Dead or Alive?

I often compare my life to many things i've seen on TV, but today i thought about life in a different way. Like i was in a game of strategy, like Starcraft, or Chess. In both the goal is to win, and we try and think 2 steps ahead of our oppnents, only using special abilities such as invisibility and taking out the queen when we think its essential. Thinking of life like a game isn't always a good way to think, but when you've got as many powers as i have and even more crafty ways to use them, than it doesn't really matter how you think. You always win.

Jorge had reality warping, that much is true. So i can never be 100% sure if hes dead or not, all i know is that he wont underestimate me and my team, so i should be safe.
Charlie was still talking about his encounter with West the flying boy, i wanted to take that kids power at some stage but with my TK getting so good, i dont really need it anymore.
Stan had gotten a text message from someone called "EM". I don't know what her power is and i dont know her connection to us, so dont ask. She said something about how "death isn't the end" or something. That was probably refering to Jorge, his power is too dangerous, its a wonder he hasn't killed me yet! Maybe i'm more useful to him alive...
EM had connections, there was no doubt about that. I tried to summon Jorge, to see if he knew anything but (like the file) he wouldn't allow it to be that easy, that or he is actaully dead.
"The best way to control a situation is by having the right controler", i was never clear on what that meant, but i think it means that i need the right people to control this situation. i needed all the "players" i could find, West included. I summoned him. I dont know what John did to him but it took alot of concentration to snap him out of it, thanks Playwrite for weakening the command.
"What the hell is going on?!" he was shocked, he tried to fly away but i TKed him to the spot.
"I need your help" i tried to look as desperate as i could but the reality was that he would help me whether he liked it or not.
"Why would i help you?" he asked angrily, "after you tried to kill me!" I had no idea that he knew i was the same person who tried to kill him.
"How'd you know that was me?" I really was curious. He held up his cell phone revealing a text he got from EM saying: "they're the same person"
WHO THE HELL IS THIS PERSON!!!!!!!? i didn't know how to react to this new addition to the "texting/annoying Cleo" group, so i just TKed his phone out the window, it hit somone, needless to say, whoever got hit by that phone now has a preeety good phone!
"Do you want to stop the government?"
"yeah. who doesn't?"
"Join us"
I had won him over, he was reluctant if course, and he said that he would leave as soon as the government were gone. He needed a partner. we'd had customers coming in the last few days. Chan and Shifter had evaluated who would be suitable for the job, we called one in.
"Whats this about?" a woman about my age asked, she was beautiful but she was also smart. she could be a planner for missions. There was a down side: she had a power. But i decided that she and West can be our trial team that has 2 specials.
"Miss Bishop, we want to offer you a job" i said to her calmly.
"Why?" she asked, confused. All she ever came to us for advice on money, apparently she used to have alot of it but after her dad died she had no clue on how to handle finances.
"We own a company that specialises in people, like YOU" she was shocked. She leaped out of her chair and shot electricity at me, i used a forcefield to stop it.
"No! i'm not going to do it again!" she explained to me, Chan, Shifter, Omni and Sage about these places called Pinehearst and Primatech, how they ruined peoples lives.
"We have different views to them" Sage assured her.
"thats what Arthur said! it all ends up the same!" Elle told us about a man called Sylar (this guy sounds like a real creep), and the company founders. not very good subjects, if we ended up like that then i would consider faking my death and opening up an anti-primatech too!
"But we do!" Chan and Omni said in unison.
i knew that she knew alot more about the companies than she wished to say, for her sake i stayed out of her head.Then i noticed that her aura was different to other specials, like it had been dead, then it was alive again, like someone healed it. despite what you may think, when you die and come back to life your aura is never restored because its meant to be dead. hers was partially restored. i asked her if she had died and come back to life.
she had that look of 'how did you know?' on her face, "yeah, i was teleported by some japanese guy, with Sylar. he started to cut open my head, after that was a blur. all i saw was some girl a little younger than me fly off, i could smell smoke. i guess i came to the conclusion that through some miracle Claire had healed me and flew off with West" I proceeded to ask who Claire is, Elle only said that she and her were like a hate eachother with a passion/mutual respect when they dont try and kill eachother and something about how Claire couldn't die, (which meant that Elles attempts at killing her were probably unsuccesful). Those two are kinda like Mia and i if you think about it. Then i thought of it! Mia healed her! she had healing on her "list" from when i was going over her stats and she could probably restore an aura, because she had the power to take them! why not the power to give them back? thankyou Mia! Elle seems competant enough to be an agent. she had also had training for the occupation.
West and her were a no go though! upon being in the same room together i had to null their powers so they didn't kill eachother! dont know whats going on there. I just asked them why they hated eachother, West could find a pretty pathetic reason: tried to capture Claire, maybe kill her. The girl cant die! Elle just said that he got in her way. Since i'm a prize negotiater they were partners with only a little hatred towards eachother in no time at all. I dont know what i said, but i rarely do when it comes to this stuff, people just listen to me.

After today, with EM warning us about things that she cant possibly know anything about or even be connected to. She must have an ability, but what is it?
After seeing that someone can come back from the dead, aura and all i wonder if anything is ever actually dead. or if you want the darker look on it: is anyone ever really alive? geez! look at what i'm sounding like! though i could've assigned Elle or West to be Stans partner i'm having fun being a field agent, but as soon as we get a normal person on board, i'll go back to being office ridden. Theres still tension and dislike between Elle and West.
