Adalene felt a little glum when she was denied the opportunity to kick some ass, but she supposed that was alright. The last thing she needed was an assault charge on her record. "I'll make you some coffee then, too early for day drinking." She said, with a snarky smile. "You're better than that, believe me." She then stepped away and towards the kitchen. She actually did have some nice coffee, and with the way today had been, she could go for a nice drink. Grabbing some beans from the cupboard, she measured and dispensed them into a grinder, before pulsing a little, and getting a kettle to fill. She opened it up and placed it in the sink, letting water from the facet flow into it. Shortly after, she placed it on the stove, and turned on the heat. Adalene poked her head into the room and said ," By the way, how do you take it?" She asked. She preferred black coffee herself, since when she drank it she wanted to actually taste coffee.

She prepared a filter, and set it up, pouring the grounds into it and placing it over a coffee pot. "It'll be a little while for the water to boil. But coffee should be up soon." She said, stepping back into the living room, and leaning against the wall. "About ten minutes." She didn't know quite what to do with the girl around, but she had too much free time today anyway, and it was nice not be be alone. "You're not hungry at all? I suppose I could throw some food together too." She wouldn't blame her if her break up had ruined her appetite, but she might as well try.

@FantasyChic Ms. Smith smiled slightly and shook her head. "I'll answer whatever you need." She said softly as she waved a waitress over and asked for a coffee as well. Her attention then went to Quinn when she asked her questions about her husband, biting her lower lip for a moment and nodded slightly. "Yeah, there were times that it seemed that he would be talking to himself, we don't own those blutooth things that everyone seems to have these days. And he seemed to be nervous or acted strange like someone was after him.." She answered rubbing the back of her neck and sighed slightly. "I don't know if any of that actually helps."

@Natsu Crystal gave Adalene a soft and friendly smile. "Just black please." She told her as she leaned back in the seat looking out the window for a moment as she noticed now that the weather was actually clearing up now. Then she turned her attention back to Adalene. "No thank you, i'm not hungry right now." She really wasn't after the fight and the breakup food was the last thing on her mind right now, rubbing the bridge of her nose. "Thank you so much once again for being kind to me."

@Morose @BlueSky44 Isley simply rolled her eyes towards Scott, she had a feeling that he wouldn't stop giving her any form of nickname he could come up with. Gideon stared at Scott and nodded slightly towards his question, they all seemed to be connected to the dead girl over in Philadelphia. "As much as I do hate it, but everything seems to have happened around at that time, so that girl is probably connected to us power wise and what not." He said Isley looked between everyone looking a bit confused, her attention turned to Janelle and nodded. "Yes I got really sick as well, and woke up one day and could control the weather around me." She answered rubbing the back of her neck slightly.

---

---

---

Olivia gave Claire a friendly smile and gave her a quick nod. "Of course a night out is always a great plan with you of course." Olivia said, blushing slightly as she got a feeling that Claire was checking her out. Which she wasn't going to say no to either, as she tucked a stray strand of hair out of her face. "Just go back to the office, and finish up one last report then call it a day then go back to my apartment where my roommate is, and help her out around with cleaning." She gave a slight shrug.

Olivia would occasionally look over towards Quinn as she continued to overhear and eavesdrop on their conversation, she couldn't help but feel that there are similarities to them. "Think that they are connected what they are talking about?" Olivia asked, gesturing towards Quinn and the grieving widow. Olivia took the last drink of her coffee setting her cup aside for now as she would occasionally look back at the other two ladies then back towards Claire. "So what time did you want to leave for our little casino excursion?" Olivia asked playfully.

---

---

---

---

The landlord leaned slightly against the wall by the door. "Just wanted to make sure that everything is alright is all, knowing that you got sick and all a few months back." She said, remembering the day that she had gotten pretty sick pretty well. "Anyway also rent is due in two weeks as well just wanted to remind you on that as well, have a good day miss Payne." She said before walking off, leaving Amelia alone to her own thoughts.

About ten minutes or so later there was yet another knock on the door, when Amelia looked into the looky hole in the door she'd notice that it was Riley waiting for her. After receiving her text Riley went straight away after she paid of course, Riley ran a hand through her hair before Amelia could hear Riley finally saying. "This is the right place right?" Riley asked through the door.

---

Her thoughts seemed to be in the right direction then. If Mr. Smith was similar to the woman on the news, or her nightmares, then this was all piling into something much bigger than a murder. She didn't want to trouble Ms. Smith any more than she already was. "It helped. Thank you for coming down. You're free to take his remains if you could sign this quickly." She pulled out the paperwork she needed to sign in order to take the remains.

Quinn's thoughts, meanwhile, were working overtime. What would she do with this information now? The next likely step would be to check in with the police to see where Mr. Smith was found and go from there? But her rational thoughts were saying to let this go. Move on and go back to work.

She couldn't do that though. This was all becoming too real. There was something bigger at work here.

---

---

---

“I haven't forgotten about the rent, I should be getting my paycheck next week. I will be sure to pay it as soon as I get it.” Amelia replied with hurried voice, remembering that fact. Rent was due again... so much money was going into the rent. In a way rent was the only way she could have a roof under which she can sleep, but then again if she had kept all the rent money so far, she might have been able to buy a place to call her very own somewhere out of the big city... or in a cheaper state. She sighed in relief when the landlord finally went away.

She then moved away and sat in the sofa again. Eventually a knock on the door happened again and Amelia carefully moved over to see who it was. When she saw it was Riley, she let out a sigh of relief and quickly opened.” Yes, the right place.” She said, quickly throwing looks both sides of the corridor in concern and slight fear.” Please, come in.” She added, eager to just close the door again and separate herself from the outside.” Did you have any problems while coming here?” Amelia asked trying to figure out a topic of conversation. She also had to make some coffee... or tea... or soda?" Do you want something to drink?"

---

---

---

---

Claire smiled and nodded, playing with the coffee cup.” Always a good plan if you ask me. I too probably have to do some cleaning, but I will do so tomorrow in my second day off.” She nodded and sighed. Frankly she was a step away to just calling someone to clean up the entire place and just pay them instead of doing it herself. She was not a fan of doing cleaning and while she kept her place clean enough, it's been a while since she's done stuff like cleaning the walls and so on. She had even taken off any carpets and just left it with the wooden floor because it was easier to clean than washing up carpets all the damn time. She put those on only when it was winter so she doesn't have to step on the cold floor.

“What do you think of 7pm?” Claire asked casually.” It gives us more than enough time to do home chores and the like, prepare and meet up. By the time we get to the casino it would probably be already past 8pm.” She added with happy expression, before turning her attention to Quinn who appeared to be in thought right now.” Hmm shall we get going then? I will walk with you to your workplace.” She smiled, pulling a pen from one of her pockets and quickly writing down her number and first name on a napkin, before walking over to Quinn's table.” If you wish to have someone to talk to about the dreams you can call me at some point.” Claire just stated with a casual smile.

"Figured something like that happened, pretty sure that happened to all of us. Being able to control the weather is cool though," Jason said, looking over at her. This girl was an interesting one to say the least, but being able to control the weather was cool. His own ability was a bit of a wild card, and he still wasn't too sure how it worked, unlike his sister's powers. The whole thing made his head spin.

Janelle said nothing when the others spoke, her mind was still racing with all of this new information. There were others like them, and the main connection was that strange illness, and that weird dream. Then they all suddenly had some sort of power or ability, and none of this was making any sort of sense to her. Why would there only be certain people who had powers, and why would their abilities be so different from one another? These questions kept zipping through her head as she listened to the conversation.

It looked to him like someone else might not like Scott too much, and he was happy about it. The guy had an attitude problem still, but if they were going to need to figure this all out, they would probably need his help. He just wanted to punch the guy, but was pretty sure that his sister would try and stop him, if she knew what he was thinking. Odds were she did, since she knew him too well, but there wasn't much he could do about any of it.

"It wouldn't surprise me if she was. Everyone who had that dream seems to have powers of some sort, at least so far. Odds are that she had some sort of powers, though what they were is anyone's guess," she said in response to Scott. It was true, the woman probably had powers, before she was killed. The questions still in her mind were why did they all have this dream? What did this have to do with them, and what would happen if they ran into the one who had killed the woman in their dream.

---

---

---

---

"Now, I'm no damn scientist - hell, I'm actually an engineer if you'd believe it - but this type of thing doesn't just happen," Scott pointed out. As his coffee was delivered to him, he called the server dollface before taking a sip of it and making a face. He really did miss Irish coffee and he'd had one within the last twenty four hours anyways. If he wasn't poisoning his body with alcohol, what was the point, really? "But also - why us? And do we have to go track down her murderer, because sweethearts, I ain't doing that for free," Scott scoffed.

Besides, he knew better than to go into work as a private investigator. Jade was easily the best in the business that he knew and he liked having the occasional hook up with her. If he started trying to steal her cases - or even just heading into the same exact profession - he doubted that that would last much longer. Besides, he wasn't a good person. He did what he had to do in order to get paid. Sure, sometimes people might think of him as a hero - but he had too much blood on his hands for that.

Adalene smiled, "Black's the way to go." She nodded, and stepped back into the kitchen to grab two mugs, resting them on the table in front of her. She heard Crystal thank her, and smiled, before looking back towards her. "It's really not a problem, don't sweat it." She reassured. It'd have been fun to visit her partner, but that wasn't something she was gonna push for. "Good things have a tendency to come back at you, ya know?" She said. Karma wasn't something she believed in that much, but it did make sense that being a good person made people more inclined to be good to you.

Adalene herself, however, was a bit hungry still, even if her gues wasn't. She ducked into her fridge quickly, and grabbed an orange out of it. She began to peel it, kicking the door closed before her. As she peeled, she stood near her garbage, dispensing pieces into it. Once she was done, she tore out a piece, and plopped it into her mouth. "So," She said, chewing as she spoke, "Where do you tend bar?" Hey, maybe she could at least get a few free drinks out of this.

@FantasyChic Ms. Smith gave Quinn a slight smile and nodded. "If theres anything else, or any other information you need please let me know." She said smiling sadly as she looked down at the paper, and started to sign her name wherever it was needed before handing it back to her, she then got up. "Thank you again." She said before turning around grabbing the bag of her husband's remains and started to make her way out of the coffee shop. There was a waitress that came over looking over at the girl for a moment. "Can I get you anything else miss?" She asked, if she needed a refill or not, Quinn would also be able to hear what Olivia and Claire were talking about she'd still get the occasional glance over by Olivia. And then Claire getting up, and handing over her number to her and Olivia getting up as well and she'd recognize Olivia as one of the medical examiners and one of the people from the dream along with Claire very easily.

@Damo021 He smiled and shook his head towards her. "Don't worry about it, we will handle it from here just take the rest of the day off. And if you want a free meal to go feel free it's on the house." He smiled towards her, and then looked at a few of the other waiters and waitresses. "Go on and get that area cleaned up." He said towards them, they all nodded and quickly went to work on cleaning up the area and removing the broken table. In the corner of Aaliyah's eye she'd see a man, in the corner of the restaurant his eyes trained on her as if he was studying her, he wore a suit with a tan trench coat over it.

@Morose @BlueSky44 "We probably shouldn't go after the person who killed that girl, but maybe we should try and get in contact somehow with the others who were in the dream?" Gideon asked looking at the four of them, giving a slight shrug. "I agree, we might be in danger, and so will the others in that dream to I know one of them is a singer over in LA from what I remember." Isley mentioned leaning back in her seat as she played with her hair for a moment looking over at Gideon, Janelle and Jason. "What do you guys do anyway power wise?" She asked.

---

---

---

---

Olivia smiled and gave Claire a friendly smile and nod. "Seven sounds like a plan to me." She said as she stood up and stretched slightly letting out a slight yawn. "And maybe a slight nap to wouldn't hurt either before then to." Olivia then took out her wallet and started to set down the money to pay for both of their coffees that they ordered. "It's my treat, and you can rack us up some money tonight with those awesome powers of yours." She said with a light laugh, Olivia started to follow Claire out, and followed her towards the front door, but not before Claire stopping in front of Quinn's table.

She noticed the woman walking off with a bag, wondering what they were trading then her attention turned towards Quinn, she recognized her at least once before. But Olivia never knew her name, but also recognized her face in the dream as well looking over at Claire when she started to write down her number and handed it over towards Quinn on the napkin. Olivia wasn't really so sure what to actually say towards Quinn.

---

---

---

Riley closed her eyes letting out a soft sigh and smiled she was glad that she got the place right, and made her way into the apartment once Amelia had agreed to let her in. "Traffic was a bit of a pain, but that's LA for you usually though." Riley said with a slight shrug and started to make her way over towards the couch, looking over at Amelia when she asked if she needed a drink and shrugged slightly. "Just some water would do nicely." Riley smiled towards her.

She looked around the apartment it did look like a really cheap place, but she couldn't complain either she had spent a few years after high school living out in her car. And that was a bit hard for her, after she had made it big in the music world she didn't have to worry about living in cheap places or even on the streets. "So what do you want to talk about or do?" Riley finally asked looking over at Amelia, she wasn't sure what they could do.

---

---

---

---

"Karma is always a bitch sometimes." Crystal said with a slight smirk, she just hoped that something would eventually happen to her ex, nothing like bodily harm or death, she wouldn't wish it on anyone at all. Crystal smiled slightly when Adalene asked where she bartended at. "McSorley's Old Ale House, I could get you a few free drinks there sometime if you stop by if you'd like." Crystal offered, in the corner of Adalene's eye she'd see an unfamiliar person, in her room but it was one of those people who were in her dream as well.

Emmie looked around, she was confused yet again she appeared to be in someone's apartment, looking over at the two women who were talking, only Adalene would obviously be able to see. Though she wasn't why she was here now, last thing she remembered was that she was in her own little hide out, and earlier than that she was in the FBI field office in New York City.

“Of course...” Amelia replied a lil nervously and moved to grab the bottle of mineral water from the fridge. Technically speaking this was the first time she had a friend over since she moved to this place. Back with her family she had friends coming over every now and then mostly to watch movies, play games and read comics together and generally do nerdy stuff. Since she moved here she had less experience with the whole socializing thing... aside a few anime/manga cons. Those were fun as long as she kept her face hidden in a cosplay mask of some kind or another and kept to herself. She did get to enjoy talking with people about random things though.

“I... don't know.” She quietly replied as she brought over the glass of water and placed it on the coffee table by Riley.” I've not exactly had many people over lately.” Amelia laughed nervously and sat on the sofa too. She threw a few concerned at the wall that was dividing her from the guy who was harassing her, but since she reassured herself the wall was there indeed she felt better and she wasn't alone so she cannot really display fear like that right?” Say Riley, have you met any others like us out there? Aside that man at the restaurant?” She asked, trying to pick up a random topic to talk about.

“I've not exactly been keen on searching the others from the visions and the dreams.” She admitted.” Been afraid someone might get hurt... Hell I nearly killed someone one night too because of this power... I cannot control it a lot of the time so I've kept myself isolated mostly.”

---

---

---

---

“Anyways, till we meet again, maybe in our dreams.” Claire added with a smile and simply started walking away towards the exit again now that she had given Quinn her contact number so they can maybe talk at a later date. She had the feeling the other woman will call her sooner or later. Given they were all tied into this mess without exit in sight, it made for a good reason to be curious and wanting to hear from the others in the same situation as you. That away at least you knew who you could talk about it with... and whom to be careful of depending on the situation.

With that done she turned to Olivia again.” Well for now let me escort you back to the office.” She stated with confident expression. She seemed to wait a few moments before she finally held out her hand in calling manner.” Come here, I've got only one umbrella and I'm not letting you get all wet again while I stay nice and dry.” She stated with voice clearly indicating she wasn't taking NO as an answer here to this situation.

---

"I'd show you my powers, but to get a better idea of what they are, it probably is better for others to mention or show theirs first. Mine is a little weird..." Jason said, looking at Isley. His ability to copy others powers was a strange one in his mind, and not one that could easily be shown unless there were others around him that had powers. He glanced over at his sister, curious about what she would do since her powers were a lot easier to show, especially since she had a glass of water with her.

Janelle thought for a moment, before she grabbed onto the glass of water that she had. A slight chill ran through her body, and a moment later, all of the water in the cup had turned to ice. "I can control and manipulate ice," she said simply, pushing the frozen cup away from her slightly. She tended not to use her powers if she could avoid it, didn't want to accidentally freeze someone or something, that could be bad if she did.

Jason gave his sister a smile, even though he knew that she couldn't see it, she always seemed to know. His thoughts went back to what Isley had said about maybe going to find the others. He nodded in agreement, "Yeah, we probably should. We had a visit with one, Cynthia Markov, here in Seattle. She's a prosecutor or something like that. Janelle and I were going to meet up with her when she got off from work," he said, looking over at her.

His sister nodded her head. "Yup, she was from the dream as well..." she added to her brother's statement, before waiting to see what the others would say or do. This entire situation still felt weird to her, but there wasn't anything that she could do about it, and if working with a bunch of strangers helped her out, than so be it. She just wanted to know what had brought them together, and what was going on.

---

Quinn wasn't exactly sure what happened next. As she watched the wife leave, some random woman came up and handed her a card. What triggered her was the mention of dreams. Quinn finally got a look at the woman's face and recognized her. She looked at the woman with her and recognized her too, even more so. A medical examiner, she was sure of it! And what did she mean?

What the hell was going on? Quinn shook her head at the waiter's question and stood up, nearly knocking them over. She had to get answers now. This opportunity presented itself.

She was outside quickly, trying to catch the women before they left. "Wait! Please, wait. You mentioned dreams. So you get them too? I recognize you both. What do you want?" This was potentially very dangerous. After all, they could just as easily wish to examine her for her other skills. But still, she knew them. Hell, she had a dream last night. If this was how she could connect the dots that were appearing, it was her best shot.

---

Scott wrinkled his nose at the thought of going on a global recruitment spree. Whatever type of team they were putting together, he had a bad feeling that the others were going to want to talk about their emotions and grow closer - that before the week was out, someone would make a tearful confession that they'd never known family before. He puked a little in his mouth just at the thought. His powers came in handy, but he really didn't need the Disney Princess Dream Suite as well. Or to broaden his horizons and meet new people. "Great, we're going to go look for Hannah Montana with the wonder twins over here," he said, rolling his eyes.

If it hadn't been for the fact that whenever he looked at Janelle, he felt guilty about his daughter, he would've just told them all to go to hell. He would have gotten away from this mess already, after a few threats for them to stay out of his head. He wasn't a huge fan of the idea of going to a member of the legal system, either. Or this share-fest round two - why hadn't Princess bothered to show up in the first round of sharing powers? Of course, he logically knew why but he was annoyed by principle. "I can move shit with my mind, sweetheart," he said gruffly.

---

---

---

Adalene cracked a smile at Crystal's response, and was about to thank her, and let her know she'd be undoubtedly taking her up on her offer, when her blood ran cold, seeing a person in the corner of her eye. Adalene turned on the spot, and clenched her hand into a fist. "I'm getting real sick of people just showing up in my apartment." She said, in almost a growl. Had this person snuck in when she stepped out for all of five minutes? Adalene was raised to be defensive, and it was everything she had to not just attack this person outright, but she She took pause for a moment. She realized she recognized this woman. This was one of the people from her dream, like the girl from before. That explained how she got in then, if like the other one she somehow had the miraculous ability to teleport in and out of existence. Her hand relaxed, though a scowl stayed on her face as she said, exasperated "Do you have any idea how you got here?" She asked, completely forgetting about Crystal for the time being.

Adalene rubbed her temples, almost having a headache from this shit. Hey, at least she'd learned not to throw around fire at these people, right? Giving a huff, she quickly remembered about her guest, and looking back at them to see if they were concerned at all. "Sorry about this by the way... it's been a weird day for me to say the least." She said, trying to fake a smile and blow off the situation like it was nothing, before turning back to face the intruder, a serious look quickly falling back on her face. She didn't want this girl just poofing away before she got some goddamn answers. In a disgruntled voice, she also gruffly said, "I'm Adalene by the way." She had to at least act civil if she wanted to learn anything from this girl.

@Damo021 The man simply continued to stare and study Aaliyah for awhile, until she went into the back staffroom of the restaurant there was one guy who worked as a cook there who was on his break. When Aaliyah came in he looked up at her and gave her a wave and went back to his phone. Groaning slightly as he heard his alarm going off, it was his time to go back to shift a few seconds later the man who was staring at Aaliyah had made his way back into the staffroom and blocked the door. "Hey there, I don't mean you any harm." He said calmly holding up his arms in a non threateningly way. "The name is Doctor Trevor Kingsley, I am a geneticist if I can have a moment of your time?" He asked her in a friendly way.

@Morose @BlueSky44 "I guess I can control the weather." Isley said, and just as she said that the raining came back, just as hard and then there was the loud clash of thunder that went off. Gideon turned his head as he watched the weather suddenly start to change, which was amazing to him as Scott said something about his powers. Which they had already seen pretty much, and they both watched as the cup in Janelle's hand quickly turned to ice which also looked very interesting to him. Then the lights suddenly flickered on and off throughout the entire store, Gideon decided to show off his to Isley. "I can do that." He said with a slight shrug. "That is pretty amazing!" Isley said a little bit to loudly causing people to stare at them. "So whens the meeting with this Cynthia chick then?" He asked the twins.

---

---

---

---

"Thank you." Olivia said towards Claire and gave her a friendly smile when she pulled up the umbrella when she turned her head to look over at quinn as she turned to follow them out of the café. She did want the chance to get to know her more, she did recognize her from the dreams. "I'm Olivia Johnson and that's Claire Winters, we huh sort of just bumped into each other. It's really hard to explain, but uhm we had these dreams of that girl over in Philly getting murdered." Olivia was comfortable about giving away that information, but she wasn't sure about revealing her powers just yet.

Her powers were a little bit weird, she had a very quick healing factor which was useful but also wasn't sure what else it meant or the other powers that everyone else had. "I was just about to head back to the coroners office, if you want you can come with?" Olivia offered and it was probably the best place to reveal her powers without people just gawking at her, she had shown Claire in a very public place which was probably not a good idea on her part either.

---

---

---

---

"Thank you." Riley gave Amelia a friendly smile as she took a sip of the water before putting it back down on the table as she looked over at Amelia and shook her head slightly. "Nope just that guy from earlier and that's about it." Riley answered remembering the first time her powers came out. Riley was a little bit to drunk from the night before, but she was actually lucky that her powers came out the way they did, she could have died that night.

"What about you anyone you have seen other than huh you and me and that one guy?" Riley asked rubbing the back of her neck slightly, she really didn't want to see who else was there in those visions. She was lucky that Amelia was actually normal and very friendly, she wasn't sure how many other people also had these weird powers or dreams either. "So how are your neighbors anyway?" Riley finally asked.

---

---

---

---

Crystal turned her head to look at Adalene and raised her eyebrows towards her giving her a confused look. "Who are you talking to?" She finally asked eyeing Adalene. She appeared to be talking to herself which was a little bit weird for her, but also just chalked it up as stress as well. "It's fine, I should actually be going as well." Crystal said as she felt her phone going off, it was her brother letting her know that he was actually there now. "Thanks for everything by the way i'll see you around, just swing by the bar anytime." She smiled before leaving.

Emmie turned her attention when Adalene snapped at her, she looked a little bit confused one of the women didn't see her, but the other one who addressed her did. "Hey, I cant control what the hell happens." Emmie said sarcastically as she walked around for a little bit around the apartment before turning her attention back towards Adalene. "Emmie Adams, I guess we are like the same then?" Emmie asked, she was still trying to figure out all of these weird powers, dreams and visions of people she had never met before.

---

If it was anything else, Quinn would think herself insane. Chasing random strangers and asking questions she wasn't sure she wanted the answers to. Still, the opportunity presented itself in these women she recognized from the dreams. The dreams that kept her awake at night. And given the number of coincidences she had been running into, she would have to be crazy to not follow up.

She nodded at the blonde girl, the one from the ME's office. "Yes, I am aware of the dream. Quinn Peterson is my name. I was heading back to my office anyway, so why not?" She should check back, but as far as she knew, the case she was working on was done. Just finalizing the paperwork, which she could easily do later at home.

---

---

---

Amelia felt a little bit nervous given the new information. It was not too surprising that they might not have met many of the others considering they couldn't be easy to find them because of the great number of people and the abysmal superpowered people to normals ratio that was forming in Amelia's mind. There was also the visions that were starting to happen during the waking times. Was this how it was going to be from now on? With frequent phantoms spooking them and losing control of their bodies just to appear somewhere else for a while?

“I haven't met anyone... When I'm not at work, I usually stay at home...” She admitted with quiet voice.” I've been afraid that the others might not all be good people and that I should stay away from them unless the government comes to hunt us or something...” She said with a nervous low laughter, wondering if Riley will laugh at her for her concerns. It was a fair concern though, imagine if you were a government person and you learned that there are superhumans with crazy powers? You'd either want to kill them, enprison them to not have to think of the danger or try to capture and figure out the nature of their powers!

At the mention of neighbors Amelia visibly flinched and she threw a scared glance at the wall. Naturally it was the man that was living next door that came to her mind. He was so scary, disgusting and every of his remarks towards her was filled with vulgar intent.” He... ahmm.. ammm... they are okey...” She said with unnerved voice, subconsciously avoiding looking at Riley's face.” It's all alright... we just keep to ourselves and rarely cross paths...”

“Riley what do you think will happen to us? Are we next after that woman?” She asked, hoping to change the subject, but then recalled the nightmare and felt like throwing up. They saw her getting murdered, but was it because the murderer was like them?

“Nice to meet you, Miss Peterson.” Claire greeted with a smile, throwing a look at Olivia. The cop knew that the Quinn woman will seek them out eventually. No way she'd miss an opportunity to talk with someone in the same situation. If she was in her shoes she wouldn't miss it either after all. She highly suspected she'd want to ask if they knew something which also wouldn't be surprising. They were all only human after all.

“Since we are all heading in the same direction, come join us under the umbrella.” She said with a grin, moving closer to Olivia and moving her hand that was holding the umbrella across the ME's shoulder, so Olivia and Quinn could get some protection. Her own shoulder would be exposed, but frankly she didn't really care right now, it wasn't raining as heavily anymore and she'd be out of those clothes, into a warm bath and into bed soon enough.

Jason nodded as everyone basically said what their powers were. He noticed how Scott didn't want to demonstrate his power again, it figured. The guy was really annoying still, giving everyone nicknames that he knows that they hate, messing around with them. The guy didn't seem to have a nice bone in his body, and for some strange reason his sister was completely okay with this. She was always a major softy, choosing to care about everyone else, but that could end up getting her hurt, and he'd do anything to prevent that.

"Jace was the one who talked to her. We were supposed to meet her when she got off from work," Janelle said quietly. She couldn't see the others demonstrate their powers, but she didn't need to, for everyone except Gideon. He was the only one who didn't state what his powers were right off the bat, so she had no idea what he could do. The other two were pretty self explanatory, since they flat out said it, so they were obvious. She wasn't too thrilled that Gideon hadn't said it.

He realized that Janelle had no idea what Gideon's powers were, so he leaned over and explained what had had happened when he had shown them off, before he sat back up to address the others. "Yeah, she gets off at four, probably could see about calling her again to make sure we know where we're going. Ended up having to memorize her phone number in order to make the call before," he said, looking at the others.

His sister nodded when he explained what had happened with Gideon. Now she understood why she didn't notice anything about it, but she did still find it annoying that Gideon hadn't verbally mentioned what his power was. Then she could have avoided the confusion all together, but no, he had to decide to be lame and keep it quiet. She contemplated mentioning this to him, but held it back, not wanting to cause any problems.
