More seeing in the dark

But apparently, they had been waiting, too. All of a sudden, the world around me shifted, like a screen had fallen over my eyes and darkened my sight. Melanie, I realized as I saw her in the periphery, using her power to block the lights. She wasn’t making darkness, per se, because the lights were still there, still glowing where they had been positioned.

I knew, because I could see them. Whatever she was doing, it didn’t stop my Clairvoyance—or rather, it didn’t stop all of it. Even cut off from visible light, I could clearly see everything around me with just a slight shift in perspective—and as I did, I saw what they were trying to do.
