Chapter 115

“Schu, really, can we not talk about this now,” Nathan said.

“Ya need to understand the truth,” Schuester insisted. “All changelings kill their family in the end. I had to learn that the hard way with Avery and her brother. I’m just a man, I have no abilities or special senses, and even I can tell that Jim is changin’. He is not the same boy he was when I first met ya.”

“Of course he isn’t,” Nathan nearly growled, too frazzled to handle this now. “Neither am I. He’s not Awakened, Schu, and he’s nowhere near it. He barely has control over his powers.”

“And that reassures ya?”

“Hey!” Jim called, practically jogging over to them.

“What is it?” Nathan asked, glad for the interruption.

“I think I thought of something else we might try,” Jim said. He reached into his pocket and pulled out Sasha’s cell phone, something he had been careful to claim from Sasha’s leather jacket before they left the pieces of it back in the alleyways of Chicago.
