Home Sweet Home

Postby Faultline » Thu Oct 06, 2011 11:48 am

Having called a truce for now Faultline leads the group through the city, flanked by Legion, 2 of who each carry Will, Chthonia and the Mockery. Eventually the group comes up to a large but mostly inconspicuous townhouse. Taking them inside she takes them into the living room of the tastefully furnished home.

"If you care for some tea Legion will be along with a pot soon. If you don't mind then please wait here while I fix everyone up." She says while the Legions carrying the three move further into the house.

Isabel sat down on a sofa, and then stood up again, looking creeped out.

"Please tell me that's not a Legion too..." John said with a look of disgust.

A Legion came in, surprisingly well-dressed, with a platter with cups of tea on it, bowing, her arm never moving, to keep the platter balanced.

"Is there something you would prefer?" the Legion asked, staring unblinkingly.

Renko took a cup of tea and stared at it from above and below.

"This is all very strange..." Renko muttered gauntlet glowing slightly as he gently tested his powers on the cup.

From the rear of the townhouse, a sharp shriek sounded.

Melody stood with her arms crossed, looking some mixture of pissed off and uncomfortable, her entire shoulder and neck area stained with dried blood.

Sara head snaps towards the shriek. It obviously wasn't Will (or so she tells herself) but it doesn't make her feel any better about him being dragged off by a presumably insane version of herself.

Sara shudders at the creepy version of her husband. This was somehow even worse than the one that tried to kill her.

"And where did she take Will anyway? I don't know what she's done with these ones but I don't like it..."

"Just a bit," Renko said placing the tea back on the tray and grabbing a new cup. "Just testing something."

Sara stares at Cap for a moment. She'd pale, but she's already trying her best to look like Victoria.

bear walked up to one of the legions, a grim expression on her face.

"Take us to your mistress. Now."

bear nodded, sighing.

She then pulled out a fire sphere, jamming it into the legions mouth before diving and activating the ball, engulfing the upper torso of the puppet in flames.

"Go! now!" Bear yelled, pulling out two more spheres and heading for the nearest door.
