Saint Joseph School

A LOT has happened to Jacob over the past year so I will try to summarize in the interest of keeping things short and readable.

Jake's personalities were merged and his memories restored after countless visits with the school psychiatrists and other specialists. After this he spiraled into a ...

The coach smiled to himself proud of what the students had accomplished. He watched as Damian and Annamarie stepped out into the middle of the court and shook each others hands. The rest of the team followed suit. It had been a fantastic game... and he thought that everyone there head earned the ...

Matt and Roy faced off for the final quarter. Matt jumped harder and faster this time trying to outpace Roy's ability to extend his limbs. He managed to push it with the tip of his fingers barely knocking it past Roy. Anna caught it and drove it down for a three point shot but as soon as the ball ...

The coach once again tossed the ball into the air. Matt jumped first but this time Roy built stone upon himself and his arm seemed to grow two feet in length as he knocked the ball towards Case. Damian immediately teleported under the other teams net. As soon as Case spotted him he teleported the ...

Again Matt and Roy stood face to face and again Matt's superior reflexes won him the ball. He quickly passed it to Anna who dribbled it down the court passing it to Malcom. Mal blocked by Nick and Damian quickly passed it back to Matt. Anna extended her hands sending a burst of oxygen and energy ...

The coach walked to the center of the court. Matt and Roy approached him from either side. The coach smiled nodding at the two of them. "Are you two ready?"

Matt nodded, "Ready." Roy nodded in agreement as well but kept quiet.

The coach threw the ball up into the air blowing his whistle as he did ...

The stadium was packed. It looked as if every last student in the school had shown up for the big game. Coach Waters stood on the side lines of the court a vague trace of a grin spreading across his lips. Tonight was the night. Coach Waters picked up a microphone and spoke, quietly at first but his ...

Jacob found himself a few hours later in front of that same small glass window. His father stared back at him for the second time today. For the second time in almost two years.

"Why didn't you tell me you were a mutant?"

His father hung his head briefly. "Would you have believed me?"

Jacob ...

Vesper took Jake's arm as they left the prison. "Is Auburn near here?"

Jacob nodded. "It's about an hour or so east of here. Do you think you could fly that?"

"I can do that."

"We'll hit a gas station. I'll get changed there."

Soon they were in the air flying towards the still rising sun. An ...

Ves and Jacob stood outside in the waiting room. The cold concrete walls did nothing to alleviate his fear. Ves pressed against him as one of the prison guards walked by giving them a dirty look. Another prison guard came through a slate blue metal door. He looked at Vesper uncomfortably before ...

By the time they reached the motel room the following night, they were both ready for a break from the confines of busses and cabs. Ves stood on the opposite side of the lobby and let Jake handle the check-in.

As soon as they got into the room, Jake opened his suitcase. "I think I’m going to change ...

Over thirty hours. That's how long it would take the bus to get to Montgomery. They stopped counting the stops. Bus stations, rest stops, meal stops, every one of them added up and eventually just faded together. At times, the gravity of what this trip meant to Jacob and the looming possibility of ...

Ves sat at the foot of Jacob’s bed and leaned against the wall. The door to his quad was standing open, but none of his roommates were in. “Are you all packed, yet?”

Jacob’s foot dangled over the edge of the bed as he ...

Jacob stood quietly in front of Sister Salvation. He couldn't bring himself to look at her. He held out the small cardboard box of components and the torn pages from the book. She just glowered at him. "Is this all of it?"

Jacob nodded still looking down. Salvation grew angrier. "Look at me when I ...

Jacob sat Indian-style on the floor of his room carefully measuring and placing the components in the Tupperware mixing bowl. He couldn't help but think that for a love spell this smelled really awful. He read over each ingredient as he added it. Two tablespoons of black tea leaves to open the mind ...
