Tempest thought the conversation seemed to be flowing smoothly, unfortunately, the gatherings and suspicious behavior from before finally captured the guards interest. [i]"Hey, break it up. All of you. Now."[/i] yelled one of them, the other men spacing out to form a more complete 360 degree set of security. The guard that spoke was holding his left hand over something concealed in a pouch. His concealed mouth that spoke those exact words were so fast and sudden that Tempest had no time to decipher them. [i]"Disperse immediately."[/i] the man said again. All hope in translating the sentence dissipated at the colossal size of just two words. Ocean blue eyes stared blankly at the guard unable to react accordingly and then to Josh who seemed slightly agitated. Him and the aggressive brute exchanged words that only seemed to heighten the tension, which only aggravated the guard further. During the midst of their banter a particular word stood out; Stone. [b]"Stone?"[/b] Her finger pointed to Josh who stood beside her and the monster threatening the prisoners. She wondered if that was his name or ability but decided to call him that from now on regardless--besides, it was rather easy to remember too. 

The observation/question came at a bad time and Tempest tilted her head at the odd shaped item tossed over the side. Before it could reach the ground Stone reacted with such agility that no one seemed to expect. Mouths dropped along with gasps at his staggering kick almost passing in slow motion. A crash sounded as Tempest watched the athletic man collide onto the table top but followed his eye-line toward the humorous display above. An amused smile crossed her lips at the sight of tiny black like bullets shattering into their armored bodies. This pleased grin vanished just as fast when a small gun fired at her savior. 

A hand shot upward toward the dart in order to reflect it with her power but nothing happened and as a result she looked like a bizarrely dressed traffic patrol halting an invisible car. How utterly embarrassing. Tempest had a love hate relationship with her abilities since discovering them not too long ago. They usually worked when she needed them the most but noticed since having this electronic bracelet latched onto her that not even accidental force pushes released. It was a bitter pill to swallow, being completely defenseless, and useless when someone needed her help. This would not do.

Her hands reached toward the slumber induced Stone but a multitude of guards erupted through the doors and one easily pushed Tempest’s petite body backward. Feet became tangled in the lengthy pant legs and while trying to catch herself from the force she landed on her backside instead. Worry and anger surged through every inch of the little warrior and she rose watching them carry Stone’s body away. Doors slammed closed reminding her that there was no escape and nothing she could do, and the atmosphere began to settle down. The man from before who she introduced herself to soon approached her side. It took a while for her to pry distressed hues away from the door but she managed to eventually.

[i]"Do you understand?"[/i] he asked. Trying to see if she knew what he meant.

[b]"Stone is end.”[/b] She replied woefully with pain stricken eyes and a heavy heart…she felt absolutely terrible. Her body went to step forward but there was no access to the other side, and she could see the man’s arms rising to stop her. His expression seemed concerned yet hopeful along with his words and she sighed in defeat. Intense cobalt eyes stared up to the new acquaintance before she spoke. [b]"Revenge."[/b] She knew this word well and finally had a less selfish and decent enough reason to extract some.
