				Paris was beautiful.&nbsp; Nathan had said he would take her one day...but Claire had insisted on normal.&nbsp; A plane trip....not with my dad, Superman.<br><br>And now she watched the city from the roof of a hostel in Montparnasse.&nbsp; It seemed natural to disappear among the freaks in the heart of the city.&nbsp; No one would find her here...not easily anyway.&nbsp; Not with a forwarding address, nothing.<br><br>She almost regretted calling Angela now.&nbsp; She'd called her from a pay phone in a cafe, telling her not to worry.&nbsp; Who was she kidding? Angela probably dreamed this.<br><br>Claire sighed, shaking her head.&nbsp; At least Sylar would leave her family alone now... And maybe she could start over here, where no one knew her.&nbsp; Stay away from people if she could.&nbsp; Sylar's words haunted her.&nbsp; If she stayed away from others maybe she could live a normal life.&nbsp; But then again, that meant that people--<em>special</em> people, people with abilities--would be free to be hunted by him.&nbsp; And she couldn't stand by and let that happen.<br><br>Gritting her teeth, she pulled her phone out of her pocket as it buzzed and looked at it.<br><br><strong>Safe for now, -Rebel</strong><br><br>"Gee thanks," she muttered to herself, stuffing the phone back in her pocket.&nbsp; She almost wished for something to happen.

				Sylar hadn't committed a lot of murders lately which was odd for one would expect someone like him to track down every mutant human around and take their power as soon as he could. But he had only been responsible for one death, that of a young man much like Elle actually who had the ability to shoot blue electric lightning from his fingertips and toes. The only difference was that he was a guy not a girl but that didn't matter to Sylar, all he was interested in was the power itself and the carrier meant nothing at all.<br><br>Not to mention the fact that Elle could only channel it through her hands and this man could channel it through his toes as well which was a bit odd. Sylar's hunger had driven him to Paris France a day after he had obtained that ability for he had heard of a power being there that was supposedly quite cool and he wanted to see what it was. He did not know what it was as of yet but from his resources it was something he would find interesting and that had him hooked so he was here to find out what it was and where he could find it.<br><br>He didn't expect to run into anyone he knew since everyone he knew was either dead or in the United States...<br><br>Sylar had no need to book a room in a hotel or find an apartment or house to live in. No, he would simply break into someone's home and use their lodgings for it wasn't as though he intended to stay anywhere for longer than a day and there was no need for checkout either. No, he wanted to research this city and find out where this 'special ability' could be hiding and who would be the carrier and that was more difficult than it sounded for some people were very good at being secretive if they didn't want anyone to know who they were or what they could do.<br><br>Where should he start looking...well most likely the newspaper to see if anything strange had happened lately. So he headed off to one of those news stands.

				Heading back inside, Claire sighed softly, a glimmer of a smile flickering over her features, before she stopped and looked over her shoulder.&nbsp; The Eiffel tower loomed over the building she was staying in...one of the old apartments that pre-dated the steel structure.&nbsp; It had been gutted around the 1920s and refurbished for more proper apartments, and even at that they were small to modern standards...but they were cozy.<br><br>Looking down toward the street, she saw a familiar figure...&nbsp; Setting her jaw, she headed toward the staircase, bounding down it as fast as she could, and pushing out onto the street.&nbsp; The paper vendor was yammering on to one of his usuals, but that's not who she wanted.&nbsp; Pulling two francs out of her pocket, she pressed the coins into the man's hand, "Le Monde, sil vous plait..."&nbsp; The man counted her coins, and handed her a paper with a wide smile...the paper only cost half a franc.<br><br>Smiling back, almost nervously, she clamped a hand around Sylar's arm, and the paper with the other, tugging.&nbsp; "Come with me..." she hissed at him.

				Picking up a newspaper from the cafe stand he opened it to browse through the various sections, searching for something to catch his eye and didn't see Claire come over to him until she was almost upon him. He recognized the voice though when Claire spoke in French to the paper vendor and paid for the newspaper he was holding which he closed a second later. Now what was Clarie Bennett doing in Paris, France? He'd just left her back in California a few days ago.<br><br>"Well if it isn't the cheerleader, come all this way to try and stop me and gain your revenge for what I did to you. That <em>is</em> why you're after me, isn't it? Or could it be that you have something different in mind, Claire?"<br><br>He asked, the corners of his lips twitching into a slight smirk as he regarded her and let her tug him away to who knew where, it wasn't as though she could hurt him after all. Not since he now had her power and was invincible, thanks to her. Sylar raised a brow when she told him to come with her, that didn't seem to require an answer, she was already taking him somewhere so why ask? Or rather demand for that was a demanding tone and if she wasn't care he might take offense.<br><br>"Where's your father? And Nathan and Peter?"<br><br>Sylar asked as he eyed Claire, waiting for her to respond for Noah and Peter tended to be a pain in his ass and Nathan was just annoying, he needed to be taken out as soon as possible in his mind. He drew his arm back from Claire as he leaned up against the side of one of the old French buildings in the enclosed space the alleyway allowed, waiting for Claire to tell him why she was here and what she wanted from him for obviously she wanted something.

				She rolled her eyes, still hauling him into the building.&nbsp; He asked too many questions that the inquisitive French would be too interested in, and then she'd have to dig them out of it.&nbsp; Turning on him, she pushed the paper into his hands,&nbsp; "I was fine before I saw you here.&nbsp; No one knows I'm here...well, except you now."&nbsp; Her tone was vicious as she glared up at him.<br><br>"And what do you think I could do now?&nbsp; At least if you're gonna be poking around Paris, I can offer you a place to stay.&nbsp; But don't kill anybody, okay?&nbsp; I don't think I have enough of a grasp of French to explain to the police...anything."<br><br>Her dad had always talked about "one of us and one of them"...and even though she knew he meant one "normal" person and one "special" person, it would be easier to keep an eye on him if she even tried to be nice.<br><br>Turning to head up the stairs, she looked back at him,&nbsp; "Don't make me regret this."

				It seemed as though Claire was in quite a rush to get him out of the public spotlight and Sylar raised a brow, thinking about that. Did she seriously think that he cared about whether he was recognized or not? Or maybe there was another reason. Sylar could have stayed where he was, using his telekinesis to stop Claire from trying to drag him around.<br><br>But he didn't. No, he was rather amused with the cheerleader. Once they had gotten inside the building Claire was so adamant about getting him into, she suddenly pushed the paper into his hands. Sylar grasped it and continued to stare down into her eyes, waiting for Claire to explain herself for if she was simply trying to chat he wasn't interested.<br><br>Not unless what she wanted to talk about was of interest and that meant powers, abilities and the location of said things. Or what she was doing here for he was interested in that as well. Why had Claire Bennett come all this way to Paris France? Could she be running away? Did normal life not suit her anymore despite the lecture she'd given him?<br><br>"Isn't that a bitch? You thought you were alone and I pop up here, tricky thing coincidences." Sylar said with a wry grin and the look on his face was still one of amusement, for nothing Claire said could really hurt him. The viciousness in her voice was simply turning him on but of course she probably didn't realize that or else she would have stopped.<br><br>He knew her. Better than anyone else did. He'd been inside her brain. It probably bugged her and he wondered how often she thought of it. Sylar actually chuckled when Claire offered him a place to stay as long as he didn't go around killing people and he tilted his head to the side, almost as though he were considering her words.<br><br>But of course he really wasn't. Why should he? It wasn't as though she meant anything to him other than entertainment. "Don't kill anybody. Now that's simply not possible, it's what I came here to do so it would be rather strange if I didn't go through with it." He said his dark eyes flickering over to Claire once more and his lips twitched slightly.<br><br>"Tell me Claire, what can you offer me to not kill anyone while I'm staying at your place? Is there anything? Persuade me." Sylar said with a sly look and watched as she headed up the stairs to pause and tell him not to make her regret helping him out and he let out an almost inaudible sigh. He hadn't asked for her help.<br><br>She had quite a lot of courage to demand something of him. Something that he couldn't really control most of the time anyway. But he straightened up and headed up the stairs, following Claire for now since she had yet to persuade him. And he wouldn't be leaving until he got an answer.

				<em>Persuade him?&nbsp; With what?</em> ...He couldn't be serious.&nbsp; Stopping dead at the top of the stairs, hand nearly to the doorknob to her flat, she drew herself up straight in near shock.&nbsp; Blinking a few times, she looked down at him.&nbsp; <br><br>"We're not like other people, Sylar.&nbsp; <em>They</em> don't understand.&nbsp; And what people don't understand, they're afraid of, and they think they need to get rid of... You and me, there'd be a regular witch hunt flare up in the middle of Paris.&nbsp; This isn't some sort of play toy, you know..."<br><br>Her voice dropped to a near whisper,&nbsp; "And <em>if</em> I persuade you...what makes that so sure that you won't go off and take someone else's power anyway?&nbsp; You haven't found someone else after me, have you?"&nbsp; Someone else dead, some other unknown power...besides immortality...

				Of course he was serious. He was always serious. Or so it seemed. Sylar smirked when Claire drew herself up straight as though she were offended by something he had said and that amused him greatly since he liked to tease her. She was so easy to toy with it wasn't even much of a challenge. He rolled his eyes when Claire told him that they weren't like normal people and before she could say much more he had cut her off mid-sentence as he moved closer to her.<br><br>"Nothing I haven't heard before. I don't care if they understand or not. I'm not looking for acceptance, unlike you." Sylar said and tilted his head to the side as though he had just thought of something and his eyes flickered over Claire for a few moments, almost as if he were considering her. "For that matter, why do you want acceptance? To fit in, be normal? Why not be special and live the way you want to? If you join with me I'm sure we can help each other out."<br><br>He said with a smile and his eyes sparkled with amusement at the thought, yes she couldn't be exactly like him but they could become a team, work together. It might be fun. "You'd get to see tons of unique powers and it won't matter if people don't accept us, I can take care of us, make sure we don't die but then again we can't, can we?" Sylar said with a chuckle and he raised a brow when Claire actually asked if she did persuade him how was she to trust him not to kill.<br><br>"I didn't think you were actually serious about not killing. I don't do it for fun, you know. It's an unavoidable side effect when I obtain a new power." Sylar said as he looked over at Claire, wondering what she expected him to do, did she really think he would stop? It wasn't as though he could control this, it was a part of him that he couldn't control. "I guess you'll just have to trust me. You can do that can't you Claire?" Sylar said with a smirk and gazed at the young woman.<br><br>When she asked if he had found someone else after her, Sylar grinned. "What do you think?" He inquired, wondering how Claire would respond.

				Claire stopped and just looked at the man before her.&nbsp; He seemed like an eager little boy, off to find adventure.&nbsp; Holding out a hand to him, the gesture was almost gentle.<br><br>"C'mon..." she said encouragingly.&nbsp; "I think we need to sit down and just...talk.&nbsp; You and me...figure out what we're gonna do."<br><br>Maybe then she could think, try to explain why she wanted things to be normal...&nbsp; Why she ran away... Why she insisted on helping him.&nbsp; Maybe he was the closest thing she had to a normal life, and that's why she wanted to help him...&nbsp; It would be a question she'd have to think about.

				Sylar did not like the way Claire's voice and demeanor changed suddenly. It almost seemed as though she was treating him like a child and that made him rather annoyed, who did she think she was anyway? He took a deep breath and let it out slowly so he wouldn't lose control of himself because then he really would be immature. Sylar prided himself on being a mature adult. <strong>"Don't talk down to me. I'm not stupid."</strong> He warned her and ignored her outstretched hand.<br><br>He wasn't the touchy-feely kind of guy and probably never would be. Anything that had to do with emotions was foreign to him and always had been. <strong>"I know exactly what I'm going to do. You need to figure out what <em>you're</em> going to do. And you'd better think fast. I'm not a patient man."</strong> Sylar said as he gazed at Claire, waiting for the cheerleader to respond. This talk was starting to get boring and he wasn't about to spend all his time with Claire, even if he did decide to take her up on her offer.<br><br>Sylar needed new powers and he needed them fast. It was only a matter of time before another power was added to his list. Outside the world continued to go about its usual business and the sounds of French accents were apparent and Sylar's lips curled up into a smirk as a dark gleam came to his eyes. If Claire didn't up her reasoning skills he would be gone in the next few minutes, he had come to France for a specific reason and she was keeping him from it.<br><br>Now, if he were amused by Claire he wouldn't mind putting it off but if she was simply going to try and talk him out of rebuilding his assortment of powers Sylar would not stay to listen to that. In fact that reminded him he needed to search the papers to see where this 'special power' might be located. His source had not revealed itself and only had contacted him that one time back in the States which was a bit annoying but without his old powers he couldn't do much about it.<br><br>Sylar opened the paper and browsed through it as he waited for Claire's response. If she didn't say anything of interest within the next five minutes he would be gone.

				Sighing in exasperation, she let her arm drop.&nbsp; Turning her back on him, she turned her key in the door.&nbsp; "I'm not talking down to you...it's called compassion.&nbsp; I guess I figured if we might run into each other...I'd at least try to be nice."<br><br>Pushing into her apartment, she looked out a him,&nbsp; "You know, the French are really nosy...you might wanna come inside if you don't want them thinking we're a bitching couple."&nbsp; Blushing a little, she raised her eyebrows at him.&nbsp; <br><br>And that was the only way she could talk to him properly...figure out what he did to her.

				Sylar watched her as she turned her back on him, something few people did who knew of his powers and what he was capable of and admired her tenacity and courage although he would never admit that. He raised a brow though when she spoke of showing compassion and tilted his head to the side as he regarded her for a few moments as though he were trying to figure out what her angle could be. A smirk came to his face though as he heard her next words. <strong>"Maybe that's what I want them to think."</strong><br><br>He said, leaving it to Claire to figure out whether he was being serious or just playing around with her and walked in through the partially open door to close it behind him as he leaned back up against it. <strong>"Really Claire, did you think I would simply be a good boy? Maybe I want to be a bad boy...<em>your</em> bad boy."</strong> He remarked, dark eyes smoldering as he gazed over at her, leaning closer to the cheerleader, their lips only inches away from each other and he licked his lips. Claire was fairly attractive but was he really into her?<br><br>Or was it just a game he was playing to pass the time? Sylar did enjoy playing games with the minds of other people. In fact he couldn't get enough of it.

				A soft, amused smile fleeted over her lips as she shook her head.&nbsp; Her eyes still playing over his features, she didn't move an inch.&nbsp; Her first instinct was to back away but the fleeting thought that they might be more alike than she realized tugged at her mind.&nbsp; <br><br>Slowly, a mischevious smirk blossomed on her lips as she looked up at him, humor in her voice.&nbsp; "You suck at lying, Sylar..."&nbsp; Shaking her head once more, she turned away, hiding the sudden blush that colored her cheeks.

				Sylar was poised on the brink of possibly kissing Claire when a mischievous smirk came to the cheerleader's lips and she spoke. His smoldering look was replaced by a playful one and he pulled back a bit as Claire shook her head and turned away to hide a blush that she hadn't quite been able to keep away from Sylar. Lips twitched as he regarded her for a moment and then he let his eyes flicker around the place Claire had shacked herself up in, it wasn't very impressive at all and not something he would have chosen to spend his time in, especially in France. <strong>"Why are you following me?"</strong> He suddenly asked, his tone cool but not angry, it was as though he were merely curious.<br><br>Curious as to what possible reason Claire could have to keep tabs on him. Since they always happened to run into eachother nearly all the time. First when she had been a regular cheerleader, then when he'd tried to stalk her for her power, then when he had actually found her and taken her power and now this. He had no further use for Claire and yet she was still in his general vicinity, there had to be some reason. <strong>"Did you need something from me?"</strong> Sylar asked, glancing over in her direction as he picked up a piece of mail addressed to Claire from a random person that was not a bill but more a personal letter...perhaps something the cheerleader didn't want him or anyone else to read.<br><br>In which case it would make it all the more interesting to him. Sylar let his fingers slide across the envelope as he slowly started to open the letter, hoping to reveal the contents of what was inside before Claire could stop him.

				Snatching the letter out of his grasp, she pushed him up against the door, glaring at him.&nbsp; Almost growling at him through clenched teeth, she managed,&nbsp; "I <em>like</em> Paris...I came here to save Sandra and Lyle from <em>you</em>.&nbsp; What the hell did you do to me?"<br><br>Her face was mere centimeters from his once more, her body even closer, as she fought to regain a composure so quickly lost.&nbsp; Her fight was so patent that she was trembling with the effort, her splayed hand still against his chest.<br><br>Why did he seem to know where she would be before she knew it herself?

				A corner of Sylar's lips twitched as he heard Claire speak. "Sandra? She's not 'Mom' anymore? My my, what happened? A little fallout amongst family members?" He inquired with an arched brow, amused at the fact that the cheerleader appeared to be getting rather angry at him. Of course when Claire asked what he had done to her, Sylar chuckled, wondering why she was asking such a silly question that she knew the answer to. "What did I do to you? Why whatever do you mean, Claire? Is something different about you, now?" He asked, a bit curious despite himself but tried not to show it. Because if something <em>was</em> different he wanted to know what it was.<br><br>To see if he could access that particular 'difference' as well. "You never answered my question..." Sylar murmured, leaning closer to Claire once more, if only to see how she would react to such an action. He loved playing this sort of game, to see where it led, that was half the fun.

				He was prodding at her, even now.&nbsp; Her pulse quickened as he leaned toward her, her resolve slipping away.&nbsp; "Shut up..." she whispered, desperately.&nbsp; <em>Please shut up...I can't think...</em>&nbsp; Her eyes darted over his face searching...but for what.<br><br>She ran, he followed.&nbsp; He hunted, she followed...it was as if they were lodestones for one another.&nbsp; She wouldn't let herself flinch.&nbsp; Not this time.&nbsp; He was playing chicken...and she was determined to win, or suffer the consequences.<br><br>"You can't be everywhere at once...you can't..."&nbsp; she murmured, as if trying to convince herself.&nbsp; Pushing up on her toes, she kissed him suddenly, an impulsive action.&nbsp; Arms wrapping around his waist, she held him fast.<br><br><em>If he was here with her, he couldn't be killing...</em>

				Sylar chuckled as he watched Claire get all jittery and wondered what on earth she was thinking about. Could she possibly be just getting nervous from being in such an intimate position? Surely she knew he didn't mean anything he said. She couldn't be that naive. Everyone knew he liked to play with other people's emotions.<br><br>It was a well known fact and he was never really serious unless someone pissed him off but Claire hadn't done that. At least not yet. "Why should I? Am I getting to you that much? My my. I didn't know you had such weak resolve." He said with a chuckle and raised a brow when Claire murmured he couldn't be everywhere at once.<br><br>What was she thinking about? His eyes widened though when she suddenly pushed herself up on her toes and kissed him. Okay, he hadn't expected that. His lips met hers for a split second and then he stepped back, raising a brow in the cheerleader's direction. "Interesting. Did you think that would get to me?" Such a thought was naive.<br><br>"Oh. Have you harbored a crush on me since the moment I laid eyes on you, Claire?" Sylar asked, interested despite himself because if that was the case he could make good use of her. Have her on his side as a weapon against his enemies as he collected powers and in return he would promise Claire she could always be with him.<br><br>Until someone managed to kill her of course. Or capture her. Then she would have served her purpose and he could abandon her since he wasn't in this for the long run with a partner. He only wanted Claire with him for a short period of time. No longer than that. After all, he worked best alone.

				Pressing her lips together she glared at him, her arms wrapping around her waist as a sort of shield.&nbsp; Who was she kidding?&nbsp; He'd been mysterious at first but now?&nbsp; Now she couldn't get him out of her mind and her dreams.&nbsp; Since he'd cracked her head open, found what made her tick.<br><br>Grating out a frustrated growl, she turned from him,&nbsp; "People aren't clocks or watches.&nbsp; They aren't static. "&nbsp; She couldn't look at him and lose herself...he was so clever.&nbsp; Her body stiffened at his comment, but she didn't answer...couldn't.&nbsp; Couldn't explain how it felt for him to know how she would react since that day.<br><br>"Does it get you off to fuck with people's heads?"&nbsp; Again the tart rejoinders, her only defense.

				Sylar had no idea what was going through Claire's mind but he was definitely interested. He tilted his head to the side as he regarded the cheerleader, somewhat amused when she let out a frustrated growl in his direction. "Of course they aren't. They are much more intricate than clocks and watches. It is partially why I am interested in them."<br><br>He said, agreeing with her on this particular matter. Why wouldn't he? She made a good point. He chuckled lightly when Claire chose not to respond to his question of her having a crush on him. It was actually surprising, he would have expected Claire to instantly shoot back that she was not and had never been attracted to him in the first place.<br><br>But she hadn't. That drew his attention more than anything else would. Sylar laughed. "Yes." He said, bluntly responding to her question which probably had been blurted out to draw attention away from what she was really nervous about and suddenly Sylar leaned down to capture her lips in a second kiss. Only this time it was him doing the initiation.<br><br>Merely to see how Claire would respond although he had to admit her lips did taste rather nice.

				Clenched fingers loosened at the sudden kiss, her arms falling to her sides as she relaxed.&nbsp; It took all her will to pull away from his warmth, his lips, but she finally managed to, for a mere moment, before giving in once more.&nbsp; Whimpering softly, she stepped closer to him, a hand slipping to his waist before she managed to push away fully.<br><br>"No." she managed, teeth clenched as she looked away from him.&nbsp; There was no denying that she would have continued the kiss, had she not censored herself, indeed maybe even beyond that.&nbsp; She was falling hook, line, and sinker for his tricks...that had to be the cause for the lapse in reason.&nbsp; Had to be the only reason for her weakness.&nbsp; But still she was afraid she'd not be able to maintain the illusion.
