	\|Upon entering Alex's apartment, Rachel is shocked by how cluttered it is. They both set about searching through the place for half an hour and then meet up to trade notes. Jason and Rachel agree that the place is a dump, and Jason notes he didn't find any evidence that Alex had been contacted. Rachel says that she found one pay-as-you-go cell phone with a long-dead battery. Jason responds that it is odd that he lives in SoCal and doesn't have a working cell phone. Rachel replies that he may own multiple phones, and that she also found a laptop.		\|Upon entering Alex's apartment, Rachel is shocked by how cluttered it is.

Rachel replies that he may own multiple phones, and that she also found a laptop.

	Rachel notes finding the laptop on top of more stuff than under, and suspects he might have used it occasionally. Jason then finds the power supply in some laundry and boots it up. A mail program opens automatically and begins downloading. Jason comments that Alex has lots of unread mail, and then notices that the emails are disappearing. Rachel spots a tiny LED glowing on the edge of the laptop cover and realizes it's a webcam. Next, Rachel says hello to [[Rebel\|REBEL]] and Jason asks what she just said. Then, a new ~~e-mail~~ arrives in the in-box with the subject line "Leave now Rachel!". Rachel tells Jason to turn off the laptop, explaining that someone is hacking and deleting the files.

	After Jason closes the laptop and ejects the battery, he begins cursing himself for a second, and Rachel tells him she is going to go call Danko. Rachel goes to the alley behind Alex's apartment building to use a pay phone that is there. She notes to herself not using a pay phone in years, recalling the closest thing being large public comm units at her base in Iraq. Rachel had used one to call her grandfather once after she got deployed, hoping to trade Marine Corps stories, but her grandfather didn't want to talk about anything military-related.

	Rachel tells Dave that she doesn't know why he thinks she knows anything, adding that his son is probably just hanging out somewhere. Dave replies that he heard about the comic book store, and that a cop asked about tickets, but the city doesn't know anything about it. He then asks who her people are. Rachel replies that she isn't at liberty to say, and tries to escape. Dave tells her to stop and reaches for something under his jacket. Rachel knocks Dave aside and gets about five feet from him when she hears him clock a 12-gauge shotgun and stops still.

	Dave levels his shotgun on Rachel's face as she turns around. He tightens his finger, and Rachel fears he is about to kill her. She then feels a now familiar strange tingle start, her adrenalin pumping as she closes her eyes and prepares for something. But then Jason arrives and tells Rachel to look out.

She then feels a now familiar strange tingle start, her adrenalin pumping as she closes her eyes and prepares for something. But then Jason arrives and tells Rachel to look out. Then, all the lights on the block simultaneously turn off, and Rachel notices nearby air conditioners are also winding down.

			Rachel, Jason, and Dave stand in the darkness while their eyes adjust, and then Rachel or someone moves, and Dave fires his shotgun at Rachel. The blast passes through the air where Rachel was standing, and Rachel realizes she has [[teleportation\|teleported]] onto the roof of Alex's apartment building. Rachel watches Jason scream at Dave in the dark below, pointing his pistol in Dave's direction. Then, Dave lets go of his gun, kicks it away, and lays down on his face. Rachel then looks up and around the city, noticing that the whole city's power grid has been knocked out. She assumes that REBEL has saved her life; and guesses that when she finds out the cost for doing so, she will wish she was dead.

	A couple days later, Rachel is practicing firing her weapon at the shooting range with Jason. She notes to herself having been there a long time--that Jason was starting to look tired, but she was used to the practice having practiced shooting holes in stuff as therapy since the day in Pinehearst when she found out about her condition.

She notes to herself having been there a long time--that Jason was starting to look tired, but she was used to the practice having practiced shooting holes in stuff as therapy since the day in Pinehearst when she found out about her condition.

	Jason starts up another round of firing. Rachel watches him shoot, placing his elbow low in a way she recalls a lot of Navy SEALs do. She watches the intensity on his face, under the ear protectors and goggles, and figures he wants to beat her bad. When Jason places down his ~~pistal~~ and stops the timer, he gets an eighty-six percent, and challenges Rachel to beat it. However, Rachel replies that she is done for day, and is tired. Jason insists that Rachel shoot the targets, but then Danko walks in and interrupts them.		Jason starts up another round of firing.

	Rachel recalls that a day ago, one of the fugitives had made it all the way to his apartment, almost killing him. Some of the agents started looking at Danko differently, but she didn't. Danko rewarded that loyalty with an assignment.		Rachel recalls that a day ago, one of the fugitives had made it all the way to his apartment, almost killing him.

	Upon arriving outside Liliane's house, Rachel is dressed in standard gear again and instructs Jason to keep watch outside. He replies that he can't cover the whole house and asks if she wants to call for a team. Rachel says no, and for him to just watch the back of the house. She adds that she doesn't expect anyone to to flee out the front.		Upon arriving outside Liliane's house, Rachel is dressed in standard gear again and instructs Jason to keep watch outside.

She adds that she doesn't expect anyone to to flee out the front.

	Rachel exits the car, walks up to Liliane's front door. While walking up the front lawn, she notes the toys in the front yard and suspects Liliane lives with her family. After knocking on the door, Rachel overhears Liliane's mother ask what she has done now in the next room. A moment later, Liliane appears at the door, a short, cute girl with beach-blonde hair and blue eyes. Rachel picks up that Liliane is more afraid than surprised, asks her father, who had answered the door, to speak with Liliane alone. The father says no, but Liliane says it's okay. He then leaves the front room after ~~answering~~ him that she doesn't know what it is about.		Rachel exits the car, walks up to Liliane's front door.

	Liliane whispers to Rachel that she can't believe Rachel came to her home. Rachel talks with Liliane and learns that Liliane is a government informant, and had a drug charge or something from a party at her community college. [[Danko's team\|Danko's men]] had called and given her a way out in exchange for her help. They told her Alex was taking some special steroids or something, and she was supposed to report if she noticed him do anything weird. She had called in some tips right before he had disappeared, and now she is afraid to leave the house.		Liliane whispers to Rachel that she can't believe Rachel came to her home.
