There are the men there....the men and the women in the lab coats are poking and prodding me and cutting me open and sewing me shut and the men and the women in suits watching me through the glass.
Then I am in a new room and strapped to a chair and looking down the barrel of a gun. I see the man in the suit smiling as he is pulling the trigger and the hammer cocks. The barrel belches smoke and fire as the bullet leaves the gun.
Blood....there is blood...blood on my hands and blood on the walls and organs falling down and men screaming and brains in glass and there is blood and I am standing in the middle of it all.
And through it all......I am smiling.
And then the music started.

Michael bolted up right and looked around. He was in his bedroom. The music was coming from his alarm. He shook his head and grabbed a quick shower. (That one again....the hell is up with that huh?) Michael shook off the dream and finished washing and dried off and took his dog out, his faithful wiener-beagle mix Louie, and gave his dog a puppy treat when he got back inside. Michael grabbed his book bag and left for school, putting on his headphones as he left for school.

Michael nodded and left the room.
He rested against the lockers and held his head as he slid down to the floor and just wished for the headaches to go away.

As he sat there and tried to relax and push back the headaches, the lockers around him started shaking. After squeezing his eyes shut though the headaches stopped. Michael sighed and walked to the bathroom. After washing his hands when he was done, he looked at himself in the mirror. He looked like a mess. There were rings under his eyes and he was looking a little paler than usual. Michael splashed water on his face and rubbed his eyes and then wiped his hands with a paper towel and headed back to class.
Once class was over, Michael waited until the other students had left and walked up to the teacher. "Sir, today's class was great."
The teacher smiled. "Thank you Michael."
"You're welcome."
Michael waved and walked out of the classroom. "Okay...soooo...my head's feeling better at least. I think I'll go to the nurses office later and get checked out."
There he is! "Michael!"
Michael turned around to see Dina.
"Hey Di."
"Do you have the notes I gave you?"
"Oh right." Michael set down his bookbag and unzipped it and pulled out the notes she had let him borrow the other day. "Thanks by the way."
"You're welcome." She said and accepted them.
"Soooo....can, um, like, walk you to your next class?" Michael asked quickly.
"That's sweet of you, but, I'm on the opposite end of the building."
"Oh...right and I have to go...yeah."
"Maybe some other time."
"Right, other time, see you."
Diana waved and ran off to her next class.
Michael sighed. "Ah well, maybe some other time." He turned and headed off to health class.
What a loser. As if she'd go out with him.
Michael immediately looked around.
The hell is he looking at?
Goth freak.
I have that damn next hour.
Hate school.
She's got a nice butt.
Such a bore.
I'm sleeping with her boyfriend!
Michael grabbed his head and ran off, out of the school building. He eventually ended up in a grassy area, a field behind the school and fell down, the voices slowly going away. Michael picked himself up. "What the hell is going on?!" He demanded and suddenly there was a sound and a piece of a tree broke off. Michael yelled and stumbled backwards. He stared at the small hole in the tree.
Admin wrote:
"What.....is that a hole? Did I do that?" Michael asked as he looked closer at it. "Holy cow I did...and my headaches are gone." Michael rested against the tree and thought this over. "Okay, let's see here: I have headaches all day, and the bad dream, and hearing people's voices and no one else hearing it, and the teacher, and the lockers shaking, and Diana, and running out here and the freaking tree....and....and.....no way...I-I-I think I'm psychic."
Admin wrote:
"Michael."
"Right, right. No fighting in school."
"That's better. He isn't worth it anyway. Walk me to my next class?"
"Sure!"

Michael walked with Diana down the hallway to her math class. "Sooo, Math?"
"Geometry and Algebra technically, but yeah. I have Paul as my teacher."
"Oh, he's nice."
"Yep what about you?"
"I'm taking Psych. It's just a couple doors down."
"Oh, alright, I'll see you at Lunch and good luck with your Psych class."
"Back at you." Michael said and waved goodbye and headed off to his own class.
After school was done, Michael walked into his house and closed the door and ran up to his room and closed the door. He took out the books and began reading about the psychic powers and telekinesis. According to the book, most psychic's used spoons as a medium or to practice on. Knowing there were a number of spoons in the kitchen, Michael ran downstairs to get a few and then ran back up to his room and closed the door and sat down. "Allllright. Let's start with something simple." Michael said as he sat on his bed and set down the spoon on his hand and waved his hand over the spoon.

"Holy crap...." He focused for a bit to do it again and kept practicing until he could do it with ease. He smiled. "Test one done. Test two: Bend the spoon.....should be easy enough..." He held the spoon up in hands like the book instructed and focused his mind on it, picturing the spoon bending and twisting in his hand. It took a few moments but the spoon slowly started to bend and twist in his hand.

"....Hooolllyyyy." Michael kept focusing on the spoon and it started floating up above his hand and then up into the air in front of him. Michael stood up slowly, keeping his eyes on it. Michael lifted his hands up and the spoon started floating up and away from him. He then pushed forward with his hands and the spoon was flung through the air and hit the closet door. The twisted and broken spoon fell to the ground. Before it could hit the ground though, Michael reached out to it and stopped the spoon just before it hit the ground. Michael then yanked his left arm back causing the spoon to fly up through the air and hit Michael on the head. "Ah! Ow. Oh man, revenge of the spoon, ow." Michael rubbed his forehead. "But still, that was awesome. I mean, I can't believe it. I'm actually a psychic! WOOHOO!" This caused a wave of psychic power around the room that flipped his bed on it's side, tossed his desk chair into the ceiling, tossed the backpack against the wall, parted the curtains, crumpled the spoon, flung open his dresser drawers, and knocked the books off of his shelves. "WOAH! Okay.....gonna have to watch that..."

After cleaning his room with his super powers, Michael rubbed his head and sat down on the bed again. "I.Am.Awesome." He said and laid down on it.
Admin wrote:The first thing Michael did the next day when he woke up was test his powers by lifting up his blanket and flinging it off the bed and across the room. His powers were still there.
"Sweetness."

He gestured to his dresser drawers. The drawers opened and clothes flew out at him. "Ahhh! Woah! Hey!" Michael fell over onto his bed. He pushed the clothes off himself. "Well.....it's open." Michael decided and started sorting through them to try and find some good clothes to wear. After selecting his outfit for the day, he tked the clothes onto the bed and then covered them up with his blanket, making a note to clean his room back up when he got home.
After showering and getting dressed, he ran down the stairs and looked around. His dad wasn't anywhere to be seen so he must have gone off to work already. Smiling, Michael opened the pantry door from across the room and then grabbed the pop tarts and yanked on them, causing the pop tarts box to fly across the room like a fastball. He caught it and opened the box and took out a package of two of them and then made himself breakfast.
Arriving at the school, Michael took a deep breath and tried to use his telepathy and was immediately bombarded by the thoughts of everyone around him. Guys, girls, janitors, teachers, the principal, the vice principal, the gym coach, the health teacher, everyone in the school.
(Ohhhh man, this was a mistake.) His head was aching as he tried to sort through them all.
Admin wrote:He tried the whole class period to get it until he was able to sort them out. Gradually, the voices died down and soon Michael felt the large mass of psychic voices die down into seperate, quieter voices. He was soon able to pick out individual voices: Students, teachers, janitors, school security, the principal, the vice principal, the secretary, all of them. Michael memorized their names as well. He stopped as the bell rang and he got up.

Michael was astounded with how much he could pick up from everybody. So many thoughts, so many things swimming around in everybody's mind. Secrets, desires, locker combination, what they were planning for lunch, who was sleeping with who, there was so much there! He could even learn their names, the names of every single student in the school, all of the teachers, the custodial staff, the campus police...it was....spectacular. Michael was snapped out of his thoughts however when Grant slammed him against the locker. "Hey freak."
"What do you want this time ginger?" Michael asked, already inside of his mind and knowing what he was going to try.
"Just to pay you back for yesterday." Grant said and punched Michael in the stomach. Or he tried to, only for Michael to stop his punch. He then grabbed him by his shirt. "You really don't want to screw with me today Grant."
A teacher walked by and Grant backed off, adjusting his shirt. "This isn't over."
"Blah, blah blah." Michael waved him off and went to his next class. He had a test anyway.

Michael breezed through it and his next few classes and gym was an utter blast. They were playing baseball and Michael found a new aspect to his skills. Focusing on the ball as Grant threw a fastball at him, Michael stepped forward, used his mind to enhance the bat, and to slow down the ball for a moment and then swing, there was a thunderous crack as hit the ball and sent it soaring away, hitting one hell of a homerun. Michael dropped the bat and walked across the bases. Like a boss. When it was his turn to pitch, he threw it right past the batter each time, TKing it around the bat when necessary.
His team swept.
He high fived other students on his way out. "Good game, guys, good game."
"Yo man, that was awesome, where'd you learn to play like that?"
"Watching the world series one too many times."
"You should join the team."
"I'll think about it."
Grant stopped him. "You. How the hell did you do that out there?"
"Mad skills."
"You cheated."
"Say that again?"
"You were cheating out there, I know it."
"Aww, you mad bro?"
Grant swung at him but Michael ducked it, having read his mind and knowing what he was going to try. Michael dodged his next punch and shoved him away, waved goodbye and ran out the door.
He met up with Alice. "Sup? Can I walk you home?"
"Sure!" She studied him. "You're certainly in a good mood today."
"Oh, it's been one hell of a good day for me." He smiled.
