Character History

Side Story:Mother Part 1

Tessa waits for Samantha in the back seat of their car and makes her presence clear after witnessing Samantha turn a pen into a flower. Tessa requests that they begin their assignment as their target is on the move.

After arriving outside of Wesly Ford's hotel, Tessa reports to Samantha that Ford has the ability of Hypnotic Touch and the two begin their assignment as soon as noticing the absense of gaurds at the entrance. Once Tessa and Samantha enter the hotel, they find dozens of posters with the message "A Man Who Could Move A Nation". Wondering how Ford could control so many people, the women discover that their target has been watching them surrounded by his followers. Tessa succumbs to Ford's ability and kneels before him, pledging her loyalty.

Tessa, still under theinfluence of Wesly, sits with Samantha as approaches the women, thanking them for their love.

She later accomponies Samantha to Wesly's funeral, commenting on the tormenting feeling of loss as a side effect from Wesly's Mind Control. Tessa jokes with Samantha on how she "turned Wesly's insides out" and Samantha suddenly reveals that she is dying. Tessa is shocked at this as she witnesses Samantha poorly transmutate a pen into a wilting flower. Samantha has Tessa promise that she will look out for Tyson and never tell him the truth about her death. Tessa agrees and watches as her partner and friend walks away.
