It was a rainy night and Ace was looking for shelter somewhere that wouldn't bother noticing her young age. Her dark clothes were soaked straight through and her dark hair clung to her face and dripped water onto her shoulders. All in all, she was wet and miserable. At least it wasn't cold outside, but it was days like this that made her have second thoughts about running away from the facility. She would have been dry and wearing clean clothing if she was back there.
"Hey sweetie, are you all alone?" crooned a male voice. He was slightly disheveled with greyish-brown hair and wore a trenchcoat. "I can keep you company. I like kids."
Ace rarely judged people and people being different didn't bother her at all. What she didn't like was the way he looked at her. It wasn't the look of concern Jesse had for her, or a look of hoping for company. There was something very bad about the way he looked at her. She didn't understand exactly what was bad about it, but she knew she didn't want to be near him. There weren't many people out, so she honed in on his mind and took a look inside.
Recoiling, she glared at him. "Go away. I don't want your company." His idea of 'company' was disgusting.
Ignoring her, he reached out to grab her arm. "That's not very nice. I'm just being friendly, sweetie."
"Don't touch me!" she shrieked, staring him right in the eyes and giving him a strong jolt of her power.
The man let out a choked out screech as his already disturbed mind began to lose its grip on reality. He made a weak gurgling noise before he fell to the ground, harmless and catatonic.
