Snippet #2365427

"I say... until we get the proper paperwork, and enough money....we go to New York."
That seemed logical enough. Obviously group, or of what she knew did not have any money. And she doubted that somehow a bus driver would just let them ride for free. Perhaps Kleo could posses him, hopefully he could drive. None of the others seemed to be right for the part... and Sage's power was still unknown.

'So all I say... is we stick around with them for a bit. We seem like the smart ones....plus we could always use a Healer and Shadow Manipulator.'

"But we sti-" As soon as her bight eyes watched Sage expend a rolled up sum of cash her words stopped. Where they hell did he get that? And why was he holding out on the group when all of their arguments seem to spiral around that fact?

"We have money....that can last us..."

"You've had that all this time?" She asked with an indecisive smile. A part of her unsure to scorn him for not speaking up sooner or kiss and hug his face off. Sonya would let him go on with his correlations about certain members of the group. Jason...
Jason? Was it a coincidence that he came into the room at that particular time Sage mentioned him. Surely it couldn't. Her suspicions were confirmed when the remaining group members came in right on cue as if Sage were presenting a power point. What they hell is going on. Control. Clone. Copy? No. None of it made sense. It was clear that he had something to do with but what?

Before she could ask any questions, Arian was not to soon speaking again.

"...Well, Park seems to think he's the leader or something and wants to leave as fast as possible...The others...I don't know"

"I imagine so. Ever since Kleo put that idea in his head.... That he was the only competent one." She just couldn't resist. The woman regained her strength once again and eventually found her breath. "And everyone will follow." She mumbled. "Don't talk like that. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." A quote widely used and also perfect to describe the current situation.

"...If we can get Kleo and Austen on our side, we may have more chances at surviving...Their powers are very useful. We shouldn't make them our enemies"

Sonya noticed Arian glancing at her as he said those words. Clearly he was speaking to Sage.

"...Would you like me to help you?"

The brunette offered Arian a weak smile before standing up. "I'm okay. I just got a little ahead of myself."

With soft steps, she made her way out the door with both men following behind. Glancing around the living room revealed an unruly sight. It was nearly empty. How long had they been gone? Surely not long enough that over half the group had left without a word. Taking a look at the women who remained, Sonya gave a sigh. There had to be only one person behind this. The woman walked to the front door, pulling it open with gusto. There they were. All of them standing around like lost puppies. She spotted the Asian man, Jason and headed in his direction.

"So. You're going to lead us? That's fine." Sonya folded up her arms as she stated her next words clearly and moderate."I've already said I don't trust any of you... not that you can blame me but I might have a solution to one of our problems. Just one." She held up her index before lowering it. "My parents own a penthouse in New York City. I know water and utility are run through the entire building. But that will only fix one of our problems for now. There are still going to be certain things we cant get around even if we stay there. There is no food. My parents haven't been there in years so... And we still have the problem of utensils. I'm only offering this once..."
