WHO: Nathan Petrelli, Mantis WHERE: The Hyperion WHEN: after the posts about Peter WHAT: Nathan needs to relate information and ask for help. RATING: TBD STATUS: thread; in-progress
Nathan made his way down the hallway quickly, having alerted everyone who needed to know right now, except two people. Mantis he knew would likely know soon enough, but he still wanted to tell the man himself, and Annie he would tell after. Interestingly enough, the two people in the building that could find Peter no matter where he had gone were those same two individuals. He wasn't certain he would be able to get Annie to understand the danger enough to heed any warnings, which was why he had decided to ask Mantis for help.
Every time Peter went out of reach, some part of Nathan braced for the next kidnapping, the next explosion, the next brief death of his brother. The only time he had ever set that feeling aside, even though it had been briefly, had come from that mental link. Later, when Peter had gotten this new power under control, Nathan intended to approach him about all of this, but for now he needed Mantis' help. Perhaps in more ways than just one.
The door open, Nathan hovered just inside it, waiting.
Can I come in?
He knew this method was easier for the man and, after so much experience with people in his head, he didn't even think anything of it.
