Magical beginnings

Not a partcualry good piece but i was bored and wanted to write something so i did

Its not something people would notice, i keep it on the low down. Undercover , undiscovered and unrecognized. To everyone i just seem like a normal person with a few quirks and odd habits, But secretly i am very different, not that you would even belive me if i told you.

Noone is the same and everyone is indeed and indavdual, but when i say different im talking in a different sense, the kinda sense you read of in story books for little children. But the thing is its reality for me , and not in the way its imagination i mean its reality because its really happening , there , tangible. Well not tangible really, i cant hold it in my hands but its evident and real. You ever read things like harry potter where little boys and girls run around with wands and shout magical words, and make magical words happen. Well im talking about that kinda different, the differnt in teh sense that there is power brimming inside me , sparkign at the edges and bursting out my finger tips. No  i dont use a wand if your wondering, real magic isnt like that, it dosent even need words you just need to think. You proberly think im crazy, mabye i am but things have happened around me that would convince me otherwise, and these are things that other indavduals have witnessed.

When i was younger if i got angry, it would rain. Could be coincidence i suppose but every time , i would feel this burning red feeling thru my arms , and it was almost like my hands would glow bright red. Ive been told before that i have an odd effect on people but never really considered it to be linked with my odd ablities. Now your all sitting there thinking your not magic ive met you. You walk like everyone else, talk like everyone else and you are , well and truly the same as everyone else.

I cant prove otherwise, because as i said i keep it on the low down, its not something you want people knowing that you walk around with the power to destroy the whole world if you so much as think it gone. Ive never tried that i dont kno if i can, but its a scary thought, not knowing what i can do because im afraid to play around with my power.

i can set things alight with my mind, move things, only when people arent so obviously looking tho. Dosent matter if they see them move, just aslong as they dont kno im the one doing it. Ever stand in teh middle of a field on a sunny day and feel a sudden breeze and not really have an explanation for it?. Well next time turn around i might be near you , i have an odd effect on the weather.

My name is James, i was brought up in a small town miles away from anywhere. My parents where very kind and loving people, and i might have killed them. Now ive scared you by telling you the reality of the power. I got in trouble, and i wanted to get out, they where shouting at me and i was sitting in a chair, a big red arm chair in our cosy living room. My eyes transfixed on teh playful flames of the oak fireplace. Id blocked out my parents long ago and let there words flow straight into me. Feeling the energy build, feelign the anger surging thru me. And then something happend it was lik ei was blind for a minute my vision went white and yellow shots of light surged from my hands and then the fire place exploded frowing flames everywhere. The house was no more in a couple of hours. My parents lay about the floor charred and turned black, but i hadnt moved from that armchair , i was untouched as was it, not a scratch.

Now explain to me... if im not magic, what really happend that day. What are these hands really capable of?

Not that good? I beg to defer. I really liked it. I personally love the musings of a character, especially when magic is involved. Quick question though, well it be continued? If it is, I'd love to read more! Just a helpful hint, you might want to edit the grammar and such eventually. It's still readable (and very good I might add), but it always helps the reader if it's clean-cut.

PS-If you have issues with spelling, like me, spell check is a marvelous invention. I don't think I could live without it. ;) hehe!

I thought it was good.. Set up the character and his musings and created enough interest in his powers to want us to find out more.... Of course, we all know what boys do with their hands... lol
