Sorry, I've been really busy. The next one will be faster, I promise. Oh, and if you know Jonah's eye color please review or PM me. Just as a refresher, I do not down 39 clues. Though that would be sweet. Enjoy!

Ted looked at the white ceiling, exhausted. He wanted to go back to … wait. White ceiling? He looked at the blue wall, Reagan, Madison and Ned. He smiled big enough that he thought his face would break.

"I can see!" He stood up and danced, all exhaustion driven away. Ned stood up and gave him a hug. Ted looked at them all.

"You guys look different, older." Reagan handed him a mirror.

"Take a look at yourself," she laughed. He looked in. Besides being older, he looked the same; there were no side effects of the surgery.

"I look different, but the same." He looked at his clothes. "And I'm wearing a hospital gown!" The boys had the girls leave so they could change, with Ted looking at everything with hungry eyes. The doctor came in to make sure they were ready to leave the hospital. He was impressed the surgery left no lasting side effects.

"Thanks boys. You have helped a lot of people today." The teens were going to stroll through the park so ted could see some more of Attleboro. It was about noon when they finally left the hospital.

They wandered the park with Ted taking in all the sights. They stopped at a hotdog stand for lunch. Unlike the Kabras, the starlings had no inhibitions to eating hotdogs.

"There was a man dressed as a giant fish to sell something, and three cats jumped on him and tried to eat him. It was so funny." Reagan was telling the boys.

"Guys, we better head home. They'll be back soon," Ned told them, looking at his watch.

"I'll beat all of you to the taxi stop!" Madison howled over her shoulder as she started to sprint. Reagan started racing after her, with the Starling boys following gamely behind. They hailed a taxi, ready to hear their friends' adventures.


The limo was carrying the kids back from the mall. Ian, Amy, Dan and Natalie were sitting across from Jonah, Nora, Hamilton and Sinead. Ian gazed out the window at all the trees and houses passing by. After shopping for paint, carpets, bean bags and other things, he defiantly thought the girls got the easier part of the deal.

All of a sudden, the car lurched to the left and stopped. The unexpected movement had thrown Amy on top of Ian. They both blushed, and Amy climbed of him.

"Sorry," she mumbled, embarrassed.

"It's fine," he told her. They waited a few minutes for the car to restart. "What's going on?" Ian asked impatiently. He stepped outside and talked to the driver. "Why have we stopped?"

"We have a flat tire," the driver admitted sheepishly.

"Do we have a spare?" the drive nodded.

"Yeah, but no way to lift the car so we can replace it." Ian smiled.

"And a Holt finally comes in handy."

Hamilton grunted under the weight of the car of the car. Dan and Ian were on his right, Jonah on his left. Even with all of them tough, they couldn't get it high enough.

"Set it down," Nora told them. "No point in wasting your energy." Sinead came up with an idea as they set the car down.

"Why don't the driver, Amy, Nora and maybe Natalie if she wants to help, push car up with you guys while I change the tire." The driver started protesting when Hamilton interrupted him.

"Are you a cahill?" Hamilton demanded. The driver nodded mutely. "Sinead is an Ekat. She was able to build or disable anything since birth. She was trained to use nuclear bombs, trucks and advanced technology as soon as she can walk." Sinead blushed at his praise, but Hamilton was too busy staring down the driver to notice. "You think she can handle changing a tire?" the driver might have argued with Sinead but faced with Hamilton's bulk, he backed down. He started muttering as Sinead smiled at Hamilton.

"Thanks," she whispered as she brushed past him. His heart started thumping. She was so beautiful. He snapped himself out of it as everyone started lifting the car. With the extra strength it was easier. Even Natalie pitched in.

"Yes!" cheered Sinead as she put the last bolt in place. "We're done." The Cahills set it down with sigh of relief and climbed back into the car. As Sinead sat next to him, Hamilton smiled slightly.


Nora sat and watched her new classmates. Ian and Amy quietly sitting next to each other, both lost in thought. They like each other, she though satisfied. Next she looked at Natalie and Dan. Opposites could attract, but they have nothing in common. They'll be interesting to watch. Sinead and Hamilton would initiate conversation once and a while, then elapse into silence. Hamilton obviously liked Sinead, but did she like him? Nora vowed to find out at next opportunity. She turned to Jonah sitting at her right. He noticed her gaze and smiled.

"Hey." His green eyes stunned her, but she smiled back.

" Hey. How you holding up?" she asked.

"Oh, I'm good. You?"

"Good." They went back to thinking, but it wasn't awkward. Rather it was a companionable silence. Nora couldn't help letting a smile brake through. Maybe she'd find her own match.
