The Super 4 : Dark Death by Harrison Wallace

wasn’t
done.
    She closed her eyes and raised her hands. A
fog swept around us.
    Within a few moments I couldn’t see anything.
Lightning crackled in the background.
    I was entertained at first but now I was
getting bored. I melted.
    As I melted I realized something. My name was
Magma, but I never realized that my liquid form might actually be
lava. That would explain my weird lava abilities.
    I flew upwards in lava form pondering this
latest discovery.
    But yet another wave of water shocked out of
my senses. Thankfully it wasn’t a literate thought. I
shuddered.
    Then remembering I was in liquid form, I
suddenly realized that I was swirling around. I was
separating.
    I quickly made myself human again. Then I
pressed my fire amulet.
    Immediately my costume formed around me. I
made myself heat up.
    All around me the water started boiling and
hissing. I didn’t stop until it disappeared into the air.
Literally.
    I flew straight upwards and out of sight. Then
I circled back and came up behind Carly.
    I tapped her shoulder and made a fire sword.
She jumped and then smiled.
    “ Fine!” She sighed, “You
win!”
    My mouth dropped open. “That was a game!” I
yelled.
    She nodded. “Hello? Have you forgotten the
whole secrecy thing?” She asked. “I’m not as dumb as I look!” She
rubbed her arms as if cold.
    I made a fire and looked questionably at her.
She smiled and shook her head.
    “ I make ice Harrison! I don’t get
cold that often.”
    I put my flame out. “What’s wrong?” I
asked.
    “ Huh?
Oh...umm...Nothing.”
    I stared at her.
    “ Alright! It was the
twins!”
    “ Kevin and Karen?” I asked
stupidly.
    “ No Harrison! Bob and Kate!” She
said sarcastically.
    I jumped back, as if bitten. Carly used to be
the nicest person on earth. I wasn't used to her
sarcasm.
    “ I’m sorry Harrison! It was just
that I hate being treated like some kind of rainless Blondie!” She
apologized. “I just wish they knew I wasn’t some Barbie doll! My
head isn’t empty!”
    She looked off into the distance. Her eyes
shone as if wet. They probably were.
    “ Carly! You’re the smartest girl I
know!” I told her, truthfully. “You are the last person I would say
was a plastic doll. First would obviously be Karen and Kevin!” I
said. Then I found a joke I could say. “Kevin would be Barbie and
Karen, Ken! It’s a perfect match!”
    Carly choked out a laugh. She wiped her nose
and dried her eyes using her waterpower. “Now let’s do what we were
here for! She said in a gravelly voice. I smiled at her and told
her the plan.
    She smiled.

    I was chilling out in my bedroom making force
fields hold my textbooks open.
    I was still very serious about this whole
studying thing. So far I had managed to push my grades up to a
75.
    If I managed to increase my grade by three
percent, I wouldn’t have to go to summer school! No textbooks
stopping me from freedom and fun times.
    I couldn’t concentrate anymore, because the
visions of enjoying some rocky road were just too
overwhelming.
    My imagination took place and soon I was
floating in a pool of rocky road. I sighed and closed my eyes. My
sister put a sad stop to my beautiful vision.
    “ Jake!” She said, poking her head
inside my room. “Mom said it’s time for dinner!”
    “ OK!” I yelled back. “Just
coming!”
    I put the textbook down and got off my
bed.
    I was just going up the stairs, when my phone
beeped. I raced down and read it.
     
    Chat: Harrison WHITE, Carly MARTINSEN, Darryl
KLEIN
     
    Harrison: Hey Jake! What up? Meet in the tree
house after dinner? C ya there! :)
    Carly: Don’t be l8!
    Harrison: Yah!
     
    My phone beeped consistently as they continued
to remind me. Finally, Carly checked if I was still
there.
     
    Carly: Jake? U there?
    Me: I’m here.
    Me: *here
    Carly: Kay. C ya l8er!
    Harrison: Bye
    Me: Bye
     
    “ JAKE!” My father boomed. “HERE
NOW!!”
    “ Coming!” I replied.
     
    I raced
