When Ava woke up a few hours later, the first thing she did was to look up, and sigh with relief once she confirmed she was in her room, and not in the hospital. Next, she scrambled out of bed, ignoring the post-awakening soreness of her whole body, and grabbed onto Lane, who was sitting on one of the bean bag sofas and playing games on his phone to pass the time.
"You're awake?" he asked, pausing the game. "What is… Ah."
There was no need to ask or say anything else, as everything was clear the moment Ava's wavelengths flowed into Lane's body.
She was a Guide.
And a damn good one, it seemed, based on the intensity of the flow. Or it could also be that they had a great compatibility - it had been discovered that the Guides worked better with some Espers rather than the others, although how and why it was, was still unknown. Either way, that was not the point.
