The boy and I headed towards my house, not speaking the whole way.

Finally, the awkward tension was broken when we reached my house.

"Honey, your home!" My mother and father cheer in unison.

"Yeah, we need to talk."

"What's wrong honey?" "And who is that behind you, a friend?" My mother asks.

"Uh, yeah, sure, you two, come with me."

I took my parents by the hand and dragged them into the kitchen, while the boy remained at the front door.

"Mom, dad! I don't know where he came from, I just fell and some weird shit started happening and I don't know what to do!" I frantically whispered to them.

"Baby, calm down." My mother comforts.

"And watch your language!" My father adds.

"Sorry dad, but I'm so confused about this."

"It's okay, just explain to your mother and I what happened."

"I was walking home from school, and it was raining, so I slipped and fell in a puddle, then something weird started to happen.." I tell.

"What happened?"

"M-my hands.."

"What about them? Where you hurt?" My mother asks, grabbing my hands and checking them.

"No mom, I'm fine." I said, pulling my hands out of her grip. "My hands started to glow.."

"Glow?"

"Yes, glow, a dark blue color to be specific, then a light looking type thing shot out of my hand and into the puddle."

"O-oh, then what happened?" Mom said, sounding worried.

What's she worried about? Does she know something I don't?

"Umm, well, there was a dark cloud that begin forming around the puddle."

"Okay.."

"And when the darkness lifted, all the sudden the puddle had been replaced by that boy." I said, pointing at him.

Mom then begins to panic, she was taking deep breaths and clenching her chest and I didn't know why, but I found it very suspicious how it happened so suddenly.

"Calm down honey, take a deep breath in, then breath out." My father says, trying to calm her down.

I would help, but I couldn't get my head wrapped around why it was happening, this usually only happened when she's nervous or scared, so why is it happening now?

Somethings going on here..

"Mom, dad, what's going on?"

"Blaise, I think it's time we tell him." My mother says to my father.

"Yes, it's time." He nods.

"Time? Time for what?" I asked, confused.

"We've been dreading this day." Mom began, "but, your father and I have been keeping something from you."

"And that is?"

They both pull back their hair, revealing two..tattoos I'm guessing, behind their ears.

My mothers looked like this:

And my fathers looked like this:

"They're not tattoos, son, they're our symbols."

Symbols? Huh? I'm so confused.

"Huh??"

"Mine means 'Spell Singer' and your fathers means 'Alchemist'." My mother explains, "and yours means 'High Wizard'."

"W-what're you?"

She grabs her purse from the counter and takes out a mirror, then she moves my hair and shows me a symbol behind my ear, looking like:

"Woah, that's so cool! But I'm still confused on what all this means." I say.

They both look at each other and take in a deep breath before looking back at me.

"Honey, you're a wizard.."
