[ WP ] Every person in the world develops a weird mutation/power the day they turn 16 . Everyone 's powers are always different , some more insignificant than others . You turn 16 , and watch as all your friends discover their newfound ability 's . That is , until you discover the severity of your own .

It is annoying having a June birthday. You see, when you turn 16 everyone gets a special ability, but being a June birthday means that I watch all of my friends and class mates getting their abilities and flaunting them while I am just sitting here, waiting for my sixteenth birthday. My best friend had his birthday in October, and he got the ability for him to write things without thinking about it. This may seem mundane but for the last 5 months he has been bragging to me how he can finish all of his homework while watching the TV. Each day, when we got in to school he would ask me if I had finished the homework that was set, and then every day he would tell me that he had watched the latest episode of whatever TV show happened to be big at that moment. 
 
 Well finally, I might be able to get back at him. Yes, it is all luck of the draw and I may get something stupid, but it could be awesome. Oh, and when I mean something stupid, I mean really stupid, for example I know someone who's ability is to make their neck elongate. I mean, it may be useful if he could have mad any part of his body longer, but his neck? The most he could do with it is look over fences slightly better, that is it. 
 
 I am told it is a weird feeling when you first discover my power. I look up at the clock. It is almost ten past nine. Sixteen years ago, at ten past nine, I was born. I was up in my room in my house. It is best not to be around anyone when you first discover it, just in case it is something bad. I sit in my chair, next to my bed, watching the second hand tick round, tick by tick. I close my eyes as I get close to the time. I can still hear the clock ticking in the background. 
 
 I count the ticks, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Suddenly I could feel something happening. Something was changing within me. I could feel something coming up through me. From my toes, like a wave, spreading up to my head. The wave stopped. I open my eyes and look around, and, nothing. Everything feels the same the same. My hands? No, nothing special about my hands, they were still my hands. Standing up, I try to think about my power and activate it. Pacing the floor I mentally check my body for any specialities. My feet are still normal. My legs completely normal. My entire body, normal. Everything was so normal. Other people said that they immediately activated their power when it was time. I looked around. Nothing was happening. It is silent. This is n't right, why is n't anything happening. My eyes then fell on to the clock. It was that moment I realised that it had stopped ticking.
