Andy


Location: Edge of Camp Half Blood





Andy paused as the cab drove off. The driver looking very confused as to why these two had asked to be dropped off, in as far as he was concerned, the middle of nowhere. She watched the cab drive off for a moment and then turned to follow the satyr. He had told her that was what he was, had even shown her his hoofed feet. She had a hard time trusting the guy and that had been a wild moment for her. It wasn't that she even trusted him now, she thought as she followed him up the hill, it was more that she had nowhere else to go. Quite literally. Too many homeless camps had kicked her out. You knew you were bottom of the rung of society when the bottom of the rung was chasing you off.

She shook her head and continued up. Her friend led her passed a tree with a literal dragon wrapped around it and something golden shimmering in the branches. Andy gave the tree a wide berth. On the downslope of the hill, there was a man in a wheelchair waiting for them. Her friend waved and ran up to the man speaking to him for a moment gesturing at Andy who hung back nervous. She wasn't excited about this situation suddenly. The place seemed okay. There were some kids messing around in orange shirts. She wondered if they were actually prisoners, but they seemed to be having fun.
Kade put his hand on Alexander's shoulder gently. "Remember when I told you not to eat or drink anything here? Wash here has had food and drink. Sumi was seeing if he had eaten or drank yet. Leaving now..." Kade trailed off, his hand leaving Alexander's shoulder and glanced up at the large castle in the distance. "It would start a war." Lightning flashed across the sky and Kade winced. It felt like a threat. The rain didn't lessen either. It poured down harder.

"Take us to the ladder. Wash you can join as long as possible. I think it'll help to have a local for some of it at least." Sumi said first directing to Katalina and then to Wash. She gave Alexander a sympathetic look. "You'll know when you can't go any farther." She added.

Niah nodded to Maria, and then Tinley woke up Novikova and reamed her a new one. Niah understood why but she was certainly feeling some second-hand embarrassment from it. She eyed Goose again, still getting her bearings on the fact that the cat was more than he seemed. "It is okay Maria. I understand. I was distracted anyway." She paused. "I wonder if Tempest had any luck with my laptop. I'm going to go check. Let me know if you need anything." She stepped out of the lab behind Maria and made her way to Tempest's room.

She made a mental note to brief Tinely on the postcard as soon as she found out what Tempest had figured out. This was not a good time for secrets. Her stomach twisted at the thought of yet more HYDRA agents being in their midst. A positive thought did pass through her mind though and that was if they were sending in new HYDRA agents it was likely no one had gotten through their screening and they were currently HYDRA free. She wouldn't rely on that possibility but it was comforting.

At Tempest's room, she knocked and waited for permission to enter. She nodded at McCormick as she passed him and then turned to Tempest, "Any luck?"

Was Reed suffering from a bout of amnesia? They had all been fully briefed. She frowned slightly, but then Abercrombie was being weird too. What had gotten into them? Niah visibly flinched with Mystique slapped Abercrombie. She didn't think that Abercrombie deserved a slap. Niah knew that her word wouldn't help Abercrombie at this time. Mystique outranked her, it simply wasn't her place to say anything. Hell, the girl was powerful for an Inhuman and had clawed her way into the originally mutant only team. If Abercrombie had been a mutant instead of Inhuman she would have been begged to be part of the team considering her power.

She resisted an urge to look at her cell phone again and soak in the image of her sister. It was like some part of her brain feared she would never see her again, a fear easily placed on the current mission being so dangerous. Instead, she turned her attention to Novikova, Niah liked her plan the best. It seemed the most gentle. "That seems like a good approach. I agree we should definitely be going through the young Banner. If we bring him in unwillingly he may not cooperate. We do not know how trained he is. Giving him a reason to cooperate would be ideal." She flicked through the dossier she had. Would her power of psychometry be handy in trying to find something to leverage against them? "I can also see if I can find some information we can leverage against them." She held up a gloved hand and wiggled her fingers.

Niah glanced at her phone, pretending to check the time, instead, she took a few extra seconds than needed to look at her lock screen. A picture of herself with her sister Dalisay. Easily her best friend. The picture had been taken their younger brother at a fair and Dalisay was laughing so hard tears were streaming down her face. It caused a small smile to spread. It had been such a wonderful day. She pocketed her phone and glanced at the other Red Guard members.

Novikova was asking Maria how she was doing. A completely reasonable question considering their mission. Niah was not intending to get anywhere within punching range of The Hulk. Sure, Bruce Banner was fascinating, but that monster terrified her. She wasn't a fighter, well no more than what she had to be. While Niah was reasonably concerned with the mission she also knew she had earned her spot there. Agent Howlett wasn't helping with the nerves that were starting to creep into her stomach. If he had an issue with being hit by The Hulk... She let the thought trail off. She couldn't let that get in the way of what needed to be done.

Niah had drawn her ICER as a reaction when Tinley had announced that the two new agents, that Niah hadn't even seen before this very moment, were HYDRA agents. Her heart raced and she could hear it in her ears. But as she went to aim at Agent Wu the cat(?) sprouted tentacles and whipped the man around like a rag doll. She blinked, returned her ICER to its holster.

She stepped over to Maria who was starting to wake up. "You okay? Probably a good idea to have Bonnie take a close look at the pair of you and make sure you didn't sustain any serious damage. Can you hear me okay at least?" Sure, Niah wanted to question Maria's motivations for leaving the base like that, but she knew Tinely would take care of any of the yelling that needed to be done so Niah took a caring approach. Maria was technically a friend, though it was usually just from jogging that they hung out.
Sumi heard the noises of the fountain before they saw it. Turning the corner she saw the backs of Katalina and Christopher. Kade and his group were also just walking up to the fountain. They had an extra person with them, who seemed to be singing with Alexander. She frowned and glanced at Astrid. "They picked someone up." She said it confused and then hurried to meet the group at the fountain. "What all did you find out?" But she gave another glance to the stranger in their midst.

Kade spoke first. "We went to the tavern and found an old friend of Alexander's." Sumi nodded and then gave him a half smile.

"How long have you been here?" She asked him.

"Not a full year yet," Wash told her. Sumi nodded.

"Well you won't be able to leave, but you might be able to help us." She turned to Katalina and Christopher, "Did you two have any better luck? The guards wouldn't budge so there isn't a way to get in through the front."

Tempest's announcement that the purifiers were dead was reassuring, though she knew there was going to be a lot of fall out from this. Someone was going to get into trouble and she hoped Tempest wouldn't bear too much of the brunt of that. They needed good agents and she was top notch. Niah wondered why Maria and Novikova had even left the playground. There were no active missions. She frowned the pair of them were going to get into trouble, and they hadn't gained anything from it. As far as Niah could tell nothing good had come from their actions, well she conceded a bit mentally there were a few fewer purifiers in the world.

Niah watched as Flynn left the playground and then just moments later came back with the two agents. They were both unconscious "Need help?" It felt like a hollow question, of course, he didn't need help Agent Flynn was perfectly capable of carrying both unconscious women. She followed along with him to Biotech giving whatever help he would allow her.
