Janelle POV...

Gambi: Have you gotten any sleep?

I look at him and shake my head.

Me:Nah... Gambi what trials have you tested because I'm seriously losing my mind! I can't even concentrate long enough to do my hair! I sholl can't sit down long enough to get it done!

I scrub my eyes and sit back, I look at the tattoo on my arm, this damn train.

"Let me out, I'll make this so much easier for you, let the madness run wild!"

Shut up.

"You know what you saw, you aren't crazy, he's alive, the ASA dug up your dead boyfriend and made him into some weird fighting machine. A fine one too."

I shake my head and put it down, my nerves are completely shot at this point. I need to let this out but after the Occupation they cracked down on the fights, I can't run as freely as I used to because it's some dumbass man or woman with a gun aiming at me asking to see my ID.

God it's hot in here.

Me:Aren't you hot?

Gambi:No... Are you sure you're alright? You need to talk to your father.

Me:No* standing up* Gambi I swear on everything if you tell my dad I will never tell you anything else and you're the only person I trust right now... I don't know, can my powers malfunction?

Gambi:No, well not yours anyway, even if they did they should have been acting up when you didn't have a working heart. Why do you ask that?

Me:I don't know... But I just know something isn't going right, maybe it's me not working out finally getting to me. I have to burn off some energy I feel like Jennifer when she first got her powers and that's not good because I can kill all of Freeland if I mess up!

I feel hands on me and I freeze up I hear groaning and I turn seeing Gambi on the table, I run to him and look him up and down.

Me:See? I'm sorry, I gotta go before I hurt you.

Gambi:I'm fine, you just did some type of static field. Sit down please.

I sit down and my leg starts to bounce rapidly, I scrub my face again seeing that face.

"You think they wiped his memories? Maybe they made him a whole new identity.

He killed his mother... That's why she had the poison in her body! They upgraded him to change his neurotoxin potency!

Me:I need to relax.

Gambi:*scoffs* You think? Look I know you hate tea but-

Me:How high do you think Anissa would be on the list of the ASA? Like to handle?

He looks at me and I tilt my head to the side. He rushes over to me and I look at him.

Gambi:Do you know something Janelle?

Me:No but I know her and dad broke people out of the bogus concentration camp and dad promised to stay out of the lime light and Anissa has been causing trouble... That might just piss O'Dell off... Do you think he knows its Anissa? I mean he doesn't know my powers he just probably thinks me and Jennifer are twins with the same abilities.

Gambi:That only leaves Anissa... Sit here.

Me:Nah, I gotta go bye uncle Gambi!
