"Where am I," says a wild voice. The tone wasn't really questioning. Gruff from all the shouting "where's my sister.
A loud crash followed it as one nurse flies into a tray of medical tools. Thirteen helped him up using his telekinesis. But three more nurses fly out in quick succession. Hitting the ward lobby hard. Then a patient comes out to the lobby. He was wearing his own clothes since he wasn't actually a patient. His eyes were bloodshot from all the adrenaline in his bloodstream.
"Where am I?" Now the tone was more like asking.
"I think answering you will be pointless because you will forget about this when the adrenaline recedes." Thirteen said. He made a sideways flicking motion with his hand and the patient flies to the side and hits the wall hard.
Thirteen was expecting him to go unconscious. But it seemed that he has only angered the patient.
The patient, Gerardo, lunges at him.
Thirteen was so used to such cliche moves that it didn't even made him focus hard to deflect the oncoming attack. The patient hit the glass pane.
Thirteen hears a groan of pain and that was enough to tell him that all was clear. He turns to the nurse. "Please do tell me when he is stable and awake. What about his sister?"
"Awake sir." Says the nurse "and stable."
"Good," says Thirteen "I'll see her first."
The nurse led him to a hallway. Past several door leading to vacant rooms. The nurse stopped before a door at the end of the hallway.
"We had to separate them," explains the nurse "there's a high chance for them to synergize."
"It's fine." Thirteen opens the door with his telekinesis. After the incident with the brother he no longer trusts doors being opened slowly. "You may leave."
Thirteen went inside the room. The room was quite ordinary. Bare walls, curtained windows, small TV, and a stretcher with a young woman sitting on it. Looking at Thirteen suspiciously. "Hello," says Thirteen "my name is Thirteen." The woman still looks at him suspiciously.
Thirteen uses his telekinesis to bring a chair near him. That snaps the girl out of her suspicious daze. Thirteen sits on the chair and was about to say something when the woman beat him to it.
"I know what you are," says the woman "the government hasn't been very ignorant of what you do."
"Well," Thirteen said. "that saved a lot of trouble. Mind telling me what you actually know?"
"I know that this organization is studying human subjects. Abducting some." Started the woman. "You claim the existence of people with powers. Honestly, I thought that it was just crap but here you are in front of me."
Thirteen nods satisfactorily. "You know what this organization is in a nutshell." Thirteen said. "I hope you don't mind if you share that with the others. I'm a really lazy person."
"You came here to tell me that?" Asked the woman
"No," says Thirteen "I came here to tell you that I know a lot about you too. Your name for instance. Diana, right. And you have super speed and reflexes. Your brother just went ballistic."
"Where's my brother?" Megan asked
"He is fine now," Thirteen said. "but I have something else to talk to you about."
"What are we doing here, again?" Asks Miguel
"Thirteen said through the PA that we should assemble here." Tracy replied
