Fuck me. Something crashed down out the sky, shaking the ground from the force of it. She stumbled a little, then turned around and saw people she didn't recognize at all on top of the most hideous thing she's ever seen. They called out Britney and Lila. Oh, so they had a mission. Ain't got shit to do with her. They can have her as long as it meant she could go home tonight. She didn't say that out loud though. She didn't have any friends in the group, nor anyone she trusted. She can't let them know that she'd sell any of them up a river for her life. If people know you'll stab them in the back, then they'll jump at the right opportunity to do the same to you. There were few in the group that wouldn't, but most of them would. She'll like to keep the few good people somewhat in her good graces. [color=DE198A]"Have fun with whatever the fuck that is,"[/color] she said, backing away further into the trees She meant it when she said she didn't fight anymore. They'll have to take that for whatever they think it means. She looked out into the forest towards the street. She can still get the fuck out of here. That just means running. No sooner she had that thought an ice barrier shot up to cover the easiest to get to exits. Double fuck me. Her only way out now was to go into the woods behind Kari's house and hope she can get to the other side before the sun goes down. And also hope she doesn't get lost. Trek through the forest or hunker down and wait it out? She walked a further into the forest, finding a tree with a low enough branch for her to get leverage to climb. She care to see the battle, just be far enough away from it, because it seems she waiting this bitch out. She climbed about ten feet and sat on a thick branch that didn't creak under her weight. She sat with her back to the trunk, the branch between her legs and leaned back. She'd just got comfortable when the sky opened up and poured rain. Motherfucker! She got some coverage from the rain from the tree. She didn't want to chance climbing back down and slipping. She got the sense this wasn't natural. Given there hadn't been a cloud in the sky today. She put That Melody on and got everyone's thoughts within Kari's property and the forest beyond it. The distance on this thing was too fucking far for her. The sounds of the fight amplified in her ears, everyone's thoughts rushed through, and instantly gave her a headache. It's overstimulating, but she always knew that there was a chance this would happen. That she would be caught up somewhere there's a fight and she might need to use her headphones. She didn't need to use them now, but she who knew when she'd get the chance to practice her control in such a chaotic setting again? She got a jumbled of everyone's thoughts. Something about a fight at the festival causing this, that kid being a product of Britney's fuckery, general thoughts of trying to survive this, along with thoughts of absolute violence coming from 8th Street. It's a fucking mess and too much for her to parse through. She reached up to take her headphones off when a far off thought caught her attention. Fucking Greyson. Her hate for him helped her focus. He was trying to find a way around the ice barrier. Finally, he's good for something. If he can find a way in, then she'll have her way out. She tuned everyone else out to focus on him. He had his channeler on. His thoughts reached for Britney. The concern of this thoughts, his desperation to find her. Oh fuck. He's in love with her. Yikes. A terrible man would have terrible tastes in women. She'd been told that any attempt for a telepaths and empaths to connect to her thoughts or emotions wouldn't yield anything useful for them. He probably won't even notice she's here, since his thoughts are focused elsewhere. Good. Keep ignoring her. She's learning a lot about him.
