This is the last piece of the story for today, and the last piece I wrote of it. So lets hear it guys and girls.

The company that owned the trucks had paid Emmett's medical bill and bought him a new motorcycle and gear. The driver responsible had been fired and been charged with negligent driving and driving under the influence of alcohol. The case had been straight forward with the company not being able to do anything to defend themselves. Edward had made sure his cousin also got a nice some of money from the lawsuit.

Emmett on the other hand only let one news paper interview him and publish the article. The girl he had met had gotten him to do an interview, she had published everything he had told her and it had held nothing that made Emmett or the company seem bad. The two also seemed to become good friends after that, and would go jogging together quite often.


2 Months later

Jake and Emmett were having an all out war, tossing basket balls at each other including the occasional tennis ball. Jake just managed to dodge a tennis ball, but it had put him inline with the basketball headed his way when he instinctively held his hands out, but the ball never reached his hand. Looking up, he saw the ball suspended in mid air, dropping when he dropped his hand. On the other side of the room Emmett's eyes seemed to want to jump out of his head and his jaw was trying its best to reach the ground.

"How?!" was the only thing Emmett could make himself say.

"No idea!"

The two went to sit against the wall looking bewildered, but eventually Emmett's bewildered expression changed into a curious and thoughtful one. Suddenly, his accident popped into his head and he gurned to one of the balls laying on the basketball court. Using what he knew from movies regarding telekinesis he thought of his most enraging memories and focussed on bringing the ball to him. Jake seeing the odd look on Emmett's face, he turned to look where he was.

At first nothing seemed to happen and Emmett was about to give up, when the ball started to roll forward.

"How are you doing that?" asked Jake.

"Concentration and telekinesis." He replied, as the ball continued to roll towards them.

"Telekinesis? What?"

"You were the one who used it first, I wanted to see if I could do it."

"You meant that was me?" Jake shook his head. "Okay, we are people of science. There is no possible way this could be telekinesis."

"You just stopped a ball in mid air, and I was able to roll that ball without touching it." Emmett said.

Shaking his head Jake thought of something else. "A sudden updraft of air could do the same thing."

"Well, why don't you try it again?"

Shaking his head Jake decided to humour Emmett and concentrated on pulling the ball towards them. To his surprise it started to move, rolling across the court as if something was pushing it. Wondering how it was possible to do this, Jake turned to his friend who had a smug smile on his face.

"How is this possible?"

"How is it possible that I survived being crushed by two trucks? How is it possible that you punched a crater into solid ground without injuring yourself? We were using this ability subconsciously the last few months." Emmett explained.

"Your probably wondering how we got these abilities don't you?" Emmett asked to which Jake nodded and again he smiled knowingly.

"That smile means I should know the answer to this question..." he stated, until it struck him. "No..."

"Yes, it's exactly what you think."

"That night, with those weird star shaped crystals?" Jake asked.

"Yes, but that means-"

"We weren't the only ones affected. Jasper and Edward have to have these abilities."

"Before we go to them, we should be able to do more then just roll a ball." Emmett started. "I mean, they could think we are pranking them."

"We can go to them next week, if this isn't some prank somebody is pulling on us now."

The two packed the balls away and went back to their apartment, where Jake immediately started to do research and Emmett started to practice with coins. From the research Jake did on some websites, no matter how quirky they seemed, he gathered that the ability was only as powerful as the user was creative. It had made sense to Jake, as he had somehow telekinetically enhanced his strength and Emmett had created some sort of force field.

Practicing their skills seemed to be slow, however his friend seemed to be getting better at a much faster rate than he was. While he could lift small objects and make them float, Emmett was able to lift multiple small objects and play with them. He had first seen this when Emmett was lounging around and eating popcorn, but instead of actually using his hands he had the popcorn fly out of the bowl and around the sofa before going into his mouth.

According to Emmett he used emotions to strengthen his ability, like how Jean from X-men did it. In six days they were able to lift small object and make them fly around but larger objects took more energy and effort. They were slowly getting better at it, but what they really wanted to know was, what are the limits to this ability they have?

"So, you ready to show them tomorrow?" Emmett asked Jake.

"Yah, I want to know if this affected them in any way."


Edward sat in his office with a major headache, that didn't seem to go away. He had taken a few pills an hour ago, but they didn't seem to be working as they should, thankfully he would be going home in about an hours time which means he can relax and wait for the pills to work before the rest of his friends or girlfriend arrives. He rested his head on the cool desk, waiting for the day to end when he heard something. Frowning, he focussed harder to hear what he heard.

'I can't wait till tonight. I just need to know who the father is! I can't believe they ended the episode there.' The person ranted.

Walking out of his office, he could see his assistant busy with filing work and there was nobody else in the room. His assistant looked at him and raised an eyebrow.

'Great, what does he want now? Unless he wants to jump me, he's a pain in the ass.' She smiled at him turning her face into a carefully masked happy one. "Mr. Mason, is there anything I can do for you?"

"No everything is fine Anna, I just thought I heard somebody in here. Must be the construction workers again." Edward replied.

'Darn it, get back in your office. I just farted.' He heard her say, but her mouth was clearly not moving. He could see her face contort as if she was smelling something bad, and slipped back into his office and closed the door.

'Shit that was a close one. Darn what the hell did I eat?' he heard again.

He didn't know what was going on, but it was sure as hell not normal. At least his headache had went away, now he had to deal with hearing other peoples thoughts. 'Just bloody fantastic.' Edward thought to himself and threw an empty soda can at the bin, but he misjudged and it flew out the window. 'Shit...'

"Mother fucking hell! Who threw that!" he heard a yell coming from his window.

Edward silently slid over go his window and closed it and sat back at his desk as if nothing happened at all. When your a lawyer you can't be caught with your pants down, or in this case with your can out the window. That solitaire game on his computer suddenly seemed like a great idea.


Emmett drove his Jeep to Edwards place, while Jake sat next to him making two toy cars race each other thru the air, yet each time he wanted to let them fly past Emmett, the cars struck an invisible barrier that would fling them back at Jake. He pulled up on the drive way and parked his Wrangler next to Camaro. They were the last to arrive it seems, not that they minded at all. Emmett found Edward and Jasper sitting in the living room watching T.V with a beer in each of their hands.

"Hey guys! What's up?" Jake asked plopping down next to Jasper.

"The football game doofus." Jasper replied cheekily.

They heard cabinets opening and closing in the kitchen and knew Emmett was busy raiding the cabinets for sweets and the fridge for food. Jasper was glad it wasn't his house, since he hadn't stocked up on anything yet and would go eat at Alice's house. For some reason, he could tell that Edward felt stressed and that Jacob and Emmett felt excited yet a little nervous. Honestly Jasper had been able to know exactly what other people felt for a while now, starting two weeks after the accident.

It had helped him with his clients, speeding up their therapy from weeks to days. He could sometimes hear voices, but he wasn't sure if he heard them or was imagining things. Whatever it was, he was glad about it, but of all the times he wanted to be able to use it, he couldn't use it now. All he got now was vague impressions of their emotions, it was annoying and a little strange. While Jasper pondered about his ability, Jake was trying to figure out how to break the news to the other two.

Jake's effort was in vain, when he saw what Emmett was doing when he came out of the kitchen. Two beers were orbiting him while he was walking with a bowl of hips and dip in the other hand, chips would occasionally jump over into the dip and into Emmett's mouth. 'Show off.' Jake thought grumbling under his breath.

"Telekinesis, huh?" Jasper asked casually.

"Yah, how about you?" Emmett asked.

"Empathy and Telepathy." He replied as if it was normal.

"What's empathy?" Jake asked before Emmett could.

"The ability to sense what other people feel. Sometimes you could manipulate how they feel as well." Jasper informed him.

"Ah, so that's what that was." Emmett suddenly said, which caused questioning looks from everybody. "Back at the accident, somebody was radiating some intense emotions. Anger and hatred, which was suddenly replaced by relief and concern."

Jake blushed. "I thought you were dead."

"Well, what do you have Jake?" Jasper asked.

"Same as Emmett, though I am better at him with strength enhancing , while he is better at telekinetic barriers." Jake replied. "Oh, I don't have that empathy thing."

"I'm sure you will develop that later." Emmett replied, before turning to Edward. "So what do you have?"

"You guys are talking as if this crap is normal. I can hear what other people think, and you pretend that this is normal?" Edward asked, his face turning red.

"Well, considering we have these abilities and we can't get rid of them. Why can't we embrace them and actually turn it into something normal?" Emmett asked. "Do you know how many people would kill to have your telepathy as a lawyer? Do you realise how many people you can help with that ability of yours?"

"Sure, go on about a rant about how great this is! Do you think I asked to hear what I do? I can't turn it off like you do with your telekinesis or whatever you do. It's always there." Edward shouted.

"How long have you had this? A week?" Jasper asked calmly.

Edward went beet red. "I got this 3 hours ago..."

"Aren't we just a ray of sunshine? Seriously man, you had it for all of 3 hours and your complaining about it?" Jake asked stumped.

"It's unnatural!" he yelled.

"Geez take a chill pill will you." Jake muttered.

"He's right Edward, why are you so freaked out about it? Don't try to deny it, I know we all can sense your emotion right now." Jasper said.

Emmett sighed, looking at his friends. They needed to keep this quiet, but at the same time they needed to practise their abilities to ensure they don't slip up and mistakenly use it. He could sense the others, as strange as it sounds, and their mere presence created an effect that increased the power of their abilities. He wasn't sure if the others could feel it, but definitely could.

"We need to train ourselves to use these abilities and see how strong we become. It will help us in the future when we need to use them in an emergency situation or help us keep them in check. For now, we tell nobody and practice 3 times a week." Jasper said.

"Practice on your own when you can as well." Emmett added.

"If you learn something new, try to teach the others. It might be useful later on." Jake added his.

"Fine, what days do we practice?" Edward asked reluctantly.

"Saturdays, Wednesday and Monday." Jake asked.

"Sure." They all agreed.


Two months passed and they trained their abilities, growing stronger and gaining more control. Each of them tried experimenting with their abilities, and discovered unique things they could do with their abilities, increasing their understanding of how their abilities worked. Jake had discovered the ability to fly, the particular ability was considered the best ability almost instantly after they discovered and learned it.

Edward discovered compulsion, the ability to make others do what you wanted them to do. They were weary of this ability, as it could cause a lot of harm as well as a lot of good. Thankfully the ability didn't work on each other, laying to rest some of their fears. Emmett discovered pyro-kinesis, an ability he loved to use during BBQ's and cold days. The ability was quite simply, using your telekinesis to vibrate molecules fast enough to set them on fire and depending on the speed at which those molecules vibrated the colour of the fire differed.

Lastly, Jasper figured out Transference, the ability to teach others using telepathy. Emmett hated the fact that Jasper only discovered this after he had to sit thru a long session to finally understand how to use telepathy and empathy, when all Jasper had to do was transfer the knowledge to him now. Jasper and Emmett hovered over their camping trip location, waiting for the two others too arrive. Jake had been at practice and Edward had to complete his file work for his latest case.

Jake was the third person to arrive followed shortly by Edward. Together the four of them flew to what they had came for, the crystal that gave them their powers. They could hear it, whisper into their minds, connecting their conscious to it and strengthening them. They could feel it was alive, yet it wasn't completely alive form the way it spoke to them. Edward saw it for what it truly was a parasitic or sometimes symbiotic organism that fed off of telepathic energy.

It would give them the power in exchange for them gathering energy for it to feed on, they were receiving energy and transmitting it to this creature. There was something else it also did, it pooled their knowledge and their thoughts, from those of when they were newly born up to what the are making as they are standing there. It learned from them and their experiences, it organised their thoughts to make them more efficient thinkers. They could feel it in their minds, but there was something it wanted, something it longed for.
