Michael, Headmaster, looked over the results of the most recent FICAT test. Only two students out of the entire sample impressed him, one of whom was the student they had been looking for and had finally found. The additional is a bonus. He remained baffled as to why she had vanished for so long. Naturally, with so few people taking the test. He was surprised that schools had found her at all. At least they had discovered her and her brother, who they had never even heard of before."We should set up a visit to The Frozen North. We want to carry this young woman to Oakmont," he said, his eyes on his lead overseer of newcomers. " We might get a look at the boy while we are there. We must be prepared to hire him, possibly next year.Jessie Trulin looked up at him and said, "If this new test is accurate, she shows a lot of potential."“It is.” He gave her a smile."I've always been fascinated by the idea that a standardized test could identify children with the distinctive abilities we s

Naturally, All Saints Academy, a boarding school, came next. I gleaned tons of useful knowledge there, yet that spot still creeped me out when I mulled over everything. I actually had dreams, or perhaps bad dreams, from it now and then. They involved Mr. Radnick rubbing my entire body in that manner. I had been persuaded by my therapist that it was harmful, and just thinking about it gave me chills. Even though he didn't do it to many kids, Mr. Radnick did some really bad things to some of them, even though he was really nice to me and I probably loved him. Despite the fact that my therapy sessions were a lasting legacy of my time there, I still missed him. I put it behind me and carried on with my morning routine.I put on the little bit of makeup that Momma would let me use while the bacon was cooking. Because he thought his baby girl shouldn't need makeup as an adult, Daddy still teased me about it.Regardless of what Momma and Daddy said, I saw in the mirror that I wasn't a pretty

"This is the test that you took last week. Please remain quiet in class while I distribute these. After that, she gave each student an envelope with their name on it. Except for a compiled score, neither the school district nor the teachers are aware of the results. The purpose of this was to assess the intelligence of students in this grade level for the federal government. We can't use it to change what you're learning or where you're in class. Open it at home and show your parents what it says. She said, "See you tomorrow," as she gave the last envelope to someone.I quickly got up from my seat and headed for the side exit when the bell rang. I slowed down to open the envelope once I was off school property. I didn't have to listen to the other kids' teasing because, fortunately, I drove them all away. I carefully slipped my finger under the envelope's front flap, taking care not to tear the paper.I slid the folded piece of paper out as I lifted the flap to see what was inside. It

After that, he turned back to his parents. Each semester, the Oakmont program costs approximately $15,000 per student, in addition to $12,000 for room and board.Given that I ranked among the top 1% of people in the nation, what he said had me almost vibrating. That was superior to I would've at any point thought, taking into account I generally got scores contrasted exclusively with understudies in The Frozen North, yet this was the whole country!Then I heard how much the school would cost, which made any contention in me disappear. I wouldn't be able to go. For just one semester, that's more than a car would cost. I didn't know anyone who could afford that, and neither could we.As the Headmaster said that, Daddy almost spit out his coffee, but the Headmaster carried on as if nothing had happened. However, to be honest, your daughter's extremely high scores... Her score on this test was the highest ever. We would be willing to provide your family with a full scholarship to help the

My mother and I set out to pack for New York. The fact that Momma was packing for the same weather as Alaska surprised me. Given how far south it was, I would have expected it to be warmer there. I chose to pack two or three great books for the plane ride, which Momma said was extremely lengthy. I rethought my books and added a few more to my carry-on bag because Momma was very serious about it being long. Obviously, my venture envelope was in my rucksack also, which would remain with me on the plane.Momma gave me many long hugs and kisses after we finished packing. She tucked me in and helped me get ready for bed at last. I was glad she did it, even though she had given up doing it after All Saints Academy. Daddy came in a minute later, gave me a lengthy hug, then kissed me. Finally, he gave me a very close hug, which I knew would trigger a tickle attack. I started screaming loudly and messing up Momma's tuck-in job completely as soon as I realized, and the attack started. I'd reali

I suddenly realized that, with the exception of planned vacations and very rarely sick days, I had never seen Daddy take a day off from work. Even the most recent day he was ill is unknown to me. However, taking a day off just to have fun with me was a completely new and strange experience.To get down to business, there was a place I'd always wanted to visit but never did. So I made my decision quickly.Can we visit the Native American Heritage Museum? I asked, hopeful, "I've never been there but have always wanted to.""Yes, sweetheart, if that's what you want," I replied. In this way, we moved into the vehicle and went into Safe haven for breakfast. The outing was somewhat more than thirty minutes, an excursion that was typically something like twenty, however traffic was a piece weighty.We went to the museum after breakfast and walked through the various exhibits in the main building. Daddy made the decision to visit the gift shop as we walked through it. We never bought anything

If I could have remained in AHG, that would have been nice. I learn new things from them.Once more, I had to force myself to relax and control my emotions. This was the first time I had admitted that I did not have friends, and now that I did, even to me, it sounded pathetic. I could tell that I was sorry for myself.I'm fine now. Can we return? I gave Mrs. Chambers and Mrs. Ivers one last look as Momma and Daddy began to leave.I am grateful to you for your kindness and for providing me with a wonderful learning environment. I said my goodbyes and left.Mrs. Chambers coughed out, "Goodbye Shirley," appearing to have a sudden dry throat. She appeared to be unable to say anything else.Even the proper principal heard Mrs. Ivers say, "Good luck at your new school."I spent the afternoon reading a book I had purchased at the native center, enjoying the illustrations as much as the content. After that, primarily as a means of occupying myself, I went online and read a little more about t

"The pleasure is all mine, my holy messenger," he answered, embracing me comparably close.We again separated and I took out the little phony pearl studs I was wearing, supplanting them with the new Falcon Resting hoops. I cherished them and I realized they didn't feel any unique, yet it appeared to be that I was a little more grounded and my stage somewhat lighter. I could do this.I got my sacks and we made a beeline for the front room, keeping my packs in the hall. "I have the papers generally prepared at this point. Sorry about that misunderstanding," Superintendent Michael said, as we went into the lounge room.Momma gazed toward me and grinned, seeing the new hoops swinging from my ears. I realized I was radiating with charm at the gift, regardless of whether I actually didn't grin. I could feel it in front of me.Daddy and Mr. Michael started dealing with the papers, which made very much a stack. "By marking this, I'm surrendering all parental privileges to my kid," Daddy said,

The first time they took her to a doctor, she went into a fit, ending up in the corner screaming, crying and shaking. It was hours before they managed to calm her down enough to go back home. Now, when she went to the doctor for anything, they’d call ahead of time and the doctor’s office would make sure no one was dressed in the stereotypical white lab coat. They also wouldn’t let her participate in Halloween any longer, for fear of a kid dressed like a doctor.There was always a concern that people associated with the Oakmont program would come for them, but there were people continuously fighting for their freedom and privacy. The former Headmaster was reinstated, which shocked her. She had no idea how Michael managed to avoid any criminal charges over the affair, but somehow he had. What also shocked her, and Stone, was that he covered for the entire staff.Randy Brager had actively gone to work again, his entire focus was on undermining the Oakmont program and keeping the girls a

[EPILOGUE]“Mr. Michael , please explain to this committee how you managed to run a covert program, spending millions of taxpayer dollars, kidnapping children and then attempting to kill people, all without the knowledge of any committee or without any Congressional oversight?” Senator Riley, the head of the Senate’s Homeland Security Committee asked.“Sir, I was tasked with running a training program for children with unique gifts, given to them through their parents. Everything was done with full knowledge of the parents prior to being administered the serum, which granted the abilities,” Michael replied.“Then how do you explain Subjects, 11325 and 11326?”Michael , with a pleasant smile said, “There were some in the early days of the program that were willing to forego some of the basic requirements of the program. They have since been removed from the program.”“And what do you propose to do with the children of those two subjects, who had no prior knowledge of this experiment t

“What is the last thing you remember?” she asked.“I don’t know. It’s all jumbled up, like my puzzle,” I replied. She looked up at the dark haired woman, but didn’t say anything to her.“Can you think of the last thing you remember that you can clearly identify?” Mommy asked.“I remember coming home from the hospital,” I replied.“You remember that?” she asked. I nodded my head that I did.“Sweetheart, which hospital are you remembering?” Daddy asked, touching Mommy’s shoulder in an odd way.“That hospital Doctor Mead sent me to,” I told him. There was a look that passed between them, but they didn’t say anything else.“You don’t remember anything after that?” Daddy asked.“No, why Daddy?” I asked.“Sweetheart, you were six when that happened. You’re eleven now,” he said, as Mommy kept tugging on his shirt, obviously not wanting him to tell me this.“I’ve been asleep for five years?” I asked.“No sweetheart. You’ve been asleep for a little over a month, but I think you’ve lost a lot o

As I was staggering from that new surge of torment, pictures of a kid attempting to would terrible things came into my care. I realized I'd seen him previously, yet again I was unable to recollect where. Out of nowhere, the name James came into my viewpoints and I realized that was what his identity was. Some way or another, I likewise realized he was definitely not a decent individual.For what reason would I be able to get a memory of somebody pleasant? Why just a terrible individual, expecting that was a genuine memory and not any more manifestations of my psyche? No, I felt that it was genuine, yet I was unable to recollect that whatever else about him or how I knew him.Setting that to the side, in the same way as other weird bits of memory, I began slamming against my jail walls once more, tolerating the aggravation as the cost for opportunity. I endlessly battled, feeling little shortcomings structure as I proceeded with my tireless attack.At last, I felt like I could move my

She's in a lot of pain at the present time.""Shouldn't something be said about the dark region, which controls her physical processes?" she inquired."Goodness, that isn't anything. It'll fire back up in time. I'm happy you got her to a medical clinic. She could not have possibly endured extremely lengthy like this, however it'll restart soon. Perhaps a little while. What concerns me is the amount she recalls. There are a ton of these energy spikes in her essential memory districts, both long and present moment. There are a few in her clairvoyant circle, as well as those odd circles we never sorted out, despite the fact that I assume I have a few estimates on that," he told her."How long would she most likely have endured, after the underlying occasion?" she asked, inquisitive regarding his percep

“Who are you bringing and why should I allow them in my radiology department?” the doctor asked.“He’s the head of our mental training department. The man I asked him to bring is our chief radiologist. Both have expertise in this area that you simply don’t have. I mean no offense, but it’s the truth,” she stated.“I won’t allow some unknown person into this lab,” he said.“I can have the federal government take full control, if you insist, which would likely shut you down altogether, at least until we finish our work,” she threatened.“You would shut down the only hospital for miles, just for this one girl?” he asked, incredulity in his voice.“Yes,” she replied.“Is she that important?” he asked.“Yes. She represents billions in research dollars,” she said, knowing she had to give some justification. “We don’t need to go there, if you will allow us to do what’s needed, without interference, but I’ll do what I must to insure we can do what we need to.”The doctor looked at her for a l

"Aliyah, we really want to take a gander at your wounds," Mrs. Wilde said."Shirley 's gone," she said, getting the entirety of their consideration, yet not halting or thinking back."What do you mean she's gone!?" Becky hollered."I can't feel her brain any longer," the young lady answered, as she kept limping toward the destroyed house with tears in her eyes.Aliyah battled as far as possible, until she got to the yard, where Mr. Brager was lying against a halfway mass of the house. The majority of the house had imploded, including huge pieces of the wall he was lying against. There were a few quite terrible consumes and a great deal of awful cuts, however he appeared to be for the most part okay.Stone went directly to him, really looking at him for significant wounds, while the two ladies and Aliyah went to Shirley 's actually structure.

His probe was forcing its way into my mind. Against better judgement, I sent an attack at him, trying to force horrible images into his mind. He laughed, allowing my images in, which unfortunately, let him into my mind. I hadn’t realized that would happen, which was probably why I thought it was a bad idea. Such was my stupidity.His images were the same kinds of things he’d forced on me the last time, but a lot rougher, meaner. It was horrible. They were way worse than before, and I couldn’t make my mind focus. He also started pushing images of the things the doctors were going to do to me, which was much worse than what he planned.I fell on my side, curling up into a ball, unable to do anything. My mind was shutting down again and I couldn’t stop it. That’s what it wanted to do, anyway, but I’d forced it to engage.That was when I heard the words, “The government makes you stronger.” An explosion of pain blacked out everything else, even the images from James, although my own image

“I hadn’t thought of the cabin. She has very good memories there, all before she started hearing the voices,” Randy admitted.“Is it remote?” Stone asked.“More or less. For someone to go to it, they’d have to have a reason. You aren’t going to stumble on it by chance,” Randy replied.“How far away is it?” Stone asked.“Around 30 or 35 miles, driving, give or take. As the crow flies, I have no idea, but I would guess about 25 miles,” Randy said.“Not much difference between the two,” Stone observed.“No, not really,” Randy agreed.“Becky, you and Rebecca stay here. Stone and I will go find out if she’s there,” Randy said.“There’s no way I’m staying here when my little girl is hurt,” Becky told him, giving a clear display of her motherly instincts.He looked at her for a little while before lowering his gaze. “Alright,” he finally said, conceding the argument, although there were no words spoken after her first. “Everyone load up,” he commanded. Rebecca woke Aliyah up, and helped her
