Part 23, Sisters
We all sat in silence before a knock at the door makes us all jump. Layla was the first to move, peering out the window before opening the door while the rest of us stay in the living room and wait for her to return.
When Layla comes back, she is followed by Neon. I hear Mark and Jack gasp when she comes into view. Neon is in black lace-up boots, skinny jeans and a halter neck top. She had two guns strapped at her hips and her blonde hair tied in a plait. Her eyes glare down at Mark and Jack, but I see her psychically relax when her eyes land on me still in one piece.
She slowly walks over to me then places her hands on my shoulders, concern clear in her eyes. "We.. I picked up your power level all the way from home. What happened?"
"I.. I don't know.. I started stressing and Shadow didn't take over.." I trail off as I look over at Jack. Neon looks confused as she looks from me to Jack. I wouldn't be surprised if she could pick up Jack and Mark's power levels just like how I picked them up at the start. We all stand in silence as everything sinks in for Neon. She looks at me with her jaw hanging open and all I did was nod. She clears her throat before turning her attention on Jack and Mark. I can see them both shift under her gaze. I quickly explain everything to Neon before she attacks either of them. It took a while but she took it surprisingly well albeit a bit shocked.
Neon explains to everyone what we are facing before pulling me aside to talk privately.
