"A trap..." Morgan grinned.
" Of course it's a trap, that's the entire point of ambushing and outnumbering two people, no?"
Lucian forced out a strained smile.
"No, the reason Talia can't fight, that's why this is a trap."
His eyes warily swept over the gathered masked figures.
"He's here somewhere, he's doing something with her mind.
Morgan frowned turning to the dazed girl.
Just then Talia snarled and lunged at Morgan.
"Die!"
Morgan gasped taking a step back.
His eyes narrowed in confusion.
" Die?"
Lucian moved before he did, slamming the back of Talia's head with the back of his blade.
Her eyes rolled up into her head, her mouth opening.
" I didn't want to do this," Lucian muttered.
Turning to Morgan, he shouted.
"One of them is a peculiar Talented, his power warps the mind. He was making her see things. I know because he tried it on me for moment, but I managed to shake it off. So watch out for him."
" Well, that's just creepy," Morgan murmured.
