Gabriel and Mak booked their tickets and soon after their flight was about to take off, they spent their time cursing at each other as they always do and Mak tried to give Gabriel some advice about women...

Mak-Don't be so cold around girls mate.

Gabriel-What?

Mak-Even if you have a girl you like it's not smart to ditch other girls. Sweet talk is the best thing you can do.

Gabriel-If you said this without the Glamour spell I swear I would punch you in the face.

Mak-See, don't talk like that. Girls want you to care for them.

Gabriel-Why do I even listen to you? What do you know about girls?

Mak-I am sure that I have gone to more dates than you. Even with human girls.

Gabriel-That's because all you do is talk to easy girls.

Mak-That's not a nice thing to say.

Gabriel-So?

Mak-See that's what I am talking about, you are way too crude.

Gabriel-What do you want me to do?

Mak-Remember when you told me about that waitress?

Gabriel-Yeah, I think her name was Sophie.

Mak-And you sent her off without giving her a chance.

Gabriel-I don't care about other girls.

Mak-Really?When was your last date with Helen?

Gabriel-Um...

Mak-Exactly.That girl thinks you are dead. What would you even say to her if you meet her?

Gabriel-I don't...

Mak-You don't know, of course, you don't know.First of all you are going to need a new name to introduce yourself.

Gabriel-I can always try Kev...

Mak-No, you can't go on using Kevin as your name.

Gabriel-Why not?

Mak-What happens when you are not focused enough and you end up screwing up with that name. What would doc say if he finds out?

Gabriel-I am not sure.

Mak-He would get mad of course. Dude you need to forget about your former self and about that girl.

Gabriel-It's not that easy, besides I don't want to forget about Helen.

Mak continued to argue with Gabriel, their conversation lasted about as long as the trip back home. They arrived at the airport and as soon as they stepped outside Mak had an idea...

Mak-Let's go for a coffee somewhere.

Gabriel-Why?

Mak-What do you mean why? We are going to find some girls dude.

Gabriel-This again?

Mak-You are hopeless.

Gabriel-And you are ugly.

Mak-From a human perspective maybe, but I have a spell for that. You don't.

Gabriel-Screw you.No, we are going straight to Kevin's.

Mak-You are no fun at all.

Gabriel convinced Mak to go back home, they arrived just outside of Kevin's house and they saw a small group off people standing there.

Gabriel-Who are they?

Mak-I don't know.What are they doing here?

Gabriel-Is there any chance they are from Kevin's old job?

Mak-Let's go and ask them politely.

Gabriel and Mak approached them and Mak took the chance to ask them...

Mak-Hi, are you looking for something?

Man-Do you live here?

Mak-Yeah we do, along with our father and our sister.

Gabriel-Hm...?

Man-Your sister huh?

Mak-Yes, is there a problem sir?

Man-We are looking for a girl named Carmen, of course, she couldn't be your sister.

Gabriel-Why is that?

Mak-Gabe...

Gabriel-What?

Mak-Let the good man tell us why he is looking for this Carmen. Of course, she is not our sister.

Man-I have a job to do and it doesn't concern you.

Mak-May I ask why are you looking for this girl in our sidewalk?

Man-I can't answer that.

Mak-Why?

Woman-I think that enough Marc.

Marc-Would you mind Laura?

Gabriel-I see you introduced yourselves without us even asking. I am...Mundy by the way.

Mak-What?

Gabriel-We know their names now, Rick.It would be impolite not to introduce ourselves.

Mak-I see...

Gabriel-May I ask again what you are doing outside our house? (Mind Read time).

Marc-It doesn't concern you.(Erik is going to be pissed that we got the house wrong).

Gabriel-Mak.

Mak-Yeah.

Gabriel-Get inside.

MAk-Crap!

Gabriel grabbed the man and pinned him down holding his right arm up forcing him on the ground. The remaining two guys and Laura stood there as Gabriel turned to face them and ask...

Gabriel-What do you want with Carmen?

Marc-Who the hell are you?

Gabriel-I asked you something, do you want to keep your arm?

Marc-Our boss wants her.

Gabriel-Who is your boss? Erik?

Laura-How?Are you a psychic?

Gabriel-No, but I bet you are.

Mak was watching the whole scene from the window but he couldn't hear what they were saying.Kevin saw him peeking through the window.

Kevin-Mak?Where is Gabriel?

Mak-He is outside.

Kevin-Why is that idiot outside? Is he afraid of what's coming to him?

Mak-No, we saw a couple of strangers outside, apparently, they have some business with Carmen.

Kevin-Carmen?Why?

Mak-I don't know. I can't hear them.

Kevin-Why are you...

Mak-Gabriel told me to. He has someone pinned down.

Stolen story; please report.

Kevin-Why?

Mak-He probably knew something I didn't.

Meanwhile outside...

Marc-Laura take him off me.

Laura-I tried, he is too strong for my psychokinesis.

Gabriel-Psychokinesis?Explain everything to me now! Why are you after Carmen? What do you know about her?

Marc-It doesn't...Argh.!

Gabriel twisted his arm even more.

Gabriel-Tell me!

Laura-Our boss wants to talk to her.

Gabriel-Why?

Laura-We are from an esper group called Order of Echos. Erik is our boss, a level 7 esper.

Gabriel-(Level 7? That's the same as Carmen.)What does he want?

Laura-We don't know. He didn't tell us, we were asked to find this girl and bring her to him.

Gabriel-Go back, and tell Erik that if he comes anywhere near this place again I will be here waiting.

Marc-You are no match for Erik...Argh.

Gabriel put even more strain on Marc's arm.

Gabriel-What was that?

Marc-I said you are no match for our boss.

As soon as Marc finished his sentence the other 3 people disappeared in front of Gabriel's eyes.That immediately made him ask Marc...

Gabriel-Where are they?

Marc-The boss teleported them.

Gabriel-What?

Marc-He is here...

Mak-Gabriel!

Gabriel-What happened?

Mak-Carmen is gone!

Gabriel-What!?START TALKING!

Marc-The boss took her. He teleported along with her back to our base.

Gabriel-Where is your base?

Marc-Why would I tell you?

Gabriel- I will tear your arm.

Marc-I don't care. I will never tell you.

Gabriel-We will see...

Gabriel took Marc into the house, he hit him on the head and along with Mak tied him with a rope, they waited for him to wake up in order to ask him about their base...

Marc-Wha...What?

Gabriel-Where is Carmen?

Marc-What have you done to me?

Gabriel-Nothing.Yet.

Marc-Let me go.

Mak-I don't think you are in any position to demand anything.

Marc-My boss will find out about this and...

Gabriel-And what? He teleported your friends right? Why did he leave you here then?

Marc-No...Boss?

Gabriel-Tell me everything.

Marc-No.

Gabriel punched him in the face several times until he started bleeding.

Marc-I...I will tell you.

Kevin-Where is your base?

Marc-We are currently housed in an empty storehouse close to the shipyard.

Gabriel-What does your boss want with Carmen?

Marc-That I don't know.

Gabriel-Don't lie to me!

Mak-He is not lying, he already told us about their hideout.

Gabriel-Fine.I am going to get Carmen back.

Marc-You will never defeat Erik.

Gabriel-I wouldn't be so sure about that.

Mak-Why?

Marc-Erik's ESP is at level 7.

Mak-What?

Gabriel-Doesn't that mean he is the same as Carmen?

Mak-Carmen's powers are a fraction of what level-7 espers can actually do.

Marc-This Carmen girl is a level-7 esper?

Mak-Yes.

Marc-I know what Erik is after.

Gabriel-Tell me!

Marc-He wants to mate with her.

Gabriel-What?

Kevin-What?

Mak-What?

Marc-If he mates with a female level-7 esper, the offspring will be extremely powerful.

Gabriel-Carmen is not old enough for something like that! That's unforgivable! He wants to do that against her will?

Marc-Erik doesn't bother himself with such trivial matters.He wants an heir to lead us espers to the top of this world.

Kevin-Trivial?

Gabriel-Damn!Why do things like that have to happen all the time!? Why is every problem coming to strike down on us?

Mak-Marbas wasn't actually a problem for us. You wanted revenge.

Gabriel-Guess what I am going to do now?

Kevin-This time I have to agree with you Gabriel. We can't let Carmen in the hands of that fiend.

Gabriel-I am going there now.

Mak-We are going to leave so soon?

Gabriel-You are not coming with me this time. I can't wait for you to slow me down.I am going there alone.

Mak-Why?

Kevin-That's not very wise Gabriel, Mak knows about he powers of these espers.

Gabriel-So does our little friend here.Tell me.

Marc-I don't know the full extent of Erik's power.

Gabriel-What's your power?

Marc-Physical enhancement.

Gabriel-You are useless then...

Gabriel focused his energy in his left hand and ignited Marc's head instantly blowing it up and killing him.

Mak-Damn it, Gabriel!

Kevin-Why?

Gabriel-I am angry.

Mak-Who is going to clean this mess now?

Kevin-You know who.

Mak-Fuck.

Gabriel-I am going to the shipyard.

Gabriel took off to go to the shipyard in the town and find the storage house that Erik and the Order of Echos is located. Carmen is in a terrible situation and Gabriel is the only one capable of rescuing her. Erik is supposed to be extremely

strong, Marc told Gabriel that he wasn't even a match for Erik, one thing is for certain, a big battle is going to take place in the near future and Gabriel will has one more job to do in order to achive his goal of bringing justice to this world.
