Cassi was relieved to hear that they would be able to bring the cats. One way or another they would be safe and she could still keep her annoying companion with her. Cassiopeia wouldn’t change Artemis for anything. Except for maybe not having to see Matthew and Colby kiss.
Cassiopeia stared for a moment before shaking her head and shifting the cat carrier.
”Oh great, you’re in love. How gross for everyone,” she said but smiled as she walked away. At least something good came out of killer crows.
Cassiopeia followed behind Merlin down the stairs and heard Megan say Rumpelstiltskin took her brother. Cassiopeia cursed and looked at the others in the room from what she could see.
”I knew it was too quiet.”

Willow blushed when she returned to see Maddie and Colby kissing. She thought it was sweet but she hadn’t seen many boys kissing before. Even though she was in university. Willow was still a little new to the LGBTQ+ community and being an ally, so seeing it made her blush but she was completely supportive.
”I’m glad you two are okay,” she said to the men as she passed them. She was genuinely happy that they had made it through. Merlin said it was magic related, that much was obvious. She didn’t think birds would just smash through a window and start attacking normally.
Willow headed down the stairs when there was a bit of a backlog as Merlin was stopped by Megan and then Cassi behind him. Willow was in shock hearing that Rumpelstiltskin was here.
”Maybe he was responsible for the bird attack!”

”I have no idea what a stormtrooper is but if they have poor aim, unfortunately I agree with you.” Ezekiel was even more perturbed that the sound of the sonic arrow had no effect on the chimera. Perhaps the sounds was too high pitched for the creature to notice. He would save the remaining sonic arrows for the other monsters. It was time to pull out the big guns.
Ezekiel glanced back to see how Janelle was managing and she still seemed to be hovering off the ground. He didn’t know anyone back at camp that could fly. That would be a sweet tale to tell. Suddenly the room got warm and Ezekiel looked back to see the chimera blowing fire and Janelle dodging. At the very least the poisonous tail was something they didn’t have to worry about anymore. Unfortunately, Zeke didn’t cut it off so he wouldn’t get to keep it even if he wanted it.
Ezekiel slipped the bow over his shoulder and brought his hands up and the light in the room started to shift. Ezekiel pulled as much light as he could and aimed it for the chimera’s eyes. He succeeded in blinding the Chimera which would hopefully, give Kristin and him more of an advantage. He knew Kristin had just asked Janelle to try and put the creature to sleep but if he could get it killed, Janelle could just focus on the other six monsters and then they could tackle Echidna together. Hopefully.
Ezekiel pulled his sword out, hitting the button on the pendant and rushed the creature and swung it over his head, trying to impale the creature in the chest. Unfortunately, Ezekiel completely missed. Perhaps he should have gone after the other creatures. Ah well, he was already there and so Ezekiel swung forward again. He hit the creature but he couldn’t cut the hide. Yup, time for the great creature to be put to sleep.

Wrong place at the wrong time was plausible. How many times had that happened to them before anyways. Antoinette worked on easing herself into the idea of being interrogated when she felt heat behind her. Confused, Antoinette turned around to see her friend on fire. Shock filled Antoinette as the smell of burning flesh hit her nose. This wasn’t some show of force, Iris was really burning alive.
”Iris!” Antoinette took a couple steps closer before Iris started to fail around, clearly in a panic. Was Epsilon doing this or did the Nova Corps have something to do with this? But Runa had said they were the good guys.
Antoinette didn’t have much time to process as Iris hit Ed accidently before Pietro ran over and threw Iris out into space. Antoinette couldn’t help but cry and run to the window. She knew not many liked Iris and to be fair she could be too outspoken at times but she was also a friend to Antoinette.
Even after Iris was gone, the smell of burning flesh stuck with Antoinette and made her feel uneasy. She had a feeling this memory was never going to leave her. While Antoinette tried to process, the voice from the Nova Corps came over the intercom and told them all to prepare for their arrival on the ship. Antoinette would have to compartmentalize for now.

Merlin showed up thankfully and took care of the birds. Cassi relaxed with her hands on her hips, at least until Merlin spoke again, an urgency in his voice. She quickly followed on her sister's heels before more crows broke through. Cassiopeia grabbed her bag, still full of everything she needed before she grabbed her bow and quiver of arrows.
”Do we bring the cats?” Cassi didn’t know how long they would be gone and she didn’t particularly want to leave them behind but they would be hard to carry as well.
Once they had everything they needed, Cassiopeia headed back into the hallway and waited for more instruction from Merlin. It was quiet downstairs and Cassiopeia seriously hoped it was just because everyone was taking a drink at the same time.

Willow assessed the damage of the room after the crows had gone and the state of Colby and Matthew before Merlin redirected them. He knew something and wherever these crows had come from, clearly it wasn’t good. She squealed as more crows crashed through the window before she dashed back to her room.
Willow grabbed her bag and daggers, not having anything else that she needed to carry. Bathing and new clothes were the furthest thing from her mind now as she went about her room gathering things. She didn’t know if Sierra would be able to make it up here, so she grabbed what she could before joining the others back in the hallway.

Ezekiel looked over at Janelle as she started to float, hopefully that was supposed to happen for her and not some creature doing it. Either way, whatever Janelle was doing to get some of the monsters to sleep, it was working. Ezekiel turned to assess the chimera more and remaining monsters that were awake when Kristin agreed to their plan. He shifted to comply, aiming the arrow for one of the chimera heads when hands were suddenly waving in front of him. A cyclops was trying to knock his bow out. Ezekiel managed to take a couple steps back before aiming his arrow at his current assailant.
”Never touch another man’s bow dude, come on,” Ezekiel stated. He lined up his bow and arrow for a headshot to kill the cyclops but his arrow shifted and impaled itself in the cyclops’s shoulder.
”Dammit. Sorry Sunshine, gonna be a few!” Ezekiel said and quickly took aim again at the cyclops who was not too happy and coming after him. He aimed true and the arrow dropped the cyclops who disappeared into dust. Zeke turned to the chimera and aimed an arrow for one of the four eyeballs. His arrow sailed clean over both of their heads and Zeke frowned before grabbing a sonic arrow.
”Gonna get loud” This time Ezekiel aimed his sonic arrow at one of chimera's necks. He imbedded the arrow into the chimera's neck but the screaming of the arrow or the arrow in its neck didn't even seem to phase it. Excellent. Maybe they should blow up the barrels.

Waiting was always the hard part. It allowed the mind to wander far too much. Antoniette continued to look out the window at the strange ship that was watching them, There wasn’t generally a reason for firing first on an unknown ship other than fear. Finally though, noise came through and Antoinette turned to look at the speakers.
Runa seemed to have it well handled as she spoke calmly. They didn’t seem to care that she was Asgaridan but the person on the other ship did give pause when the anomaly was mentioned. Perhaps that meant they knew of it? Antoinette looked back out the window, watching the ship. It had fallen silent again, other than the idle conversation happening on this ship. Guin spoke up and Antoinette finally walked away from the window and stood by Edus.
”They want to arrest us?” Surely she heard Guin clearly but she couldn’t quite believe it herself.

Cassiopeia was nearly to the stairs when her sister climbed up and then there was a crash like glass breaking. She jogged off with her sister, curious as to what the sound was. What they found though was not what Cassiopeia was expecting. Crows were flying in and started attacking Matthew and Colby. Her sister dove in right away and Cassiopeia followed suit.
Attacking crows wasn’t something she had a hard time with. They were scavengers and always picking at things and were a nuisance when it came to camping. Hunting on the other hand, they were excellent at cleaning up the mess. Cassiopeia waved her arms around at the birds, trying to get them to release their hold on Matthew. She succeeded but then the bird started attacking Cassiopeia.
"Where are the cats when you need them," she grumbled. Cassiopeia would normally try to just kill the bird but with how much was freaking out about using a bird for his own devices, he might freak even more or pass out.

Cleaning up sounded like a wonderful idea and Willow was happy they would be given time for it. She smelled like fire and it was a bit nauseating. Willow sniffed her clothes, smelling the fire on them as well but she wasn’t likely to get a new pair of clothes. Maybe she had something in her bag that would help with the smell. Meanwhile, she could get the smell of smoke out of her hair and off her skin.
Willow followed Sierra up the stars and heard a commotion. It sounded like yelling and squawking crows. Willow frowned, following the sound to Colby and Matthew’s room.
”What on earth…” There were crows flocking around Colby and Matthew, while Cassi and Layla were trying to help. Cassiopeia went back to the stairwell and called down for Merlin.

Ezekiel drew out an arrow and his bow. He held the arrow notched in the bow down in front of him, not aiming at anything but was ready when they walked through the door. There were several badies around, a few moving barrels and Echnida herself sneering at them. What exactly were they late for? The rest of camp and New Rome would know by now that Echnida was coming after them all. After all Ezekiel had warned them and they had gotten here as quickly as they could.
”Got it, barrels go boom, bad,” Ezekiel said and looked away from the barrels. He caught Echnida’s eye and frowned when she asked who wanted to feed her pet first and then the thing in her bag grew. Ezekiel shifted, taking half a step back and looked at it. Good gods, now would be the time for one of the gods to give them an advantage of some kind.
”Hey Janelle, I think now would be a good time to see if you could put people to sleep,” he said. They knew she could invade people’s dreams, but maybe she could put them to sleep as well. Putting creatures to sleep as well would be wonderful. Ezekiel had no idea how they were going to take out that thing.
”I go high, you go low?” The question was directed at Kristin as he raised his bow and aimed it at one of the creatures heads. What had they just walked in on?

Antoinette nodded at Lance’s explanation and decided to keep looking out the window just in case. Eventually, the sensors leveled out but they weren’t in the clear. After Lance saw something on the sensors, Antoinette saw the ship approaching. It had a beautiful insignia but Antoinette thought it was less beautiful when they started firing on them. The ship rocked and Antoinette fell back, landing rather hard on her butt. She shifted a bit but when the ship got hit again, she decided to stay on the ground for now.
There seemed to be problems arising within the cockpit again as Lance regained his balance after being thrown. They had lost steering but life support was still good so they could manage for a time. Antoinette stood up again after the ship stopped rocking and she looked out the window again. She saw their ship fire upon the other ship and Antoinette watched them get it. Her eyes reflected the explosion of the hit and she smiled a little.

”Wonderful shot Guin!”

After Guin’s shot, both ships seemed to stop firing and then Runa spoke up. Antoinette had never heard of the Nova Corps but if they were supposed to be peacekeepers, why were they firing first before hailing them? It was all rather strange. Hopefully they would be able to make contact and work out this misunderstanding.

Cassiopeia stole a few moments to herself and relished in it. She went over to the cats, given them both lots of love, telling them about the adventure they had. Artemis just stared at Cassi, rolling over for belly rubs before taking off and zipped around the room twice. Cassiopeia shook her head before she went and cleaned herself up.
It took her a bit to wash and clean up but Cassiopeia felt more refreshed and smelled less like a sewer. She dressed in a new pair of clothes, hoping there was a place she could wash the clothes she had been wearing. They didn’t have much on them and Merlin would probably have to magic her clothes like he did with her bag. For now though, she headed back down to see what was going on.

Willow smiled and waved at Red when she looked at them all. Merlin spoke up about returning to the tower and contacting more of their parents. Willow was eager to go back to the tower if it meant contacting her mother. She wondered if contacting the rest of their parents would be easier than having to rescue Red but if people were going to be after them now, it would be a risk.
Being on the road again with people looking for them would be difficult but Willow was more eager to be on the move. ”I’ll go back,” she said. She wouldn’t miss any opportunities to meet her mother. Willow looked over at Sierra to see if she would be on board as well.
