She put the car in gear and started to turn, when another car pulled up behind her. A young man, about her age, walked up to her window, he looked harmless, and he was definately not someone she knew. She rolled the window down.
"..Hi." She murmered.
"You headin to the Springs?" the boy asked.
"Uhm, no, I'm just driving this way..." Kayden replied.
"At this time of night?" He said.
"Yeah, I'm...In a hurry, i just pulled over to..eat." Kayden was uneasy, and wanted him to leave. "Who are you?" she asked.
"Name's Drake." Drake answered. "And you?"
Kayden hesitated. "...Jane" She lied.
"Do you need help, Jane?" Drake said.
"No, I'm fine. What are you doing out so late?"
"Friday night. My friend and I always stay up late and watch a movie late at night. The Springs however did not have the movie availible anywhere, the only place open is in Melwood, up that way."
"Oh, yeah..." Kayden said.
"well, I best get going." Drake said. "You be careful."
"I will."
Drake got in his car and drove off. Kayden sighed.

Drip. Drip.
Rain was pouring down, Kayden opened her eyes.
"Oh no, I slept to much."
She turned on the car and looked at the clock in the car.
"1:30 PM?!" she thought.
She drove the car out from behind it's hiding place and went down the road, heading right into Maple Springs.

The dizzy feeling once again came to her as she entered town, but this time, it was stronger.
"No..." her mind was racing, all the horrible thoughts from the past couple days flooded in. Her head was pounding.
Her head slammed into the wheel and she passed out.

"My ball!" a young boy hollered. He had been playing catch with his friend and the ball landed in the road. He ran to get it but his friend stopped him when a car, going way to fast, darted down the road. It hit the ball and it popped, and knocked the car into the direction of the park across the street. The Car slammed into a tree and the two boys ran into the first boy's house to get help.

The impact of the wreck woke Kayden, but she was still dizzy. Seeing that she had wrecked, she quickly opened the door and fell out. Her face was coated in blood and so were her clothes, but she was determined not to get caught. If she was caught, it would all be over. She ran as fast as she could and saw people running to the now totaled car, which was in her direction. She panicked and ran behind a house that was directly on the other side of the road from the park. She made it to the backyard, but all her energy was gone. She noticed a dog tied up right where she was standing and waved at it. "Good doggie..." she murmered, and she collapsed.

"Where am I?"
Kayden opened her eyes. Was all of that just a dream? No...It couldn't be. It had to be real. She looked down at her shirt.
"Dry blood...Car Accident..."
She looked around. She was in someone else's house! She jerked up, gasping. A boy, around her age, was sitting at a desk on the other side of the room working on something. He heard her gasping and turned around.
"Your awake." he said.
"Who are you?" She asked immediately.
"Dominick...Dom." He answered. "Who are you?"
"Jane." She lied again.
"The medics are on their way, Jane."
"Are you insane?!" She said, rolling off the couch and grunting from the pain searing through her body.
"What are you doing?!" Dom said. "Your hurt!"
He ran to help her but she jumped up.
"Stay away from me." she said.
A knock came at the door.
"Their here." He said.
"Send them away!" Kayden insisted.
"Listen to yourself!" Dom replied, hesitating. "Your hurt. And by the way your acting you really hit your head."
"Do you have a back door?" Kayden asked.
"What?"
"A back door."
"Your not leaving." Dom said. Another knock at the door.
"Fine." Kayden said, sitting down. "Go answer the door, ruin my life."
Dom looked at her, but didn't answer. He walked out of the room and to the door. Who was this girl? And should he send the medics away?
As he neared the front door, Kayden quietly headed for the back door.
Dom opened the door.
"Kira? What are you doing here?"

(Since Balathor is not the biggest fan in character delevopment, he asked me to take up the task in posting for him right now. So, I graciously took on this task with the intention to bring you very dynamic and realistic, but interesting, characters in Gifted Abilities.)
