I spent the rest of the night crying about what happened, my mom had called and talked to Adrian explaining my secret mystery to him, but doesn't really implied he wasn't mad at me or we'll ever be the same, my brother was suddenly scared of me, when we meet at the kitchen later that night to get something to drink he ran back to his room immediately our eyes met.
I became a total outcast in the house, my dad wasn't left out in shunning, I sobbed silently until I finally fall asleep and the second day I didn't want to get out of bed, my mom must have been so worried when I refused to set out for the day, she came in to see me in bed and I could hear her heave sadly she came to sit next to me though awake, my back was turned her.
"Natalie" she called but I was completely still.
"I know you are awake" She said and sighed again.
"Look....I know you didn't do that on purpose Natalie, I'm sure it was an accident and ev

"How's she? Mrs Smith asked immediately I came out of Ashley's room after calming her down, she had told me she knew that would happen, she cried that she wasn't willing to lose anyone again, though she wouldn't stop weeping, I managed to calm her down and put her to bed."She'll be fine right now, she just needs some rest" I said and Mrs Smith sighed in relief. "That's a relief" Mrs Smith said going back to the sitting room, even if she was trying hard to hide it, she was radiating fear, and not just her, Adrian too, my senses had been picking on people's emotions and feelings for few days past, I thought as I sat next to Mrs Smith."Everything will be fine Mrs Smith" I assured and she smiled, opposite to where I sat was Adrian who was absentmindedly rolling a ball in his hand. "Adrian!" I called and he looked up at me, his eyes full sadness, deep enough to drown me, I beckoned my head towards his room and he stood and l

"Oh Mrs Smith" My brother called out, after peeping through the door hole, he opened and let Mrs Smith in, she seem so destabilized, confused and sad, she sighed in relief as her eyes fell on Adrian and Ashley, she moved to them and hug them tightly, "Mom...what's wrong?" Ashley asked expression grim and frightened, but I already knew"Can I talk to you for a minute please?" Mrs Smith requested facing my mom and dad."Yes of course...Natalie why don't you take Adrian and Ashley to your room for a while?" My mom asked and I nodded beckoning for them to follow me."What's going on?" Ashley asked Adrian immediately he closed the door behind him."They raided your house last night" I answered facing Adrian who seem just as clueless about the whole situation. "What!?" Adrian asked almost immediately with Ashley."Your house was raided last night and your mom met everyth

Thomas another member of the gang had asked when he was about to get out, Larry sighed." The boss had enough weapon technology I have no idea why he is interested in messing with the NSA" Larry had given an exasperated answer."NSA? I thought the boss is avoiding messing with them" Thomas had said in surprise."That's what I thought too, but he just seem really interested in the new weapon the NSA is to be supplied soon, created by someone named Tony Anderson, he said he won't steal it, he just need the technology so he could create one himself, and you know NSA, the way they work, once their job's done, they clear off the trail, they kill Tony Anderson im

"You actually want me to believe all this you are telling me?" Mr Smith asked with a snicker after explaining my ability to him."I know it's hard to believe not only for you, but for anyone, but you have to believe me, I have the details of everything that happened because I read their minds when they came around" I said but his thoughts was still on his point, he thinks I'm insane."Mr Smith I know you don't believe me but I'm not insane" I said pissed off already, how on earth will Adrian get outta there when is father is not willing to believe me I subconsciously asked myself."I never said that" Mr Smith defended with an arched brow."Yes, you didn't but that's was actually your thought" I quipped and he laughed, the man is really getting on my nerves."That weapon, I think it's best for you to give it to your partner to take it to the headquarters for you" I said and he rai

My legs were dying as I paddled so hard to meet up with the cars at the other road while I took to the pedestrian side of it, I saw the gangs vehicle diverted, oh no I thought,I was sure Mr Smith had no idea the car carrying Adrian had taken another route, I have to contact Mr Smith I thought but Goodness I don't have his contact, though my phone was with me, then I saw the car being pulling over, they were at a broken bridge which was adjacent to the seaport. Damn it, they want to flee, I dropped down quietly from the bike limped weakly towards the wall opposite the car, I saw Peter trying to find a place to take a leak bingo, I thought to myself, as I sneaked behind him, immediately he turned I had my hand on his forehead, forcing myself to concentrate, I ignored the rage welling because I didn't want him shouting, I find myself sharing the pleasure I took in all my memories with Adrian, he was at ease, I sneak into his mind strolling through his memories until I

"Please don't do this" my mom pleaded to me after Mr Smith came to pay her a visit the second day."Please" she added and tears filled my eyes, I hugged her to let her know that. I was doing it for her."I know you're scared mom, thinking you can't cope without having me around, but I can't be satisfied knowing Adrian died painfully and without justice, you had always wanted me to pick a path mom, this is the path I chose" I said facing her, she was teary too, and her thoughts was chaotic though she didn't argue the fact that I was meant for this."Very well then" she said picking the pen."Mom!" my brother called in protest and obviously shocked knowing my mom's next action."This is what she wants, I'm granting you your wish then, be safe" she completed signing the papers."Thanks mom" I said hugging her again."But what about h

"Hey" I heard Alfred's voice, I couldn't have mistaken that, he was actually the person bending over to me as I slowly open my eyes, so that implies...I am still alive. That's a relief, Mr Smith will be so disappointed to think I'm dead."Hey...you're awake" Alfred asked and I nodded slowly and painfully."How long have I been out?" I drawled."Two days" Andy replied making herself noticeable at the corner she stood staring worriedly at me."That long? damn, I've missed pretty much of things. Classes, training, oh hell-"I found you very unbelievable, you've been lying down for two days and the first thing you worry about is classes?!" Nicholas exclaimed in disbelief before scoffing, leaving me embarrassed he's right, I've missed Mr Smith call for the day before, we are always communicating so I could inform him of my progress.

"Hey" I greeted as I sauntered into my room and my roommates all shoot to their feet immediately."Where on earth have you been?" Andy literally yelled."I'm sorry" I apologized timidly."Well...I think you owe us all an explanation" Emily started with her face narrowed at me in question."We were worried sick about you" Andy added, her voice lace with concern."Guys...I'm fine, I just had take care something" I briefed."Well...how's your wound? I heard Nicholas whoop the ass outta ya" Emily mocked and I batted my lashes at her feeling irritated."Emily! That's painful" Andy reprimanded her with a frown on her face."I'm fine...how's Tina?"

"Come on guys" I said trying to persuade Andy and Alfred to talk to me since they refuse to say anything ever since the post was decided."You screwed up" Andy snapped harshly."I'm sorry. I just think it's for the best, he's better than us-"Don't you get it. You just made him a gamma, our team leader, he has authority over us. He's in control now and you just gave him your life Ari, like that wasn't enough. If anything happen to you...we don't know what we'll do" Andy explained despondently making me feel warm from the inside, she was very sincere."I'll be careful" I promised."I'm sorry" I said with my hand on her shoulder."It's okay" she said finally and I hugged her."Alfred" I called immediately I released Andy."Come here you" he said and I hug him, together with Andy."AAAA" He said taking a selfie of

"Where were you?" Andy asked as I came strolling down from the control building."Just...out to see someone" I replied stuttering a little."Really? I don't like the tone of that" She asked narrowing her face at me in suspicion."Trust me everything is fine" I assured reading her thoughts, she thought something was wrong. Not anyone can come to the control building."Are you sure?" She pressed."Trust me I'm cool" I said going along with her."Hey" someone called behind us indignantly and we both look back."Nich-"Was it you?" He snarled cutting me short."What?" I asked cluelessly not too sure of what he meant."This" he said showing his bandaged hand, I was quiet, I couldn't tell him I helped him treat his wounds."I wonder if you're stupid or just clueless" He e

"I have nothing to do with what was stolen" I declared though many believed me. They still find it very hard to accept it."Andy....did you see her take it?" Mrs Georgia asked but Andy stood looking at me. She was certain she saw me but, she wasn't completely sure."Andy" Mrs Georgia called some of softly after seeing how quiet she was."I...I don't know, I can't remember" She finally answered looking at my sombre expression."Alfred" Mrs Georgia called out to Alfred."I didn't" he declared without doubt. He had a memory of seeing me though, but he just couldn't bring himself to tell them he saw me."But you both agreed you saw her closing her locker after putting some files inside. Which was found out to be exactly what we we're looking for?" Mrs Georgia asked staring at them suspiciously."I said books...not files" Alfred rephrase

"I'm so exited about tomorrow" I said to Andy who was busy with her nails."You know what! There's so much you don't know about climbing Ariana" She voiced checking out her nails"What's there to know about? Its just climbing! "I shrugged trying to get her to explain what she meant."No...it's not just climbing, all team is ready to do anything to get that flag and that includes eliminating anyone who try stopping them" She explained while I still gave a nonchalant look because I would do anything as well."Why would they do that?" I asked not too certain what the term 'eliminate' implies."Ariana... don't mess with anybody tomorrow. Especially not the Neutrons" She advised earnestly."But...why?" I asked but she just kept quiet, from her thoughts I could sense she was deeply hurt, she had lost her friend in mountain climbing last year, they all claim she

"You could actually lose your badge for that" I reminded her really glad I've gone through the rules, the girl retracted at once."Jane...Kelly, go catch a seat" Alveera instructed and they did as told after throwing some murderous stares at me. Then I actually realised Alveera was my team leader, she left after ensuring we were in order and moved to the other gammas who was seated in the front.I didn't pay much attention to the whole presentation thing. I wanted to get started, and I knew I have when Lady Georgia call on me and Alfred, she led us to the gymnasium and start addressing us."I'm lady Georgia and I'm in charge of making you fit enough to be in Level two, we will have two weeks preparatory training before you finally start your lesson with your mates, first I have to know what you're good at, your basics, and your weaknesses but I can't without you having a training mate, this" she said gesturing over

"Hi" I greeted taking my food next to Andy after taking my share in the cafeteria, one upsetting thing was, she was completely ignoring me, she didn't mean to though, she was afraid she will be picked on because none of the level 2 students like me, they were upset they work their way to level two but I came from nowhere without any training whatsoever to join them, and they all promise to put me where I belong; though I don't know what that meant.I ate my food in silence afterward and when I was done, I felt I needed to use the restroom, I was on my way when I saw two boys beating Alfred in front of the male restroom while other students just passed by not minding the scene at all, I felt my rage boiling me up, my breathing become erratic as anger overwhelmed me, so I tired to calm myself and the next moment I send the waste bin flying at one of the guys face, before the other could react I gave him a punch in the face, they were too stunned to do anything,

After having dinner with them and chatting with Ashley about her new school till she fell asleep, I left for my room, took out my old phone under a hidden box at the entrance which was covered with foot rug, it was a box imbedded in the floor, I dialled my mom's number and she picked at once, as if expecting my call, I told her about my progress and she was very happy with it, she congratulated me and wish me good luck, then I called my brother, sure that guy always had something to talk about, I didn't know how the time fly so fast, I had to sleep around 11.30
