"...If you could, I need to go talk to my father and let him know what has happened and what you are going to attempt, so that at least somewhat he is prepared in case you are unable to wake her up," Flynn said, looking over at the others as he backed away somewhat. It was true, he did need to alert his father to what is going on.

"Well, fortunately rousing people from comas is easier with mutations. Previously, you simply just tried to find the right drug to wake them up.... but now, I believe if you can find someone with telepathy they should be able to wake the Queen," October said with a smile. "Of course, I also believe my wife could astrally project and wake her, perhaps guided with dear Annie's intuition."

"Just see what you can do, I'll be back," he responded, before leaving the room.

"How about you both settle down!" Howard snapped at both of them, looking between the two. "Now, Guin, you have a fair point, who is to say what reality is which, or which one is the original. However, none of that matters now! What does matter is that it is clear that someone messed with reality, and if they did it once, they can do it again rather easily. So no matter which way you choose, the one responsible for all of this needs to be stopped, so that they don't mess with reality any more than before! If you saw people you recognized as good people, those are ones you can trust, unless they are close to the royal family really, as Guin does not want to tell Pietro since he might tell Wanda, even though he can potentially be trusted his twin not so much. So go back to the palace and find your friends."

---

Alex looked over at Max, "Why would you break me out just to answer a few questions? As for what I said, it's the truth, and honestly you probably shouldn't have broken me out at all, especially if you plan to be lying about anything to the royal family, since let me tell you, they know when you are lying. The Queen was the only one of the family with powers that weren't exactly violent. She can create holographic projections and can see into the past, honestly she probably can know more about you then you yourself do. Still though, not sure you would want to be where you are currently standing, people like you aren't exactly welcome around here," he said, and he was looking at someone behind Max. Suddenly, Max would feel and be able to see out of the corner of his eye a sword blade pressed up against his neck, and he would be able to see that it had a slightly black aura of power around it.

"Don't move, otherwise I'll slice your throat open," a female voice said, right behind Max now.

Alex hesitated for a moment, almost as if he wasn't going to do anything, before he let out a sigh, "Klara, calm down alright, he's fine, he's the one who kind of broke me out of the palace dungeons..."

"You know perfectly well what people like him can do Alex."

"I know that, but just put the sword down, and you're one to talk, you technically have powers too..."

"My "powers" stem from magic and you know it," she snapped back, lowering her sword finally. If Max turned to look at her, he'd see a young girl who looked about as old as Max was, maybe even a bit younger, wearing a hoodie, jeans and what looked like combat boots, but she had a sword sheath across her back as she twirled her sword around and sheathed it again. "You have maybe five minutes to explain yourself otherwise you'll be dead before you can use your powers."

"No offense Casper, but you are certainly not the first person I would choose to haunt... Not to mention I am not dead yet! I also have a name you know, so don't just call me Ginger! Especially considering saying that could mean generally either me or my psychopathic serial killer sister who might I remind you tried to kill you at one point."

"Damn it.... Where the hell is my sister?!?!?! Où est ma sœur?!" Gambit asked instantly, he stopped what he was doing and wasn't fighting against Bobbi at all. Rogue seemed a bit dazed by Ana's powers, however she shook her head and the cloud of confusion disappeared.

"Guessing you mean the one who got hurt, she's in the next room over. Think I managed to bandage her injuries correctly..." Jack commented, coming into the doorway now. Gambit shoved Jack out of his way, breaking off at a run towards where Marygold was. After telling him that, Jack went back to the other room, this time going to go check on Lexi. When he entered the room he saw that Lexi had fallen asleep where she had been sitting, and he chuckled slightly at that.

Rogue looked over at Casper, figuring that there had to be some explanation for what happened, otherwise Chrysi probably would have killed them all years ago. "Alright, spill, what happened?"

"Don't try lying to Rogue Casper, honestly she can smell a liar a mile away if you ask me."

Lance got outside of the jet, having been ahead of everyone else (and invisible) and he stopped suddenly when he saw the Hulk. That was definitely not what he had expected to see. It wasn't like he'd ever encountered the Hulk before, but, there was something familiar about the Hulk, almost like he was used to being around him, but he had no idea why it was like that. He turned visible again, ignoring Runa really about not going up to him. "...Dad?"

Wolverine rolled his eyes slightly at the group, at the moment he felt like he was surrounded by idiots considering the people he was around, "For reference in case anyone else who remembers reality doesn't know who Diggby is, she's with the X-Men currently, and tends to pick fights there too from what I know," he said with a slight shrug before walking off the plane as well.

The Hulk let out a gigantic roar, slamming his fists into the ground in anger. The green beast's eyes darted around, taking in everything suspiciously and he started to charge, about to punch Maria when he suddenly stopped. By some stroke of luck, the plan to just lower their arms worked. The Hulk started to stumble backwards, the green color of his skin fading away as within moments, a puny scientist that was clothed only in a pair of pants left in a heap on the ground in the Australian sun. "....Hey buddy... I guess you have questions?" he asked, his voice sounding parched.

"Oh, I guess you can say that..." Lance commented, nodding his head slightly at that. He personally wasn't too sure about whether or not he could actually trust the people that were supposedly "helping" them or saying that they were on their side.

"...There might be a way for me to transport us outside of the room... Since I doubt we'd be able to go directly into the room..." Valda said slowly, thinking about everything that they could possibly do to deal with this situation. They were running out of options, so this hopefully was their best shot at not dying hopefully due to vampires. Since Luna's Room wasn't exactly the best place to be in this sort of situation after all.

"I would recommend you all don't really move, alright?" Valda said with a slight nod, as she felt her magic at work, and the power flow through her hands. After a moment, she Transported everyone in the room to being right outside of the Queen's Room. "Come on," she said, nodding at her sister as she opened the door and grabbed Ahote by the arm, dragging him inside of the room now.

"The witch is the woman known as Fleur, she's caused me some problems in the past, and she is not to be underestimated, no matter what, she's a powerful adversary, especially for a Midgardian. That stone in her hands is a bad idea flat out... I knew I shouldn't have let her keep it... I should have done something to get it away from her..." he said, feeling a bit guilty and shaking his head. This did feel like it had been his fault, if he hadn't let Fleur keep the stone, then maybe she wouldn't be somewhat of a threat and they'd only have to deal with Loki.

"These stones Myth... They shouldn't be messed with at all, and if multiple stones are appearing, I fear for what might happen... I don't want you to get hurt, but I also know better then to try and tell you no... So we'll see about catching up with Halley then... Guessing dad doesn't know much about what's going on?" he said, adding that last part with a slight laugh to try and lighten the mood even a little bit. He started heading out the door, "To the Bifrost then... My mother can easily be trusted with Halden Myth, don't worry..."

Sylvi the Bard

Location: The Palace Courtyard
Skills: Sword Fighting

"...I'm no princess," Sylvi said, her voice sounding a bit cold and distant as she said the words. It was true, after all, she had run away from home in order to not have to be stuck ruling a country when she was older. That was the thing, she had always been a bit of a free spirit, having a love of traveling, she hated being stuck in that castle. Now she had freedom to do whatever she wanted, be whoever she wanted, and now here was some creature that was essentially throwing her old life in her face. "I never will be..." she added, staring at the vampire as Tate managed to get him away from her.

Now, Sylvi never generally was considered one to have a temper, but this was definitely the last straw, and she whirled around to face Amarantha, "How about you go do something useful for once instead of just deciding to be threatening and all trying to intimidate that thing! Honestly not wonder bad things happen to the royal family if you are the one in charge of security! Did you honestly think that the creature would just surrender or something? He attacked the prince when there were several people around, so do your job and get the prince out of here!" she snapped, venting all of her anger from the vampire towards Amarantha.

Then she heard the screams.

Those things were biting people, and that certainly was not a good thing, and she saw another one heading for Myrus, "Like I said, get him out of here," she said again, before she charged at the creature, slicing at him with her rapier. Her first attack didn't seem to do all too much to him, but her next sword swing severed his spinal cord. With how fast these things were healing, she doubted it would be down for long. However she hoped that Amarantha would have some common sense to go get Myrus out of the area!

"I'm doing alright," Mary said, giving Theresa a bit of a smile as she asked a few other questions regarding their little mission outside of the camp and the newbies. She made sort of a face when she asked about their little adventure with Zeke. "Honestly, he was annoying. Especially given the fact that Kirsten had said that technically he was in charge and didn't really give too many suggestions at all that were even remotely useful. So it went as well as to be expected..."

"But yeah, Princess Rainbow Unicorn over there is right," she said, teasing Leda a bit now with a slight laugh. "Two kids who both belong to Hades of all people... Two little kids mind you, which is kind of crazy honestly. So that'll definitely make things more then a little bit interesting around here. Two kids, from the big 3, and from the same godly parent at that, what are the chances of both of them being in the exact same place at the exact same time like that?"

Flynn looked over at the others a bit, wondering why they were going on about how a time machine needs to be made, as if something like that was going to be the easiest thing ever to build. All of that stuff went right over his head, but it did not sound that simple. If it was really so easy to build a time machine, then why hasn't one ever been invented or built or anything like that? Yeah, so to him, them just going "Let's all build a time machine and hope it works!" was not the best idea. He was fine with Captain Marvel's idea though, since they might end up stuck with the world they had.

"Well, if you want my opinion on it, we should see about destroying the device... Since no offense to the people here, but I doubt a time machine is super easy to build, so we might need a backup plan in case that doesn't actually work... It is your call Abercrombie, but I'm with Marvel on this one, after all... If the time travel idea fails, we still have to deal with Ultron and the world we've got..." he said, shaking his head slightly, before he turned as the door opened, and of all people in stepped Wanda Maximoff. Holding... Is that a turtle? Why the hell did she have a turtle?

Goose was happy to have Niah scratching his head, and he was purring very loudly. However, when Wanda entered the area, he noticed how the room seemed to tense up, dumb hoomans. They don't ever know when someone is actually being helpful or trustworthy. He thought that maybe he should tell them everything was okay, since it didn't take a rocket scientist to realize that Wanda wasn't there to attack them or anything.

Hopping out of Niah's arms, he raced over to Wanda, and started rubbing up against her legs, purring loudly again. After a moment, he looked up at her and the turtle, tilted his head to the side, "Mrow?" he said, and it was obvious he was giving her a somewhat sympathetic look. Goose could tell that she was able to be trusted, she was a hooman who needed help too.

Penance just rolled her eyes somewhat as she was lead to the attic area along with just about everyone else. Any sense? Was this man not an idiot of sorts? It would seem so, since to her it made absolutely no sense whatsoever to just lock them up when a few of them suggested that the other man couldn't be trusted. Just because he hadn't been in the room did not mean that he couldn't have had a hand in the murder of Lord Bardolf, after all, none of them had really been right next to the man at all when he died. So why was it so far fetched of an idea to say simply that someone else should go along aside from the woman who had been with Swamp for most of the evening so far? It made no sense to her, but it didn't matter. Being locked in the attic was not going to be any fun at all, that much she could tell.

With that, she listened to the others and rolled her eyes at Titian, he certainly was a bit annoying wasn't he? "Might I be so bold to point out that not really any of us were next to the man when he died. So Swamp not being near him does not immediately make him an innocent man. You are right, could be just that he died of old age or something for all we know, however Swamp is as likely to be the murderer as the rest of us are."

She nodded her head slightly at Cobalt, agreeing with him that they should share whatever information that they had. However, she didn't really want to be the first one to share anything, and to her being stuck in a room was a bit boring. Penance partially wanted something interesting to happen, so she thought, why not try and stab someone? She went to pull out her knife, but it would seem that she was a bit of a butterfingers and it dropped to the ground. That certainly wasn't a good thing, not to mention she'd need to try to find some way to hide what it was that she was trying to do. However she wasn't too sure what to really say to get out of it, so she didn't say anything at all, deciding it was likely best to stay quiet.

Sapphire let out a sigh, of course Veil was trying to be as reasonable as possible when it came to the new girl. Why wouldn't she be? The problem for her was that in her mind Glimpse still seemed a bit arrogant, and the fact that she was walking around acting like her family actually meant anything here. That was still dumb in her opinion, but she really truly did not like Glimpse at all and now was sort of wishing she'd just walk out of the building and they'd pretend that they never even met her.

"Alright, look, your name, who you are connected to, mean nothing here, if it wasn't obvious based on what Havok has been saying," she said with an eye roll, looking right at Luna. "And if I may be so bold, you honestly sound like an entitled prick if you think just who your family is will mean anything at all. How do you expect anyone to take you seriously at all? Yeah, I said it, cause that is what I was thinking. Now, as for the whole Hound thing and Shaw, I'm all for seeing if it's true and trying to help out and all."

Jack felt the debris hit him, and he winced slightly from it. It definitely was going to be pretty sore later, because ouch, but at least Max was perfectly okay. "Cool, you got the fire partially down, so the building won't collapse on us really... Hopefully anyway," he said as Max went off to go through the portal back to the Tunnels. Jack went back to normal size now, his body somewhat hurting from the debris that had hit him, and he headed off that way too.

That's when he saw James, having gotten one of the guards out and he'd come racing back inside towards the portal. Jack thought for a moment, before he reached out and grabbed James by the arm, and he went through the portal, dragging James through with him. Once on the other side, he let go of James and took a few steps from the portal and looked at his brother. "...So, you got hit by rubble too? Definitely from the sounds of it you were having an interesting conversation with Ben weren't you?" he said, adding the last part with a bit of a laugh. It was interesting to hear half of a conversation, especially given what exactly Casper tended to say.

Things at Serval Industries were fairly laid back at the moment. Though a bit tense to say the least, after all, it had only been a few weeks since Harrison was murdered, the fact that the new CEO didn't seem to care at all was a bit on the concerning side to say the least. Life just seemed to move on, and no one was doing a damn thin about it, that being in the words of a few other people around Serval Industries.

An few new people have joined the team, which has been made up of a few veterans of the team who truly knew Harrison Snow, while the newbies only really had met him when he had asked them to join the team. He died not too long after the new team had been recruited for it. There might be new people on the team, but most of them weren't new to the superhero business.

They actually ended up with 3 people who were typically associated with the X-Men. Psylocke joined the team, and she was typically an ally of the X-Men, occasionally joining them on the occasional mission whenever possible. Gambit and Rogue joined the team as well, mentioning something about a falling out with Xavier. However, they never really spoke openly about it, and it didn't seem like they would be talking about it any time soon.

The group is in the Serval Industries Headquarters at the moment, and they could end up with a mission at any moment.

Andrew Rossi

---

Location: Serval Industries Engineering Lab

---

Andrew was by himself for the most part in the engineering lab area of the Serval building. Of course, he was currently working on his suit. Since it hadn't been too long since he finally had managed to get it to work, so there were likely some bugs that still needed to be worked out. It wouldn't be a good thing if some time on a mission something went haywire mechanically and went crazy, blowing up or nearly killing him.

He also had a container of cupcakes next to him. This was something he generally did, have some sort of thing of sugar foods by him when he worked, since otherwise he wouldn't exactly eat anything and it helped to keep him awake in case he decided to work through the night. "That's not right..." he muttered to himself, taking a bite of one of the cupcakes as he looked at a holographic projection of his suit.

Demetria Clarke

Location: Her room

Harrison Snow's death had been taking a toll on Sapphire, after all, he'd sort of taken her in and helped her when she was sort of lost still. She thought of him as a father to her in a way, especially since her own family had abandoned her years ago. The fact that no one else seemed to really care about it pissed her off to no end. Why wouldn't they try to find out who had killed him? Why weren't they trying to catch a murderer? These were the questions constantly flying through her mind.

To say the least, her room wasn't exactly the place anyone else would want to be unless they were bundled up from head to toe. She was sitting in there by herself, and the room was completely frozen. The temperature was definitely well below freezing, and she preferred it that way. Not like she really trusted anyone, the closest she had ever come to trusting anyone had been Snow, but now there was no one. Sapphire wanted to be alone, no matter what, if a mission came in, she'd go off on it, but she'd never trust her team mates at all.

Alex was just glaring at Pietro, saying nothing as a few of the guards grabbed him and essentially dragged him away. From what Max could really tell about where he was being taken, there was a basement floor of the Palace that mainly was used for housing criminals, so he was likely being taken to one of those cells.

"Good riddance, maybe father will be kind enough to let me rip his heart out tomorrow..." Pietro muttered, sort of glaring in the direction that Alex had been dragged off to.

"Oh brother, you and I both know that you just ripping someone's heart out isn't much of a spectacle. I imagine he might ask Flynn to, since you know a bonfire looks much better." Wanda responded, and Max would be able to tell that something seemed up with what Wanda was saying. Almost like she wanted Alex's suffering to be long and drawn out, but like before this instant. Pietro had a grudge against him for him stabbing his mother, but Wanda's grudge almost seemed to be from something else.

"Oh, probably... I'm going to go see about locating his friend though if she's still here... I saw her not too long before he came back without her so..." the speedster said, before he took off running, leaving Max standing there with Wanda. After another few moments, Max would be able to tell that Jakobsen was no longer moving, meaning he was likely placed in his cell.

With Flynn and the others, Flynn was staying relatively quiet as they reached the medical area several hallways away from the main room where everyone else was. The room had basically any sort of medical equipment one could dream of, and it was an incredibly large room. He set Miranda down on the closest bed, before turning to look at October. "Help her please if you can..."

"Of course," October said, before she got to work and hummed to herself. She gave Carolina a slight smile as she started to work, but her mind was on Queen Miranda and attempting to save her life.

Flynn fell silent, just watching October. After several minutes, Miranda's breathing would stabilize, however, October was able to tell that something wasn't quite right still. "Oh dear.... Well, she is stable but the poor dear is in limbo. It's a dreadful place, rather cold and it can take some time to come out of it."

"...So, guessing there is nothing we can really do about it..."

---

Back at Stark Tower, Howard let out a bit of a sigh. This certainly wasn't the best sort of confrontation of sorts to be stuck in the middle of. He knew this all too well considering how many arguments he's gotten into with his son in the past. "Maybe we should calm down just a little bit. You are right, there likely aren't too many people we can truly trust with this. However, if she remembers, then chances are that others do too, and you shouldn't be pointing fingers at anyone, she wasn't implying that you shouldn't try and fix the world, she was just saying that whose to tell which world is right and which world is wrong. Now, I'm not going to tell you what to do, or how to try and fix things, but perhaps you should calm down a bit. Both of you..." he said, adding this last point to mainly try and diffuse the situation.

"Mon amie - j'adore les choses sales." Gambit responded to Bobbi with a bit of a smirk. He then sent a barrage of cards slamming into her. Several of the cards hit her with full explosive force, and she went flying backwards and slammed into the ground. That definitely was going to hurt in the morning, since it was hurting a lot right now. Burns were forming on her body, and bruises too from the force of hitting the ground.

Rogue coughed slightly from the force of the punch, but she was back up on her feet rather quickly. "If ya say so, but two can play at that game," she said, before she tilted her head slightly. Suddenly Anastasia would find herself thrown backwards into the wall, her head hitting with a slight crack. It would be throbbing, and a little blood was coming from the back of her head, but she was doing fairly well. "Sounds like someone forgot what my main power is."

---

"We can see about getting you some food or something in a little bit Casper," Jack said, shaking his head slightly at his brother. Though the words that he said involving Mary was a bit concerning. "...That is a really bad thing... And don't worry about Lexi, she's currently distracted last I checked, but I need to go check on her in a few minutes..." he added, before he led the way into a side room in the lower level of the casino, it wasn't too far from the training room where the others were.

There was a couch in the room, and he set Mary down, before he went in search of a first aid kit of some sort. He lucked out and found one with a few supplies in it, at least enough to hopefully stop the bleeding anyway. Jack managed to bandage up Mary's arm, before noticing that she also had an injury on her side, which would explain why she would have gone into a coma so quickly, and he patched her up. However, she had a head injury as well, and now he was wondering how the hell Chrysi had managed to pull that off without them noticing. There wasn't enough supplies in the first aid kit to really bandage it up properly, so he basically just put a wrap around it as that was the best he could do at the moment.

"...Alright, we've got a few different options... One, we go into the training room and tell her brother what sort of happened. Two, we wait a little while to tell him what happened and not interrupt what's going on in the other room yet. Or option three, we do nothing and we might end up dead because of it."

"I'd recommend telling him now, the longer you wait, the worse things will likely be, and honestly, he's right about the likely ending up dead because of it or something... Just saying... And he probably should check on Lexi, it's been around an hour or so since he last checked on her... Oh, and one more thing, I estimate you only have about maybe 5 to 10 minutes until Chrysi wakes up, honestly she does not stay knocked out for long..." Mary pointed out, looking over at Casper and having followed them back into the casino. Sure, she wasn't dead yet, but honestly, she might end up dead or something at this rate.

"You know, funny... Earlier I had said that Chrysi would be the death of me."

Lance sort of stumbled slightly from Maria absorbing his powers, but he said nothing to her. Instead, he looked over at Runa, "...I don't want you fighting or something like that, at least not if you don't have to... Maybe I can calm him down..." he whispered to her, giving her a slight smile. Runa would be able to see his hands were starting to glow with a faint light. Lance gave her a quick kiss, falling silent.

"Did you not just hear me? The best damn telepaths in the world have tried to get into the minds of both Banner and the Hulk, and not one of them have succeeded. Mind control ain't gonna work on him, and using the jet to basically beat up the Hulk ain't going to work either! Am I seriously the only one here who has actually fought this guy? Yes? Great, then things will definitely end well."

This was definitely not the best situation at all, and outside there was another roar as the Hulk created a dent in the wall of the jet from outside of it. He was not in the best mood, and them being in the jet likely was not making things any better. Wolverine glanced over at Diggby and rolled his eyes, "Why don't you pipe down already, honestly, you'd think this was the end of the world! We'll survive this, just gotta be careful bout what we do. Bautista, they are saying the truth, after all, I remember both realities, got an explanation for that? Cause I sure as hell don't."

The light around Lance faded, but only Runa would be able to see Lance disappear from view as well. To her it wouldn't be too surprising, it was mainly just a trick of the light that caused him to turn invisible. However, now he was no longer by her, and had gone outside, down the ramp. He knew what he was doing was stupid, but still, he didn't want to just sit by and do nothing at all.

Wolverine was still looking at Tinley and Novikova, but after a moment, he glanced over to acknowledge what Runa had said about using magic. He had known about that, what he hadn't really known was that Runa knew magic. He stopped though, when he noticed that Lance wasn't by her, "Where'd the laser light show go?" he instantly asked her.

"Myrus is doing alright from what I can tell, think he went down to the courtyard where everyone else is, but that's just me..." she said simply to Luna, nodding her head slightly at her sister. Though what could be going on at the Palace right now? If Ahote said that they needed to get out of the hallway, then where could they go to get away from any danger? The thought then occurred to her of a place that would be better for them to go to at the moment that could potentially be better defense wise if the need arose.

"...Might I make the suggestion of going to my room? Since it sounds like there might be someone here or something based on your tone of voice nearby... Luna and I can easily get you into the room," she said to them quietly, adding the last part as sort of an after thought in case he worried about that or something. Since it was common knowledge that only blood relatives of the Queen could enter the room, but they could lead him into the room.

Bruce Banner

"...The Tesseract?" he said, the worry in his voice was obvious at the moment all things considering. The Tesseract was a powerful object, and before he was born Loki had tried to use the device to invade Midgard, and that in itself was no easy task. He'd heard stories about how powerful of an artifact it was, and the fact that it was stolen well. That definitely was a major concern no matter what. The other part about the time stone being used, well... It made him really wish he had gone toe to toe with that witch to try and take it from her.

"We'll figure out a way to deal with it mother, don't worry... Damn... Now I wish I had managed to get my hands on that stone... Mother, I know who holds the time stone, and she... Well, she definitely would use it for more nefarious means..." he said, shaking his head. "If she's using the stone right now, well, that definitely is worrisome... The Tesseract is dangerous, that I do know, and based on how things in the past have been with it, I have a guess as to who stole it... But a Midgardian witch has the time one, and that's not going to end well..."

Sylvi the Bard

Location: The Palace Courtyard
Skills: Sword Fighting

She didn't think too much about Tate not really acknowledging her words, he was working at the moment it seemed, as opposed to just enjoying the celebration, so she decided she'd likely be better off catching up with him a little later. Sylvi started wandering around the area, smiling slightly at the fact that it was nice to just wander around, enjoying the sort of festival. There wasn't too much like this really back where she was from. The thought of her home land made her think about the problems between the Land of Long Nights and the Eastern Snow Plains. She laughed at the thought considering the fact that she was dating someone from the Snow Plains, and she was the Princess of the Land of Long Nights.

Then she heard the Prince yell out, something about a murderer, and she wasn't too far away from where he was. Sylvi generally wasn't much of one to sword fight, but she was trained in how to use one and carried her rapier around wherever she went, and she charged over that direction, drawing her sword and reaching the prince in time to see him get stabbed by someone. "Get away from him!" she yelled out at the thing, before she slashed at the assassin. However, when she stabbed the creature, it didn't seem to phase him at all, and this was definitely not something that she could easily explain in her mind.

Pulling her rapier back, this time she decided to aim for a body part a bit more important, namely his head. She stabbed at him again, this time managing to hit him in the eye, blinding him. The problem is, she had expected to do a bit more damage to the creature then that, considering most people would die fairly easily from being stabbed in the eye. "Prince Myrus, I would suggest you get out of here!" she said, looking over at him, he really needed to get away from this thing quickly.

Queen Valda

Location: The Palace - Outside Luna's Room

"I've been alright, wish things would calm down just a little bit, but that's too much to ask for..." she said with a slight shrug, looking at Luna. Valda turned her head over and saw Ahote there, and she was wondering what it is that he was up to. Hearing his words, she was a bit confused as to what it was that he was going on about. The halls being crowded? That made absolutely no sense, especially given how a lot of people were outside for Bonfire Night.

"Of course, let's go in," she responded, nodding her head slightly before she walked inside of Luna's room. After a few moments, she turned back around, and looked right at Ahote, "So, mind explaining what is going on? Did you see something?" she asked him a bit softly, unsure of what was really going on. This was a really strange situation, did this have something to do with Fleur and her eventual attack? Or was it someone else?

Sylvi gave him a smile, returning his kiss. "I'm doing alright, might see about doing some sort of performance later maybe, see about earning a little bit of money or something," she said with a slight shrug. Hearing him talk to Amarantha though, made her realize that perhaps she might have been interrupting some conversation about what he's been working on. Another thing that she did know, she wasn't so sure if she wanted to be around during a demonstration for whatever device that he was giving to the woman. Sylvi didn't know who it was that was with Amarantha, and didn't really know what to think of her.

"Sounds like you have your hands full here... I might see about wandering around a little bit or something..." she said simply, giving him a bit of a smile. It was fine with her, though she did notice that he didn't exactly seem to be around too much, and she stopped wondering what it was that he was doing. Well, more of just pushed her curiosity into the back of her mind, using the slight excuse that it might be him helping out Amarantha or something. Though a little voice in the back of her mind kept saying he was hiding something from her, she just wasn't sure what it was. She gave him another smile, "Well, I'll see you in a little bit then," she added as she wandered away from him, Amarantha and Mona.

Bruce Banner

Location: Asgard - Bruce and Myth's house

Bruce let out a sigh, going over to Marya, "Hey, it's okay Marya... We can see about going to Midgard right now if you want to, how does that sound?" he said softly, giving her a bit of a smile. He was used to people throwing tantrums of any sort, he did have two younger sisters, and one in particular who always was getting into trouble. This was pretty common in his family, that was for sure.

Hearing the door and seeing Myth get up to go see who it was, he followed along behind her, and was a bit surprised to see his mother standing there. However the look on her face made him a bit nervous. "Mother? What's wrong? Not that I'm not glad to see you, but I can definitely tell that something is going on... What is it?" he asked her, he had a worried expression of his own on his face now.
