the drive home was silent. Jesse was still in shock and I'd rather not talk about school. We reached the house and got out of the car. Jesse turned to look at me.
"You're insane, this is insane." I just laughed, I expected him to act this way. He followed me into the house and Ray and Mikey sat exhausted on the couch, they informed me they were doing guitar practice earlier. We walked up to my room and I threw my backpack on the bed. Jesse looked around, impressed by my room. I sat on my bed and sighed. I turned my head so I was facing him.
"I'm dying." I complained jokingly. He laughed and sat next to me on the bed. He layed down beside me.
"Same." He he replied, turning his head to face me. We heard the front door open and we sat up. It was probably Gerard, Lyn-Z had band practice with MSI. My suspicion was confirmed when I heard his voice. I turned to Jesse and he looked like he was actually dying. I walked to my door and peered out. I saw Gerard talking to Ray and Mikey. I kind of eavesdropped on their conversation. What can I say, I'm snoopy.
"I don't know what to do. We're both going on tour and there's no one to take care of her." Gerard said, putting his hand on his forehead. Mikey said something but I couldn't really hear what.
"Why don't you get Brendon to look after her? I don't think he's up to anything." Ray asked.
Brendon? I thought. As in like-
Gerard said something else before walking up the stairs. I quickly and quietly shut my door and sat on my bed. Jesse looked at me in confusion.

"Just act natural." I said, before my door opened. Gerard looked at the two of us.
"You must be Adie's school friend." He said, smiling. Jesse nodded, any faster and his head would come off. Gerard turned to me.
"Uh Adie I need to take to you downstairs real quick." He said, slightly opening the door up a bit. Jesse turned to me, picking up his bag.
"Actually I have to go..My mom texted me. See you at school Adie." He stood up and flashed me a smile before leaving. He probably felt awkward, I accept that. Gerard sat next to me on the bed.
"Adie, we're going on tour and.." He started. I cut him off because I knew what he was going to say.
"And you want me to stay because of school." I told him, he nodded.
"But only for half the tour, we'll come get you for that last few shows." He smiled, I go really excited and hugged him. He let go to tell me something else.
"Also... Brendon Urie will hopefully babysitting you while we're away." Gerard made small jazz hand movements to get me excited. I was, I felt like I was gonna faint.

8 142Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!
