Luna smirked at the bartenders comment and continued to sip her drink. Along the wall with the various alcohol, where polaroid photos of past people who had sang either successfully or unsuccessfully and had their pictures taken. The patrons in the photos looked liked they had a good time with the time they had spent there. As she scanned she noted the cameras she had been looking for. They could probably get their hands on the footage if they asked the right questions, or created a distraction. As she made her scan, the bartender cursed and Luna glanced back at him and tried her hand at searching his mind again. She couldn’t gather much other than the fact that Leighton and Max weren’t supposed to be down in the basement with the other bartender. Which made Luna wonder, what was down there and what the others had possibly found.
Havok slid in next to Luna which surprised her but she kept that comment on a tight leash. They were on a mission and their feelings for each other did not matter on the mission. She sipped her drink again after his question and eyed the gentleman that Jack was talking to. ”Give me a moment,” she responded and switched from the bartender’s easy mind to the older man’s.
”Didn’t your father ever teach you to not intrude upon the minds of others… Little Britain?”
Luna smirked and saw several flashes of his memory from a life long gone before she was forced from the man’s mind. It was rather violent and Luna felt hot liquid dribble down her nose. She grabbed a nearby napkin and held it to her nose, pinching the bridge of it to stop the sudden nose bleed. ”He seems to know who I am, though I have never seen him before but he isn’t from here. He’s old, like Victorian old and originally from England,” Luna informed him. Which might be another reason why he may know her family.
Luna glanced back to the bartender than the Polaroids on the back wall. ”The bartender is a little worried for the people who just went downstairs,” Luna mumbled to Havok. ”Do you think you may recognize anyone in those photos that you would want a closer look at so I could get downstairs,” she asked Havok. Either she needed to provide a distraction to get downstairs, or he did. There was something down there, even if this bartender didn’t know what it was but he did know they weren’t supposed to be down there.

Cayden looked over at Colossus when asked if his sister would like the bear he held. ”Uh, she might but see if there is something more neutral bud. One with less, bows,” he said and smiled at Colossus. Cayden poked around at some of the other gifts, seeing what sort of trinkets they had and just keeping his hands and mind busy. He heard Waverley and wandered to her side. ”Why would it be bad if they are wireless?” He wasn’t completely savvy on technology as he didn’t have much growing up.
Cayden looked over at the clock when Colossus spoke up. The pressure would be on now and Cayden wondered if Waverley worked well under pressure. He laid a hand on Waverley’s arm and gave her a reassuring smile. ”Take your time and breathe. Think it through. If you are feeling rushed or not completely focused, you may overlook something. We got you covered on the outside,” he reassured.

Antoinette was highly amused by a drunk Iron Man. He still seemed to think as a genius did but he was acting anything but. To see what it was like inside that man’s mind would be rather interesting. Antoinette remained at Carolina’s side while the discussion continued on what to do and where to go next. As long as Antoinette remained with her friends, the people she loved from this reality and the other, she would be content. Runa and Lance finally came through and Antoinette relaxed further. At least they would all be going to the same place, which was through another portal apparently.
Carolina pulled Antoinette along and she was glad to be holding her friend’s hand so she felt a little more grounded stepping into yet another random building. Different sounds and smells greeted them here but there were some familiar faces from the Palace fight. Including one face that Antoniette knew from what seemed like another lifetime. She released Carolina’s hand and walked over to Sapphire and Niah. Sapphire, along with Flynn, had helped get Antoinette out of that O.M.E.N. building and into the hands of the X-Men. Antoinette watched Sapphire’s quick work with patching up Niah. It seemed like she had it well and under control but still, Antoinette decided to ask if Sapphire needed anything. ”Do you need an extra hand at all?” She didn’t notice the topic of conversation she had walked into but was merely happy to see another friendly face. Antoinette looked back over at Flynn, wondering if he had his memories yet.

”Daybreak. Some zombie show. I don’t know why we were all obsessed with zombie things for so long but it isn’t bad. Pretty funny too,” she noted. If Layla had paid the bill than maybe they were fixing something. A notice of some kind would have been nice but this building wasn’t exactly the four seasons but it was dry and free of bugs. She finished off her muffin and licked her fingers free from any crumbs. Cassiopeia sighed, resting her head on her sister’s shoulder as she watched the show. ”Ya I guess, I was really hoping to be lazy in bed all day though,” she informed her sister.
Cassiopeia reached out and scratched Fuzzy’s head before lifting hers back and looked over at the letter sitting loose on the edge of her bed. She had always been curious about her birth parents. They were older when they were finally adopted out so they knew from the beginning that they had real parents somewhere. Cassiopeia just assumed they were dead. It was better than thinking that her and her sister were unwanted. ”We could always go to Oak Park. I mean, between the two of us with our knife throwing and my archery skill, it’s hard pressed we would be taken if it was a hoax or something of that nature,” Cassiopeia mused.

Willow inhaled the fresh cup of coffee appreciatively and started to add some cream and sugar to take away a bit of the bitterness. She looked at Sierra and shook her hand gently, smiling. ”Willow and sure, if you’d like. I guess you aren’t that busy today,” Willow noted and looked around the diner. She looked back at Sierra when she mentioned school. ”Oh? What are you taking?” Willow picked up her coffee and blew on it a bit before taking a sip. It wasn’t horrible but it wasn’t Starbucks.
Willow was glad for the conversation, wanting a bit of distraction. The letter had her shook and she worried for her parents. Willow set her coffee down and pulled out her phone. She texted the group chat her and her parents had, asking if they were alright and if they had received any strange letters. Her dad was a well known lawyer and no stranger to hate mail but her mother was a teacher. Why would she be in danger? After sending the text Willow set her phone on the table so she would hear the responding text ring through before she opened up her textbook. ”Sorry, I should be studying. Unfortunately. You can stay seated there if you need a break though.” Willow never really wanted to study but she cared about what she was learning and that meant needing to study. At least she was interested in this stuff.

Ezekiel stood on the deck of the Big House, looking over at Mr. D and the others as he debriefed them a bit more. The symbol of Ares appeared over Jason’s head and Ezekiel nodded approvingly before Kristin spoke up. He rolled his eyes at her and walked into the Big House to check on inventory or something. He just needed to get away from her and all the people. Ezekiel was pretty outgoing and a big flirt but every once in awhile a guy just needed some alone time. No one had gotten seriously hurt at the barrier fight so Ezekiel would most likely get some peace for a while unless a headless body showed up needing to be buried. Like that would happen.
Ezekiel shuffled to his usual work station and went through his supplies. He pulled out his medical notebook and took stalk of what he had. Having it all written down in front of him would help him remember what supplies he needed to gather from storage to top off. As he worked, Ezekiel pulled out his iPod and headphones, hitting play before he stuck the things over his head and tuned out the world a little bit. Maybe he would go for a swim later or try his hand a little song writing.

Luna accepted her drink and took a healthy sip before setting the glass down on the bar. She nodded her head as the bartender answered her question. Made sense. No one her age and younger seemed to be able to party without an extra helping hand. ”That must cause things to become right raucous,” Luna noted. ”Everyone hopped up on drugs. Ever had to kick someone out?” She picked up her drink again and sipped it slowly. Maybe they had kicked this girl out before she had gotten kidnapped, or maybe they knew mutants came here and kicked them out. It was a bit of a dive bar, one that suggested 'you mind your business, we'll mind ours' but Luna wasn't certain.
Veil shuffled off, excusing herself to the bathroom and Luna kept an eye on her drink for her while she went. The rest of the group seemed to be mingling and blending into what little crowd there was. Jack was still talking with that elderly man and were engaged in a deep conversation. Luna wondered if that would play into their favour or not. Luna looked back behind the bar again, searching for any pictures or cameras that monitored the patrons. Shaw must have a system and some sort of security in place in order for whoever he placed in charge here to know when and what mutants to kidnap.

Cayden mouthed the two names of the drugs to himself several times, trying to wrap his mouth around the large words. Methadone he figured he had grasped pretty well but the other one… Heck, it was easier to say supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Cayden moved over as best he could for Colossus and his sister to slip in. Thankfully the big guy had shifted into his non-mutant form. That would have been a dead give away if they walked in with the tin man. Cayden wondered who he would qualify as. The scarecrow or the lion. Casper was definitely Dorothy. Maybe Toto.
The van turned over and they rolled forward, heading to the hospital. Cayden bounced his head along, drumming his hands on his legs to a silent beat that was going on in his head. It had dual purpose, calming his nerves as well as getting him amped up. They reached the hospital, having a better plan in mind and all of them bailed out. He smiled at Colossus as he held the door open for Waverley and him. ”Oh, that would be nice big guy. Perfect location for Waverley to do her stuff too,” he noted. ”See you guys on the other side.” Cayden waved to Tome, Sapphire and Casper before walking into the hospital’s gift shop.

The victory achieved by Cuyler and Arnora was short lived. The girl who had claimed Cuyler’s eye stood as the ice thawed around her quickly, she smiled knowingly at Cuyler and as he accented shifted to one he knew well, he couldn’t help but find her familiar. A tattoo appeared and Cuyler recognized it as Pisces, the fish and once that was recognized, he understood that this woman was Sága. The arrow sticking out of Cuyler’s eye was getting rather annoying but he wasn’t about to pull it and his eye out along with it. The words Sága was saying made sense but not in this context. ”What do you mean I can’t have two eyes to drink the water of Mimir and why am I drinking it?” He seemed rather calm, given the fact that this woman took half his sight. Cuyler was just incredibly confused and frustrated and perhaps a little stunned to be questioning a god so boldly as he was but Cuyler wasn’t ready to become someone else’s pawn. Rowland and his mother had done that enough already.
Thia stood up as the woman shifted, revealing a different look, a different smell and a different sound. She growled instinctively at the woman since she changed before their very eyes but there was an ancientness to her that caused the Night Transformer to give pause. She seemed to recognize that scent. A scent passed down through the generations it seemed. Thia remained standing at Cuyler's side in a protective manner. She was leery of this whole thing, much like her owner was. Cuyler rested a hand on Thia’s head, seeking her comfort as well as to steady the wolf. The adrenaline was starting to wear down and Cuyler was discovering a rather sharp burning pain in the back of his skull that was accompanied by a rather terrible headache.

Amarantha rolled her eyes as Luna said they would find a cure. She shook her, exasperated and suddenly very tired. The constant hunger was starting to take its toll and she just wanted to lay down. ”There is no cure,” she told her former friend. Amarantha hoped, for some unknown reason, that Mryus would give her mercy and allow Ahote to escort her off the Castle grounds but she knew it would never pass. It would be reckless of him to do such a thing. He was learning for he informed them all she would be going to the dungeons. ”Make sure you reinforce it with Magik. I am stronger than I formerly was and if I am to be kept starved I am sure it is only a matter of time before I become ravenous and you may have to put me down directly.” It was strange to be so accepting of a death sentence and teaching Mryus what he needed to do if he was going to take the path of enforcer.
Ahote looked at Amarantha apologetically before he moved out of the way and gestured for Amarantha to walk ahead of them all, leaving the two royals in the Palace Vaults. ”I will keep control of her should the worst happen,” Ahote told Mryus. Amarantha looked over at Luna as she passed. ”Don’t come looking for me. Just leave me be Luna. Don’t anger your siblings by disobeying them.” She looked back at Ahote and nodded. ”We best hurry, I’m growing hungry again.” Amarantha turned and pushed forward, ready to accept her fate. At least this way she would be present for the Castle’s destruction. Should it come before she’s killed.

Ahote sighed but nodded, accepting Prince Mryus’s ruling before he moved to escort Amarantha away. He looked at his friend while Amarantha seemed to say goodbye to Luna. At her urgency, Ahote pushed Amarantha ahead and they exited the vault. He noted her posture as they walked. She still held herself as if she were in charge, as if this was her decision but she walked slower, with less purpose. The former Deputy Hunter was hurting, that much was clear but she was no stranger to betrayal and hard decisions.
When they walked outside the Vault, both of them paused as Valda and Apollodora were still standing there. Ahote looked over at Amarantha, she was watching the Queen but there was nothing in her eyes. ”You’ve been here before,” he said. It wasn’t a question but understanding that she had to do what needed to be done multiple times, even with people she knew. Amarantha never faltered and she nodded once. ”Yes, but the roles were reversed. I was the executioner. Many times.”

Antoinette smiled at her friends, relaxing a little at hearing they were well. For now the fighting had subsided but Antoinette knew this was far from over. Still, she would take the reprieve gratefully. Antoinette missed Allison’s bit on her vision but she did notice two portals being opened and people splitting off. She looked at Carolina, hearing her say she was going to Stark Tower and Antoinette immediately followed suit. She grabbed onto Carolina’s hand and jumped through with her.
It was a bit disorienting going from one place to another but they made it. She looked behind her, still seeing the top floor of the Baxter building. She looked at Lance, wondering where he was going to go now. He had been with the other group who showed up but now that his memories were back and he found them all again, would he return with them? Her nose twitched a bit as she thought this all over and looked away from the portal to listen in on Tony Stark. ”Out of the frying pan and into the other,” she whispered to herself harmlessly.

Cassiopeia shut her eyes as the muffin hit her in the face and rolled down onto the bed. She glared at her sister before picking up the muffin and peeled away the wrapped. She separated the top half from the bottom half and set the top aside to eat the bottom first. She munched away, her stomach gurgling happily as it waited for sustenance. Suddenly the power shut off and they were left with the light outside and the glow of Cassiopeia’s computer screen. She frowned. ”We paid the bill right?” She swallowed her muffin and looked at the letter. She peered at the writing. Hand written by the looks of it. ”There’s no return address,” she noted before putting the rest of the muffin into her mouth and tore the letter open.
Artemis was doing just fine until Fuzzy came over and started pawing at her. She let off a warning growl that went unnoticed and than the chasing and fighting was on. Cassiopeia frowned and handed the letter to her sister. ”Doesn’t make much sense to me, and with no return address. It's probably a hoax.” Cassiopeia finished up her muffin before pressing play on her show again. She settled into the covers, moving over a bit so Layla could sit beside her and watch the show if she chose. Hopefully the power would be back on before her computer died.

The letter had Willow so shook, that she didn’t even notice when Sierra came over to take her order. She blinked at the thing then jumped, finally seeing Sierra. ”Oh! Hi, sorry. Um yes, could I get your french toast with a side of bacon and fruit please.” Willow handed the menu back to Sierra and folded up her letter. She picked up her coffee and took a sip of it, thankful that she hadn’t added too much sugar yet. The bitterness helped to take the edge off from the letter she had just read.
”Are you new here? I haven’t seen you around before,” Willow noted. She looked back at Sierra but couldn’t place her. How long had it been since Willow was last at the diner? She couldn’t quite recall come to think of it. She started wringing her hands, rubbing them together and twisting the ring around on her right ring finger. A nervous habit she developed but never really noticed. She should probably call her parents.

Ezekiel sighed when Leda rolled his eyes at him about the cut. ”Well I would but I won’t force it if she doesn’t want it and she doesn’t seem to want help from me,” Ezekiel told Kiera. ”She can go to the Big House and get some ambrosia or help from another Apollo kid if she wants it.” Ezekiel looked over at the walking encyclopedia and hung his head back, looking up at the sky and mouthed the word why. ”Do you ever not know something Kristen? Seriously, what is like when you don’t know something? Do you have a reset button? I should know this just encase your start to smoke out or twitch.”
He ran a hand through his hair and started walking with some of the others to the big house. He wasn’t terribly hungry anymore and with another set of new kids there might be a change in the days plans. Plus there would need to be a debriefing of some sort of the attack on the barrier, Ezekiel thought. May as well head to the Big House and Mr. D to see what was what.

”My axe? I assure you, it has no value to you here. It might not even work as it is supposed to but if you insist,” Cuyler said and flipped it over so the handle was pointing to her. His left hand twitched at his side though as Cuyler called for any signs of water around him. A near storefront had barrels of water sitting outside, ready to aid Cuyler. He took a step closer to his assailant, the axe non threatening as he readied to give Egil to her. ”Are you sure you want this old thing? I’m from the Land of Lost Nights, a trader. I am certain I may have something of more value to you or I can find what you seek,” Cuyler attempted to persuade her. She seemed to give him a look of annoyance and disbelief and now that Cuyler was closer to her, even if that arrow did not aim true it most likely wouldn’t miss him now.
Cuyler sighed but he wasn’t about to give up yet as he tried calling to the water to aid him. It responded, rushing out of the barrels towards him and the thief. Thia got to her feet and moved away to avoid being caught in the wake. Cuyler’s water moved quickly, wrapping around her ankles but his actions weren’t quick enough. He heard the familiar release of an arrow and it sunk into it’s mark. Cuyler was focused on the task of knocking the thief down that he didn’t register the arrow had embedded itself into his right eye. He couldn’t see from that eye but the adrenaline running through him had heightened everything else. He walked to the girl laying flat on the ground, water surrounding her and he glared down at her. Egil was flipped around again and Cuyler held the handle tightly, ready to use it or the water again. ”Was it worth it?” He looked down at the thief, awaiting her answer.

For some reason, the near death experience stopped Amarantha from continuing to act as an underfed mutt and she relaxed, not feeling the hunger or desire to feed. She watched Valda leave and started to laugh. It was an inhuman thing, something that only came out of people when they had given up and lost all faith in humanity. Amarantha seemed to think she had nothing left to fight for. Mryus was still hell bent on killing her, charging up a jewelry box at her but it blew up to soon. ”Well, as much fun as it is to have things explode in front of my face and hear that nobody gives a damn, even though I spent the last how many years keeping you people alive. I think I’m going to leave,” Amarantha said and hoisted herself to her feet. Well, foot since the other seemed to be in non working order. ”I’m proud of you Mryus, finally developed a backbone I see. Nice work Ahote. I’ll give you two options Myrus. Either you can let me leave, or you can lock me up. Dealer’s choice since the reason I came here in the first place just left.” It seemed that now Amarantha wasn’t incredibly hungry, she had calmed some. Hangry still seems to be a thing.
Amaratha looked at Luna, still trying to defend her. ”Just stop Luna. If Mryus misfires and you get in the way,” Amarantha shook her head. ”Just go with Valda before she gets to far ahead. Listen to Apollodora. I trust her with everything I am,” Amarantha stated. She looked back at Ahote and Mryus. ”Clocks ticking boys.” Standing here, waiting for other people to decide her fate, Amarantha realized a few things. She loved more than just Luna and that saddened her to some degree. She didn't feel the need to explain her actions or why she had acted the way she had earlier. Her words had been harsh but she had been trying to save them. She was always trying to save them. It bothered her deep down that Valda didn't look past the raging monster but that's what Amarantha had been trained to be. Unfortunately for her, Amarantha still had a heart that loved and it had pinned her down from taking the chains by force.

This wasn’t a decision Ahote could make. He looked at Mryus, not at all surprised that the prince was still trying to defend and protect. It was who Mryus was deep down. Past the anxiety, the fear, he was loyal and protective and he was brave. Amarantha seemed to calm some, despite her blown apart limb. Ahote was starting to get a headache from the confusion he was feeling. He wasn’t certain locking her up would be such a wise idea. Not if the blood lust where to get worse again. ”I can escort her from the Castle,” Ahote offered.
Ahote had a lot of respect for Amarantha and she could easily have gone off worse than she had. He knew stories from her time in the Young Army. Amarantha was ruthless but to those she was loyal to, she showed great restraint and compassion. She was loyal to the cause and this family. She was loyal in protecting them. ”Mryus, if she is off the Castle property she will not be feeding from your people, and there is the wildlife she can have as well. She’s given much to you,” Ahote added, finding himself pleading Amarantha’s case.
