A/N: I know this chapter is horribly short, but it's relatively important. I hope you guys enjoy it despite it's unusually short length.
Putnam's Daughter
Chapter 11
Emergency Meeting
(Caleb's POV)
"You're late."
"Caleb, get over it, it's only five minutes," Pogue responded.
"Pogue, I'm not entirely sure you should have been anywhere near Rei, whether any of us should be!" Reid burst out hysterically.
"Oh, really, why's that?" Pogue asked almost laughing at Reid, making my blood boil.
"You know what? Screw you, Pogue. SCREW YOU! If she's like Chase as I suspect, then you're going to get just what you deserve."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Pogue yelled.
"When Reid was playing pool with Reileigh her eyes turned black like ours do when we use our powers," I calmly explained.
"You guys are nuts! There are a few fundamental reasons why this is impossible. A) She's a girl; the powers go to the oldest male. B) She's not a descendent of the Ipswich Colony."
"While the first one is true, Pogue, it doesn't change what I saw. Every single time it happened she made a perfect shot. You can't ignore that. And we don't know her ancestry, she could have some distant descent of Ipswich," Reid responded.
"You guys, arguing solves absolutely nothing. What are we going to do?" Tyler interjected.
"We need to figure out what her motives are, and how the has these powers," I answered.
"How are we going to that?" Pogue questioned.
"How did we check Chase's background last year?"
"Do we really have to break into school again?" Tyler asked.
"I'm afraid so. It's better our secret be kept safe, and everyone we care about. She's Sarah's roommate. I'm not willing to take the chance she'll hurt her like Chase did."
"She really doesn't seem like the type-"
"Did Chase?" I interrupted Tyler almost yelling.
"Caleb, calm down. You and I will go get her records since Tyler doesn't want to, and I'm pretty sure Pogue will only assume if we don't find anything that I'm seeing things."
"Okay, that works for me."
"Sorry, but my parents would murder me if I ever got caught doing something like that."
"Tyler, don't worry about it."
"I'm going home. Call me when you know something," Pogue stated angrily before stopping up the stairs.
"So, when are we going to go get her records?"
"Sunday night, I'll be with Sarah earlier and you can meet me there."
"Sounds good to me"
"Until then if we see her or are around her what should we do?" Tyler asked.
"Be friendly, and don't let her know we have any clue about her powers," I answered.
