I tell John about how I used Animal manipulation to save my friends. He surprisingly wasn't that mad. Don't get me wrong, he was pissed, but not as mad as I thought he would be.

"(Y/N). Do now how bad this is? Isen is the head of the school newspaper! If things were to get out-"

"I know. I'm sorry. I will try to talk to them."

He hugs me.

"I just don't want to lose you again."

"I know."

I stay at John's dorm, not wanting to run into Remi at my dorm. She is most likely waiting for me there.

The next day I finally build up the courage to go to my dorms. Well it really wasn't courage, more like the need to get out of my bathing-suit.

When I walk into the dorm, Remi is running around frantically getting together what look like spa supplies.

"Oh (Y/N)! Thank goodness your here!"

"Uh hi."

She is acting completely normal. Did she forget?

"So Blyke kida asked me out on a date. You were right. It is in uh 3 hours and I need help getting ready."

I stand there in silence before breaking out laughing.

"I KNEW IT!!! HA! I knew it! I knew it! I KNEW IT!"

She grabs my shoulders to keep me from jumping up and down.

"This is serious. Celebrate all you want later. I need help."

"Ok. I am going to make so that he cant keep his hands of you."

She giggles and we start the spa stuff. She already took a shower before I got here. Her hair was wrapped in a towel and she was dressed in a robe. I applied a cucumber face mask and do her nails. While I was with my mother, she would force me to perfect the art of taking care of nails because she said it was of utmost importance to maintain perfect "Paws and claws". I painted my nails Blue a few days ago, and they are already due for a new coat.

As we wait for them to dry, we sit there in silence.

"Why did you lie about your ability?"

Wow. Way to get straight to the point.

"Um, uh. It's hard to explain."

"What even is your ability?"

Leave me alone!

"OK. I will tell you only if you swear you will not tell a soul. You have to promise me. If this gets out, then it will be bad."

"I promise. You can trust me (Y/N)."

I sigh and the timer goes off. I start to take off the face mask.

"You know how John has the ability of aurora manipulation?"

"Yeah?"

"Well I have that except I keep the abilities I copy. But it comes at a cost."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you remember me having the huge gash on my back?"

"Yeah. You fell down the stairs."

"No I didn't. That was the effect of gaining an ability. My body can't hold past twelve abilities so every time I gain a new one, my body retaliates."

I tun around and lift up my shit to reveal my back, which is engulfed in scars. She gasps. I put my shirt back on and continue to take her mask off.

"The stronger the ability, the bigger and deeper the cut. If I were to gain two abilities, than I would have more severe side effects. More than two in a week, I would die. I can only gain more than two abilities if I gain them a week apart."

"Whoa."

She sits there in silence.

"Why would you do this to your body?"

"I didn't want to. My mother forced me to copy any ability she could get her hands on. She wanted to use me to become a weapon. To kill anyone she didn't like. That's why I ran away to find John."

"Who exactly is your mom?"

I wipe off the last of the face mask.

"A monster."

We didn't talk much, until like 30 minutes after. She starts fangirling about stuff and starts talking about how hot Blyke is. I just sit there and listen.

I do her hair and makeup. Another thing my mother thought was important. I apply a light pink eye shadow and pink lipstick. I pull her hair into a half-up half-down crown braid.

She picks out her outfit, a white and pink dress. I give her my brown wedges that I don't wear anymore because I don't like heals.

I check her over before I give her the thumbs up. We have 10 minutes before Blyke is supposed to get here. I put on grey sweatpants, a star wars shirt, and slippers. I pack an overnight bag because I was planning on going to John's dorm.

"(Y/N)are you sure you will be ok by yourself?"

"I'm going to John's dorm.I'll be fine."

"Ok."

She gives me a hug.

"I am so sorry for prying into your personal life."

"It's fine. You would've found out one day."

Saying that your brother was on my mothers hit list. I would've fought my mother to protect you guys.

There was a knock on the door. I fix anything that looks out of place and give her the thumbs up.

"Go get em' tiger."

She giggles and opened the door. Blyke is standing there, blushing like crazy.

"Wow you look, amazing."

"Thank you. (Y/N) is amazing. She did everything."

"Well my mom insisted that I master the arts of makeup, hair, and mani-pedis. She said it one of the most important things."

Remi smiles fades a little.

"Well you did a great job. She looks beautiful."

"Thank you. You two have fun, and don't stay out to late."

Remi practically pushes Blyke out of the dorm.

"Alright Mom, see you later."

"Bye."

She shuts the door and I feel a tear roll down my check. That last sentence made me feel so sad, and I dont know why. It probably was mentioning my mom.

I wipe of my concealer that I have had on for like two days now.

That was irritating.

I grab my overnight bag and head over to Johns dorm.

"What are you doing her (Y/N)?"

"I am sleeping over. Remi has a date tonight and I dont want to disturb her."

He sighs.

"Whatever. You can sleep on the couch."

"Uh no. You can sleep on the couch." I walk towards his bedroom.I couldn't sleep in Blykes old room, he still has stuff in there.

"Fuck nah. Get your own room."

I whip my head around, eyes glowing. he flinches.

"I will sleep on the bed. I don't care where you sleep, it can be on the floor for all I care. Don't poke the dragon."

He huffs and sits on the couch. I drop my bag on the bed and then come out and sit on the couch next to him, throwing my legs on his shoulder.

"Sera is coming over soon. Please leave me alone."

"Ugh. You are boring. I wanted to watch a movie but if your girlfriend is going to come over than I'm leaving."

"She not my girlfriend. I just made up with her, and I wanted to watch a movie. Wait.where do you plan on going?"

I sigh and stretch out.

"I don't know. Probably to Isen's."

His head snaps towards me.

"Dude chill."

"I will not allow you to go to another guys dorm at this hour."

"You cant stop me."

I stand up and open a portal. I stick my tongue at him.

"(Y/N) SIT YOU ASS-"

That's all I heard before I jumped through the portal. I round the corner and see Isen's dorm. I walk but then I feel someone tap my shoulder. I turn to have my face met with a punch. I fall on the ground and look up and see two people standing there. It's the Cecile girl and Zeke.

You got to be fucking kidding me.

"Well look what we got here? So nice to see you again (Y/N)."
