Good morning daisy" Gabe said from across the living room where he was fixing his shoe lace
"Good morning" Marie replied from her bed as she wiped her face.
"Soo, I will be stepping out. We're out of cash and I need to see if I can make use of my debit Card" he said
"Oh, Okay. See you" she replied.
After he stepped out Marie remembered she wanted to ask him about his phone. If he had his wallet with him when they crossed maybe he also had his phone with him and that would be dangerous because the people he worked for seemed powerful and could easily track them.
She didn't have a phone or even his number. She decided to try and communicate with him through her mind. She sat still and closed her eyes
"Gabe can you hear me?"
"Yes, hope you're fine?" He replied
She scoffed as soon as she heard the voice in her mind reply. She had doubts about how Gabe found her at the restaurant the first time, she thought maybe it was just by chance or maybe he was following her. Now he was replying her, without a phone, when he's miles away. Whatever power they had was very powerful and they had a lot to still discover.
"Uhm, do you have your phone with you?"
"Yes, it was with me when we crossed"
"You have to turn it off. I have a feeling the people you worked for might use it to track us"
"That's true. I haven't even checked it. I will turn it off. You should stay safe too"
"Yeah. I will"
She let out a sigh as she opened her eyes. She had a strange feeling that something was going to happen but she didn't know what exactly and was hoping it was just a mere feeling.

Gabe was thrilled after he found out he could use his debit card without any issues. He went to the nearest atm stand immediately to withdraw all the money he made while working with the shady company.
"Uhm, could you be fast please?" he said to the young lady who has been at the atm stand for about 20 minutes
"Yeah, I'm leaving already" she said as she stepped out.
Gabe sensed a strange aura from her, but he overlooked it.
Right after she left. He made use of the atm and withdrew almost all the cash he had there, leaving only a few dollars. After doing a currency exchange he went to a phone store and got new phones for Marie and himself. And right after, got new clothes and some takeouts.
He got back to the hotel to see Marie still sleeping.
"Hello, wake up sleepy head" he said through his mind
"You know you could have just said that out loud. I mean, I'm like right here" Marie scoffed
"Oh" Gabe chuckled "I thought you were asleep and….Anyways. look what I got us" he raised the whole shopping bags up
Marie sat up immediately and when she saw how plenty the shopping bags were she jumped out of her bed and ran over to check them out.
"How did you get the money for all this?" she asked as she looked through one of the bags
"Well, I kinda withdrew all the cash I had" he said
"Hmm, this tastes great" she said through a mouth full of ice cream.
They spent the next hours checking out all the things he bought. Thankfully the dresses he bought for Marie were just her size.

In another Realm
"Mother I saw him today. I saw his powers, they haven't been fully activated yet"
"Why did you go down to his world. I told you not to, Nakaira"
"Mother you know I wouldn't sit down and do nothing. And I didn't show my true self, I used the image of a random stranger I killed in their world. I hate them as much as you do and I even have more business with them than you. We were in-love and he left me for her. I want them to pay so bad" she said angrily as a tear rolled down her face
Her mother who has the softest spot for her was touched and felt even more rage towards Gabe and Marie
"What do you plan on doing?"
"People are vulnerable when they are desperate for help. They will be in trouble soon, I will go over to their world and make allies with them, I'll make them believe we are friends and at the right time I will kill them both" she replied
"Do you think it would be that easy? We tried killing them before and there they are, living!"
"Mother, that's because we didn't use the stone to extract the ability of reincarnation" she said
"You have the stone" her mother asked surprisingly
"Yes, mother I do" she replied
"And how did you get it Nakaira?" her mother asked, looking very worried "Don't tell me you've been in touch with Magik?"
The silence and expression on her daughter's face already answered her question
"You know how corny Magik is. Why would you ever take anything from him? What did he ask for in exchange?"
"Never mind mother. It's nothing I can't handle" she replied.
*****
"Okay, this is so cool" Marie said, as she sat on the couch in the living room while it floated in the air.
"This is my fave of all our powers you know" she added
"Well, you can't say yet. We don't know if there are other abilities we are yet to figure out" he replied as he pointed his hands towards the couch that was in the air
"Why don't you just get down now, we don't even know if there are hidden cameras in the room"
"Don't be such a bore Gabe. Now let go, thanks" she looked at Gabe and made a fake smile
Gabe tried bringing it down but Marie was determined to have it floating in the air so he let it go
"Suit yourself" he said as he made his way to his bed. While he was scrolling through his new phone he heard a loud noise that had him startled. He turned over to see Marie lying on the floor beside the couch
"Marie" he shouted "What's wrong?" he ran over to her
"I…..I saw something" she cried "Gabe we have to leave, they are coming"
"Okay, I need you to calm down, and tell me what you saw, right after I see that you're okay" he said, and carried her up gently.
"Come on, I'm fine" she replied
"Are you sure?" he asked
"Yeah, somehow I feel like my bones got healed" she replied
"Okay, why don't you sit, while I get you some wa.." his sentence was cut short by Marie's voice
"You don't understand. Gabe we have to leave now, I had this vision about the guys that were chasing us. They had guns and all sorts of weapons and they came to capture us"
"That is just a vision Marie. There's no way they could ever find us or get to us so fast" Gabe said as he walked to the balcony
"Gabe, I have a really bad feeling" she whimpered
"Okay. This is bad" Gabe ran in from the balcony "You're right we have to leave" he brushed through his hair
"Those bastards are right outside, and there's more than one car. Almost as if we're fugitives" he said
"But how did they even find us, didn't you turn off your phone?" she asked
"I did. I think the debit card had to do with them tracking us" he replied
"What do we do now" Marie asked
"Run. Come on, give me your hand" Gabe said
Marie grabbed Gabe's hand and they both took a step forward hoping they would disappear but nothing happened
"What's going on, why isn't it working?" She asked
"Wait. I think it's from me" Gabe replied and pointed his hands towards a tea cup and tried making it float in the air, but nothing happened
"What happened to your powers?" She asked, right after she tried lifting the tea cup and confirmed hers was still working
"I.. I don't know. I noticed it was gone when I tried bringing the couch down earlier but I didn't feel anything thing happen" he answered
"What are we going to do now? Do we just storm out and I'll have them fly over" she asked
"No. we can't do that. We'll be putting ourselves out there for the world to see and we don't even know the type of weapons they have. Maybe it's something that can knock us out" he replied
There was a loud bang on the door that had their hearts flying right out their chest.
"Gabe we have to do something before they break through the door" Marie Panicked
In another realm
"It's good to see them tremble with so much fear. I spelled the atm and stopped his powers temporarily when I had a brief contact with him today" Nakaira said to Kimani, her mother
"Do you now see that I can handle this mother?" she asked
"Yes. You can go ahead and do all you want with them, just don't get hurt. I will be watching" Kimani replied
"I won't get hurt mother. And I won't disappoint you I promise. I will let her get shot first before I save the day. I want to see her go through pain" Nakaira said

"Gabe, I'm sorry but we have to go" Marie said as she walked over to the door and waved her hands over. As soon as the door opened she sent the men who were standing in front flying over.
"Gabe lets go" she shouted and held out her hands for him
They ran to the elevator but it was out of service so they used the stairs. While they were running down the stairs they got attacked by some men. They tried turning back up but they were covered.
Marie wasn't very good with situations like this. She started having panic attacks immediately and before she could wave her hands one of the men shot a gun at her.
"Noo.... Marie!!!" Gabe shouted as he held Marie in his hands. She was still breathing and even still struggling to use her powers
"I'd advice you stop whatever you're trying to do before you both get killed" one of the men said
"Sleep" A fierce Feminine voice said making all the men around fall unconscious. As soon as they were all asleep, a figure revealed itself.
It was a tall, brown haired young lady and her face was like that of a goddess.
Gabe was shocked and couldn't hide the expression on his face
"What did you just do? Who are you?" he asked
"Your wife!" she replied. The look on Gabe's face worsened almost like he had seen a ghost
"We have to leave now, she's bleeding. Give me your hands" she looked over at Marie who was struggling to stay alive
Gabe hesitated at first but he thought if she had powers like them, then maybe it was better to go with her instead of letting strange Men who didn't think twice about shooting Marie get them.
"What about her?" he asked
"She's in your hand so she goes wherever you go. You'll both be safe I promise"
Immediately Gabe grabbed her hand they vanished.
