His sister was trying to tell me something. Which is impossible. I don’t communicate with victims via visions; I simplyseethem.
Yet she saw me,I think, considering the vision.Is she a seer, too?
She’s part V-Clan, part Z-Clan Omega.
It’s… it’s very possible.
Which means… which means she can see the future. Or perhaps has another ability tied to fortunetelling.
Wait…
I look down at my rune and see it glowing defensively on my skin. I thought that just meant it was working, that it was glowing to signify that it was on.
But what if it’s more than that.
What if it’sactivelyprotecting me?
I thought dragons might be the source messing with my visions. I never considered that it could be another Z-Clan Omega.
Nikiski.
Has she been feeding me images?I sit up off the ground, ignoring the pang in my stomach.Lunar Sector…
Was it all a lie? Cael’s death? The blood?
I can’t see any of it now.
It’s like the vision never existed.
I look down at the rune again.
And it happened when I wasn’t protected…
“Oracle,” I breathe.
That explains all the fuzziness, the shifting visions, theconfusion.
I have no idea what was real and what was implanted.
But I canseethe Alphas coming for me now.
Just as I canseeGrey on the floor with a bullet wound in his head. He’s even wearing the same sweats he left in.
However, there’s a lot of blood on him. Open wounds.Lashes, I recognize.He’s being tortured.
Now or in the future?
That part I can’t determine.
But he’s alive.
I can feel him now that the rune is in place. I can feel his wards firing, too.
It’s like everything has suddenly become clear again.
If only I couldhearhim.
Grey!I shout, wishing our connection worked.Grey, if you can hear me, tell me how to find you!
