Chapter Text
When Gulf first time used his power, it was.... well glamorous at least.
He was rather young for someone to show symptoms of awakening abilities. A few days before his eighteenth birthday, Gulf, like always, came back from school to almost empty house. His parents was still in work and sister probably hanging out with friends. Ju welcomed him in door, he mede himself dinner and take a short nap.
Nervous meowing wake him up not long after. He opened his eyes to his room in flames and smoke. After that everything happened really quick. He grabbed Ju and his phone, storming outside of burning house.
Soon firefighters were there, his angry and scared parents too and his sister threw herself on him with happy relief.
He didn't know but he was feeling this. Flames in his veins, burning in bones. He low key through that he could fire breath like some sort of dragon.
Gulf almost smile to image of this but Ju started meowing again and Grace looked at him in horror. She snapped cat from Gulf before he could burn him. Few seconds later he was standing on street in flames and it wasn't funny anymore.
Why would he even though that?Gulf was terrified then, so was everyone else.
He said nothing when, they were taking him to special school just few hours later. He was happy even. And scared. And sad also, very sad actually. Do someone can be happy and sad in the same time? But he preferred to leave his family than hurt them more than he already did.
Grace was crying. A lot. His father hugged her but Gulf known that he was in tears even more. Only his mother was standing there with straight face but pain in her eyes was bigger than Gulf even imagined.
He couldn't hug them or kiss goodbye, so he took his small bag and get to the back of big van with few dudes with covered faces. He would say he didn't liked them if anyone asked him.
Nobody did.

There was a lot of thing in word they still didn't discovered but they already wanted something more. People with big money and even bigger curiosity. After years of research they finally opened the portal to parallel reality.
Or so they thought. But... Nothing really happened. They couldn't go through it and nothing came from there. Respite theirs huge efforts the portal kept silent.
So they closed it.
Years later, when nobody remembered about it anymore, things started to happen.
There were kids, with powers coming from nowhere. Not always dangerous but terrifying, that for sure. It was pure chaos. Because what would you do if your kid started to lengthening his fins without control or growing plants on your carpet without reason? They didn't want even listen about extra strength or destructive abilities.
Did they try to remove them? That was the first what they wanted. Did they want to close them all in place far from others? Yes, sure. Did they know why some kids gain a weird powers? They know. But no one said a word.
For the almost two years world was sad and scary place. But after some time things start getting better. People learn to control powers. Not they own of course.
Actually they just learnt to control people with powers. They close them in places called "schools". They was calling them "misfits". They couldn't kill them so they tried to forget about them.
World was still in pieces and everyone just wanted to make it work.
