The Magic Touch

Flashback Chapter 2

~~~~~Sam's POV~~~~~

It has been three or more months since I have been sent here with my brother. It's just us and Solo here now from our gang. Jane and the others all got adopted long ago.There are still others here though; lots from before we got here and even some new ones that came in about two month ago.

It was after lunch when I heard the news. We were getting some new kids; the best part is that they were girls. The last ones that came in were all boys.

I ran up to where Duo and Solo were playing with a ball; I think that's what it was.

"Solo, Duo." I called to them. "I just heard that the new kids are coming in today." Back then I was happy just because I would have other kids to play with. Later I learned to realize that new kids weren't such a good thing.

They smiled at me then continued with there game.

It wasn't till later when I met them. I suppose they were kept away inside until the end of our outdoor time because of the other kids. Being the new kid was never fun.

Later that night I got to met them finally. There were extra beds in my room because all of the other girls got adopted.

As soon as I got in the room I saw them putting the stuff that they brought with them away, and I guess there was some other stuff there too.

"Hi!" I said cheerfully. I don't think that they heard me come into the room because they jumped a little at my voice.

I walked closer to the girl with the green eyes.

"Sorry I startled you" I started "My name is Samantha. What's yours?" then I turned to the other girl, she's Asian I think "And yours too, please."

They looked scared; I wondered what happened to their families.

"I am Krisi Young." The Asian one spoke first.

"I'm Nicole Koto." The green eyed girl spoke softly.

"When `id ya got `ere?" I asked my English started to slip because I was getting nervous.

They looked at me weird; I think it was because of my accent that was returning.

"We arrived here just a little earlier." The Asian, named Krisi, told me.

I was just nodding as she talked. I realized that Nikki doesn't talk much.

"Well…Welcome. You'll get to meet my brother tomorrow."

That night I had another dream. I haven't had one like that in years. It was vague but I knew I felt a lot of heat; maybe it was fire.

When I awoke it was still dark. I saw an outline of someone sitting up on one of the beds.

It took me a moment to recognize who it was. The new girl, Nikki, was crying. Not loud mind you, just silent tears. How can I tell this in the dark? You may ask. Blame it one the streets; that and the hall light was on.

I walked over to her and sat on her bed. She obviously didn't hear me coming because when I sat down she jumped a little.

"Why are you crying?" I asked quietly so not to wake the person in the other bed.

Trying to wipe tears away she started to tell me.

"I was thinking about my parents." She started to choke up "It was my fault… all my fault." Again she cried.

"I'm sure it wasn't, wanna tell me what `appen" I smiled reassuringly at her but I don't the light allowed that to be seen.

She nodded and told me everything. Little did she know that that would be the most she would be the most she would ever say to anyone for a very long time.

~~~~~next morning~~~~~

I woke up and realized that there was something wrong. I wasn't in my own bed.

`I must have fallen asleep while talking to her. O well.' After that thought I fell back to sleep; not bothering to move to my own bed.

~~~~~Nikki POV~~~~~

It was some time to go now and all I could think of was `finally'. The organizers at my orphanage took forever to get everything together.

I was almost glad that I was leaving this colony though; almost because it is my home for both good and bad.

Krisi was coming with me too; I was hoping that it was nice over there. I soon as I got my stuff together; which wasn't much. It just the stuff that they gave my while I was here; it was time to go.

I can remember sitting in the car with Krisi, we were going to the shuttle port. We were allowed to ride on the shuttle alone; who in their right minds would allow two 10 year olds in the shuttle without an adult with them. There was someone waiting on the other side for us.

The shuttle ride was uneventful to say the least. It was positively boring.

When we finally go to the orphanage is was already after meal time. Oh well, I didn't quite want to meet any of the other kids yet anyways.

Krisi and I were ushered in to a room. I was so happy to be sharing a room with her again, because then I wouldn't have to be alone.

I was in the middle of unpacking my things when she came in.

Not that she was bad or anything just really hyper.

"Hi," She said almost too cheerfully. I looked over to her a bit startled. Then she came closer to me to offer an apology.

"Sorry I startled you. My name is Samantha. What's yours?" She asked me then turned to my friend and asked the same to her.

I stared at her. `How can anyone be so happy in a place like this? I wonder what her past was like.'

"I am Krisi Young" I heard Krisi tell Samantha.

Samantha then turned to me. "Nikki Koto." I replied to her action

"When `id ya got `ere?" Was here next question; I could clearly hear an accent in her voice then.

I think I was staring again, that's when Krisi spoke up again.

"We arrived here just a bit earlier."

"Well, welcome." The girl started again. "You'll get to meet my brother tomorrow."

`Brother?'

That night my sleep was plagued by nightmares. Dreams of the past, sort of; clues to what had happened to my parents. I know deep down that it was me that caused my parents death. With my fire; that's how it was done, no one believes me.

I awoke from my dreams in a fright. I started to cry, I couldn't help it. I looked over to see that Krisi was still asleep. `She didn't wake this time,' I thought.

But someone was awake; Sam came over and sat on the bed next to me.

"Why are you crying?" She asked me innocently.

I sat up a little straighter and wiped at my eyes.

"I was thinking about my parents." `Why am I telling her this?' "It was my fault…All my fault." I started to tear up again.

"I'm sure it wasn't; wanna tell me what `appen." She said as she tried to comfort me.

So I told her everything that happened in my past. I haven't said this much in a long time.

I didn't even know why I was saying all of this, but it felt right.

~~~~~next morning~~~~~

I woke up from a movement on my bed. It took me a moment to realize that the girl I met yesterday, Sam, was there. `We must have fallen asleep.'

~~~~~Sam's POV~~~~~

When I woke up again it was time fore breakfast.

"`morning." I said to the new girls.

All I heard was sleepy grumbles from the both of them in return.

"Com'on we hafta get down for breakfast, or we'll get the soggy leftovers." I told them, in hopes that they would move faster; no such luck.

We finally got down for breakfast and I got to see my brother, and Solo again. I ran up to them, momentarily forgetting my new friends, and gave them a big good morning hug.

Duo patted my as I hugged him. "`morning, Bro" I mumbled and at that moment I remembered my friends.

"Duo, Solo these are the new kids; Krisi and Nikki."

They all said hello and that was it. I know that Duo liked them because he spoke to them and Solo liked them as well for the same reason.

This was great, but things were going to change.

It started when my brother got adopted again. I didn't worry at first because he would come back within two weeks like every other time; but he didn't this time, he wasn't coming back.

When I was hit with this realization, I started to cry on Solo's shoulder. He, Nikki, and Krisi tried to cheer me up but it didn't work.

Then one day when Sister Helen was on the other side of the orphanage Nikki got into another fight with one of the boys.

~~~~~Nikki POV~~~~~

I didn't mean to for it to happen like this. I was already stressed out cause Sam was crying about her brother. And I was also stressed about Duo leaving, we've became such good friends then this happened.

In a few weeks of coming here everyone at the orphanage new my story; Sam said it was normal and it would blow over soon.

It didn't; instead it got worse.

The feeling of fire came over me once again.

Sister Helen was on the other side of the orphanage talking to some adults.

One of the older boys cornered me. He started to talk about my parents again; started to say it was entirely my fault. Then he laughed cruelly.

It started to heat up. Fire started and I know that this time it was me.

I had to get every one out.

"Sam! Krisi! Where are you?" I couldn't find them.

When I finally got to them I pushed them out the door; they were safe.

I had to find solo. He was the only person left in this building that was ever nice to me, he was the only person left in that building that I cared about. For Sam's sake and for the rest of us I had to find him.

I looked everywhere for him; including his room. He was no where to be found. I couldn't go on any longer; it was no use. I fainted.

~~~~~Sam's POV~~~~~

All I could see was the fire. Then this feeling came over me, I was able to move a heavy object off of Krisi's ankle. The strange part was I didn't use my hands.

Next thing I know was Nikki pushing me and Krisi though a door.

When I saw Nikki go back in I tried to go after her. I tried to get her back; Krisi held me back.

Some time later I saw a figure bringing her back to us. The figure smiled and ran off into the distance.

'I wonder who that was'
