A/N: Thanks for all your reviews! Glad you guys are enjoying this!


"Did I interrupt anything?" Noah watched as the door slammed shut as Nathan had just walked out annoyed.

I shook my head and wrapped my sweater tighter around myself. "No, you came at a perfect time." I still felt my cheeks were very hot. Someone finding out about Nathan and me was the last thing I needed, especially if that person was to make assumptions.

"Well he looked a little annoyed." Noah shrug off his coat and threw it on the chair. "You know you can talk to me if something is troubling you."

I felt very exposed. "I thought you were just Angela Petrelli's guy who did the work and no questions."

He shook his head and laughed. "Not all the time."

I smirked and went to pour myself some of that liquor Nathan was having earlier. "He came to simply see how I was holding up."

"You aren't a really good liar." He pointed out. "Nathan is a man with lots of stress on his shoulders not to mention an incapable wife who cannot satisfy him, henceforth the man has needs."

I handed Noah a glass and took a swig of my own. "Well I made it clear that I will not be the one to satisfy those needs."

"Good, you kept your ground. And being further involved with the Petrelli's isn't such a good idea." Noah raised the glass to his nose and inhaled the strong scent of the gold liquid.

"I guess you're right." I couldn't help but agree with him. Getting into deep with the Petrelli's wasn't my idea for my new future. I was extremely grateful to them but I also didn't want to be in debt with them my entire life.

"Alright now with that set aside, we have to go." Noah put on his coat and headed for the door.

"Wait, what?" I was really confused and I was becoming sick because of it. "Where are we going?"

Noah opened the door and waited for me to step through. "Its one last thing I have to take care of before I leave you to your new life."


I had absolutely no clue where we were. It seemed to be the country because the city of London was now an hour away from the fortress that resembled a castle. Noah pulled up to the front of the building and smirked at me to reassure me that everything was alright. Except that I wasn't fine nor relaxed, in fact my current feeling at the moment was anxiety.

"What is this place?" I asked as I wearily went up the stone steps that led to the large wooden doors.

"A place for people like you." He simply answered as he swiped his key card under a subtle scanner that was disguised as a huge brass knocker.

"Wait, what do you actually plan to have me do here." Was I to be confused forever?

"You will see." Noah gave me a little shove through the doors.

"Must you always be so cryptic? Its very unsettling." I stated as we walked through the long dark halls where all the doors were shut closed. Ahead of me there was a young woman and a man talking in whispers.

"It comes with the job." Noah placed his hand on my shoulder as he led me down the hall.

"Noah!" The young woman that was talking to the man in whispers beamed as we approached.

"Christina, its nice to see you again." Noah let go of me and greeted the young woman who was very pretty. She could be described as an English rose with her pale skin, green eyes and long brown hair curled to perfection. Despite the intimidating outfit of all black and black knee high leather boots, she seemed very sweet and welcoming.

"Its been long since I have seen you Noah."

"Far too long." Noah admitted. "This is Aubri Deline, we just got her settled into her new apartment."

Christina gave him a knowing look and he slowly nodded. "Oh, well welcome to England! Its nice to meet you! I read your file. You are one of the rare ones, I must say."

"Thank you, its nice to meet you Christina." I extended my hand toward her which she gladly took it.

"Well ladies I'd say we get the show on the road." Noah stated as he began to lead the way down the hall.

"Wait, Noah I think it best if we evaluate her first. Lets see how it works." Christina stopped in the middle of the hallway.

"Christina, I don't think it would be wise. She is not joining, in which case I don't think that would be necessary."

I stood frozen in the midst of all of this as I had no idea what they were talking about. I watched as they decided my next move.

"Damien feels that if he was to watch over her while she lives in England then she must very much consider becoming an agent."

Noah shook his head vehemently. "That was not the settlement Angela Petrelli had informed me about."

"Then I guess we must take her to Damien before anything is finalized." Christina turned and headed toward the elevator doors.

Noah gave me another look of reassurance as we both followed Christina into the elevator.

While in the elevator, Christina noticed my uneasy behavior. "Don't worry, Damien is very welcoming to the new ones."

I nodded and just wished to go back home. And I meant home back to New York City, not here. As I thought of this my mind drifted to Gabriel. The twisted and not so sane self of me felt very horrible about leaving the way I did. I literally abandoned all that we had together and all the plans we had for a future together only because I was terrified of him and what he had become. If I hadn't discovered anything at all, my life would be very different. It would be stable but with a deep disastrous lurking in the background. Would I be able to live like that?

Before I could answer my own question, the steel doors slid open. "Here we are." Christina's voice chimed as she stepped through into the old fashioned office. Well, not entirely old fashioned because it had the latest technology. Computer monitors were on a desk in the far side of the room, as were security monitors and other gadgets. As we followed Christina into the office, I noticed the man known as Damien fixated on one of the computers screens. He seemed to be Peter's age. His hair was dark brown and ruffled, while his eyes were a piercing blue. As he heard our footsteps, he shut his computer off and looked up. His lips transitioned into a gallant smirk that complimented his height very well. He was the same height as Gabriel and had the same lean muscled figure. Decked out in all black seemed to be like a uniform around here as he wore black slacks and a black dress shirt.

"Noah? Is that you?" His voice was merely whispers of beautiful sonnet.

"Funny how I found the time to come back to visit you." Noah shook Damien's hand.

"Indeed." He continued to smirk and turned to me. "And you must be Miss Deline, Angela was right about you."

"I'm sorry but I don't understand." I shook my head as I tried to look more less than stupid. Were they all so cryptic?

"Don't worry, usually the new ones don't" He swiftly kissed my hand.

Noah cleared his throat. "As I told Christina, Angela didn't mention anything to me about this."

Damien looked taken back as he released my hand. "I thought she trusted you. I thought you were her 'man with a plan', so to speak."

"Apparently we were mistaken, darling." Christina said as she paced around the room.

"No, I don't think that is true. You know how Angela is, hence she has important information up her sleeve." Noah replied as he tried to recall something in his head.

Noah looked between Damien and Christina. "Then what do you suppose this important information is?"

Damien chuckled darkly. "I wouldn't be scratching my head if I knew it, now would I?" He placed his hand on Noah's shoulder. "You know I trust you Noah, despite the fact that you hadn't communicated with me in awhile."

Noah only smirked and nodded wearily. "I apologize but this man with a plan had many plans to see through.

"I understand completely." Damien nodded and went over to another steel door at the end of the room. "I must apologize if Angela didn't inform you of this new plan, but she has instructed me to make Miss Deline an agent for the company."

"That wasn't the plan when we left New York." Noah stated firmly.

All the while I simply stood there unable to have a say in anything. It was hard to even get a word in with these people. But enough was enough.

"Noah is right, this wasn't what I had agreed upon and it seems irrational for me to allow this when I simply wanted to start over and hopefully someday get rid of this ability. And if not I would be satisfied with just learning to suppress it." I blurted out.

They all looked at me in pity as if I had no idea what I was saying or doing. "You will never be able to get rid of it. It is apart of who you are. It is what divides from an ordinary human being." Damien explained with fascination. "It is as if we have been placed upon this earth to change the world. To do great things for the sake of mankind."

"Forget it Damien, get on the phone right now and tell Angela Aubri will not be doing this." Noah placed himself in front of me as if he felt some impending danger lurking by.

"If only it were that simple Noah." Damien moved around Noah to face me once again. "She has one of the most rare abilities and it would be a very nice addition to the company."

"This isn't right. And I am not going to allow it." Noah shook his head as he stood his ground. Once again I was more baffled as to why the sudden change in plans and why Noah was being so overprotective. I hadn't even know him for a month.

I gulped. "What were to happen if I didn't accept this offer?"

"Then you wouldn't be under the protection of anyone, not even the company. You would be forced to figure it out on your own, but if the company finds out that you kill an innocent person, whether it being on accident or on purpose, then we would be forced to take action and, well, you know the rest." Damien informed me nonchalantly.

My heart dropped. I felt as if I was being pinned up against the wall. I had no desire of becoming an agent. All I wanted was a normal life.

I looked at Noah, who silently pleaded for me not to accept.
