A bit more about the Strays

I thought I'd tell you a bit more about the Strays. Each Stray has a special ability, a bit like the Flock from Maximum Ride.
Ruth has mind reading and control. She can talk with her mind and if she tries really hard she can "lock" onto some one's mind and copy their exact movements. She can also explore someone mind while "locking on". Another thing she can do (pretty scary, isn't she) is pull a memory or though from you past and make you think it again, totally distracting the recipient.
Jen has a pretty simple ability, mimicking. she can mimic anything she has ever heard, including an inhuman noise like a car staring or a door closing.
Addz can control feelings and emotions, as well as whether you like him or not. Really handy when they get themselves in a tight spot.
James can touch a book and then he has read it, or got all the information. Speed reader or what?
Becky can disappear and teleport. Good for when she is late to meet someone.
Ali is the computer whiz. She can get all the password from the hard-drive in a matter of seconds. Great if they want to order some food but can't get the phone number.
Nick, when he is allowed to use it has super speed. Speedy Baby!
Jeff can talk to animals. Not just cats, like the rest of the Strays. He could talk to an ant if he wanted to. Not really that helpful but, hey.
That's basically all their talents, apart from the fact that they can all talk with their minds, to each other only, but only when they are in their cat form.
