@BlackPanther Well having a dog chew stuff is unfortunate, but that's what you get when you don't pay enough attention to them, and having to go to a cousins birthday bbq and get free food and beer is pretty fortunate in my book.

Benji followed Paon and the others to a rough looking bar in a more run down part of town. They were lead to second part of the bar filled with dragons in various forms. Some of the dragons referred to Paon as “the blind prince,” and a majority of them showed signs of respect to the royal dragon. “I had no idea we were traveling with royalty, your highness.” He said with friendly sarcasm and a grin. Willa expressed her excitement about seeing so many dragons. The dragons were cool but he didn’t want to stare at them like they were a bunch of zoo animals. Most of the stories he’d heard about dragons had them as villains destroying villages and hoarding treasure but those were stories written by non-supernaturals so he didn’t put a lot of stock in them. Most stories about werewolves weren’t exactly flattering either. The way Willa’s eyes lit up as she watched the dragons was endearing, he liked seeing her look happy and after a stressful couple of days it was good to be somewhere where they could feel safe. He doubted that even the scientists would have the man power or be foolish enough to attack an entire den full of dragons.

Benji followed Willa to secluded corner where she kissed him. He let go of her hand and wrapped one arm around her waist to pull her closer and his other hand rested against her cheek with his fingers in her hair. He grinned at her as she broke their kiss and paused to catch his breath. She whispered into his ear and he pulled her closer in an embrace. “How could I forget something like that?” He replied. “I love you.” He added before looking around the bar again and spotting the bar. “You want to get a drink and meet all of Paon’s dragon friends?” He asked noticing the guy in full armor taking to Paon.

Charlie nodded and mixed together the antibiotic cream, hydra blood and a few of the other standard healing ingredients they had in the labs. He applied the mix to the laceration on Right’s wing and bandaged the wound up with materials from the first aid kit. “Alright dude, you should be good in a few if anything feels off let me know but it should be fine. How you feeling?” He asked sure the mixture would work but curious as to how fast the addition of hydra blood would speed up the healing process. “You feel up to getting some CSF from the hippocampi?” Charlie asked, thinking that the cerebral spinal fluid would work as a good buffer in the freezer ray.

@Helo YAY!!!! We've missed you! I was beginning to worry about you. I'll be able to get on Monday night for a little while. That's the next time I know for sure after tonight.

@Blackpanther

@Wick

sorry my laptop charger was chewed up by my friends dog and I had to order a new one then I forgot I had to go to a cousins birthday thing today but no more lengthy absence. If I'm ever gone for a few and you need to move my characters along or anything feel free to do so, I don't want to hold anyone up

Benji nodded when Paon mentioned a place for lunch that was a far walk. The further from the motel the better as far as he was concerned. “I’m all for lunch Paon, lead the way.” He said taking another scan of their surroundings. He took notice from his peripheral vision of the camera’s around the area and made sure not look towards them. As for the rest of Jane’s advice; he naturally avoid authorities as they only brought trouble and he only used the occasional stolen credit card. He was glad they had avoided a confrontation with Jane, having seen some of what she could do he didn’t want to end up as her enemy. He noticed she skirted the question as to why Edge had sent her after them. He couldn’t see how he or Willa could’ve done anything to slight Edge and Paon didn’t seem like the type who’d be a threat to them either. He focused on Willa’s hand intertwined with his own to draw his attention away from the danger of their situation. How they managed to become a threat to Edge was beyond him but for now there was nothing they could do about it, at least not without more information.

-----------------------------------------------------------
Charlie nodded. “Yeah I figured since they have such quick regenerative properties they could really speed up healing times. You grab some Hydra blood and I think the first aid kits around here have some kind of generic antibiotic creams. And of course I’ll help you, as long as you don’t mind being a guinea pig for my idea.” He said following Right. Hopefully his idea worked well, from what he’d heard Right was one of the boss’s favorites so he hoped his proposed idea worked out. He also got the feeling that Right was a dangerous guy and he’d rather gain brownie points than to cross him.

Sorry it's been a few I'll be able to post sunday

The Animorphs

Ig’s hand was quickly pressed against one of the sides of the blue cube and felt a rush of knowledge and visions flood his mind. In moments he understood the morphing process and the rules and limitations this power had and the importance for them to win this war. It was not only the fate of Earth that hung in the balance but many other planets that would fall to the Yeerks if they failed and allowed the alien slugs to control so many new hosts. The alien ordered them to leave but Jimmy was still trying to find a way to save the Andalite’s life. Ig felt pangs of grief for the alien, they had just met the creature but he had come a long way to save a planet that was not his own. He still had so many questions; why was this alien fighting such an important battle alone, would more of his people come as it seemed if the Yeerks took control here it would be devastating for the rest of the galaxy, could such a small group really make difference against an entire alien race. If this alien was willing to die for Earth than he was to, whatever it took he’d make a difference. “Thank you.” He said simply to the alien. “For giving us a fighting chance.” He bowed his head to the alien.

“Jimmy, I don’t think he can.” Ig said wondering if it was because of some strategy or if there was a point when the body became too weak to morph; judging by the alien’s injuries it wouldn’t surprise Ig if the alien lacked the strength and focus to go through the transformation. He felt a need to avenge this noble warrior, it find his enemies the Yeerks and their Vissers, and strike them down. He followed Audrey and others out of the ship, with no morphs to battle in they needed to leave before trouble showed up or they’d all be sitting ducks. The thought of being able to become any animal he could touch opened up so many possibilities. It was exciting to think about be able to see through the eyes of another species, to fly as hawk, to run as wolf, or swim as a shark.

Benji let go of Willa’s hand and put some distance between them. They had been followed by one woman, he located her by scent and kept watch. He saw no backup, black vans or other immediate threats and doubted the scientists would send one to capture three. He was far enough away for Willa to have a civil meeting with the woman but close enough that his heightened hearing could make out bits of what they were saying. Paon had circled behind the woman and nodded to him, it was good to know Paon was sticking with them. He didn’t know the man well enough to trust him completely but he’d trusted and respected him enough to go into battle with him without worry.

He heard the woman mention one of them was a threat to Edge, which is when he realized she was Jane. The footage from the news was fuzzy at best but she looked the part and it made sense why they had only sent one person after them. What didn’t make sense was why Edge would be after any of them, they were all supernaturals and, as far as he knew, none of them worked with the scientists. He headed closer to them noticing that some of crowd was paying them all a good bit of attention. A few people were on cell phones likely alerting authorities which would likely alert the scientists as well. He was by Willa’s side as she suggested they go for lunch. “We need to get far away from this side of town before police or scientists show up.” He said quietly.
--------------------------------------------

Charlie thought about Right’s offer, he wasn’t entirely sure what all was left as he hadn’t been assigned to inventory but he was sure most of the aquatics were still secured. You couldn’t exactly release fish monsters into the wild if they didn’t have a land based form. “I’m guessing the Hippocampi is still here?” He asked referring the mythological sea-horse that he’d recently found out was a real thing. “I think we could use it to help stabilize the freeze ray and balance out the ice elements from the Frost Giant with a powerful stabilizer from the Hippocampi. Oh West and I were working on a freeze ray, well I’m not supposed to call it a freeze ray, he calls it Cryo-artillery technology. Anyway it could be profit weapons venture like the lightning guns were.” He said with a great deal of excitement.

“Don’t we have a Hydra as well? Have you thought of making a salve with hydra blood to help regenerate your tissue? That looks like a pretty bad laceration, you probably don’t want to wait for that to heal the long way.” He said looking at the wound Right had on his wing.

Benji felt a bit like a kid having to hold hands as they walked about the street. He didn't care for running he'd rather stand and fight whoever it or they were, but going full wolf in full daylight and in a crowded place would be foolish. He also didn't want to force the danger of a fight on Willa or Paon if they preferred to run. If they were scientist and if things went bad and it looked like they would be taken in he could go full werewolf again, it should be enough to make sure they didn't take Willa. She'd have the best chance of breaking them out if any of them did get caught with her power over technology.

“We are certainly being followed, I'm guessing scientists or military. They smelled like explosives, no way they're not after us. Should have kept the dragon with us, I'm guessing he's good in scrap. If things go south I'll keep 'em busy, you get out and if I get taken you can always come break me out okay?” He talked in a hushed voice though he wasn't sure invisibility in crowd was as helpful as in more spacious conditions. People were bumping into them, and several people were looking around to locate what they had bumped into and a few people were starting to get upset. All the news stories about supernaturals had people paranoid, though in this case they were not wrong. Paon appearing out of thin air caused even more confusion to the crowd. He headed in a different direction, likely to take a lot the focus with him.
-------------------------------------------

Charlie nodded as Right explained to him about Perytons. “Yeah I've heard of them, chaotic evil monster. Back in high school we did a campaign in the Forgotten Realm and a Peryton almost ate my heart right out my chest. I made it through, it was a close call for Vorlock but man it was a great adventure.” He rambled on for a second before noticing Right might not know what he was talking about. “I played a lot of Dungeons and Dragons back then.” He added to clarify. “I bet their feathers would be useful.” He said glancing towards the room where the creature was. If they were anything like the ones he'd read about in manuals he could thing of a few uses for them. “You need any help with that or anything else?” He asked, having a bit of extra time before he needed to get back to his other projects.

Benji shrugged when Paon offered to buy a car. “Well if you've got the money to just go around buying cars whenever go for it. Probably should have guessed you'd have cash, every story I've ever heard has dragons guarding treasure.” He said joking around a bit. “There's a used lot a couple blocks from here, they look less than reputable I'm sure they can be quick and discrete for a price.” He added and nodded when Paon grabbed a shirt to borrow. Willa seemed to be more freaked out than Paon or himself and she grabbed them both by the hand, turning them invisible, and headed out the door.

“Hey, Sparkie, calm down. I should probably go check out first, it'll look pretty suspicious if I skip out on the motel bill the morning after bodies were found right near here.” He whispered to Willa. He'd used a fake name and ID to book the room but they seen his face so the last thing he needed was a sketch of him on the evening news. He stopped walking suddenly and sniffed the air. He'd caught a scent that didn't belong near the motel and it took a few seconds to place it and when it did he felt an overwhelming sense of danger. “Something smells like explosive filler, military grade, and hot metal.” He whispered.
--------------------------------

Charlie stepped out of his office to buy a snack and was having a difficult time deciding between corn nuts and spicy snack mix. He eventually hit the code for the snack mix and headed back to the office. On his way back he saw Right dragging a deer man into a room, the guy was covered in something that looked slimy and his wing had a tear. “Hey horrifying monster man, what are you covered in?” He asked wondering if it was something he should collect a sample of. He tossed a handful of snack mix into his mouth and studied Right's appearance which which incidentally didn't freak him out the way it would have a few days ago.

Benji glanced at Willa and turned up the television. “I saw the that girl at theater, Jane, she was amazing. Saved a lot of our people there, taking out scientists and their army left and right. No way she works for them so why should we be enemies? As for the break in it didn't really look like Bobby but who knows with the right disguise anyone can look different. I agree though, we need to get away from here.” He said making sure to keep Maren's name away from it, he wasn't sure how well they could trust Paon and he didn't want to put her in danger if she was on their side. He went into the bathroom to shower and carefully cleaned his wound with some antibacterial soap. He rebandaged the injury and changed into fresh clothes.

As he exited the bathroom the news had moved on to a story of bodies found near the motel they were staying at. One was suspected have been a bear mauling while the other stabbed with a piece of iron, they currently had no suspects or even an idea of what happened but it was suspected to be connect with the theater. “Well I'd say whenever we're all ready we should start putting some distance between us and this place. It's a big city we could head to the other side of town, maybe steal a car or something.” He suggested.

-------------------------------------

“Actually I had no caffeine this morning and no I'm not on drugs if that's what you're implying. I did have a wonderful hangover cure from Dr. West and I'm pretty sure it's given me more energy than large can of Red Bull.” Charlie said, awkwardly lowering his hand which had not been given the high five that he expected. He started thinking over her point about people stealing there personal information. “Well I'm pretty sure they have personal files under heavy encryption but they'd probably go after scientists and people who work more hands on with the subjects. You're probably safe from that sort of thing, safer than me at least.” He added laughing a bit, normally that would be something he'd probably worry a lot more about but today he felt very carefree and uninhibited. For a second he thought that was strange, it also felt vaguely strange that he felt none of the ethical concerns that had bothered him for the last few days. He quickly found those thoughts unimportant, it seemed ridiculous to worry about not being worried. "Anyway I'm running a bit late, we've got some big plans today." He said before heading off.

Charlie entered the room where Dr. West, Murphy and two other men from security who were even larger than Murphy. They stood around the bartender, a tall man who looked to be of Scandinavian descent, sat retained to a chair with chains, cuffs, and mask that reminded Charlie of Silence of the Lambs. The man spoke to them in a language Charlie didn't know. “Is that Swedish?” He asked Dr. West.

“I believe that would be old Norse.” West said sounding intrigued. He nodded towards Charlie who approached the man and attempted to draw blood from him. "What are you?" West asked.

“I am Hod, God of Winter.” The man hissed in English with obvious sarcasm as the needle pierced his arm, froze over and the blood tube shattered. West began to chuckle and the others joined in with him.

“What you think Doc? Ice Dragon? Warlock?” Murphy asked studying the man who reverted back to speaking old Norse. While Charlie couldn't understand the words he could hear the rage behind them.

“He's no dragon, I brought in an ichneumon earlier and it had no reaction. No, I'm thinking he's something even rarer.” West said before glancing at Murphy. “Our friend here looks a bit cold.” Murphy nodded and stepped outside the room for a second only to return with a butane torch. “We'll need a sample to confirm it, but I suspect we are dealing with a Jötunn.”

“He looks a bit small for a frost giant.” Murphy said.

“Tricks and magic, what else do you expect from these things.” West with a shrug and Murphy lit the blow torch.

It was a couple hours before Charlie returned to his own office. They had spent quite a bit of time studying and working with the collected tissue samples that confirmed what Dr. West suspected. Everyone who worked with West was pretty excited about it, there were plans for new weapon developments. Charlie, being the geek that he is, was very excited by possibly working on making a freeze ray. Dr. West had told him not to call it that but Charlie was very excited about the plans.
