Outlaw Cloaks #11
“Why am I here?”
“Yes, that is what I asked.”
“Well…I don’t really know. First my sensor fell apart, which was a good thing. Then…I don’t know. I knew I couldn’t stay at home because Paradise would come looking for me. So I ventured off. But in a way, I didn’t. All I can say is that I was drawn here, like this place was pulling me in…”
“I see. Now, why do you think you are here?”
“Well, probably something about this energy thing. I don’t know too many people who can sprout a field of energy from their body.”
“Mhmm….Now, this will be my final question, and then I’ll let you have a go at me!”
“Geez, this is like a therapy session,”Wing thought to himself silently.
“No, this is not a therapy session. Just…an eye opener, eh?”
“Wait, you can read minds?”
The man ignored this.
“So why do you think you have black energy?”
”...I haven’t really thought about that. Well, black’s sort of dark, and I’ve been a pretty angry kid, so there might be a connection.”
”...Perhaps.”
