I swear I'm not ignoring this, NH. I've been in my Isaac Zone the last few days and I'm trying to crank out as much as I can while I have it. I
will read and review as soon as I get the next TFAD out the door.

That's okay. I'm just swamped right now myself getting things done. I love writing but I classify it as something to do for fun and to be done when I
have no work to get done. The next chapter will be up on either Friday or Saturday.

Author's Note: Hey sorry about the lengthy delay. Hope it doesn't happen again. Now onto the next chapter.
CHAPTER ELEVEN NEW YORK Amy felt a surge of deja vu as she sat in the hospital waiting room rubbing her hands as if trying to get the image of Gabriel bleeding out of her mind. She was still undecided about the group that had decided to travel with them including Mohinder. Sitting down far away from them Amy looked to see Claire just staring at the floor. Amy felt no real anger towards Claire, not with what Gabriel had done to her in the past but she still could not bear to think about it. To Amy's shock Matt walked over to her and sat down. "Look with what's happened tonight. I'm sorry." said Matt. "Your sorry?" said Amy the words sounding so bizarre on her tounge and it seemed to the final spark needed for her anger as she glared at him. "For what? Breaking into my house and attacking my best friend?" Amy snapped. "We only came because we believed that Sylar was going to join forces with someone powerful." said Matt. "Well looks like you've just batted zero. No one has approached Gabriel in days. No one even knew he was staying with me." said Amy. "How do we know that." said Mohinder getting up. "What did you say." said Amy looking at him. "Sylar is a monster. And for you to continue this whole charade of calling him Gabriel is getting quite tiresome. That is not a man or a victim. He is a parasite." said Mohinder. Everyone in the room remained silent and all jumped when Amy threw a punch colliding with Mohinder's jaw. "You will never ever say that in front of me again." shouted Amy. "You have no idea what your even talking about.". "He killed my father, that is all that I need to know." said Mohinder. "Your father. The man who I believe single handed brought Sylar into this world." said Amy. "My father is not responsible for creating that monster." said Mohinder. "Really. Did you know that Gabriel's dad died when he was thirteen. I met him when he turned fourteen and it was killing him. Not only did he have to deal with losing his father but he had a banshee of a mother who would not stop screeching. Every good grade or project he did well in she said was not good enough. She made Gabriel hear all that garbage about being somebody. A special man who could do anything. But he forced it down and lived as he wanted. Then your father, Chandra Suresh comes into his shop and offers Gabriel the keys to those lies. But in the end Chandra's test's could not detect how Gabriel's ability worked and decided to cut him off. Oh I will admit that Gabriel did become a killer but the desire was originally started by your precious father." shouted Amy making the words Chandra and father sound like curses. Mohinder just stared into Amy's face rubbing his cheek where the fist had connected. "I don't have to stand and hear this." said Mohinder. "I have no real reason to even be here. I hope Sylar dies.". Mohinder then stormed out of the room while Amy was still shaking with anger for once wishing that she had Gabriel's telekinetic power so that she could rip the man's head off. However Amy was taken off guard when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Turning Amy stared into Claire's tear filled eyes. "I'm sorry." said Claire. "I shouldn't have shot him.". "No. It's okay Claire." said Amy taking Claire's hand. "You believed that we were in danger and did something to save us. I might have done the same thing if I were in your place.". "You said you knew Sylar, I mean Gabriel when he was a teenager correct." said Niki. "Yes." said Amy shaking her head. "What was he like?" asked Niki. "It's hard to explain right now." said Amy. "Then why don't you show us." said Noah. "You did it before.". "No that was only because I used Matt's abilitiy to broadcast mine. I've never even attempted it. I was lucky it even worked." said Amy. "Well it worked once you can do it again." said Hiro with a smile. "Only if Matt gives me permission to do it." said Amy. Matt got up and nodded. "I agree. I'll help. What do I need to do?" asked Matt. "Just relax." said Amy as she placed her hands on Matt's temples and closed her eyes in concentration. This time it was much easier to tie their abilitieis together. Amy opened her eyes and smiled at the street they were standing on. "Where are we now?" asked Kaito overlooking everything. "Were close to an alleyway. Come on I'll show you." said Amy as she lead the way down the alley to an old building. "They tore this down after me and Gabriel graduated. But before that this was our clubhouse." Amy's eye's had a light in them remembering those days as she opened the door and lead them inside. "Kinda dirty." said Zack as he looked around. "That's what gave it charm." said Amy smirking allowing herself to get lost in the memory. Matt was looking at Amy shocked that he could feel everything from her as she was feeling this. However there powers were combining he seemed to be able to sense everything in her mind. "Oh come on Amy. I'm never going to get this." shouted a voice as they walked into a room. Inside was a boy and girl, the boy had jet black hair that hung in his eyes and wore glasses and a cardigan. The girl's hair was huge with volume and curles as she was wearing a jean jacket, bright pink shirt and jeans. "Wow." said Claire looked at the younger Amy. "It was the eighties everyone had big hair." defended Amy cringing at it. No wonder her hair was so difficult back then. She was sure that she probably helped in the death of the ozone. "Gabriel I'm not going to listen to it. You are going to pass French class even if it puts me in my grave." said Amy. "But Amy. We've been going at this for hours. Can't we do anything else." pouted Gabriel trying to get out of the studying. "No way not a chance. You are going to become so fluent in French that your going to want to move to Paris." said Amy. "Yeah like that's going to happen. That's right up there with you becoming a model." said Gabriel. Amy just stuck out her tounge. "My mom said she had the same thing. I may be an ugly duckling now but she says I'll become a swan." said Amy. "Yeah and I'm going to be someone special." said Gabriel rolling his eyes. Amy just stopped and looked at Gabriel feeling her heart crushed while the older one felt the same pang. "But I think your special." said Amy. Gabriel looked up from his book and smiled. "You do." said Gabriel his face blushing. "Yeah your my best friend of course I'm going to think your special." said Amy. "Now enough stalling get back to work." said Amy tapping her pencil on his book. "Fine." said Gabriel giving up only to have everything freeze. "He never did pass that class. He joked about getting me a coffin." said Amy. "So your trying to save him. Bring him back to this?" asked Niki. "No he's done to much to ever go back to this. What he needs is to actually cope with this and leave Sylar behind." said Amy. "You have chosen a very hard road to travel." said Hiro. "And I would travel it more than once just to help him." said Amy. "We should head back. The doctor should be coming any minute.". Okay thats it. I hope this was worth the wait. Tell me what you think.

Definitely worth the wait.
I love this story. Can't wait for more. You're great at bringing out the emotion of the scene, something that's not always easy. It's fairly simple to describe the emotion- it's much harder to get your reader to experience it. And you've done that wonderfully. Another excellent chapter. ![]()

Sorry about the delay everyone. My computer is busted and even though I live near a library my mom is in town and I have been wanting to spend time with her. I
don't see her that much and my brother and sister are graduating college tomorrow. I promise you that Chapter twelve will be written on this coming Monday.
I give you my word. Plus all this free time has helped me work on the story a little bit better.

Author's Note: Alright everyone sorry about the delay. I promise not to take so long in the future. Now this chapter takes place three days after chapter
eleven. Enjoy.
CHAPTER TWELVE NEW YORK "I still don't understand why we are letting Sylar go." said Mohinder as he looked at Noah and Kaito. The three men were now in Kirby Plaza in a building that was very familiar to Mohinder since it had been once owned by the Company. "Because at the moment Sylar seems real about wanting to stop being Sylar." said Noah. "Impossible. The man is nothing more than a parasite." said Mohinder as he looked around the building that would soon be his lab. "He could still go after Claire.". "And if he does I will make sure he dies. But until then we are leaving him alone." said Noah. For him at least things were looking up. With the new Company being built in New York which meant he no longer had to hide, Sandra and Lyle would be coming to New York in three days and Claire and Zach were at the moment exploring New York. Noah also knew that Claire would want to speak with her birth father Nathan and want to be apart of his family and Noah held no real grudges. No for Noah this was a freash start and nothing was going to make him screw this chance up. "I still don't see why you want Matt and Nathan to keep their jobs if they both agree to work with us." said Mohinder looking at Kaito. "It is never wrong to have a ally in the police force and in law firms. It gives us a leverage if we need to go into places that only they could go." said Kaito. "And Hiro is in Japan to collect his sister so that the whole Nakimura clan can help operate things here." said Noah. "With you being in charge of the field work of course." said Kaito. "And I will continue my reasearch well funded. In all everything has at least turned out slightly well." said Mohinder. "Now our only concern is Adam and his forces." said Kaito. "Yeah that will have to wait until we get ourselves operational. Otherwise we can't do anything." said Noah. The three men agreed silently and they all went back to work getting the building ready. NEW YORK "I still can't believe were here." said Zach as he walked along with Claire. "Yeah. The last time I was here everything was so rushed that I barely had time to see anything." said Claire as she sat down and she and Zach started in on their ice cream cones. "So what are you going to do about your parents?" asked Claire. "Nothing really. I mean lets face it we were never really that close and I've had my cell phone with me and they haven't called me yet. Maybe it's better this way. I just can't believe I still have the same power as your bio-dad's." said Zach. "Well no offense there can't be that many special powers in the world. For all I know there are a few other people who jump off cliff's and live." said Claire. "True." said Zach taking a bite of his. "So is that our next stop going to see Nathan?". "Not really sure. I mean maybe. It's just the last time I saw him he was with my uncle and he's gone." said Claire sadly. "Yeah I really wish I could have met him." said Zach. "But still he does know your in New York right?". "No." said Claire shrugging. "Well then you have just made it easy." said Zach getting up grabbing Claire's hand. "What are we doing?" asked Claire. "Were going to duck into a building and fly there." said Zach. "Zach we can't fly there it's in the middle of the day. And New York has I don't know a hundered different ways to travel." said Claire stopping Zach from moving. "Oh yeah. You want to get a cab, a bus or a subway in New York city with agressive people and frequent traffic jams." said Zach arching an eyebrow. "Well it's peaceful at traffic jams." said Claire weekly. "Okay yeah. Now were flying." said Zach as he took Claire's hand and started to lead her out of the park. "Gabriel can you explain to me again why you need blank canvess?" asked Amy as she set one down to go with the many on her floor. "Well I feel like I need to test some of my powers out. Get a better control over them. And like you said try and remember each victim. Well this is the only way I can. So I'm using Issac's power to give me a little direcetion." said Gabriel. "Yeah well just as long as I don't need to go to the hospital again." said Amy. "Okay the first time I will admit was my fault. But the second time wasn't." said Gabriel. "Gabriel those people thought you were going to kill them. You can't blame them for your actions." said Amy. "You blame Chandra." pointed out Gabriel. "Well. It's different for me." said Amy while Gabriel just rolled his eyes. "Anyway I need to get some paper work done. I'll bring home dinner.". "Pizza?" asked Gabriel. "Yes pizza." sighed Amy as she grabbed her purse and left. Gabriel just laughed as he took his paint brush and some paint and looked at the canvasses. Feeling a surge of energy go through him his eyes began to cloud over as he began to paint. "Claire it is a pleasure to finally meet you." said Heidi as she walked in with Claire's iced tea and Zach's root beer. "Well I was just in the neighborhood and decided to pop by." said Claire silently. Zach and Heidi both exchanged glances and looked at Claire and Nathan who were both hugely uncomfortable being in the same room. "Zach. I could use some help in the kitchen if you don't mind." said Heidi. "Oh I'd love to." said Zach jumping up and following Heidi. "Zach." said Claire as he left before looking at Nathan. "So." said Nathan. "Yeah." said Claire both not really sure what to say. "I'm sorry. For letting my mom control everything. And I'm sorry about hurting you." said Nathan rubbing a hand through his hair. "No there's nothing to be sorry about. I mean your mom is really good at twisting things. She almost had me." said Claire twirling her hair nervously. "So you and your family are moving to New York?" asked Nathan. "Yeah. I guess that means I could stop by every now and then." said Claire. "Heidi would love that. I think she want's to adopt you." said Nathan. "That wouldn't be so bad." said Claire giving Nathan a smile. The air was still thick with tension but it was fading slowly. A knock on the door brought both Claire and Nathan to there feet. "Who's that? Were you expecting someone?" asked Claire. "Not to my knowledge." said Nathan as he headed towards the door, Claire behind him. Reaching the door Nathan opened it and felt his legs almost give out from under him and Claire gasped. "What is this a bad time?" asked Peter grinning with Hana and Claude behind him. Gabriel shock his head as he started to awaken from his trance. Rubbing his eyes Gabriel grabbed his glasses and looked at the painting he had completed and froze. "Peter Petrelli?" asked Gabriel as he looked at himself and Peter in what looked to be a fight. "No." said Gabriel as he looked at another portrait that showed a house with Peter and two others walking towards it. Looking at the clock he saw that it had been at least three hours since he had gone under the trance. "Is this my future?" asked Gabriel his mind whirling. Peter had a power to absorb other powers. Gabriel looking at the painting again had a thought cross his mind. Maybe Peter had to die in order for Sylar to die. With Peter's power he would never need to kill again and that would stop Sylar. Gabriel would be free. Taking off his glasses he grabbed his jacket and walked out of the door. Leaving the last painting unseen of a beautiful woman of Mexican decent standing clutching her head as black tears fell and a little girl was on the ground with black tears also falling. Okay that was Chapter Twelve. Hope you enjoyed and guess what will happen in the next chapter. You guessed right it will be Peter vs. Gabriel (not Sylar) and what about the third painting? Hmm guess your going to have to wait and see.

Damn...
Excellent new chapter... So Gabriel thinks he needs to kill one more time in order for Sylar to die? The terrifying part is I can easily follow that logic. And...you're bringing Maya in now. Is that girl Molly? Can't wait for more. ![]()

Author's Note: Thanks for the reviews. And you will not believe how this chapter will go. Hope this is to everyone's likeing.
CHAPTER THIRTEEN "So you can control your powers?" asked Claire as she finished probably her third or forth glass of iced tea. "Yeah pretty much. I've even learned how block it so I don't absorb powers unless I want to." said Peter. "Even your radioactive powers are under control?" asked Nathan through guarded eyes. "Yes even that one. I can safely tell everyone that I will not be going nuclear any time soon." said Peter. "It will be a change from all that crying you do." said Claude as he rolled his eyes. "Well maybe if you hadn't left me when I was still unstable I would have never lost control to begin with." said Peter. "Why does it always come back to me?" asked Claude as he merely shock his head. "Yeah well all of that is in the past now." said Claire. "Your home and nothing can change that.". "Not exactly." said Hana. "We only came here because we intercepted some transmissions that indicated that Adam was going to strike in New York in some way.". "And Petey overhere would not stop whinning until we came and saw his precious family." said Claude. "Adam. Heidi told me about him a few days ago. Our mother seemed stressed that he had escaped." said Nathan. "And right she should be." said Claude. "Adam helped create the Company and found the people he felt would give him control of changing things. They betrayed him and Adam has never taken betrayl well.". "So were all in danger." said Claire shaking her head. "Great what else could happen.". As if a curse had been uttered Claire, Nathan, Claude and Hana were all lifted from there seats and pinned against the walls. "Peter." shouted Claude as the fire pokers from the fire place flew out and warped binding each of the four against the wall. Pinning them to it without really hurting them. "I'm not doing this." said Peter alarmed as he got up. "No but I am." said Gabriel walking out of the shadows and looking at Peter. "Sylar." said Peter stunned. "No. Gabriel." said Gabriel and Peter went flying through a wall. "What's going on." shouted Heidi as she and Zach ran into the room only to be pinned by the furniture in the room. "This doesn't concern you. This is between me and him." said Gabriel staring down Peter his whole body shaking. "Sorry I'm late Gabriel." said Amy as she walked into the house. "I lost track of time and..." Amy froze when she stared at the painting of Gabriel and whom she believed was Peter only his hair was a lot shorter. "Gabriel no." said Amy as she studied the portrait her heart slowly breaking. Looking at the second painting she saw the adress as well as what house she felt Gabriel would be going to. Dropping the pizza and grabbing her purse Amy ran out of the room. In her mind only one thought was racing. She hoped that she was not to late. Peter slammed into another wall as he picked himself up and looked at Sylar or now as he was calling himself Gabriel. "What do you want?" demanded Peter. "I want what you have Peter." said Gabriel. 'It's the only way to end this. I don't have any other choice.'. "No other choice." said Peter. This seemed to make Gabriel even angrier as he held out his hand and released a wave of radiation hitting Peter. His skin repairing itself Peter stood and looked at Gabriel. "Not this time." said Peter as he looked at Gabriel and he went flying into a wall before turing invisible. "You've already tried this trick Peter." said Gabriel as he lifted the debry. "It didn't work so well then either." and with that the pieces flew off in hundreds of directions only to see a weird rippling in the air. "What." said Gabriel shocked before he felt something ram into his face and send him crashing to the ground as Peter reappeared. "I've picked up a few new tricks." said Peter as he grabbed Gabriel and forced him against a wall. "I know you don't want to fight me. So why are you doing this?". "I have to. To be free." shouted Gabriel as he grabbed Peter's arms' with his hands as they became coated with an icy sheen. Peter gasped as he felt the warmth instantly vanish from his arms and he released Gabriel to the ground. Gabriel placed his hand on the ground sending a current of ice to Peter freezing his feet in place. Peter screamed out from the icy pain as Gabriel got up to his feet. "So Molly what do you want for dinner tonight?" asked Mohinder looking at his young ward. "Anything as long as it's not pizza." said Molly. "What's wrong with pizza?" asked Matt. "We've had it for the past three nights." said Molly. "You have." said Mohinder looking at Matt who shrugged. "What can I say. I'm a horrible cook." said Matt. "Yeah how he's survivied on his own is a miracle." said Molly as she took out her key and opened the front door and froze. "No.". "Molly." said Mohinder as he looked to see a man standing in there living room. "Who are you." Mohinder demanded. "Dad." said Matt in shock looking at the man. "The nightmare man." said Molly as she was shaking. "Well Matt this is a surprise. I was sent here to make sure that little girl couldn't find me and I find you." said Maury looking at his son. "I won't let you harm Molly." said Matt in a low growl. "Sorry not going to happen." said Maury as he opened his mind and entered into there's. Mohinder collapsed first the bag of groceries he carried strown all over the floor. Molly tried to run but collapsed in the hallway next to her bedroom. Matt fell to his knees as his own power tried to fight back and break his father's hold. "Not strong enough son." said Maury as Matt to fell uncouncious locked in a nightmare. "I can not believe we are finally here." said Maya as she looked at Alejandro who was also smiling. "Yes we've been traveling for days." said Alejandro as he parked the car in front of Mohinder's building. "Now it says that Chandra Suresh resides on the eighth floor in apartment 2012." said Maya as she smiled. "Come on." and with that Maya took off. "Maya." called Alejandro shocked at his sister's sudden happiness and began to run after her. Bounding up the stairs to excited to actually wait for an elevator Maya felt tears, clear tears fall down her face as she made her way to the door, not even noticing that the door was slightly opened. "Dr. Suresh." said Maya as she opened the door looking to see three people uncouncious. "Maya." called Alejandro as he caught up to her and froze. "What did you do." Alejandro said in shock as he went over to an dark skinned man and checked his pulse. "I did not do this." said Maya as she walked over to the girl. "Who could have done this?" asked Maya only to hear something crash to the floor and turn. "Alejandro." shouted Maya looking up to see a man standing over him. "I don't know why your here but you have made a big mistake." said Maury as he looked at Maya. 'Now Maya show me what really scares you.'. Maya froze from the voice in her head before turning to a mirror and her whole body began to shake. "No." shouted Maya as she stared at herself only to have her eyes black and running more violently with black tears, but it was also coming from her nose, ears and mouth. Fear gripped Maya as she felt it, her disease start to pour out of her. "No." shouted Maury. "What are you?". Maury however couldn't say anything else as he collapsed his eyes blackening with tears begining to fall, along with Matt, Mohinder and Molly who all had black tears falling from there eyes. Gabriel gasped for breath as she stumbled back. "What are you doing." Gabriel gasped weakly before falling his eyes covered in black. Peter himself started to feel the effects before he gasped deeply his breathing normal. "Peter!" shouted Claire in panic as Peter phased through the ice and walked back to the living room. "What's happening Peter?" shouted Claire her eye's full of tears as everyone was collapsing there eyes black. "What's happening?" screamed Claire frantically as Peter only stood frozen. Outside the door of the Petrelli mansion Amy was laying on the ground her eyes blackening as she tried to stay awake. Okay that was the latest chapter. I hope you all enjoyed it. And for how Maya could be affecting people in the Petrelli mansion well I'm taking a little creative measures. Remember in one episode Maya decimated a villiage so I'm just working it out like that.

Author's Note: Thanks for the compliments everyone. Like I said I had already had another idea for the second season but since the second season was so
good I decided to incorporate some of the things I had liked and it turned out to make this story better. Don't worry though I still have a few tricks left
in this story.

Author's Note: Thanks for a moment I thought I was going overboard with the amount of emotion I was putting in. However if you thought the last chapter
held surprises wait until you read this one. I hope you just don't die from shock.
CHAPTER FIFTEEN "Where am I?" asked Amy as she blinked her mind foggy. "Your at my brother Nathan's house. You kinda went into shock for a bit." said Peter as he helped Amy sit up. Amy nodded before her eyes went wide. "Gabriel." shouted Amy as she tried to jump off the couch except Peter held her in place. "He's fine. I sent Claire to take him upstairs so that he can get himself cleaned up." said Peter. "Where's everyone else?" asked Amy looking around. "Nathan and Heidi decided to pick up pizza and try to get Heidi relaxed. Hana, Claude and Zach are all picking up the battle site although Nathan is going to need a contractor if he wants to fix the repairs that Gabriel caused." said Peter with a smirk. "Wait your calling him Gabriel? Why not Sylar?" asked Amy looking at Peter. "Zach told me everything. Pretty impressive power by the way. But anyway Zach told me that your trying to fix Gabriel's head and with the way he was fighting me I kinda didn't need to read his mind to know that he really didn't to do this." said Peter. Amy just closed her eyes in relife before another memory settled in. "Oh God. I told Gabriel I loved him." said Amy as she felt her stomach drop. "Actually I think that's what got him to snap out of it." said Peter as he chuckled. "By the way that's a myth. Psychologists don't fix minds. What we try to do is to get people to understand what is going on and help them make very good life choices." said Amy. "Hey I get it." said Peter. "Don't worry about it thought. Gabriel cares about you the same way. He's just in shock that you could love him. I think he believes he's beyond anyone loving him.". "If only that were true." said Amy. "Can I get off this couch now?". "Sure." said Peter taking her hand and helping her up. "Ow." shouted Gabriel as he flinched. Claire just rolled her eyes in disbelife. "I don't believe it. You have killed countless people and you cringe when someone is trying to clean your cuts." said Claire. Gabriel just shot her a look. "I just don't like it okay. I never did." said Gabriel as he looked at himself in the mirror. He was already starting to get a bruise on his chin where Peter had hit him and with the way his back was feeling he was going to hate getting up in the morning. "Well look at the bright side. Were not in the hospital. Again." said Claire. "You know I don't blame you for shooting me." said Gabriel. "If roles were reversed I would have done the same.". Claire just nodded. "There is something I want to know though." said Claire. "Okay?" said Gabriel confused. "Why did you do this? I mean not today, but why at all?" asked Claire. Gabriel closed his eyes. "It kinda started a while back. Chandra Suresh, Mohinder's father came into my clock shop and said I was on his list." said Gabriel. "He told me I was special and he wanted me to be his patient zero. But I registered low on his tests. And I guess I just wanted someone to take me seriously and my power allows me to see how things work and I can adapt it. I guess I just didn't want to feel like I was nothing.". Claire nodded, in some way it did seem reverse to what had occured to her wanting to be normal after discovering her power. For Gabriel it was just to be special for someone to say that he was more than normal. "Okay. What did it feel like? You know when you stole a power?" asked Claire. "It was a rush. I could feel it just coursing through me and I wanted to use it as my own so bad. I just couldn't believe how incredible these powers were but it didn't fill anything. I just wanted more." said Gabriel as he looked out. "What?" asked Claire looking to the door. "Amy's awake and she's talking to Peter." said Gabriel. "How do you know that?" asked Claire. "One of my powers is advanced hearing. Trust me this power was a nightmare every sound was like a knife through my head." said Gabriel. "Wow." said Claire. Claire's cell phone then rang and she picked it up. "Hello." said Claire before her face gained a worried look. "Wait what are you saying?". "Okay I'll be right there." said Claire as she hung up. She looked at Gabriel who was looking at her. "You heard that." said Claire giving him a slight glare. "Yeah but it sounds serious we should go." said Gabriel. "We?" asked Claire. "I need to make up for what I've done." said Gabriel. Claire just shock her head it was still odd to see Gabriel acting like this. She would have been slightly more comfortable with the homicidle killer that he used to be. "Okay lets get the others." said Claire as she and Gabriel left the room heading back downstairs. KIRBY PLAZA "Are you sure that this place will help me?" asked Maya as she, Alejandro, Matt, Molly and Mohinder all walked into the building. "Yes. My lab is the best place to learn more about your ability and a possible way to help treat it." said Mohinder. Inside he did feel that he owed this woman, if not for her then they would have been trapped in whatever nightmare Matt's father had placed them under. Looking at Matt Mohinder could see the struggle the man was going through. To discover that his father was working for Adam was troubling and that he had been sent to take Molly out was even more disturbing. Molly herself could not stop looking at the ground as they walked into the building. Maya had stayed close to her and was comforting the girl and Mohinder had to smile at how Molly was taking to her. Alejandro just stood next to his sister, since he knew nothing of english Maya had to translate for all of them. Getting into the elevator Mohinder hoped that Hiro and Niki would be back soon after collecting there families. With Adam being so close it made Mohinder not like the fact that the only people who had powers that were useful were Matt and whatever Kaito could do. Maya's powers were to unstable and having Hiro and Niki would have made things easier. Exiting the elevator Mohinder paused as he saw Matt freeze with a look on his face. "We have company." said Matt. "Is it the nightmare man?" asked Molly scared. "No. It's two other people. There talking with Kaito and Noah now." said Matt. "Should we be worried?" asked Maya as she looked at Matt. "I'm not sure. One of them I could say no. But the other, that mind is filled with twisted thoughts." said Matt. Mohinder hearing enough walked into the room and paused. "Mohinder." said Noah as he acknowledged the doctor. "I'm afraid we have some bad news.". "And I believe I may have even worse news." said Mohinder looking to where Kaito stood along with two others. "Yeah but it seems like things are changing more than we thought." said Noah. "Mohinder let me introduce you to Candice and Elle. All that remain of the old Company.". The blond woman Elle just looked at Mohinder as he noticed the blue sparks that shot between her fingers. "Nice to meet you." said Elle as she gave a devious smile. Okay everyone I hope that you enjoyed this tale. Later today I may write Chapter sixteen you be ready for a double shot. And yes I am aware that I have a lot of characters. Don't worry I planned this story very well so that I could handle this many people and who knows I might kill some off. Its my story after all. Hope you enjoy this chapter.
