Once we had Aiden inside, we talked about what just happened. How long have you known about his powers? Do you have powers? How old are you? Who are you? Where are you from? It was starting to get annoying. "I've told you a thousand times, I don't know any more than you do about this. And as far as I know, I might have the same powers as him. I might not." I told them. "See that's the thing, we-" Quinn was interrupted my Aiden's sudden coughing fit. We sat him up, and tried to talk to him. They both instantly went into reporter mode, firing questions left and right. "STOP IT! He just woke up, so back off while i talk to my brother. NOW!" I said, and they scurried away to the corner. "What's wrong?" I asked him softly. "How long was I out? Where are we?" he said. "You were out for about an hour. And we're in an abandoned house." I told him, gesturing towards the rather empty room. "Have you used the power?" he asked. "No." I said. Something was troubling him. I could see it. "Whats wrong?" I asked, but he was fixated on something. All of the sudden, he said. "RUN!" and bolted for the back door. Before we were out, we could see the arrows flying past us. "How-how did you-what?" Olivia said. "I could just, I don't know." he said. "THERE THEY ARE!" screamed a guard. We ran, but had nowhere to run. "I'm gonna have a fun time with you." a guard said, approaching me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him. His breath smelt like garlic and urine. I was so scared at that moment, that I just yelled. "ENOUGH!" and there was an explosion of light coming from my hands. The guard's eyes were smoking, and blood was coming out of them."Oh my gosh." I said falling to my knee's. "What have I done?" I asked to no one in particular.

I never thought it would be this hard. We were supposed to gain their trust and bring them to Kane, but more and more, I was starting to realize the fatal mistake we were making. There was no way Kane could take care of them. They were too powerful. We were supposed to bring them in before the Awakening of their powers. We failed. And besides, how could I betray someone who I was in love with? I can't tell them, and I can't not tell them. What am I going to do?
