"It would be too much to say I found it out by myself..." Elizabeth comments. Because of her outfit, she takes even more place than everyone else - it doesn't help with the already crowded place at all.
"I'm sorry if I interrupted you, but you should know. The one who told me about this is no one else but..."

"Yes. It is me." A door opens and someone enters. Someone you know well.

"Erick-san!"
"Laura!"
"How dramatic, wouldn't you say?" Comments by Akiho, Elizabeth and Akira respectively.

It is indeed Laura Ericks. She walks into the changing room (somehow finding place for herself), a serious expression on her face.
"Don't worry. I will not tell anyone about this. And if anyone has issues with you knowing, you should tell them... to bring that to me. And I told Elizabeth about the amplifiers, because..." She takes a breath.
"I think everyone has a right to know. Being a Shifter is a wonderful thing for many of you - you do not deserve to have this power taken away. Even if it is scary and dangerous at times... they wouldn't want that, would they?"

Who are 'they' that Laura is talking about?
