The other kind by Cherra Miller (snow like ashes series txt) 📖

His breath was even but I could read his fear . I did not know what had shaken him so badly but it must have been horrible because nothing ever scares him. he was always alert and ready always so calm even in the worst of situations that was why he was the leader. So at this moment I could not stop the fear that overwhelmed me. What on earth had happend to him that could possibly make him this fearful.I looked at our little group that consist of six people , Meadow

, Lauri

, Reamus

, James

, me



and Kaleb

. The first four were seven, five five, and twelve. In other words small children. Those of who needed protection. I couldent take any more I would get answers whether he liked it or not.

I so rarely used my gift so it felt odd using it now. Why could'nt he just tell me? while I dug through the contents mind i encontered a problem every time I got to the time span between when he left and when he came back it always got dark and fuzzy. "No Wind" I looked at Kaleb in surprise I didn't know he had realized what I was doing but I knew he would be mad so I quickley covred. 'But I'm not doing any thing" I lied." I can see it on your face" he answerd angrily . But how I thought I was sure that my face was blank."Thats exactly it" he said "your face onley gets blank when your reading, I know you were not having a vision because if you were I would have seen it". I had completly and totaly had forgoten his gift focasing on mine in instead. " Sorry " I muttered. " Don't be " these words were a whisper, he stroked my face.

Closing my eyes in response to his touch I leaned into to his side laying my head on his shoulder and began singing to myself. I had been told by many people that I had a beatiful voice but paid it no mind becuase I would sing anyways even if I had a horrible voice. I had began singing when I was little living in the undergrounds of Washington D.C with my once to be care giver Tom that was before he died , before i set off on my own in order to find my family... before I knew of our conspiracy theory. In the midst of these thoughts I soon found myself drifting into silence, then sleep.


chapter 2

I awoke to silence and comfort unsure were I was or what was going on I took a deep breath and opened my eyes."good morning" his voice breathed into my hair. ."mmmmmmm" was my brillent response. Twisted with mine he kissed my hair ." where are we " I asked taking in my surroundings. I was on top of a small soft bed with with sheets , the walls were a peach, the curtians were a deep red , the carpet. We could onley be in one place. A hotel." The Ramada" kaleb answered,"I brought us here last night while you were sleeping". While I so rarley used my gift Kaleb always used His. He was our sorce of tranportation, bringing us where eveer it fit our needs. While I knew that he could bring us anywhere on earth I often wonderd if his powers ranged out in to space.


While pondering this Kaleb climbed out of bed while I stayeed there thinking thats when a thought came to me what about the children? me and Kaleb knew the truth they showed signs of their gifts everyday. this was why were on the run , because we had these gifts that made us powerful useful ... the most wanted weapon in the universe. but it was not just our six we were not the onley of our kind in this earth. there where millons of us hiding from our earths govorment, we were not normal people we were our our own race of people. Hybrids we were mixed with the worlds most incredeble monsters. While we were sure of some of our roots others were a mystery. in all truth we were not test tube babies. Like all in our kind we started off as normal babies meant to be born into reaguler people, that was before science took it's coarse. They would put all kinds of D.N.A in us those of which consists of the most incredible monsters, as said before." Wind" Kaleb called. "What "? I replied relizing that I'd been laying in bed thinking about who knows what. "Get ready we have to go", " kay " . I streached arching my back upward , then swung my feet to the side of the bed and jumped off landing softley on the wood panled floor.


Chapter3


We all stood inside one room in the Ramada praying that they did not have camaras.Then it happend I blinked and when i opened my eyes we where in front of arizonas welcome sign
the hand to left of me fell . I turned to a smiling James suddenly his eyes were focased on the sign, intent determined .that's when a large dust covered rock hit he sign i stared at James in surprise.
