[ This time was different. The panic of losing his telekinesis stopped him from doing more than working out that Jesse was responsible; beyond that his intuition fractured with his self-control, and he turned his eyes up to Peter. The fear didn't subside. When he did look back at Jesse, he raised his hand toward him again, but still nothing happened. Nothing.
He rubbed at his temple. Everything was going wrong. And they had to get out of here--they had to go otherwise things would get worse. He couldn't just leave things as they were, though.
Much as he didn't want to touch Jesse again, for fear that he'd get a second introduction to whatever the other man had done, there was no choice. He couldn't leave him with his memories of this. Not all of them, at least. So he reached out with his telepathy, reached into Jesse's fried brain, shifting and changing where he needed to so that it was only Sylar who had attacked him, so that he wouldn't remember Peter's involvement. Yes, Jesse would remember someone was here--but it wouldn't be Peter.
When he stepped back, he pulled Peter into the shadows with him without a word, took him back home to their apartment; back to where they were safe. ]
