-Eve-
The elevator dinged at the fifth floor and the five of us got out.
"Okay, there are five rooms on the left side of the hallways. They are alphabetical. The first is Drake's, then Roman's, then Sophia's, then Teri's. My room is the fifth room on the left. If you have a problem, you come to me. If you need help, you come to me. If you're sick and want breakfast in bed, you tell me. I am the head of this floor and I am here if you want permission to go shopping or anything. The other floors are the same. One rule though: never ever ask one of the adults for help. They will take it as a threat, and they will punish you. Got it?" I asked them. I didn't like to be harsh, but they needed to understand. The four of them nodded and I let them into their rooms for a half hour to get settled.
I knocked on each of their doors and they came out each in more comfy clothes. I'd dressed similarly.
"Time to go meet the others!" i smiled at them and pointed to the five rooms on the other side of the hallway. They all had names on the front of the doors.
Lily + Rebekah
Sawyer + Walker
June
Hazel + Anna
Jim + Nolan
I knocked on the first door and waited for nine-year old Lily and her twin Rebekah to open the door. When they did, they tilted their little blonde heads towards the Atrians.
"Hi!" they said together.
"We're here because we're special!" Lily smiled.
"Why are you here?" Bekah finished.
"They're from another planet, why don't you tell them how special you are?" I asked them and they giggled and held hands. Soon, they duplicated their bodies so there were ten Lilys and Rebekahs circling the five of us. Drake immediately took a defensive stance and the girls squealed and hid their now singular forms behind the door.
"Drake!" I grunted through my teeth. He relaxed and I brought them to the next door.
Sawyer walked through the wall to greet us (his power), and Walker was scared of them, so he talked to us with his mind. He was our telepathy geek and he didn't speak much.
Next was June. Her room was a frozen wasteland. Her body could reach absolute zero, and everything around her froze, so she shook the Atrian's hands with very thick precautionary gloves on.
Hazel had incredible healing powers and Anna could read minds, so the meeting was quick and easy, except Anna kept making quick remarks from peeking into the Atrian's minds. Jim and Nolan were our other set of twins.
Jim had webbed hands and feet, where as Nolan had a long furry tail and cat ears, with the ability to transform into a cheetah. Upstairs only two rooms were occupied, in the first room was Elle (who could change her skin and voice to look like anyone in the world) and Katlyn (our telekinetic telepath) , and across the hall was Brittney, who had claws for fingernails and enhanced eyesight and sense of smell.
The aliens and I went to the fourth floor and met all ten kids in there, those were all of the kids about to be released. They talked only among themselves. We didn't know what happened to them or why they left, so I told the Atrians not to talk to them.
"Okay," I said once we returned to our floor. "A doctor will come find you each individually tomorrow and bring you to breakfast and then to the underground rooms. Remember I'm here for all inconveniences and questions, so come anytime. Welcome to F.R.E.A.K. school," I said with a smirk and closed my bedroom door behind me.
