Black spiral notebook

[Xander Green]

A tattered black spiral notebook, one Xander carries with him everywhere. It holds excerpts from stories he may be working on, random thoughts and also works as a journal. Getting the notebook from him is completely impossible. Especially taking into account he doesn't sleep. He's strange individual, as his former and current room mates will agree to. Some have tried getting the notebook from him just out of curiosity only to be attacked by an unseen force. The spirit referred to as Nate looks out for Xander and the notebook. Xander started this as soon as he came to Hammel.

DAY ONE

So here I am inside this strange school for meta-humans. Although most prefer the term freak and I can't help but think it's pretty accurate at times. I mean how else do you describe someone who is haunted and can't get ghosts to leave him alone? I used to think I just had a lot of imaginary friends when I was little but now I'm not so sure. I mean sure the doctors said that's not possible but they could be wrong. I mean doctors aren't right 100% of the time. And even if they are fre metas themselves that doesn't mean they know everything about every ability.

My parents have completely disowned me, not wanting a freak for a kid. I just hope Michelle is normal so she won't have to deal with that. Although she's got like 6 years or so before any possible powers could manifest. And to think this all started with Paul, Nate's jerk of a cousin. He's looking over my shoulder right now reading this and it's really annoying. And there he goes, throwing a tantrum. Well I gotta go and get moved in and whatever. See ya.

DAY 10

This officially sucks. My room mates hate me and this place is crazy haunted. I have spirits of all kinds following me around. And everytime Paul throws a tantrum the whole room is a mess. Gotta go, here he starts again.


DAY....whatever it's August that much I know

Been busy working on my ability so I've had no time to write. I haven't slept a full night in years and I'm beginning to wonder if it's going to make me go insane. I really hope not, but after all the stuff I've put up with it wouldn't surprise me. I've been checking around, even at the other meta schools and haven't found anyone with an ability like mine. I know being one of a kind is supposed to be a good thing....but when it's like this I don't think it is.

My room mates aren't speaking to me and my parents wouldn't let me say Happy Birthday to my sister, even though I could hear her crying in the background. It's bull, that's all there is to it. What? Like my meta cooties will transfer over the phone? I sent out a message though to all spirits to get one to bring Michelle a present from me. I should be getting a call in a few days from my pissed off parents.

Well, it's 3 AM so I'm going to try and get some sleep. Wish me luck!

CHRISTMAS 2009

So I'm guessing you've noticed the massive time jump. Well on the upside I'm not the victim of a horrible prank from someone with time control. However Paul got pissed and ripped out a bunch of pages. I just want to learn how to make spirits move on so I can get rid of him and maybe even help Nate move on. But I get the feeling I'd be lost without Nate.

So let's recap the last few years.....lame. My parents have officially disowned me. They don't answer my calls and then they actually changed their numbers. But Michelle managed to get a letter to me. I keep using spirits to send her messages and presents. She said aside from the spirits who like to visit her at night she hasn't noticed anything odd. But then again that's not odd to her anymore. I want to see her, but as a visitor. Not because she's a student here, that would break my heart.

My room mates keep pushing for me to change rooms and won't speak to me. They enjoy playing pranks which causes Nate to attack them. I mean sure not full on violent, but scares 'em enough. I used to try and stop him but I just don't care anymore.

For some reason the women here are all hot. I don't know if it's because they're Metas or just one of the greatest coincidences ever. I mean sure I flirt but my cold clammy skin makes even basic things like holding hands hard to do without them. But I gotta figure eventually I'll find someone who doesn't care. Maybe a chick with ice powers, that'd be useful. Alright, well I'm gonna try and sleep again. Here goes nothing.

October 2010

'Stupid Paul, he hid my journal on me. Let's see what's been goin on the last 6 months or so? Hmm, well I had a birthday so that was sweet. I actually have some people who are kind of friends. I do tend to stick to myself more. But with the encouragement of some of the teachers I'm starting to come out. Paul has gotten more complacent however he does still have his tantrums and mocks me, especially in the middle of class. Most teachers however are used to me yelling at someone who isn't there. Not to mention they know not to have me sit next to someone with power negation. Because if they do...well I fall asleep and it's beautiful. And so far that's the only way I've found to actually get some peaceful sleep. Pills and everything else just doesn't work...it's annoying.

Well my roomies got their way and I had to change rooms. I'm with a kid named Zac and someone else I haven't met yet. Zac doesn't like me, because he was using my room to store his clothes. He gave me attitude but Paul and Nate actually worked together and began throwing his clothes around. But of course I apologized and cleaned everything up, as usual. I've met a few women who caught my eye. Namely one girl named Ashleigh who I think might have a thing for me. I don't know for sure, so there ya go.

Oh, I also know something weird is going on. The spirits keep mentioning it to me but no one really seems to know anything so it could just be the spirits being weird. I hope they're wrong but I'll have to wait and see. Well, off to attempt to sleep again, night!
