One Special Purpose

"Hey hey hey, calm down! What's wrong?!" Madi says as i punch the wall.
"My fucking dad!" I shout. "He wants us to move, again!"
"Oh..." she looks down and grabs hold of my hand. Her fingers lace through mine, her gorgeous, blue eyes locking with my light green eyes. Madi has a special way of calming me down quickly. It's like she has powers, like me. One being the power to make someone so happy just by looking at them. I look down and she pulls me in close.
"Look Adam, listen, your dad is a good man. He's moving for your own safety, you know that." Madi sighs. "As much as you don't want to move, and as much as I don't want you to move, i think you should." She's trying to convince me to move, she's trying to let me go.
"I-I can't leave you. I don't want to. I love you, Madi..." i sigh and sob a bit.
"And I love you too, Adam..." a tear forms in her eye, and starts to roll down her cheek. I wipe it off and she smiles at me. She presses my hand against her cheek, and I move her blonde, long hair covering her right eye. I move her in closer to me and press my lips onto her. We stay here for a couple seconds, and wish that this moment was never-ending, like I could stay with Madi for the rest of her life. She sighs again, and breaks the kiss.
"Go Adam... please.. your making it harder for me.." she makes a teasing smile, but I know that it has no happiness within it. She's sad that I'm leaving, and I'm sad too.

The door swings open, and my dad looks at me, and his eyes move to Madi. "You guys need to see this." He quickly says, as we follow him down the stairs, into the large kitchen. Madi is the only person I've told about my powers, and my dad knows that I've told her.
"What's wrong, dad?" I ask. Madi looks over at me, and then at the computer dad was using.
"A news article.. says something about.. a man who had disappeared within flames to save a lady in a fire, wearing nothing more than cargo shorts and a tank top." I read over the news article, and Madi looks over it too.
"Could this be one of your people?" Madi asks me.
"More than likely. I'm 90% sure human's can't run into naked flames like that, unless you're wearing a fireproof suit." My dad answers for me. I look up at him.
"Should we go after him?" I ask.
"No. It could be a trap. Some of the Reaper's have powers like us. It could quite easily be one of them." My dad replies.
"Sam, couldn't other's of your people go after this person, thinking it's one of you?" Madi asks Sam, my father.
"Quite possible. But we still can't go, Adam hasn't developed any powers other than healing. He can't fight with that." He replies. I look at the computer again. I scroll down a bit and look at the bottom. I read it aloud.
"'The mysterious figure had refused to answer any questions. He had suffered no burns, but his clothing had been burnt.' The image here shows him and his arm, with a scribbly pattern on his arm." I say grinning. I lift up my sleeve on my left arm, and a pattern is there. The same pattern as on this guy's arm. "He's one of us, im certain." I smile.
"We still can't go." Sam destroys my happy mood.
"Why?" I question in an annoyed tone.
"Reaper's. They might see the article. Realise where he is." He moves his finger across his neck. I roll my eyes.
"A bit dramatic." I mutter. Madi giggles. "Well, I'm leaving in the morning." I say to Sam.
"No you aren't." He says, determined.
"I am, with or without you." I stand up and walk back to my room. Madi follows.

I sit on my bed and Madi sits on the edge.
"I'm coming with you." She exclaims.
"No you are not! It's dangerous out there!" I reply back.
"I don't care. I'm coming with."
"No!"
"Yes!"
"Nope!"
"You know, only 5 minutes ago you didn't want to leave me. Now you're saying for me to stay?" She smiles and moves over to me.
"I don't want you getting hurt. I'm not sure whether bringing my girlfriend on a recovery mission is a smart idea." I smile teasingly. I kiss her forehead, and she pulls me in closer. She pulls her lips onto mine and sighs.
"I'm coming with. No buts." She giggled.
"Are you laughing at the fact you said but?" I laugh a bit too, still cuddling Madi.
"Maybe.." we both laughed, and broke apart.
