jumped out of her seat and started
laughing.
    "You've
gotten very good at that. I even tried to fight it to give Avery enough time to
try to sense something. So, did you?"
    I nodded.
"It was very strange. When someone uses their power on me I can feel a
strange tingle in my head but when you were using it on Rema I could feel that
tingle very faintly in my whole body. The tingle is stronger when I can just
feel it in my head, though."
    "I think
you need to really pay attention anytime you feel that sensation. If you don't
know where it's coming from make sure you observe your surroundings and see if
you can follow the sensation to the source. I wish there was some way we could
find out if this works with other creatures powers but that's too dangerous
right now. I'll get Carson to do some research on powers to see if we can find
anything similar in our records. For now, I think we're done for the day. We'll
meet again tomorrow."
    Even though we
hadn't done much training today I was relieved that it was over. It had been
exciting but I didn't want to be on fire again anytime soon. Felix and I stood
up to leave but Rema had one more thing to say.
    "Felix, I
think you should take Avery on tours around the building. I think the more
opportunities you have to try to sense powers the better. Maybe you could even
talk to some Lovac and Nesmyr you know and get them to use their powers more.
I'll send a word out to some people, too. I want a full report of anything that
happens."
    "Of
course," Felix said, bowing his head a little bit and then he escorted me
out of the room.
    "Are you
really going to walk me around this whole building? It looked huge from the
outside. I feel like we'll get lost."
    He gave a half
smile and shook his head. "I practically grew up here. I know where
everything is at. There are only six stories and each of them is large enough
that they'll take an hour or so to tour. We can tour after dinner every day if
you're not too tired."
    It was a good
thing I didn't have anything better to do. My whole day just got booked with
activities. Physical training in the morning, mental training in the afternoon
and now touring the facility in the evening.
    "Are you
sure you don't mind spending your whole day with me?"
    "Well, I
could be out hunting down some Zhulik or doing other small tasks for Nesmyr but
I actually enjoy spending time with you."
    I giggled
nervously again and quickly changed the subject.    
"Are we just going to stand in this hallway all night or are you going to
take me on a tour? Unless we're not starting that yet."
    "How about
we go get some dinner and then go on a tour if you're not too sore?"
    "I feel
like I'll be sore for the rest of my life but I think I can handle it."
     
     

Chapter 10
     
     
    We headed down
to the main level where the cafeteria was. We had picked up some lunch from
there earlier but ate in the gym. This time we actually ate there and it felt
like a five star restaurant as opposed to a cafeteria. There were waiters at
our table every five minutes to check on us and the food was astounding.
Everyone that worked there were Nesmyr.
    "Why are
Nesmyr working here?" I asked. "I thought they were all rich."
    "There are
a lot more Nesmyr families than the ones you saw at the adoption. Those were
the rich families. There are lower class Nesmyr too. The only way to be part of
the upper class is to be born into it or fight your way up the ranks."
    "How is it
that Nesmyr are able to have children when all the myths about Vampires say
they can't?"
    "Nesmyr are
only descendants of the Vampire. All of the myths that you hear about Vampires
hardly apply to Nesmyr. Zhulik are the ones who ended up with most of the bad
qualities that the Nosferatu had, with a few exceptions. Neither race can go
out in the sun. Nesmyr won't immediately burst into flames but it does a lot of
damage. Zhulik can't even see sunlight without some kind of damage."
    "What about
religious symbols and
