Arbithea - Nicole K. Garrett (best novels to read to improve english .TXT) 📗

"Alexander, wake up or you’re going to be late for school on the first day!" My mom called from downstairs.
Yes that's me Alexander a girl not a boy. Most people just call me Kenya or Alex for short. My parents wanted another boy like my older brothers, to better the chance of one of them being a leader of my home planet, Arbithea, or a protector of the higher orders, but they got stuck with me instead. Only a boy can get powers and go to the school of super naturals. The only other time a girl has actually had powers.But somehow it happened to this girl named Soverina,where she ended up having almost every power known to man, well creature, but she disappeared about 3 years ago unknown. The only thing I'm really good at is fighting and I have no idea where I got that from and I'm pretty strong for a girl especially on Arbithea where the only ones that are suppose to be stronger are the men.
I'm the only girl in my family of guys excluding my mom, which would make my brothers think they have to be extra protective over me. With me being the youngest and all, plus with our inhumanly beauty it makes things worst even though I'm 16.
"Kenya get up I'm driving and you have 20 minutes to get ready before we're late." My twin brother Kyle said.
I opened one eye to see him standing at my door holding up his iPhone to show me the time. I groaned and rolled out of bed falling on the floor with a loud thud. "Ouch I felt that all the way over here." Kyle said laughing.
Since me and Kyle are twins he can feel what I feel or know what I'm thinking unless I block him out, which is really not natural for girls to do.
I got off the floor and threw a pillow at Kyle which he easily dodged by closing the door so I wouldn't hit him. After I finished changing I walked across the hallway to the bathroom. The door was closed so I knocked and waited.
"Yes?" My 17 year old brother Trey called. "Hurry up I need the bathroom Trey." I said. The door opened and Trey walked out. "O.k. little sis the bathroom is all yours." He said ruffling my already messed up hair.
I walked in the bathroom closing the door behind me and fixing my hair. Then I brushed my teeth and washed my face.
"Hey Kenya." My oldest brother Simon said while knocking on the door.
"What?" I called.
"Kyle looks just about ready to leave you I thought you might want to know that." He said. Simon's 19 and had just been recently chosen to train as a protector, so he's going to be leaving back to Arbithea in a few months, sadly. After he does leave we won’t get to see him for 2 years.
I ran back in my room and grabbed my phone then ran downstairs to the kitchen and found my parents sitting at the table.
My mom smiled and handed me a muffin.
"Hey sweetie ready for you first day at a new school?" She asked. We had moved from Arbithea because of a few problems I might have caused, or did cause, but it's not like I hurt anyone.....that badly.
I smiled and nodded. And for some reason my parents never got mad at me or punished me. They always said it was just a part of growing up and they acted the same when they were my age too. But personally I think it's because I live with a bunch of boys.
"Now don't cause any more trouble, because we won’t be moving again." My dad said. I laughed and gave them a hug and walked out the kitchen into the living room with my brothers.
"Bye guys. Where's Dex and Jason?" I asked.
Dex is the second oldest and Jason is Trey's twin. They can do the same thing Kyle can do but a lot more since their older than us. Everyone but my mom and I have different powers.
"They're upstairs." Trey said. I nodded.
"Alright, can you tell them I said bye?" I asked walking out the door.
I got in the passenger side of the car and checked myself in the mirror. "Took you long enough." Kyle said putting the car in reverse.

'Yeah whatever it's not like you would have left me.' I thought to myself forgetting Kyle could hear me.'

"Actually, I was going to leave you. You can drive yourself you know." Kyle said. He smirked and backed out the driveway.
I just rolled my eyes.

"Well maybe I just want to pollute less by having you drive me to school." I said smiling

.

The drive to school only took about 30 minutes, but we still ended up being late so we headed towards the office for the schedules and uniforms. The school campus looked really amazing, more like a college than a high school, but still amazing. We walked into the building getting lots of weird stares from most of the students. I have to admit Kyle and I do look pretty amazing considering we came from a different world and all. The only thing different about us is our size, hair, and gender of course. Kyle has a pretty muscular built figure and he's about a foot taller than me. I've got an athletic built figure, not like my brothers but still able to take anyone down. We both have freckles and eyes that change colors depending on our mood, but our normal color is an exotic green with orange in the middle and tiny flecks of blue and yellow. Kyle has blonde hair that shines even in the dark and I have strawberry-red mid back length hair.
Kyle nudged me in the side bringing me out of my thoughts. I didn't even realize we were in the front office. "Oh I'm sorry ma'am what did you say?" I asked politely while she stared at Kyle. The girl sitting at the desk looked to be one of the students with big brown eyes and curly blonde hair. She wasn't really attractive though, maybe average for my brother.
"Can you please tell me your full real name?" She said gazing at Kyle. I rolled my eyes. "Alexander Kenya Parker." I said snapping my fingers to get her attention.
"Okay." She said blankly then looked back to Kyle with a flirtatious smile.
"What's your name?" She asked Kyle.
"Kyle Justin Parker." My brother said smiling at her. She slowly looked away from Kyle and handed him two pieces of paper, uniforms, and books.
"Um, here are your things, just go sit in those chairs over there and I'll have someone come and escort you to your classes." She said. Kyle winked making her melt into a puddle and pulled me with him to the chairs. We sat down and waited on our so called escort to come.
"Why do you do that?" I asked Kyle. He looked up from his phone and stared at me.
"Do what?"
"Lead girls on but never asking them out, I understand we look absolutely amazing but come on now that's not even necessary." I say irritated. Kyle shrugged and smirked.
"O.k. well when I find the right girl I promise I won't do that anymore." He said. I stared at him to see if he was lying then nodded. "Fine." He smiled and pulled his IPhone back out.
"Excuse me are you Alexander and Kyle Parker." I turned around to find a girl with short blonde pixie hair and pink streaks in it smiling at us.
"Yea that's us, are you me and my sisters escort?" Kyle asked standing up. She nodded and smiled showing a set of pearly white teeth.
"My name’s Rose by the way." She said extending her hand out to us.
We shook her hand and followed her out the building into the school. "So what's ya'll first class?" She asked in a thick country accent turning around. I slid my books to my other arm pulling out my schedule. "Um...Science room 312." I said. Kyle looked down at his schedule and frowned. "Looks like I won't be having the first class with you sis." He looked up.
"Here let me see your schedule." I hands him my schedule and shifted my books again.
"I'll see you at study hall, lunch, and athletics, but that pretty much it." He said handing it back to me. Rose smiled sadly.
"It's o.k. I have most of my classes with you except for the first one so I can be your first friend, but I'm pretty sure you two will do just fine with friends." Rose said.
I smiled and looked at Kyle who was looking at his phone. "Okay, I'm going to show you guys to you locker and take you to your classes and after your classes are over just meet me at your lockers again." She said.
She took us to our lockers, which happened to be at the other end of school, (sadly and I don't have the slightest idea of how we’re supposed to go to our lockers and make it to class on time) and took me to my first class. We stood in front of a door that said 312 above it. "O.k. here your class and don't worry about your clothes, I'm pretty sure they'll know that your new." Rose said then smiled and walked over to the stairs. "Don't into too much trouble because now I won’t be there to hold you back." Kyle said patting my head and walked up the stairs to Rose.
I breathe in deeply and sighed knocking on the classroom door. "Come in." A male’s voice said. I opened the door and walked in having all eyes on me. "Hello you must be our new student Alexander." He said. I nodded and waved looking around the classroom seeing many different faces mostly interests in my appearance.
"Great you came just in time for the experiment we were about to, but all you have to do is watch since your new." He said.
"You can go sit in the back beside Travon." He pointed towards the back of the class. I walked to the empty seat beside a brown headed boy. I nodded and walked over to the table and sat down.
"Was sup I'm Travon you must be the new girl Alexander. You know I kind of thought you were going to be a dude not some really hot-" I cut him off.
"Yea o.k. but just call me Kenya please." I said glaring at him.
