Niah took the clothing from Oliver. She removed her glove and considering she had just been touching a severed head she was glad she wore those. Her bare fingers came into contact with the cloth. It was odd. There wasn't much history. It was like the shirt had only existed for a few hours. Clothing had all sorts of memories usually. People who had made it, the store, so on. But this shirt just gave her one horrifying image. Niah didn't know how she contained the scream, but she dropped the shirt like it was on fire, and pulled her glove back on quickly. If she hadn't been afraid before she was now.

The power going out did not help. Even with her ability with Blindsense, she didn't care to be in the dark in a hospital. Especially this one. Out on the edges of her sense, she felt something huge, fast, and terrifying. It was the same thing she had seen when she touched the shirt. A massive bear. If she hadn't seen it in the vision she wouldn't be as afraid. But the fear gripped her tightly. She blindly grabbed Oliver's arm and dragged him away from the bear. She was running, dragging him behind her. "It is a murder bear, it is behind everything. I don't know how, but that shirt didn't exist more than an hour ago, and all it gave me was a giant murder bear. Now said murder bear is stalking us in this hospital." Thankfully Niah didn't need to see to lead them running at her full speed, she'd sense anything that was in their path before it could trip her...or bite her in half.

Matt had started to aim at the woman on Cass's neck when Cass reached up and literally broke the girl's neck. He was surprised and had a feeling it was a case of Cass misjudging considering she looked as surprised as he was. With her out of the way that left the girl with the metal arm. Since Kwassi was occupied with Bonnie and the other guy was unconscious. He shrugged and took aim again. The first hit the girl's robot arm. The second hit her fleshy arm.

Matt observed her for a moment judging if the ICER would take or if the girl would be able to keep on her feet. She was swaying a bit sitting on the ground from her earlier fall. He guessed she could take another ICER and not die since he had no intention of killing her. He took the third shot, but just as she did her movement took her out of the line of the shot. Well hopefully the ICER bullet that had hit her would take her down.

"I'm sixteen. So I'm a teen." Andy said. "Netflix is cool. My parents had it. I usually used it to watch boxing movies with my dad, or B movies with my mom." She liked both. "B movies are bad movies, like low budget films that are so bad they are funny." At this point she figured Zarina had no idea about much of anything. She might as well explain the odd terms when they came up before Zarina got irritated that she didn't know what something was. Not that anyone knew what she knew or didn't know.

Ew. The weird guy was vomiting now. Andy knew it wasn't really the guy's fault since he was infected with M-Pox. She just hoped it wasn't still commutable. She looked at Callie as she came in and asked what was going on. "We are just clearing the area that got trashed by Mr.I'm-too-cool-so-I-fly. Casper was talking to himself about Princess Diaries, then he vomitted."

"I'll take the W on this and not play it ever again." Ed sat on the couch and closed his eyes "I'd also need something of Loki's. Preferably hair or a nail, even better some of his blood. But if the gameboard is around, maybe one of us can follow his magic." He paused tilting his head thinking. Klara and Runa had been under Loki's magic.

The first thing was first though. He did a small shield spell in the air above everyone's head. His magic seemed to be working fine. He closed his eyes again and focused on Klara and Runa separating out their unique magic from Loki's It wasn't easy considering he was still suffering from blood loss. He found a thread of it, but it seemed to vanish. Like trying to hold water. He sighed. That wasn't going to work. He hoped Runa would be able to. "Well ball is in your court Runa. I don't think I can do it."



Rose Buckner

Rose raised an eyebrow as Hansel and Gretal spoke. Their story paralleled her own mother's in a way. Children lost in unforgiving woods. A shiver went down her spine, would children tell stories about what she did in her life? Would she become a fable? How did that all work? She shook her head to stop her mind from wandering. She could ask those questions after they had her mother safe in hand.

"Bouncing off Megan's questions. How many guards? What sort of training? Should we expect magic users among them? How many on our side? Not counting us. We have several ranged fighters, and I guess a novice magician, his boyfriend is a melee idiot." Rose hoped this wasn't the whole resistance. She didn't sit like the others. She was too nervous, which made her worry she'd not get enough sleep. At least she was used to sleeping weird hours, and often not enough hours since she tended to burn the candle at both ends with work at the bar and the restaurant. "And can I have a drink?" She was used to dive bars. This place didn't bother her that much.

Colby munched on his food. Thankful he had swiped it. No one had said anything about it. That was better than what had happened so far. Since as far as he could tell no one was going to let him live down the skeleton thing. He could say he wasn't the first to steal food if someone gave him shit but not Taylor.

Rose was talking and he glared at her when she called him an idiot, but she didn't seem to notice or if she did she didn't care. He was paying attention to Hansel and Gretel though. If he was going to be involved in a jailbreak (which was cool), then he wanted to know what he was up against too. He'd wait to take his turn with the map. "Is the sewer your only plan? No distraction?" Distraction was what sleight of hand was about. You had them looking where you wanted them to be looking and they wouldn't see the card change or the coin being palmed. If these guys didn't have a distraction planned, he'd have to see about making one himself. And he was very good at distractions.

The head stopped screaming. She could tell because just as she was going to let it go the vocal cords stopped vibrating. Even without her hearing though she sensed something else. The air was shifting around as someone walked toward them. She looked up and saw Fury. Her stomach twisted again, and her heartbeat rose. Odd that at this moment she was more freaked out by Fury being here than her sister's mutilated head. That probably had something to do with her fear from what felt like years ago now that Fury had been replaced with an LMD. Was that before or after Skrulls started invading?

Niah snapped off her power so she could hear. She had missed whatever it was he had said though. "Sir." She caught herself before calling him Director. "What are you doing here?" She glanced down at the head she had just been examining that now sat silent. "It isn't what it looks like. That's my sister. I think. Actually, I don't believe it is her. We came to the hospital here for Oliver, to visit his mother." She stopped herself before explaining more. He no longer was her boss, Hill was, even if she didn't agree with Hill's policies. Fury no longer had the clearance.

Matt didn't want to play fair. Taking out Captain America and his team was important. Required for them to move forward. He however didn't want to kill what looked like an actual child. He shook his head. Did Rogers seriously recruiter a teenager? That was the whole point of Hill's laws. To keep kids like her off the battlefield.

He raised the ICER he had on him for just such a situation, borrowed because he preferred more permanent damage. His first shot went wide, he hadn't missed a shot in ages. Not since the Moon at least. He took his next two shots quickly. Still missing the kid. The ICER's weight was different enough from his normal gun and if he was honest he really didn't want to shoot a kid, even with a non-lethal method such as the ICER.

Andy noticed that Arthur perked up a bit at the idea that monsters once killed weren't really dead. At least not forever. She wondered if he could forgive himself a little more for fighting the monsters knowing that. She smiled and finished her food. She stood up ready to head topdeck for the next part of their adventure. She paused though at her brother's question.

What happened to demi-gods when they died? Did they go to the pit? Would they be trapped in a nightmare of fighting creatures for the rest of time? Or did they get to stop existing? Andy hoped she'd be allowed to just stop having to fight. She looked at Leda expectantly. She had gotten used to Leda answering her questions back at camp when she helped clean the shrines with her. Andy had somehow never asked this question.

"Not bad Waverly." Emily nodded at Waverly impressed. And then went to examine the disappearing body. She let the plants go in her will and now there was a small garden of vined plants around where they had fought the pit scorpion. "Always check after you fight a monster. They often leave a trophy behind. Sometimes that trophy can mean the difference between life and death in the future."

Niah nodded at Prometheus' explanation. It made sense. He also tended to be on the human's side, considering his brush with fire. "Was there a reason that you assumed Atlas was involved? Other than his prior involvement in stuff? Like did you overhear them talking about him specifically?"

Emily found what she was looking for. The nasty-looking stinger from the pit scorpion. "You killed it. It is rightfully yours." She said and picked it up offering it to Waverly. Then started back toward the Hunter's camp. "Come on. We should let the others know we aren't dead." She paused in her step, "Before we do though I want to say something. I know you don't feel like you belong and that we are a military cult or something, but consider us family. We technically all are in a weird way. Pretty certain Nancy is my cousin. We don't think about it like that, even though our fathers are brothers. I don't know how your linage fits in, but you get it right? I've been to military school before, believe me, this place is not like that. I also have family back home that are basically in a cult. I don't fit in with what they view the world should be like and they hate me for that. To belong here you just have to prove you can fight, and follow orders in that fight. Nancy is the Preator because of the excellent leadership skills shown on the battlefield. You'll have to get her to tell you the story of them fighting the dragon, but she earned the place she's in.

Niah watched Marco out of the corner of her eye with interest. She had heard him mention his compact before but had never seen it in action. She smiled as Nancy joined them. "Just asking Prometheus some questions. Apparently, he heard that Camp Jupiter was going to be attacked so he was on his way to warn us. The story he tells seems legit enough and Marco is letting Alexandra know what's going on." Niah gave Nancy a quick update of what she had missed. "Oh, Emily ran after Waverly who dashed into the woods blindly. Hopefully, they are back soon. If not we'll probably have to go look for them." She added, then turned her attention back to Prometheus expectantly.

"What? I'm cool. I'm hip. I like things like music. Who doesn't like music?" Ed gave Guin a goofy grin. He was obviously making a joke, but he did still sound a little punch drunk from his own blood loss. "I think Guin has a point. The fire really was a bad idea. What are in the tomb of horrors?" He snorted and thought about how broken assassin vines were for their challenge rating.

Ed focused around Iris and reached into his pocket to touch the small shield emblem there. A bubble of orange light appeared around Iris and cut the vines around her. He shifted the shield into a soft bubble of air and when she hit the ground it was like landing on pillows. He was proud of himself for the idea.

Ed picked up the dice from the game board and rolled them. A one and a five came up. He looked into the center of the game board worried. As he watched the small Keratin Rhinocerous that was his and Annie's game piece moved onto the center of the board. His eyes went wide.



"Jumanji." He said with a tone of reverence most people reserve only for church. In the blink of an eye, the group was back in the living room. Still beaten and battered and now missing Runa and Klara. He sank into a couch and closed his eyes. Normally he felt elation at winning a game, for now, he only felt relief. He was concerned about Runa and Klara not being there anymore. They also had now probably lost their immunity Runa had given them.

Andy looked at the token that Zarina was showing her. It looked like it was a piece of red shaped metal. It didn't mean anything to her. "Weird. The old guy was Magneto. He basically is the leader of all the mutants that cause the most trouble. They hate normal people. I've never heard of Genosha." She shrugged. She never interacted with anyone who followed Magneto before, let alone the man himself, well before today. She thought about it, before yesterday. Since some of the people, today had been people from yesterday.

She set back to helping clean up. "I do not know what to make of that guy." She shook her head and spoke under her breath to Zarina and Kristina. He had been startled by something, supposedly the Ben person, and fallen out of his chair. Her past experiences told her to avoid people who talked to themselves like this guy did. But it wasn't her group running the joint. She was just passing through to somewhere warmer.

"Oh my shields are gone." He frowned. His concentration had wanned and he hadn't realized it. He started to reach into his pocket but before he could start casting the monkeys were gone.

Ed gave a wry smile as the monkeys were finally defeated. "You should have played I'm a believer. It's by the Monkees that'd have been funny." He says toward Guin. That was the only Monkeey song he could even think of. He hurt, a lot, and worse he was still pretty dizzy. He looked over at Klara, had she helped Mary?

He saw Bethany roll the dice, and was going to ask her to read the riddle. He liked guessing. But there was no need for her to read it because the consequences of the roll started appearing. As it did he really hopped that Mary was feeling better. "This is something fire might work on Iris. However, that might be better for Mary to try to control before you light it on fire. I cannot imagine flinging tentalces of fire would be a good idea."

"Sorry just thinking of all the ways this can go wrong." Niah explained and put the armor on. It took a moment. Once that was finished she put the climbing gear over it. Together it was a little awkward of a fit, but at least she knew with the armor on if she fell she'd be less likely to end up as jam on the ground below.

"Alright, let's get this over with." She said, and started toward Mount Rushmore. The cliff was huge. She tried to imagine what it had looked like before it had been defaced by the white people who stole this land. "I wish I could have seen it before it was this." She waved her hand at it. "Do you think the dragon has been here since before white people made this a road sideshow? Or did it move in after? Maybe they woke it up?" She realized she didn't know how long dragons lived or how long ago Mount Rushmore had been made. That would have to be looked up later. It didn't change what needed to be done now. Once the others were ready and hooked up to her she started to climb.
