Chapter 8: The Tourist Trap & New Maris Tea Party

Cole and Cassandra collected more shards, adding to their powers, Cassandra caught her a bird. Getting an input of one of Wolfe's recording.

"Audio surveillance of Agent John White, File D045" "I have news. I've been promoted. I'm working directly with Kessler now." "You've certainly made a meteoric rise through the ranks!" "It's suspicious. Maybe Kessler knows I'm with the NSA." "What? No, he'd of killed you." "Maybe, Kessler says you're to deliver the Ray Sphere to Empire City immediately. What does that mean." "He's stepped up the timeline. Well, we can't give it to him. It's time to end this. Tell director Houston I'm ready for extraction." "Forget it. We're still building a case against the First Sons. We don't tip our hand until we've gathered enough evidence to bring down the whole organization. Until then, you stay where you are... and send over the Sphere."

The recording ends and Cassie plays the next one.

"Audio surveillance of Agent John White, File D102." "I was carrying the Ray Sphere out of the lab when Kessler stopped me... it was strange. He said I had an important destiny. That I'd accomplish great things." "I use to be a skeptic, but many of his predictions actually do come true." "I don't know. The way he looked at me. It made me want him to be wrong."

Then she pauses it and plays the next one.

"Audio Surveillance of Agents John White and Lucy Kuo, file D143." "Sorry for the radio silence." "John, what's happening out there?" "Tell Wolfe that is invention is a big success." "The Ray Sphere..." "Kessler sent it out by courier. To one of the labs. I thought, but... he must of set the timer." "God." "It was like a bomb. Five, six city blocks reduced to rubble, corpses everywhere, but there was this kid right in the center of the crater. He had survived." "A Conduit." "Oh yeah, a strong one, but wasn't the only one to survive, there was another kid, a teen, no older than 15, not that far from him, she survived as well." "Dear God. But I don't believe in coincidences. They both have got some connection to Kessler." "I agree, they're definitely people of interest, I'm watching them. But one more thing, there's a lot of conduits cropping up, far more than Wolfe predicted. The city's full of them."

The two exchanged continued to collect more shards in hope of gathering more new powers. But after the healed so many people, their bodies stood frozen like a stone as tattoos appeared on their arms. Cole has a symbol of greatness on one arm and a bird on the other. On Cassie, one was an angel's wing and the other a bird breaking free of the evil chains that bound it. Wings of goodness as Cassie would call them. Their bodies were released from the hold and Cassie looks down at her arms. "Whoa," she said in awe. Cole looks down at his and smirks a little. "Cole, Cole. Look," she said bouncing to him, he looks at her with a smile. "We match," she said with glee. He chuckles and pats her head, making her giggles. But then they say everyone gathers that the T.V on the other side of the window, the two exchanged looks and walks over as well, listening to the news as well. No one on the outside knows what happened, making Cassie look up at Cole, he tightens his fist as he was shaking with rage, but the rage was gone as he felt a hand gently touch his, he looks down and saw Cassie look up at him in concern, he smiles a little at her and places his arm around her shoulders.

They walk along the docks, talking over the dead drops they found and were trying to make a conclusion of what was happening, "So Bertrand work for Kessler. And he is a God fanatic." she states ad Cole nods at her, "And I'm just saying here, that if humans were "created" in God's images then he must think that conduits are the angels reincarnated into them." she states and Cole shrugs as he places his hands on his hips. "Don't know, it's possible," he states then his phone went off again, they stop and Cole answers his phone. "Hey, I rigged up a camera that won't fry when you touch it. I was hoping you could send me back some useful Intel. Let's make sure it works." Zeke informs them, Cassie looks at him and shrugs. "I've seen electric powered stuff around town we didn't have in Empire City. Some of it might be useful. See if you can get a few shots." he informs them and hung up, Cole looks down at the camera and then looks at Cassie, "Here, photographer, take some shots." he informs her, tossing her the camera. She catches it then giggles at him, they ran down the street and turn onto the alley and there that found the vertical pole. Cassie pulls out the camera and took a picture, she pulls the camera down and looks at the photo.

Cole looks over her shoulder and they both smile, but her phone went off and she answers it, "What is it?" she asks "The Militia's been robbing people at gunpoint. Sneak up on them and snap some evidence before you put an end to it." Zeke informs her, "Will do." she answers and hung up. They ran back onto the streets then ran down the alley making a few turns and spot the muggers. They crouch down low and then sneak up closer, getting the perfect view, Cassie pulls out the camera and she aims it perfectly, she snaps a shot and then nods at Cole, he smirks and ran at them, placing his hands behind their necks then shocks them and the drop unconscious to the ground. Cassie giggles as her phone rings again. "Militia's snatching people off the street, never to be seen again. Let's get some evidence before you dole out the justice." Zeke informs her.

Cassie nods at him, "Roger that." she answers and hung up. They two nodded at each other and they ran out of the alley, across the street, back into the next alley and as they turned, they came to a skidding stop as they saw the Militia ahead of them with the hostages. So they snuck up behind them and Cassie took the picture, then Cole raced forward and uses his Amp and cuts down the Militia, freeing the hostages. "Hey man, these pictures rock! Very nice framing. You should keep that camera in your bag, alright? No doubt we'll need it again." Zeke informs them and Cassie just smiles, Cole jog back over to her and pats her head, "Not bad, my own little Photographer." he jokes and Cassie just laughs a little at him.

~8~8~8~

The two walk down through the alley stopped a few muggers, collected a couple of blast shards and saved a bunch of wounded people, but their pulse touch was even stronger now, send out an actual pulse, healing, healing everyone at once. The laughed and high-five each other and then they ran forward and down the street and into the alley.

But the stop as the ran into the Militia, so they fired at them, taking them out and then walks up to the man that was waiting for them, he looks around then looks at them, "Saw a couple of supply boats coming in. you should threw their stuff overboard, burn it or whatever." he informs them and Cassie smirks. "Consider it down." she informs him, Cole nods at him and they ran out of the alley and headed right for the docks, the ran down the way and dodge the bullets that were being fired at them. Cassie pulls up her shield and Cole jumps behind her and he fires at them, knocking them off the boat as they walk up to the boat then Cassie drops the shield then she jumps onto the boat, pulling her whip loose and cracks it at the Militia, electrocuting, shocking, and throwing them overboard, Cole then pulls himself back up and fired down at the water, killing the Militia. Then they looked at the supplies and shock waved them right off the boat and into the water.

Then they ran to the front of the boat, looking at the next one and then the Militia on that boat then fired at them, but the two fired right back at them, knocking them right off the boat and into the water, Cassie fires at the water, killing them and Cole breaks crates and shock waves them right off the boat. They two pant and Cassie cracks her whip twirling it back around her waist and then turns to Cole, he looks at her, nods and then glide back over to the ship, ran across it then they jump down back onto the dock. Cassie exhales Cole looks at her and pats her head. She looks up at him and smiles, she admired Cole in every way and she hopes that she can be just as strong at him.
