She heard the alarms well before Sylar arrived at her room, and how could she not? They'd been blaring in her ear for the last fifteen minutes, lights flashing, bathing the halls with blood red. There was protocol obviously, and Elle obeyed it with only an eye roll, leaving Level Five with her fingers already sparking with electricity. The prisoners were raucous, obnoxious, and slammed their fists on the glass, excited by the prospect of something different happening in their dull lives.
And Elle was too. She was getting rusty, only playing with idiots who couldn't fight back. Being benched had certain drawbacks, and one of them was an itch for action.
She felt sort of like a prisoner now, but she stalked down the halls with purpose. Obviously, no other agents had been successful with the intruder, otherwise the alarm would have shut the hell up by now. It just went to show, you just couldn't send a moron to do an easy job. And maybe Daddy would let her off the hook if she got this one.
She was surprised, turning down her hall, to notice her room door torn off, and her brows furrowed in suspicion and confusion, stalking forward faster to the doorway. It was a man with dark hair and broad shoulders, and Elle didn't even think past that before lifting her hand and electrocuting him.
