“Why did you disconnect?”
Sebastian growled as he himself extracted his consciousness from the Earth’s
web.
“There’s
no point in standing around now playing Pictionary when the other soldier can
make his way to us and we can speak in person” I replied.
“You
can be a real piece of work sometimes. You bloody well know that we could have
continued searching for more warriors. We could have seen the full potential of
this glowing map She’s made for us.”
“Do
it yourself if you fucking want! You speak as if you’re so sure about
everything. Why do you think the second warrior tapped into our connection at
precisely the time when we were connected? And for only a split second for that
matter! They knew we were there somehow, and I for one can’t feel the web if I’m
not connected. What if it was a false cry for help?”
“You
can’t know that. It could have just been a coincidence.”
“Why
does our Mother’s web glow Sebastian? Why does it fucking glow? What I saw in
the vision she sent us was silver, it was fucking silver and hard like ore
trapped within a rock” I exploded with irritation. He refused to analyze the
information that was in front of him. Maybe he did just see things clearer than
I did, he saw what he thought he was meant to see whereas I was bombarded with
contradictions and confusing flashes of facts.
I
watched his face as he worked through what I had just said.
