We all rushed down to the car and after a few minutes we arrived at the mission.
I went to open the door, but Jesse had already opened it for both CeeCee and me. He's so sweat. "You know you don't have to do that," I told him.
"Querida what kind of person would I be if I didn't hold doors open for ladies?" Jesse said. The sad thing is he wasn't being sarcastic.
"A normal one," I heard Adam mumble. Why cant they just get along?
CeeCee punched his arm, "I think it's cute," she said. Adam seemed to take notice of this and rushed to open the door to the building for her.
We walked into Father Dom's office where he was sitting at his desk reading some papers.
"Padre," Jesse said
"Yes Jesse? I was just going over the-" Father D. looked up and noticed CeeCee and Adam. "Oh um well-" He said trying to make up a reason to be talking to something nobody could see.
"Father Dominic," I said, "First off I told them, and second well, Jesse's alive."
"What?" father Dom got up and walked over to Jesse. "Well it appears you're right" he said after a few minutes. He then turned to me, "What did you do?
"Don't look at me, "I said, "Ask Adam."
"Adam?" Father D. looked surprised. I just nodded at him and he turned to Adam.
"I've always been a freak. I've been able to do weird things all my life," Adam said." But I've never done anything like this before. Usually ghosts just disappear when I'm around them. I can't help it. They be standing there talking to me and then poof they're gone and I never see them again," Adam turned to me, "That's why I was trying to get Jesse to leave."
Father Dom looked back at his book shelf behind his desk. He searched the titles for a few moments before pulling out a very old looking book. "He we are," he said opening the book to the index. "Allasso, Allasso," he mumbled to himself. "Here!" he said and started reading.
(a/n none of this is actually base of Greek mythology I'm completely making it up) " The word Allasso in Ancient Greek means Change. It is said that those with the gift of Allasso were hand chosen by the immortal fates to fix problems they may have not foreseen.
"It is believed that they have the ability to change the fate of those around them. This power includes the ability to send ghost on to their next life or return them to the realm of the living. They also have abilities such as telekinesis and the capability to read minds.
'Though their numbers appear to have been approximately 50,000 during the time of Ancient Greece their numbers didn't not seem to uphold. It is believed that roughly 50 Allasso still exits today…"
"Hear that Adam? You're living proof of Greek Mythology!" CeeCee exclaimed.
"Yes well," Father Dom said, "I think now that we know about this you should meet me after school once a week so that I may teach you how to use your powers."
"Father Dom," I said, "Your not one of those…whatever it's called are you?"
"No, no, I just happen to be a big fan of Mythology and have many books on Allassos," he replied. "Now that that's covered we need to get Jesse a play to stay, and basically a life. Adam can you do me a favor?" Adam nodded and walked over to him. Father Dom pulled out another book. "Can you just read this? Where it says name put in Jesse's"
"μπορώ this άντραs Jesse μεγαλώνω νεότερος από δύο χρόνια" Adam said (a/n I couldn't find it w/ our characters.)
I looked over at Jesse and saw that he now looked no older than 18.
"It will be easier if Jesse is young enough to be in high school. That way we can get him his high school diploma and some grades behind it before going to college," Father Dom explained. "Now Jesse, you still need a place to stay. I would have you stay here at the mission, but I don't believe the nun's would like that so we'll have to think of something else."
"Jake moved out we have an extra room now," I said, "he can stay at my house. If my parents say it's ok."
"I'm not so sure that's a goo-" Father Dominic started but I cut him off.
"Nobody else can take him, and he's been living in my room for until recently. He wont even be in my room he'll be way down the hall."
"Fine, fine, I'll just call your parents."
Father D. then called my mom. "Hello Mrs. Ackerman, it's Father Dominic from the Mission--- No, I know Susannah isn't home, she's here actually.--- I'm calling to ask a favor---Well you see a boy from RSL was recently kicked out of his home.-- No I assure you he's a good kid. He's rather close with Susannah.---Oh a few months---I introduced them.---Anyway He needs a place to stay and he cant stay at the Mission. Susannah kindly offered up Jake's old room as long as it's ok with you. ---. Good. Thank you--- No I have enrolled him here at the Mission---No I will pay for it.—Don't worry about it-- Ok thank you again. I'll send Susannah and him home right away"
"Your mother agreed." He said after hanging up. "She also wanted me to tell you dinner's almost ready so you two better get home. "
"Come on Adam I need to get home. It's time for Jesse to meet my parents," I said walking out the door
