"Kid, if had my way, none of you would be here. This is all the suits upstairs idea. I was given your files about a month ago and told I was to do this job."

Xander nodded and watched him leave, then set about acquiring a bow and some combat knives.

It was about half an our before Xander came down to speak to Ryan. "Get the others, we're dropping you off here." He was carrying two combat knives, with a silver bow over his shoulder and a sheath of arrows sitting by his sword.

"Zoey's parents don't know she's here, and she only gets away with it because today's her 18th birthday. Katiyana's a stoic, and Aaric's going to get the business end of my sword if he doesn't lose that self-righteous attitude."

"Yeah, but why me? I've spent most of my life avoiding government intervention and authority. I mean, I guess I don't know how much is actually on my file, but I haven't even really gone through school. Why did anyone choose me?"

Ryan sighed. "I don't know. The idea of having her in my head, using my body terrifies me..."

"Will she know we have powers?" Ryan asked. "You said she'd take us over the first couple times. Is there any way for her to know we have powers other than her power not working on us? Does she control most people she comes across?"
