The green hills and meadows had become farmed fields and then more and more frequently, suburbs as the overnight train rolled towards the capital. Garth was supposed to meet with Richard Simms, Dick according to Erica, for his next training assignment mandated by The Organization.
Not for the first time, Garth thought they could have come up with something a little more creative than their current name, but with secrecy being an issue, he supposed there was little point in arguing about it with anyone. In any case, his most pressing concern was how to remain civil towards his soon-to-be tutor, given the behavior he had shown towards Erica before. She insisted he leave it be, but Garth was unable, try as he might, to let it go completely.
This tutoring session was only supposed to last for ten days, affording them a couple of days of free time in the metropolis before he supposedly was going on to yet another tutor. There seemed to be some uncertainty whether that was the case, and Garth figured it relied upon Dick's assessment of his abilities. Yet another point towards behaving and forgetting the past.
Garth had spent a good many hours of their train ride lying awake, thinking about his powers and his situation. Not that he was not tired; he just kept circling back to Steven Schill's revelation that there were advanced applications, as well as his more or less ever-present babysitters. There were none on the train, but he had no doubt they would be waiting once they arrived at their destination. Garth accepted that he was, at least in part, responsible himself for their vigilance, but it still rankled and made him feel like an irresponsible youth.
Once Garth had been reasonably certain he was not being watched on the train, he had tried applying his powers to the other passengers, carefully, to try and discover if there was more to his power than he had first discovered. There had been no obvious revelations, but he had discovered some interesting details he had not previously noticed. It seemed as if each and every person had a more or less unique emotional fingerprint, something he had noticed early on as he could sense who he was reading or influencing once he had gotten to know them. On closer contemplation, Garth decided it would be better to compare to someone's face, rather than a fingerprint. He had a very clear, almost visual representation of the emotional patterns of a person, and as his finesse had improved, the visualization gave him a sense that most of the major emotional patters were in the same area. Like you would expect a person's nose to be roughly in the middle of their face, emotions like Arousal, Lust and similar were grouped close together. This made some sense to Garth, as these emotions often blended together, though some of the more compound emotions seemed to be the odd one out as they often consisted of many different emotions. These emotions were still difficult to visualize as well, more felt than seen, though Garth supposed his perception of these would improve in time as well.
All things considered, every feedback Garth had gotten so far told him he was way ahead of the curve anyway, so he decided to not stress too much about not being able to figure this out just yet. A modicum of patience was probably a good idea. He still wanted to know more right away, though.
His introspection was cut off as he sensed Erica starting to stir. She was sleeping on the cot opposite him in the not exactly spacious coupe. They had paid a little extra to have a big sleeping compartment, though Garth supposed big was a relative term when it came to trains. If he stood in the middle of the room he would almost be able to touch both sides, yet they still had been able to cram four beds into the space. The cot above Garth was empty, but a young student on his way home occupied the one above Erica. They had chatted a little the evening before, though not much as all three had been tired. His name was Robert, a twenty-something law student from the capital. He was on his way home for a few weeks of vacation before the next semester. He obviously had no real desire to get to know them, answering mostly in short sentences and not really engaging in the conversation. As soon as Erica had stopped actively trying to draw him into a conversation, he had pulled out a book and started reading. With that limitation on their conversation, Garth and Erica had silently agreed to just leave him be and talk about random stuff instead.
Garth had never been to the capital, though Erica had been there several times, so she filled him in on some key points of note, like places to see and so on. Soon after, they had all agreed to just tuck in and go to sleep. Even though they had boarded the train still a little weak-kneed after their farewell with Elsa, Garth had still been looking forward to some quality time with Erica on the train, if only to pass the time. He had had to settle for a silent peep show as she undressed and got to bed. Erica insisted on sleeping naked regardless of the exposed situation. Robert had been either uninterested or unaware of her nudity, though Garth had caught him giving her bared legs and ass a long look when he went to the toilet in the middle of the night. Regardless, he was still sound asleep above her.
Garth tracked Erica's emotions as she slowly woke up, her body mostly covered as she lay facing the wall. He gave her Horniness and Lust a tug as she started to rouse, and her response was immediate. As he watched, her cover slowly started sliding up as she drew it to the side, baring more and more of her backside. Garth was still unable to fathom how he caught this wonderful woman's attention at times. Now, however, he was satisfied just watching her as she bared herself for him. As soon as the cover was gone, she drew her knees up and her pussy peeked out between her soft thighs. Garth watched with interest as her emotions began roiling and a finger appeared between her lips, slowly stroking and probing the velvety folds. She kept utterly silent, though Garth could see she was getting seriously turned on. He kept the manipulation going as she fingered herself closer and closer to orgasm, her fingers wet and slimy with her juices. The muscles in her back twitched and spasmed as she came silently, still facing the wall. With her fingers still buried inside herself, she sat up slowly and faced him with legs spread wide. She arched an eyebrow at his tented boxers, licking her lips and making a show of licking her fingers clean.
Garth cast a quick glance up at the sleeping form above her, though he remained asleep. He smiled at Erica and crooked a finger at her, looking pointedly down at his cock. Erica smiled and slid down on her knees, then leaned in to nibble his cock through the fabric of his boxer. She sucked and bit and stroked, evidently in a teasing mood as she deftly manipulated his cock without actually touching it. Garth let her do this for a few minutes before he tired of her teasing. He grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled her up before kissing her roughly, and then he pulled his boxers down and forcefully pushed inside her mouth. Erica purred in approval of his taking control, and then slowly slid down until her nose rested in his pubes.
Garth let go of her hair and leaned back as she expertly sucked his cock, massaging his balls and tickling his ass as she fucked him with her throat. He closed his eyes for a second, reveling in the intensity of the feeling and let her do her thing. A sound in the hallway outside made him look up, just as someone backed slowly into view outside the cabin window. Erica had obviously not heard since she continued her enthusiastic blowjob. He considered stopping her, but when the back resolved into a quite pretty young woman with a cart of drinks and snacks, he decided to let this play out. Just as she turned towards their cabin, preparing to knock and offer refreshments, she met Garth's eyes. Her eyes widened slowly as she took in the scene, Erica buck naked as she deepthroated his big cock, showcasing it beautifully as she came up for air. With a firm grip of his angry red cock by the base, it looked like she was almost displaying it, though Erica was still not aware of their voyeur. She looked up at him, and then saw he was looking to the side. Embarrassment and Mortification shot up from Erica in a flash, but Garth just grabbed her hair and pushed his cock straight back down her gullet. Not before he could feel the head of his cock push into her throat did he soothe her emotions and make her more amenable to put on a show.
The young server, who was closer to beautiful than pretty, stood rooted in place as Erica attacked his cock with a newfound intensity. She stood with her mouth open and silent as Erica's head bobbed up and down, obviously intent on getting him off quickly. Garth had been getting close even before the young woman showed up, and the added thrill of her watching soon had him careening over the edge. Erica caught the first few spurts in her mouth and hovered above him with her mouth open as he shot several more spurts of warm cum into her mouth and across her face. Her face was crisscrossed with his cum, some leaking down from her mouth as well. Before he had time to gather his senses, Erica stood and walked towards the toilet next to the entrance, blowing the server woman a kiss from her cum-stained lips.
Garth figured he could do her one better and followed her, giving a show of his not-yet soft cock covered in saliva and cum. The server almost fell backwards as he opened the door, giving her a full frontal view.
'Excuse me, do you have some tissue paper? I seem to have made a mess,' Garth said with his best smile. Her emotions were almost pure Shock, though he caught a goodly undercurrent of Lust and Interest.
