After the military incident, Sigma kept a low profile. Though she does not seem like the type to seclude herself, Sigma's go to is solitary. Usually when she gets bored of that, she spends time bothering others. Now was that time as she teleported to different parts of HQ and noticed that two out of her three favorite people to bug were missing. She knew that Omega usually announced his departure and arrival. And Sigma knew that he only did this so he could just announce his grand arrival back to wherever he left. The thought of it caused Sigma roll her eyes. 

"Omega this is Sigma. Over." Sigma said through a closed channel over comms. She waited about a minute as she leaned up against his room door. "Omega? Omega! Mike answer your fucking comlink!" Sigma cursed as she was irritated in his unresponsiveness. "Drifterrrr, this is Sigma. Over." Sigma didn't have bone in her body that was mean enough to yell at Jessica. She thought of Jess as innocent. "Shiver, this is Sigma. Where the hell are our flyers? They're not here. Are you tracking where they are?" Sigma asked sternly. She was hoping the answer was yes, or Shiver might have some explaining to do. 

Having some initiative, Sigma stopped by Omega's office. Stop by as in teleporting in without any kind of warning. She saw that Omega and Shiver were gone, but the secretary was there a bit startled by her sudden arrival. Sigma didn't look at the girl before she scanned the room and only noticed that Omega's suit was still in his office. [i]Weird. I knew something suspicious happened.[/i] When Sigma's eyes met with Liz's, Liz diverted her eyes down.

[color=a187be]"Do you need any assistance? Both team leaders are ou-"[/color] Liiz was interrupted.

"I know. I usually know where everyone is, but today I lost track of two of them. Now I don't know enough about Jess to think of where she may have gone. She pretty much comes and goes as she pleases as far as I know, but Omega is arrogant enough to always make sure people know when he's gone so he announce his arrival to his teammates that may desperately need his help." She mocked the last bit. "So where did my big bro go? And yes, I mean Omega." Sigma asked with her hands on her hips. Liz bit her bottom lip before spilling everything that went down in the office as best as she could. She then pointed to the picture on the desk. "Hmm... So now he knows why his life has been so shitty. He must have left to go break some stuff..." Sigma nodded her head as she seemed satisfied with the information she was given. "Thanks for the heads up. Bye!" Sigma said before vanishing and appearing on a rooftop by the docks of San Francisco. Sigma pulled out a disposable flip phone and made a call. "Omega is in a pretty sorry state right now. It would be best to contact him. I'm sure he can be easily swayed... No I don't know where he is. I found this out while looking for him. I'll text you the detail, and then I'm getting rid of this prehistoric phone. Oh and by the way, their also missing Drifter. She's formidable as hell. Pretty innocent, but her powers have been honed to point where I feel she makes a difference. I'll update you on anything else later today." Sigma said before removing the phone's battery and snapping the phone in two and teleporting right onto a dock where she dropped the broken device. She sighed as she teleported onto her comfortable bed. For the time being, she'd watch tv while wondering what would be going on.

Within a crater in the Sahara Desert sand, the man lies on his back. For the first time, in a very long time, he doesn't know what to do. He feels as lost as he was when he was removed from the orphanage, when he discovered his powers that he never knew he always had. He had used every ounce of his energy to let out the anger held. When he could not use his telekinesis anymore, he had beat his fists into the sand. His knuckles bled, but he could heal, so he did this repeatedly like child having a tantrum until he lacked the energy to even do that. As he looks up at the sky that is slowly darkening with brown watered eyes, he attempts to think on his next move, but all he can see his life unfolding. The life that was stripped from him, and the tattered life he was given in return. He knew that as powerful that he would ever become, he would never have complete control over his life or be able to change the past. The absence of his biological family had already been filled again and again. First by humans who feared his powers, and then by an organization that meant to take advantage of these powers. He could admit that there was some good to his life. It might have felt better to know that everything he was told today, never happened. In some twisted way, he had accepted what he believed to be his upbringing. That it was meant to just be as bad as it was. That there was no choice in the matter, it just... happened. Now knowing that all of this was caused by the acts of one person, a person he can't even hope to declare vengeance on for dropping him into a hellish pit, he feels destroyed. He wished he could bring back the woman's life, so he could strip it from her like she did to him, but he had no resource regarding that. 

He thought about Hades, but what did he have to give in return? He thought about promising to return the life he had brought back, but why would Hades trust him? He thought about returning to the HQ while pretending everything was fine, but the sting of the word brother coming from Tia and cousin coming from Shiver would just remind him. No, their presence would remind him. Then what? He did not yet know the answer to that question. Would he say something rude to give himself distance or would he just pack up and leave so he could forget? But he wouldn't forget. He'd just be upset for the rest of his time on this world. How could he be so strong, but be defeated by a revelation that only took seconds to be revealed. He'd lie here until he figured out what he would do. It would take long, but it needed to be done. 

As he lay there, his phone buzzed. Someone was trying to call him, but as he worried about what was to come, he ignored it and continued to drift deep into his thoughts.
