Powerless

[swordkitty]

In Salem, Massachussets, live fifteen teens who are not so ordinary as they seem.

5 have more power in their minds than believed to be possible.

4 can create the unimaginable.

3 can hear those without voices.

2 can see into the works of time, including what is yet to come.

1 has the power to heal...or destroy.

Fifteen teenagers, living in an ordinary world with the strength to change everything. They are not as alone as they think in a world of traitos and lies. There are plenty who lust for these abilities, at the cost of anything. Even their own humanity. In a world of fear and desperation, fifteen teenagers are forced to realize that when alone, they are powerless.

You do NOT have to go along with the romantic interest thing. This was originally a story/comic I thought up and figured it'd be fun as an rpg. This is the list of romanticism from my original story.

Original characters are allowed. We need support characters, along with enemies. If your original character has powers, it's ok. However, I'd prefer to get all the above characters first, and your original character will not be as "Main Char" as the above. Friends, family, and rivals may be created as support characters. If you wish to be a villain or betray the characters for something (wealth, fame, power, etc.) please PM so I can help and approve.

Chrissy sat on the bench with some of the football jocks and her fellow cheerleaders. They were always the last ones back from lunch, but no one ever yelled at them. They always made it in just in time for the final warning bell.

She saw a boy walk past carrying a large pile of books. He looked as if he had been crying. He looked over at her and for a moment, their eyes met. Pieces of his day flashed through her mind: him being bullied, getting his lunch dumped on the floor, his father's alchoholic brakedown last night, the abuse.

"So, you in??" Chrissy realized the others were looking at her.

"What??"

"We asked if you wanted to go to that concert next weekend. Looks hot."

"Oh, um..." her eyes drifted back towards the bpoy, but he was gone. "Yeah, sure, whatever. Sounds cool."

She loved hanging out with her friends, but she wished she could tell them about her ability. However, she knew that they would never understand...


((Is that okay??? If not, I can change it.))

 

[Lessien]

Kate walked through the halls, walking quickly enough to get to her next class before the bell but not so quickly as to spill her books.

A group of boys walked past her, laughing. Probably at some crude joke one of them got from an equally crude movie, she thought. Funny, but it all seemed so familiar, like a scene from a dream.

She got to her favorite class--AP Biology--and sat down near the front. The teacher began talking about mitosis. The girl next to her carefully unwrapped a chocolate bar and ate it sneakily, the smell of chocolate and peanuts drifting Kate's way. Sitting next to her, Kate's friend Maggie passed her a note which read We learned about mitosis in ninth grade.

Yeah, Kate wrote back, then added, Do you ever get deja'vu?

Sometimes, yeah.

Well, I think I had a dream about this last night.

Just this class?

The whole day. Even this note. And if my dream was correct, we need to stop passing this note back and forth before Mr. Griffin notices.

Maggie put the note in her binder just before Mr. Griffin came their way.

Mike sat in Spanish class next to his friends. The teacher was evidently too engrossed in her lecture on verb conjugation to listen in on "The Posse's" plans.

"So, like, we could put chocolate sauce on the door--rig it so when someone opens it--"

"Dude! That's classic!"

"Or overdone." Everyone turned to look at Mike.

"Dude, what's wrong with you?"

"I get it."

"Get what?"

"What the teacher's saying."

A pause. "Dude, she's speaking Spanish."

"Yeah, I know. But she's talking about how much she hates this class."

"No she's not. She's way too happy for that."

"Dude, just listen to her! She's cussin' her head off!" Mike laughed, a laughter that his friends didn't share in.

Amy rushed off to her Chemistry class. She was running a little late because she had been studying in the library. She slid into her seat, just before the bell.
"what a teacher's pet" Amy heard some one think.
She was getting sick of people thinking that. she just wanted to be able to make a good living in her life and the only way that would happen is with a good education.

 

[Ellesar]

Chase walked leisurely down the hall toward his class. He managed to slip into the classroom just as the final bell rang. Who needs math anyway? Why couldn't I just skip this class? he thought as he took his seat at the back of the class. Diverting his attention away from the boring lesson, he noticed a glass of water sitting on the teacher's desk. Smiling slightly, he thought, This should be fun... Unfortunately, the teacher never sat down at his desk and Chase slumped back into his seat, dejected.

((nice intros))

Jade lay on her back, feeling the wind blow through her hair. She loved her little brother's descripton of it. "You look like a witch." Maybe she was a witch. She felt like one. She closed her eyes andthought about the turtle in the tank. Suddenly, she was swimming. She could feel a shell around her, the rock in the corner. A human face looked down, and something sprayed down. Food. Jade blinked and she felt the wind again. It feels nice...She heard a voice and looked down. A teacher. He was yelling. Something like "get off the roof!"

 

[Everloving]

Chrissy followed the group to class and sat down just as the bell rang. The teacher handed out the results of last weeks test. As she got to her desk, Chrissy noticed that he seemed saddened. She looked into his eyes and saw why. The memmories flashed before her.

The woman stuffed her things into her luggage, and zipped it up. She was screaming something, but her sobbing made it hard to understand. Something about another man.

She lifted the small child from the crib and grabbed the three year old girl's hand and dragged the suite case to the taxi waiting outside. With out so much as a goodbye, his family was gone.

Chrissy looked symathetically into his eyes.

"There was nothing you could do, sir. It wasn't your fault."

He stared at her.

"What did you say??"

"Your wife. There was nothing you could do. I'm so sorry, sir. But perhaps you will see your children again."

Tears formed in the teacher's eyes, but the pain soon turned to anger.

"Who told you about them?? Who told you??!?!?! No one else knows, how could you?? It only happened last night!!! Who told you these things??"

Chrissy stared at him.

"I'm sorry, sir. I was only trying to-"

"ANSWER ME!!! NOW!!!!!!"

Chrissy was beginning to feel scared. He seemed almost violent. A hand touched her shoulder and she jumped and turned to see Chad behind her. He was the quaterback for the football team and one of the toughest guys in school.

"Dude, I don't know what happened to you, but Chrisyy was just tryin' ta help, man. Chill and teach us now. That's what they pay you to do, ain't it, Teach???"

The teacher nodded and went back his desk, though they had no lesson, but rather sat in the room for the entire period in dead silence as the teacher sat in his chair and cried. Chrissy just wished there was something more she could do. Someway to help him, to help others. But how could one girl make a difference.

 

[Renight]

Kevin luaghed with his cool friends, at a pretty funny joke. So he went into his next class, and 2 of the cool clique was with him. He went into the back of the room, the cool kids always sit in the back. They talked and joked until the teacher shut them up. Kevin loved his life. He was cool, had cool stuff at home, and he was so popular he could tell someone to back off, and they did! But it was strange that every time he said something it was done.
He sat in the class, he was very anoyed, he was 17, and soo wished he was 18. He wanted to be out of school, out of his house. On his own for once in his life. With his own car, house. Do whater he wants.
While he daydreamed, a teacher came by and handed out some homework. He didn't care, he would just get some nerd to do it...

 

[Everloving]

((Are any of them going to be in the same school???))

 

[rockerchic]

Sarah was sitting in Chemistry class, bored out of her mind. The teacher was just going on and on and Sarah couldn't take it much longer. The teacher was about to make a demonstration; she turned on the buncin burner and Sarah smiled. "Time for fun"

imediately the flame went out and the entire class broke out in laughter. the teacher turned the flam on again but Sarah just put it out agian. This went back and forth at least six more time before the teacher gave up and decided to back to her lecture.

Sarah laughed to herself and then turned to Rachel
"This is the most boring teacher in the entire school, my personal least favorite."

((hope its O.k that i made Sarah and Rachel friends. if not let me know. i can change it.))

 

[Lessien]

((Umm....Mike and Kate go to the same school, but I don't know about any of the others...))

 

[swordkitty]

((I can be in any school if someon decides to see me or something))

Jade sat patiently as the teachr yelled at her. "You've been skipping second period every day!! It's a wonder you'll ever be able to graduate! Howdid you even get up on the roof?"

"Stairs," Jade said. Wasn't it obvious? The teacher seemd even madder as he tried to think of more things to accuse her of. Jade stared at him, concentrating carefully. Hot. It's hot. Of course. He was a gym teacher. Let her leave. Let her go. The teacher blinked, confused at the sudden thoughts. "Uh...get back to class. What teacher you got?"

"Carson." Jade watched as the burly adult scribbled out a pass. She took it ad calmly walked away, leaving him in his muddled thoughts. Two points for the witch,

 

[Ellesar]

((Chase can be at any school also. doesn't matter much to me))

 

[Guitargirl921]

Alex was having a bad day. his girlfriend just left him for the schools quarterback, he just found out he was failing Spanish, and he spilled all his fruit juice down his shirt.

It was raining.

Alex sighed and opened his locker. He was reaching for his math book when Peter, the quarterback approached him. When Alex turned around Peter said

"look, I just wanted to let you know that i have no hard feelings about the situation with Melissa."

Alex was shocked
"YOU have no hard feelings!! She left me for you."

"I ment about her dating both of us at the same time."

"What!!!"

"Oh. I guess she never told you. umm this is akward. Well at least we both know she ended up with the better guy."

Alex was speechless
"Just get out of my face!!!!!!"
As Alex screamed at the jerk, lightning and thunder boomed and all the lights in the school went out.

"Man, freaky timing. This storm wasn't even prodicted." Said peter.

Alex remained silent to himself. This wasnt the first time he noticed the weather acting stange when he got emotional. Alex was extreamily curious.

 

[Lessien]

"What's so funny, Michael?"

Mike stopped laughing and looked up at the teacher. Normally, this would be the time when he'd say 'Nothing' and pretend to be doing some homework, but in light of what he'd just heard, he couldn't resist asking a question.

"Just wondering what *bleep* means," he said, smirking.

Ms. Gonzalez's eyes widened and she looked like she'd swallowed a goldfish, but the look quickly passed. "It means....it's an old...Aztec expression meaning...."

"*Bleep*?" Mike finished.

Her cheeks turned bright red and, without a word, she went back to her dexk, returning a moment later with a slip of paper. "Go use that language with Mr. Preston," she said quietly. "Now. Take your things."

Mike did as he was told and went down to the principal's office, grinning like a loon. He knew exactly what Mr. Preston would do when he heard where Mike learned what the Spanish equivalent of a choice word was.
---------------------
"Kate, would you take this down to the office, please?"

Kate accepted the package from Mr. Griffin and headed down to the office. Okay....no big deal....it's just deja-vu, right? But there's no way one of the Posse could actually understand Spanish! Once you get down to the office, you'll find that nothing is out of the ordinary, she told herself.

Pushing the door open, voices drifted out:

"Michael, you can't be serious."

"Dude--I mean Sir--I am! She was cussin' her head off! Only in Spanish. Do you wanna hear what she said?"

Mr. Preston sighed a yes. A stream of foul Spanish words followed, and after that their English translations.

Kate knocked on the door. "Mr. Preston?"

"Come in." She did, and left the package on his desk, leaving the office without a word. She lingered outside for a few more minutes, listening to Mike argue with the principal. Kate leaned against a wall, trying to absorb it all.

Did I see the future?

The lights went out, something else that had been in Kate's dream. She sighed and sank to the floor.

 

[Ellesar]

When the lights suddenly went out, Chase jumped from his seat. "Chase! Sit down." the teacher commanded him. Chase only shook his head defiantly, and started to gather his things. I'm getting out of here... he thought. The teacher came up and tightly gripped Chase's shoulder. "Good. I see you're getting your things together. I'll let you explain to Mr. Preston about your insolent behavior." Chase took the proffered note and stuffed it into his pocket before quickly bolting from the class. He made his way down the hall and to the office and let himself in. Not seeing the girl on the floor, he tripped over her and landed on his stomach on the floor. "Oof! Uhh...sorry about that... I didn't see you there..." he told Kate.

 

[Lessien]

"Th-that's okay," Kate said, standing. "I should've stood sooner."
----------------
"You may go," Mr. Preston said, mainly to get Mike out of his office. Just then, the lights went out.

Mike walked out of the office and stood there for a minute, thinking of all the fun things he could do, now that the power was out, and saw two other students outside the office. One of them was a pretty enough blonde girl who had an IQ of about a billion.

"Whatcha doin'?" Mike said, friendly as could be. Kate rolled her eyes.

 

[Ellesar]

Chase stood up as well and just looked at Mike. He raised an eyebrow at Mike's friendliness and hefted his backpack over one shoulder. "What are YOU doing?" Chase retorted, throwing the question back at Mike.

 

[Lessien]

"I got in trouble 'cuz Ms. Gonzalez was cussin' her head off," Mike said, rolling his eyes. "The one time I get Spanish, I get yelled at and no one else believes me!"

"Perhaps that's because you've spent your entire school career making sure no authority figures will believe you?" Kate said sarcastically.

"Hey, Einstein, whose side are you on, anyways?"

"For now, not yours."

 

[Ellesar]

"I take it you two know each other?" Chase asked. He had pulled a water bottle from his backpack and was now fiddling around with it.
