"I didn't— I didn't really do anything," Claire replied quickly, voice hushed and immediately tinged with guilt. Although she wanted nothing more than to be completely honest with those who had been so kind to her since her arrival, such as Coraline, Mary Jane, and Thalia, there were times when Claire felt that exposing them to the truth was only putting them in the way of more danger. It made her feel remarkably like her father, thinking along those lines, but maybe he had a point. No, Claire was sure that he did, because for all that their world had crumbled apart over the last year, Noah Bennet had still kept his family safe for so long.

Besides, she reasoned to herself, it wasn't entirely a lie. Claire herself hadn't actively done anything to make her body fix itself, and had she a choice in the matter, she would choose to suffer the same amount of pain that everyone else did. Either way, she quickly got to her feet and looped an arm around Coraline's waist, casting harried glances over her shoulder.

"And Sylar is— he's a really bad guy, and he wants to hurt me. He'll probably hurt you, too, if he gets the chance, so we need to run, and if he catches up to us, I need you to just run for yourself, okay?" Claire breathed, taking the both of them in the direction Coraline suggested. "Anyway, you were saying there are bad things the other way? What things?"
