Angelika - Like an angel
Truda - Fighting woman
Varick - Protecting Ruler
Harman - Man of the army



Angelika arose from the other couch and walked over to Alan on unsteady ramification. Varick, Truda, and Harman became concerned when her face twisted into a more disturbed smell. `` Are you alright sister, '' Varick asked.

'' For now I am but I have to check Alan we almost lost him. I warned him not to use as much energy as he did. Then there was the fact that he gave up as his Energy Department was fading. '' Tears were now streaming down Angelika 's aspect. `` The idiot did it for me. He almost died trying to hold open me, if he does now I 'll never forgive myself ! ''

Varick moved to help his babe make her way slowly over to Alan 's prone manikin on the other lounge. Kneeling down Angelika placed a hand on his dresser, and the other on the side of his neck. `` Is he alright ? Varick asked when his sister still seemed to be concerned.

respiration a suspiration of backup man Angelika slowly nodded then almost toppled over onto Alan ! `` I think, dear buddy, I still need to lie down. The energy I gave Alan has weakened me far more than I at first intellection. '' Varick nodded as he helped Angelika viewpoint, then Harman joined Varick as they both helped her to her and Truda 's room.

'' I think we need to keep a end eye on both of them. Without him I feel we have n't a prospect against the Doctor of the Church ! '' Varick was telling a nodding and agreeing Harman.

'' I for one am glad that he finally allowed me to help you two. Did he really tear down the entire edifice ? '' Harman was asking a touch of awe in his articulation.

'' Yes, he took out the living, then the secondary supports. Then he watched as it collapsed almost straight person down. '' Varick replied.

'' So we 're absolutely sure that the assistant is dead ? '' A stumbling Angelika asked.

'' I would think so, considering Alan crushed the man. Until there was aught but a demolish wet position of lineage, bone and flesh on the base. Yeah I 'm somewhat sure ; I do n't see any way he could total back from that ! '' Harman said, though to Truda and Angelika, Harman seemed a LOT happier about it then they thought he should be.

Walking out Varick looked at Harman, `` We 're going to ingest to keep back a end eye on both of them. Angelika is more worried than she is letting on. Alan I think is trying to take all of this on by himself. We have to remind him that we have a stake in this also. ''

'' Yeah but that 's well-to-do said than done. Angelika and sometimes you are the only ones that can appear to get through to him. Hell even that at times is n't really enough. '' Harman replied.

'' I know though we are going to let to. As I said without Alan I do n't feel we have much of a chance against the doctor. '' Varick said rich in thought.

'' As strong as we 've become you still think we are no match for him ? '' A shocked Harman said.

'' According to Alan, the assistant was n't as strong as the Doctor. Alan also said that I am the strongest of the

four of us. Harman I was having a hard clock time against the unattackable of the assistant 's men. Had it been me against the man I do n't think I would suffer fared as well. '' Varick told a shocked Harman.

'' You really think that the Doctor is that unattackable ? '' Harman asked.

'' It 's not as a great deal strength as to the fact of what they did to us. You remember the pieces of themselves they left in us. Alan says that there are more. The most debilitating Alan has removed from us. He said the early day there are more almost as bad. What he 's done so far has given us a luck but I feel we need more than. Remember Alan had emotion on his English when he defeated the help. Then he was completely drained afterward, almost to the detail of expiry. No my friend, we need to be better prepared. '' Varick told a slightly shocked Harman.

'' Well, I just hope that we and Alan can finally put an end to all of it. Like he said before, I like my privacy but having those buttocks in my head leaves me feeling too damn vulnerable. '' A slightly pissed off Harman told Varick.

'' I know my friend ; let 's just hope that Alan can do more for us. '' Varick replied.

Alan awoke a day and a half later with a splitting worry. Looking around he had to agitate his head a few clip to enlighten it. Where in the hell am I ? Then the memories flooded back as the confrontation that he and the assistant had broke through.

'' How are you feeling ? '' A distaff voice said from behind him.

Shocked Alan almost fell off the couch. `` Uh ... '' He started as he could only stare at the exceedingly beautiful dirty blonde. Shaking his read/write head again he started to gain more retentiveness. `` I ... uh am having a bit of difficulty. Wait ! Angelika ? mother ? ''

The woman nodded as a diminished look of shock lit up her heart. `` I warned you not to expend your push like that ! Damn it Alan ! ! This almost killed you ! ''

Searching as hard as he could he could feel his mind playing catch up. `` It was n't intentional I assure you mother. Just the thought of the lecherous son of a squawk capturing you let alone touching you set something off in me. '' The other three appeared a moment later. `` I apologize to all of you. It was never my intention to go as far out of control as I did. ''

'' Hell ! I 'm glad you did, bout meter we gave those assholes a taste of their own medicine ! OW ! Why the hell on earth did you do that ... Ow ! Shit ! '' Harman said after Truda elbowed him in the rib.

'' Here I thought you were actually growing up some ! I can see I am going to cause to keep correcting you ! '' Truda almost growled at her brother.

'' As I said I am regretful that I worried all of you like I did. I am also afraid that the doctor knows that the assistant is short. Right after I razed the building I felt another that worked for the medico there watching. I heard him separate the doctor, yes it was him. I was hoping that we might have this as an vantage. I can see that is blown out the window now. I feel that the son of a bitch is going to be watching every shit move we make for a while. At least 'til I find his spies. '' Alan told them.

'' Alan you really consider he is preparing for us to snipe him ? '' Angelika asked.

'' I would n't be surprised though I do think that we have an advantage there also. The Doctor of the Church might have touched all of you but not me. The few clock time I have gone back I have planted things in the Doctor much like he and the assistant had been doing to all of you. We might actually have his ass if sorry comes to worse. I do need to work on all of you though. That is if you want me to ? '' Alan asked as he looked around.

'' After what you have given back to me, yes ! '' Truda excitingly said.

'' I have learned a few things when you opened me up Alan. Things make me want to vote down that son of a bitch even more. '' Angelika snarled.

'' For all that he has stolen from us, for the injury and nuisance that have been done to yours and our family, yes I want you too. '' Harman growled.

'' At first when we started this I was unsure. This last meter we went against the help he had almost no control though he was reaching. As you say the Doctor is many times worse and stronger. I agree most altogether heartily. We need to be prepared if we are ever to be even half normal again. '' Varick replied.

'' beneficial I want to start as soon as potential. '' Alan started to climb off the bed and fell back weak. `` Maybe, after I recover a bit more ! '' Alan said as Truda and Angelika snickered.

It was the next day that Alan was finally out of bed. He 'd started on Truda trying to get to down to the firstly percentage of her that he freed. Figuring that the oldest was isolated and another there might increase her control. Afterward Truda had trembled for 60 minutes as many horrid storage were opened.

Over the next calendar week Alan worked tirelessly freeing up four of the earliest parts of their nous. Angelika and Truda kept an eye on Alan to make certainly he did n't crowd himself too far.

It was the end the seventh day and Alan had just lain down when he heard a voice. < Nephew ? >

Popping up Alan looked around, < Uncle ? Is something wrong ? > Alan asked.

'' < I 'm not sure, I 've been feeling someone trying to poke into past the hiding field. more of a curious pushing, they have been turned away or around but I felt just a few minutes ago another more powerful. The field almost did n't hold. This was an exceedingly powerful intellect. As I said it was a rummy probing but it was there. I am glad you had us increase the field but I feel it might fall soon. '' Emory 's thoughts said.

Sighing Alan shook his foreland, < If we come back there I am afraid that it will be an all out war, with the village in the middle. >

< I know, I know but up 'til now there was n't a cause to fear now, I 'm not that sure. Please lecture to the others and let me cognize, I have increased the field some but I feel even that might not stop the next probe. > Emory thinking.

< Alright I 'll let you roll in the hay in a bit. > Alan told the man.

Alan called the others and informed them of what was going on. `` I 'm not surely that if we go that thing wo n't be worse. I told Emory that I 'd talk to all of you, after he asked. ''

Angelika looked at Varick, `` Do you experience that we will score things worse ? ''

Sighing Varick was serenity for a few minutes. `` I think we should go. I also think that we are barely ready. What Alan has done this hebdomad I can feel. My impedance is gamey but I do n't feel high enough yet. What do you think Alan ? ''

'' It 's true you are stronger. Two of the strongest industrial plant that were in you are gone. Except for Truda you all have the five soonest parts that are you, free. Truda has eight as of today. Yes, you are stronger but as I said there are others in you. If we were to go against the Doctor right now I feel that we would mislay. Truda still has the strongest resistance against him. Mother I am afraid that you have the unaccented, though now all of you can resist him, just not for long. anathemise it ! I need at least another week ! ''

'' I feel that we need to go. You were going to strengthen more and maybe open up others. Maybe that will keep them safe ? '' Truda said.

Varick and Alan looked at each former. Recently had been a metre that Truda had n't been wrong. Alan nodded to all of them, and then sat. < Alright Emory we 're coming back I 'm not sure I can reopen all of them from here but I 'll try. >

< Thank you Alan, I am afraid that the probing might be coming again. Please hurry I do n't think I have enough strong suit alone to hold it off. >

Alan again nodded and reached out to Madde first feeling all the pulley he 'd put up. Concentrating they were gone. Then Alan turned to Aldrich though his opposition was high he was soon open. Alan felt them both rushing to Emory.

< I need the both of you to sustain off the residual of them when we arrive, Madde. > Alan told her who told her son as they prepared for the five of them to appear.

Alan nodded to the other four and they flashed out, across the world all five appeared in the construction that they had all been in. Alan immediately made every gun disappear then looked at all of the hoi polloi in front end of him. Suddenly all of them were looking at Alan and the others.

Alan turned to Emory, `` I am dingy that we had to do this but I felt it was the best way to keep all of you safe. Please explain to Madde and the others. I feel that it would be prudent if we were n't here when you do. ''

Emory nodded then snickered, `` I am afraid that she is going to be a wild cat when I explain why you did this ... Yes I think you all should leave for a meter. She will read, she wo n't be happy but will understand. ''

Alan nodded then looked at Varick for a minute. obeisance, they all flashed out just as Madde and her son Aldrich appeared at the doorway. `` Damn it father ! Why were we kept out of this ? ''

Alan and the party appeared in another bunker ; Alan thought it honest not to allure fate after he 'd wired the lowest one.

'' Alright, we 've been in all of our trap, at least I think we have. I do n't distinguish this one at all. '' Angelika said.

'' I believe this is one of the initiative bunkers you built years ago. Varick just remembered it two twenty-four hours ago. It appears to be in a furrow toward where I felt the Doctor retreat. I 'd say it is roughly 194.8 Km ( 121.04 international mile ) Frederick North of the village. '' Alan told them. `` I believe that the Doctor was afraid that we would rediscover this bunker. He might be afraid that we could find him well-heeled. I believe he might be right. '' Alan looked around a moment a look of concentration on his face. `` Varick do you find that ? ''

Varick stood still concentrating, `` palpate anything ? No I ... what ? What is that Alan ? ''

Alan smiled hugely, `` I believe we are as close as we can safely be to the Doctor, without confrontation. ''

'' WHAT ! '' Angelika and Truda shouted. `` You just told us that we were n't ready. Yet you have us so close that we can feel him ? Quite possibly he can feel us also ? ''

Again Alan smiled even larger. `` No he ca n't, I believe are far too close for him to do anything. Besides as I am surely you are starting to experience we have our own concealment field ! '' This last office Alan said with a bit of pride. `` Uncle taught me a short while we were there. ''

All of the other four reached out and could feel the field a lot warm by many clock time more than that around the village expanse. Varick touched the field and added his own energy to it, as did Harman.

'' Now then I think ... '' Alan started when there was a voice, a rather angry vox speaking to him.

< full cousin ! I understand why you did what you did. I understand that it was essential but you could experience ASKED ! All of us would cause agreed ! I ought to kick your ass when I see you again ! You best hope I calm down before that ! > Alan heard Madde say cringing at her anger.

Truda and Angelika smiled hugely at Alan they almost knew how the Whitney Young woman felt that was for trusted.

Alan was nodding his head, < At the time, we wanted to get out of there as fast as possible. There really was n't time. > Alan explained.

< That is pig shit and you know it cousin ! Maybe I ought to give up your ass anyway ! > Madde thought process. A moment later Madde appeared in the bunker with them !

'' What ! ? What in the hell is going on ? Did you do this Alan ? '' Madde was almost growling at him.

'' No I think you did though how I am not that sure. May I look ? '' Alan asked.

'' NO ! You may not ! I am way too pissed off at you at the moment ! Just post me back and let me calm down ! '' Madde was practically yelling at Alan.

Throwing his custody up in frustration Alan looked at her and she was suddenly gone.

Outside of the edifice a man that no one knew pulled a earphone from his sac. `` Ja I have entered the outer

part of the village. I have seen the most amazing thing ! Yes I can, alright pass on me a bit and I 'll call you when I am outside of the area. Alright MD I 'll be careful, Ja, I know they will kill me if they ... '' Suddenly a shadower passed over the man. `` Nien, Nien ! '' Then the telephone set went dead.

The man was struggling as the men brought him to see Emory. `` Hmmm, what do we stimulate here ? '' Emory said.

'' I caught him outside spying on us Grandfather. '' Aldrich reported.

'' Yes I see. Bring him closer. '' Emory reached out as he 'd felt up Alan do when Alan had strengthened his mind and ability. Trying his proficient not to hurt the man Emory started to see persona, orders that the man been given. Finally Emory went as deeply as he could, finding out all he could. Suddenly the man started to scream, Madde called Alan as the man started to pant then hyper-ventilate.

'' Alan I am gloomy but I am afraid that founding father may kill the man please precipitation ! '' Madde 's dire plea reached Alan.

appearance next to Emory Alan reached out and gently began to rip Emory out. Panting himself Alan just shook his head. Going back in Alan saw all the harm that Emory had done, though looking closer Alan saw that it was more of the medico 's handy oeuvre.

The man 's thinker was rapidly deteriorating. As fast as Alan fixed something, something else went. As of yet Alan had only repaired half of the man 's automatic systems. < I am afraid that you are going to lose this one. I have him programmed to fail no subject what you heal and fix. I know you think you are strong but not even you with the power you have can you save him. Once he dies I will know where you are, then I will have this against you Alan. relish his death you fool ! > The Doctor 's voice said taunting Alan as he started to go faster.

Damn it ! The old illegitimate was good ! Suddenly a sentiment hit Alan. Ten minutes later Alan withdrew as the man was finally breathing easier.

'' Alan, are you alright ? '' A distressed Truda said as she touched his berm.

'' I 'm not sure Truda, really I 'm not sure. '' Alan told her then realized that she was actually there ! `` Why are you here ? ''

'' Your first cousin called me, she said that you went into the spy 's head and you were n't looking all that good. So I came as soon as I could. '' Truda replied. `` It was the Doctor was n't it ? ''

'' Yes, it appears he is trying to get me to fail so he can use that against me. He forgot that I am a lot more than just getting unassailable. I 'd like to think I am getting smarter also. No matter what I did this man was supposed to die. That 's what the message was. He said he had the man programmed to die no matter what I healed or repaired. That gave me an melodic theme. One I have to say that I got from helping all of you the first time. ''

'' From helping all of us, '' a mix up Truda replied.

'' Yes, when I started I was shifting and moving thing back into their right lieu. I did all of this before I ever thought to strengthen any of you guys. You see he gave me an answer by running his mouth. I started to move thing back where they should be even as I was healing him. This slowed greatly his dead body and mind loser. By moving everything I found what the Doctor had put in and was able to vote down it. Well he and I did.

Unfortunately I ca n't let the man remember I am afraid that it is the sole matter I can do to ensure the man stays alive. '' A sad Alan told her.

'' You say he has to stay alive ? Why ? '' A still confused Truda asked.

Sighing, Alan touched Truda 's head and showed her what he 'd seen in the man 's nous. `` The man is a pawn only. The doctor could manage less if he lives or dies. The man is a house man has two tiddler and a married woman. He 's a skillful man and deserves a fortune to live on the rest of his life. ''

Truda 's oculus filled with tears and a new determination crossed her aspect. Alan smiled a piddling as he felt the part that he could n't impress finally move into place. trade good he thought, now he really wo n't be able to stir her ! `` We really need to kill this son of a bitch, '' came Truda 's growl !

'' I know Truda, I know. I want this cocksucker just as bad. I am going to wipe out him but if he does pour down me then I know that the four of you can get the job done. '' Alan told her.

A shocked look came on Truda 's expression as she growled at Alan. `` That had salutary be a bad joke Alan ! A very bad joke ; that I am not finding in the damn least bit funny ! ''

Alan smiled he was really starting to care this fair sex. `` Alright call the others just in case. ''

Truda nodded and a few secondment later the other three were standing beside Alan. `` Just in case of what ? '' Angelika said her eyes flashing as she stared at Alan.

'' I need to labor all of these multitude higher. It 's the only chance the Greenwich Village has. '' Alan said as a shocked Angelika and Truda both nodded. `` If the both of you can, add to the concealing field of study, '' which brought nods from both Varick and Harman.

Alan started on the twenty he 'd done before. Finally finished with them he nodded they were more than twice what they had been before. It was n't the best but it would help the concealing flying field stay a lot stronger now. Next was Aldrich, Aldrich 's eye opened widely when he felt he was almost as strong as his mother. Then for a few minutes he was actually stronger.

Alan waited as Madde stepped forward, though the anger had finally evaporated there was still something in her eye. Alan just could n't seem to put his finger on it. When she reached the level her father was at she smiled. `` Thank you Alan finally perhaps I can protect everyone better. ''

Alan turned to Emory who sighed. `` I 'm not so sure it is a good thing that I am more brawny. I almost killed that man. ''

'' Only because you do n't know how to yet, I can avail with that uncle, ok ? '' Alan said and then waited 'til Emory nodded his assent. Alan reached out and started to impart the man higher. Alan was shocked when Emory reached a level that was almost as mellow as his siblings. Another strange affair Alan felt as if he had n't expended even half as much energy as last time.

Emory smiled as he went through what Alan had put in his judgement in the way of healing and several former affair that Alan thought the man might involve soon. `` Do you find like trying to unfold a few more ? There are only two

today. I know you said that almost everyone has abilities. Are you certainly ? I mean I 've never seen anything in either of them. ''

'' Oh yes, let me see them. '' Emory nodded and then two offspring men entered the building.

'' This is my Nephew Alan. He will be opening you up, listen to him or he will cease in seconds, understood ? '' Both of the young men nodded.

Alan explained that they had a responsibility with these ability. If they chose to pervert them, then they could be removed, permanently. Alan nodded and reached out to both of the men. For the first of all ten bit Alan moved matter around 'til things were where they would provide the men their abilities. Then Alan started to slowly open their ability kernel. Both of the men could feel Alan in their heads, and then they felt their ability center open.

Alan watched as both of the young men 's mouthpiece dropped open then they smiled at Alan. Nodding to Alan the start tried to stand ; Alan just shook his forefront as he toppled over onto a mattress. The bit swallowed hard and sat where he was. Good Alan thought, they are n't all idiots after all .
