Chapter 4.
As Joe left the room he could hear Chase's infamous "I'm royally ticked off because I don't know what's happening, so maybe if I talk load enough I will understand" voice.
"So doc, now that Chase is in the clear, what about me?" Joe asked. "Well, you have an abnormal ENG count and your brain waves are pulsing twice as fast as is healthy. If you keep away from power lines and keep your stress levels down you should recover within 2 months." "2 MONTHS!" Joe yelled. "WHY SO LONG?!" because the fact that you can see that girl in there means that you are Psi sensitive. She is a Psicon and she is clocking herself from every one that doesn't already know shes here. Psi sensitive people can still see them however.
You can undergo a procedure to keep your psi sight, but it's not without risks. All psi abilities carry the risk of mental instability. But if you keep it you may develop psiconicly. I only now all this because Katie did some sort of information transfer straight into my brain."
"I'll… have to think about it. How long do I have to decide?" Joe asked, barely audibly. "I can't say for sure but I'd say three days. The electric shock awakened your psiconic potential. The recovery process may put it to sleep again, maybe permanently." "thank you doc. I'm going to get some rest. Can you wake me up when Chase is ready to go?"
"Ok so let me get this straight. Your name is Katie Brigan. You are a psiconic solider. You where using that, scratch that, MY old Game Master unit as a memory backup for your mind, and last but not least my body is now conducting electricity from the blast? I have to ask, WHAT THE SAM HELL ARE YOU THINKING?! DO YOU RELIZE THAT I AM JUST A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT?"
Chase was in a flurry of rage, confusion and Curses. "Please calm down. I didn't mean to cause any harm. It's just that there are only 14 materials that conduct mental energy: Silicon, Platinum, Titanium, Cobalt, tungsten, ura-" "SO WHAT?!" Chase interrupted. "So if a psicon doesn't have a backup and a psi power overwhelms him or her, they die as a person. Leaving a soulless corpse to rot for eternity." Katie finished sadly. "Oh I see… Wait a minute! Are you saying that if I use a power I don't know I have and can't handle, I'm screwed like the middle class?" chase ask, looking very alarmed. "Afraid so kid." Katie replied, looking thoughtfully around the room. "Oh that's just brilliant! JUST F-" "I can help you though, if you let me." Katie said almost seductively. "What do you mean?" Chase painfully asked trying to stand.
Katie didn't get a chance to answer as Joe burst into the room, a dark look on his face. "I just heard on the sat-a-link that 2 shivan bombers are raiding Gierova's south highway. We got to find a shelter." "Why?" Katie asked confusion clearly visible. The two humans stared at her for a few seconds. "Oh I get it. You think the bombers will blowup the car. Don't worry. I'll take care of the bombs you just drive us back to wherever Chase lives. "and if you can't?" Joe asked, staring at her like she had just told them, that she was god. "I said don't worry! Besides, Chase will be helping me." She grinned slyly. "I will?" gulped Chase.
