A/N - Great to see the positive feedback. I most definitely did have to do my research! Haha so thank you! Glad you are all enjoying the story so far!

Here is the next chapter. The next one won't be too far away!


Beca stood frozen, only to feel her whole body begin to tense at the situation. Her eyes stayed glued to the boy in front, peripheral vision could find no movement in the deserted cul de sac street, and it was just Beca and this stranger.

"I know that you took my wallet, that is the last of my money and I need it" Beca stated, she decided to go with the truth, this boy was young, maybe around the same age as her. He reminded her a little of Jesse in the sense that he is just probably trying to survive.

"If you want it, come and get it!"

Beca expected him to run after his bold statement, but he stood still only clenching his fists.

He doesn't seem like an agent or anyone of Prism, but Beca couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to this, like it was a trap.

Beca went to take a step forward only to find he now ran towards a gap in between the houses. Beca followed suit, carefully she followed him down the gap and caught up, she grabbed him by the collar, only to feel the sensation of her own jacket being pulled from behind her. Beca ducked, turn and swung but nothing was there. Finding opportunity at the distraction the boy had ran at Beca and pushed her to the ground, jumping over her body back out into the street. Beca got herself up to follow but was tripped and again she now lay on the concrete.

What the fuck is going on?!

Beca could find no rational explanation for her trip. Only that someone had tripped her, but no one apart from this kid is around, who was standing out in the street and was watching the scene unfold.

Enough is enough I don't have time for this.

Beca once again pushed herself up and walked towards him, pushing her hand forward she propelled the boy backwards a fair distance into the ground. He got up quickly though and went to run but Beca now pulled him back, right to where he now crashed in front of her. Beca stared down at him "Just give me my damn wallet!"

Beca's footing was suddenly unstable, the ground shook harshly underneath her and was thrown backwards. Beca's mind was at a loss, it was no earthquake as the houses surrounding the street remained still. Beca got herself up and ran for cover towards a house. Planting herself behind a wall she peered back to the street to find the boy slowly getting back to his feet once again.

Suddenly a punch was delivered to Beca's midsection and was pushed back against the wall. Her eyes snapped back to find the perpetrator, a wall.

Beca ran back out to the street only to find that a fiery red head had now helped up the boy and was standing next to him, taking a mutual stance towards Beca.

"Enough" the red headed girl spoke.

Beca scoffed.

"We know who you are-"

Beca didn't even let her finish the sentence as she flicked her hands and pushed them both back, sending them flying.

However the red head was able to regain her composure quickly and Beca was suddenly swept off her own feet as she spun, as if in a tornado, she was in the air for a moment before thrown onto one of the house lawns.

Beca was in shock, but tried not to show it on her face. They've recruited people just like me?! Beca wasn't quite sure what to think, instead she opted to jump up and run at the girl, as she did this she flung objects like, mailboxes, fire hydrants which she ripped out of the ground even a burnt out car at the red head.

However the red head deflected the items by controlling the air she changed their course, which is what Beca was guessing. But she was not quick enough for the car, throwing herself to the side the car missed her by centimetres. She was again though, quick in recovering and back on her feet. Beca was still running nevertheless and swung at the red head, she swerved the blow and pushed Beca back. But Beca did not budge, and went to hit the girl again only to be deflected. The red head was now trying to do the same thing but could not land a hit to Beca as she deflected them also.

The boy stood there in awe as he watched the two girls. It was like an intense sparring match, there was so much deflecting of blows when one rarely landed the recipient would behave as if nothing happened. They moved all over the street.

Beca never tore her eyes away from the red head nor did she. They both kept their eyes locked as they traded blows back and forth. Beca placed her leg behind red's and was able to topple her to the ground where Beca followed to pin her, fist raised.

"I know you are with them! Just let me leave and I will not hurt you" Beca told her.

"We aren't with them!" she argued back.

The red head had her legs grip Beca's mid section and was now able to roll them and flip her to the ground, she was now pinned.

"Would you just listen to me!"

Beca didn't give her a chance, instead she used her power and flung the girl back. She was able to land on her feet though and Beca now rose to her own.

The red head gave her a questioning look, knowing Beca's intentions. Beca was not deterred, she again raised her hand and cast the girl backwards into a house wall. The same thing happened to Beca however, as a huge gust of wind lifted her off her feet and into the opposite house wall.

Beca's eyes were shut on impact but only for a moment. She slowly raised her head to find the boy still standing in the street and a red head on the other side of the street doing the exact same thing she was. Beca gradually rose to stand but used the wall as help, slumping against it to take breath. She had hit the wall hard and Beca knew she had taken some damage. Her arms were suddenly pulled back and constricted to wall.

She hissed slightly from the pain but did quickly to compose herself.

"Wha- the"

Beca now saw that pair of arms was protruding out of the wall, holding her own.

The boy and the red head now stood in front of Beca.

"Well that got a bit out of hand" the boy spoke.

Beca stayed silent, her face stoic.

"And for that we apologize" the red head added, "Beca we don't mean you any harm, we aren't Prism. This was… well a test we weren't completely sure if you were like us… possessed an ability. We want-… we needed to be sure. Yes we know your name, long story, most importantly we know about Prism, which we will explain it all to you soon"

Still silent.

"How rude of me, my name is Chloe Beale and this is...

"I-I'm Benji... Benji Platt" the boy smiled.

"That's great" Beca plainly replied.

Her arms were released and the woman who was holding them now phased through the wall beside Beca.

"And I'm Aubrey Posen", the blonde woman boldly stated as she now stood beside Chloe.

Beca bought her arms in to relieve the pain, gazing back at the wall the blonde had just come through.

"So you're the bitch who was tripping me, for a so called 'test' you got pretty physical" Beca said.

"I wanted to get you angry, see what you're really capable of, still I think you were holding back" Aubrey simply replied.

"She's right though, you weren't supposed to hit her Aubrey" Chloe added.

The blonde only shrugged.

Unexpectedly the blonde was pushed into the wall beside Beca, by whom they couldn't see. Beca knew better and she let a small smirk surface. The blonde was only pinned against the wall for a moment before she phased through. Aubrey quickly reappeared and grabbed at the air but nothing.

"I think it's her friend" Chloe stated.

Now how in the fuck does she know that? Beca's face stayed stoic.

"Call them off" Aubrey firmly ordered.

"I don't know what you are talking about" Beca simply stated. Whose face didn't change, not until the blonde and the other two had been swept to the side as a cord that had been sneakily wrapped around their feet pulled them to the ground, Beca couldn't contain her smile.

"Very funny" the blonde annoyingly said.

They unwrapped their feet from the cord.

"That's enough! Show yourself we mean you no harm," Aubrey stated firmly to anyone around them.

They stood and remained silent for an answer.

Chloe became frustrated with no answer in return, as did Aubrey.

Their answer was that Aubrey was pushed into Chloe and as they stumbled back, Chloe had tripped on something and they both crashed into the ground. Chloe however was quick as she created a wind vortex in the area she believed him to be. But nothing.

Beca stepped away from the wall and went to disappear down a back alley, not until Aubrey now phased through the house wall to stand in front of Beca.

She's quick.

"Get out of my way" Beca stated firmly.

"Why don't you make me?" Aubrey replied.

Beca watched on as the blonde was abruptly pushed into the into the opposite house wall beside her of the gap they had been standing in. Aubrey phased through.

Chloe had appeared out of no where and grabbed at the air, her guess landing on the mark as she felt her hand come into contact with a jumper. Pulling him back she swept at where his legs would be, correct guess as she felt him buckle.

Beca however stepped forward and with her ability picked Chloe up off the ground and threw her backwards, back out onto the street.

"Jesse run!" she whispered.

Aubrey quickly phased back through out onto the street to check Chloe, who appeared to be okay.

Beca turned in time to see Aubrey nod towards the boy Benji. Some sort of sign that Beca wasn't sure what meant but immediately felt uneasy.

Benji opened his mouth and a high pitch "KA!" resonated throughout. Beca cupped her ears, and fell to the ground, she looked to see that Jesse was now visible and doing the same.

Benji finally stopped.

They all slowly stood, and Chloe addressed the group.

"Now it's very likely that we've been exposed. We're leaving the area also due to Prism's presence. You should join us both of you, as I said we are not Prism, we have abilities just like you, who just want to live. We will tell you anything you want to know but right now we should really get out of this area"

"We can offer you food, water a place to stay, we aren't from here but we have been searching for others like ourselves" Benji told.

Jesse looked to Beca but her eyes never left Chloe's.

"Does she speak for you? What's your name?" Aubrey asked Jesse.

"It's Jesse," he plainly told her.

"Oh uh… and here" Benji took Beca's wallet out his pocket and passed it to her, she accepted and put the item back in her jeans pocket.

"After all that you expect us to just… come with you?" Beca mocked.

"You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by coming with us. That I can guarantee" Chloe spoke up.

Jesse scoffed, "Could lose our lives" he mumbled under his breath

Aubrey chose to ignore his comment, "She's right, we are just trying to save and help others like us. We don't expect you to trust us, we don't trust you. Trust comes later, right now it's about whether you want to make a change for the better, to take our offer and join us... be with people who all have a similar component in their lives and in the long run... retrieve some answers to the questions you have been asking"

Beca was at a crossroad for her decision. They seem true in their intent, they possess special abilities like Jesse and I but that doesn't naturally mean we all bond together like a family… does it? Jesse and I have. What if they really do have a stable place with food and water… what if… what if… what if. Beca's mind was full of them.

"Okay….. We'll come with you" Beca finally said.

"Finally let's get a move on!" Aubrey exclaimed.

Jesse was confused of how Beca would just so easily join these people they didn't know, however he did would join Beca no matter what. She was his family. Even still this was different, and was not overly fond of changing what they had done for so many years, just Beca and him, to now go with these people. From what he had seen and heard they had tested Beca, to see what her powers were, which didn't sit so easily with Jesse. He wasn't on board with this idea yet but he trusted Beca and her decisions.

"Oh… Great!" Chloe obviously seemed surprised, due to the fact she thought it would've taken a lot more to them on board, "Let's get moving then we have a ride over in the next street"

Aubrey took lead with Benji, Beca and Jesse at the back of the group with Chloe in the middle as they walked through a back exit of a backyard, which led to another.

"Keep a close eye on them" Aubrey quietly told Benji, he nodded in compliance.

Chloe looked back to see Beca and Jesse still following, she smiled and face forward continued to walk.

Beca briefly smiled then, keeping her face forward she subtly under her breath told Jesse, "Keep a close eye on them"

Jesse gave a firm nod in response.


Seating themselves in a black SUV, they had been on the road for a few hours now. Aubrey drove with Chloe seated in the front with Benji, Jesse and Beca in the back. It had been mostly silent in the car, with the radio on but turned low they were all left in their own thoughts, and staring out at the passing scenery.

"You're able to bend elements?" Beca's voice suddenly cut through the silence.

Chloe didn't turn but connected eyes with Beca through the review mirror.

"The basic elements, yes" Chloe answered.

"Wow, is it difficult?" Jesse spoke up, genuinely intrigued.

"It was, but I've been able to teach myself how to control it" Chloe replied.

"That's a very powerful ability," he added.

Chloe just nodded returning her eyes to the road in front, "Having the ability to be invisible must come in handy though, which you proved back there"

"It does have its perks" Jesse proudly proclaimed, "It's helped me in tough situations"

"Child's play with that stupid cord wrapped around our feet earlier" Aubrey's voice cut through.

"It was smart though, don't be angry because you didn't catch it" Beca stated.

Aubrey pursed her lips and continued her thoughts on the road ahead.

Beca just shook her head as she continued to look out the window.

"So Benji was it? I'm Jesse. What were you able to do back there?"

He nodded, "I'm able to emit a highly enhanced scream at a high amplitude"

"A.K.A Sonic Scream" Aubrey added.

"Very cool" Jesse responded, "It disrupted my ability before, which is clearly why you used it. How'd you know that would work?" he queried.

"I wasn't 100% sure it would work, more like 99.9%. It disrupts anyone really, ability or not" Benji simply told, "To be honest I'm still trying to get a handle on the different levels of sounds I can reach"

Jesse nodded in response, "And you Aubrey?"

She flickered her eyes to him in the review mirror but went back to the road, "I possess the power of intangibility. I can move through solid matter"

"Interesting, what does that feel like?" Jesse questioned.

"You ask a lot of questions, don't you?... I- I don't know how to explain it, what does it feel like when you turn invisible or when your friend there is able to throw objects all over the place?" Aubrey stated.

Beca glanced her eyes to the review mirror to find Chloe's.

"You're telekinetic Beca? You have some amazing strength, I barely missed that car before"

"Yeah uh… sorry about that. I got a bit pissed off receiving mysterious blows by Miss. Intangible over here" Beca replied.

"That's okay, you have nothing to be sorry for, you were doing what you had to do to survive. With that said, Aubrey threw gasoline on what should've been a small contained fire, so to speak"

Aubrey let out a long exhale, "As I said I wanted to see what she was capable of, and I still think we are yet to find out"

After a long moment of silence Beca changed the subject, "Where did you get this car? Did you steal it?"

The SUV looked to be an extremely expensive model, the interior was leather, plush, elegant, had a sunroof even the windows were tinted.

"I… earned it" Aubrey's tone, was that of a full explanation, clearly she would not be elaborating on the subject, "now why don't you all get some rest, we have a long drive in front of us"

Beca and Jesse exchange glances.

"How long?" Jesse hesitantly asked.

"Long", Aubrey stated.

Jesse sighed and slumped back in the seat beside Beca, head back towards the ceiling.

Beca was still staring out at the scenery; What the hell have I gotten us into.
