Egan

A collective gasp went off as the gun skidded to a stop near the front tire of the Corvette. Then, every smart phone in the vicinity went off, as if on command.

After hustling Livia into the Corvette and tucking her in, Egan told the crowd, “She’s on new medications. Please don’t post those. You’ll violate her patient rights. Please. I’m begging you. Don’t post these on social media.”

“Are you kidding?” the twenty-something said. “These are going to go viral.” He waved his phone in the air. Then, he held it to his face and thumbed through his gallery. “Hey! They’re all blank.”

“Mine are, too!” another onlooker said.

Thank God. Our powers must have messed with the magnetics of their phones. Egan reached for the car door handle.

“I almost got killed,” the Prius guy said, sliding in front of her, blocking her way.

She poked his sternum with her fingernail.

“But here you stand, alive and well. And, you got her to release the gun,” Egan said, tossing her long hair over her shoulder, a fake smile pasted on her face. “You’re the hero here today.”

“Do you think?” His face lit up.

“No, I don’t think.” Egan waved her arms over her head. “You could have harmed her, the gun could have gone off, I could be dead right now,” she snapped, shoving him backward.

“But I…you said…” He pointed lamely at the gun.

“Fully loaded.” She plucked the magazine from the gun and pulled the slide catch back, locking it in position. Holding the magazine with two fingers, she waved it in his face, revealing the bullets. “I lied. Now get out of my way before I show you my other super powers,” she said. “Shoo. Get home to the wife and kids you were willing to fuck me to forget.”

A scowl formed on his face. “Who says I was willing to…?”

Egan pointed at the Prius. “Go!”

He turned and stalked toward his vehicle. “Fucking bitch,” he muttered.

“Douche bag,” Egan called.

Once Egan had the engine purring and the car heading in the right direction, she looked over at Livia.

Liv’s silent tears had turned into full blown sobs. “What’s going on? What’s wrong with me, Egan?”

“That’s what we’re going to find out. New plan. Let’s head to the M.E.s office.” She punched Rion’s number into the console phone display.

“Hey, anonymous.” His voice boomed through the car speaker.

A warm feeling filled her chest. “How do you know it wasn’t your mother calling?”

“Because I memorized your energy pattern the other night.”

Egan glanced at Livia.

She stared out the window like she wasn’t listening, but a slight smirk showed on her face.

She cleared her throat. “Livia’s with me. This is official business,” she said, offering up a big, fat clue so he didn’t say anything else about energy’s or kissing her or…

“What’s up?”

“Can we stop by? I know it’s late but we have more questions.”

“Sure. I could use the company. Where are you?”

“About twenty minutes away.”

“Okay, see you soon,” Rion said.

“Later.” She disconnected the phone.

“Okay, so, we’ll see what he can tell us about whatever’s going on with you.
