Chapter 1----- Page 4

         “Hmmm, maybe if I stick it in some water. Okay, okay, this will work let’s just find some water.” Convincing himself that would work Jack started to look for some water hoping it would put out the inexplicable flames on his hand. Luckily there was a bottle nearby at least Brett and his goons where good for something.  Quickly unscrewing the cap jack douses his hand in the water. “SHSHSHSHSHSHSHSHSH!” the water turned to steam upon contact with his hand.


                   “Oh my god, this is getting ridiculous. I need my hand back already. Let’s just work on fiery appendages later today.” As if reading his mind his hand stopped churning out fire. “Well that’s odd apparently complaining about it turns it off. I should have tried that earlier. I’ll figure out what happened to me later right now I need to get to the game. Hopefully they haven’t started without me.” Shrugging his shoulders Jack starts to jog further into the park heading toward the soccer field.

         Several minute later he arrives.  “I am here, the game can start!” Jack yells as he walks over. “Sorry about being late I ran into Brett and some of his friends. I simply had to stop and chat with them.” Sarcasm drips from his voice.

         “Well as long as you’re fine we’ll forgive you. Just know ,your team is losing 5-2, I’m crushing it out here.” Tom brags as he stands with one foot on the ball. “Let’s do this.” Flicking the ball up he headbutts it to James who takes of down the field, dribbling as the rest of the players dash after him.



      Quickly he flicks it back to Tom who lines up for a kick only to be shut down by Jack. Swooping in he steals the ball for his team. “Jessica, get ready for it!” Jack shouts to the defender as he launches it toward her. The pass is good. Jessica takes the ball half way up to midfield before firing it into the air toward the opposing goal like a rocket. Jack takes off racing toward the ball. Flying down the field he kicks up the dirt.
