He must have only partially listened to him. “Powers and <em>abilities</em>, Mr. Sage,” he corrected.<br/><br/>Hal ran a hand back through his hair and asked, “Well, I don’t have either. So why am I here? I was hoping to become a pilot in the Air Force, but now I’m on some…” He glanced over at Vic since his guesstimated sounded believable, “…island or something?”<br/><br/>“There’s more to you than what you currently know Mr. Jordan. Time will reveal this. If you desire to be a pilot, then this school can train you,” said Dr. Fate.<br/><br/>Hal crossed his arms upon the table and then looked around at the room that was white a moment ago…unless he was somehow moved rooms. “Okay I guess…” He didn’t know what to say. Even if he was kidnapped secretly by the government—who was promising him pilot training—it didn’t seem like a bad setup. He might have been too gullible, but he was certain he would figure everything out eventually.<br/><br/>Starfire shared with Dr. Fate her concerns. “Princess Koriand’r of Tamaran; you may not understand your role right now, but I assure you that if you stay with this school and learn, then you will understand how much your existence here matters.”<br/><br/>Why did he believe convincing teens and tweens would have been easy? They were all of a healthy psychology to question their new surroundings and their destiny, and it bothered him that he couldn’t just tell them the full truth. He already had a feeling that Kara was going to be the most difficult of the students. Her trauma and scars were still fresh. It would take the bond she could build with her peers to help her heal. At Kara’s frustrated questions, Dr. Fate answered:<br/><br/>“I cannot force you to stay Kara.” He then looked to the other students. “I cannot force either of you to stay. I can only tell all of you that you were brought here for a very important reason. You can leave, but if you do so, I cannot protect you or your loved ones from the Emissaries of Chaos who will eventually come to either destroy or consume you.”<br/><br/>He then looked to Kara and Kal, “I could not save your families, but they chose to save you both. All I did was find you both.”<br/><br/>Raven spoke next, the daughter of the fearsome Trigun. She did not ask a selfish question. That interested him. Perhaps her empathic powers? “Krypton does not survive in any reality I’ve experienced. Something always brings about its destruction.” At her second line of questions, he answered, “You will all be able to freely speak with me in whatever setting you choose. If any of you decide to stay, then I will provide for you.”<br/><br/>Kal was still stunned by the revelation he had shared with him. Bruce or John, however, had not said a word. “Mr. Williams, you have not spoken a word. Do you have any questions?”</span>
