Chapter 1 Orgin

-The past-

«Arnold Woods, its your turn» the lady in the hospital said with a carefull voice. «What now?» Arnold growled, he walked closer to her. «You are diagnosed as a psychopath, we have a mental hospital that we reccomend you..» the nurse said, clearly scared that he would snap at her. «Forget it! I am a great father! Im no psychopath!» Arnold yelled, the look on his face was tight. Like he was trying not to explode. Cayden, his oldest son stared at him. «Theres nothing to be ashamed of, eh?», Cayden clearly regretted his words. «Shut up!» Arnold yelled, a few people in the building turned around to see what was happening. «Look guys! Gay misfoster! You can have him for free!» Arnold yelled, but now in a toxic way.

Cayden looked down, he looked up at his dad again and left the room. «Cae!» His brother yelled from behind, Cayden slowly looked back. «Xander...» he replied, Cayden wasnt surprised to see that his brother had followed him. «I hope someone kills him!» Xander said unexpected, he smiled and looked down again. «Its gonna be okay… right?» Xander asked, he looked away for a second. «Yes» Cayden said shortly, «i hope so» he continued. «Are we gonna go home now?» Xander asked, he looked up at his brother. «Yes, I just gotta go grab something from a friend» Cayden sighs, he tried to avoid eye contact. «More adult soda?» Xander asked, he looked up at his brother. «Yea..» Cayden started «Promise me you´ll never even try as much as a sip» Cayden whispered, he looked down. «You get so scary when you drink it!» Xander said, he looked up with tears in his eyes. «Just stay away, pal» Cayden smiled, he ruffeled Xander hair.

They walked for a while, when they finally got to a white house. The paint was starting to fall of in flakes. Cayden rung the doorbell, a tall man opened. He was approximately twice Caydens age, around 32 years old. He handed a plastic bag over to Cayden. «Thanks man.» Cayden said as he handed the man 80$ in cash. The man slammed the door in his face after he grabbed the money.

Cayden and Xander headed home, none of them said a word. When they finally arrived, Cayden hid the plastic bag with beer in his school bag before his father would notice.

 

«Why did you take so long?» Arnold asked coldly, he looked at him with a stiff face expression. «I had to piss, so i ran to the gas station» Cayden said, he looked dead on the inside. «Yes! I was there with him» Xander said, to back him up. «Okay.» Arnold said carelessly, he sat down at the couch.

 

 

 

Chapter 2 Education

-the present-

«Charly? Do you believe in ghosts?» Mei asked, she looked up at Charly. «Not really.. but a bunch of people say i look like one..»  Charly said, looking back at Mei. «I think you look pretty..» Mei said, she looked down. Charly looked at Mei, and looked back down once they got eye contact. They saw Cayden walk towards them, Mei waved at him with a smile. «Hi!» she said as she ran towards him, he wasn`t smiling back.

«Well, someone looks a little wasted..» Charly said when the three of them where standing by the garbage bins in the school back yard. «How much did you even drink?» Mei questioned, «How many fingers am i holding up?» Mei asked as she held three fingers up. «Three?» Cayden asked carefully, he looked up at the sky. Just as soon as he looked back down, the school bell rung loudly. «I wonder if the School Of Good is as sad as S.O.B» Charly jokeingly said, Mei looked at her. «S.O.B gets me S.O.B.B.I.N.G!» she laughed. «Uh anyways… Mei?» Cayden asked, waiting for a reply. «What?» Mei replied, she looked up at him. «Um, can you watch Xelia?». Cayden asked, he looked down at her. «Yea..Drinking again?»  Mei asked politely. «I guess so.» Cayden said. «Like you asked me to, ive been spying on your dads text activity. Nothing incriminating has been said yet» Mei replied randomly. Cayden could see she was not okay with it.

They walked into the classroom and sat down. «Welcome class 10c, today we will be practicing our abilities» the teacher started. «We take practicing really serious here at School Of Bad, practice is important if we want to beat the heroes» she finished.

Mei raises her hand. «Yes Mrs. Evers?» the teacher said, she looked at Mei. «Will we be practicing individually?» Mei asked her teacher. «No, we will be practicing in small groups today! The groups you get now, is the same for the rest of the semester» the teacher explained, she looked at a sheet of paper in her hands. «Mei, Charly, Cayden and Loid.  

Elyssé, Carmin, Olive and Galaxia. Lana, Alise, Emelynne and Delaine. And Galaxia and Eleanoor. Those Are the groups you get» The teacher said, she sat down at the chair. «Okay class! Get working!» she said as she started to organise some papers.

Mei noticed Emelynne, Delaine, Elyssé and Olive stare at her. Laughing. She remembered how she used to be friends with Elyssé when everyone ignored her. That didn’t matter anymore.

 «Teamwork is key.. right?» Loid said. Charly, Mei and Cayden did´nt really know Loid, but they thought he seemed interesting. «Okay! Im Mei, this is Charlotte and thats Cayden!» Mei said, as she pointed at the others. «Cool! Im Loid! I can control bones from the inside» Loid said. «I am a cat, and I have got super strength” Mei answered. «I have a demon form!, I also can possess people” Charly said. «I can do telekinesis!» Cayden smiled. «Ha! We will make a great team!» Loid said. They trained how to cooperate with eachother and shortly after that, Loid became a part of their friend group. Loid Smith, the smart boy with two younger siblings. Zayne and Zelda, his eight year old siblings. Zelda where one of Xanders friends, they shared their passion for makeup and hair, but Zayne was more of a quiet boy. He used to have an older brother, but he was a soldier during the war. He was shot. In the head.

 

Chapter 3 That icon Xelia

«Hey.. Xan- Xander..?» a guy with short black hair asked, Xelia looked at him. «Xelia, call me Xelia..» she said. «Ain’t you a guy?» he asked, «I’m sorry…» he continued.

«It’s okay…» Xelia said, she was pretty relieved that he wouldn’t bully her for being trans. He was the first ever male at her age that would accept her and ask questions like that. That weren’t rude, but curious. «I’m Zayne!» the boy told her. Zayne had a weird feeling, like butterflies in is stomach. He thought that Xelia was pretty dang awesome. Zayne Smith was an autistic little lad, he didn’t usually feel passion for someone.. but Xelia was…. Different. Zayne liked the different «wall» that parted their worlds. He admired Xelia.

 

Xelia… or Xander was used to getting hate for «acting» like a girl. One time the class bully Jack, pulled down Xelias pants in front of the whole class to verify that Xelia actually was a guy. Xelia was used to being pointed at, but she had a couple friends to.

Zelda and Rosie where two of her uh friends, they stood up for her.  

 

Xelia knew if she wasn’t ´Xander´ in front of her dad, he would beat her. Just like he did to her older brother, Cayden. Cayden and Xelia were really close, they where like «the fox and the hound». Cayden had brains, Xelia had beauty.

Cayden was a really silent type of guy at home, but when his dad wasn’t around. He was a whole new person. A person who inspired Xelia, the only safe person out there.

Life was icy and cold after their mother died. And it was all because of him, but Xelia plotted her revenge. She just had to master her powers first. (Easier said then done)

Cayden said to never hurt anyone, but Xelia would have killed someone. Especially if she had the powers to kill him.  The man that had ruined their lives, so as their moms.

____________________________________________________________________

It was a rainy day, Cayden was fidgeting with his hands. He was nervous, he did get nervous when he was hungover. He knew that Mei hated that he was drinking, “It’s ruining you!” She could yell at him for hours about that. It wasn’t weird, he usually thought. The way drugs and alcohol ruined her life broke him, and the fact that her dad expected her to forgive him. It was sickening, so was the fact that his mom was six feet under. He wanted to cry, but somehow he was just mad. He was furious, how could she just leave the two of them like that. Just die and leave her whole life behind. It was selfish of her, to hang herself.

The drinking relieved him, he wouldn’t have to feel a thing. Just drink, and be numb.

It’s dumb, he knew that. But so is sharing his thoughts, or feel his dads hard slaps that hit his face like a rock to the ground. He couldn’t lose his mind now, he was basically in charge of Xelias well being now. That was scary, and he knew she was scared to.

__________________________________________________________________

 

Xelia knew stuff she shouldn’t know, she looked at Zayne as she was trying to figure out wether it’s smart to tell Cayden about the stuff she knew or not. She ended up with “nah, its not smart”. She can’t speak about such, what if he didn’t believe her?

«You are so iconic!!!» Zayne hyped her up, she looked at him for a minute. «Your right!» she said, «I am iconic!» she continued. She liked Zayne, like very much.

Zayne had a pure heart, and no mean intentions. “Xelia..” she could hear Caydens voice from afar, “that’s my brother! I gotta go!” She said happily. Zayne smiled back at her, she could see her brother walking. He was definitely not sober, he was atleast sober enough to stand up. That was positive. But Xelia had a secret that could ruin the vibe, in fact it could ruin a life or two. No one else knew. Xelia knew she was gonna die, but she also knew she would never completely vanish. She would always come back, but she could never tell why. Xelia knew if anyone found out she was a demon and that she could talk to her dead mom, everyone she loved would dissapear. She already lost so many, she needed her brother.

Cayden looked at his sister with a deadpan expression, he sensed something on her. Fear. Cold stale fear. «I dont wanna go home..» Xelia said, her voice trembling. «Me neither…» Cayden mumbled. «..You can stay in the basement with me.» He continued. Xelia stayed quiet for a while, she looked up. «Can we buy candy, and read like we did before.» she asked as she stared at him, «yea, ive got 250 bucks i stole from our lovely father.» he put on his British accent.

They walked to Gemma’s supermarket, since the mall wasn’t so far they walked for about 3 minutes. They grabbed a couple bags of marshmallows and a family pack of lollipops, it costed 150 bucks. They started to run home after the store visit, so their father didn’t get mad at them. They where at home. Stuck. Arnold glanced at them, this was one of those days. Stuck. Arnold raised his hand towards Xelia, Cayden moved with the quickness of the lightning. Stuck. The pain pierced through Caydens face, his dads hard knuckle really hurt. «Where have you been.» Arnold said, putting up his «i hate you» expression. Stuck. At the fucking store, dipshit Cayden thought, but he kept quiet. Xelia was crying. Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck. «Shut up!» his dad yelled, Did I say that out loud Cayden thought. «Go to your fucking room.» Arnold yelled. Cayden obeyed, he scooped up Xelia. «He stays» His dad said gesturing at Xelia. «No shes not staying.» Cayden said, «Pardon.» His dad looked at him. «You hold nothing.» Xelia said angrily, «You want a slap, son?» Arnold asked Xelia coldly. «If you so much as lay a hand on your daughter, im gonna snap your neck.» Cayden had snapped, he was done. His dad was gonna pay. «I wish you died instead of mom!» Xelia cried out. Silence, everything was silent.
