Arc: Level C [Continued]

April 12- Day 12G

I smirk as I continue to look at him shivering. He bows down and says, "I- I promise.. I will!"

I tap on the back of his truck. "So what's in here?" As a reflex, he begins to look up, though quickly looks back down as he takes a deep breath. He hesitates to answer, so I remind him, "Remember what I said."

"Ah!" he quickly responds. "T-the other Elites. And m-more doses... of the drug."

"The one on your arm?" He nods his head. "When did you first get this drug?"

"Y-yesterday," he stutters.

"Oh?" I chuckle. "Just yesterday?"

"Y-yes.... Though we injected the drug on most of the Elites already...," he explains.

"The ones that you own?" He nods his head once again. "Then....," I begin to say. "Do you know who you could've possibly gotten this drug from?"

He jolts once again as he fidgets with his fingers. "I-"

"Could that person have been an Elite as well? Did you not feel a single aura from him?" He remains silent for a couple of seconds before I say, "Answer me."

"I- I don't know! I swear, I didn't feel a single aura in him."

I move a bit closer to him. "Are you sure? Are you sure you weren't blinded by the drug right in front of you...? It admits quite a bit of aura itself." I scoff before I begin chuckling. "You really are easy to manipulate."

I quickly deactivate my ability, causing him to loosen up, and sigh in relief. It was probably mostly because of Skye's ability, which is what made him so tense.

"I'll be going now then," I say as I begin to walk away. "Don't forget what I said."

As I walk back towards the group, I take my hoodie down, and give a light smile once again. "All done."

"You think he's gonna talk now?" Ethan asks.

I nod my head. "Of course."

The group slowly walk back to him. Stylus walks closer to me and whispers, "D-did he see your face...?"

I scoff. "No, of course not. And even if he did, he wouldn't be able to do anything."

    "Mr. Siler." Ethan attempts to get his attention. "Are you willing to communicate with us now?"

    He slowly looks up at him, before he says his first words. "In the truck..," he begins. "You'll find everything in there." He slowly reaches inside his pocket, and hands a medium sized key to us.

    Ethan quickly grabs it, and proceeds to open the truck's back door. After a loud clicking sound, he opens the large doors of the vehicle.

    Inside, we see about 10-15 unconscious or nearly unconscious Elites. They all were swarmed with the same green aura, mostly coming from that mark.
