Xander rolled his eyes at Seven's antics. Biting the coin. At least his audience took it for what it was. The kid didn't want anything more than free information. Even a lie would have suited him just fine, and he pretty much admitted to it. But there was a story to the coin. Xander didn't know what it was. He saw flickers of images, mostly around Cruz while he held the coin.
There were dark tunnels, and smoke filled caverns. Slithering shadows dripping and shaping the things it touched. The vision passed as quickly as it had set on, and Xander reached for his now empty glass with disappointment. "Fuck!" he mumbled under his breath.
The boy watched Xander. "What?" he growled. Though he quickly apologized. "Sudden headache, sorry."
"You saw something?"
Xander laughed. "I see a lot of things. You, The lovely Ms. Zeyha. Seven. All these fabulous people." Xander tried to make it a sarcastic joke.
Cruz smiled. "What did you see?"
"What makes you think I saw anything important?"
The boy growled slightly. "Everyone here can do extraordinary things. I have a friend who says that people see things. Dangerous things. Or weird things. Visions. Prophecies."
Xander growled. "You know a snake?"
Cruz laughed. "He's not a snake."
Xander rolled his eyes. "This man has a serpent eating its own tail tatooed on his left forearm?" Xander didn't need confirmation. "He's a snake. Stay away from him. He'll no sooner kill you for what you are than you would killing a spider."
Cruz grinned. "His tattoo is gone. Lost it in a fight with a monster. But he is the one who taught me to do what I do. And several others. He's not going to hurt me, or you. But I beleive you if you say you saw something."
Xander growled. "I didn't see anything." He turned to the bar and tried to get the attention of the bar keep. He needed another drink damned the prices.
