Snippet #2411889

Avory watched the girl as Thes loaded her bow. He could easily reach for his bow as well, but something stopped him. Something in the trees, behind the girl. It stepped out, a black, cloaked figure, wielding a scythe. He quickly snapped out of it though, realizing it was just his Foresight again. The figure disappeared, because it was never actually there. Often when his foresight was acting up on its own, he would get a series of visions, not just one. His eyes would also glow when this happened as well. He then remembered the situation around him, and refocused.

Avory kept an eye on the girl. But his foresight just showed him the Grim Reaper, the symbol of death. And the first one was blood on his hands. Am I seeing my own death? No, no, these visions could mean anything. It could just mean something deadly is coming. My foresight is rarely clear and simple.

Avory reached for his bow because of her last question though. Asking that question like that, and so bluntly, made him suspicious. But worse, it made him curious. "If we were psychics, why would we be here? And that is a stupid question to ask, because I doubt an actual psychic would answer that truthfully". Avory couldn't help but notice her white hair, and the fact she was out here by herself. While Agents usually did run solo missions, that was when they were hunting one or two runners. Their family was so big, often the Agents came in groups of twos or threes. Occasionally just one had come after them, but that did not happen often anymore. Avory still did not trust her, but an Agent coming after them alone, and luckily finding them in the woods, was statistically low. Of course, he did not rule out the fact others might be around, but if they had equal or greater numbers, he doubted they would have waited so long to strike. Still, he did not trust her.

He quickly scanned the woods around them, just to be on the safe side. He didn't see anything at first, but when he looked back at her, he saw two more figures. Seeing as how Thes said nothing, he immediately suspected they were just his foresight acting up. Especially since she would have reacted to Damion actually appearing. The second figure he did not recognize though. They were both wearing black though, and each one of them said a word. "Reclaim". "Release".

They both disappeared, and Avory felt a drip of blood running out of his nose. Damn it. Well, at least that means foresight won't distract me again any time soon. But if she did not know we were psychics before, she will now. And when Thes sees my nose bleeding, she will know my foresight was showing me something big. How am I supposed to explain what I just saw when I don't even know what it means?

Avory especially did not like what the three visions were. One was blood on his hands, the second was a reaper, and the third was his brother and someone else, giving the most bizarre clue ever. He quickly glanced at Thes, and then mentioned "C'mon Thes, lets just leave. Standing here staring at each other is not going to get any of us anywhere..."

(Side Note: Avory's foresight visions are rarely if ever clear. Meaning, don't assume you know what they mean. Also, putting NPC control in a different post this time since this was so long...lol...)
