Jensen balked in surprise. "That was you?"
The story was well covered on the news. Given his habits of checking scrolls every day, it was hard to miss. They compared the attack at the market to the sheer forces seen in Jeddah. Even the government responded to these alleged 'special abilities' popping up all over the place. Now, the officer whom Jensen recognized must be Ivan, admitted to the involvement of strange powers. He didn't even try to hide it. Ivan's was the only the second account of the gifted Jensen encountered, himself excluded.
"That means..,"
he started to say, but his thoughts drifted before he formed the words. Power in combat. Power in terror. Power in healing. Was this is all the same power?
Jensen's gaze refocused as he studied Ivan. "You tried to stop him? Does that mean you can... you can also?"
But he couldn't finish the question. If Ivan told him what he thought that meant an entire shift in Jensen's perspective on the gift. What he thought was from God was found randomly in men.
