"I guess I owe you two a explanation."

Tori POV

Jade's expression of concentration is quickly turned into relief and not a second later confusion. I'm not exactly sure if I believe her but it would definitely explain why she has been acting off. I lean back agents the couch's arm rest and pull my feet up and under me.

"Jade?" She looks up at me as if she just realized I'm still here.

"She's explaining it all to me." She says slowly. "Maybe you should go shower it might be a while." Wait, she? I'm about to go ask but Jade is back in her little world, or is it their little world? I shake my head let out a sigh and head down the hall. There's one bedroom and a bathroom right in front of it, and a locked door at the end of the hall. I open a closet outside of the bathroom and grab a clean towel. The tiles are a dull shade of brownish white the walls are a darker shade the counter is a lighter then both the floor and the walls. I put the towel and my clothing beside the sink. There are more red stains on the back of the door and the floor they look faded and old. There are scratch marks on the walls but nothing too bad.

"I really have to ask jade what happened to this place." I say out loud. I step into the tub and turn the hot water up all the way but I'm met with water colder then arctic ice. I let out a yelp and take a step back but my heel slid and I hit my head on the glass then fall on my back. My head spun as I stand up once more.

"Did I mention there was no hot water?" I hear Jade call from outside. I take the quickest shower possible and dry myself off. I'm about to ask jade if I can borrow something to wear when the door opens with a click and she tosses gray sweatpants and a loose maroon tee in. I'm almost sure I locked the door. I turn the lock and pull on the door to discover its broken. I get changed and head back out. Jade is lying changed on the couch drinking coffee out of a dark mug. I shove her feet to the ground and sit facing her.

"You're cruel you know that." I growl.

"You're lucky there's electricity." She says with a smirk taking half a sip.

"What happened to this place?" She shrugs.

"When I was younger it was abandoned and I used to break in and sleep here for the night."

"A criminal from a young age." I comment with a smile, imagine a little Jade climbing up the fire escape and jumping in through the window or breaking open the lock. My smile fades when I ask my next question. "Why couldn't you stay with your parents at home?" Her face hardens. No, stupid stupid, stupid just when she was opening up. I wish I could take my question back. "You don't have to answer that if you're not ready to." I pause expecting an answer that doesn't come. "So what did the angel tell you?"

"A lot." She takes another agonizing slow sip of her coffee. "The angel told me that it's Cat." My mouth gaps open in confusion and shook.

"But how? Cat passed away." Jade sighs.

"Apparently she was chosen to save th-"

"Cat? As in Catherina Valentine, Cat?" I interrupt.

"Yes Cat!" Jade snaps. I shut my mouth. "Apparently her power is one of the strongest known." Jade smiles at some distance memory. "She had an angel too named Muriel when she died Muriel was spouse to be transmitted to the next person chosen." She chuckles. "Apparently there is some list of heroes or something. Anyway the laser both killed Cat and transfer her soul so now she's my angel." Jade spoke as if it was the simplest thing in the world. "She can see beyond what I can and is here to help guide us."

"Us?" I finally ask. The goth nods.

"Cat says we're going on some shitty adventure to learn about friendship or the true meaning of life." I giggle at that. She puts her empty mug in the sink. "Apparently I can also heal faster or something. It's complicated though. Cat said something like I have to be calm and out of a fight for it to work and she has to be communicating to me." She shrugs. Wow she gained a new power, and can see past what is visible to her eyes. Would Cat be able to give her advice? What am I thinking its Cat her best advice would be to eat strawberry ice-cream instead of vanilla. "I'm going to bed. G'night."

"Wait, where am I going to sleep?" Jade shrugs. "Come on, Jade! Let me sleep in your bed."

"Fine fine. Come on." Jade grabs my wrist and we head down to her bedroom. There's one queen sized bed with dark red and black bed sheets. To the left there is a dresser and closet all in dark tones. The walls have posters of bands and a big one of The Scissoring. There is a display case to the right with photos most of which are burned along the edge a small stuffed rabbit and a few other sentimental objects beneath a thin sheet. There is a night stand on the right side of the bed and a window big enough to climb out of. The fan on the ceiling is already making a creaking sound as it spins around. Jade flicks it off and moves her arms in a grand gesture.

"Well here it is. Touch anything and I'll burn your hide." I know she's kidding and I laugh. I crawl under the covers. Jade flips off the light and crawls onto the other side.

"Jade."

"Yeah?"

"Good night." I say pulling the covers close.

"Night, Vega." I smile, I can't get the memory of the last time I saw her asleep. It was the night the fire alarm rang. She was stretched out across one side of the bed the remains of tears on her cheeks. I couldn't bring myself to ask her why she was crying. It took me a while to fall asleep.

I wake up to find Jade gone. The spot where she laid was fixed up proper. I stretch my spine until I hear a satisfying pop. I yawn and stand up. I take a closer look around her room. Her phone is sitting on the dresser with a lava lamp. The room is a lot nicer than the rest of the house and its obvious how much time she spends in here. I stand up and look into Jade's display case. Everything inside is covered in a layer of dust. I pull the off-white sheet off and open it. There are photo's of a younger Jade and a few of Jade with some other people I don't know, there's one picture near the back that catches my eye. It's behind a few other trinkets and I pull it free and look carefully at it. At first I don't recognize who's standing with Jade but after a moment I realize its Cat. Her hair is its natural color and they are playing in the grass in someone's yard. The picture caught both of them of guard and they were just having fun and playing. A goofy smile implants its self on my face that only fades when I hear.

"Didn't I tell you not to touch anything?" Jade's standing in the door way her hair wet wrapped in a towel similar to the one covering her. I put the picture down beside the bunny.

"You and Cat were friends?" I ask stepping towards her. She shrugs as if it was a suitable answer then opens her closet and pulls out something to change into.

"There is so much about you I don't know."

"You're lucky you know anything." She answers quickly as she puts on a black shirt with mesh arms and the words 'bite me' in white complex writing on the front and blue white jeans. I can't help but watch her when she's not looking.

"Jade?"

"Whaaatttt?" she asked stretching the word out.

"I need to borrow some clothing and a towel." Jade tossed me a black off the shoulder shirt and light grey pants with an off white towel.

I take a shower and head to the living room. Jade is listening to the news.

" -ree today. There is no new information about the missing people's case." Jade turned the volume of it down so it was just background music.

"I can't believe they still haven't found them yet." I sit down beside her, as soon as I do she props her feet up on my lap.

"Don't you have to call Hollywood Arts and sign in or something?" The Goth asks stretching. The top of her shirt raises a bit revealing her pale stomach. My eyes drift upwards I have to manually pull them away.

"Oh yes yes. Where's your phone?" Jade pulls a black cell phone out of her pocket and tosses it to me. "Thanks." I dial the number and press the phone agents my ear. "Hey Robbie, yeah, okay use this number until I get back. Alright, we'll get there. No I don't know."

"Got a new job?"

"Yeah. We're going to go look for the missing people." Jade stretches once more before getting up.

"Great." She says. "When's our ride getting here?"

"I'll call Beck to pick us up."

"What's up with you two are you like dating?" Jade asks hands rested on her hips and studded eyebrow perked.

"Who me and Beck? No, no, he's a good friend, just a good friend." She shakes her head slowly as if doubting me. I dial Beck's number and ask him to pick us up. He tells us he will be there as soon as he can. I put Jade's phone in my pocket. Jade is across the room watching me her arms crossed over her chest. "He said he will be here soon." I tell her

"Alright." The raven headed beauty answers with a shrug. I turn her radio off and walk towards her.

"Are you ready for this?" I ask nervously. I don't want her to get another migraine. She nods.

"Of course I am." I can hear the trickle of nervousness in her voice. I'm unconsciously biting my lower lip. I'm not usually nervous before missions but I can't get the thought of us having to be heroes out of my mind. Yes I have saved an uncountable amount of people before but we're usually not publically known and if we are we don't make a big show of it. It's one of the benefits of joining Hollywood Arts. They fake identities for you and proved sources. The first time I went on a mission I was so scared but I got the hand of it rather quickly. I remember Andre had to drag me out of the car. I meet Cat at the academy the next day; well she's a bit hard to miss. I meet Robbie next during my third mission and with him Beck. I consider them all close friends- Jade too. It must be hard for her; no one knows what she is going through. Is it painful? Is Cat constantly yelling in her ear? I decide to ask.

"In the beginning when Cat was adjusting it was really painful." Jade pauses before answering the second answer. "She's not always in my ear and she seemed to be surprisingly on topic." I raise an eyebrow at that. "She only talks when she wants to." Jade smiles and I do the same. We hear a honk from outside.

"That's probably Beck, let's go." We walk side by side out to see Beck in a truck waiting for us.
