@BlackPanther @Wick @HeloThe targets knew she was following them. From the moment they split that much was clear. The girl called Willa stayed back, almost inviting Jane to reveal herself, and so she did: Jane did not stop, did not hesitate; merely removed the glasses and walked right up and faced her.
"Why are you after us? You are one of us," Willa said.
Looking at her, Jane did not see any signs of wanting to either fight or flee. Neither did it look like a trick.
For a moment, all Jane did was stand there and observe.
Then out of nowhere, she dropped the glasses and stepped right up so they were mere inches from each other.
“Move a muscle and you’ll be dead before you even realize it,” Jane told her and meant every word. Lisa was on Jane’s mind, and the dangers this girl could potentially put her in.
“Who am I? Look at me. Who am I really?.. ,”asked Jane and analyzed the person’s reaction. The slight shiver, the surprisingly big amount of courage, everything. Another moment passed by where Jane’s pounding heart was slowing down to a more stable rhythm.
I've been played, she finally realized.
“You-you don’t know, do you? You really, really have no idea.” And with those words Jane’s entire body language changed. Her face loosened up, her shoulder lowered, and she took one long sigh, as shame rushed through her. The only person, she was angry at now, was herself.
“Of course, you don’t know. Listen, I’m not after you, or your friends, who no doubt watches us right now. But someone very dangerous is. Meaning at least one of you is a potential treat to them. One of you are a threat to Edge itself.”
