The voice, which had been clearly heard by all three of them, was apparently disembodied as the utterer was nowhere in sight. Ivy put a protective hand on Jade's shoulder and pushed her back towards Aphrodite.
"Stay here." she commanded.
Ivy moved further into the alleyway, focusing her telepathic powers in case she came upon an unguarded mind. After only a few seconds, she identified another person in their vicinity.
"Come out from behind that wall!" she called out to Mei.
