They both looked at each other.
I move my gaze away from them. What should i say?
"It's not the same as you think" i say pretending to be confident. I let my body rest againts the chair and put a slight smile. "Bridge William said that the unique ability is the projection of the soul and my core at the time was almost already open, so when i got confronted by the guy with rat face my core connected with it also thanks to the trauma and it became very similar" i say in one go.
Symon looks at me "from the knowledge that i know of it wouldn't be possible but Bridge William has far more knowledge than me so i will not argue about it" he leans back too, satisfied with the situation.
Leon looks at us both "I don't Tomh you are too weird, there's something wrong around you" he says with a grav tone, his face not hiding his emotion.
"That's why i need to find out what happened to me" i say leaning forward, looking both at them in the eyes. "And i will need your help"
Leon lights up "count me in Tomh" he puts his fist up "i wanted to help you already but Symon was stopping me"
Symon shows a rare smile "brother i will always help you, i just thought it would be best you ask for, unwanted help is worse than ignoring someone"
"Thank you guys" i truly thank them. I need to use this guys, and if someone was involved in Tomh death even better, i will get the chance to get close.
"Now back to business" Symon puts his fingers on the paper and brings it closer to me "you need to learn everything back and the best way to do it is in action, you also have a unique ability so you don't have to worry too much"
I take the paper and read it.
Aluns, 42 years old, lives alone, he has only a room, with a bed and scattered objects all over, at 12 pm and am he closes his curtains, reason unknown, in between he stays out of his room, research places and people he interacts with.
Mhh, it's similar to the baker one.
"You will need to survile him, at first we will both be with you so that we can teach you basics, after that you are on your own"
"What if he finds out im following him?" Immediately in action? Don't kill me bastards.
"Hope you are faster than him" Symon serious as ever.
Leon starts laughing "it's not like we can do it any other way, we can watch you over but we would take away eyes to other things, we are not many and we don't have the luxury to do that" Leon says with a smily face.
I thought you would protect me. I exhale and touch my hair "alright, if there is no other way..."
.....
We walk through the streets, we enter a small hallway.
Leon kneels down and puts his hands forward "put your feet here"
"What?"
"Put your feet" he firmly says. I slowly put my feet on his hand.
"I will thorw you up there, be ready" he smile. "Wait what? How?" He lowers his hands and then BOOM, he snaps his legs, the air cutting my face, im in mid air.
I move my arms in the air, i start falling down towards the roof. Shit. CRACK. My body crashes against the roof. Coff coff. My shoulder on flames. Piece of shit are you crazy.
Leon and Symon land infront of me. "Are you alright?" Leon says smiling.
I ignore him and sit up. I touch my shoulder, it sends ripples of pain throughout my body. "Don't worry, even if you haven't learned enanching yet your body will heal faster" Symon says squatting down and keeping his voice low.
"So it was okay to make so much noise and throw me in the air?" I say struggling to get up.
"I didn't want to do it, but there is a tradition for those who open their core, let's just say you will suffer worse things" Symon gets up with me.
"You are part of the team now" Leon ironically says.
I scoff. Keep it cool mark.
"Will he not find us out if we make so much noise?" I ask while getting up.
"We are still far away" Leon fixes his hair.
They really set me up.
"Come on, keep up Tomh" Symon starts running through roofs.
Leon follows behind.
My shoulder pulsating, i greeth my teeth and start running behind them. I look down to where i step and up to where they are going. The roof shaking as we pass. I look on my left. People walking in the middle of the road, they give us quick looks and then resume to their life.
"Alright here is fine" Symon says without problem. I put my hands on my knees and take deep breaths. "You guys are monsters" i say to them.
"You will be able to do even more stuff when you are able to enhance" Leon squats down and looks at his left where the bridge is.
I hope so, but this body is good i would have never been able to run this much in my own body.
The roof of this house is straight, weirdly from most of the houses.
I sit down and catch my breath while Symon and Leon look down.
"This is a place Leon scouted before, from here you will able to look at him and also have a clear view of your surroundings" Symon concentrated to the bridge "most of the time the place will be already decided, it is best to not pass around the same area too much"
I slowly go towards them and look down. The bridge a few meters away from the ground. Infront of us apartments with 5 stores.
"Which one is it?"
"The second floor and the third window from the left" Leon says while keeping a serious look.
Why are they looking at?
I look towards the window but all i see is black.
Symon takes out a notebook, a pen and gives it to me.
"Your role will be looking at every person that enters and leaves, you will write it down with the names you come up with, it usually best with a description and if there is something different from before"
I distractly listen to him. The pen made of wood, they are more advanced that they seem, shouldn't they have like feathers and ink?
"I will arrive when the sun comes down" he says making a gesture. "Alright, now it's your turn"
Symon and Leon get up "be careful, you don't want to miss important things" Leon says stretching.
Symon nods at me and starts running away, Leon behind him, they cut the air around them, three time faster than before. I thought that was fast but now, this is crazy...
I take the notebook and open it, blank. Did they tell me they would teach me? They are just throwing me in situation...
