My eyes flickered from Amber to Jeremy in disbelief. They stood on the porch with a smug look and all I could do was to stare at them with my mouth open. Rather than screaming out in joy, my shoulders slumped down and I just moved out of their way, "Come in," I said in a controlled excited voice. Irony in my voice.

"Good, shall we," Diego jumped from behind Amber and almost gave me a heart attack. I gave out a chuckle as a side effect of the sudden beat of my heart. They entered my room and the doors slid shut. I looked at the three people who had became a lot to me in just a short span of time. I was in hot shots and my hair were messy from sleeping whereas they were neat at least their hair were.

I walked towards them and we ended up in a fierce group hug. I won't say I missed it because it was the first time the four of us shared a hug. At first it was a trio and now it was the four of us. Times can bring all of it and you will just keep staring at how it seemed so impossible at first. It seemed impossible to see Jer and Diego hugging each other let alone look at each other.

The hug lasted a moment longer than it should and we parted away. Woah, I never expected my emotions to flow like this. Never had I ever felt so emotional about friendship. It was always with Tessa and Mike and they never left my side to make me feel their absence. But this was different.

"So Captain Margaret, what are we supposed to do in here?" Jeremy said rubbing his hands as if to start some work right away. Jeremy seemed to have lost his fat and added muscle to his already muscular frame. It was all because of gym and extra sessions. I myself felt the growth of my bicep which was strange but it made me look stronger and confident.

"So let's begin." I clapped and rummaged through my shelf to draw out a chart that I prepared to make things clearer and specified. Other three after hearing some moving of things came on my sides to see the chart. It was like a map of the institute which was modified a day ago after I saw the wall.

The walls tended to change their type of charge but I wasn't sure. It was required for me to know it but saved it for later. I laid the chart on my desk and we hovered down at it. I quickly explained all the necessary things and places on it. Diego being less observant as he knew everything already. He had known the map as if he had mugged it up.

"So what do you want us to do?" Amber looked at me with determination filled in her eyes. I immensely appreciated her attitude and what she was willing to do for me. Jer was no less, both of them had turned up on me at a time but they had their own reasons and I did understand them.

"I will tell you everything but for now let me assign you for some other thing." I replied with happiness which was unfathomable since some days. Amber nodded and I rolled up the chart and kept it in a secure place.

Diego was already out of my room as he knew where I was gonna take them and Amber was on his heels. They started interacting within themselves. I winded up the stuff and Jeremy kept standing. "Jer, go, I will be coming," I said.

"Ya, just wanted to ask you something," He replied in a plain voice giving no clue about what was he feeling. So I told him to ask. "Are you perfectly sure about this?" He said in a voice that filled the emotions that lacked in his previous sentence.

I tapped his shoulder and smiled with full confidence, yet my heart wasn't with my smile, "I am. Totally." His expression hesitated to change but it did eventually and that spoke assurance. I imaginatively sighed and we both walked out of the room.
