Chapter 2:

Rebecca's POV

I sighed as I stepped out of my car ready for the meeting. Was it really necessary for these annual meetings? They were such a bother. I locked my car and straightened out my dark blue dress and kept my dark glasses on while keeping my hat on concealing my identity. I stepped forward dreading this event, there was always an argument in these. I wonder if they found a way to bring down the Savant Net yet... Probably not, they always fail at every task they have that has something to do with the Savant Net. I entered the enchanted restaurant which seemed to have comfortable furniture and luxurious décor. The chairs was covered in special dark red seating covers while the tables were neatly placed with a few decorative plastic flowers and a dark blue covering with swirls on it to blend the room which had a lighter tone of blue for the wall paper.

I noticed the table we reserved empty and I was the first to arrive, good. Make sure you give them no time to talk about you. I walked towards the reserved table and sat down on the edge, its better here to make a quick escape when needed. I glanced at the surroundings and skimmed through the menu while glancing forward to see if anyone was about to come. I checked on my watch, 12:40. Twenty minutes early.

I sighed bored, meeting be dammed for all I care. It was utterly annoying and pointless, this meeting was basically to point out your flaws and see it you want to do a suicide mission. The Kelly's been the first ones to realise this and are still out for revenge, idiots. I shook my head and rubbed my temples tiredly, I had just arrived at Italy and have barely had any sleep, thank god I have my make-up kit with me or I would look like a monster. I saw the waiter looking at me concerned and I gave him a cute reassuring smile. He smiled back and walked forward, god men can be so predictable. It's so easy to trick men.

"Need anything miss?" He spoke in an Italian accent.

I nodded sweetly and gave him an innocent look, "Can you get me a coke please?" I spoke back to him and he nodded delighted walking to serve me my drink. I chuckled a bit and leaned back slightly amused. A few minutes later he served me my drink and I smiled giving him a flirty look which made him slightly blush while I was silently laughing. He quickly excused himself and hurriedly walked towards the other customers with a drink in his hand, a thought occurred to me and I smirked. I squinted my eyes slightly and the mop slightly in front of him fell in front of his feet causing him to trip.

"Argh!" He tripped over and his face fell first while his body flipped over with the glass drink breaking on his arm.

"Danny are you okay?" The other employers walked towards him hurriedly trying to get all the glass away from him while I silently laughed, this is too funny.

"Really Rebecca?" Someone whispered behind her ear, "I thought you would be a little bit kinder than that."

I turned my head and saw a teenager with light blonde hair and green eyes staring at me timidly, I rolled my eyes and gestured for him to sit beside me, "Erik Miller," I emphasised, "How long has it been since we last talked?" I asked curiously while taking a sip of my drink.

'Still keeping tabs on your Savant's?' I said telepathically,

"Of course, I knew you would be here early and I thought we could have a proper chat on what happened after we parted." He spoke softly thinking of the times that we had together before we parted.

I wrinkled my nose, "Very well then," I checked my watch for time, 12:50. Ten minutes to go. I sighed and leaned back a bit relaxing my shoulders, "Alright then, fire away." I twirled my dark brown curly hair bored as he repeatedly asked me questions,

"So where have you been the past few months when we split up?" He asked eyeing my facial expression closely.

I gave him a genuine smile and chuckled lightly, "You know Erik, if you want an honest answer, you shouldn't try probing my mind for answers." My eyes flashed annoyed and I sent his power back to him like a magnetic push. His hand flew to his forehead quickly rubbing it repeatedly while flinching at the force I sent him. He hissed a bit and glared at me for a few seconds.

He sighed and leaned back slowly, "Well I wanted to know why you suddenly wanted to take a leave and create an army, I mean you just popped up to me saying you wanted to drop out and months later I see you working up the ranks. It worked though and now many of the higher-ups fear you." He smiled at the thought of me being scarier than the others. "It's quite hilarious actually, seeing some of them flee before you arrive or they whimper."

I smiled, "Well what about you? Normally you wouldn't dare to use your powers against me." I said leaving a mysterious smile on hold looking at his changing appearance.

"Like a say, people change." He stared back at me as I stared at him going back and forth.

I huffed tiredly and turned my head, "I do not wish to speak of this anymore Erik Miller," I said dangerously, he knows when I'm at my limit and I start to use my powers. "Now sit down and wait for the others to come so we can get this damn meeting adjourned." I clenched my fist tight as my eyes start to show anger and annoyance.

Crack!

My eyes snapped out of it and shock was shown on my face, my hand felt wet and cold as it started to shiver and shake out of fear and coldness. I raised my head slightly and turned to the now, broken glass. It was cracked right through the middle and coke was spilled over my hand. As it dried up my hand started to get sticky and my eye twitched. I gritted my teeth angrily, "I'm going to the restroom; if the others arrive tell them not to begin." I said threateningly. I gripped my fists hard leaving a numb feeling on the palm of my hand while turning around furiously going to the restroom.

What do you think?
