But Nick didn't intend for anyone to hurt him either. Why would anyone want to hurt him? He had never used his powers to cause trouble or hurt anyone. He didn't hate anyone. There was too much compassion in his heart for that. In fact, when he read peoples thoughts, he tried to use what he learned to make them more comfortable.

And he had lived with this secret all his life. He felt that he had hidden his powers well, and that only he and his foster mother knew. No other person on Earth could possibly have known about his mind-reading, or so he thought.

"So, you're telling me you found him? "

"Yeah"

"How do you know? "

"I just do, I get this feeling every time I see him. "

"Brent, maybe you're gay.. ". Andrew joked.

"Shut up! This is serious. It's him, I know it. "

"Well suppose it is him, we can't do anything about it. "

"We have to. The Queen told us we could not return without the missing brother. "

"I don't wanna go back. We should tell the King of all this. "

"Why? So the Queen can have our heads? No, she wants him for some reason. It has to be a secret, she hasn't even told His Highness. "

"Do you think he's really our brother. "

"I don't know. He has father's looks and his mannerisms. But he's somewhat quiet. "

"Yeah, but that is probably a result of his family. They must have noticed his abilities, so they probably are afraid. "

"I know, but we can be outgoing and still shield our powers. "

"But we have grown up knowing how to control them. He didn't. "

"You're right. Well, I'll call the others, do you want them here by tomorrow night? "

"At least. We have to start this as soon as possible. We only have a limited amount of time, so make sure all of the details are handled."

"Sure. I'll call you later when everything is in order."
