            “Andy?  What’s the matter?”  I almost run into him as he stops and spins to face me.  He hesitates and then begins walking again motioning for me to follow.  When we reach the room we have been staying he glances around quickly and then follows us in.  As soon as everyone’s inside he closes the door as quietly as possible and then turns to us.

            “Niko… I really like you and Nina.  I don’t want to see you get hurt when I could have helped you.  Seth isn’t as friendly and caring as he’s trying to make you believe he is.”  He stops talking for awhile and walking towards him I begin talking.

            “What do you mean?  Seth couldn’t possibly want to hurt us he was being so nice.  He’s even giving us a bigger, more comfortable room…” I trail off as I realize Nina is in the room and listening to us.  Grabbing Andy’s arm I pull him into the bathroom and shut the door.  He immediately starts talking again in a more hushed voice.

            “I’m not sure what he’s planning exactly.  All I know is that I overheard him talking to someone about what he’s going to do.  I only heard him saying that he won’t try anything until he has your full trust.  Then he opened the door and I had to act as if I hadn’t heard anything.  That’s all I can tell you. I have to go before they notice I’m missing.”

            He turned to leave.  As he walked out the door he told me to have our stuff gathered and ready to go in an hour so he could take us to our new room.  With one last sympathetic look he left the room.  I sat on the edge of one of the beds and watched Nina and Gadvar as I thought about what Andy had said.  Gadvar had his wings out and had grabbed Nina by the arms.  He would fly upwards with her above one bed and when she was least expecting it he would drop her onto the bed.  Even Nina’s giggling couldn’t raise my black mood.
