What Is This About?

John stares at the message, starting to think about what he saw. "We need to talk about this right now. Can you meet me by the lake?" John replies. Alexia replies, "Of course. I will see you there in a bit." John gets up out of bed & quickly gets dressed. He grabs his drawstring pack & starts putting his things in his bag. John puts the charging cable for his phone, knife, keys, lighter in his dresser, & his wallet with his fake ID & cash in it. He then quietly leaves the house, trying not to wake his mother.

He then starts to walk towards the lake, thinking about what Alexia said. "Was she seeing everything the same as what I saw? Who was that man? Who were the male & female they were talking about? What was that energy spike that they were talking about?" John keeps thinking about everything until he gets to the lake. Once he is at the lake, he sits down at his usual meeting spot & stares at the lake illuminated by the moonlight. After a little bit, Alexia pulls up to the lake. She gets out of the car & sits next to John. "So why did you want to meet here at this hour?

Couldn't we talk about this over the phone?" Alexia said. John replied, "I wanted to talk about this in person. I think there is something that happened to us."

Alexia looks at him, confused, "What do you mean, John?"

John looks at her, "Did this 'Whisper' talk about an energy spike of some kind?"

Alexia looks at him, surprised, "Yes… How did you know?"

John thinks for a bit, "Did the man tell her to keep a person named Aida Harper or Lillya Roberts informed about some danger?"

Alexia replies, "Yeah, I believe so. John, how do you know this?"

John sighs, "Because I had the same dreams, visions, or whatever it was as you have been having. I think something is going on here."

Alexia looks down for a moment then looks back at John, "Well, what do you think could have caused this to happen?"

John looks at the lake, "I think what happened at the treehouse might have caused it. I started to have the visions after that mysterious explosion that happened. My first vision happened when I was unconscious. Then I had another when I was asleep earlier."

Alexia replies, "I didn't have any visions while we were in the treehouse. I was there holding you, making sure you were alright."

John nods a bit, "What if the energy spike that they are talking about was that mysterious explosion that happened at the treehouse. Also, what if the male & female that they were monitoring near the energy spike was us."

John pauses for a moment then looks at Alexia, "Where did you go after you dropped me off?"

"I went to the store & got a few things that my parents told me to pick up. I also got a fe-" John interrupts her, "A few bottles of alcohol too, right?"

Alexia looks at him, a bit surprised. "Yeah, I wanted something to drink after what happened. Something was bothering me."

"I bet your parents told you to pick up eggs, cheese, & saltine crackers. You got the alcohol at 'Antique Chariot Liquor' & the food from 'Agreeing Berry', right?"

Alexia thinks for a bit, "I bet Whisper told you this in your vision, too, right?"

John nods and then replies, "I think the male & female they were talking about were both you & me."

Alexia replies, "Well, if that is true, then we might be Users, whatever that means. If we are Users, then we are in danger."

She pauses for a moment, "If we are the one he is trying to protect, what is this man trying to protect us from?"

Alexia looks down, sad at the thought of her dead parents. "Hey Dimples, you should ask Luke about this. See if he can help us find out more about what we saw."

She nods, "Yeah, that might be a good idea. He should be able to help us. He also will help me with anything I need. Let's go to my house & try to message him. Hopefully, he is awake."

John nods his head & replies, "Good idea, Dimples!"
