Coyote Sands
Over the next week every noe began to adapt to the new situation. Matt and Daphne found there love life to be improving ten fold. After being show the basic procedure by Peter Maya began tending to Mohinder burn as it recover. Gabriel and Claire had offered some of there blood to help heal the wound but Mohinder refused to accept any help from them
Maya cursed him for his foolish pride but she herself did not like Gabriel's presence at all. Peter and Hiro slowly but sure began to form a feeble friendship. They found it hard to trust him but they saw he was making an effort and decided to try and be his friend. Hiro was helping Gabriel perfect his time manipulation abilty which actually led to some confusion on Claire's part.
"Hiro, I thought Arthur stole your power, how'd you get it back" Claire asked. "Nemesis, when we were at Pinehearst, she took some of the formula and gave it to me, it may be weaker but it back" he exclaimed happily.
Peter on the other hand was a cocktail of emotion. He felt so betrayed to find out Nathan was behind this, the brother he looked up to and idolised. He beginning to like Gabriel and realised that Gabriel Gray and Sylar are not the same person. I he felt proud of Claire to see her grow into a strong independent, beautiful intelligent woman who could take care of herself. But was feeling sad that she didn't need her Uncle Peter to protect her anymore.
Still Emma still felt uncomfortable being alone so she and Peter began to befriend each other. Peter had copied her ability and they would often together and enjoy the rainbow of colours that was produced by the hussle and bustle of the day the day to day goings on of there house mates.
Sometime even Gabriel would see a flash of blue when Elle called him or pink when Claire was talking. Claire was finally getting what see wanted, a chance to be a hero. Elle and Gabriel would take her down to the basement and train her in the combat skill Elle knew from her time with the Company. It was down there that Gabriel noticed he had gained new abilities.
Elle was teaching Claire how to disarm an opponent when she noticed what was happening to Gabriel. He was leaning against the wall and Claire exclaimed "What the hell". They turned and noticed how the area around Gabriel's hand was freezing.
After there little surprise he discovered that Arthur stole Peter's power mimicery and now Gabriel had it and he absorped Emma, Tracy and Ando's abilities and added them to his arsenal.
After a week of being in hiding the group were sitting together at the breakfast table eating waffles. They all were enjoying themselves despite everything that was going on. "Who wants seconds" Gabriel said and with that everyone said "Yes". Even the people who still hated him mainly Maya and Mohinder. Peter, Hiro and Daphne were beginning to like Gabriel despite his past. Emma who only knew him as Gabriel and never as Sylar found it very not to like him and treated him like a normal person.
Matt and Ando were still uneasy of Gabriel but they tolerated him for the stake of there companions. Tracy didn't seem to care at all but it didn't stop her from hogging the waffles and syrup.
Peter's new phone began to ring. He recognised the number, it was his mother Angela Petrelli. He excused himself and headed outside to answer it.
"Hello" he said. "Hello Peter" replied the voice of his mother. "Mom how the hell did you get this number" he asked. "I had a dream about it, listen to me, you and the people your with must meet me at Coyote Sands in the desert, nd listen carefully because this is important, everyone must go you, Sylar, Claire, Elle, Tracy,Matt,Daphne, Mohinder,Maya, Hiro and Ando everyone must be there" she said solemnly.
"Why" Peter asked. "Because it was in my dream" she said. "Now hurry up and get here". She hung up and Peter headed back to anouce the news. "Who was that Peter " Claire asked.
"It was my mom" he said. "How is old lady Petrelli, what wrong Peter are you out past your bedtime" Gabriel joked. "No, Guys listen, my mom just had a dream and in it we all head to a place called Coyote Sand in the desert" he said.
"Did you say Coyote Sand" Mohinder asked. "Yeah, why do you know it" he asked. "I found the name mentioned several times in one of my father papers" he said. "Do you know where it is" Peter asked. "I believe so" he said.
"Excuse me but why the Hell should we go somewhere just because Angela Petrelli said so" Tracy said. "Well look at it this way, has anyone any better suggestion then stay here forever or go to Coyote Sand's" Gabriel said. Nobody argued with this and it was decided to take the chance.
After the packed up what they need for the trip the meet in the living room. Hiro took Ando's hand as the red lightning spread into Hiro as everyone else grabbed hold of him and in an instinct they found themselves in what lookedc like an abandoned army base.
They look around and Peter said "This is Coyte Sand's". "I believe so" Mohinder said. "Look like you finally arrived" said Angela as she walked out from one of the buildings.
"Angela or is it Mom" Gabriel said. "Hello Gabriel lovely to see you again and Elle you're looking lovely and dear Claire you and your Father need to talk" she said. "My Father " Claire repeated confused. "Both of them actually, well speak of the Devil" she said as Noah and Nathan appeared from the same buildnig she appeared out of.
"Dad" she said before running to him to give him a hug. "Claire-Bear" he said holding her closer to him. "Nathan " Peter said angrily before running over and punching his brother in the face. Gabriel and Noah grabbed Peter's arms and Matt Nathan up. "Calm down Peter" Noah said.
Peter broke free of there grip and flew away using Nathan power he just copied. Gabriel was about to follow but Nathan and Angela stopped him. "I'll get him" Nathan said before taking off after Peter.
"Alright Ms. P, why the hell did you bring us here" Elle said. "That can wait till later, you four come with me" she said refering to Elle, Gabriel, Noah and Claire. "What about the rest of us " Matt asked. "Wait till Peter and Nathan get back, we have to do this together" she said before heading into one of the abandoned buildings. The four followed her.
They entered the building and Angela barked "Sit". With that they all obeyed and sat on the chairs and on an old table. "Alright Angela, what's going on" Noah asked. "Claire, tell him" she said.
"How do you know" she asked. "Know what " Noah said. "What doesn't she know" Elle remarked. "What this all about, if Claire has to tell me something, why did Bonnie and Clyde have to come along" he said refering to Gabriel and Elle.
"It concerns them too" Angela said. "Did they have something to do with her disappearance" Noah said getting up and holding his gun to Gabriel's head. "You bastard Sylar, what did you and your little slut do to my daughter" he shouted. "Don't talked to them like that and don't hurt them" Claire shouted and stood between her father and them.
"Why Claire" he asked shocked. Claire turned and looked at them and her anger faded and tears formed in her eyes as she said "Because I love them". It was then that Claire saw the look in her Father's eyes. He didn't repond with anger like Peter did instead he merely looked at her and then at Gabriel and Elle and Claire knew what she had done. She had broken her Father's Heart.
"I'm sorry" she said "I'm sorry but i love them, i love Gabriel and Elle, I'm in love with them and their in love with me". Claire couldn't looked her father in the eyes. "The two of them are monsters Claire" he said "They're murders".
"So are we" Angela said "In fact if i'm not mistaking in your timing working for the Company you might have racked up a body count even more impressive then both of there's put together" Angela said. Noah had no reply to this but instead pushed Claire out of the way and forced the gun directly on to Gabriel's forehead and said "What ever who've done to Claire undo it"
"I haven't done anything" he said. "Dad" Claire screamed. "Claire this is for your own good" he said. "Don't make me choose between the people i love" she cried. "This is there doing Claire, they're trying to turn you against me" he said. "They're not the ones holding the gun" Claire said.
"Noah put the gun down, now it not the time for personal vendettas, we need everyone here if we're going to defeat Danko, now put the gun down" Angela ordered. Noah was hesitent and did not obey. Instead he tightened his grip and looked like he was about to pull the trigger.
Gabriel and Elle were prepared to strike back but Claire said "Dad I love you but if you pull that trigger I don't think i would ever be able to forgive you, so please I'm begging you, give them a chance if not for themselves then for me" she said. "JUST PUT THE DAMN GUN DOWN" she screamed at him with eyes full of tears.
Finally Noah's look soften ever so slightly and he sighed as he lowered his arm and dropped the gun. "Thank you" she said. Claire ran over to her lover and stood next to them and they all stared at each other for what seemed like hours.
Finally Angela broke the silence by proclaiming "Looks like my boys are back" before heading out. They followed her but didn't say a word. They reunited with the group outside and Peter asked "Alright Mom, why'd you bring us out here"
"We have a new enemy in Mr. Danko, and we're all going to have to work together if we're going to survivebut that not why we're here, I brought you all here so you could learn the truth about the past" she said.
