Super WEIRD Heroes - Book 1
The Beginning and At Home
“Come on Blake,” said Jeriah, helping his
wife, out of their new car.
“I'm coming, Jer.” answered Blake.
Blake and Jeriah Trant had been married for almost 10 years and had just
had triplets, their first children, and all 3 were girls. The girls were
identical, but they had a few differences. Cyl Dawn the oldest by 6 ½
seconds, had sky blue eyes. All the girls had dark tan skin, and coal
black hair. Alix Brook had green eyes, like her father. Cyl and Ailx's
sister was the youngest by almost half an hour. The doctors were afraid
she wasn't going to survive, this little girl was a fighter. Aim Ari was a
mirror image of her mother. The suntanned skin, the shiny coal black hair
and the sea-colored blue-green eyes.
Their mother who was full Hindu, and their father was half Ute and half
Cherokee. Blake had come to America when she was in her teens, and Jeriah
was born there. Blake had gone through the naturalization process to
become a US citizen, a few months before the triplets were born.
“We'll have to hurry. Looks like a thunderstorm.” said Jeriah as he held
his wife's hand and two of the little girls.
All of a sudden there was a loud crash and a bolt of lightning. The whole
Trant family except Cyl had been struck by lightning. Blake was killed
instantly, but Jeriah, Alix, and Aim were glowing, a bright yellow. There
was a strange feeling of warmth, and happiness, but it was lost when
Jeriah saw his wife's singed body lying on the ground. Jeriah brought his
little girls to the cabin at the foot of a mountain, then went to bury his
beloved wife. Now he had to care for three girls, all by himself.
“What is it going to be like?” he wondered ...
“Come on Aim! Time to get up! We have to get ready for school!” yelled
Alix as she banged on her sisters bedroom door.
“I don't want to get up.” came the muffled answer.
Alix stared at the door, the air was getting colder and colder, then she
heard what she wanted to hear:
“Alix! Cut it out! I'm getting up!”
The air went back to normal just as Jeriah, the girls dad came out of his
room. Only two of his girls Alix and Aim had powers. Cyl had none, but
like she cared. Jeriah could control time. Alix could control temperature,
and Aim, technology. It wasn't necessarily good because the two would get
in fights, a lot. Jeriah's wife had died 17 years ago, after being struck
by lightning, so he was left to raise 3 girls by himself. Some of his
family lived nearby, they helped him, so he had survived.
“Come on Aim. I'm not going to have another talk with your principal
because your once again late for school.”
Aim opened the door and stepped out.
“I don't want to go to school.”
“Well, that's a bummer,” said Cyl, as she came out of the bathroom.
Aim just walked past her, and outside where she went to the barn to feed
the horses. After Aim fed the horses and took care of the animals, she
came inside for breakfast. After that she and her sisters got dressed and
walked to the bus stop ….
Super WEIRD Heroes – Book 2 School and The News
It was technology class, and Aim was done with her work. She heard
giggling from the other side of the room, and she wanted to know what it
was. Aim, having powers for technology, had hacked into the student chat
and found who was giggling. It was the school bullies, Brittani and her
'friend' Ashlee, and they were making fun of Alix. Aim quickly made a new
student that didn't exist and typed to the bullies. After a few minutes
the giggling stopped.
“Mr. Flan? This student said something mean to me.” she whined.
Mr. Flan hurried over, and then asked:
“Who is Blake Podhar?”
Everyone was quiet, no one knew a Blake Podhar. Aim saw Cyl give her a
knowing look.
“Maybe it's a student from another class.” Aim suggested.
Brittani glared at Aim, Aim just gave her, an innocent smile, and went
back to work.

“Nice trick you pulled back there.” said Brittani when she, Ashlee, and
Aim were at their lockers.
“Thanks.”
“That wasn't a compliment, Aim.” Brittani irritated by Aim's courage to
talk back to her.
“Didn't you notice the sarcasm in my voice?” asked Aim as she slammed her
locker and walked off...
As Aim sat at her desk, bored to death because she had finished her tech
work early, a message showed up in her chat log:
SkateBoardrDude – HuntbyBow, huh?
HuntbyBow – yea ...

When the girls got home their father called they had dinner with their
father and hung out by the lake swimming, and roasting marsh mellows until
in was time to go to bed.
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 3 New Friends
As Alix walked into school, her principal Mr. Baldpal called her over, and
asked her to take a new girl to her locker which was by hers. The girl had
fish-net tights, and torn black skinny-jeans, a torn red mini-skirt, a
black turtle-neck, and a red short-sleeved zip-up hoodie on.. Then she had
a plaid red and black open-toed flats. The girl had painted flames up her
hands and cheeks over top a pale white skin. She had stuck a flame pick in
her hair and painted her eyelids and lips black, and her nails were a
bright neon orange. Her name was Chel, and she was pretty cool. She sat by
Alix during lunch, then took her to the basket ball court.
“Do you have super powers?”
“N- … Why would you think that?” asked Alix..
“Your blue hair, read eyes, and yellow skin! What's your power?”
“Ok, ok. I can control temperature One time I made it cold enough for a
blizzard, and we had 5 days of snow. Do you have a power?”
“Yeah, we got relocated because some one found out. Mine is-”
“-Wait. Let me guess. You can control fire.”
“How'd you guess.?” asked Chel.
“The flaming accessories?” suggested Alix.
Chel went on to explain her siblings, their powers, and how they got them.
“Hey cool, the same thing happened to me, except my mom didn’t make it, my
dad and my sisters did though. My dad has the power to control time, Aim
can control technology, and Cyl is Goth. She doesn’t have a power, that we
know of, anyway.”
“Please stop my mind Alix. I am thinking that maybe my mom and your dad…”
“Oh that would be so cool!”
“You think they might… possibly get married?!”
“Yeah!”
“This is going to take some planning…”
So Chel’s day went pretty well… but what about her sisters’?
Aim was bored, so she started to mess with Brittani and Ashlee. First she
shut down their computers, then when Mr. Flan rushed over to fix it, they
turned on again. She kept this up for about 10 minutes, until she shutdown
all the electronics in the school except hers. When the guys from the
electricity company came and opened everything up to fix it, she made
everything turn back on again.
GothGirl_01 – lol nice 1
HuntbyBow – thnx
SkateBoardrDude – that ws weird – only urs didnt shut down …
HuntbyBow – I no, odd …
QueenBritt – y did our computrs shut down? Then only urs stay on wen

HuntbyBow – lady in waiting huh
LadynWaitin – yea, u got a prob
HuntbyBow – no, but y r u waitn on her
QueenBritt – cuz she cn! Leav her alone!
HuntbyBow – bye-bye!
Aim logged off and went over to where Cyl was sitting.
“That was a nice one.” whispered Cyl.
“Thanks. Just don't tell dad. He'll kill me.”
“I know.” giggled Cyl, as she logged off and stood up.
Aim felt a buzzing in her black skull hoodie pocket. It was her phone,
playing Alix's ringtone. The chorus to the song Final Day, by a German
band Tokio Hotel.
“Sup?” asked Aim into the receiver
“Come outside by the big tree in the parking lot.” said Alix into the
phone, then she hung up.
“What'd she want?” asked Cyl.
“She wanted us to meet her by the big tree in the parking lot. Lets go.”
When the girls got there, there was 5 other girls with different colored
hair and Alix, all giggling and talking. Alix introduced Aim and Cyl to
Clara, Drew, Rachel, Felicity, and Sunny. Chel explained about Alix and
Aim, who had powers. She explained about Cyl being away from the family
when they had gotten struck by lightning. She told about how the mother
had died and the Dad had lived. And she also told them about the plan to
get the two together. All seemed perfect and joyful until the 8 of them
reached the new house. Smoke billowed into the clear sky. Clara and Alix
worked to put the fire out. When the heat was gone and the flames had
disappeared, the house collapsed. Four of the girls, Clara, Drew, Sunny,
and Felicity cried.
“Hey!” exclaimed Alix. “You guys can move in with us! We've got enough
room.”
So the Trant girls talked to their dad, who agreed and the Josen girls
asked their mom, and she agreed...
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 4 New Family?
When the Josen's moved in with the Trant's they told them their real
names. Clara was Pricilla, Drew was Demitr, Rachel was Miranda, Felicity
was Fawn, and Sunny was Samantha, and their mother's real name was
Crystal, not Cynthia. Clara had decided to change her name to Clair
though, she said Clara sounded to much like an old grandma lady, and she
did not want to be thought of as an old grandma lady.
Aim, Alix and Chel shared the basement and called it “their apartment that
they shared with the family”. Chel and Alix were already pretty much BFF's,
but Aim was still getting used to it. Clair had the previous office on the
first floor, Drew had the bedroom on that floor, Cynthia, using her powers
converted the sunroom into her bedroom, Sunny got the guest room on the
2nd floor, Felicity and Cyl shared the other bedroom on that floor, and
Jeriah was forced into the attic.
The Trant's had 4 horses, one for each of them. Frisky was white with
leopard spots, Alix was his master. Outlaw was a buckskin colt, Aim had
trained him, she didn't want to break him, not yet anyway. Cop was a pure
bread black stallion, Cyl had broken him her self, but she did it in such
a way, that he was still wild. Ranger was Jeriah's sorrel mare, his
brother had a mare that was foaling and Ranger was her foal. That day the
Trant's and Josen's went to to a stable where they found horses for the
Josen's. Cynthia pointed out a gray mare named Rosie, and Clair got
Rosie's foal Radio, who was also gray. Chel found a strawberry roan named
Fireball, who she fell in love with instantly. Drew found an amazing white
mare with a brownish mane named Airhead. Sunny found a tan mustang with a
black mane named Sunny. Figures! Felicity bought a chestnut mare named
Mudster. After the girls put the horses away, Chel and Alix, made an
announcement, mainly to Cynthia and Jeriah.
“We got you a gift certificate for melting pot, Jeriah because he took us
in, and Mom because you have been able to take care of us kids for so
long.” Chel started.
“And we’d like you guys to go tonight.” Alix finished.
“I guess that’s fair.” said Jeriah before going upstairs to get ready.
Alix, Aim, and Cyl followed him to pick out his outfit. The other girls
lead their mom to her room to get her ready. She ended up wearing a long
red halter-top dress. Chel singed it at the bottom. They put her hair up
into a loose wide bun, held with a rose. Chel lent Cynthia her fish-net
tights, and Cyl lent her 4 inch spike black sandals. Jeriah wore the suit
he wore to his brother wedding.
When everything was perfect and the grown-ups were off. The girls went
outside and rode around the corral.
* * *
Clair was almost asleep when she heard the door open. She rushed to the
doorway just in time to see Jeriah kiss Cynthia’s cheek and put her jacket
in the coat closet. Jeriah hopped up the stairs and Cynthia leaned her
head down to sniff something. It was a dozen red roses! Cynthia walked to
her room and shut the door. Aim, Alix and Chel opened the door to the
basement and walked out. Sunny, Felicity and Cyl snuck down the stairs.
All the girls crowded into Drew’s room.
“I saw… I saw…” Clair sputtered.
“What? What did you see?” Chel demanded.
“Jeriah kissed moms cheek. She had a dozen roses in her hand!”
“REALLY!?” Alix exclaimed.
“Dad hasn’t gone out with anyone since mom died; much less kissed another
woman on the cheek!” said Cyl.
“The only other woman dad's kissed is grandma.” said Aim.
“Yea, but I'm not sure grandma would count as a woman because of her
mustache” giggled Alix.
“Ewwww!!!” squealed Clair.
The girls laughed and celebrated their triumph with a late-night movie,
virgin apple cider champagne, and extra butter popcorn…
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 4 I Want A Mom!
“So mom,” Chel said, “did you enjoy the melting pot?
“I sure did.”
It took all Chel had to keep from giggling with excitement.
“What was your favorite part?”
“Miss. Hothead, do you know what the melting pot is?”
“Yeah I do. I went there twice with friends and my sisters on girls night
out.”
“Then you shouldn’t even have to ask.”
“Let me guess, the chocolate fondue?”
Alix giggled, she wanted to know what her dad might do next.
“Oh yeah, with the pound cake, chocolate marsh mellows, and other sweet
things to dip in the milk and white chocolate.”
“Ok then did you like the main course or the cheese fondue better.”
“Well the cheese fondue was delicious. But the sirloin and all that good
stuff to cook your self to perfection was by far the best tasting in the
world.”
“What kind of cheese did you get?”
“We got cheddar.”
“Good choice.”
Chel was so relieved that their blind date had gone so well. Now she might
finally get a dad! She had everyone thinking that she was a bad girl, but
really, Chel was just sad she didn’t have a dad to go to for the tom-boy
stuff. Speaking of dads, Jeriah practically skipped down the stairs.
“Good morning girls. How are you Cynthia?”
“Morning papa.” said Aim as she came upstairs still in her black kitty
pj's she got form Hot Topic.
“Just peachy.”
“Good! Are you making a skillet?”
“Yes, it’s a Cambridge skillet.”
“How’d you know that’s my favorite?!”
“Woman’s intuition?”
“Nice!”
“Thanks.”
“Listen Cynth, I have a cocktail party to go to tonight that my boss is
throwing. Would you like to go with me?”
“Like a date?”
“Well, um, uh, yeah.”
“I’d love to.”
Chel had backed away and down the stairs.
“YOUR DAD ASKED MY MOM OUT!!!”
“REALLY!?!?!?” Alix exclaimed.
“YEAH!”
“We’re gonna be sisters.” Chel and Alix sang.
“Let’s see how they do getting ready by them-selves?” Alix suggested.
“Nah!” they cried in unison.
When Chel and Alix were getting ready for school, Chel got a shock. She
looked at Alix who was standing in front of the mirror. Chel saw Alix,
with blue hair, yellow skin, and red eyes, but her reflection in the
mirror showed her having tanned skin, coal black hair, and red eyes. It
was then that she realized that only people with powers could see how Alix
and Aim really looked. Everyone else saw them like they were normal. Chel
yearned for that quality.
QueenBritt – I hear u tk in sm hmless ppl
Cold100 – they rnt hmless britnnie
Alix purposely miss-spelled Brittani's name, because when someone
miss-spelled her name she got MAD.
QueenBritt – that is NOT how u spell my nm! And u NO it!
Cold100 – really? idk that. L8r jerk
Alix logged off, and left the room, making it grow colder, and colder as
she left. She met Drew in the cafeteria finishing off her lunch.
“Hey, you wanna leave school early?” she asked.
“You can do that?” asked Drew surprised.
“Yup. The other girls just left a few minutes ago.”
“I'd be glad to.” answered Drew.
So the girls left school, and joined the others down by the lake that was
on their property...
* * *
*
“I want you girls to be good. Cyl nice, Alix don't use your power for
unneeded uses, and Aim, no hacking into government files.” joked Jeriah as
she kissed his girls on their foreheads, and went out the door with
Cynthia.
“Yes!” exclaimed Alix.
“I know!” answered Chel.
“You guys wanna go on a trail ride or down to town?” asked Aim.
“What's in town?” asked Clair.
“It's got the usual stuff, and girls to make fun of.” answered Aim
shrugging her shoulders.
“Can we like ride bikes or skateboard there?” asked Felicity.
“Sure.” said Cyl going to get her skateboard from her room...
* * * *
As the girls rode into town Aim, Cyl, Alix, Drew, and Chel on skateboards
and Felicity, Clair, and Sunny on bikes, Brittani and Ashlee had just
walked out of a clothing store. Cyl stopped and stopped Sunny.
“Why?”
“You'll see if you give it to me.” Cyl answered.
Sunny reluctantly gave Cyl the bike and took the skateboard. Cyl hopped on
the bike and peddled down towards Brittani and Ashlee. They girls were by
the edge of the sidewalk, where there was a stream of dirty water flowing
down to the gutter. Cyl rode into the stream and when she was by Brittani
and Ashlee she swerved so that a wave of dirty water hit the two bullies
and their new designer clothes.
All the other girls laughed and rode on. When the girls were at a park,
Cyl felt a buzz in her hoodie's pocket. It was a text message from her
dad.
I sw tht.
k.
Drew saw Cyl texting and asked:
“Who is it?”
“My dad.”
“What does he want?” asked Alix.
“He just said he saw what I did.”
“That probably isn't good.” giggled Aim.
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 5
All throughout the next couple months, Jeriah and Cynthia continued going
out. One night however, it hadn’t been 5 minutes since they walked out the
door when Drew heard it slam. She opened her door just a little bit and
saw her mom run into her room. When Cynthia came out she was in jeans,
boots and a sweatshirt. The Woman had tears running down her cheeks as she
ran out the door. Drew pulled on her riding clothes, thinking, that was
what her mom was up to, and followed Cynthia. Drew’s mom was in the
stables petting Rosie.
“Mom, where’s Jeriah?”
“I don’t care.”
“Mom.”
“He drove off.”
“Where?”
“I don’t know and I don’t care.”
“Why are you not with him?”
“Ok, ok. I offered to take my car for once. He said no. I said why not. He
said his car would be better for driving to a dance. Then I wanted to know
why, and he said…”
“He said what mom?”
“He said his car was a little more impressive. I should have scorched
him!”
“Mamma, you know you don’t mean that!”
“I know, I know.”
“I think you both should apologize.”
“Why ME?!”
“Mamma, stop it. Now you are acting like a child and I’m forced to be the
adult. Remember what you told me when Randy melted my favorite shoes?”
“It’s Rachel now hun.”
“Yeah, but it was Randy then. Anyway, you said it takes a friend to make a
friend, and you told me to apologize just for yelling at her when I found
out.”
“Yeah, and because you apologized, it motivated her to apologize and now
you guys are really close.”
“See?”
“Ok, I will.”
Drew went back in and decided to get to sleep early, so she could wake up
at the crack of dawn. She had something borderline mischievous to be ready
for.
The next morning, Josiah practically rolled down the stairs. He could
smell his favorite breakfast, a Cambridge skillet. Cynthia drifted out of
her room, as if in a trance. She could smell her favorite breakfast, eggs
Benedict, lobster stuffed bread, and a steak omelet. Each sat down across
from each other, and started eating. Then all of a sudden they looked up,
as if realizing each other were there for the first time. Drew stepped
away from the couple and the breakfast she had made.
“Jeriah,” Cynthia started, “I’m sorry I made such a big deal about us
going to the dance in my car. You were right, it is more beat up than
yours.”
“Oh Cynthia, I think I was tired and foolish. There is nothing bad about
going places in your car. Why don’t I take you to melting pot tonight? It
was where our first date was. As for this afternoon we can ride to this
place I really want to show you. We can pack a picnic lunch?”
Drew let the couple talk and went to tell her sisters that everything was
ok. She grabbed her backpack and ran downstairs just as Chel threw a
fireball for Alix to catch. The fireball hit Drew’s backpack and it went
up in ashes.
“CHEL!”
“Sorry Drew!”
“You had BETTER be! My homework was in there!!!”
Just then Aim walked up.
“It’s ok,” she said, “I can hack into the school system and give you an
A.”
“Yeah, like I’d get an A!!! HaHaHa. I’m an airhead remember?”
“Ok, a B then.”
So Drew went on to tell then about the picnic in a special spot and the
melting pot date...

Felicity watched her screen change to Brittani's private chat room. Their
house hold called that group the zombies or the zombs.Mainly the girls had
been talking about a boy named Chad and his twin brother Mark or shopping.
But then it started to get dirty.
QueenBrit: I think Sunny should join our group
SissyBoomBah: y? thn her sistrsll wnt 2 join 2
PoppyStar: even the green one! EWE!

“Mr. Flan?” whined Brittani.
“Yes, Brittani?”
“What does 'faux' mean?” Brittani had pronounced it like 'fox' instead of
'pho'.
“You mean 'pho'?”
“No. 'Fox' spelled f-a-u-x.”
“Brittani, thats prounounced 'pho'.” answered Mr. Flan as he went back to
work.
QueenBrit: Pretty? or is this a comeback kind of thing? does it mean mean?

Brit ur roots r cmin in green btw go to wfs.badbritpix.cul
There was a pause while the group went there. Then there was a shriek from
Brittani. Quickly, Felicity went there as well. There she saw a picture of
Brit, looking almost 13 with braces glasses and brown stringy hair. The
room filled with laughter as Aim made the picture pop up on all the
screens. Felicity gave Aim a thumbs up and went back to her work.
At home Jeriah and Cynthia had an announcement.
"Everyone into the living room!" they said.
"OK," started Jeriah, "We've been talking, and I finally got Cynthia to
agree to ………………………………………………….. Get more animals!"
Everyone sighed deeply with disappointment from the announcement not being
that they were going to get married and then shrieked with excitement when
they took in getting more animals.
"Here is a list of animal choices found at the pet store. You may each
pick two choices." Cynthia said.
Felicity looked at the list of animal choices her mother had given her.
1 dog
1 cat
2 rabbits
2 hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats, ect…
5 fish
1 snake
1 large bird
2 smaller birds
1 large lizard
2 small lizards
1 spider
1 ferret
1 exotic animal for rescue
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 7 - Enemies among families
"Hey Sunny!" someone called from across the hall.
"Um, Hi Brit."
"Would you like to sit with us for lunch?"
"Um, Sure."
"Cool, see ya then!"
Brittany walked away. Sunny thought she seemed nice. Her sisters must have
been wrong. During lunch Brit made another leap to get Sunny into their
group.
"So, you wanna come shopping with us after school?"
Shopping?!?! Sunny LOVED shopping!!!!
"Sorry guys, I can't. I have no money."
Everyone laughed. Sunny blushed.
"You don't need money silly!" said Poppy.
"Yeah, Brit's Dad gives us all credit cards in the beginning of the month
holding $5,000! Plus a matching note book to keep track of how much we
spend." Sissy Bee added.
"And it's the beginning of November so we all get new credit cards today!
Daddy always has extras so you can have one too!" Brit pointed out.
"Then I guess it would be ok." Sunny decided.
Brit texted her dad, apparently telling him to bring an extra credit card.
Sunny couldn't believe it! She was becoming popular! She would get 5-star
treatment! HURRAY!
After School Brit lead them all to a hot-pink limo. Her dad was inside and
handed Sunny 4 credit cards, one for each season. Sunny picked the summer
one because it had rolling green hills with a BIG BRIGHT SUN behind them!
Then she was handed the matching note book.
"Ok Sunny, this is how it works. We pick you up every school day around
7:00 am. Mondays and Wednesdays are mall days, and every Friday there's a
sleepover at my house. If your budget goes over $5,000 you pay my daddy
the difference, deal?"
"It's a deal."
Super WEIRD Heroes Book 8 – Midnight Sun
“But dad!” argued Aim.
Jeriah had made his girls stay home because Aim had jammed her wrist
boarding, Alix had the 'fever' and Cyl had a major headache.
“No! Cynthia and the girls know what you guys wanted so their getting
them!”
Aim gave her dad, what he called 'the death glare' and went outside to
check on the horses.
“Hey!” came a voice from behind her.
Cyl turned to see a boy she had seen a few times at school. She and Aim
had gone on a trail ride, and Aim went ahead to set up their archery
targets.
“Um … hi. Who are you?”
“My names Torin. Yours?”
“Um, my names Cyl.”
“Your not as much of a smartmouth as your sister.” laughed Torin.
Torin was on a palomino mustang, whose name was apparently September. Cyl
and Torin talked as Cyl led Torin to the meadow where they found Aim
chasing a horse the color of midnight.
“Midnight!” yelled Aim as the colt bolted again when Aim approached him.
“Midnight,” laughed Torin, “a typical name for a black horse.”
“His full name is Midnight Sun.” muttered Aim as she walked past Torin and
Cyl.
“Midnight Sun. Not a common name. Isn't the midnight sun, the moon?” asked
Torin.
“Duh.” answered Aim as she stuffed a few carrots in the back pocket of her
jeans, and walked over to where Duchess was grazing.
Aim started grooming Duchess who was Outlaws dam. Duchess was a bay mare.
Outlaws sire, Duke, was a sorrel. As Aim groomed Duchess Midnight Sun
slowly and cautiously trotted over to Aim, and tried to take the carrots
from her pocket without her noticing, but Aim was quick. As soon as he
came within reaching distance, she took the bridle that was hanging on a
tree branch and swiftly and talented put it on Midnight.
Midnight reared and tried to retch the reins from Aims hands, but he was
caught. Aim soothed him, and gave him a carrot. Then she walked him over
to where Cyl and Torin where untacking their horses.
“I finally got him.” huffed Aim as she walked up to Cyl.
“Yea, he practically killed you last time.”
“Yea. You never told dad did you?”
Cyl shook her head no. If Jeriah found out Aim almost got trampled to
death by a horse, she would NEVER be able to ride again.
“You ready?” Aim asked Torin.
“Yup.”
Torin had been practicing his archery skills with Aim for about a week
now. He was getting good, but he still needed A LOT of work. This week he
had gotten 1 bulls eye in the past 5 days! NOT his best week. After a few
hours, Cyl got a call from Jeriah saying the Josen's were home and it was
time for dinner. So, the girls and Torin went their separate ways...
Book 9 – New Pets
The entire household was standing over the fenced in puppies. Chel reached
down and picked up the first new pet. It was a pure white 8 week old
Lhasa-Apso. He was named Bandit. Then Clair reached down and grabbed a 9
week old tea cup yorkie named gingerbread. She was the most playful puppy
of the lot. Felicity came up with a multi-colored kitten which she named
flower. Sunny picked out 2 dwarf bunnies. The female was peach colored
named Bright, and the Male was white with brown spots named Light. Cynthia
also got a female and a male dwarf rabbit. They were Wishy and Washy.
Sunny then joined the group carrying Mary and Martha, 2 hamsters. Clair
got 5 molly fish. She named them F, I, S, H, and Y. Clair was definitely
at a loss for names. Drew chose 4 small love birds. They were the most
adorable chicks. Drew named them Ash, Anndie, Bran, and Cram. She had no
idea whether they were boys or girls. Chel announced that she had picked
out a chameleon named Gekko, and Felicity got 2
small lizards named Flor, and Ida. Alix got a rat named Jacques, (she
only wanted 1) and a ball python named Cobra. Then she convinced her dad
to let her get a tarantula named shadow. Aim adopted a Hedgehog named Hans
and a Sphinx named Sphinxter. Cyl chose a ferret named EPM (which is short
for evil poop monster) and adopted a falcon named Falcon.
Book 10 -
Cyl had just finished another grueling hour in her science class. She was
learning about atoms, and electrons, and all that stuff that she didn't
need to know. She KNEW she was NEVER going to grow up to be a scientist.
It was weird, she didn't have any powers, but this morning, Shadow had
escaped, and the girls had found him in Cynthia's room (after she screamed
bloody-murder) and she knew that was going to happen. Aim was thinking she
was going to hang a bucket of ice-cold water above the door of the
principals office and drench the principal when she walked out of the
office, and Cyl knew what she was thinking. So, she told Aim, to 'not even
think about it'. It was odd, and creepy, she wasn't going to tell her dad,
for a few days.
“Maybe it'll go a way in a few days.” she thought, but it had been almost
a week now, and it still hadn't gone away.
Cyl left school early to go on an appointment that Clara had made with her
old power coach ...
“You and your sisters are triplets right?” asked Adria.
“Yea. I'm the oldest by like 6 minutes.”
“Okay. I figured out what it is.” answered Adria.
“What is it?” asked Clara impatiently
“Since you and your sisters are triplets, you do have powers. You can read
minds, and tell the future.”
The room was silent. It made EPM squirm. Cyl did have powers!
“But why do I look normal, and my sisters have different colored skin,
like the Josen's?” asked Cyl.
“Because you can read minds, and tell the future, so you don't look
different.”
“Really?”
“Yup.”
After the discussion with Adria, Cyl and Clara went home. At dinner Cyl
announced that she too had powers. Everyone was happy for her. They
(especially Jeriah and Crystal) had thought that she was sad, and felt
left put, but in reality she didn't.
Book 11 – Hunting Trip
For the Trant's, it was hunting season, but for the Josen's they had
nothing better to do besides shop for new clothes for the winter. Aim went
and got her hunting license before they left, her sisters had already had
theirs.
As the girls set up 'camp' Jeriah checked the rifles and bows, making sure
they were in good shape. He also checked the arrows to see if Cyl had
packed the right kind, she had. He also checked the bullets, which Aim had
packed. The next morning Aim was up before the sun, which was quiet
unusual for her, normally she was up at 12:30, occasionally 10:30. She
didn't want the 'oatmeal' her father had brought, she she took her longbow
and deerskin quiver of arrows, her hunting dog, Tracker, and went down to
the river, to shoot some game …
* *

About 2 hours later, around 7:30 Jeriah woke up. When he checked on the
girls, he saw that Aim's sleeping bag was empty, her bow and quiver of
arrows were gone, and so was Tracker. He quickly woke Cyl and Alix up, and
asked them if they knew where Aim had gone. They groggily said no, they
had not seen where Aim had gone...
* *

Aim thought she was going to be back in and hour to half an hour, but it
might be a lot longer than that ...
* *

Jeriah had King Charles his hunting dog, with Cyl and Alix with their
dogs, Annie, and Boris. The dogs were on the trail of their fellow
companion and master. Charles barked, he could sense that they were close
to Aim and Tracker now.
“What is it boy?” asked Jeriah with a hint of fear in his voice.
Charles tugged on the leash, indicating Aim was close by. Jeriah unclasped
Charles leash as did Cyl and Alix. The 3 dogs ran forward barking the
whole way. Jeriah and the (rest) of the girls did the same.
“King? Annie? Bor?” came a call form near the river. It was Aim.
When Jeriah, Cyl, and Alix (finally) caught up with the dogs they feared
for the worst, but it wasn't bad at all, except for Tracker. When he and
Aim had finally caught enough fish he was excited to get back to the camp
to have some, and in his excitement he didn't see the trap that he put his
paw in, so Aim had to work on getting it out and putting a bandage on it.
It took Aim about half an hour just to get the trap loose enough to get
Track's paw out. Then another half hour to actually get it out of the
trap. Then about an hour to get Tracker's paw in a bandage without her
getting mad at him, and him hurting himself in the doing.
* * * *
There was the sound of ticking and before she knew it her foot was stuck
in a trap. Aim was on her way back to camp, with some fresh game, when she
had stepped in a trap. It was a good thing she had all four dogs with her
this time. Her father and sisters wanted to 'take a break' from hunting
for a day so she got to take all four dogs with her. Aim fell down in
pain, she tired to loosen the trap so she could (try) to slip her foot
out, but no matter which way she turned the screw it just got tighter, and
tighter. She sent King Charles to get her father and/or sisters. But she
sent him almost an hour ago.
'Where could he be?' she wondered. She was starting to get worried that
King hadn't gotten to the camp...
* * * *
Jeriah could hear King's barks a few minutes before he actually appeared.
But, instead of coming and siting next to him for pets, he ran over to his
rifle and took it in his mouth and walked over to Jeriah. Then he ran back
the way he came. He did this a few times before Jeriah got the message.
“Girls!” he called into the girls tent, “Get your rifles, we're going to
find Aim.”
As Jeriah and the girls made their way in the dark through the forest,
Alix looked to the bright side of things. Aim, might have sent King
because she needed help bringing the game home. Or maybe King had ran off
from the pack, and Aim was fine.
“Alix,” said Jeriah, “If there is one thing about you, that I like it's
that you always look at the bright side of things, whereas your sister who
is always getting her self in some sort of trouble has the gift of looking
at the dark side of things, as well as making the most dangerous decisions
ever. The girls giggled, then quieted down when they heard a gunshot ….
* * *
*
“Finally.” Aim grunted as she took her from the trap.
Aim had gotten so ticked off that the trap only got tighter, and tighter,
and not looser, and looser, that she took the handgun, she had brought
along just in case, and put a bullet through the trap, which did in fact,
release her foot from the painful prison it was in for over an hour and a
half. Aim looked at her hands in the little light the moon gave her, and
say that they were covered in her blood. There was a small puddle of water
near her, she looked into it and saw that there was also blood on her
face, from when she touched her face, to wipe away tears of pure torture.
She heard a bark. A bark that sounded distinctively familiar. King Charles
came bounding up to Aim, and licked her blood smeared face, Aim saw her
father and sisters, come into the clearing, following King Charles. After
that incident, Jeriah decided it was time to go home, he didnt want
anything worse to happen to Aim, or her sisters.
