"Are you telling me that the three building models in there are actual real buildings that were shrunk down," I asked while tying up Jerry using the ropes that Debby handed me.
" I don't know about the others, might be used as backup. But I do know for sure that every time time someone walked in the trailer, he would shrink them and then place them on the shelves where they would walk in through the front door."
"I need to get in there. Can you shrink me down?"
I really did need to get in there. My gut was telling me all the answers that I was looking for could be found inside that building. The goal here was not to fight, but to save those kids. So if I could avoid combat as much as possible, that would be for the best.
"I could but only for and hour and a half. I just got these powers like two weeks ago. Shrinking inorganic objects is easier and I can do it without a time limit, but its different when it comes to organic matter. Jerry told me that he had his powers for five years that's why he could shrink people for twelve hours." she replied, "Also I need to warn you, twenty minutes before you came two other people showed up. It was a guy and a girl. The girl did this thing to Jerry while holding her finger to the temple of her head, he answered every question she asked and then he shrunk them when she asked for it. Weird thing is the second they entered the building he acted like everything was normal and the entire conversation hadn't happened."
"She must have been an Esper." I added.
When it came to powers they were mainly characterized into 5 groups.
The first were the Augmenters. These were individuals that had anything to do with increased strength or speed. The Silver Chimera pack was a perfect example, although they transformed into animals they still enhanced their speed and strength and even their natural senses. Most Augmenters also had a degree of invulnerability.
Second were the Esper. Their power set was comprised of anything that had to do with using their thoughts like telepathy, astral projection, telekinesis and even illusions.
The third group were the Elementals or the Pseudo-Elementals. The formers' powers are mainly to control the four main elements: Fire, Water, Air and Earth. While the latter are known to control the pseudo-elements like Time, Space, Light and dark.
Fourth group were the Techno-Fighters. They mainly relied on technology. It didn't matter if they give themselves cybernetic enhancements or, if they just used futuristic weapons they created in their labs. As long as you use a form of technology to fight, you were a Techno-Fighter
Last but not least, were the Uniques. These were people whose powers didn't fit into any of the other categories. Debby's shrinking power and my weapon summoning power fit into this category.
The girl definitely had to be an Esper. The fact that she made Jerry forget or made his mind process that they were someone else was the main sign for that she was an Esper. As for the guy, Debby didn't see him do anything that would lead her to guess his abilities.
"What did they look like?", I asked, trying to find out more just in case I encountered them
"Well the guy was tall and had blonde hair that was long and laid back. His costume was entirely black except for the chest area where it was white. He had a mask that covered his lower face, as in from the bridge of his nose to his jaw. As for the girl, she wore black leggings with a blue zipped up hoodie, she also had a mask that covered only her eyes. She had white hair that was tied up into a ponytail. I don't think they were bad guys, the girl told me that she would come back for me after she and her partner finished what they were doing. Don't ask me what they are doing in there because I have no idea."
"Don't worry you gave me more than enough information, all you need to do now is shrink me and place me near the backdoor of the model building."
"That I can do." she said while walking towards me. She grabbed my shoulders and added. "I don't need to tell you again. You have an hour and a half, after that you grow back to your original size. I don't need to tell you what happens when you do that."
As soon as she finished my body felt this weird sensation. I thought that my body would feel compressed because I was shrinking, but it was actually the opposite. It felt like my limbs were being pulled in different directions, but my body was fighting it. After ten seconds the process finished.
Before I even got to relish in the idea of being shrunk, a gigantic hand picked me by my torso and moved me into the trailer and then placed me at the back of the brown building.
I gave the giantess a thumbs up before I went inside the building through the backdoor.
