Supernatural hunters, he thought irritably. That label only belongs to you psychos and QUIT GIVING ME NICKNAMES!
Of course he only said that in his head, there would be no point in fighting back. He already tried all other methods before this, any sort of logical reason like school work and illness would be ignored, yelling, swearing and being the most disagreeable person in the trip results in being dumped in some no name town with a gas station (they swear it was an accident but no one believed them), basically anything that wasn't supernatural related will be immediately shot down.
With a resigned sigh, Daniel braced himself against the wall as Dave's stellar driving skills caused the van to jump around unpredictably. He looked out of the window once and saw something worrisome.
"Hey, why are we going to Danielle's university?"
"This is family bonding experience Danny!" Dave says cheerfully, uncaring for the traffic rules and other miscellaneous objects that he kept 'accidentally' hitting like lampposts, trashcans, mailboxes, fire hydrants, and the occasional near miss of pedestrians on the sidewalk. "We have to pick up your sister!"
"It's Daniel," he mutters rebelliously before thinking deeply. Having Danielle in this impromptu 'family bonding' would be worse than the end of the world, he may disagree with his parents' obsessive belief of weird shit but at least he has learned to tolerate it to a degree but Danielle... She'd fight them tooth and nail for the unhealthy obsession that would end up in 24/7 yelling, as if he didn't have enough of that at home.
"What does your new inventions do exactly?" he asks, pointing to the weird metal whip thing beside them and the metal boomerang. It was Daphne who answered.
"The Ross Whip functions like a claw that catches monsters!" she says, turning to face him. "It wraps around it and electrocutes, it could also transform into a buzzsaw blade and the Ross Boomerang can lock on any supernatural auras to make sure it always hits its mark. Doesn't it sound amazing?"
It sounds painful and troublesome, he thinks then contemplates. If it was anything like their other inventions then it should immediately react to any sort of super powered presence...
Daniel decided he'd rather not suffer through more of his family than he already does.
With both parents distracted they failed to notice his eyes glow into an inhuman yellow hue but they did notice when a werewolf stopped the van with its beefed up arms with enough force to leave a sizeable dent. The van was nearly lifted off the ground. There was a moment of stunned silence before it howled at them and took off towards the city centre.
"That...THAT WAS A WEREWOLF DAPHNE!" Dave exclaimed after a moment of silence, his excited look matching hers. She hurriedly picked up the Ross Finder and Dave took the weapons out of the car.
"This way Dave!" she says as she point to the east, she got out soon after and the both raced towards it.
"LET'S CATCH THAT MONSTER!"
Soon enough they were both gone, forgetting their 'family bonding time' and leaving the van parked in the middle of the road. Daniel switched seats and drove home, deciding not to be a dick and leave the thing where they left it.
Daniel had discovered a neat little bonus that his power gave him apparently, photokinesis is the ability to manipulate light and with enough control and practice he could make convincing illusions that served him well when it came to distracting the weirdos he lived with when he wanted to, ironic as they were in regards to his family. Despite that, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of idiots were they to believe that a werewolf would appear in the middle of the afternoon and run towards the city centre.
