Through All Ages 2

74th

They didn't say anything about my "new" appearance as a teenager with brown, purple and orange hair, which was surprising and confusing but I guess they just ignored it, or something? Maybe it was just not important. This wasn't about me and my ability. We had to find Martin and stop Ric.

I took a deep breath and tried to find a more comfortable position on the hospital bed. Agent Carter and the others looked at me. I knew I should have changed into my "old" appearance again, the tall blond woman, like Martin knew me but Jason said, change wasn't good now. Was he still on my side? He didn't wanted to expose me to them and show what I could do, right? He loved me, why would he do that?

I thought and worried too much again. Sighing I looked back at Agent Carter. He was probably just thinking about the plan, the trap and how to catch Ric. Would he really fall for me as the bait? Would he be fooled so easily? I didn't know.

I viewed Officer Salinda and Fabian. They seemed calm and nervous at the same time, it was weird. It was difficult to say what was going on in their heads. What would they do if they really caught Ric? Could they just put him in prison after his process in curt? Would he break out again? Could we even trap him?

Somehow I felt it all wouldn't work. Ric was smart. He wouldn't let himself get caught and go to prison. Or maybe he would, just to trick me because I thought, that wouldn't happen. God, I was so confused.

I looked at Jason, begging him with my eyes, that I wanted to be alone with him again and get out of this hospital. He understood. Jason talked to the police and they left the room. When they were gone, I sighed in relief. Quickly Jason glared at me to stand up and leave too. I gave him a sign I wanted to the bathroom and he nodded.

Carefully I entered the bathroom and looked into the mirror. I changed my brown, purple and orange hair back to blond and made myself 24 again. After I saw my familiar face again I had a really bad feeling of missing Martin. I nearly cried. I had to hold on.
Taking a deep breath I looked away from the mirror and wanted to leave as I felt some cold air in my neck. I glanced back at the mirror but I only saw myself in the reflection. There was no one else here. My heartbeat got faster. I viewed the whole bathroom but nothing. I thought Ric was here for a second but it didn't seem that way.

I took another deep breath and wanted to open the bathroom door as someone was standing infront of me for a moment but then he disappeared again. At was just some kind of a shadow. I wasn't sure what I really saw.
Was that Ric? Was he playing mind games with me again?
I viewed the bathroom behind me again and looked back at the door. No one here. Just me. I sighed and opened the door. My heart still beated very fast.
