Dex tilted his head as he chuckled "Alright, let's get you some clothes so no one has any idea who you are."
"I have a few ideas," I said with a tilted smile causing him to look at me the tip of the red horns catching the light.

"Then let's get going, Moonlark." His demonic voice echoed in my head like it was tainting my emotions to feel fear, perhaps it was instinct, or perhaps it was on purpose, maybe he built something into his mask to make those who hear his voice become fearful.

"Alright, BlackDeath lets go, boss." I giggled pressing my thumb to the sphere and it blazed to life as the left arm wrapped around my metal one, but after a moment it sparked and broke apart. I blinked at the sphere broke apart also.

"Guess it was affected by the explosion." Dex's demonic voice rang but he sighed shaking his head as he stood. "let's go, we don't have much time before the police come." He didn't wait for a response as he wrapped his arm around my waist and took off through the hole in the ceiling he made.

We made it back to the plane and Dex asked "Do you have an idea for your clothes?" I nodded, even though it was a complete rip-off from the Neverseen clothes but if any elves notice it they would immediately leap here.

"How about we do something absolutely stupid?" I asked sitting on Dex's make-shift bed and Dex sighed taking off his mask as he rolled his eyes "Like what?" He asked tilting his head. I walked over to him and transmitted my idea to his mind. A complete copy of the Neverseen's cloak except for white and instead of a white eye its a black swan. Yeah, I know, so freaking creative.

"That," Dex said walking around me to pull a gun out from under a pillar "is actually not that bad, I know that its white, but the color really doesn't matter if you know how to hide right." I raised my brow, he actually thought it was a good idea? Damn.

"Let's go get you a cloak, Moonlark," Dex said with a smirk as he put his mask back on and handed me the gun as he walked over to his clothes and pulled a black hoodie over my head before handing me a hair tie and I put my hair up pulling the hood over my head and Dex handed me a weapons belt and I stuffed the gun into it. Though when I did, something hit me hard. If the time came, Dex expected me to kill without hesitation.

We made our way through the streets and he pulled me to an alleyway as a cop car drove by and his demonic voice whispered "There is a police clothing store up ahead that has cloaks just like the Neverseen's except white, we can find the black swan sign literally anywhere else, I want this cloak because it is re-enforced fabric that doesn't tear when flying, fireproof, and waterproof, it will be easy to get. Don't you dare hesitate to pull the trigger to that gun, if anyone sees us we have to kill them, ok Sophie?"

"Yeah, I get it," I spoke my voice steady.

We went in the back and we didn't run into anyone on the way in and Dex walked over to the power and ripped out a few wires and everything went black and the camera's that weren't even pointed in the direction we came fell. "We need to trash this place so it doesn't look like we targeted this place." I nodded and Dex grabbed my arm as he leads me until night vision kicked in and the man who was behind the counter roamed the black room his hands out in front of him. Dex tugged at the straps on my arms and whispered so quietly I didn't hear his demonic voice almost "Deal with him, I will reck everything." I nodded and my daggered where in my hands and I walked up behind the man.

He was innocent, he didn't deserve to die. I could feel Dex's piercing glare and I knew he couldn't trash the place until the clerk was dead, I took a deep breath and and shoved my dagger between the man's shoulder blades and he gasped as reached up to grab the blade of my dagger but I ripped it out of his chest before he could and he collapses to the ground with a thump, my blood roared in my ears and Dex instantly began to trash the place as he stole money and other things. before swiping the cloak and handing it to me. I wiped the clerk's blood on my jeans before taking it and we took off back to the plane.

I set it down and Dex set his hand on my shoulder as he took off his mask and he said "I know that was hard." I looked down, I took an innocent man's life because I needed a cloak so I could take more lives and get as little damage done to me as possible. I shrugged off his hand as I said "I knew I would have to kill when I accepted to stay with you, no need to apologize." Dex sighed as he tossed his mask away as he picked up the cloak and handed it to me and said "Try it on," I blinked as I asked "Now?" He nodded and I looked around if there was something I could hide behind, but there was nothing. Dex rolled his eyes as he said "I don't find you attractive anymore Sophie, no offense, but I will turn my back if it will make you feel better."

The way he said it, he was teasing me, he was teasing me because he knew I would have to adapt to being uncomfortable, he was teasing me because he knew a lot worse than having to change in front of him would come. "Its fine," I said as I stripped off my shirt and unbuttoned the cloak and pulled it on like a jacket and buttoned it, it was tight on my torso hugging my breast and bringing out my very small curves, it was more of a trench cloak than anything. the tail of it fell to the half of my calf. Dex nodded a tilted smile spreading over his face "We need to get some pants and boots to match it."

I nodded and suddenly he was talking but words weren't leaving his mouth, I frowned but a minute later I heard his voice "Anyways let's get going while we are still cloaked in night." But I frowned because I saw him mouth it before he even said it. 'Sophie?' Dex mouthed and he moved towards me and set his hand on my arm but I didn't feel the warmth of his hand through the fabric, but a minute later I heard him say "Sophie?" and a second later I heard him walking closer and then I felt the warmth of his hand, he examined my face and mouthed 'Are you alright?' A minute later I heard him ask "Are you alright?"

Then I stumbled back but I didn't remember moving than it hit me, I am seeing the future, only by a minute, but the future nonetheless.

Suddenly everything rubberbands back to he present and Dex had his grip on the back of my shoulders and he asked "Sophie!" I flinched "Are you alright? You zoned out," I blinked as I grabbed his elbows and said, "I saw the future, not a lot, only a minute, everything you did and said I saw before you even did it." Dex flinched as he asked, "You saw the future?" I nodded suddenly freaked out and I asked "Do you know what happened to me?" Dex frowned as he looked down and said,

"I think you manifested another ability."
