"I got myself some coffee and searched for the diploma, discovering it was offered at WSI [Western Sydney Institute] in Richmond. That was interesting... Richmond was about 60 kilometres northwest. And only about 40 from Pennant Hills. And the WSI was next door to the University of Western Sydney.Sarah emerged looking unhappy. "No go. They're full and they've a waiting list." Hmm. Did you know the diploma's offered at WSI? If we leave here now we could be there by 16:00. You could actually talk. I am not rash. I will keep up appearances until I really know what to do. Let me see what the next week brings. I need to find out who else knew about this. I will not do anything to alert her or anyone else to what I know.

Ralph places the now-full bucket on the concrete floor, then guides my brother over to the dingy display case. Almost as if he were the older brother, I tag along behind.

"You can try."My entire world turned white and soundless.I woke up on the floor. It looked to be broad daylight out."Lets try again, shall we? Hello, my name is Martin, I'm your preceptor." Fuck, my head really hurts." I was stupid. I got up and tried to grab him. I tried to surprise a telepath. I woke up on the floor again. There was a lump on my head where I had hit the edge of my coffee table. Martin was in my kitchen making a sandwich, he seemed a little amused when I walked in."Welcome.
