Changing Fates - Reid Garwin

Page 18

Caleb's on the highway, speeding through as he talks to Reid, "Hey, any sign of him?" Caleb's constantly checking the rear view mirror as they rush through their conversation, "No." There were only two places he would show up tonight, "Good, Listen, I'm on my way. If he does show, please promise me you won't do anything stupid. How's Sarah doing?" It's almost midnight and he could feel the ascension growing closer by the minute, "Yeah, she's fine."

All of a sudden, Chase appears out of nowhere, landing on the windshield. He stands on the hood of the car as the car screeches to a halt, no movement or words as they stare at each other.

"Caleb? Caleb?" He can faintly hear Reid on the phone as Chase breaks through the windshield, sending broken glass into Caleb's face, cutting his cheek and forcing him to use his powers to keep himself from dying. "What's your plan? You can't beat me, you know."

The rest of the windows crack and splinter before shattering as Chase backflips over the car, landing in the street as Caleb answers Reid quickly. "Something's happened."

He hops out of the car and looks for him but he's already gone, leaving Caleb to sigh angrily until he sees lightning strike the old Putnam barn and feels the power surging from the old building.

Immediately taking off and running towards it.
