"I've never been that scared. Not just for them but me, too. My ability is usually what makes it so I'm not scared. But I was pretty sure I was going to kill all of us."

Thank God that older kid - I can't believe I never got his name - saw and he helped me out to the street and hailed me a cab." And that was how she'd ended up on his doorstep.
