motions. Jinks watched the scenery seeing forests of trees in view that were appearing to be vast in his eyes sight and were trees of leaf and pine needles. He eyed the forest as the car drove by them on a long route then entered civilization as he saw the car drive by an intersection that had a house on one side of the road facing the forest he saw on a road as it was followed by more houses coming into view. He eyed the houses seeing that they appeared to be surrounded by trees and looked like they were mansions judging by the sizes of them and they seemed scattered by the lengths of lawns it took to get to the next house along with fences in front of them. Jinks continued to watch the scenery with interests as the car drove past a stone wall turning right at an intersection which he saw words on the wall.
He read “Kensington Orchards Estates.”
Jinks frowned at the name spoke “Driver?”
He heard “yes?”
He spoke “Kensington Orchards Estates? Where did that name come from?”
He heard “Oh that was from the Kensington family who originally owned the land and the apple fruit farm. A past relative sold parts of the land to people well known in the entertainment world who built their houses on the acres they bought. The area became known as by its name when a neighborhood was established. As for the apple farm and its lands surrounding it, it still belongs to the Kensington family and to you as well.”
Jinks frowned hearing the driver’s words as the Highlander became silent as he recalled a previous conversation with Lance who told him several things.
He remembered Lance telling him “People in the Master Organization after they passed away have been willing things to yourself over the years as you lived.”
He recalled Lance adding “Two of those things were money fortunes and land properties with houses on them now belonging to you as willed by those people as their last wish.” Jinks sighed recalling the TV news broadcast talking “There’s a Human god blared by the tabloids. Their hesitance to reveal his identity by saying that the male was rumored to be a billionaire.”
He frowned to think to himself “Billionaire? I don’t believe this. I’m very rich in wealth but I live quite isolated and not able to get out much due to the public’s scrutiny on me.” He paused to stare out the window seeing smaller houses that were closer together with no fences in front of them.
Jinks continued his thought “I’m surprised that I’m not living like a rich man flaunting his wealth to the public.”
He grimaced to add thinking “I really don’t want to do that. I prefer to live not doing that flaunting. It’s not appropriate for me as some Human god and leader of the Master Organization to do it. I don’t think Lance would approve of this.”
He got an image of Lance flashing in his mind and heard his father’s words speaking “Your right I don’t approve of that.”
Jinks frowned to think “You eavesdropping on me, father? I’m surprised that you can do that.”
He felt sleepiness leaned back shutting his eyes to dream of himself facing Lance who had an annoyed expression on his face that made him nervous.
Lance spoke with annoyance “Get it straight, Jinks. We share a connection due to you having my body and you being my son. The connection enables me to hear your thoughts.”
Jinks felt he more nervous as Lance’s eyes became black with a glare on his face.
He stared at Lance who spoke “I don’t find it amusing that I make you nervous whenever you’re in my presence which I can sense from you. I can sense your feelings from feeling it, so stop that behavior now.”
He gulped and willed the nervousness to go away and made himself calm as Lance’s eyes turned to Human blue eyes with a glare on his face.
Jinks frowned as Lance spoke “Our connection enables me to communicate with you when your not sleeping hence you getting images of me in your mind followed by my voice speaking. Remember what I told you and don’t ever forget it!”
He nodded his head as Lance forced his eyes shut.
Jinks found himself back in the car feeling vibrations overhead which he peered out the window to see an airplane flying overhead which he saw they were near an airport that looked private judging by the small airplanes parked in his view behind the metal rimmed fence. He watched the scenery as the car paused to hear the familiar gate opening sound then the car moved again. He continued to watch out the window staring at the planes till the car drove through an opening between two walls that were an airplane hanger room then parked becoming still. He saw a large passenger airplane sitting in the room with steps and two people wearing Master Organization military clothes and guns at the steps as the driver got out of the car. Jinks unbuckled his seatbelt and waited as the driver opened the door which he got out and was escorted to the plane seeing the two military men appearing Human flash golden eyes at him that told him were Builders while saluting seeing him both with reverence in their eyes. Jinks kept his mouth shut as he went up the steps into the plane seeing the cockpit on his left with two people having their backs to him sitting in seats and saw what looked like a living room with a hallway having doors on both sides with an open doorway at the end showing a bed in view. He walked further inside to sit in an armchair seeing it had a seatbelt which he buckled himself up waiting as the two Builders entered the plane bringing up the steps and locking the door behind them. He watched as they went to a couch and buckled themselves in with seatbelts attached. Jinks eyed the window next to the armchair to look out seeing the sedan drive away and watched the opening walls appear to be doors sliding wider apart as he felt rumbling vibrations of the plane moving towards the opening. Jinks kept his eyes out the window as the plane rumbled through the opening and then moved to the end of a runway before doing a complete full turn. He felt the plane pick up speed taking off running down the runway followed by feeling it lift up in the air as the ground became further away and the clouds came closer.
He sighed as he heard the pilot’s voice sounding human speaking amplified “Now leaving Marshall Airport to LaGuardia Airport.”
Jinks frowned hearing the name of New York City’s major airport as he heard a ping noise and heard the guards unbuckle their seatbelts which he followed their example. He felt an urge to stretch sat down on the rugged floor underneath the watchful eyes of the guards which he did his stretching exercises and swung himself up with a karate move. Jinks heard a ping noise and heard a guard speak “Seatbelt on now, Master.”
He went to the armchair and put on his seatbelt as he heard the guards buckled themselves in. He felt the turbulence made his stomach jumpy from its vibration as he looked out the window to spot dark clouds with rain splatters on the window. Groaning he continued to look out the window as the plane flew through a rain storm with turbulence making the plane shake. Jinks willed he to keep the contents of his stomach down remembering previous plane trips through storms and struggling to keep himself from throwing up.
He heard a guard speak “There’s a pocket attached to the chair that is holding a bag for you if you need it.”
Jinks felt for the pocket with a hand and felt the opening which he pulled out a large paper bag and held it in his lap as he struggled to keep himself from throwing up. He felt a large vibration that made him jump in his seat which he yanked open the bag and thrust his face into it as the contents of his stomach threatened to come up. Jinks felt the vibration stop breathe of relief to pull the bag from his face to hold it in his lap. He heard the familiar ping noise kept he sitting with seatbelt on as he looked out the window to see the clouds becoming white colored. He groaned softly as the plane flew and kept himself sitting in the armchair buckled in for the remainder of the plane ride with the paper bag held in his lap his head bowed staring at his free hand.
He again heard the ping noise followed by the pilot’s voice speaking “Now about to land in LaGuardia Airport.”
Jinks groaned loudly as he felt relief feeling the plane’s vibrations as it landed on the ground rolling foll
owed by coming to complete stop as he heard faint beeping noises. He sighed to hear the guards unbuckle their seatbelts followed by him doing the same. Jinks got up following the guards to the door which one opened showing a hallway which he walked out and heard the door shut behind him. Groaning Jinks cautiously continued to walk down the hallway to spot a Highlander wearing a suit and a tie standing next to a suitcase looking like he was expecting him by the expression on his face. Jinks reached the Highlander who bent down opening the suitcase revealing clothes and items inside it which he was instructed to put on his form. He obeyed finding that the clothes was a trench coat with a hat with long black hair attached forming a wig and tinted sunglasses along with fake ears to make him look like a Highlander which he put on his form. Jinks followed the Highlander out of the hallway that carried the suitcase with him and discovered that people didn’t seem to be paying attention to him but were ignoring him as he walked through the airport terminal. He followed the Highlander to outside to see a limo with a Highlander in a driver’s uniform standing in front of it seeing he opened the car door. Jinks got inside as the driver shut the door. He waited as the driver got into the car shutting the door.
He heard the driver speak
