Rosen entered the room. "Daphne, JJ, we're heading to look for a friend of ours, Skylar Adams, who should be able to tell us what this photic stimulator has in it, if you come along, it will make it easier to get close to the team without arousing suspicion."
"Are our parents O.K with this?" asked Daphne
"Yes," said Rosen "It was them who suggested it."
"Well, let's go then," said JJ "Where's your team?"
"Already downstairs," said Rosen "Follow me."
Daphne and JJ followed Rosen out of the room and into the elevator to take them downstairs, along with Kat.
"Where are we headed?" asked JJ
"Gary has a phone that Skylar gave him which he's going to use to try to pinpoint her location," said Rosen "But the signal vanished at a certain point, we're going there to try and find out why and to find Skylar."
"Can we help?" asked Daphne
"Not with this," said Rosen "Just continue investigating everyone in the team, if we need anything else, I'll tell you."
Daphne, JJ and Kat got into the car with the others, Daphne accidently touching Rachel in the process. An image of a strong looking guy popped into Daphne's head. Rachel had nothing to hide. Daphne sat down in one of the free seats, across from Cameron.
"Daphne," she said, holding out her hand, Cameron smiled, and held out his hand. Daphne shook, and immediately, an image of a brown haired, Caucasian girl she didn't know came into her head.
"Who's the girl?" asked Daphne "The one you were just thinking about?"
Cameron looked surprised. "Her names Dani," he said "Dani Rosen, I'm dating her, she's an Alpha too."
"What is it she can do?" asked Daphne
"She's an empath," said Cameron "She can transfer emotions between two people and cause other people to experience the emotions she's feeling by touch."
"Pretty powerful stuff," said Daphne "Have you two been dating long?"
"Not long," said Cameron "But I love her."
"How do you know that if she can make you feel whatever she wants you too?" asked JJ
"JJ," said Daphne, indignantly "That's not an appropriate thing to ask somebody."
"I know," said Cameron, turning to JJ "Because I feel it when she isn't touching me, she is my true love."
The car turned off the road and into the woods. They were miles from any civilization now. Gary was still tracking the signal of Skylar's chip. Suddenly, he yelled for them to stop the car and ran out of the car.
"There's no signal they're gone," he said
"Calm down Gary," said Rosen, coming over to him "You should really expect there not to be signals out here."
Daphne came out of the car and took Gary's hand, leading him back into the car. As she took his hand, she saw a memory of him and an older woman, most likely his mother, having dinner. That meant Gary, Rachel and Cameron were not the spy.
That only left one other Alpha on Dr Rosen's team to investigate, Nina Theroux. Daphne knew she had to be careful with Nina, she had mind powers of her own, and she wasn't sure if Nina would be able to detect her mind reading.
As she was pondering the best way to investigate Nina, the car stopped. The window rolled down and a person told Rosen to turn around, saying he was not welcome. Eventually, though, they let the car through. Looking out the window, Daphne saw that the car was surrounded by eight men. One of them tells them to turn back. Rosen keeps driving. One of the men touches the engine and it shuts down.
"Gower," said a female voice from over to the left. Daphne looked to see a black haired woman there.
Rosen gets out of the car "Skylar, these friends of yours?"
Skylar's expression did not change "No, and neither are you, go home."
She turns and leaves. Rosen follows her with the photo stimulator and the rest of the team follows at a distance.
"We should be careful here," said Bill "We don't know who Parish's sympathisers might be."
"What should we do?" asked Kat
"Stay around here with Skylar and Rosen and I'll scope the place out," said Bill, the others nodded.
"I don't like this place," said Gary "There's no signals."
"Come on, Gary," said Daphne "Enjoy the natural world, you don't need to look for signals to enjoy that."
"I need to go back to the office," said Gary "I can't handle this."
Gary ran off.
"Well, so much for staying out of trouble," said Bill "I'll go after him."
He left, running after Gary.
Alphaville (Outside Skylar's house)
"So how do you all know Doctor Rosen?" asked Daphne, trying to make conversation
"He recruited all of us to be on his team," said Cameron "I was under the influence of a mind controller and his team saved me, then he offered me a job."
"What about you, Mina?" asked JJ "How did you come to be on Dr Rosen's team?"
"I'd rather not talk about it," said Mina
Daphne put a hand on her shoulder "If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to."
Unknown to Mina, Daphne had just seen part of her memory, convincing her that Mina was not the spy, and Mina didn't seem to have noticed. She smiled at Daphne.
"Thanks, I'll talk about it to you at some point, but I don't really know either of you well enough yet."
