Chapter 1 of ?
The Meeting
The moon shone with an unusual light. The animals in the are knew something was coming; it was coming soon.
In the distance, a news reporter’s voice was faint, “We have confirmed reports that a loin, who recently had cubs, escaped from the New York Zoo this afternoon. The zookeeper is convinced that she is searching for her cubs that were taken away from her three weeks after they were born. Please be advised, this animal is very dangerous. If you see this lion roaming around your neighborhood call 1-800-SNAG, immediately or your local animal service…”
A teenager girl looked out the window at hearing this news on the air.
“It’s coming,” she said aloud. She retreated into her apartment getting ready to pack and leave, but before she heard a knock at the door. She whipped her head toward the sound. No one visited her. No one knew who she was and those who did know her wouldn’t know where to look.
The knock came again. She tiptoed toward the door. She peeked through the peep hole. She did not recognize that man. Her senses were triggered into high alert when she saw him.
“Open up. I know you’re in there,” he said in a despondent voice. And I can feel your power he thought to himself.
“Who are you,” cried Hale, while trying to ignore the instinct to run to the window and out onto the fire escape.
“Please--would you just open the door or would you prefer me knocking it down,” Sylar inquired. Believe me, I don’t want the noise. Let me in. Sylar was getting restless. He was tired of playing games with his latest victim.
Hale’s heart hammered. Her mind was racing toward a solution to get rid of this man. Run or Hide. She couldn’t be sure of which. The only solution was to run, but that would do her no good. That much she could figure out without her abilities. She had to let him in whether she liked it or not.
“Tell me who you are first, and then I’ll open the door” Hale answered coolly to his threat. She wasn’t about to show this man any weakness or fear. Her life up to this moment has been without incident. She never ran into people that would know her, the ones that knew she was a run away.
“Fine. My name is Zane,” Sylar replied.
“That’s not your real name,” she responded, “I want your real name---Mr. Zane.”
Without warning, she had a sudden urge to kiss this man. It was a strange attraction to this man, a man in shadow, a man with secrets, a man she couldn’t even see.
This is crazy she thought. Why am I feeling attracted to a man I hardly know? To make matters, she hadn’t turned 18 yet.
Sylar looked away from the door,. She is good. She knew that “Zane” wasn’t his real name. He wondered how. He debated whether or not to tell her his real name; the name given to him by his father.
“Well--” she urged.
No harm ever came from telling the truth. “My name is Gabriel Gray, and I’m special.” Now why the hell would he add that at the end? Idiot he called himself.
“Special, huh? What makes you say that,” she asked while swinging the door open.
As the door swung open, Sylar finally saw the face behind the mesmerizing voice. She was immensely short, but despite the shortness, he could tell she would put a fight. Still, he didn’t expect her to look---beautiful. She had dark hair and brown eyes with light skin with black t-shirt that said, “30 Second to Mars” and dark shorts.
He smiled at her. It was just the beginning of their acquaintance.
End of Chapter 1.
