Site of the plane crash
George examined his arms. The rest of the people that had been on the plane when it landed had already left. He wasn't sure who they were, but many of them seemed not to be very friendly. He needed to get to Jims, and quickly, but saw that he didn't know where he was. It was definitely not New York. He started looking for landmarks, anything that might help. He really wanted to get home.
Powell residence
"Where's George?" asked Daphne
"He's probably on the way over," replied Jim, setting the table for dinner.
"That's good, he can help us celebrate," said Stephanie, continuing to make the dinner, just as the doorbell rang.
"It's about time," said Jim as he went to the door.
However, when he opened the door, he did not find George as he was expecting.
"James Powell," said the man. He was a tall man with dark skin wearing a suit "Special Agent Clay, we're with the DOD."
"Please come in," said Jim, leading the agent into the house along with the two other agents. This was the first time he got a look at them. One of the agents was a young boy, around the same age as JJ. He was constantly moving his hands in the air, as if he was manipulating something nobody else could see.
Clay walked into the dining room, where the rest of the family was waiting.
"There was a private aircraft flying over Northern California," said Clay "For reasons unknown, the plane crashed, but when a rescue team arrived, there was no longer anyone onboard."
"Why are you telling us this?" asked Jim
Clay turned to him. "Because it has come to our attention that you are no ordinary family, and these were no ordinary criminals, the government needs your families help to capture these criminals to bring them to justice, so what do you say?"
"We'll help," said Jim "It's just that we're waiting on someone…"
There was a bright flash of light. Everyone in the room had to turn away from it. When the light had faded, George was standing in the space where it had been.
"You're late," said Jim, amazed "How the hell did you do that?"
"I don't know, Jim," said George "But wherever I was, there were a lot of people with powers moving about, we need to get there now."
"George, I'd like to introduce you to Special Agent Clay and his companions," said Jim "They were just asking for our help to track down the criminals you were referring to."
George looked around. "I see I'm interrupting something, I should leave,"
"Not at all," said Clay "Your powers may also be useful, you shall come with us."
"Where are we going?" asked Daphne
"We're going to see Dr Rosen, he's the head of the Alpha project," explained Clay "He asked to see you as soon as possible."
The three agents led the Powells and George out of the room and to a large, black SUV. In the back was a second girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.
"Sup," she said, smiling at them "Name's Kat."
The Powells and George got into the back with the male agent that had been in their house and Clay and the second girl got in the front.
"So what is it you can do?" asked Kat "I haven't read your files, but I'm guessing your Alphas, or we wouldn't be here."
"Actually, we aren't Alphas," said Jim "Our powers came from a serum called trilsettum."
"Never heard of it," said Kat "You also haven't answered my question."
"I've got super strength," said Jim "I can jump much higher than any man, punch harder…"
"Just like my partner," said the boy "Bill's got those powers too."
"I didn't catch your name," said JJ
"Agent Bell," said the boy "I can see radio waves."
"Well," said Kat with a sigh "If Gary's going to hand out most of the Alpha abilities on our team to strangers, I may as well tell you mine, I've got what Rosen calls adoptive muscle memory, I can remember every skill I've ever learned, and can repeat anything I've seen, but this improvement to my long term memory is at the expense of my short term memory, every six months, I forget everything I learned, only retaining the skills."
"I have super speed," said Stephanie "Daphne can read minds as well as control them to a certain extent."
"We got someone like that as well," said Kat "You've met her already, the black haired girl, Mina."
"I'm super smart," said JJ "After the accident, I was able to solve all mathematical equations, they came easy to me, I see angles and can work out where a ball is going to go on a football field from the angles."
"That sounds pretty cool," said Kat "I'd like to spar with you Jim, I fought against Bill and kicked his ass, I'd love to kick yours too."
"You haven't told us about all of your team," said Daphne "There's one more, Rachel, right?"
Kat was impressed. "So you can read minds," she said "Yes, Rachel has greatly enhanced senses, her ability makes her very useful on a crime scene as she can look at it a lot more closely than most."
"And who's this Doctor Rosen who wants to see us?" asked JJ
"Rosen is an expert on Alphas," said Gary "He brought us all together."
"We're here," said Clay, he had opened a small door to talk to them "Mina, you take them up, I got other business I need to attend to."
Mina lead the way into the building and to the elevators.
