I dashed across the corridor as usual , looking for an empty classroom...no one can know my secret...

Woah ..woah..woah...hol up....look at me getting into the story without even introducing myself...hi ... I'm Keiara...a topper of my class(jk...jk) I'm more of an average backbencher ...but I have my reasons for that ...but I'm obviously not gonna tell you now...we just met..duhh...

Anyways ...where was I...oh yeah ...running to find an empty classroom... let's get back to it...

As I ran ...I felt the adrenaline rush...how I missed it ...I jumped down a flight of stairs...before looking back at...WHAT!...Did I just see...him....as much as I wanted to say hi...I couldn't...I had a job to do...I lept from another flight of stairs landing on one knee and one hand ....before I regained my speed....oh and did I mention that I can run like,really fast...and I mean FAST ...I mean not as fast as The Flash or anything ...maybe second to him ..yeah...how I loved the feeling of dashing across the ocean ... seeing the lightning forming from my speed...pink...it was pink ...take note of that..okay..

And just to give you some context about the lightning.. here's what's up...a lot of the so-called "superheroes" have the power of speed ...your speed is controlled by your emotions..which is why there's different colours of lightning...

Yellow -happy(lowest speed)

Green-irritable

Blue-sad(middle rank)

Purple-scared

Red-angry(highest....or so we thought)

You're probably wondering why mine is pink,we'll did I also mention that I'm the last of the GLITCH....yeah...I know that it sounds like I'm the "chosen" one and whatever...but .. it's not all that great...knowing that the world depends on you...one wrong move..and....

Max:who are you talking to?

Keiara:wha-none of your business

Max:I knew you were weird...

Keiara:ugh... You're so annoying

Max:what did you expect, I'm your arch nemesis

Keiara:can we not do this today, I have to be somewhere.

Max:no way, I've been looking forward to this all day

Keiara;what the h-

Max: anyway...Keiara can I ask you something...

Keiara:huh?...I mean go ahead... it's not like you're my arch nemesis or anything...

Max:do you ever wonder what it would be like if...

Keiara:If,what?

Max:if we weren't.... enemies?

Keiara:wha-....what do you mean?

Max:do you think that maybe ...we could be..(steps closer)...

Keiara:(blushes)no ..no...we ...we can't(steps back)

Max:(looks down)but why(steps closer)

Keiara: because,Max... we're....

                         (says at the same time)

 "Enemies"

Max: yeah,right...see ya ....whenever...

Keiara:Max,wait ...

He didn't wait,instead he left on his bike....

I wish I could tell him how I really feel...but...then again there was already ... someone else...

Carter:hey ,Kiki...

Keiara: don't call me that... and besides that...(kicks him against wall)...did you follow me?

Carter:it might look like that but ,I did it for a good cause... it's Crypto... he's..back

Keiara:what did you say...

It was a normal day for me, seeing all those so-called superheroes, flying around...and others running at supersonic speeds, most of them shooting lasers out of their eyes....

All of them have their own story to tell, including me...but who would want to listen to mine, yep,that's right the main character of this story is nothing but a low life,broke NPC of a character....how worse can it get, right?

You'd be surprised ...

Anyway, I was walking out of a café, where I just got fired...hey I know what you're thinking..."gee, Keiara, first you're a broke-nobody, and now you can't even keep a job"...well it's not my fault that the customer was so rude and obnoxious...wellll... I guess it is kind of my fault for throwing that coffee at him... I should probably apologize(turns around)

(bumps into someone)

Stranger:watch where ya going, You b....(looks up)

Keiara:I am so sorry ...I didn't see you and...

(taxi driver yells for last person)

Stranger:wait, you're....

Keiara:(running towards taxi )Again,I am so sorry...

Stranger:(confused)strange girl...(laughs)

I ran without looking back, hopefully he didn't see my face long enough to sue me …

I got on the taxi before looking back,the guy was gone ...

*MEANWHILE*

Stranger:Boss, it's HER

Hopefully I can make it in time for the last sighting, recently THEY caught a Nanyte, you're probably wondering who I'm talking about, well,if you really want to know that's the Apex Alliance, the most popular superhero squad, I would give anything to be in their group...

The Leader-Aurora:has the ability to manipulate light

The Tech Expert-Quantum:a walking genius and calculator

The Strength-Apex:Superhuman strength

Stealth-Spectra:can manipulate darkness

Distraction-Nova:master of all thing's illusion

And last, but definitely not least...the Heartthrob....uhh... I mean ...the weather control...(chuckles)...(sighs)... TEMPEST....-he has the ability to control the weather...and he looks so good while doing it...my gosh...

Tempest:listen up, everyone, even though we caught 1 Nanyte...there are still many more out there...we need your help...we need you all to stay safe...

Interviewer 1:so Tempest, can you tell us how you caught something that's been terrorizing us for centuries?

Tempest:well, uhh,I can't exactly disclose how we did it...but …uhh... I know I couldn't have done it without my team(pulls Nova close)

I don't know what came over me, except for the fact that I felt sick to my stomach...seeing them so close, I walked away from the crowd slowly, trying not to seem so...jealous...

Although, no one had ever seen the real faces behind their masks, I'd seen one of them... Ethan or you might know him as Tempest now...we were best friends…once upon a time...but then he got his powers... I guess people...change...

Tempest:Wait, Keiara is that you...

At that moment, I wish I could have disappeared...the whole crowd turned to look at me...but ...how did he recognize me... I mean we hadn't seen each other in over a year...(turns around)

Keiara:uhh...hey Tempest …(waves)

Tempest:(walks over to her)is that really you, (caresses face)

Keiara:yeah, it's really me...

Tempest:I thought you were...

Keiara:thought I was what?

Tempest:Nevermind...(say's sternly)we need to talk (takes her arm, dragging her threw the crowd while paparazzi take dozens of pictures)

Keiara:T-talk….a.. About what...you mean just the two of us...

Tempest:no...(voice deepens)with... Nova...(gaze darkens)

He pulled out of the crowd and took me to The Palace...a place only the most elite supers are allowed to go to...we all sat round a table...this is where the meeting started

Nova:so explain to me why an "ordinary" is sitting here...at "Our" table

Keiara:(stands up) I'm right here ya know....

Nova:I can see that, I'm not blind...

Keiara:you wanna be...

(Nova stands up)

Nova:you really wanna fight me?

Keiara:no need... you'll lose ... severely

Nova:oh, how nice, you actually know, proper English...

Keiara:ugh, you are so ...(eyes changing colors)

Nova:aww, you getting angry now(bends down to reach her level)

Keiara: you're all so...so...

Nova:so what?

Keiara: especially you Nova, you're such a b-

Tempest:enough! Let's get this meeting over with...

Why did he say it like that...does he not want to see me?..I couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed...

Tempest:Keiara, you're joining the Apex Alliance...

(Nova and Keiara at same time):What?!!

Nova:she can't just join...she.... she's an ordinary!

Keiara:would you just, shut up!(utensils go flying towards Nova in a pink glowing lightning, almost hitting her before it was stopped by Tempest...

Did I do that.... Did I just almost kill someone, and now everyone knew...my secret, I had to get out of there, I ran out of the room while everyone chased me, I started regaining my powers, I didn't know I would get them back so soon, I used my levitation, and before I knew it I was walking on air again, each step I took was that glowing pink again I ran to the top of the building trying to create a portal to escape, unfortunately, I hadn't made one in a long time...and before I knew it, Tempest was on the roof with me...

Tempest:Keiara,just come back inside,and we'll talk...

I knew he was lying, but ...why did it hurt this much... I mean I had been lying to everyone my entire life... I was the last Glitch... I turned to Tempest with tears in my eyes, his hand was reaching out to hold mine... I was about to take his hand when all of a sudden, a strong grasp pulled me into a portal...

Max:look I know this might sound strange, but I'm from the future and so are you and in the future we're.....

Keiara: we're what?

Max: that's not important, right now I need you to understand one thing... Nova she….she made all of this up...

Keiara:what do you mean ?

Max:I mean ...none of that actually happened, right now you're about to be fired..

Keiara:what!so....that wasn't really Tempest was it...

Max:(frowns)can we not talk about …him

Keiara:why not? I don't even know you...

Max:yes you do, I mean you will...(looks disappointed)

He drove me through a portal in this futuristic looking car,it was... peaceful and kind of nice,even though I didn't know him,it felt like we we're close...

Keiara: So, how did you find me?

Max: IT wasn't that hard, since you have a tracker on you...

Keiara:what!

Max:I mean I had to put one on you if we're....

Keiara:if we're what?

Max: we're, friends.........friends(smiles weakly)

I was surprised, and also kind of happy, I never really had many friends...but something was off about him, he seemed.... disappointed about something, I wanted to ask him ....but I didn't really know him that we'll...

Max:I need you to stay away from ... Eth-...... I mean Tempest ...

I tried to ignore the fact that he almost said his real name....but obviously he knew it, I mean ...he was from the future...

Keiara:why?

Max:just..... don't go near him...

Keiara:(sits up)wait, is he like a villain or something?....no it can't be...but he's my...

Max:uhhh....yeah... he's.... he's a villian...a villian

Keiara(in shock) w-what....no... he can't be...

Max:uhh....yep...yeah...so...you should, probably...just stick with me

Keiara:when is this going to be over?!

Max:(looks hurt).... we're...almost there...

Keiara(notices)oh... I didn't mean...to... I just....(stands next to him) I'm sorry...

          * AWKWARD MOMENT*

Keiara:Soooo..... what's your story...uhh....

Max:Max.... my name's Max...

Keiara:Max...

Max:you sure you wanna hear this...

Keiara:obvi....

Max:well…it all started when...(flashback)... "It was a normal day for me... I'd just gotten home from a long day of work…and I-"

Keiara:hol up, let me just stop you for a second there.... Ummm …you have a job?

Max:yeah...why?

Keiara:no reason, you just look a little young, that's all....

Max:so is that your way of complementing me?

Keiara:wha-.....n-no... I just....just carry on with the story!!!

Max:yeah.…so..as I was saying...before I was interrupted by (looks at Keiara)...a certain someone...." I'd just gotten home, and I was about to sit down when I got a call from my boss, he-"

Keiara: wait.....wait....wait…wait....you didn't tell me what your job was...

Max:really!?!, I didn't even finish the first sentence, ugh, you see this?.....this is why we're ene-......

Keiara:what?

Max: nothing.... Sooo.... Long story short, I found a portal that connects to the past and the only way to get back is to...

Keiara:to what?

Max:to....kill my arch nemesis...

Keiara: really, that's not so bad, I mean, if it's your arch nemesis then killing him should be easy...

Max:(says sternly) it's a girl....

Keiara:oh...so...you have a problem with fighting girls then....

Max:no... it's just that....

Keiara:Ohhhh..... I get it.... you're in love with her aren't you....

Max:wha-...no... that's none of your business! Just shut up will you....

Keiara:ugh... you're definitely in love...what a bummer....

Max:(shocked) wha-what do you mean?

Keiara:no-nothing…

Max:(steps closer)...you don't like me, do you?

Keiara:how could I ....I mean I barely know you...

Max:(looks disappointed)yeah, right… I'm…

I'm gonna go see how much further we have left..

Keiara:uhh...yeah...

Max:get down!

Keiara: what's going on!

Max:(pushes Keiara down ) we're under attack!
