"Honey, I don't have to be a psychic to give you your answer. Your skepticism isn't unjustified. But," She paused and she tried to find the right words, "How can you ever go on if you don't learn to trust? By being here right now, you're trusting me. I could have this place bugged, or be hiding cops in here, but you're still here. Why can you trust a complete stranger but not a kindred spirit of yours?"
"It's different." I frowned.
She put her wrinkled hand on my shoulder. "No it isn't. Go, find Ariana, and be with her. Trust her. Tell her about your powers." She watched me for a moment as I sat there. "Well? What are you waiting for?"
I left a generous tip on the table as I turned to leave. "Wait a second..." I spun around to look at her. I put my hand near my belt. "I never told you her name. I also only told you I was running from the police. I never said anything about my... powers." I was on my toes, bracing myself for an attack.
She smiled calmly. "Honey, I said I didn't have to be a psychic to see your situation. I never said I wasn't a psychic. Now go!" She smiled and shushed me away.
I ran out, fearing what else she might find out. Now, where to find Ariana...

Will She Lie for Me?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's times like these I wish I had parents. The supportive kind. Of course, I have parents- everyone does. Mine just happen to suck more than the average parents do. Most kids get punished for arguing. I get handed over to government agents for experiment. Quality parents, huh?
I write my story in hopes that someone out there will read this and understand me. I want to know if there are others out there like me, or people who would accept me for who I am. I also want money, so send some my way.
This document will show you a side of our government you've never seen before. By reading on, you agree that not only are you in possession of a probably illegal document, but you are also agreeing that my life is now becoming a part of yours. Of course, certain risks go along with being involved with me- you might even be risking your life by reading this. But hey, it's your life, so read on if you want. Well, if you're still here, I suppose it's time to reveal the nastier side of the government, they side you didn't think could exist in real life. Are you ready?
