"So, this government organization you are a part of is recruiting strays from bar fights? Interesting concept." Craig pondered the offer for a brief moment.
It's like you have anything else to do, right? At least here you might be able to find your niche.
"Okay. I'm in. I guess I'll have to go gather my stuff at some point as well. But for now, I can wait for the others to get back. Just one question, can I borrow your toothbrush?" Craig says smirking.

"Yes, I'm aware of what happened, though you will have to explain why." William says to Jason, disprovingly. "I'm also aware that you had any number of cops in your way. Care to explain how it is you put Alice in serious harms way because you didn't want a surgery?" To make sure they can't leave, William locks the truck as they drive. "And, perhaps, you should let us know if this is going to happen again."

*body remains still as it recovers from its impact at high speed into the wall. unknowing to anyone in the room, her mind is currently trapped in fighting the flames still about her. nothing more, nothing less.

Alice is quiet for a moment as she thinks over what Jason had said. Finally, she says "That reminds me of what Ashley said. That the bugs inside her over-ride her control, even though she is always aware of what she's doing."
When Will enters the van, Alice jumps a bit startled and mumbles "Sorry Will." and falls quiet as they start to drive back to the beach house.

"And Alice, you could have called someone." William says. "Told where you were going and why. It would have saved a lot of trouble."
After letting them stew for a moment, William says "OK, so, what surgery?"

" sort of like that Alice, but mine is caused by some chemical imbalance that I developed after the accident." Jason explained. " My body just eats up the adrenaline, which causes more to pump and, well, you saw the result." He looked at Will before answering," I only defended myself when they started to try to force me to have a biomechanical spinal reconstruction. Some doctor signed off on it, but I didn't and I'm not doing it even if it means I'm stuck in that chair the rest of my life. and I never used my powers on the security guards until they drew their weapons and threatened to restrain me. I made sure I didn't give them a full blast, just enough to make them think twice."

" Bor... no, you can't borrow my... that's gross!" Kerry nearly sprayed Coke acrossed the room. " All that kind of stuff is upstairs in the storage room. Get your own from there."
Trevor came into the room. " Hey guys, did I miss anything?"
"Where were you?" Kerry asked.
"Don't ask." He replied, getting a Pepsi and popping the tab. " I tried to take Sierra to pick up her things. Instead she duplicates my powers, jumps clear of me and ends up knocking herself senseless face first into a building. She's upstairs resting now." He looked at Craig. " So, you're hanging around too? Two out of three's not bad."

Alice is quiet before hesitantly saying "Well, if I was able to calm Ashley down, would it be possible for me to do the same with you if it was necessary with my telepathy?"
To Will she says "There's something else. On my way to the hospital, I kept having this flash, like a vision or something showing me that we'd have to fight off security to get out of the hospital and then we did." Alice looks worried wondering what it means.

"Visions are useful. Start keeping track of them." William says, as he makes for the house. "As for the spine stunt, well, it means the hospital is less safe. Which means we will need to be far more judicious from now on. No stunts."

"Oh, ok." Alice seems surprised by the brief answer and falls quiet as they head back to the beach house"

"Keeping track of them will halp you to tell what are fancy and what are actual clairvoyant visions." William says. "Which will be to everyone's benefit. Also, don't try to change them, as it will only end in it happening anyways."

" Stunt? " Jason replied, sounding hurt. " Will, they wanted to cut me open and stick a machine inside me. You think that would be a good idea?"

Teenagers William thinks to himself, sighing. "I mean in the future? If we can't trust our medicare, we can't be reckless and overburden your brother."

*thrashes a little on the bed. a faint whimper escaping the lips, then she goes still again. the mind remains where it is, somewhat trapped for now in the nightmare of memories

Jason grumbled something unintelligible and sat back with folded arms as they drove.
