When Grant told them to wait outside, Diva started to stretch, though her attention was always for where Grant had gone. It wouldn't have been odd to find an unwanted visitor within, so they would have to be ready to either fight or flee. Considering their numbers, they'd probably fight, but if it turned out to be a particularly bad visitor, they'd have to run as fast as their legs could carry them. That would probably mean splitting up and running into the wasteland, which hopefully wouldn't happen since they had new members and they didn't know the plans set into place.

She was stretching out her arms, followed by a couple high kicks, when Grant finally motioned for them to come inside. Clapping her hands together once to release some of her pent up energy, she followed the rest inside, eager to begin the testing and training that was about to follow.

Rik was charged up pretty well. He pulled his hands from his pockets and moved away from the group slightly. He followed Diva's lead and began to stretch out his lean body. After he was fully loose and limber, Rik rubbed his hands together, collecting sparks into a tight little ball of lightening. He bounced it from hand to hand, it was like a ball of nervous energy in his hands. He always found it interesting that the sparks never left marks on his skin like it did when he used it on infected.

As Grant motioned for them to come into the training grounds, Rik tossed the ball into the sky, letting it disperse into the air. Rik rubbed his hands on his pant legs again as he walked into the training area where Grant and the others were.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jared had been watching the people around them, looking for something or someone. He just wasn't sure yet. Then a group of people caught his eye. It was hard not to notice them, the oldest looking male was large and impressive looking. There was a lot of them, three more males and two females. When he heard Emma speak and tug at his pants, he looked down at the little girl. "Oh, that's wonderful Emma! You're shock me when your drawings!" He said, giving the little girl praise. When he had met the little Emma, he had just been kicked out of his home by his father. He was lost and heartbroken, then this little ball of sunshine came into his life. He had decided then on to take care of her, protect her and praise her, do everything his parents never did.

When he looked back up to look for that group, he had lost them. He frowned, his blue eyes darkening just a bit. He ran a hand through his dark, shaggy hair. "I wonder where they went and why they went out to the wastelands..." He muttered to himself before turning his attention back to Emma.

Grant moved into the training area and watched as Richard settled to the side, Grant would be the test for how well they dealt with infected and Richard would be the test for how well they dealt with other broken. As soon as he entered the field of the old sports stadium and removed his shirt, tossing it to the edge, his skin began to streak with the two tone of his powers as his body grew and warped slightly, "Come now, fight. And Unless I say "Break" Don't worry about hurting me." When he was finished changing he lifted an enormous hand and pointed to Drake, "You first. Then Rik. Then Lilly." He said as he set into a beginning stance, "Just start how you would fight an infected alone." He told him. He then swung a fist, aiming a little high. He would keep fighting and changing up his moves until Drake was tired, he was tired or he felt he had a good sense of the man's powers then continue the process for Rik and Lilly.

Lilly frowned at Drake as he spoke to her, "I don't know how I couldn't let it get to me." She looked away, interested in the changes of Grant's body. The purple and blue was pretty. "But I'll try not to think about it anymore."

Trent smiled at her, "I only want you to see yourself how we see you. To us you're one of the most valuable in the family. The only one that surpasses you is Richard and that's only cos he gives us food." He started hammering away at nails.

Drake frowned at Lilly but didn't have a chance to say anything before he saw Grant change. "Now that's just weird." He mumbled just before Grant called him out. He let go of Lilly's hand and stepped away. His temperature rose sharply as Grant took the first swing. Drake proceeded to run around, throwing punches and other basic combat skills out. The hits were all enhanced by the heat but still didn't do as much as he would have liked. After being knocked back a few times Drake started to get frustrated. He charged at Grant, he fist pulled back and ready, but as a frustrated scream came from him, his fists erupted in actual flames as the temperature climbed. With his fists now flaming, Drake continued his assault on Grant. After a while Grant yelled Break and Drake let his fists drop to his side and he trudged over to the sidelines before dropping to his knees panting. "How'd... I do?"

___________________________________

Molly felt a small smile cross her faces as her cheeks flushed. She never knew that's what they thought. It made her feel better to hear it, especially coming from Trent. She jumped at the sound of the first hit of his hammer, but relaxed once she registered the sound, the smile still on her face.

___________________________________


Emma looked over in the direction that Jared was staring off at and then looked back up to him. "Should we go meet them?" She asked with a grin. Emma loved making new friends and meeting new people. Most she met however didn't like her because she was broken, but Jared was different, he was like her. He took care of her the longest out of anyone she had ever stayed with.

Pushing more hair out of her face she looked back up at him. "Before we go can you fix my hair?" She asked still holding on to his pant leg.

Diva let a whistle of admiration escape her lips as she watched Drake hold his own against Grant. The older man was certainly not making it easy for the younger one, but Drake would definitely be a force to be reckoned with once he had his powers under control. That, plus hand-to-hand combat, would make him exceptionally good at close range.

"Wow, he certainly knows how to make a good show." She said to no one in particular, her eyes completely on the match going on in front of them. Once Grant yelled 'break', Drake came over asking how he'd done, "Good. Definitely good. You'll be quite the animal with close-range combat once you've got more experience under your belt."

She waited for Lilly and Rik to be finished with their own assessment against Grant before she leapt into the ring. A devilish grin had spread across her face before she disappeared, only to reappear behind the older man. For the time being, she got her blood going with some good, old-fashioned combat of punches and kicks. Roundhouse kicks, high kicks, and sweeping kicks were just a few that she used along with punches that either consisted of a clenched fist or flat palm. Once she was throughly warmed up, she began to focus on using her powers. The shadow beneath her disappeared as she manipulated it to her will. It made slashes, a wall to block, and even tried to trip Grant up, but her manipulation was too slow to get a good hold on the man. There was also the fact that he was using it to his advantage and shattering her concentration at the work-in-progress by rushing at her. After a little while, Grant yelled 'break' and she immediately stopped, the shadow returning to its place beneath her feet.

She was out of breath, with some sweat beading on her forehead and beginning a torturous descent down her neck, but she was happy that her vision had yet to be affected by her manipulation.

Rik had a pretty tough time with Grant, not that it was really hard and he held his own against the man. After he had finished his fight with Grant, he felt a little more wiped out than he had been. His golden hair had fallen flat on his head and didn't stick up all over. He had sat down and watched as Lily took up against Grant, he had never really seen her use her powers before. It was interesting to watch.

When it was Diva's turn, Rik watched, his body recharging. He took everything in stride, making note of Diva's abilities as he did with Lily's and Drake's. He also watched Grant's movements, trying to assess his powers. Grant was very strong and powerful, he was one broken that Rik was glad on their side. Rik rubbed his jaw where Grant had laid a good punch on him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jared looked down at Emma, a soft smile on his face. "I think we should go meet them. But let's get your hair fixed before we do. You're much cuter with your hair out of your face." He chuckled, leading the girl to a rusted bench. He sat down, lifting little Emma up and onto his lap so he could do her hair. He pulled out a brush and some hair ties, then set to work on her hair. He never did do a good job with her hair, not having any sisters himself. He brushed out her dark hair then braided it into a slightly messy braid and tied it off with an elastic band that had a little red bow on it. "There, what do you think?" He asked her.

Lilly, after watching Drake and Rik fight, had gotten a grasp on the particular style of fighting Grant used. He was direct and to the point, he didn't try to hide where his fist would go next. Lilly when she fought him never threw a punch and her fet never stayed on the flat ground long but rather spent most of her time either dodging his fists or climbing up on him, freezing him in places to slow him down. She never got to stay on him long enough to do any actual damage. She'd always quickly be flung off. Grant decided to call break for her when he threw her into a wall, winding her. She returned to sit by Drake, shallow bruises opening here and there, the most prominent was a darkening at her right eye, as she caught her breath and Diva with the rest. She was certainly impressed by the woman, maybe even a little jealous, as well as a bit jealous of other broken. Her powers worked best in or near bodies of water but the others could use theirs near water just as well as away from it.

After his round with Diva Grant's body returned back to the smiling man he normally was, "Alright you all, you've pooped me out. It's time for lunch and we'll come back after." He said and motioned to them all. He stopped by Lilly with a frown, "When I next get the chance we'll see how well your powers are with water."

Trent finished his work in a couple hours before he climbed back down off the roof, "Come on. It's getting close to lunch time." He said, taking Molly's hand.

Drake looked down at his hand, his breathing still a bit labored. "safe to hold your hand yet?" he asked as he got to his feet and held his hand down to her. He had been able to rest so his temperance should have been back to what was normal for him. He was starving now. He hoped Molly had made plenty of food.

________________________________

Molly smiled when Trent took her hand and pulled her inside. "you get the roof all fixed up?" she asked as they walked into the kitchen. She let go of his hand to gather up some stuff and we set to making lunch. As she started peeling potatoes she remembered what grant had said. "Trent, can you go get Sara. Maybe she can help me peel these." she gave him a smile but kept working with the knife to peel food I her hands.

_______________________________

Emma smiled and swung he legs back and forth as she sat on Jared's lap while he did her hair. Her tiny hands played with the expensive necklace hanin around her pale neck. It was something she had always had and never took it off. When Jared finished she smiled and turned around wrapping he tiny arms around his neck. "thanks Jared, it's perfect!" her grin grew and her green eyes sparkled. Then she jumped down from his lap and took his hand. "Come on! Let's go talk to them! I want to make more friends!" she tugged on him until he got to his feet.

"Yeesh, what does that say about my endurance if I'm exhausted just from battling you?" Diva asked, wiping the sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. The mere mention of food made her stomach grumble and she was a little surprised. Normally, she could eat in the morning and not really worry about getting something to eat till much later. However, it wasn't every day that she was training with the others, so it was giving her a good appetite, "Okay, I am completely in agreement for lunch."

She favored her left side as she stretched out, Grant having gotten a good punch in when she had been concentrating too hard on getting her shadow to move faster, and figured she'd have to put a cool compress on it later. Maybe she could ask Lilly to make it an ice compress, though she didn't know if Lilly would like to use her powers for such a silly thing. Still, it never hurt to ask, did it? Yeah, she'd ask later after training was completely over. There'd be no point in icing her side when Richard was the next person she'd have to spar against. The boy knew his stuff, so she'd definitely be sporting some more bruises and possibly some scratches by tonight.

Lilly smiled, "Certainly is." She answered, taking his hand as she stood and moved her hands higher up on his arm, resting her chin on his shoulder as they walked, for once her powers had actually been helping her and as soon as he warmed her back up her face began stinging, her body worse than she thought. She ignored it as she kept walking. She'd work out the sore spots and pulled muscles when she next got the chance. "You're kinda cute when you get frustrated, you know?" She said seemingly by random but she'd been thinking of it since he'd fought Grant.

Grant chuckled at her, "Oh, but you've not had as many years with your powers as I have with mine I'll wager." He continued walking, glancing back to make sure everyone was following behind before he led them home.

"I sure did." He said as he went inside with her but at her question he nodded, watching her hand worriedly, "Yeah, but I'll have to move a chair so she can reach the counter properly." He warned before searching for her. He began to worry when she wasn't in anyone's rooms and the bathroom door was open so she wasn't in there. He finally found her sitting in the shade, staring off towards the direction Grant had gone to get to the training area. She agreed to help Trent and got up, getting up on the chair Trent had moved, warning Molly he'd moved it and where he'd put it.

Rik's stomach growled at the mention of lunch. He stood, his body recharged and his hair stood up in its normal way. "Lunch sounds good." He exclaimed, rubbing his stomach. He noticed that Diva was favoring her left side a little bit. "How you feeling, Diva?" He asked as he walked next to her. His jaw was going to be bruised and sore, his back, arms and legs. He was glad nothing was broken, he took a lot more hits than he thought he could.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Jared chuckled as Emma liked her hair. "Good. Alright, let's get going then." He said, as she took his hand in hers. His stomach grumbled grumpily at him. He sighed, knowing that they would need food. "Are you hungry, Emma?" He asked as they walked through through the marketplace.

"I'm feeling fine." Diva said to Rik, "Really, besides the punch Grant landed on my left side, I think I came out pretty good. Everything else were just grazes."

Looking at Rik intently, a quick exhale of breath could be heard coming from her. It was evident what was she amused her, "Well, you're certainly going to have a nice bruise on your face to show back at the house. Grant didn't really hold back with you all. You were all really impressive out there, even if you did become punching bags. Well...everyone went through that and look how we turned out."

She chuckled, sticking her hands into her pockets as they made their way back to the house. Diva liked how she had turned out by being with them all. The thought of what could've happened to her if she hadn't found them was something she rarely thought of, but when she did, she could agree that she definitely would have been warped beyond recognition in terms of personality.

There was also the fact that the town they traded with was tolerant of them, thanks to Grant. Diva had gone through towns were the sight of a Broken was considered a horrible omen and the Broken was chased away by any means necessary. There were even those who thought it was "great fun" to capture Broken and use them for their own twisted form of entertainment, whether it have Broken fight one another or hunt them down. It was those towns that enraged Diva and she wished that the Infected would storm them and wipe out every human that engaged in such activities. It wasn't a good wish, but everyone had such a dark wish come to their mind at least one point in their life.

Drakes face flushed at Lilly's comment. "Thanks?" he chucked and tried to hide the cringe on his face as he flexed his left hand. What ever Grant had down while fighting him, made him really hard when hit. Drakes hand was throbbing. He ignore the pain, it could have been a lot worse. He gently rested his head on Lily's as they walked. "Well you're cute all the time." He added with a grin.

______________________________________

Molly Felt for the chair placed next to her, just so she could gage where it had been placed. Then she slid a pile of potatoes over in front of it for Sara. Once the others came back she glanced over at Trent. "Could you start a fire in the stove? Got to boil some water for the potatoes and meat." Then she continued to prep the food. Hopefully she could get some gravy made too, have a nice meal waiting for the rest of the family when they got back.

______________________________________

The little girl looked up at him. "A little bit." She looked down at her stomach as she heard it rumble. "But don;t you want to find those other people?" She looked off into the distance where he had been looking earlier. Emma was too short to see anything but she tried as she began to chew on her fingers. "Do you think that maybe they are like us?" Her eyes seemed to light up at the thought. It would be nice to find others that wouldn't treat them unkindly.

Lilly stuck her tongue out at him, a childish gesture but playful all the same, She noticed the way his hand seemed to be bothering him though and took a hold of his hand, concentrating all she could on his hand, trying to get her powers to over come his but not enough to hurt him, just enough to numb his hand and reduce any swelling that night have started to occur. "Better?" She asked, her brow furrowed in concentration still. The amount of concentration she was putting into his hand took a lot out of her but she'd rest when they sat down for lunch.

Grant was relatively quiet walking back but he seemed to be really worn down. Not injured in the least but worn. It wasn't too long before the house started to come into view.

Trent nodded, "Of course." He kissed the top of her head when he had to stand right next to her and reach a little across to reach the matches. It took only a few moments before the sound of burning wood could be heard coming from the wood stove. He watched the two girls as they peeled the potatoes, practically hovering over Molly like a nervous mother hen.

Rik rubbed his jaw gingerly as he grinned at her. "Yeah, I guess so. I can take a lot of damage." He chuckled. "You were pretty good out there too. I think you and Lily need to use your powers more, make them stronger." He commented as they walked through the town. As they walked, Rik caught sight of a tall dark haired man about his and Diva's age holding hands with a little girl. He frowned, thinking that they seemed to be out of place in the town. "Hey..Diva, what do you think of those two?" He asked, pointing them out to her.


------------------------------------------------

Jared smiled at the little girl as he lead her through the open air market. "Don't worry, Emma. We'll see them soon. " He said. "Now what do you want for lunch?" He asked her as they strolled around the market. He wasn't aware of the young blonde haired man looking at him and Emma as they shopped for lunch.

"That's the general plan for me." Diva shrugged when Rik spoke about her powers getting stronger, "I've only used them for scouting up until this point and relied on Grant, Rich, and Trent to do the majority of the fighting. The Infected you all helped me with showed me that I need to train my powers more if I didn't want to become a liability."

After a few moments, Rik pointed two people out for Diva to look at. Right away, she could tell that they weren't from around the area. First of all, everyone knew everyone for safety purposes, and two, there was just something about them that was different. There was a certain vibe that was resonating from them that made Diva think that the two were similar to their own group, "Well, they're definitely not from around here and I'm getting a vibe. I can't really explain it, but it makes me feel like they're similar to us. What about them caught your attention?"

They didn't look like siblings, but neither did they look like father and daughter. The young man looked around her and Rik's age while the girl looked around ten. Well, at least they didn't seem threatening.

Drake smiled at Lily as she worked on his hand. He could see it draining the little remaining energy she had so he pulled his hand away and wrapped his other arm around her. "Thanks, it'll be fine." he gave her a smile as his stomach rumbled at the sight of the house. "You think lunch is ready yet?"

_______________________________________

Once the potatoes were peeled, she boiled them and mashed them. Then she prepared the meat with the last bit of vegetables they had. Once the meat was all done, she took it's juice and mixed it up and made some gravy for a nice meal. It would have been better suited for dinner, but the others had worked hard, they all deserved a good meal. "There all done." She smiled as she set the platter and bowls on the table for the others. She gave Trent a smirk and held up her hands, "See, not a single mark. You don't have to worry about me." She smiled and slipped an arm around him and gave him a hug. "It's sweet that you worry though."

_______________________________________

Emma shrugged her shoulders as she held on to his hand. "It doesn't matter to me." She hummed the same little tune she always did as they walked. Half walking, half skipping Emma looked around at the people, not the food. She was eager to meet the people that had caught Jared's attention. But food came first so she knew she had to wait. While looking around she found a couple staring at them. She smiled and waved excitedly for a moment, before turning back and seeing a stand with apples on it. "Jared can i get one?" She asked pointing to the stand.

Lilly shrugged, "I honestly don't know. Molly seems to be really on top of things. I think she's most likely gotten it finished." She looked at Grant as he turned around, seeing Rik and Diva begin to trail he waved a hand, "Come on!" He called to the two, "Aren't you hungry?" But he didn't wait any longer after that before he continued on and into the house. "Hey Trent! Molly! Sarah!" He greeted.

Trent's cheeks reddened, "Well.. I guess I'm paranoid. I tried being blind for a day when I was smaller and cut my finger bad enough that part of it's numb." He shrugged, "So I'm worried because of it." He turned as he heard Grant and smiled at the man, "Hey! Lunch is just finished." No one, Grant, Trent, or Richard had yet to noticed that Sarah was still as a statue on the chair staring horrified at the fire, locked into a particularly horrible vision.

Rik shrugged at her questions. "I don't know. Something just stood out about them. It's almost like they were looking for someone. Like someone other than the normal folk." He said. Rik shoved his hands in his pocket as they reached the house and entered. He stretched his arms up in the air after walking into the living room. He thought it would be best if he showered and changed his clothes before sitting down for lunch. "Hey, Diva, I'm going to go freshen up before lunch." He said to her before he started to head towards the hallway.

-------------------------------------------------

Jared grabbed a couple of apples and paid for them. He thanked the woman at the stall before turning around to Emma and handing her an apple. "Here you go. Anythings else?" He asked her. They were going to have to find shelter for the night soon, he had seen an abandon building on the edge of town. He figured that would be a good place for them to rest for the night. He had heard a rumor about a man who took in young adults and children who were different than normal people. The rumors had lead him and Emma to this town. And by the looks of that group he saw earlier, he figured that the rumors were true.

"Maybe they are." Diva said, "But let's not draw attention to ourselves, if that's possible. We can't let them follow us home, unfortunately."

Diva moved quicker when she heard Grant calling to them, giving a wave to signify that she had heard him. Once they had finally gotten in, the smells of cooking wafted toward her and made her stomach remark loudly that it wanted to be fed. She merely rolled her eyes, giving her stomach a light tap on her uninjured right side. When Rik said he'd go to freshen up, she chuckled, "Well, go ahead, but Richard is going to make you all dirty again when we have training this afternoon."

Walking into the kitchen where the others were, she gave a smile, "Hey, guys! How was the morning for you all? Didn't fall off the roof, did you, Trent?"

Her smile faded as her eyes fell on Sarah, seeing the girl rigid and with a look of terror on her face. Her heart clenched painfully in her chest, recognizing the signs that Sarah was having a particularly nasty vision.

"Sarah?" Diva said, unable to keep the worry out of her voice, "Sarah, can you hear me?"

She went to stand in front of the other girl, leaning forward so that they were at eye-level.

Molly shook her head at Trent. "You shouldn't try things like cutting if you've only been blind for a day. It takes a while to learn how to do everything." She grinned and turned to the door as she heard Grant. "Hey guys, just in time." She gestured to the table. Molly looked at Sarah when she heard Diva. "Sarah you might want to get some before the boys' eat it all." She was trying to include the girl with everyone else. But she noticed something strange about her color. It was kind of frozen, but twitchy. "Sarah?" She asked her tone now worried as she saw the signs of her having a vision.
________________________________

Drake nodded at Lilly as he squeezed her shoulders and entered the house with her. He put her hand onto his side as he grabbed his shirt from the stand by the door and pulled it on. Once dressed he led her to the kitchen. "Wow, smells great Molly." he smiled, not noticing that she was talking to Sarah.

________________________________

Emma clutched the apple with both hands and happily bit into it, She mumbled something but stopped and swallowed. "This is good." She smiled at him as she took another bite. "So now what are we going to do?" She asked after she swallowed her bite.

IT had started with the fire. She'd looked at the fire and suddenly she was in a different place, a different time. This vision was unlike all the rest. IT started at the end. Fire burst from Drakes hand as he shouted something to Diva over the roar, shadows rising to try to grasp the tree of an infected coming at them. They seemed sad, reluctant to fight back, Diva most of all. She got a glimps of vines springing from the creature before the vision changed to the beginning. She was talking to Richard, oddly they were smiling at each other but the boy got an odd expression on his face. Pain as his body shuddered and twisted, growing as it warped and became more plant than man. He rose a branch like hand as it began to descend towards her- The girl was suddenly brought back and seeing Diva in front of her so close she shrieked, stepping back and falling off the chair but she didn't stop there as she normally would've she caught sight of Drake and shrieked again, crawling backwards away from him but when Richard stepped forward with concern on his face but she screamed again, "No!" getting to her feet to run -well had she been able to move faster- past Rik.

Grant was frozen in place as was Lilly by the girl's sudden outburst and stared through the door she'd run through.

Molly had jumped when Sarah screamed. She had not been ready for the sudden outburst or blinding flash of color the girl emitted. She stumbled backwards into Trent, nearly knocking him over as she fell to a seat on the floor. From there she had watched the girl run off only after screaming at the other two. Sarah's color was normally like the others, but nothing like that had ever happened before. When the girl snapped out of it her color exploded and gave Molly and instant migraine. But Molly could see the fear, she could read it, she knew that that vision had to have been the worst one yet.


Drake stood dumbfounded when she screamed at him. He opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out. When Sarah disappeared he looked around the room at everyone. It took him a moment but he eventually was able to form words. "W-what the hell was that?"

Rik had been on his way to the bathroom when he heard a shriek. It was a familiar sound to his ears, he had caused that same sound to erupt from Sarah when he hugged her. She came rushing pasted him, screaming as she hurried into a room. Something took over him, something strong, a strong need to protect her to calm her from whatever she saw. He rushed in after her. "Sarah.." Was all he said as he swooped down on her and gathered her up into his arms. He sat them down onto a bed, he wasn't sure whose bed it was nor did he really care at the moment. All he cared about at that moment was calming Sarah down. He didn't know what she saw or how bad it was, he just knew he needed to be there to comfort her. He sat there on the bed with her clutched to his chest in silence for a long while, he waited for her to let him know she was alright.

------------------------------------------------

Jared put the other apples into their bag and kept one out for himself. He bit into the shiny red fruit, savoring the sweet flavors. He liked eating juicy fruits because it saved them from having to drink a lot of their water. "Well, I think we ought to find a place to hangout at until tomorrow. I saw a place not too far from here that would be good for us." He said as he finished up his apple. They had other food for the night, so he wasn't too worried about that.

Sarah's first instinct to being picked up was to struggle but it was weak, distracted. The tingling she got from touching Rik stilled her but she was too lost in her thoughts to acknowledge him. Richard. Why did it have to be Richard? They couldn't afford to lose him. They couldn't afford to lose anyone but especially not him. He made everything easier. He alwas gave more than his share. He gave then food to supplement what they'd earned, he did his fair share of labor, even comfort to those who needed and wanted it. It wasn't right that his own family would be the ones to end his life. Worse, they wouldn't be able to give him the burial he deserved. She never wanted to change an event so much before in her life.

Slowly, Sarah began to calm. As she did she drew her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around her legs. Suddenly a perfect circle of wet blossomed on the fabric of her knee, staining it darker than the rest. As a second one formed she became aware of how her eyes stung, the wheezing of her breath in and out her tight throat, the wetness on her cheeks. She never thought she'd cry over Richard, that she'd live long enough to see it. Her powers should've gotten the best of her before now.

Finally she was calm enough to speak, "You should go eat with them." She said, nearly a whisper. She'd essentially told him to leave but she didn't move away from him to let him up.

----------------------------------

Drake's question snapped the oldest member out of his shock, he turned worried eyes to Drake, "Um, That, was Sarah having one of her really bad visions. She's never reacted that strongly before though." The man was clearly worried about her but he stayed in the kitchen with the rest. He knew the girl would want to be alone, she'd probably disappear for about a week too. "Come on everyone, eat." He turned, meeting eyes with Trent who was squatting beside Molly, his hand in hers to help her up. The look they exchanged was worried and curious. They both wanted to know what she'd seen.

"Are you okay?" Trent finally asked.
