I could hear a voice drifting towards me and Alex, sweet and familiar. The words were familiar too, they reminded me of my family. That was when I saw the shape of a girl and a boy, walking towards us, obviously the source of the singing. A cloud of most swept in front of us, causing Alex to hug me out of fear. " Hello, Isabella Kelly, " Called a boy's voice, and I realised it was the boy, " I take it that you did... this, " Nodding vigorously, I saw my cousin Casey. His short, black hair tucked behind his ears, his slightly aggressive stare, his old, baggy clothes. The girl, who was our age, was his older sister, Jess. Her long wavy black hair flowing down her back as it always did. They both have identical brown eyes that are nearly black. Jess elbowed Casey, glancing at Alex. They know who she is, Jess is in the other class and Casey the year below us. "Um, I do know about your... capabilities," Alex said and I thought Jess would shout at her. Although in actual fact, I was the one who got the blame. Luckily enough, she wasn't that angry because Alex had asked her what she could do and she is so self-centered and vain. Her power is cool though, she has weather control. Casey's is cooler though, he has shadow. He can teleport through shadow, become a shadow and control shadows. He was also lucky, he got his 4 years ago when he was nine! Jess got here's last year, she was 13 so she got her power late too, but not as late as me. Kelsie got here's when she was eight and she learnt them quickly. I also know she was singing, she loves music and Casey hates it. "... I asked her if she could cont- Oh, hi Izzy! " Alex said as I walked over, clearly attempting to hide she'd been chatting about me. " Hi, guys. So I'd like to ask you guys something. How did you get here? " I asked.They all talked at once, and I only heard fragments of their stories, so I told them to slow down. " Me first! I was in chess club and I just packed up my stuff when I saw this mist thingy, so I wandered over and I got sucked into a whirlpool. I found Casey and I looked for anyone else but I didn't see anyone until you two appeared, " Jess told us, baffling me even more. How did she get sucked in? " I was on the skatepark showing off some cool new tricks. Then, I heard her and I followed and I was zooming down a roller coaster. Finally, I saw my sis so I went with her to look for you - well, anyone really, " Casey declared. " I was texting you, Isabella. Then I saw my phone glow and vibrate and I thought, 'Hang on, this shouldn't do that ' then it became a portal glowy door and I went through it and I fell off a cliff, then I tumbled into you and I decided we must be travelling through time, because why not? There, that's my story " Alex added, making me nervous. How could they have got there? After I filled them in on my side, we tried to find ways out, to no avail. Yet we learnt something useful because Casey noticed we didn't have any shadows. That meant there wasn't any light, although everything was lit up. All of a sudden, I heard Jess shriek and whipped round to see my cousins being swept away in a blue swirl. "Jess, Casey!" I cried, but there was no hope . All I could do was hope they hadn't been hurt.
Credit to my friends Casey and Jess, you demanded these cousins!
