Kid

Kid almost jumped in her seat as she looked to him, thinking he was lying, thinking her hearing had finally dismissed itself, but Jason didn't show any signs that he was lying.

"We used your name, your real name of Jane Princely, and gave it to a correspondent of the Travellers; a woman by the name of Sunny. She's one of the highest party, gathering and social events minister, so she attends many of these." Jason opened the folder and took out a paper, "We figured if the name was used enough than someone would recognise it. And someone has." He turned to the window and seemed to talk directly to Neon and Mary, "You two would know of this man, he's formally known as Mr Mite."

Neon narrowed his eyes, Mr Mite?

Mr Mite...?

Mr Mite...

"He was the man who was kidnapped on the train. The train you disconnected a bomb on," Mary said, mostly to herself then for Neon. She was quite shocked actually, why would he know where Dominick was?

"While we don't have complete certainty that he is in fact there, we got a letter from Mr Mite stating." He cleared his throat, "'Travellers, it has come to my attention that you have a Miss Princely, Jane in your custody. I do not wish to alarm you, but the person you have under your care may be an imposter. If you would like certain clarifications, I have, within my company, someone who can clearly identify if the young woman you have in your care if truly Miss Princely, Jane or merely a poser. If you wish to take advantage of my source, then you are welcomed to come to my home, with the young Miss Princely, Jane, at your earliest convenience. I shall be within the country for the next month or so, but beyond that I shall be unavailable. Regards, Mr Mite.'"

Kid sat there completely shell-shocked for a moment.

They had found him...

They had found Dominick...

They had found Dominick!

Kid could hardly keep her feelings contained as she smiled, cried and trembled all at once. Jason stood up and kneeled down to Kid as she tried to collect herself of her emotions.

"But Kid." She turned her head to him almost frightened of what he might say. "There's someone else, isn't there?" he asked.

Neon could feel his heart dropping from behind the window.

Kid tilted her head, "Someone else?" she mimicked his voice.

He nodded, "I know there is someone else. And I know you brought them with you a long time ago," he explained. Kid bit down on her lower lip. "Kid, I don't want to resort to blackmail of any variety, or threats or anything of the sort because I don't want to do that to one of my agents. I don't wish to do that to a member of this odd family going on here." He picked Kid up and placed her on the table so she was standing, "but I would like to meet this person. I meet your friend, I take the both of you to your friend, is that fair?"

Kid felt a surge of anxiety run through her, they knew about Live. But how did they find out about her?

Jason pulled out his pocket watch and looked at the time, "Whenever you're ready, Kid." Kid stood there completely shell shocked, she was overthinking everything, two sets of thinking ringing behind her eyes. Jason seemed to smile, "don't you want to see Dominick?" he asked.

The phrase made Kid's head tick and her eyes go into a colour seizure as she tried to think whether to let Live surface or not... but she knew if Live tried hard enough Kid had no chance of warding her off.

Live could feel her fear and made Kid smile. Don't worry Kid. Let us mould together if you're that worried.

Kid closed her eyes and nodded to Live, her hands scrunched into fists as she felt Live mix together with her.
