It was hard to keep from being a bit paranoid, even when she was not in immediate danger. The atmosphere just lent itself to that sort of feeling. It didn't help that knowing the Ascendancy was looking for Sylvia made her worried for her own safety too. [color=aba000]"I'm traveling,"[/color] Alicia replied when asked about what she was currently doing, before tensing up as Serenity suggested that she meet them at the base. Did Serenity not know? Surely her education when she had joined Beacon had covered that, right? Well, no matter. She could do that herself. [color=aba000]"Things went bad while we were gone. The Ascendancy has moved into town because of the monster attacks while we were gone. They're going after Sylvia, and I'm not sure what they'll do to you even if they knew your story."[/color] She held back a sigh, instead replaced by exertion as she crossed the street. [color=aba000]"I'm meeting with Sylvia and Sally to plan our next move. You can come too if you want, otherwise sit tight and try to not draw too much attention to yourself for now until we can get this all worked out."[/color] It wasn't the best plan, in all likelihood, but it was the only one she had at the moment. Hopefully Serenity would be alright with that. [@Crusader Lord]
