He could have just let Gray run. He thought about it. God knew there were stranger things in the Nexus all the time than a blood spattered guy.
But it's Gray. It's Jackson's brother who didn't know any better and Jackson...he'd want to know. If he made it, he's want to know his brother.
He's not dead. Jono reaches out for Gray's mind, trying to pull him back. I ain't the only person like me in me world. Lots of people got powers back there. One of 'em, one of me former students, 'e's a healer. Damned fine one, too, now 'at 'e's got 'is head outta 'is arse. He took a breath and stood, looking toward Gray. The direction he'd taken off in. But they can't contact me 'ere, neither. Sent me own PINpoint with Jackson when I sent 'im off. So I gotta be back in me own world an' I don' got a place where I sent Jackson.
Come home with me, Gray, he said, finally admitting he'd known the young man's name all along. I can explain more. But I need to be where they can let me know.
