BACK TO TESSA'S

"you have to get away.....far from this place....if they find out"she pauses then sighs

"you would be killed"

My head throbs from hearing those words.....that's not true, she doesn't know what she's saying...
"what....do you mean?" I stammer but she just gritts her teeth in fear, I head over to the door "thanks for trying.....but I don't think you know what you're talking about" I utter making my leave.....killed?...she's really bad at her job......
************************

"hey, scar....want another tattoo?" Tessa smiles at me signaling for me to have my seat, but I stand

"what's wrong?.....you don't like your new name? " she asks feeling quite concerned, Tessa was the only one I could think of coming to....but should I really tell her?.....

"I don't know Tessa, things are really complicated.....you know one minute I'm in New York then the next I'm here, I don't just.....understand" I say looking down at my feet, she drops her equipment "are you sure you don't want to sit down?" she asks again and I shake my head

"remember the placement test" she says and thoughts of that big machine and Janice flows through my head.....the thoughts of being afraid to die if I didn't relax

"haven't you wondered why the machine needs you to relax to group you right? " she asks....i hadn't thought of that "see cana....the machine knows all about you when you touch it...your thoughts, minds and everything about you is linked to it" she says

"I've been told that already"

"but have you been told about the difference between the blacks and the blues?" she pauses then shows me the scar on her back, I trace my hand on it "that's what you get for being a black, the blacks are known for being deceitful and dangerous....they are the ones with the most daring powers....that's why we're being separated" she says

.....i still didn't get, how could being a black cause a deep scar like that?...

" I got that scar from one of my training sessions....i could never forget that day, the blues on the other hand have mild powers like reading minds, flying, telekinesis, teleportation, super speed, super strength and being freaking smart, that is smarty brains" Tessa says....it all made sense now.... Will could read minds, that's why he didn't need me to tell him my name.....i walk close to Tessa "then what about the blacks? "I ask

"we have the manipulators.....they basically control people to their own will, the shape shifters.....the time warpers....they can twist, bend and freeze time to their own gain....the electrist and visualists....you know heat vision.....and least I forget....the fire gods and the serpents" she says

"the serpents? "
"you don't wannabe with those guys...they control snakes and can speak to them" she replies but I just stare at her....all she just said doesn't answer my questions

"what?..... What is it? "she asks tracing her hand on my skin......i could see into the future....but I haven't had one of those in a while....i look at Tessa who looks expectantly at me

"what.....does it mean for your blood to turn black? " I ask and Tessa stops tracing my skin.....her expression changes.......she clears her throat "what did you just say? " she asks again as if she was scared

"what does it mean.... If you know....your blood turns black? "I ask again, she stands up "you should get going" she says

What's going on?.....why was she being so secretive....

I watch Tessa as she opens the door for me to leave "what does it mean?.....Tessa? " I ask but she just looks at me shaking her head in fear

"please you have to leave! " she yells at me.....tears bubbling up in her eyes "what does it mean Tessa? " I ask again feeling more fierce, Tessa walks towards me and sighs....i watch as her tears dripped on the floor "I'm so sorry cana....but it means that you're dangerous" she says

What did she know that I didn't....there was a reason behind those tears......a reason so deep that she couldn't say "that's not all, Tessa! "

"please you have to leave, please just leave! " she says engulfed in tears, I sigh walking towards the door......i still have a lot to ask Tessa...but..what did you mean by I was dangerous?...
