East

The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

I wasn't used to seeing other supes use their powers so openly, but I don't even know if the passersby noticed with all the rest of the commotion. The poor driver still looked to be in shock anyway. Henry didn't look altogether too thrilled that I knew about his power either. He confirmed that he could do it and I couldn't help but smile, despite the situation we were currently in. "I didn't know anyone else could do that. Does it give you headaches too?" I couldn't help my curiosity, though I did instantly feel sorry that I wasn't thinking more of the accident I'd created. As if thinking the same thing, Henry looked around before saying we should get going before the cops show up. I bit my bottom lip as I looked back at the driver then back to Henry. I knew he was right, but my morals were arguing back with me. "I mean, I guess so. But won't they just hunt me down since I was involved? There's a lot of witnesses..." I nudged my head as discreetly as I could toward the presently growing crowd.

Looking down at Henry's extended hand, I felt torn. He was definitely right. If the cops got involved, they'd either figure out we had powers and that would get to the Dark Hunters of Sacrosanct, or they'd never believe us and maybe they'd just lock me up or something, thinking I'm crazy. Either way, it didn't look good. Swallowing, I made my decision and took Henry's hand, allowing myself to be led to the woods. As we got closer to the cover of the trees, I glanced up at him in question. "Should we shift?" I said in a low voice, hoping we weren't being followed.
