Gifted

Chapter XVII: Arrival

*MYLES'S POV*

-We're here, New Earth!

I look around. Beautiful time, simply amazing to be able to see.

-So, we're in a completely different time?, Ashton asks.

-Yep. Different time, different planet.

I turn over to see Ashlee and Ashton, looking around.

-So this is New Earth? It's so nice!

-Yep. Now, where could we go for Ash's training?

-A gym, maybe? If this is a futuristic version of New York, there would be a gym on the corner of 3rd and 4th street.

-Okay..? I guess we'll go there, Ash says. How would you know tha- You know what, never mind, I don't wanna know. Let's go.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*ASH'S POV*

We get to the gym, which seems to be abandoned, Myles finally asks,:

-How did you know that there would be a gym here?

-You don't think I didn't have a Timelord friend before? Well, I did.

-Okay.. Why didn't you mention this before, exactly?, she asks, confused.

-Didn't want to start a big conversation. He's gone now, and I don't want to talk about it, he says as he pushes away some hair from his eyes, wiping away tears with it.

We find a free spot somewhere, which is easy since it's, y'know, empty, and finally (almost) start training.

-Hey Myles, do you have any other Sonic weapons? We might need to use them to fight later on.

-Um.. Yeah. I'll go get them. Ashton, could you help me, please?

He walks over, then walks in the TARDIS, leaving Jason and I alone.

-So.. Are you ready? To train? Since this is a big situation going on right now, and you might be a little stressed, and-

-Jason, if anything, you're getting a little stressed out. Calm down, I'll be fine, I promise, I say trying to calm him down a bit.

-Y-yeah.. Okay, I'll try to calm down. It's just that this came so fast, and I didn't know if I could train you enough.

-You can. You'll train me, and we'll all be fine. Nothing bad is gonna happen, I promise.

Then, all of a sudden, Jason decides to teleport away, almost in tears as he did.

-GUYS! Jason's gone!

Without them even knowing, I leave the gym, and set off to find him as fast as I can.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

-JASON! WHERE ARE YOU?!

After a few hours, maybe two or three, I finally find him, sitting at a pier. I go to talk to him.

-Jason?, I say as I sit next to him. Are you okay? Why did you go off like that?

Silence. For a few seconds, nothing happens, then he finally talks to me.

-It's just.. Something's gonna happen. I'm not psychic, but I just know. It's not gonna be good, and I don't want anything to happen to you.

-Nothing's gonna happen. Well all be fine, and life will be great from then. Now, we need to go and train, I say.

-Fine, he says, tearing up.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*ASHTON'S POV*

Jason and Ash walk into the gym. Thank god.

-Guys! Where did you go? I was so worried!, I say as I go up to hug them both.

-I sort of got emotional, and teleported away. Nothing to worry about, I swear.

It gets quiet, then Myles comes out with a few guns.

-Here they are. Shouldn't she be training her psychic powers though?, Myles asks Jason.

He stands there, looking as if he was an idiot, and then says,:

-Oh, yeah.. Wow, I got really dumb in these last few hours. Psychic, right. Oops.

Then we finally set up to train with the basics.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

*JASON'S POV*

I set up for her training, and then proceed to say,:

-Okay, let's train. First things first, we need to lay out the fact that we'll try to learn all of this in a few days, maybe a week, so don't get worked up like I did, okay?, I say, chucking at the end, although I didn't think it was funny.

-Okay. Now what do I do first? Wait, I remember.. Clearing my mind.

It gets quiet for about three or four seconds, then she snaps back.

-Okay, I'm good.

-Now, to try and pick up.. That chair over there, I say as I point in front of her to a chair a few feet away.

-Okay.

She focuses on the chair as much as she can, and then.. The chair lifts a teeny bit, maybe a few centimetres high. Then it falls.

-I did it! I actually did it!

-Yep. Now you'll try to lift something heavier every time.

-Okay. Let's do this.
