A/N: I am so sorry. This shouldn't of taken that long. I don't know what was with me, I just couldn't write it. It's not like I couldn't, I just got distracted and stuff. Blame Tinychat. This chapter is the longest one I've written though! Yay! :D Enjoy...And Feedback is greatly appreciated like always :) xx

Previously: “I still remember the night they came for us. I was thirteen, and it was summer vacation. I can still hear their screams in my mind sometimes…” He trailed off, burying his head in his hands. The whole room was silent. Harry placed a comforting hand on Zayn’s back. After a moment of silence, Zayn removed his head from his hands. He turned his head towards me and my eyes met cold, dark brown ones. 

“Jensen killed my family, and I’m going to get revenge.” 

"Oh my god." I heard Alea whisper beside me. How could Jensen do that? He acted so sweet! 

"I was downstairs when it happened. I heard their screams, and I came running upstairs carrying my dad's gun. When I got upstairs, there were already two guys carrying my mum's and my dad's dead body away. I spotted Jensen, who had my youngest sister Saffaa, cornered. I started running towards them, but I was to late. He shot her right in the heart." Zayn told us, then broke down into tears. I tried to get off the couch, but Niall put his hand on my arm, warning me to stop. I got up anyway and walked over to Zayn, throwing my arms around him. I could feel warm tears running down my face. 

"The group Jensen's part of, they want to be superior to all humans. They think that we should be leaders, and all Normals should be slaves. The people that stand in the way of that, get killed." Liam continued. Zayn wiped his eyes, and accepted the tissue box Harry offered him. After he was done blowing his nose, I gave him a real hug, and he hugged me back. 

"And they're succeeding. People are afraid of them. They think if they join his little group they'll be safe. There's only one person who can really help us stop this, and she's in this room." Louis implied, looking straight at me. 

"Me? No way. I don't even have any powers yet!" I said, startled. 

"You will though! Powerful powers take more time to progress." Niall claimed, smiling at me from across the room. 

"We should probably head out though, it's getting quite late. We still don't know what Jensen's planning...He could attack at any second." Liam let out. 

"It's not like we couldn't handle him though. I want him to attack. I'm ready." Zayn growled. 

"I know you want revenge Zayn, but we don't know what kind of powers Jensen has on his side. We're not ready." Liam said sternly. Zayn just sighed, and nodded. The other four boys started to get up, and Louis came and hugged me from behind. 

"Just try and work on showing some powers, okay? We're running out of time." 

"Easier said then done." I grumbled. Louis smiled and winked at me, then skipped towards the door. Niall stood in front of me, holding his arms out for a hug. I stood up and wrapped my arms around him tightly. 

After the boys and Ashleigh left, (Harry had offered to walk her home and she accepted willingly) I collapsed on my bed and closed my eyes. 

"I haven't even been here for a week, and things are already getting complicated." I moaned. 

"It's so cool that you guys have abilities though! Not like me. I'm just plain, old Alea." Alea whined, climbing into her bed as well. 

"What do you think your powers are?" 

"If I knew, things would probably be less complicated." I groaned.
