JACOB POINT OF VIEW

"Okay Emma. You know the plan..."

"Maybe...just incase let's review it." Is this even a good plan?

"I'll take the compass, and confront this hooded figure, since he's going after you, you stay on the opposite side of the building find out whatever you can about this dude, and leave. I'll meet you afterwards." Why do I feel like this is a stupid plan?

"No offense Jacob, but this is so stupid there are no words for it. We're not splitting up, we're better together, let's keep it that way. These pass two days we were hit with a humongous wolf, and poisonous berries, which was my fault the point is whatever came our way we were able to get through them together, and that's what's going to happen." She said grabbing the compass from my hands.

Okay then. That sounds like a good plan. "Works for me, but I go in first." She roll her eyes at me, but agrees. "Well we got to walk there first." She said starting to already walk. "We can't just fly ourselves there?" I asked hopeful.

She looks over at me as if I'm completely crazy. "Are you insane!? One we don't know if there's guards down there, two we draw attention to ourselves, and three we're only a mile away it's not the end of the world. Let's walk." She walks forward leaving me astonished. Wow, no one has ever told me straight up how crazy one of my plans are, or how crazy I am. Emma is a wonder, and a mystery unsolved.

"Okay, I hear your point, and your right I am crazy." She looks over at me a smile forming. "We're all crazy. There's just a difference between those who embrace it or not." She said waiting for me to catch up with her. Wow, just wow.

What is it with Emma? It's like she takes a concept, and puts it in a total new perspective. I don't know how she does it, but it's amazing how she can do it.

We walk in silence the rest of the way, and for once I'm actually grateful there was silence it gave me time to think of a plan once we get inside. How will we even pass the guards? Are there any?

We reach a nearby bush in about six minutes taking our time with a fast speed walk. For a human she's remarkably fast.

We look at the door covered heavily with guards at least five of them. "Snap it's worse then I thought, how do we get pass them?" She asked anxiously.

I don't know...we need a distraction. Or fight them off?

"How about we fight them off?" She looks over at me as if I'm mad. So first I'm crazy then insane, and now mad huh... I'll just take it as a complement.

Isn't it a good plan though?

"What gives you the idea that we can win? I have no powers, remember? We just need another way in." This is the only door to get in!

"Yeah, you may not have powers, and yeah there may or may not be eight of them down there, but one we fight well together. And two a friend once told me 'you don't need to use you powers for everything.'" She gave me a disgusted look, but slowly nods. I knew I would get to her.

"You know I really really hate it when you use my own words against me. Fine, you will use your powers, I'll just use what I have. You say when we go." She looks over to me a little regret filling her eyes, but she shakes it off, and nods for me to give the signal.

EMMA POINT OF VIEW

I'm going to regret this, but it's the only way in...there's not even any windows to break through.
