officers, they started to stop taking bribes from the drug lord, then he got mad and started taking them out” Jasper replied.
“So the Legion saved more lives than people give them credit for?” Tyler continued to ask.
“Oh sure, by helping the police clean up their act, this crime boss will lose power, soon they might go after him, cleaning out the rest of the dirt” Jasper said as if he were certain it would happen.
“Not completely,” Tyler murmured.
“What?” Jasper asked.
“There is a federal agent that is corrupted by his desire to create more warriors,” Tyler responded “I don’t know his name, but he takes genetic mutations and forces them into others, hopping that it doesn’t kill them and that it will give them power so that he can control them,”
“This fellow, is he tall and pale?” Jasper asked
“Yes,” Tyler practically screamed “Why do you ask?”
“He came by earlier, asking about you,” Jasper said “he wanted to know if I had seen Angel,”
“He said she was dangerous if kept alive,” Jasper continued “said that she was a criminal and that if I ever saw her to phone the police, he never mentioned you though, and I don’t blame him, you should be dead you know,”
“What do you mean I should be dead?” Tyler asked
“When I found you, only the girl was alive, you had a bullet in your chest, then flames encompassed you and you were alive again,” Jasper replied.
“I still don’t remember that,” Tyler said puzzled.
“Well any way you can stay here as long as you want,” Jasper offered “It’d be nice to have an extra hand around the farm, you look strong enough for it, and what do you say?”
“I think that would be nice,” Tyler answered, “I don’t have any were to go now anyways,”
“That’s the spirit,” Jasper sarcastically laughed.
“When do we start work?” Tyler asked.
“Next week when the snow clears away,” Jasper replied.
“You don’t mind if I explore a little do you?” Tyler asked.
“Not at all,” Jasper responded “just be careful in the forest, they might still be looking for you,”
With that Tyler headed for the door, before he made it out Jasper called him back.
“I thought you might like this,” Jasper said, in his hand he held a black leather jacket, “it was my son’s but he can’t use it anymore,”
With tears in his eyes Tyler thanked him, and then headed out the door. He walked off the porch and into the snow, as he looked around to the left he saw a barn, to the right a road, he walked into the barn and looked around, it was really messy. It was covered in tools, most of them were rusted, there was a pitchfork in the ceiling, and an axe in the side of the barn. Tyler started to straighten up, first he sorted all the tools, and then he found a file, one by one he started fixing up the tools till they looked good as new. This went on for a few hours till he was tired, he walked out the door and stuck his face in the snow, as his face touched the snow he instantly had a flash back, this is what he saw. A helicopter flying after him, he had Angel in his arms, he was practically going mach 1, the helicopters fired at him, and he fired back. Then a bullet hit him, and he went down. He remembered seeing a figure in red leather helping him get away. Then everything went black, Tyler woke up and where he had stuck his face in the snow was a hole about three feet deep, it had been burned into the ground. Jasper walked out and saw the hole.
“So what else can you do?” Jasper asked.
“I don’t know,” Tyler replied “but I think I should figure it out before I hurt someone on accident,”
“Sounds like a good idea,” Jasper said “If you want help doing it I’m here for you,”

“So why exactly do we have a bunch of kids locked up here?” General King asked.
“Well sir we found out that they have powers that we’ve been trying to create through genetic alterations” Private Green said.
“And have you found the source of this so called power?” the General asked again.
“No,” Private Green replied “but my men are working on it as we speak,”
“Instead of keeping them prisoner why not just trick them into working for us,” General King asked.
“We’ve tried that, the one called Chronis is telepathical and he reads our minds and tells the rest we’re lying,” Green said.
“Fine take a couple blood samples from each and then kill them,” King said “if they’re not with us they’re against us,”
“Yes sir,” Green saluted.
He took off for the cells, when he got there he ordered a pair of scientist to take for vials of blood from each of them. This wouldn’t kill them but it would make them weaker, giving them a less likely chance of escaping when they were taken to the execution place. They would normally be sedated but for some reason the only thing that worked was freezing them in ice. Yesterday when they had taken them down, they had used a drug that if used to more than once in 24 hours would kill them.
“All right, take samples of the strong one first,” Green commanded, “After that get the one who gives off sparks,”
“Yes sir,” the scientist responded.
“Sir, samples taken,” the first scientist replied, “We’ve taken samples from all of them except the telepathical one,”
“So take a sample,” Green snapped,
“Sir we can’t,” the scientist announced, “We would have to thaw him, otherwise this force field he’s creating subconsciously won’t let through,”
“Fine, wake him up, just take the samples and put him back under,” Green ordered.
That was their first mistake. The moment the ice thawed, Nico’s eyes burst open. His eyes were no longer white with pupils, they were glowing purple. He floated into standing position; he looked at the scientist, then to Green. The second mistake the men made was drawing their guns, which of course were useless against Nico. Nico stretched his hand out and made his telekinesis visible through purple light, he blasted the three men against the wall. Next he tore the metal walls off and made them into a ball around the men, then he threw it down the hall way. He turned to the rest of the capsules that held all the boys; he blasted all the bolts and screws out of the capsules. Then he shattered the glass that held the ice in place, once that was done he started thawing the ice. When the ice was half melted he took off down the hall. The least he could do was clear an exit for his teammates. He flew through endless hallways, every time he saw a scientist, guard, doctor, or even an agent, he knocked the unconscious. He continued throughout the building, then he found the lab. Rapidly he started to access files, he opened his email and began coping files and sending them to Tim’s email. As he continued to search the files he found one labeled Professor X.
Already knowing what that meant, he opened the file and read it.
Agent Green: Entry 1, Found young child, female, shows signs of telekinesis
Agent Green: Entry 2, Took girl to lab, uncooperative, sedated
Agent Green: Entry 3, girl is being monitored in cell 52314
Agent Green: Entry 4, girl broke out of cell, luckily we captured her, holding her in the POD
Nico sent the file to Tim, and then he flew straight at the wall, creating a hole in it right before he reached it. He flew to one of the unconscious guards; he probed his mind until he found The POD. He landed on the ground, with his telepathy he scanned the building, and he was scanning the 12 floor when he found what he was looking for. He pointed his hands upward; a telekinetic beam melted a whole all the way up to the top. He flew to the 12th floor, after quickly scanning the entire floor he flew to The POD. He quickly punched in an access code he had torn from the mind of the guard he’d probed. Immediately the door to The POD opened, a girl about the age of 16 fell out. Nico caught her; around her neck were a pair of dog tags. Nico observed that they custom made, the read Harley on the first and on the second it read Jake. Nico picked up the girl in his arms and flew down the hall straight out the window on the wall. As he flew over the court he saw the rest of the guys making their way towards the main gate.
“Guys, it’s Nico,” Nico said through projecting his thoughts,
“So we’re connected mentally again?” Nick thought
“Yup,” Nico replied, “How come I can’t sense Naoki or Nolan?”
“The Nolan kind of tried to blast a guard, but his powers were unstable, he only redirected the bullet” Bobby thought
“Go on,” Nico thought
“Well Naoki teleported in front of the rest of us and took the bullet,” Bobby thought, even through telepathy you could tell when some ones voice was sad.
“What about Nolan?” Nico asked,
“Nolan got mad and went on a rampage,” Nick said, “He kept shooting everything with lightning, and he was so concentrated he didn’t see the rocket coming straight for him,”
“Get out now, and make sure Bobby makes it,” Nico thought, “I’ve got someone with me, she’s unconscious”
“Of course,” Nick teased, “We get freed, so you find a girl,”
“Shut up,” Nico thought, “I’ll meet you outside the base,”
When they had all made it out of the base, they started to slowly walk away.

“Hey, Tyler,” Jasper yelled, “Come to the barn,”
Tyler slowly walked to the barn; he opened the double doors and saw Jasper standing in the middle with to metal pipes.
“What are you up to,” Tyler questioned.
“Well, I’ve realized, you have power, and you are pretty well built,” Jasper replied, “So I think you used to be part of the Legion,”
“Well, if I was, I’ll never know,” Tyler responded, “But what’s with the pipes?”
“These are for sparring,” Jasper said with a wicked grin.
“Um, no thanks,” Tyler said, “No offense but I’d probably hurt you,”

“I can’t believe you got beaten by an old man,” Angel laughed,
“Hey, this old man can hear you,” Jasper shouted from the kitchen
“I just didn’t want to hurt him,” Tyler whispered.
“Right, that’s why you let his hit you a bunch of times,” Angel said sarcastically.
“Whatever,” Tyler moaned, “Hey Jasper do you have a computer?”
“Nope,” Jasper yelled, “But the town library does, it closes at 6 so you’ll have to hurry,”
“K I’ll be back soon, try not to do anything stupid,” Tyler said.
“I’m coming with you,” Angel yelled as she ran out the door after Tyler.

“This is Agent Green, we just got a signal from the missing files,” Green said into his hand radio.
“Good then track them down and get the back,” King yelled through the radio, “Out of curiosity where are they,”
“The signal is coming from a library just outside of Long Beach,” Green replied, “I can have one my old pals search it, Jasper Spooks, he’s an ex Marine,”
“
