(Sequel to Never Let Go) Mia may have all these amazing powers, but she's lost as ever. With the world weighing on her shoulders, will she be able to save everyone, or will she crack under pressure?
I feel bright lights shining on me. And I immediately shoot up. I'm laying in my bed, and the sun is shining on me. I remember the night before, after I passed out I guess my parents just put me back in bed.
I put on my glasses and I walk down to the kitchen. My mom and dad aren't here, so I just made myself some cereal.
As I was eating I got a text from my mom.
Mom❤️❤️ Hey sweetie. Your dad and I won't be home for a while, see you once you're home from school. 😘
Mimi🌺🌺 Kay mom ttyl! 😋
I looked at the clock and I saw the time. It was 7:40! AGHH IM GOING TO BE LATE!
The next thing I know I'm in my bathroom. "What just happened?" I asked myself. I shrug it off and I got in the shower. Once I got dressed I changed into my clothes.

I looked at the time again considering I'm probably like an hour late. But it was still 7:40.. So I went downstairs to wait for Tyler.
About 5 minutes later, he waltz through the door.
"Wow you're actually ready on time." He says sarcastically. "Yeah, okay Tyler..." I state.
We started walking to school silently, it was just really awkward and I don't know why.
Once I got to school, everything got really loud. The bell rang and I covered my ears from the pain. Then it happened again. Everything was blue and I was seeing skeletons.

I started heaving, trying to make it all stop. Tyler started talking with someone but I didn't notice, I was looking at everything around me.
"Hey Mia..." as someone says that I immediately snap out of the state I was in.
"Oh, hi Chrysanthe." I smile back. "So, uh how are you today?" She asks. "Fine I guess, why?" I question.
"Oh no reason." She smiles awkwardly, then runs away.
And that's what seemed to happen the whole day. All my friends stared at me awkwardly, like I had ten heads. I was kind of a loner today. Even Tyler wasn't really talking to me, and I am honestly getting tired of it.
At the end of school...
I see all my friends talking to each other, and as I approach them they all go silent.
"Hey guys!" I smile. "Oh, hey Nia..." Rain says awkwardly. "So guys, I was hoping we could go to the movies today. There's a really good movie coming out and I was hoping that you guys would-" "I'm sorry Mia, we can't go..." Chrysanthe interrupts.
"Oh yeah.. Chrysanthe and I have dance today." Rain says. "And my mom is taking me to the station today." Tyler adds.
"Oh, okay.." I say sadly. "We'll see you tomorrow Nia..." Rain smiles. "Okay bye.." I say sadly.
The group starts talking again as I walk away. "It's Mia..." I mumble sadly.
As I'm walking, I see Nick and Ryder pointing at me. Ryder hands Nick his drink, and then Nick starts to walk towards me.
I start to walk faster to get away from him, but he only gets closer. "I believe the slushy missed you yesterday." He laughs from behind.
I turn around to look how far away he was from me, and I end up bumping into some.
It was Ryder.
I try to get around him but he holds me in place, until Nick was right behind me.
And right at that second I felt cold red slushy fall all over my head, and down my shirt.
I look around to see people snickering at me. I even see my friends start to giggle. A crowd starts forming around me, every one still laughing.
The laughing starts getting louder and louder, I started screaming again. My hands to me ears, trying to get rid of the noise but failing.
I still feel Ryder holding onto my arm. I use my other arm to grab his, I flip him over, slamming him into the ground. I'm still crying and my head is pounding.
I push people out of the way with ease. And I start running. I close my eyes for a sec, and the next thing I know, I'm in an ally way.
My shoes had sparks coming out of them. I freak out and I immediately took them off. And I look around me, things keep going in slow motion.
I then look down at my hand to see it vibrating, and it wouldn't stop. After 30 seconds more seconds of it vibrating, it finally came to a halt.
I realized that I'm still wet, so I decided to go home and change my clothes, and I got there in what felt like 3 seconds. I tried to open the door but it was locked. And my key was in the kitchen with my phone...
"Why does this day hate me..." I grumble.
I started to walk to the mall to get a new outfit.
Once I got there I walked into Forever 21, to look at clothes. And I saw some very familiar people.
I went to get closer look and I saw Tyler, Chrysanthe, and Rain!
"I thought you guys were busy!" I yell at them. They all gave me shocking looks.
"What are you doing here?" Chrysanthe asks awkwardly.
"Are you kidding me! You were all lying to me! And here I thought you were my friends!" I say sadly.
"Well technically we're cousins.." Tyler adds. I give him a mean look, and then I ran out of the store with tears in my eyes.
At this point I didn't care my clothes were soaked. I wasn't going to let that stop me. I went to the movie theater in the mall and I bought a ticket and some snacks.
After I finished the movie (which was terrible), I thought I would try to get into my house again. It was now dark outside, and I am officially tired of this day.
I checked the door again, and now it's unlocked, so I open the door. The whole house was dark so I turned on the lights. And I let a horrifying scream as I looked inside...
