Chapter 6 - Explanations and Answers

Claire's POV

When we took the limo home I was overloaded with questions, who were they? How did they know us? As soon I we got home and went upstairs to get changed, we all went downstairs and sat down to have a chat,

"Who were they?" Amy asked with a tea in her hand,

I put my hand on my chin, "Maybe there are some new savants in the area,"

"Good or bad?" Alyssa asked,

I sighed, "Both."

"WHAT!" They both screeched,

I rubbed my temples; I knew they were going to react like this. "I've been putting this off for a while because I wanted to gather more information but there hasn't been much time." I sighed annoyed,

Alyssa asked, "Well we obviously, need to know what you now, so explain."

I sighed, "Well when we were buying dresses, I bumped into a guy called Xav."

"Wait! That guy in front of that shop?" Amy asked curiously,

I nodded, "And well... he's my soulfinder." I blushed a bit embarrassed,

"WHAT!" Amy and Alyssa looked at me shocked, "You found your soulfinder?" Alyssa asked bewildered,

I leaned back, "Yes and he is annoying as heck,"

"How is he?" Amy asked, "I mean I thought your soulfinder was supposed to be your half?"

I sighed, "He's just so... laid back, he has fun, never takes things seriously and seems to think that this is all just a big joke." I huffed annoyed and crossed my arms, I looked at them and saw them laughing, "What's so funny?"

"It-t's just that he's..." Amy stifled a laugh, "PERFFECT for you!"

I scowled, "And how is he perfect for me?"

Alyssa answered, "Well your the opposite of him, hardworking, stubborn, serious and never have much fun. You need him for you to relax and he needs you for you to keep him in line."

I sat back down, "I don't need to chill, and I have plenty of fun." I stated while they gave an are-you-kidding-me? Look.

"Whatever you say Clairey, but deep down, you need him." Amy stood up and squeezed my shoulder and went to get another cup of tea, "Now onto more important things..." Amy looked at me serious,

I nodded, "The savants that attacked us, they were definitely after us,"

"How-?" Alyssa asked,

I grimaced, "I heard a few lines, they said that they needed three of them and they knew we were savants because when I was about to use my telekinesis to get you of his grip he yelled out, remember?"

Alyssa eyes widened, "Oh my god."

"Were valuable to them for some reason," I stated firmly, "We need to keep our shields up and our awareness on alert, there probably trying to get one of us to weaken us all, take one out and the rest isn't a challenge."

Amy nodded, "Were going to have to stay in a public place now,"

Alyssa stated, "We need to stick together more often, were stronger together,"

I nodded but frowned, "That will work, but it'll draw too much suspicion, were going to have to think this over carefully," They all nodded, "Alyssa, you're good at finding and researching without being detected right?"

She nodded, "With my powers they'll be easy."

I smiled, "Alright, I need you to research a women called Ashley Wilson; I heard one of the people talking about it, and do not, I repeat, do not attempt to do anything without telling us, she might be an ally or an enemy." I emphasized.

Alyssa nodded while I turned to Amy, "Amy, do you think you could back to the scene and see if he left anything?" I asked,

She nodded, "Got it."

I sighed, "I'm going to search the person up that I remembered and see if we can expect anymore of his 'friends' coming." I stood up ready to go, "I'm going to the town hall tomorrow and search them up."

"Um... Claire?" Alyssa asked nervously,

I frowned, "What?"

"D-Don't you think we should get some help?" She asked quietly,

I frowned again, "That would be great but it's not like there are- Oh my god no! God no! No way!" I exclaimed,

"But it would be a good idea." Amy stood up evenly,

I gritted my teeth and glared at them, "No, we are doing this by ourselves; we do not need anyone's help." I stomped off and slammed the door in their faces.
