I immediately felt her push back. She was strong. I could feel it. A sharp pain began behind my eyes. She wasn’t alone, I could feel the presence of two other minds within hers. She was connected. I knew it instinctually.
I looked around the group and couldn’t believe how careless I had been. Two men were standing behind her. Their touch wasn’t noticeable, but it was there.
I smiled coldly at her as I felt the pressure increase in my head. She was trying to hypnotize me. “I see your two, and I’ll raise you two.”
“Jace, Jaxson, Drake, Lincoln, can you come here please,” I asked telepathically.
I felt them touch me within seconds. “Break the hold,” I insisted. I didn’t even bother to say it parapsychologically.
Once I noticed that her hold on them had been lifted, I looked over at the girl and her connections. She was dangerous. I would have to locate some halos and neutralize her threat immediately.
“We need to get some halos,” I said as I continued my hold on them.
“Or we can do this,” Kirk grimly stated from behind me.
I nearly jumped. I didn’t even realize he had walked up to us.
“Sleep,” he said as he held his hands out to them. Like ragdolls, they collapsed to the floor. “There. They should be out for at least
six hours,” he informed us.
“What the hell, happened?” Sherman, Kirk’s right-hand man cursed out somewhere in the room behind me.
“You were running around here clucking like a chicken,” Jaxson said with a straight face. “Texas was finally professing his love to Riggins. Fletcher had to bark like a dog every time he heard the word fetch. It was so bizarre. Then-”
I tried to keep a straight face as Jaxson spouted his lies.
“Fifth floor secured,” Ben sounded off in our headsets.
“Jax,” Jace sighed cutting his brother off. “Not now. We still have work to do. Does anyone need medical attention?”
“I think my shoulder was dislocated,” Paul grimaces standing up. “I’m delighted to see you guys.”
“Take my com,” Troy stated, looking at me and Jace. “You guys can communicate with me if there’s anything pertinent. Right now, we can send Paul and any other nonparticipating personnel to Greg so he can show them where the makeshift hospital is going to be set up.”
Troy removed his headset and handed it to Paul. “Greg will tell you where we’re located.”
Paul smiled his thanks. “Radio check,” Paul spoke into the mic.
“Lima Charlie, nice to hear from you again, Mr. Boss Man,” Darren chirped.
“Thanks for listening to me and not trying to play the hero” Paul smiled. “Now tell me where I’m going.”
Darren gave him the info and Paul grabbed a handful of people to go back with them.
“Ten minutes until they’re back up again,” Darren informed us. “They’ll have eyes and ears on us once more.”
“Not so fast, Nerd,” Jemmy stated with a smile in her voice. “I’m pretty sure I just bought us some more time. I hope that equipment in there wasn’t too expensive.”
“Please say you did not hurt Rhonda,” Darren groaned.
“Your obsession with that laptop is a little concerning,” Jemmy said matter of factly. “I expect a hug, a thank you, and your forgiveness when I see you again.”

We successfully cleared out the training room and set up a game plan to remove the rest of the opposition. We even cleared out two floors without any incidents. Our game plan was being executed flawlessly. I was lulled into a false sense of security.
The gifted that we were able to rescue was disseminated among the groups for maximum effectiveness. We now had an additional twelve people in our group, including Kirk and his connections.
