The sound waves of voices aren't very loud, but for Elijah the can be heard from a mile away if he wished. Whispers were hard to detect, and so they are hard to amplify, but in his current situation, Elijah wasn't taking any chances. As he ran silently down the stone path underneath the streets of New York, he was able to make out the footsteps more clearly. The sound waves that were coming from their footsteps changed patterns, and eventually stopped. Something was going to happen, but he didn't know what just yet. Elijah slowed to a fast paced walk through the mucky sewers, moving silently like a cat in the night. When their footsteps stopped, so did Elijah. The tension that built in the few moments of rest was almost unbearable, the young man who could manipulate sound was about ready to turn tail and run. The only thing that stopped him was the stern voice that came from the two's direction. The man made it clear he was aware of Elijah's presence and was confident enough to be hostile without worry. Elijah started to panic. His heart beat felt like a hammer on his chest, the sound of his heart in his ears sounded louder than a bass drum. Elijah couldn't think straight, and all of a sudden everything seemed louder to him. The sounds were coming from everywhere, which only added to the anxiety he was feeling in this moment. One thing, louder than all the sounds of the sewer, that distracted him, was the sound of John's voice again. He said something to Amelia, about getting her to a safe place if this came to blows. However, it wasn't the words that caught his attention, but the tone, the sound waves fluctuation. He was also nervous. Thoughts ran through Elijah's mind, and all of a sudden he had a make-shift plan to deescalate the situation. But, he needed to calm his voice in order for it to work. Elijah didn't have room to make mistakes, if this went wrong, he would surely suffer the consequences. Elijah took a few breaths, and focused all his power into one area. The surrounding area around both Amelia and John. All the sounds that entered this area, or were in this area now seemed surround sound, making them seem like they are everywhere. Now, all Elijah had to do, was speak and it would seem as if [i] He[/i] was everywhere. Leaving Elijah no real option, he spoke in hopes to both confuse them and secure his own safety. Elijah spoke his most calmest of tones, "You wont kill me... You're not a killer." He paused to add dramatic affect, than continued, "I know you, John Gruger, and I know your partner, Amelia Kersey." Elijah paused, to see if he could detect any sound coming from them, and than he continued. Elijah squeezed his eyes shut trying to remember everything they said about their personal live in order to reinforce his plan. He continued to speak in his low monotone, "Both lived in Grayshire, Amelia living by the post office with her mother and Father, and you John Gruger, [i]Oh[/i] Mister 'Dr. Stigma'". Elijah tried to recall everything John revealed about himself, but he couldn't remember anything John said that may have been to persanol. So he bluffed it, like he was with this plan. "Don't even get me started on you, John..." Elijah felt like he'd said enough, anymore ambiguity might give away his plan, and spoil his motives. "I know both of you. Rip me in half? I doubt it. John, you're one of the good guys. It's why you're carrying Jerome Owens, Brother of the vice president of Jtechs, to haven." Elijah, didn't know if this was going to work, but he needed it to be believable. So he decided to incorporate some more 'reinforcement' . Elijah looked around frantically trying to spot something that was making noise, he spotted the nasty sewer water. He was willing to risk his hygiene in order to solidify the response he was trying to capture. Elijah dipped his hand in the water, and amplified the sound waves of the flowing filth. He didn't making the flowing water louder, instead he made the sound waves lower, creating a serious vibration that shook the ground. It shook underneath their feet. Unfortunately that Was the Extent of Elijah's power so he needed to wrap things up quickly. He spoke again, a bit rushed this time, "Don't try to find me. I can make this whole sewer coming crashing down." Elijah said sternly, bluffing about the sewer. "Just continue to Haven...." Eliajh was starting to feel the affects of of the continuous use of his powers. Elijah Stopped using his power, and waited, hoping they would just continue walking. [@Amelian Draco][@Wisp]
