Riley - powered
Michael had powers too. He was just like Riley. Riley almost couldn't contain her excitement that she had found another person like her at last. Unfortunately, Travis' voice echoed through her head again.
"Never trust anyone, Red. Everyone is out to get you."
But she couldn't believe that Michael was like that. Though he had come up to her out of anyone in the mall...and he was coincidentaly powered as well...
"Come on," Michael said as he pulled Riley faster. She had let her speed fall as she became lost in her thoughts.
"Don't trust him, Red."
I have to...
"Wait!" she yelled and stopped. They were headed out of the mall now, and in a direction she had never been before that had no possibility of a stealthy escape. "I know a better way."
Riley led Michael through the parking lot to a sewer grate that was hidden behind a trash bin. She lifted up the grate and motioned for Michael to climb inside.
