The Academy I’ve never been normal. My parents always said I was special, because I have a very difficult personality to love and am too sarcastic for my own good. I was never the most popular person in the world or, for that matter, well liked. I had my group of friends, but I still felt like an outcast. I’m not normal and I am much more special than I ever thought I was. I have magic running through my veins. My powers showed up when I turned 14.

“It’s okay dad. I know the risks. But I have to go, this is the only place that I can be myself and walk around with a ball of water over my head if I feel like it. And I know that you just want to protect me, but I have to go and hopefully everything will be fine. I will go there, and we will unpack all of my stuff and me and my roommate will be best friends and everything will be perfect.”
“I know Lex, I just don’t want anything bad to happen to you. You’ve never been around creatures before and we don’t know how they will react. I want you to go. We just want you to be extremely careful. Right, Mary?” He asked my mother.

My face lit up with a smile. “I love you guys so
