Darreth nodded and turned, heading back to the hotel. They walked in silence, and once they arrived he turned to her.

She took him into the room he'd rented for her and shook- like a dog- then grabbed the bathroom and sat down on the bed. "Um..." she paused, looking unsure of where to start. "well, I don't know how, I just do it." SHe said, manipulating the water in the air into a form.

Darreth stared in aw at the water, his eyes moving from it to her. "I don't understand? Aren't you human?"

She nodded. "Yeah- I just have 'gifted' abilities," she said. "And those guys collect people like me for whatever reasons..." Laela looked away, putting the water into its original form.

Darreth drew straight, staring down at her in astonishment. "What do you mean they collect people like you?"

"They take them away from their home and put them in this testing facility- I think they use us for war and stuff with...I don't really know. I've also heard that demons collect us, because we're great for breeding." SHe shuddered- a memory behind that story. "And then, there's the eating thing- if you eat a special you can gain some form of their abilities...These are all just rumors, but yeah."

Darreth drew back in shock at her words. Anger overcame him suddnely, and he clenched his fist's tightly. He turned from her lest she see the fire in his eyes. "I can't believe I've failed to see this."

"FAiled to see what?" she asked, blinking in confusion. She stood and took the robe off, going to the bathroom but leaving the door ajar so she could hear him answer. She grabbed some other dry clothes and changed, then went back to the robe and slid into it and curled up on the bed, watching him. He's so handsome. she thought.

Darreth felt her emotions touch him and backed away. "Nothing. I think I will leave now. Are you going to be alright?"

She sighed at his leaving again. "Yeah, I'm fine," she answered, watching him with slightly saddened eyes.

Darreth stared down at her a moment. "Why do I have the strangest sensation I've met you before." When he realized he had said the words outloud he straightened.

Laela's gaze snapped back up to his. "You know, it's weird, cause I've got the same feeling...But I can't peg it quite yet," she said, laying back. Her robe splayed out slightly, revealing the clothes underneath. She'd changed into some ragged really short shorts and a tank top- both emphasizing her body. Her curls spread around her head like a strange halo.

Darreth allowed himself to stare at her a moment in longing before forcing his gaze away. "Laela...I just wanted you to know that your not alone. And if you're ever in danger all you have to do is call me and I will come."

"I don't have a phone." she said. "Nor do I know your number." Laela sat up, bringing her legs in into the butterfly position. Her ocean blue eyes met his, smiling softly. "How'd I call you?"

Darreth stared down at her in amusement before laughing softly. "No, sweetling. I don't mean call in that way. All you need do is say my name and I shall hear."
