Upon hearing Vozhak's word, Jade was dumbfounded. He could make snow ? She first thought that he was making fun of them both, but one look at his face told her that it was not the case. He was probably very embarassed and ashamed right now. She paused for a moment, wondering what to do. Then, she decided that, to ease both of them, she would show her ability too. She looked at them both, and said :
"It's alright Vozhak. I have something to show you two"
She grabbed her phone, and downloaded an english-russian basic textbook, then concentrated while reading it. A few seconds later, she felt the same common dizziness, sat down on the floor of the infirmary, and started talking russian.

Vozhak's face was painted with awe as Jade spoke Russian flawlessly. "You don't even have an accent," he said back to her in his native toungue. Feeling that he had to prove thaty he was not lying to the girls, he preformed his ability. He cupped his felt hand then put his right over it. After a few seconds and his hands becoming cold, he removed his right hand to revieal a handful of snow in his palm.
Kire gasped when Vozhak unvailed the snow in his hand. She grabbed a small bit of it to determine if it was real or fake. "It's real," she breathed. "I have an ability too, but I'm not sure how to show it. Vozhak looked at her with curiosity, "So... We all have ability?"

For the first time since she discovered her abilities, Jade had found people with who she could share it, people who would understand her, and her worries. She beamed at Kise and Vozhak, and repeated "We all have an ability !" , taking a bit of snow in her hands and watching it melt. After a while, however, she remembered where they were. "Ah ! Maybe we shouldn't stay here ? We would have no explanation if the nurse came back... Plus we don't want any staff, or teachers knowing about this" she said pointing at the melting snow it her hand. "It could be dangerous"

Vozha and Kire agreed with Jade. Kire lead the others out of the nurses office just as the bell for lunch to end. "Well, I guess we should go off to our classes," she said as she turned to her new friends. "Yes, we should." Vozhak replied. Kire waved goodbye as she hurried off to her next class. Before Jade could get out of Vozhak's reach, he lightly grabbed her shoulder and stepped infront of her.
" Mr.Lanton. You have him next, yes?"
"Yes, why?" Jade replied with a slightly worried tone.
"I believe he knows about existance of abilities such as ours, I don't know what he will do with information, but I let him know about my ability to make snow and ice. I would be careful around him." Vozhak gave the small girl a hopeful smile after he finished his warning. He waved goodbye as he walked to make his next class.

EDIT : wall of text warning !
When heading to her next class, Jade was extremely worried. The teacher knew about abilities ? Something told her this was really bad news. She hesitated a lot before going in the class, and paced for a while in front of the door, as her fellow students eyed her with curiosity. When she finally entered, the only free desks available were on the front row. She sat down next to the blonde guy that voiced his discontent during French class, wiping her sweaty palms on her dark gray dress. The teacher was already there. He looked thirty-ish and smelled of cold tobacco. He started talking, but she was too nervous to register what he was saying. Something about stinkbombs or something. The other students laughed a lot, but Vozhak's word kept echoing in her head. "I would be careful around him. She snapped out of her train of thought as students began rustling in their backpacks to search for a sheet of paper. A bit panicked, she took one out herself, and glanced at Mr Lanton. On the whiteboard were written a few words : Name, Parent's Job, Aspirations, Hobbies, Special abilities. She understood what was asked to her, and started writing :
Name : Jade Merryl
Mother's job : Town Planner
Father's job : Car Salesman
Aspirations : Marine Biologist
Hobbies : Cooking, singing
Special abilities : None
Daniel had his third class of the day. During lunchtime, he had managed to get a hold of Kise's next teacher. He'd tell her she had to come see him after class. All that was left was to find the last piece of the puzzle. The girl that had been scared of his face this morning came in the room, looking down and walking as if the whole world had come to get her. She sat in the front row, deliberately trying to avoid his gaze "Damn, am I really THAT scary ?", he thought. While making, for the third time now the same speech of introduction, he concluded her behaviour was clearly odd. She had not listened to any word he said (that in itself was not that uncommon, since half the last row was failing miserably to conceal their constant texting), and kept looking at him while she thought he didn't notice. Furthermore, she looked shaky and scared, like a mouse in a cat's paws. Even during the quizz, she was still tense. He wondered if she was this way because she had not managed to get any friend yet. He remembered she was cheering herself up early this morning.
At the end of the class, he asked to talk to her. As he did so, he could clearly see her get even more tense and nervous. "Ahah... so you really are scared of me .." he said, rubbing the back of his head. He sighed. "Look, I don't really know what's going on, but you're gonna be okay. It's okay to be nervous on the first day. Don't worry, you'll make some friends soon, and everything will be better" he smiled, patting her head paternally.
Jade was shocked at what he said. He thought she was nervous because it was the first day of class ? He suddenly seemed much less scary. Without even thinking, she blurted out.
"Ihaveaspecialability. Icanunderstandthingswithoutlearningthem."
Daniel was stunned. He had not expected this. He stood speechless for a moment, thinking. If that's what she was worried about, then why had she been tense even upon entering his class ?
- Then why were you so scared when you came into my class ?
- Vozhak
- You know him ? And his special ability too ?
- Since today, yes.
- What about anyone else ?
- What are you talking about ?
- Like... a girl named Kise ? Ah, I can see on your face you know her too...
Jade stayed mute, suddenly trusting him less. Daniel leaned on his desk, deep in thought.
- Do you believe in fate ? he suddenly said. Because I do... I have divinatory dreams. Precognition you could call it. Always cryptic, but nearly always true. Ah, but it's running late... You should head to your next class. Come see me after class. With Kise and Vozhak. We"ll talk more then...
Jade headed to her next class, her thought twirling in her head. "I have divinatory dreams. Precognition you could call it. Always cryptic, but nearly always true"... Was he saying the truth ?
it's 3AM here, I guess I'll go to sleep soon =P

(wow we are on completly different time zones o-o it's just now 8pm here, why dont you go to bed xD it sucks when you don't get sleep)
The whole time during the last class of the day Vozhak was ready to go home. He had been a mindless zombie since he let two other students know about his ability. He had been shunned by his town and country as a whole and worse, his own father. He was very thankful that his last class was algebra, something he was good at, and the fact that this teacher had her room very cold to soothe her hot flashes. Vozhak viewed this class as a safehaven, he was able to stay cool, he knew the subject well so he wasn't required to pay attention, and math was a universal language so he didn't have to ask the teacher to dumb it down for him.
Vozhak had finished his paper early and decided to flip it over and sketch a design for his next scuplture. He drew the circles and linds to base create his guide lines for the head of a rat. He filled the lines and circles in with a circular eye, short and neat fur, and the oddly detailed nose. The rat looked frindly but he had sketched a large sword into its mouth. When it was time to turn the paper in, Vozhak quickly snapped a picture of his drawing then passed the paper up to the next student so they could turn it in.
The much awaited final bell rung and everybody scrambled for the door. Vozhak was about to follow them but the teacher's voice rung out, " Uhm, Mr.Hobbs! Mr.Lanton would like to see you in his classroom before you go!" Vozhak sighed in defeat; he had hoped that the inquisitive teacher had forgotten all about the meeting. But one thing did comfort him, according to Mr. Lanton he won't be alone.
During her last period, Kire had spent the time trying to remember the words to her favorite song. She had listened to it many times and knew the melody but couldn't for the life of her remember the verses, something about to hell and back and charge and attack. She gave up half way through the snore worthy lesson in Spanish. When the final bell rung she had nearly jumped out of her seat to rush to the door, but the annoying nasely voice of her ageing Spanish teacher rung out, "Kire, Mr.Lanton would like to see you in his classroom!" Damn it.

As Jade entered room B213 after her class, Mr Lanton was leaning outise the window, smoking. She stood there awkwardly for a bit fidgeting, her eyes darting around. She apparently was the first one here. Without turning to look at her, Daniel expelled smoke outside, and said : "I wondered if you'd come. I'm pretty sure I spooked you bad earlier...". Jade looked down, embarassed, and asked :
-Am I the only one coming ?
- As you might have guessed, no. Vozhak and Kire were also asked to come. Whether or not they actually will come is a wonder though.
As if they had heard what he said, the door opened again, Kire and Vozhak walked in, a look of distrust on their face. "They are wary. Good." Daniel thought before extinguishing is cigarette and closing the window.
"Well, now that all the protagonists are in place, shall we begin ? I asked you to come to give you a warning. I'll tell you a story, and you would be nice enough to let me finish before asking the questions you want to ask. Look at the book on the table." The students approached the book. It was a yearbook, year 1996. On the page open were shots of a freshman class.
"What is interesting in this yearbook is the name without a photo. Can you see it ?Aaron Anderson. This was asked by his parents, in case he ever came home. Because you see, Aaron disappeared during Freshman year. He was my friend, and my underclassman.
During my own freshman years, I suffered from severe insomnia. Recurring dreams, with various animated things or animals, and nothing seemed to be able to help. It took me month to understand that each of these dreams could be interpreted, and that they nearly always, came true... Sure, the quarterback turned to a bull, and the English teacher to a frying pan -he was named cook-, but it all happened. Once I understood this, the dreams became less common. Still, I isolated myself, out of fear of anyone discovering it.
Then, during my second year of highschool, the dreams came back again. I kept dreaming about a chameleon, doing various things around the school. However, each time I tried to go to the place of my dreams, there would be noone. That is until I saw Aaron disappear. I should have known, he was, after all, a chameleon. For the first time since I discovered my ability, I had a friend I could share my worries with. Aaron never worried about anything. We started using our abilities to play pranks, or turn the tides of the football match when it suited us. Well, he did, mostly, because I have nearly no control over mine. We understood that his ability was not to turn invisible, but to be completely out of reach, like in another dimension. After a few weeks however, my dreams came back. Aaron the chameleon of my dreams kept disappearing. I grew worried and asked him to stop using his ability for a while. He refused, telling me I was jealous. To say the truth, I was.
Then, some times later, he vanished. I have never seen him since. I think he got stuck on the other side, and eventually died.
What is to remember about this story is that every ability has a downside. The stronger the ability, the bigger the downside. Before using your ability in any way, you must know yours." Daniel stopped talking, and the whole room grew silent.

Vozhak and Kire were silent after Mr.Lanton's story. Vozhak was a little frightened but since he already knew his ability's limitation, he didn't worry over it too much. On the other hand, Kire was very scared. Her power was very strong and she didn't know how far it could go. She did know one downside, her eyes would burn; but that was just about it. Wanting to break the tension, Kire begain to ask about how they find the repercussions of their power, but instead of words a loud hiccup came out. The loud and sudden noice made Vozhak jump and shoot Kire a confused look. Kire imediantly covered her mouth and choked out a muffeled sorry.
After thinking for a moment in the deafeningly silent room, Vozhak asked, "Is there ever possability of not having these powers?"

Daniel sighed at this question. He had expected it. Anyone would prefer to be normal again, especially when you don't know how to deactivate your ability. "I have yet to find one. I guess there may be the possibility of someone with the ability to negate others' but... I don't know anyone like that." He paced for a bit, before asking them "Does any of you know their ability's limitation ?"

Vozhak sighed at the teacher's answer. He despratly longed for the feeling of "normal" again. He wanted to go back to his home town and be accepted, even though normalcy wouldn't get him back to Rayzan'. As soon as Mr.Lanton finished his question, Vozhak spoke up in a melancholic tone, "My ability makes me over heat easily, I only comfortable in sub zero tempurtures, and my skin is freezing to others." Half way through his sentance, Vozhak had gotten out of his chair and sat on the ground to stretch his aching legs.
"I have no idea what the limitation of mine is, I've only experianced it twice. But I do know when I'm controling people, my eyes feel like their on fire." Kire said after gaining controll over her hiccups.
