So... I am so sorry that this so late oh my stars it has been so many months since I have even opened my Wattpad drafts. Yes, I unpublished this story because I felt so unmotivated, then felt bad because I never even revealed anything. School starts next week so I want to get this to you before then. Reveal either in this chapter or the next honestly this story reveals itself to me as im writing it no one knows for sure when revelations will be made. sry.

"Ladies, we have a file on all the information that Nova has given to us, multiple witness accounts to the events of last night, and some camera footage from the night of the ball. We did not want to share this with everyone as to not alarm and cause a panic, but we have footage of Estevez being followed home, hit in the back of the head in an alley, and dragged by a shadow."

Simon was debriefing Nova and Maggie before they were sent off to find Nova's bracelet, and hopefully finding the person potentially posing as Atlas.

Maggie was listening and seemed to be paying attention, but one could see the underlying anxiety beneath her gaze.

Nova noticed, and made a mental note to have a well communicated conversation with her later. 

Hugh came up to them and added things to Simon's information.

--------------------------*LATER BC I HATE WRITING DIALOGUE* 

Maggie and Nova were walking down the alley late at night where Atlas was possibly kidnapped. Maggie was looking for clues with her prodigy powers while Nova was using her skills to look for signs of struggle or signs of where they might have gone.

They couldn't find much, so they decided to call it quits for the night.

"Would you like to stay at my apartment tonight? Leroy will be there, but he's harmless. He seems scary but is one of the best people I know." Nova offered. "You can sleep on my bed, since I don't sleep, but I have a spare mattress that I can pull into my room if you'd feel more comfortable that way."

Maggie seemed to weigh her options. After a few seconds of conflict, she agreed to spend the night.

"Hey Leroy. This is Maggie, alias Magpie, who is good at finding things and the value in them. We're working the missing Renegade case together. I'm also hoping she can find my dad's bracelet." Nova said as they walked through the door.

"I can help you find the bracelet. I loved it. It felt familiar..." Maggie trailed off. Nova could tell she felt uncomfortable being in the foreign apartment.

"Hey Maggie! Nice to formally meet you," Leroy winked at her. Nova didn't know what to make of that either.

"I remember you, vaguely. Hey Nova, I'm kind of tired. Where can I sleep?"

"Oh you can sleep in my bed. I don't use it often, with me staying at Adrian's and the fact that I don't sleep. The sheets are clean and everything's ready for you."

Nova led Maggie down the hallway of the apartment showing her the dark colored room. The walls of the bedroom are a deep blue, with lots of pictures of her team on the wall by her bed. There was also a picture of Nova with three people that Maggie didn't recognize. She assumed that the adults were her parents. Nova was also holding a baby in her arms who seemed to only be a few months old. Maggie knew that the baby was the sister that Nova lost. A beautiful Asian woman with dark eyes and hair drew her attention.

Maggie saw herself in the woman, basically confirming her suspicions. Nova saw a panicked look in her eyes.

"Are you okay, Mag?" Nova questioned softly, recently have discovered a newfound fondness for the young Renegade.

"How did I get my powers?" Maggie asked suddenly.

"You told me that a bullet have you your powers, right?" Nova sat on the bed and patted the bed invitingly for Maggie to sit down on.

"Yes, but— you were there that night, Maggie answered slowly as she accepted the unspoken invitation.

"What do you mean?" Nova asked suspiciously. She was getting worried. She didn't know if she wanted to know that.

"I have a feeling that... that... that thatlittlegirlinthatpictureisme," she said very quickly.

Nova heard her regardless of the speed of which she spoke.
