The book had strange patterns on it and appeared to be old.

“This book contains very dangerous Exchangement techniques” Jesy continued “David this book belongs to you now”

David looked at the book “But is something like this really best left in my hands?” he asked.

“David you probably haven’t noticed since you’ve never met anyone you’re own age, but you’re way smarter than any ordinary 8 year old kid. Take for example how you got out of the bunker”

“I didn’t do anything special I just remember the code you entered”

“While we were being attacked you managed to remember a 9 digit number that I tipped in as fast as I could. David that’s not something just anyone can do”

“David was at a loss, he never thought of himself as anyone special, if anything he thought that he was less skilled then others”

“Sorry but we really should get going” said Mia as she closed the safe.

Jesy locked the door as they were leaving and warped the key into a backpack, put the book in and gave it to David.

On their way out Jesy told David more about the book.

It was a book several hundred years old, but it appeared new as it was made from some type of special paper. The book was written in a language known only by the Salaman family a language that David already knew. The book contained several techniques that were only known to a small number of people, like how to warp the elements like air and fire as well as techniques like the Exchange seal that once put on an item prevents Exchangers from warping sed item. However what made this book so valuable were 3 techniques that were considered beyond the realm of mortals.

Soul Exchange, Bio Exchange and there is no record of the third one.

People are born with a type of Anti Exchange that’s impossible to undo unless you know Soul Exchange. There are no records of anyone learning this technique. The Salaman family’s earliest records are 450 years old which means no one has learned this technique in the past 450 years.

Bio Exchange is a technique used to warp living tissue. There are detailed records of it as Jesy’s father used it. It lets you Exchange your muscle tissue, organs, bones with much stronger ones. Or you could create a completely new creature, bacteria, human even.

Outside the mansion, there were 30 guards dressed in black. David had never seen so many people before, and in the garden stood something else that David had never seen before, a helicopter.

Jesy opened the helicopter door and told David to get in. David looked at Mia and just as he was going to thank her she hugged him, and whispered in his ear “Be strong”

Mia looked at Jesy and stuck her tongue, at this Jesy showed a slightly annoyed expression. David nervously got in the helicopter and they took off.

An hour later they landed in an airport, David was stunned at how many people there were there but he didn’t have much time to look around as they installed got on a private jet and took off. Then 6 hours later they landed.

“Where are we now?” David asked.

“This is our family’s private island” Jesy answered.

“Our private...” David was stunned.

“Let’s go this way” Jesy said pointing at a car on the road next to the airport.

They started walking to the car. When they approached the car an older man and woman stepped out.

“David, meat you’re grandma and grandpa”
