“There’s one question I think we should be asking,” said Lachlan. “Are Sam’s newfound superpowers a permanent fixture? If you wanted to, could you fly or time travel right now?”
“They’re not superpowers,” said Sam, “and I don’t think so. I don’t think it works like that.”
“Try it,” said Angelina.
Sam frowned as though in concentration for a few seconds, then shook his head.
“Nope,” he said.
“So what brought them on in the first place?” said Lachlan.
Sam shrugged. “How should I know?”
“Was it the danger that activated them?” said Angelina.
“No idea,” said Sam. “Angelina, do you still have our notebook? We should be writing some of these questions down.”
“Okay, but my handwriting is really bad,” said Angelina.
Angelina rifled around in her backpack for a minute before finding the notebook, then pulled it out, opened it, and begin scribbling notes.

The notebook was just a touch more worn out for having been in her backpack, smudged with glittery purple ink and something that looked like chocolate.
“What did you do to that notebook?” said Lachlan.
“I don’t mind,” said Sam. “It’s already got blood all over it, so a few sparkles is nothing.”
“Good point,” said Lachlan. “Remind me to buy you a new notebook when we get out of here.”
“Let’s stay focused,” said Sam. “We’re trying to narrow down our observation. So what have we observed about all of us?”
Angelina readied her pen again.
experiment notes & stuff:
questions:
1. why did Sam get superpowers?
2. a. what made the powers activate? was it the danger?
what have we observed about all of us?
