He watched as his boyfriend's gaze shifted from his hands to his face, watching as what little hope for this mission they were given slipped between his grasp. He could feel his eyes wavering, his mouth felt dry and Demi had no idea how to respond. Every word got caught within his throat as he searched for anything to say to him. Zeke's hand graced his skin as he felt his soft embrace trace an arc across his cheek. The warmth spread across his face as he looked on with a muddled brain incapable of saying how he felt. All he could do was smile, and reply [color=6666FF]”Then let's make sure we all survive this encounter alright? Then this break you and I, we'll go see your mum. I think we could use a little holiday of our own.”[/color] His heart broke to think it, but the quest was falling apart. He wasn't sure if Nancy would continue, and honestly how could anyone in their right mind force her to? This place was worse than Tartarus as far as they were concerned and at least here she could escape. Find her way back towards Camp, but not alone. Demi-God's had a rule of three, Demi never got why but it worked. Cassian was lost in this Maze of Madness, Nancy was on the brink of a homicidal episode, and Zeke's heart wouldn't be in it if he spent all his time worrying about his sister. [Color=6666FF]”I hate to say it but…if you need an out Nancy, you're more than welcome to leave. Take Zeke with you, and either I or someone else can accompany you both back to camp. We need Alexios here to defeat the Titan but we have to remain in groups of three for safety.”[/color] The thought of being separated once more from Zeke hurt him, but he knew it was the right thing to do. Having a child of the Big Three would only put a target on their back as they made their way to camp, and Alexios wasn't guaranteed to stay on mission if he left to help Nancy. He understood her want to demolish the place, to burn it all asunder and make sure no other is entrapped the way she is mentally and the way she was physically. But even then, he had to offer her the choice to leave. Cassian rolled his eyes playfully as Anya shot him once more, gripping his chestplate and groaning as if he'd been shot. [Color=CC00CC]”Mercy, I beg you.”[/color] He joked before sticking his tongue out at her. [Color=CC00CC]”Alright, let's go find Aron. See what sort of mess he got himself into in here.”[/color] They made their way through corridors and hurdles, searching for a sign of her twin before they finally found him held up behind a half wall. A group of other players attempted to lure him out so they could get the score. Cassian ran, crouched down to avoid the others before finally bursting into a small sprint and sliding next to Aron. His eyes looking up and over as is to signify what was lurking behind this partition. [Color=CC00CC]”Seem to have gotten yourself in quite the pickle, haven't you? Lucky for you I'm a great shot, unlucky for you Anya snuck up behind me and tagged me out. What. A. Predicament. “[/color] Cassian could help out, shooting the others, but it wouldn't be in the spirit of the game.
