Pili was happy to finally meet the children of Helen Magnus and James Watson. To enter the new underground Sanctuary system there was a whole intake process just like customs at an airport, but with blood work. After Pili had Gotten Blood work from everyone including Daisy and the other 9 Sapsuckers. She scanned Jessica, Christopher, Georgina and Gregory's eyes and got finger prints to put in their files. Helen had been very clear, Jessica was a very dear friend and she was to have unrestricted access to Ashley and to the Merfolk. The Helen's twins that were about to turn 18yrs old could have access to the entire library, with no restrictions.
They came in the main entrance for City 1. As they walked up to the first building there was a beautiful garden, similar to the Victorian gardens people would walk about in. Pili showed them to a Yuri, they hadn't gotten the room/habitat ready for the Sasquatches yet. She thought the Yuri might be a nice way to ease them into the new life at the Sanctuary. Daisy, Rock (her mate) and the 2 elder females thought it was expectable and were happy to try and settle the kids. Pili had set blankets, a camp fire stove and some food already in the yurt.
The twins now knew why their mom had taken so long to build the new "house". That's because she was building a city. It had 2 large building, 2 smaller buildings that seemed they might be for supplies or something similar. A big beautiful waterfall with a hydro plant, and multiple divided ponds. Plus a transit like track overhead.
Gina asked to see the waterfall up close. Pili was happy to show them and point out the water garden and small walkway which lead to a maintenance access. The other big building was only half the size of the first. That building housed most of the non-sentience abnormals. It also had an aviary on the top floor, which caught Chris' attention. Pili told them she would be happy to give them more extensive tour tomorrow. For now she needed to get them to their Living Unit and get back to the other intakes.
They took the lifts/elevator to their Unit. There bags were sitting outside the door to the unit. Pili gave each of them a thin silver bracelet. She explained that was like an access card. She gave each of them a tablet. She explained it had a tutorial about the Sanctuary and general code and conduct that was expected of everyone with a level 1 resident access.
She pointed out the doors had their names taped to them. She encouraged them to look around as no one else lived in the unit yet, with that she excused herself.
We you first walked in the Unit there were 2 bedrooms that shared a bath between them, to the left. There was a large sofa and 2 recliners facing a half wall that stuck out 8ft, with a wide screen tv on it. On the other side of the wall was a book case another large sofa, 4 comfy looking chairs and a few coffee tables. The view was amazing from the very large window. On the right side as you walked in. Was Gregory and Gina's rooms shared a bath between their rooms. Then an empty room that joined Chris and Jess' room. Another 2 empty rooms with bath, a Family kitchen with a 6 person table in it. A linin closet and 2 more rooms, Jess smiled as she saw Helen's name on the last doors. Figured Helen would want a room with a great view. Even if it meant her bedroom shared a wall with the family/reading room.
"Oh My Gosh," Gina said admiring the view. Gregory grabbed his bags and opened his door. His room was about 16 by 12 and the bathroom was twice the size of the one he used to share with his sister. Jess opened the door to their room after peaking in Gregory's. Jess and Chris had a bigger room, it was about 16 by 20. All the bedrooms were furnished with a bed, dresser, nightstands, mirrors, and a sitting area. Jess could only imagined Helen's room was the same size. Jess notice there were a few pictures hanging in her room and hanging on the walls of the siting room, of both the Farm, Victorian London and the Old City Sanctuary. Jess sighed looking at one. Gregory walked up behind her, "Do you regret burning it down?" Jess looked at him with a sad smile, "The barn was your workshop, do you regret burning it down?" Gregory shook his head, "And let those Bas... Bad people have my things! No way!" Jess chuckled at Gregory for stopping himself from swearing. "I feel the same. I'll miss the house, but I have what is important right here with me." She gave him a side hug.
Jess went into mothering mode tell the kids to go shower and put their stuff away. They immediately started arguing about who got to shower first. Chris came up snaking his big strong arms around Jess. "I think our shower is big enough for 2." He kissed her neck. "You look far too tired for me to let you shower alone." Jess squirmed at his whiskers as no one had the opportunity to shower or shave in over a week. "I am beat, my love. A shower and a cuddle would be nice." She took his hand and pulled them towards their room.
Pili finale got the Merkids into their habitat/pond and settled. It was dinner time but she needed to get to her office to talk the person currently in charge at Sanctuary city 2. Pili adjusted her scarf and made she was presentable. She faced her computer and placed her video call. It took a few minutes be for Olivia answered. Olivia was an Alton, three headed person to her right was Rosa and to her left was Mandy. They were each their own person. Rosa was a poet and a romantic, Mandy was shy and mischievous, and Olivia was the responsible one.
Pili wasn't sure that Olivia would be able to handle to responsibility, but it had worked out quite well. "Hello Pili, this is unexpected." Olivia said in her very elegant voice, her skin looked a very pale green and her gold eyes looked happy today. "Olivia, I'm glad I got a hold of you. The Merfolk arrived and yes they are young. The oldest is a male and doesn't appear to be over 60-65. I was hoping as we discussed earlier you could send a couple of your telepaths? So we can communicate as they don't seem to be able to communicate with non-telepaths."
"Of course, I have 3 ready to come tomorrow after lunch. They will be bring a younger Telepath. Her name is Lee, she only 20 but is eager to learn." "That will be wonderful I will set up guest rooms so they can spend the night and return the next day."
Pili want to look at all the blood work results before she called it a day and go get some dinner. The sasquatches blood was fine, the kids looked fine, Chris his was excellent, but Jess her blood work caught her eye. Oh dear she thought, I guess dinner will have to wait a little longer.
Pili went up to the Magnus family unit and knocked. Gregory ran up to the door and opened it with a smile. "Dr Pili, we are just sitting down to eat. Would you like to join us?" He asked as he ushered her in and shouted, "It's Dr Pili." Pili couldn't deny the smell coming out of the kitchen was very good. "I would love to at a later date. I just need a quick word with Jessica." Jess was putting a plate of some kind of meat on the table, before walking into the large open area which served as a hallway. "Is something wrong?" Pili shook her head and smiled, "No, nothing's wrong, it's just been a long day. I don't want to keep you from your dinner, but I will need to see you tomorrow at about 10am." Pili thought Jess still looked suspicious, but there was no point in saying anything until she ran a second test to make sure. "I'll be ready," Jess answered with a tired smile. "Try and get some rest, I know the last week has been extremely rough. And if you have time make sure you all read the code and conduct, before looking around tomorrow."
Pili would have had someone else take Jess to the infirmary and do her tests. But Helen had told Pili she had a strong feeling Jess and the women in her family were somewhat empathic. If Jess showed any signs Pili was to get a MRI. Pili got done with the blood work, she decided she might as well give Jess a full work up. Jess didn't question Pili but did look at her with great suspension when she wanted to get a MRI. After the MRI, Pili had an ultra sound machine brought into the exam room. "Ok Pili, if I can call you that? What is all this? What was in my blood work that makes all this necessary?" Pili sat down on the stool and wheeled it closer to the table Jess was sitting on. "The MRI was just an extra test I did while we waited for your blood work." She smiled quite big at Jess, "Have you and your husband been planning to start a family?" Jess looked confused, "Well, we would love to start a family. We have a health bedroom life, but we just haven't got pregnant." "Until now," Pili smiled ear to ear as she put her hand on Jess' knee. It took Jess a few seconds to catch what she meant. "What? Are you serious?" Jess looked at her stomach with surprise. "When, I mean how long? I mean..." Pili laid her back and when they were done she conclude that Jess was 13 weeks. Jess felt stupid for not realizing, but Pili reassured her it wasn't always obvious.
Pili need to get back to her office. She had Jess walk with her as she had a special laptop for her. It had all the information about Ashley on it. Everything since Helen had saved her and came up with a treatment. To undo the mind control Ashley had been under. Pili explained to Jess that Helen had wanted her to look and see from a rehab point of view what they should try. Because up to now nothing had been working. Ashley was sedated 20 hours a day, for everyone's safety, including Ashley's. Jess tried to tell Pili that her rescue and rehab patients were animals. Pili told her Ashley was nonverbal and even the telepathic people couldn't get through to her. The laptop also held a file with the new merfolk in it as Helen said Jess was to have complete access to all things regarding mermaids and merfolk. Jess had read everything Helen gave her on Merfolk 10 times at least.
Pili had to get back to her work and had to simple ask Jess to watch the videos of Ashley, read the note, and maybe visit her. But not to go in the room, even if she was sedated, it was just far too dangerous.
