I first realized that I could do something out of the ordinary when I started high school. Lots of people say that a stressful time like puberty can trigger unusual abilities, but I was very surprised when a few of my friends started commenting on it. This is gonna sound so strange, but I feel that I have the ability to persuade and convince people to feel and do things that they wouldn't normally do. It normally only manifests when I'm angry or under a lot of stress, and I don't know - this might be normal for teenage triggered abilities.

One of the first times it happened was when I got on the bus and the driver asked me for proof of age. I told him that I was under 16 so I didn't need to pay an adult fare. He kept arguing with me about fare prices until I told him slowly but clearly that "he was going to stop arguing with me and let me onto the bus." He went all quiet and I was really scared so I just got on the bus and sat down. Luckily there was only a couple of people there, and they all looked quite surprised as well.

I try to avoid using it, and I would never use it on one of my friends. I've told teachers that "they are not going to give me detention and they will let me go" but I resent using it ‘cos its dishonest and I don't feel its morally right. I don't want to give it up, but I feel I always need to be careful in case I tell someone to do something that I later regret.
