"We'll it's not something you tell everyone," Rachel says and looks around. "Where's your Sister Max?"

"With Logan packaging his things. Why?"

"Contact her and get them back quickly," Max closes his eyes and remains silent for a moment. "They're already on the way back. What's going on?"

She turns to me, "I'm afraid your friends have called for backup."

Turning to Sarah I see she's already concentrating. When she opens her eyes a tear falls.

"It wasn't Agent White. It was Cara.  She told them where we are."

"Who's Cara?" Max asks.

"She's my Sister."

*** Federal Special Unit Facility Elkhart, Indiana ***

A teenage girl slowly begins to wake up. As her eyes focus she finds herself lying on the floor inside a 10 by 10 cage. Staggering to her feet she leans against the concrete wall in the back. After a moment she looks around and sees her Brother on the floor in the cage next to her.

"Aiden!" She shouts and rushes to the bars that separate them. He doesn't answer, but she can tell he's breathing.

Suddenly a loud noise pierces the silence as a large metal door opens. Three men walk inside, two are wearing white coats, and the third's wearing a black suit.

She walks up to the front of her cage to face them.

"Hello Jessica. I hope you've recovered from your unscheduled trip."

"Who are you? What do you want!" She shouts.

He smiles, "So much anger from such a pretty girl."

"Believe me you haven't seen anything yet. Let us out of here or."

"Or what?"

She throws out both hands expecting the cage door to fly off it's hinges, and nothing happens. After looking down at her hands she tries again.

"What have you done to me?" She shouts.

"Don't worry. I haven't done anything, well at least anything permanent. Your telekinetic abilities are currently being suppressed," he takes a step toward her. "You and your Brother are actually very lucky. Most Paranormals we capture have a lifespan of about a month. But the two of you are destined for something greater."

"Just unlock the doors and let us go. We haven't done anything wrong!"

The man in black reaches into his pocket and retrieves a small device. "Such defiance," he says and presses a button.

Jessica screams out in pain holding her head and falls to the floor curling up into a ball. After a few seconds he removes his finger and her screaming stops.

After recovering a little she manages to sit up on her knees, feels the back of her neck and finds an implant.

"Soon the two of you will be conditioned and ready to fulfill your destiny."

Still trying to catch her breath, she looks up at him and he smiles.

"When her Brother wakes up begin the procedures immediately.  I want them ready as soon as possible," he says to his colleagues and walks toward the door.

Jessica closes her eyes, "Megan... Where are you?" she thinks as tears begin to fall.

*** The Blackwell Farm ***

"She's working for them, and she has your ability?" Rachel asks.

"Yeah, but it's not what you think. They've brainwashed her into working for them. "

"Is it too late Sarah?" I ask.

"Yes. They've already set up a perimeter around the farm."

Megan and Logan suddenly rush inside, stop and bend over trying to catch their breath.

"Max. We just barely snuck by them. They're everywhere and headed this way," Logan manages to say.

Sarah steps forward, "Hailey, can you stop time again?"

"No. It's too soon. I've never used my ability for that long on such a big area."

The barn begins to shake as a helicopter flies overhead circling the area.

"Well, I guess we're too late," I say and turn to Max. "If we're going down."

Max nods, "Then let's give them a fight they'll never forget."

"Sarah, get behind me," I say and she does.

Max turns to Logan, "You may want to take cover." He grabs an old pick.

"I'm standing with the three of you."

"Max smiles, "Thanks my friend." He turns to the girls, "We stand united. Remember If we fight as one we can't be defeated." Hailey and Megan step up beside Max as their eyes turn blue. I also notice something blue glowing under his shirt.

Standing side by side Max glances at me as my eyes turn black, and he nods.

"Sarah, where are they?" I ask.

"Thirty men will be at the entrance of the barn in two minutes," she puts her hand on my shoulder. "There's a lot more slowly surrounding us."

Max turns to Hailey, they stare at each other but say nothing. After a moment Hailey sheds a tear as they share one last kiss.

Turning back to Sarah I take her in my arms, "Remember, I love you... Always."

"Alright everyone." Max turns back to the doors. "Let's do this."
