What an exciting chapter! I'm liking this Henry character. I especially liked how he called her on the petty way that she got back at those teenagers who'd been teasing her. I've always thought that Alex was the type to misuse her powers against those who are unable to defend themselves against them, if she didn't fear the consequences of a trace, and it seems I was right. At least she had the decency to feel a bit of shame for it when Henry made her think about what effect her actions might have on others.

Now, if only she'd thought about that a little more carefully before she set out on this mad quest. Or before running off into the desert, again, without having a clue of how to survive. She'd better be prepared to hand that map fragment over to Henry when he finally catches her, because the man is going to be very, very put out.
