Claire glanced at him, her words stuck on her tongue while she was in thought. Something had ravaged the dead man's body earlier, what if it was still out there? The picture of the body and the thought of danger lurking around made her sick to her stomach.
Sticking together made sense, but even with their numbers, some of them didn't have full grasp over their powers yet. How would they defend themselves when something or
someone came after them? She feared the sensation of hideous talons raking and tearing at her skin or lying in a pool of her own blood, unable to breathe because her throat had been slashed open. Claire felt weak and was thankful for the fact that she was sitting rather than standing. She took a breath and cleared her hyperactive mind.
"I think sticking together would help us and I don't think we should be isolated either...I'd feel more comfortable with sticking with them than being alone actually." Claire briefly pointed to Artemis and Sam.
"Wherever they happen to go, then I'll come along with them. I just don't really want to be left in the dark when I'm curious to find out why this happened." Claire said to Leo.
"The man giving out the cards must've been happy to discover people who're affected like himself. I saw him and his friend enter the cafe, they were looking around at people and at us like they were searching for something. They obviously found what they were searching for judging from the way he was giving out the cards earlier. He found it in us...now he wants us to take this leap of faith and contact him. Matthew," She read the name from the card,
"isn't forcing us, so you don't have to contact him if you don't want to, but I want to think that the people openly displaying their powers or reaching out to us don't want to be alone in this dilemma and want to find others like them. I feel that way as well."Claire paused and looked around,
"There were a couple others at the cafe I wanted to talk to, especially a guy with Braum's shield. I don't think he's around anymore but I know I'll bump into him again soon..." A thought crossed her mind and she pulled out a smartphone from her pocket.
"I already have a coffee buddy, sorry Leo, Artemis beat you to the punch to that...Maybe you can just be our supplier supplying our addiciton since you happen to work here. Er, I can call you Leo right? It's on your nametag..." She rambled while pulling her phone number on display,
"But in any case, here's my number and my name is Claire! Oh, you guys too! My number! Look Artemis, he's our supplier for our caffeine addiction!" Claire waved to Artemis and Sam, and then gestured to Leo as well with an excited look on her face.
A faint blue flash appeared in her peripheral and her attention was drawn to that direction. Clare remembered the light from the gentleman from earlier with Braum's shield.
"He's probably still hanging around..." She muttered under her breath. Claire would get their info first and then check out the area where she had seen the shield. Hopefully the guy wouldn't get too far before she could.
