A few hours went by and the bed was done as well as the room being clean. And Brennan went into Jesse's room to pick her up and move her onto her own bed in her room and the baby monitor into the same room at that time.

Then the two boys decided to play a bit of basketball while they waited for the girls to get back from shopping. Jesse had forgotten to call Shal about the books and was hoping to get a hold of Greg at one point during the next week. Maybe even go down and see him in the morning in his office at the school. When the girls returned from shopping they put the clothes very quietly into Amber's new room. It took a little bit of time for them to do that. When they were finished they all made dinner and sat down to eat together.

Jesse looked at his watch. "Well Adam said he was going to be gone for another 2 weeks. He is visiting with a friend of his and does not want to leave just yet. So we have to figure out what to do with Amber until then."

Brennan looked around the room. "Well she is sleeping right now and probably will be until the morning at least. So we might just be able to leave her to sleep and then when she wakes up see about the idea for her knowing some focusing exercises with Shal as we had planned in the first place."

Emma looked at Brennan, "I don't know if I like that idea right now I mean I want to know this girl before we let her have a full shot at Shal without any of us around to give her any help that she might need if something goes wrong."

Shal hugged her. "Emma you are playing the 'what if' game. She is not going to do anything. It might make her more stressed having you around. So I say I'll do it alone on the dojo and if I need help I'll make sure that Jesse or Brennan are around to help."

Brennan smiled "well now that we have that settled. Shal we were talking before you girls returned and we think that she should still be going to school. We have not talked to Brandon about this yet but Jesse was going to contact Greg and see about her attending the prep school in the area." He looked at Emma. "And we were hoping that Shal and Jesse could be her parents. We know that he will not say anything about that we just don't know what he will do about anything else going on."

Emma started pouting "Why can't I just make her feel calm around me like play with those feelings for the time being so that she can feel as safe with me as she does with any of you?"

Jesse looked at her. "Well Emma that would be wrong to do to anyone around." He turned to Shalimar "Maybe during the focus exercises you can talk to her about her fears when it comes to a psionic."

Shalimar nodded to everyone. It was an early night for them for the most part.

Emma stayed in her room to read and do some meditation before getting some sleep. She was still upset at Jesse for refusing to let her use her mutation on Amber to make her not be as afraid of her right now to make Amber trust her.

Shalimar went and had a hot bath before reading a magazine then checking on Amber before going to bed herself.

Brennan contemplated going sleep in Amber's room so he would be there when she woke up. But after a short discussion with Shalimar he decided against the idea. He went to do his push-ups as usual on the floor in his room and took the monitor in there with him setting it on his bed side table he went to sleep thinking about a painting he would work on in the morning with her if she wanted to help him. He was rarely the one they trusted so he did not want to let this one go too far on him.

Jesse walked into his room leaving the door open as usual he went behind the cover and changed into a pair of pyjama pants and a t-shirt for bed and then returned to working on the computer on his desk. A little bit later he picked up a book and lay on his bed to read before he fell asleep himself.

Morning came early for the four of them. Brennan got up and went to check on Amber before doing anything else. He saw that she was still sleeping in the bed and still very peaceful. Only to have Jesse come up from behind him, "Is she still sleeping, Brennan?"

Brennan nodded at Jesse. "She slept soundly all night. I kept an ear to this thing." He held up the baby monitor in his hand. "But nothing all night. Where are you off to this morning?" He noticed Jesse was dressed in a dress shirt and dress pants.

He shrugged. "I am going to call Greg after I get some breakfast and then hopefully go over and see him about Amber attending the school so if we can get her able in the next few weeks it should be good."

The two boys went into the kitchen as the girls got up out of bed as well. Jesse got on the phone after grabbing and eating a cookie that he would get something else he just wanted to catch Greg really early in the morning. He looked at Shalimar. "You are okay to come and meet him with me later if we need to?"

Shalimar nodded as she made herself some toast with peanut butter on it. Emma and Brennan both got themselves some cereal from the cupboard for breakfast. Jesse left the kitchen area to make the phone in private.

A secretary picked up the phone when he called. "Hello, this is Miss Jordan at Yellow Vision High. How can I help you?"

Jesse sighed. "I am looking for Greg Thompson, is he around?"

"He is in his office give me a second and I will transfer you, may I ask who is calling?"

"Jesse Kilmartin, I am an old friend of his from high school."

"Okay give me a second." The line goes dead and she says to the president of the school when he picks up the phone. "There is a Jesse Kilmartin on the phone wanting to speak to you, can I patch him through?"

"Certainly Jenna." He put the phone down and when it rang he picked it up again. "Jess it has been too long."

"It certainly has Greg. I was wondering if you are not too busy today I have a favour to ask, but I should come down and see you to ask it in person."

"By all means, I'll tell the secretary to be expecting you. Are you bringing anyone along with you?"

"Ya a friend of mine Shalimar but she is not the reason we are going to be meeting up. I'll explain everything when I see you. Give me 15 minutes and I'll be there." With that he hung up the phone and headed to the kitchen where Shal was eating. "You ready to go?"

She nodded at him as the two of them left.

When they got to the school Shalimar looked at the size of it. "You used to go to school here?"

"Yep." He sighed and headed for the front door. "6 whole years, now a friend of mine is president of the school. He knows about all of this that is why Brennan and I thought it might be easier for her to go here. Greg is a psionic himself; it makes his job much easier to catch those who are telling lies about class and stuff."

"Do you think that is a good idea?" Shalimar asked as she walked in the front door. "I mean with her fear of them."

Jesse led her into the front office. "That is why I don't plan on telling her until she has been here for a while unless she gets into trouble." He looks at the secretary, "We are here to see President Thompson, he should be expecting us."

The secretary got up, "Follow me" and led them into an office with chairs and a desk. "He has just gone to the washroom, and should be back in a second."

Jesse and Shalimar have a seat as they wait for him to arrive back into his office. When he does he says, "Jesse Kilmartin, it has been way too long since your last visit to this office." He shuts the door while he is talking. "I know why you have come but I want to talk to you still."

Shal looked at Jesse, "how does he do that?"

Jesse turned to look at her. "I told you he is a psionic, he can hear our thoughts we have had going back until the last time we slept so he can basically only hear the ones from this morning." he hugged his old friend. "I do agree Greg it has been too long, what was it grade 12 when we last found ourselves in here together."

"It was, it was. We had managed to put pudding in all the girls' bathrooms. We were trouble makers together. What brings you here today, you should have come last night?" He settles himself into his chair behind the desk.

"She was restless all night; you know how it is when you first are getting a handle on your gifts. She has been taught to fear them when she uses them. Would not sleep, or even shut her eyes without help from the outside world if you know what I mean."

"Yep I know what that is like. So tell me about her?"

"She is about 16 we figure. Somehow bribed her way to get her license early, she is a molecular like myself at least. We think there might be something more than that. But we have not had a chance to take a look. Other than that we know very little about her. I understand for purposes you need two names on the forms that is why I brought Shalimar with me."

He turned to Shalimar. "My apologies I have not intended on leaving you out of the conversation. That was rude of me." He stood up and went to the door. "I will go get the paper work so we can fill it out right now then we can continue talking."

Shalimar got up and started pacing for a few seconds until he returned to the office. When he did she returned to her seat. "If I make you nervous please feel free to stand up." He smiled at her. "I am sure that Jess has not said much about me. I understand when people fear having all their thoughts out on the table for me to see. I do turn it off but it takes a little time and he is used to me doing it to him anyway." He placed the papers on the desk and handed Jesse a pen to fill in the information.

Jesse looked at the forms and began filling them out. "Is it okay if I put down my last name for hers? We don't want her mother finding her down here."

Greg looked at him. "Is situation that bad at home?"

Jesse nodded, "From what we can tell and what we know about her home life. She has not said much to us about that. We should probably get a schedule put together for her while we are here."

Greg nodded as he pulled out a binder. "All the classes are in there do you guys know what she likes. We still have the mentor program here so if we can put her in a class with a mentor it would be nice. I still hand pick them every year."

Shalimar was looking, "Well I would say Chemistry, she had a book for that when we found her, and she said that she enjoyed that class. She should have English for the reading. Are there any she has to take?"

He thought for a second and looked at a sheet on his desk. "She is a grade ten?" Jesse nodded to him. "English, math, a science, another language class, gym is probably a good idea, history, human studies, and then one choice one."

Jesse looked at the book, "Okay so we go English, math, chemistry, history, psychology would be the human studies, gym as you suggested helps with the whole mutation thing, for her choice we can go with sports I am sure she will want to stay active, and as for the other language lets go with Spanish." He smiled. "If she wants to change any before she starts we will be able to right?"

"For an old friend like you, she gets a week into the class and hates it for a logical reason and I will change it for her." He smiled at Jesse. "Remember I know what it is like being alone. We both do after a while."

"Thanks Greg, I'll bring her by in a few days for you to meet. But I will tell you this, she for some reason that we don't know yet has an intense fear of psionics, so if you could keep that quiet around her, we don't need her running away before we even get her settled in. If you know what I mean?" He smiled as he shook hands with Greg.

"Sure we can do that. I will be expecting to see you by the end of the week if possible. We just started a new semester. I will notify the teachers that they are getting a new student and I am taking a special interest in this one." He opened the door for Jesse and Shalimar as the two of them left the school together.

Then they returned how Brennan was standing in the door way of her room. "She has been stirring for the past ten minutes. I think she is waking up from her sleep. How did it go at the school?"

Jesse looked at him. "Very well, Greg said to bring her down when I get a chance so he can meet her. He is going to set her up with a mentor so she does not have to navigate the school on her own."

Brennan nodded as Amber slowly started to rub her eyes and look around at the room she was currently in. "Where am I?" she looked at Brennan and smiled at him. "Did you move me in here while I was asleep? How long was I asleep for anyway?" and with that she phased through the bed half way. "Oh great, not again."

Jesse walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder. "This is going to feel funny but I am going to help you get out of the mess you just got yourself into." He phased her body and lifted her off the bed. "Better?"

She nodded. "Much but you did not answer my questions."

Brennan walked over to her. "You have to be hungry why don't we get you some breakfast then we can talk while you eat. Does that sound good, and I promise to answer any questions you have okay?"

She nodded and followed him to the kitchen area. "What would you like to eat, we have bread, cereal, and eggs."

"Toast is fine for this morning. I don't think I have ever slept that long in the past 2 years. It was wonderful." She smiled as she hunted around for the knife and butter for her toast as it came up out of the toaster. "I am not really a morning person, so while I make this why don't you tell me how long was I asleep for?"

When she was settled at the table with her food he sat down across from her. "Well you fell asleep at 3 yesterday afternoon and it is 10 in the morning. So I would say you were asleep for 19 hours." He smiled at her.

"Well that is just lovely. What is the plan for today?" she smiled back at him as she took a bite of the toast she had made for herself to have.

"Well first of all you are going to finish eating. Then if you are willing to trust Shalimar enough I was hoping she could show you some focusing exercises to help you out. Then if you are ready I would say maybe get you into the lab with just me and Jesse and Shal in there to see if we can tell what is your mutation exactly." He smiled as he looked up at her.

Amber put her head down in defeat. "I guess. But can we do that lab thing first, I think if there is no one else around it might be easier for me to resist doing that." She shut her eyes and thought for a second. "Can I ask you to do something for me?"

Brennan looked at her, "What is it, Amber?"

She smiled, "If I can't see what is going on it might be easier to do this." She was hoping that he would see where she was going with this idea that she had.

He nodded, "you mean the vision cloacker." He put his hand on hers that was on the table. "If I agree to this do you think that you could trust me enough so that Emma, who is a psionic, could be there in the room with us?"
