Something Unique (Book 1 in the Oracle Academy Series)

Chapter 5

“Sure. You don’t need to dig. I’ll confess everything you need to know.”

“So? Start!” Her curiosity gleaming in her eyes.

“Lets Start from the start. I am Evangeline Evans, first daughter and third born of our family of five- I, my two older brothers, they are fraternal twins, my mother and my father. My mother and my father both were seers(I doubt that.)-“

“Wait. Your mother and father both were seers? And ‘were’ seers. I don’t get it.”

“Yes, both of them were seers(more of half, I should say. Atleast my dad for sure. If I get the concept right. Which I think I do.). And as to the were part. My brothers say that sometime after my birth their powers vanished. Not gradually but all together. I don’t know what that means though. I think it is because of me. But my brothers don’t let me take the blame. Or give me any other information about their missing powers for that matter.(I frowned)”

“You say your brothers are older than you so then how do they know about seers and powers?” suspicion clearly on her face.

Oops. I slipped. This time in information atleast.

Should I? I asked.

Go forward. I think your friend deserves to know. I can read her mind you know. And there is nothing but curiosity there.

The voice was back inside my head, and I was grateful for it.

I don’t know how to phrase it. Will you help me?

Just repeat what I say-

 I guess you don’t know about us, Evans. Its just that we all are gifted as in every child. But the most powerful ones are the : first daughter and third born, like seers. But unlike other seers, we are half seers. That means we have only the half of an adult seer’s powers when we are evolved. So my brothers are gifted too. And they know about powers and seers, since they are that. Even if only half.

Wow! Isn’t that hard!

But I repeated the words anyway. I could see the pure form of shock on her face ,which then turned into surprise and then curiosity again.

“So you all are gifted then.” It was more of a statement than a question.

“Yes.” I answered anyway.

“So what can your brothers do if they are gifted.”

She grasps fast.

This time it was another voice. And it seemed interested.

Sure! You guys have no idea. Should I tell her?

Its up to you, but since you have already told her so much-

It is about you! And I can’t go on telling everybody that my brothers can read minds!

Then don’t tell her!-the voice sounded angry. It was Andrew. And then it changed.- look, we are doing this for you. We are doing this so that you can have somebody to talk to you about your progress when we will not be able to. We can’t always be there, Angie and you need somebody to talk to. Other than us.

But I don’t need anybody else. I thought sulkily.

See? That’s what I am saying. Now do as we said. Go on. It doesn’t matter how you say it. After all it ‘is’ about us.

I could feel the smile in his voice.

Well, there goes nothing.

“My brothers as I said are half seers and half something else.”

“And that is?”

“There are mind readers.”I said in almost a whisper.

The look in her face was to die for.

Can I see her? With your permission, of course. ( It was Brandon.)

Sure?- It came out a question- but why do you need my permission?

Because my little angel. I will see her through your eyes. I will see her as you see or come to that point think of her.

Well if that’s the case, then you will be disappointed (I teased). I don’t know how accurate it will be…
