Nina had been woken up when Everett had come by and summoned Dags. She rolled over a bit and sighed and then sat up. She looked over at the mirror in the room and then herself. She looked like she had seen a ghost still, her eyes haunted a bit.

She reached over for her bag and pulled out her hairbrush and then paused. The new dress from Everett was right on top, taunting her a bit. It was a lovely dress, but was it appropriate for what what happening? She shrugged and tugged off her grungy clothing and then tugged on the dress and looked a herself in the mirror. The dress was perfect. It clung in the right places, and looked better than any of her other clothing.

As she was trying to figure out what to do with her hair, her phone buzzed. She saw a text from Everett and sighed. "Be down in a moment." She texted back and tossed her phone on the bed. She decided to tug her hair up into a loose bun, with some curls hanging around her face. She tucked her phone away, and headed downstairs.

As Nina was heading downstairs, her phone buzzed once again. When she pulled it back out, she found that she had a text from Ashton.

A bunch of shit went down today huh? Is the party still on despite the..thing? Not really in a party mood, but don't want to be alone either.

Ashton

She paused for a moment and realized that she was not the only one suffering from what had happened. "Hey, yeah. So much shit, but the party is still on and I'm there. Petyr and I are crashing at the Lodge tonight b/c dad out of town and don't wanna be in house alone. However, I'd love to see you at the party. Don't want to be alone either." She texted back and then paused. Her phone photo background made her sad, especially today. She flipped through the photos and found one of her and Ash from the past summer and smiled a bit.

Ashton had bid goodbye to Jay after they had magically teleported back to Ash's home. Thankfully, Jay had been able to calm Ashton down a bit, so there was no danger of him electrocuting everyone... For now, at least. He quickly checked his phone when it buzzed, managing a hint of a smile at Nina's prompt reply. So the party was still happening, eh? That was a ballsy move on Everett's part--would parents even allow their children to attend?

Be right there then, I guess.

Ashton

After he had replied to Nina, Ashton climbed into his car to head over to Everett's place.

Nina felt her phone buzz and she flipped over to messages and saw the text from Ash and managed a smile. "See you soon then." She stepped outside and sat down on one of the benched of the porch of the Wilcox Lodge, waiting for Ash to arrive. It would have been rude not to be there to greet him.

A few minutes later, Ashton's car pulled up to the lodge. Before jumping out of his car, Ashton took a moment or two to compose himself before facing all of the party goers. He didn't look like complete hell, did he? The last thing he needed right now was to suddenly become Zeus and blast everyone with lightning. He was a bit tired right now, so that was a good sign.

He heaved a sigh as he swung his car door open. He lifted a hand in greeting to Nina as he sauntered over to her. "Hey Nina. You doing okay?"

Nina walked over and hugged Ash tightly. "I could be doing better. But what about you? You didn't... oh you did, didn't you? Oh Ash, I'm sorry." Nina knew that Ash was probably going through hell right now, considering what had happened a few years ago. "I'm here for you Ash."

Ashton wasn't the type to shed tears very easily or openly in front of other people. But when Nina said that she was here for him, something inside him snapped. While no tears escaped his eyes--thankfully--he gave a shuddering breath as he buried his face in Nina's hair. His arms tightened around the shorter girl.

"Thanks Nina." There were so many words that Ashton wanted to say, so many emotions that he wanted to display but he didn't. There was no point in it now. The only one that mattered currently was his gratitude to his friend.

Nina's own grasp tightened around Ash as she heard his shuddering breath and felt him bury his head in her hair. She ran a hand along his back, in a comforting gesture. No where in her thoughts were how this might look to others, just right then and there, she wanted to be there for her friend. "Anytime Ash. You know I care about you, right?"

After a few moments of silence, Ashton loosened his grip around Nina and leaned back. There was now a half smile upon his face. It was a little faint and strained, but it was there nonetheless. He poked Nina's forehead while saying, "Wow Nina. Tell me something I don't know."

There was another pause. "In all seriousness... Yeah, I do. And I care about you too."

Nina blushed a bit and rubbed her forehead a little where he had poked and looked up at him. "I know. Thanks. So, how are you holding up? Anything new I should know about besides the obvious?" She pulled back a little bit, a look of curiosity on her face.

Ashton hesitated for a moment. Why yes, there was something new but he didn't really want to make a scene. He gave a glance around and saw that more people were beginning to arrive at the party. He nodded to Nina and grabbed her hand. "Let's go somewhere secluded first, I don't want to make a scene."

He lead Nina over a little ways away, where they would be obscured by trees. After giving one more glance to make sure that there wasn't many people around, he released her hand and backed away from her a little. "Guess you're not the only one with cool powers." He said with a slight smirk. He held his right hand at around shoulder height before concentrating his energy and emotion to his hand. A few moments later, Ashton's hand crackled with electricity.

"Woah... you're like Verona's personal Zeus. That's really cool Ash. I can't generate my power, so I'll admit I'm a little envious. May I ask how you found out?" Nina looked at Ash's hand in amazement.

Ashton gave a slight grimace at her question. "I uh.. May have accidentally destroyed a tree." He closed his hand and his eyes and took a deep breath. The electricity disappeared, and a slight headache took its place. He opened his eyes and grinned. "Zeus, eh? That sounds both amazing and horrifying."

"Oh, but you probably don't want to touch me for a little while. I'll probably shock you."

"I mean more with the powers than personality. As for accidentally destroying a tree, might have done that a little myself yesterday." Nina looked a little sheepish at that. "Was trying to see what I could do. But I don't quite have control of my power yet." She noticed the electricity disappear and nodded. "Noted. After you power done, no touching for a bit." Nina reached for the lighter she had stolen from her father and flipped it over in her hand a bit.

"This is insane, Nina." Ashton chuckled, "We have superpowers. And we're talking about them like it's normal. Controlling fire has got to be the coolest thing ever."

"You're telling me. But, I guess it is normal now. As for it being the coolest thing ever, I don't know about that. I mean, I burnt breakfast to a crisp, nearly burnt down a forest, and I gotta make sure I keep my emotions in check... not that it has been easy lately. I mean, everything is so confusing right now. I thought things were getting better but, bam, today happened and I... I just want to get the hell out of this town Ash. I can't do it... not again." Nina could feel the tears welling up in her eyes again. She was trying hard not to think about it, but well, her she was, doing just that.

Ashton instinctively moved closer to her to throw his arm around her, but he paused. He wasn't completely sure that he was completely electricity free. After awkwardly lowering his hand, he crouched down a bit to peer into Nina's face.

"I know," Ashton said quietly, "And I wish that I could tell you to run away from here and never look back... But I can't. I hate this town and I don't want to stay either, but I dunno. I don't think that leaving right now isn't going to help."

Ashton ran his hand through his hair with a frustrated sigh. "Sorry Nina. I don't know what I'm saying, and I don't know what to tell you except... I know how you feel."

"No, you're probably right. Leaving won't really help, just... I don't know anymore. I'm sorry Ash. I know I probably shouldn't dump this on you right now, but I got the feeling you'd understand. Seems I was right." She flipped the lighter over in her hand again. "I just wish I could go back a few days, y'know, to when everything made sense?"

"Everything has changed so much in like the past two days." Ashton murmured in agreement. "We're all a little on edge. But like all cheesy movie quotes and standard cliche statements, I guess we have to make the best of it. I wish we didn't."

Nina nodded, and tucked the lighter away. "I guess so. Should we go join the others? I'm sure at least Petyr will notice I'm not there... but honestly, this just feels wrong. Everett must have something lose in his head to have this party still going on despite everything."

Ashton gave a grimace. "A party on the night someone was murdered... Yeah, it's pretty twisted. But at least it'll take our minds off of it? I'm sure he doesn't mean any harm. But yeah, we should go back. I wonder how many people are gong to show up?"

Ashton started heading over to the lodge, trying to at least attempt to imitate the usual confidence he had in his step. Nina was right. This party did feel wrong.

"You're right. At least something to keep our minds off of things." Nina sighed and headed back to the lodge with Ash, keeping a bit quiet. Her mind was racing through a thousand other thoughts, but one stuck with her. "I'm keeping my damn lighter with me tonight."

The Mundane [Small-Town Teenage Superheroes]

I figure Petyr and Nina might live in New Town, while Kata and her family live in Hillside.

The Mundane [Small-Town Teenage Superheroes]

Might see about a twin collab, talking about what is going on, but we will see. *shrugs* Otherwise hmmm well maybe more fluff with Ali and Kata.

Kata kept Alicia close as they sat together with Scout in the gym. Her mind was swirling with a thousand thoughts as the questions just kept coming. She frowned a bit and kissed Ali's forehead. "I was under the impression that they had caught the person responsible for the killings before... otherwise why would we have such a huge gap between them? It could be a copycat, the killings were... very well documented." Kata shivered a bit, remembering all the clippings that were at the diner. She preferred never eating there again, but she knew it still had the articles everywhere.

She then turned to Ali. "I'll be fine, I'm just scared because I got more to lose now then I did a few years ago if this continues... As for why today, I mean the whole town turned out for the memorial... perfect alibi maybe? Or just a way to mock us... I don't know." She then looked at Mrs. Smith and offered a half smile. "Thank you for the water Mrs. Smith. It is appreciated. I'm holding up fine, I guess."

Alicia smiled softly as Katalina kissed her on the forehead and sighed softly as she tried to relax, looking around the auditorium then looked at Kat. "Well we have powers now to defend ourselves with." Alicia whispered as her mother headed towards the entrance to see if other students or staff needed anything. Alicia gently squeezed Kat's hand lovingly, before leaning back into her girlfriend.

"I'd rather not think about this now, its to much to handle right now.." Alicia said quietly as her mother came back and sat across from her daughter, Kat and Scout. "Your welcome Katalina. If you two need to talk I'm here for the two of you."

"Thank you again Mrs. Smith." Kata continued to hold Alicia's hand gently, giving it a squeeze. Soon her own parents returned and sat down next to Mrs. Smith.

"Good, you're all still here. The police pretty much want everyone to stay put, even thought they're sure there are a few that already left. However, we should stay for now." Molly pulled out a bottle of water and took a small swig. "How are you doing Alicia? How are you holding up?"

"No problem at all Katalina, thank you for watching over Ali for me." Mrs. Smith said as she looked up to see Katalina's parents coming over and sat down next to her, Alicia's mother taking a sip of her own water before setting it down onto the floor.

"I'm doing alright I guess, just never expected something like this to happen today of all days." Alicia managed to say, and groaned slightly when Kat's mother said they had to stay a bit longer due to the police getting statements from pretty much everyone who was at the scene.

"I know, not a fun prospect, but hopefully it will be quick." Molly said and looked at Kata and raised an eyebrow and then smiled. "You two seem close."

Kata blushed a bit at her mother's comment and took another swig of water. It didn't seem like the right time to tell her mother about her new girlfriend. "We'll talk later mom... but yeah... why it had to happen today... just makes it all the worse. Especially for those who are already suffering." She sighed a bit. She wasn't looking forward to being stuck in the gym for too much longer herself, but she was at least with Ali.

Alicia blushed deeply at Mrs. Hargraves comment, but didn't say anything either at that as she finished chugging down the rest of her bottle. She crushed it slightly and looked towards Kat she was glad she was right there next to her. "I hope this doesn't take up the rest of the day." Alicia said quietly to herself.

"You are are more then welcome to come over to our place after this is all over. We could help set something for Rachel's family." Mrs. Smith offered Katalina and her parents if they did want to come over and talk about what happened and do something nice for Rachel's family.

"We'll probably be keeping the shop closed anyways, so we'd like that. I'm sure Katalina won't argue. I doubt they're having that memorial at the lodge anyways. Don't know what that boy was thinking..." Molly trailed off, but Kata was only half paying attention.

"Sure, I'd love to come over. If Ali is alright with it?"

"Of course I'm fine with you coming over Kat." Alicia said looking towards her girlfriend and smiled. As she looked over she saw two police officers coming in and motioned for Alicia's mother to grab her statement of what she saw happened. Alicia wasn't sure if Everett was still planning on hosting the party tonight, she thought about going but after what happened she would rather stay at home.

About five minutes later Alicia's mother came back. "Its your turn hun, just tell the truth and what you saw." Alicia nodded slowly as she stood up looking down at Katalina once and smiled slightly. She walked over to tell the two Verona officers what she witnessed and if there was anything odd she saw before it all happened which she didn't and came back and sat down.

After Alicia gave her statement, both her parents and then her gave theirs. It was fairly consistent. Once Kata was done, she sat back down next to Ali and let out a sigh. "I think we can go now... I doubt we're having classes today after this."

"Would you like to ride to the Smith's with us hon, or with them, if they'll let you?" Molly asked, looking at her daughter.

"If Mrs. Smith is okay with it, I'd like to go to their house with them..."

"I have no issue with you riding back home with us hon." Mrs. Smith said as she stood up, Alicia looked over at Scout for a moment. "Ill see you later Scout." Alicia said and looked towards her girlfriend and held her hand.

Alicia walked behind her mother looking away as the police were going over the crime scene and like an episode out of Law and Order they were closing off the scene. Alicia's mother unlocked the car and Alicia quickly got into the back seat.

Kata took Ali's hand and nodded to Scout. "See you later." She then walked with Ali to the car, and got in the backseat with her and took her hand again and gave it a small squeeze. She wasn't sure what else to say for the moment, but she kept on holding Ali's hand, comforting both Ali and herself.

Cassie Anderson, Niah Bautista and Alex Mercede

Location: Directors Office
Time: 9~10 AM

---

When Cassie reached the director's office, she saw that Niah was already there. ”Hey Niah, good to see you again.” Niah returned the greeting with a bow as she was accustomed to do. She then plopped herself down in a chair and looked at the director. ”I’m guessing this is important if you’re pulling me off of re-training for this mission.”

The director looked over at Cassie and nodded. “I need two of my best agents on this, and Miss Bautista’s talents. I will inform you of your mission and the details once Mr. Mercede arrives.”

”Alright director.” Cassie pulled out her phone and texted Miss Page and Mr. Hearne to inform them of their cancelled re-training session, and then tucked her phone away and waited for Alex to show up.

”Seems I’ve got decent timing for once today then,” came Alex’s voice as he appeared in the doorway. Niah stood and gave him a small bow as he entered the room. The look on his face suggested he was upset about something, but he was hiding it well enough. ”What can the three of us do for you then, Ms Director?” he said as he sat down in the remaining chair.

The director raised her eyebrow as she looked over Alex. “Good to see you without those headphones Mr. Mercede. After your last mission, I do hope you will keep items like that out of the field. As for what the three of you can do for me, I obviously have a mission for you.”

”I think we figured that out. What sort of mission Director?”

“There are rumors circulating of a Shadow operative hunting in Colorado. Unfortunately, that is all we have. Rumors. We have a small group of psychics in Denver that are willing to help us. They are the ones that reported it to us. Cassie, I believe you know them well.” The director handed out three folders, one to each of them.

Niah took her folder far quicker than normal, and had it open to the page about the group of psychics in a matter of seconds. She gasped and looked up at the director wide eyed. “How much clearance do they have?” There was a note of excitement and trepidation her voice.

Cassie looked over at Niah. She then opened the file and realized why, and a small smile crossed her lips. “Why do you…”

”Enough that you can tell ‘em Niah. They helped me out on a mission that would have gone South if not for them about a year ago.” Cassie interjected. Tears of what could only be happiness welled up in Niah’s eyes, but were quickly wiped away.

“Thank you.” She gave Cassie a small sitting bow.

”Ahem” Alex said as he flipped through his own file, ”What I’m going to assume are personal matters aside, what sort of rumors are we talking about?”

“Missing persons, suspicious activity. I was discussing this yesterday with Miss Anderson, but Shadow has grown bolder. Their actions this week alone have left more bodies in their wake than ever. It use to be a few bodies every year, but between Arlington and New Mexico, I fear something bigger is planned. I do plan to talk to our… informant…” The director looked at Cassie, who just shrugged, “But I doubt they know what is going on. However, I’d rather be on alert here, and see what we can find in Denver. We have at least two missing persons that were reported with powers. Follow those leads first.”

”Which is why you want Miss Bautista on this, I’d assume?” The director nodded in response to Cassie’s question.

“Any other questions?”

“None from me Director. Though I may have more once we arrive in Colorado, but those questions can be answered there.” Niah, despite the severity of the situation, had a small smile on her face, one that was obviously being restrained.

”Sounds good to me. Ladies,” Alex said as he stood up, ”I’ll meet the two of you upstairs shortly. I need to pay a visit to the Rivenridges first. Anything else you need from me, Director?”

“You may go. I have already booked you three on a flight out to Denver this afternoon. Ah, if you could also pass a message along to the Rivenridges for me please? I’d like to talk to them about some weapon designs that might make everyone’s life here a little easier.”

”I’ll be sure to mention it. Good day.” And with that, he was away.

”Director… there is one thing. The new policy?”

“Ah yes. Miss Bautista. I would kindly encourage you to stop by the tech department and pick up a stun gun or something of that sort. I want all field agents to have some sort of weapon on their person from now on.”

“Yes Director.” The smile from Niah’s face disappeared and she paled a little at the idea, but after a deep breath. “At least it’s just a stun gun.”

“My hope is that you won’t have to use it Miss Bautista, but given recent events, I just want to make sure all my agents have a way of protecting themselves. If there is nothing else, you are dismissed. Enjoy Denver.”

”Thank you Director.” Cassie stood up and tucked the file under her arm and looked at Niah. ”Excited?” Niah’s smile came back at the thought.

“Yes I am. I haven’t been back to Denver since...” She trailed off, but Cassie was well aware of what Niah was talking about.

”Well, should be fun then. And don’t worry, it will be fine.” Cassie looked over at Niah and offered her a smile. ”I’ll see you in a bit then. Need to pick up my bag.” She headed to the stairs and towards her office. It was mission time.

Petyr Jelen
Everett Wilcox

Location: Jelen Household
Interacting with: Each Other

Nina had been silent since her brother had started to direct her home after they had seen Rachel tied up to the statue like that. Flashes of what had happened to Jan streamed through her mind like a train wreck; awful but couldn’t look away from it. She barely noticed that Everett had tugged her away from her brother and had her get in the car.

It was only once they reached the house that Nina realized that she and her brother were not alone anymore, and no where near the school. She turned to look at Petyr and Everett, looking a little confused, but still had a sort of dead eyed air about her. ”Huh? Oh… uh… thanks for the ride Everett… um… sorry did you say something else?” She looked at her brother and frowned. Something was bothering him, and she could tell. Besides it starting to feel like a freezer next to him, his brows were furrowed. ”Bratr, co se děje (what’s up)?”

”It’s… it’s nothing. Just a passing concern, that’s all.” he responded, although the temperature told her otherwise. Nevertheless, his hand found its way to hers and grabbed onto it with a reassuring firmness. ”We’ll get through this sestra. I promise.”

By then they were rounding the corner near their house. As they pulled up, Everett suggested they come stay with him for a while. Petyr turned to her, as if deferring the question to her, but his face suggested he had reservations about the idea.

Nina turned to look at Everett. ”One moment, I think my brother and I need to talk for a moment before accepting that offer.” She slid out of the car and pulled her pack around and started digging around for her keys, silently cursing. After a few moments she found her keys and shoved them in the door and turned the lock and went to open the door, her hands shaking a bit.

“Fair enough, you two go on and I'll take Dags for a walk.” Everett said, hopping out of the truck. He made note to take the handgun with him, shoving it in the back of his waistband.

Everett was smart enough two things, that every cop in town was gonna be at the murder scene and that it wasn't technically illegal for him to have it with him. The latter was at best questionable.

Everett slapped the tail gate and called for his beloved companion. He was gonna wait to make sure they got into the hose before walking anywhere. Although he did get a giggle when Dags started howling. Knowing that there was siren going off somewhere.

Not long after, Petyr was closing the door behind them. As soon as it was closed and locked, he turned and pulled his sister into a hug. Only when her shaking had stopped for a moment did her let her go and start to talk. ”So, what do you think? I’m not sure it’s the best idea, for a few reasons, but if you want to go stay with him I’ll go with it.”

”Otec is out of town, and while I know you’d protect me, I think it would be better if we went to the lodge. Our house isn’t what I would call the safest of places… but talk to me. I can tell you're hiding something, you lied to me in the car.” Nina only stepped back a bit and looked up at her brother.

”Well…” Petyr looked like he was struggling to find words. ”I’m not sure I trust Everett. Not that I think he’s hiding something, or that he’s a bad guy, or anything like that. But, I mean…” he stopped for a moment and tried to pick out his thoughts again. ”Between the beer from yesterday, the cutting class, and now after watching him almost rip you away from me and into his truck with a gun in his hand and that look he had about him… He’s a loose cannon, Nina. And I’m not entirely sure it’s the best idea to hang around him. If he went off like that after someone he didn’t even know got killed, who knows what he might do if something tries to hit closer to home? Not to mention you said he saw the damn eclipse…”

Nina bit her lip and started tugging at her piercings, looking more at the floor now. ”He’s just… I’m sure it’s just because he doesn’t wanna lose anyone else. I mean, you saw it too… she was strung up just like Janice. I’m sure if got the chance to know him... “ She looked up at Petyr and realized her words were not making anything better. She tugged more at her ear and sighed. ”You do what you want… I’m going to pack.”

Petyr sighed shortly after. ”Oh come on now, that’s hardly fair!” he said half-jokingly. ”I’m not about to let you out of my sight here. I’ll get the travel bags out of the garage, just let me leave a note for dad first. God knows he’ll rush home as soon as they get wind of this at the camp.” He went to the kitchen to grab paper and a pen.

”I’ll be upstairs figuring out what to pack… not that it's hard given what we have.” Nina sighed and headed to her room. She started pulling the essentials out of her dresser and set them in a pile on her bed. She opened the closet and the new dress caught her eye. She sighed and put it on the bed as well. More of a just in case senario. She doubted the party was still happening, not that she minded that much.

She then darted out of her room and into her father’s room. Usually she and Petyr stayed out of it while he was away, but Nina wanted one thing from it. She pulled open a drawer and fished out a zippo lighter from it. She knew her father had quit smoking years ago, but still had a pack and lighter stashed away for cravings. Or a reminder. She wasn’t sure, but for the moment that wasn’t her intent. She flipped the lighter over in her hand, and then shoved it into one of her jacket pockets and zipped it closed.

She then went back to her room and pulled out a few other things and added it to the pile of clothing she had going on her bed, and sighed.

As soon as the door shut and Dags began howling. It was like a magic cue for the old man next door to come running out. Everett nudged Dags to stop howling but he didn't. Truth be told Everett didn't really care.

As the old man stepped off his porch, Everett's temper wanted to runaway. Maybe it was the day, or the events, or where he was that kept him from losing it on the old. “Old man, you tend your biscuits. Today is a very bad day to fuck with me.” His tone may have been a kitten harsher than intended, but it was nothing compared to the demonic sounds that was coming from Dags.

The old man stopped in his tracks, a two hundred pound wolf dog with his teeth showing will do that. “Dags, stop.” Everett said as he leaned against the truck. As Dags stopped the old man went inside.

Not long after, Nina and Petyr both stepped out the door with bags in hand. Petyr turned and locked the door behind them, and then joined Nina and Everett by the truck. ”Alright, shall we get going then?”

Nina sighed and hefted her bag into the back of the truck and then climbed into the cab. ”Looks like we’ll spend the night with you while dad’s out of town. Just don’t be surprised if he shows up at the lodge tomorrow. We left him a note.” She turned to look at Everett as she spoke.

“Fair enough. Dags jump.” Everett said slapping the side of the truck. As everyone got in the cab of the truck, Everett stated the truck. When everyone was inside Everett pulled off to the lodge. The ride was quiet if not filled with tension.

When they arrived Everett was the first to speak. “Welcome to the Lodge ladies and gentlemen. The party will start in a few hours, please take this time to relax and unwind.” Everett was the first one out of the truck, grabbing the bags after opening Nina’s door.

”So, question. Where are Petyr and I going to be staying? I can’t believe I didn’t ask that earlier.” Nina got out of the car and paused, waiting for her twin.

“We got a few guests bedrooms. Not all our clients want to be out in the bush for a week at a time. You two can sleep there. Dags likes you so he won't be too far away. Anybody gets close to the house, you'll know quickly.” Everett walked through the front door and up the stairs, dropping his guests bags off in front of the door.

Petyr looked at Nina, took a deep breath and then gestured toward the Wilcox residence. ”May as well make ourselves at home. After you, sestra.”

”Thank you bratr… and thank you Everett. We really do appreciate this.” Nina headed into the lodge and let out a sigh. She knew that the rest of the day was going to be awkward, but she was going to try to make the most of it. Or so she hoped.
