(A/N: Hey everybody I've got chapter 26 ready for you, I know I said I'd get this out yesterday but I got a little distracted with some stuff, and for some reason I was just tired as hell so I didn't really feel up to the task which is a lame excuse but that's why I'm going to put up another chapter right after this one. Alright here you go and please enjoy.)

Chapter 26: Biotics 101

I'd finally finished the radiation therapy, which meant I might be on the fast track out of this dump, I'd been here long enough in my opinion to be fair, I just wanted to go home and try to get back to the one thing that I'd taken for granted more than anything, a normal life on a boring old colony. But between the moments I get with my family, and the hot sex I get with my girlfriend I wasn't in that much of a hurry, I was just glad to have some time with my family and my loving sweetheart, which I'm afraid was cut short due to what Shakrimi had promised me the other day, she was going to begin my formal biotic training, and she'd decided to start bright and early in the morning. You know like at boot camp?

"RISE AND SHINE YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT!" She blasted in my ear, I shot up out of the bed and just glared at her.

"Do you have any idea of what time it is?" I asked rhetorically and with anger clear in my voice as I didn't enjoy her waking me up this early.

To which she just retorted with. "YEAH I DO, IT'S ABOUT FIVE MINUTES PAST GET THE FUCK OUT OF THAT BED AND MOVE YOUR ASS FOX BECAUSE WE HAVE A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER IF I'M GOING TO TEACH YOU THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WORTH WHILE BIOTIC AND A PISS PORE ONE NOW MOVE YOU LITTLE SHIT STAIN!" I slowly rose from the bed then I looked up at the clock to check the time, 2:30 AM, for god sake that is way too early to be doing this shit. I began to rub the sleep out of my eyes as I followed her down the hall with the gaze of several very displeased looking people who'd been sleeping just as I was, thankfully they were mainly focused on Shakrimi and not me as it was her who decided that I was supposed to get up at this ungodly hour.

She lead me outside to a make shift training course with practice dummies all lined up in a row most of them standing a few feet apart while some were bunched together. "Alright, we're going to focus on the basic stuff first, we'll start off easy with the classic biotic throw, step 1: focus on your intended target, step 2: concentrate and focus your energy…" She then began to demonstrate as she summoned her biotic aura and created a familiar blue sphere in her open hand. "Step 3: you let'em have it." She then threw her biotic throw at a lone dummy and knocking it over, a simple enough move, definitely no pressure. "Okay, now you try."

I took a deep breath and just remembered everything she'd said, focus on my target, concentrate and focus my energy, then…BOOM, I hit the dummy alright, but it just exploded instead of just fall over. I just went slack jawed as did Shakrimi. "Uh…okay, that wasn't what I was expecting, but at least you managed it."

I then just stared at my paws as if they'd had a mind of their own. "Do you think that…maybe…it's because I'm a bit more powerful than a normal biotic?" I asked feeling a bit curious.

She began to scratch her chin as she fell deep into thought. "Hmm…that could be a possibility. So maybe we should wait until the doctor hands you that dampening collar before we try anymore offensive abilities, let's try something else like the simple barrier. This ones pretty easy to master, just focus a large amount of your power around your entire body and…" A blue biotic shielding had formed around her entire frame, she then tossed a pistol at me and said in a very confident tone. "Go on, hit me with all you got." I was a bit hesitant at first, I didn't want to hurt her, but if she wasn't scared then I had no reason to think that I'd actually hurt her, I aimed the gun and shot a few rounds at her, the shots stopped as soon as they touched the shielding. "See? Nothing to it, now you try."

I handed the gun back to her and concentrated. I took a deep breath and, presto. "Hey I did it, I guess I'm just a natural at WHOA!" Shakrimi pointed the gun at my head and shot me, thankfully my barrier stopped the bullets, that's when I just marched up to her and shouted in her face. "WHAT THE HELL SHAKRIMI?! YOU COULD'VE KILLED ME!"

She just laughed and said. "Sorry, but I just couldn't resist." She put her gun back in her holster and slowly her laughter died down.

"That wasn't funny, you could've killed me and your just laughing about it." I shouted making it very clear that I didn't find this funny in the least.

She just waved it off and replied a little too calmly. "Oh c'mon kid, you had a barrier up you were fine."

You know those moments when you get so mad you just want to explode? Well for me, this was one of those times. "That doesn't give you the right to make me shit my pants you crazy bitch!" I blasted, both my words and a biotic blast out of nowhere, it sent her flying about ten feet, I immediately ran over to her afraid that I'd hurt her, she slowly got up groaning. "I'm sorry I'm so sorry I didn't mean to do that I wasn't even…" I apologized feeling so much guilt, but she just laughed and said.

"Holy shit kid, that was one hell of a nova blast." I was puzzled by what she'd said, so I just asked her. "What's a nova blast?"

She quickly explained as she started to stand up slowly. "What you just did with your barrier kid, you can turn it into a super powerful energy burst that covers a three-hundred-sixty-degree perimeter up to five kilometers, but usually it doesn't send people flying this far from ground zero, I guess that's another thing that hyper eezo's got on regular eezo. I know this goes without saying it kid but you are one tough biotic, or should I call you a hyper biotic, you know on the account of you being five times stronger than a normal biotic and all, plus there's the fact that you got your power from hyper eezo." She made a good point, and I had to admit the term hyper biotic made me sound like I was in a whole different weight class.

I helped Shakrimi on her feet and then I asked. "So how exactly did I do that? Because I didn't even know that was even a thing I could do."

She chuckled a bit then said. "Well that's like asking a lightning bolt how it starts a fire kid, it just happened for you, for like no reason, but I think your emotions had something to do with it, lesson number two on biotics one-o-one, your emotions have a strong connection to your powers." My emotions can trigger my powers? I guess that explains why all the stuff in my room started floating in zero gravity.

"So let's say that I get super angry, what would happen to those around me? Hypothetically speaking of course." I asked with a mixture of curiosity and fear.

She just shrugged and said casually. "Well depending on how close they are to you they'd probably get the fuck beat out of them, anger can especially cause you to lose control of your powers and then everyone around you will be affected one way or another, for example let's say you just saw a friend of yours get hurt, what's gonna happen from you? The answer, you're probably going to go nuts and tare that guy in two, but there's a good chance that you might hurt your squad mates even if you don't want to as your anger could cause your power to go nuts and your team might get caught up in it."

That was something that scared me, but at least it helped me understand that I had to keep my power in check, and she was right after all, I got angry and my power got out of control, I'm just glad she had put up a fresh barrier before I went nuts otherwise she might be dead. The next few hours we focused on meditation techniques, apparently my power would be strong enough to break my bones or give me a brain hemorrhage if I'm not careful, but that usually only happens when you don't use your powers sparingly.

Eventually morning came around and Shakrimi managed to get Dr. Neeva to get my collar ready, it was a black leather band with a lot of gizmos on it with flashing lights, the doctor put it around my neck and started to fidget with it a bit trying to get the power draw right so I wouldn't kill anyone by mistake. "Can you go a little faster? I've gotta pee." I groaned feeling the discomfort of a full bladder creeping up on me. Yeah that's right, Shakrimi didn't even let me use the bathroom before she started training me, what a bitch right?

"Just a few more seconds, I just need to get this last power dampener set to the appropriate setting and…done, okay now let's see if you can still use your biotics." She walked over to the far side of the room and picked up an apple out of the fruit bowl, then she said. "Use your biotics to pull the apple out of my hand."

I did as she'd instructed, or at least I tried to, but nothing happened. "Uh…hey doc…wasn't this thing supposed to only take away some of my abilities?" I asked feeling a bit annoyed and confused.

The doctor just facepalmed and said with an annoyed voice. "Oh Keela, well looks like I have to do some minor adjustments, but I'll wait until you use the facilities first as your probably close to…"

I interrupted her before she could finish. "Okay thank you doc that'll be all." I scurried out of there and off to the nearest restroom to relieve myself, then I made my way back to the doctor so she could fix the collar when I caught a glimpse of a very familiar interspecies couple that I'd grown to know and love, and I was happy to see that one of them was finally awake, they were both sitting snuggled up to one another on the couch in the hospital lounge where patients could just get together with their families and just catch up with one another.

Both of them were in hospital gowns, but only Allen was wearing bandages, they were wrapped around his head covering his eyes, I guess that he was recovering from his surgery still, and Cloey was still trying to get re-accustomed to walking as she had a wheel chair next to her. I walked over to them and just greeted them like I hadn't seen them in forever. "Well look what the wind blew in, I didn't expect either of you guys to be here." I said as I made my way over to the happy couple.

Cloey looked up and shook Allen and said. "Baby Cody's here he came to see us." Allen of course couldn't see me but he did realize I was there by my sent, and of course that his girlfriend had announced me. He stood up and felt around for Cloey's wheel chair, he found it then pulled it over to her then he helped her into it, for someone who couldn't see he didn't act like it that much, he started to push Cloey and she just told him where to go as he did. She told him to stop just a bit in front of me. "Cody, I'm so glad to see you're okay."

I could tell she wanted to get up and hug me but she of course couldn't so I just leaned over and hugged her before saying. "Glad that your back with us."

I then looked up at Allen who was still standing behind his girlfriend, until Cloey turned and said. "Allen don't be rude, say hi to him."

"Huh? Oh right, sorry dude they've got me on this pain killer which feels amazing by the way." He announced sounding a little stoned.

I chuckled a bit then I replied. "Well don't become a junkie, you've already become addicted to this fine young lady and I don't know if you could handle a double addiction."

Cloey giggled then shoved me playfully. "You flatterer, so what are you here for?" She asked plainly, I would've thought that she would've known by now.

"Allen didn't tell you?" I asked in reply.

"Allen baby, did you know he was here too?" She asked sounding only a bit annoyed.

He then shrugged his shoulders and said. "No, the last time I saw him I got shot by that solarian bitch, then I woke up in the hospital and I found my eye was gone, then the admiral told me he could get me a new eye with my military benefits along with some new techy eye lense that would sync up with it, then I find out that you were here to get treatment for your scar tissue to be removed and here we all are."

Then I asked them both the same question. "So your both here to get treatment?"

"Well I am, Allen is just recovering from surgery, I however still have a few weeks of laser treatments to go if I'm going to get rid of all of this scar tissue."

I thought I miss heard her, so I then asked. "What do you mean get it all removed? I thought that you'd never be able to walk without a cane."

She just smiled at me and replied warmly. "Well that might have been the case back home, but the quarrians have some of the best medical technology in the galaxy, and somehow…"

I had a feeling that I already knew who was responsible for this generosity then interrupted her by adding. "Let me guess, my dad?"

"Actually no, it was your mom." She corrected, I found that to be a bit of a surprise, I didn't even know how my mom had done it or why, well actually that one's not entirely true it's obvious why she did it.

"My mom? But how? I mean I'm not saying that this isn't fantastic for you but how did she pull this off?" I asked with confusion.

"I was kinda hoping you'd tell me so I could thank her, I really owe her one." She shrugged as she just looked just as confused as I did. We all sat down and just discussed all the details about my condition along with everything that Cloey had missed, from the start of the militia to the fight for our colony, when we told her that she'd nearly been killed by the anointed daughter she just shuttered at the name and I could tell by the look on her face that images of Crystal were flashing through her head.

"So anyway that's when Angel came out of know where and took the shot for me, then…oh and I've decided to refer to him as a he from now on just to be clear, he put his arms together and they formed into a Gatling gun and he just mowed down the reaper's honor guard with one sweep of his gun, then after that we had the reaper pinned down and ready to take him in, but sadly that bastard got away with Crystal in tow." I think she found the part of a geth coming to save my ass was the most intriguing part to her.

"So…you were saved by a geth? I thought the geth only stayed here on Rannoch." She pointed out the truth, most of the time the geth don't usually leave the Quarrian home world, mostly because of their bad reputation from centuries of killing anyone who entered the system, mostly out of fear that is. Yes apparently they know what fear is and they don't like it.

"We usually do…" An electronic robotic voice startled us all as angel disabled his cloaking device and becoming visible to us all, well except Allen of course as he was still wrapped up in bandages.

"For crying out loud dude don't do that, you scared the living crap out of us." I said as I clenched my heart with my paw.

He then stated in what I think was an apologetic tone. "We apologize Sargent Blaze; this chassis was designed not to be seen nor heard on the battlefield. We will announce ourselves next time we approach."

Cloey just stared right at the mech completely awe stricken, I guess this was the first time she's ever seen a geth in real life. He then just got up in her face and just checked her over, this startled her a bit as she cocked her head back a bit. Angel then looked back at me and asked. "Sargent Blaze, is this organic a friendly to you?"

I then rolled my eyes and said. "Yes Angel she's a friend, so do me a favor and DON'T put her on your hit list for me okay?"

He then turned back to her and said. "Please state name, rank, and species for authorization records." Oh boy here we go again.

She just darted her eyes over to me for a quick second as if to ask me if he was being serious, I just nodded then she proceeded sounding very awkward. "Uh…my name is Cloey White? I have no rank as I'm not military, and I'm a white-tailed deer, specifically a doe."

"Please open eye's as wide as possible and remain still." He asked as he knelt down and got in her face again, and just as before he flashed a bright light and it blinded her.

"Ow, what was that for?" Cloey asked as she rubbed her now stinging eyes.

"Record complete, Cloey White, white-tailed deer, doe, civilian, we recognize you as a friend rather than a threat." He said as he slowly stood up right.

She looked over to me with a look that said, what the fuck, I just shrugged. "There you are Mr. Blaze, I thought you were coming back to your room after you relieved yourself." I turned around and saw the doctor as she entered the lounge.

Which of course reminded me that I still had stuff to do. "Oh, sorry doc, I just wanted to chat with a couple of my friends from back home, Cloey, Allen, this is Dr. Neeva Zorah the head doctor of this hospital, as well as the owner of it if I'm not mistaken, doc this is Cloey White and her boyfriend and one of my squad mates Private Allen Timbers." I felt I had to introduce them.

But I found it was unnecessary. "I know who they are, I was the one to perform his surgery around the same time you were administered to my hospital, and I also approved of the request your mother made for her to be transferred here so she could be given the treatment for her scar tissue surgery, which by the way I will be taking over for you today dear, don't worry I'm one of the best surgeons in this hospital." She said with a smile.

I quickly asked her what was already asked to me a while ago. "So why did you accept my mom's request to treat Cloey for her injuries anyway? Aside from the obvious that is."

"Well it's mostly to do with your mother being my sorority sister from my days back in College, Keela those were probably the most exciting days of my life, your mother was a real party animal, if you'll pardon the pun that is." My mom? A party animal? No way in hell is that true, she has a giant stick up her ass about going to college parties.

"You're sure that this is my mom we're talking about right?" I asked as to make sure she wasn't confused.

"Yes Cody, I assure you that your mother and I used to be in the same sorority together, we met on the night of our initiation, oh keela that was embarrassing." She said as she held her forehead. "I also happened to just develop a brand-new experimental laser to help break apart scar tissue which I had told her about a few months prior, we get together with our sisters at least once a year just to have a day to ourselves, anyway I wanted to test it out and see just how well it works and Ms. White was the perfect candidate so I agreed to have her transferred here for treatment free of charge." Cloey just smiled at the doctor with appreciation. "I'm also happy to report that the first procedure was a success as well, but you still have a while to go before you can do any athletics, so please don't do anything too…physical until then. And that includes sexual activity by the way."

Cloey nodded at the doctor. "Sure thing, so how long until Allen can see again?" She added as she motioned over to him.

The doctor turned toward him then looked at Angel then asked him. "Angel, could you use your biometric scanner to see if he's recovered enough from his surgery to remove the bandages?"

"Of course Dr. Zorah, Private Timbers, please remain still." Angel made a series of buzzes and clicks as he just stared at Allen, then it said abruptly. "Surgical injuries have healed by an estimated 82%, we recommend two more weeks for recovery."

"There you go, two more weeks and those bandages can come off." She said to both Allen and Cloey.

"I didn't know you could do that." I said as I looked up at my bodyguard.

Angel then looked down at me and replied bluntly. "It is a necessary instalment to this platform's hard ware, to insure the stable health of all organics in need, we also are capable of detecting any and all possible chances of death with in an organic being. Should such events arise, we build the most logical and humane course of action to ensure that suffering is kept to a minimum."

When he said that I remembered the Asari girl that I'd witnessed get shot in the head back home, so I asked the burning question that had been nagging me sense then. "Mainly out of curiosity, was it you who shot the black heart pilot back on Eden prime during the battle?"

He answered without delay. "Yes." It wasn't just him admitting it to me but the way he said it that creeped me out, it was cold, lifeless, and almost dark.

Then I asked him the real question I wanted to ask him. "Why did you kill her? She was injured and unable to fight back, she wasn't a threat."

He quickly responded. "We detected an air bubble developing in her left femoral artery which would have led to a stroke within a minute, effectively killing her and making her needlessly suffer, we calculated that ending her life with a single shot was the more humane thing to do."

So she was going to die either way, damn, I hate to say it but I think that she would've preferred that to suffering a slow horrible death. "I guess you're right, I just wish we could've given her a way out of her situation in the end." I said with a sigh as I shook my head.

"Anyway Mr. Blaze, if you don't mind I think that we should get back to adjusting your collar so we can fix the power draw to your biotics." Dr Zorah stated and once again reminding me of what I needed to be done.

Both Cloey and Allen's ears perked up upon hearing that. "Wait, did she just say what I think she just said? Sense when are you a biotic?" Allen asked as he looked…well not so much as look as aimed his face in my general direction.

"Sense…well…now mostly, it happened after I got hit with that chunk of hyper eezo. Or did you not know about that?" It was clear to me that Cloey wouldn't have known but I almost would've thought that Allen would've.

He shook his head and said. "No, I guess I was out cold when that shit went down cuz I didn't hear about that at all let alone see it happen."

"Wait what's hyper eezo?" Cloey asked as she most likely hadn't heard about it yet.

"Long story short our favorite fainting goat Kyle created a new form of element zero that's five times stronger than the usual stuff, and it also made me into the most powerful biotic to date too, how cool is that?" I said sort of patting myself on the back.

"Yes, and this collar around his neck is supposed to help decrease his power until he can control it properly, but it seems to be working too well as it's drawing away all of his biotic energy instead of most of it, so I have to make a few adjustments to it." The doctor leaned over and began to work on my collar again, it didn't take her too long to fix it, I guess she figured out fast what the problem was. "There we go, it should work now, now try and lift that glass off the table over there." She pointed to a glass full of water on a table just a few feet from us on the opposite side of the room, I focused my mind on the glass and pulled it to me gently without spilling a drop.

Cloey just looked at me with awe. "Whoa, now that was pretty cool." She said sounding a little envious.

"I know right? I can't wait to have full control over it, having biotics is going to be so awesome, all though it already is in a few areas, I can guarantee that Alice approves of them too." I gave her a smirk coupled with a wink, she didn't know what I meant though as she just gave me a weird look.

"Well then, now that your biotics can pore through the collar a bit more I'll go inform agent Vonshah that she can continue your biotic training now, in the meantime the three of you can just catch up, I'll see you again for your next surgery soon Ms. White, Keela sahlye." The doctor walked out of the lounge, and as if on cue both my parents and my brother came into the lounge, Jacob was busying himself by eating an orange popsicle, his face was a big sticky mess.

"Honey you're making a mess, just use a napkin." Mom said as she tried to hand my brother a napkin from her purse, he just ignored her, he is just so stubborn sometimes.

"Why do you bother Carole? He never takes them and you know it." Dad pointed out the obvious, she just glared at him with a look that said shut up. "What? I'm just stating a fact."

She just rolled her eyes at him, Jacob then took notice of us sitting together and he ran over to me and hugged me. "High big brober." He said as he just squeezed me tight and taking care that he didn't get my fur all sticky with his popsicle, when he pulled away from his hug he took notice of my collar and asked. "What's that thing around your neck?" He pointed at it with a curious look on his face.

"Oh this thing? It's supposed to help keep my biotics under control so I don't hurt anyone, or make everything in the room start floating again." He quickly turned his attention toward Cloey and Allen.

Then his face lit up when he took one look at Cloey then said. "I know you, me and my brober and Alley all came to see you at the hospital."

Cloey just smiled at him then said. "Well that's very nice of you sweetie, I really appreciate it. So you got a name cutie?"

He grinned as he started to blush as he folded his paws behind his back, I was quick to make the introduction for him as he was taken in by the compliment a little too much. "Cloey White, I'd like you to meet my little brother Jacob Blaze."

"Well it's very nice to meet you Jacob, you are just the cutest little thing aren't you?" She said as she pinched his cheek, I don't think he liked it though as it was a hoof rather than a paw pinching his cheek, but then again he never liked it anyway.

"Hey, I thought I was the cutest thing you've ever seen cookie dough." Allen seemed a bit jealous that a four-year-old was getting all the attention.

"Oh stop pouting night howler, you know I'll always think you're the cutest guy in the galaxy." She said as she turned around and put her hooves on either side of his head then guided him in for a kiss.

"YUCK!" Jacob said as he saw the mushy sight, then he took notice of Allen's bandages then he turned and asked me. "Why does Allen have those bandages on his face?"

"Well he got hurt when we were out fighting to keep the colony safe, some mean lady just walked up behind us and shot him, but it's okay though, he got a new eye put in thanks to dad so he'll be just fine after he gets better." I replied calmly.

Without even thinking about it Jacob walked up to Allen and just hugged him while he was still locked in a kiss with Cloey, he stopped once he felt him hugging his side, then with a bit of confusion he asked him. "What are you doing?"

"I'm sorry you got hurt Allen, I hope you get better soon." Jacob said as he just held onto his leg.

Allen couldn't help but smile at my brother's compassion for him and his health. "Aww, that is just the sweetest thing." Cloey began to gush over my little brother's behavior.

I got the feeling that she might want a hug from him too so I quickly added. "You know Jacob, Cloey is still a little hurt from when she got shot, maybe you could give her a hug too? You know cause your such a nice guy." She gave me a thankful smile as he broke his hug from Allen and made his way over to her.

"Aww, now isn't that the cutest thing?" Mom remarked as she took a picture with her omni-tool. "It's good to see that your finally awake Cloey, how are you feeling?" Mom asked as she sat down on the couch next to Cloey in her wheel chair.

"Well my stomach still hurts a bit from my first surgery, first of many I'm afraid, but I'm otherwise okay. Speaking of which thank you so much for helping me get treatment for my scar tissue, I never thought I'd be able to go out for cheerleading again." She said with appreciation clear in her voice.

"Oh think nothing of it dear, Nee-nee was looking for someone to fix up with it and I recommended you once I heard about your condition on the news, of course that may have been a bit preemptive at the time but I had a good feeling you'd pull through. Also I figured that you would rather walk down the aisle rather than role down it in a wheel chair."

Cloey looked a bit shocked, then she looked over at Allen and asked. "Allen, what is she talking about?"

That's when my mom just chuckled a bit then announced plainly. "I meant when you're ready to get married sweetie, I promise you as far as I know Allen isn't thinking about asking you to marry him just yet."

"Yeah, definitely NOT thinking about that just yet no way not at all." Allen gave a very nervous chuckle coupled with an equally nervous grin, I wasn't sure but I had a feeling that mom might have accidentally exposed Allen for the sneaky wolf he is, which is an appropriate metaphor too given that he's my recon man.

Even though it would've been fun at my expense to see him sweat I chose to change the subject. "So mom, the doctor told me that you were a party animal in college, any truth to that tale?"

Dad looked at her with confusion. "What did he just say?"

She just laughed then stated. "That was a lifetime ago Josh, but I admit those were some of the best years of my life, even if some of the things I did in school were a bit questionable and a bit embarrassing, it was still a lot of fun to hang out with the girls and getting into trouble." She closed her eyes and just looked up at the ceiling, then she looked down at Jacob and added. "But that all changed after I became a mom and I had to grow up, and to be honest I don't regret it one bit because I'm the proud mother of two handsome young men, and one of them is going to be a speacture." I wasn't surprised that she knew about this, but when Jacob heard her say that he looked over at me and asked with a bit more surprise than needed. "You're gonna be a speacture?"

I rolled my eyes at mom before answering him. "It's not definite, but I am thinking about it."

I don't think he got the message though because he just started jumping up and down and cheering again much like when I told him I had biotics. "My brober's gonna be a speacture my brober's gonna be a speacture my brober's…"

"Whoa-whoa-whoa there peanut I haven't decided just yet, like I said I'm thinking about it, though I have gotten the support of someone I know and love very much if I do go for it."

Allen just started to snicker at his little nickname. "You call him peanut?"

Jacob quickly started to glare at him, even though Allen couldn't see his death ray look in his eyes it was clear Jacob didn't appreciate him laughing at him, or his nickname.

"Shut up butthead." He said with a clearly angry tone.

"Or what…peanut." Oh this will not end well.

"Don't. Call. Me. PEANUT!" As I expected the little maniac just lunged for Allen and unleashed all of hell's fury on him, clearly he didn't care that he was blindfolded.

"Ow, hey knock it off, what did I do? OW, STOP THAT!" Allen found out the hard way, you mess with my brother, you get an ass kicking.

"Don't call me peanut don't call me peanut don't call me peanut!" I finally chose to break it up.

"Okay buddy I think the butthead's had enough." I pulled Jacob away still thrashing about until he tired himself out.

Allen just started searching around for the wheel chair, once he found it he then asked. "What the heck did I do? Why did he just freak out on me?"

I just chuckled then said. "He doesn't like it when you call him peanut, he's only letting me call him that because I'm in the hospital, and I'm going to miss it when I leave, because I don't much like getting the crap beat out of me by a four-year-old."

"Well I think it's a very cute nickname." Cloey added as she looked down at him, he began to blush again, I guess he really liked her, and who could blame him, she was probably one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet.

"Ah-ha, there you are." A voice said from behind us, I turned around and saw a certain Asari speacture coming over to collect me. "Sorry kid but break time is over, we got to get back to your training now that you've got that collar now."

I shook my head and stood up. "Sorry guys but I have to get to it sooner rather than later, but I will catch up with you soon."

As Shakrimi and I began to leave Jacob quickly grabbed my paw and began to beg. "Can I go with you PLEASE." He looked excited to see what I could do.

I smile and ruffled the fur on the top of his head and said. "Well you sure can peanut, I would love for you to see me kick a bunch of dummies butts."

His face lit up with even more excitement as he just started cheering. "YAY I GET TO SEE MY BROBER KICK BUTT."

And so my training continued, and I just tore up those dummies, not literally this time thankfully, I learned so many different moves and attacks, the throw, the pull, the warp, the slam, the shockwave, the charge, and my personal favorite being the javelin, which as it sounds you throw it like you would a javelin and you throw it into your enemies with great accuracy, I personally like to take off the heads of my opponents for some reason, it's sort of satisfying. "Do it again Cody do it again." And apparently I'm not the only one who thinks so.

"Okay Jacob, one more time but that's it." I focused my power in my paw and let my biotics form into a javelin like form, then with an overhead throw it went flying and took off the head of the dummy leaving its body standing.

Shakrimi then stated as she clapped her hands slowly. "Well I'd say you've got that move down, especially sense you've killed all of my dummies, but hey at least you know what you're doing now." Jacob then walked over to Shakrimi and tugged on her sleeve, she looked down and asked. "Need something sweetie?"

"Can you teach me how to use biotics like my brober?" Part of me just wanted to laugh at how innocently clueless he was and another part felt bad for him because he didn't have biotics like me, and it only got worse when she knelt down to his level and looked him strait in the eye and said in the most sincere tone she could muster.

"I'm sorry sweetie but I'm afraid not everyone has this gift like your brother and me, some are lucky to be born with it while some get it completely by accident like your brother did, and believe me honey it's not worth the risk because your brother nearly died because of it, I'm sorry." He looked down at the ground, it was clear that he was sad he'd never become a biotic, so to cheer him up I did something I never thought I'd do. I got out my knife and told him to shoot a dummy with it, I know it wasn't my smartest move but he was upset, and I hate to see my brother upset, he took aim at one of the dummies and fired the blade right into the bullseye, he celebrated of course, and I had to admit I was proud of him too even if I chalked it up to luck, that is until he did it again, and again, and again, just hitting the bullseye over and over like it was nothing, who knew he was such a good shot.
