Zander pulled Glimmer of her sheath, " I wouldn't do that if I were you," The old man said in a weary voice. " I am the one who brought you all here, because I want to rid the R.A.C. of the beings who threaten it. Surely you can understand that as an R.A.C. agent yourself." Zander stiffened. " I'm not R.A.C. anymore, and there isn't any body in the agency I want to kill more than you."
Blake was in shock. Ace had been kidnapped. His girlfriend had just… caught on fire? He shook his head, too dazed and scared to try and put the entire situation together. Running into his room, Blake put on what the closet offered him. A bulletproof vest, a black sweatshirt, pants, and combat boots.
"It's alright, Ellis.." Peter replied sadly, sitting in the living space in defeat.
Ellis shifted to bury into his big brother's comforting hug, folding his glossy crow wings close against himself.
Dani telepathically communicated with Zander, "Where are you? I can feel that you're panicking." She put her hand on Kata's back, letting her healing powers do their work.
Macha found Dani, panting. “Ace. They took him again.”
Dani nodded. "We know. Kata and I are looking for him now. Are you okay? Any injuries I should know about? And what about the troops of R.A.C. agents? How many of them are there?"
Macha shrugged helplessly. “I’d say about a third of them are knocked out. Rhea just got everyone out, they’re at your apartment now.”
Rhea returned to the apartment with the 15th and final batch of escapees.
Peter looked up upon Rhea's return, rubbing his little brother's wings to comfort him.
"HE'S HERE! THAT OLD (person born out of wedlock) IS HERE." Zander responded as the old man seemed to grow in stature.
Kata felt Dani's healing powers wash over her, shuddered, now that her mind wasn't clouded by pain she could tell exactly how Zander was feeling. She stayed near Ace though, Zander wouldn't have wanted her near right now. She did feel bad though for whoever Zander was fighting though.
(I'll post a link on the old man's bio so that you know who he is. )
Blake came out of his room at the sound of commotion. "Peter? Whoa- okay lots of people." Blake's jaw dropped as he looked at Rhea with all the escapees.
Peter's eyes fell down to his brother, shame potent in his demeanor. He didn't respond to Blake.
"Frankie! Sky!" Blake folded his wings, concerned. He decided to began tending to the refugees. Skylar would know how to comfort Peter. Now the problem was that Blake had never cooked before, but that wasn't about to stop him from trying.
Ellies shifted to watch everybody else, staying snug in his big brother's arms.
*Ellis
( This is that old person born out of wedlock )
( Obidiah Pont )
Macha heard Zander tell solething, but just then another RAC officer came around the corner, bearing a real gun.
After being healed Kata followed the trail again to a room and stopped, this is where Ace was. She slowly peered through the window and saw a dark skinned girl standing near a device that held Ace.
Blake was confused. Very confused. He stared at the stove blankly, setting a glass bowl on the burner. He went to the fridge and shuffled around, looking for ingredients to cook something. "What even is this?" He took out a raw onion, squinting at it suspiciously. He tossed in the bowl from where he was standing, missed, and then picked it up off the floor and placed it in the bowl while grumbling to himself.
Ellis quietly shifted off his brother's lap to explore the place.
Blake caught sight of a small boy with wings. He was very scrawny so Blake grabbed a bag of chips out of the cabinet. "Hey, kid." Blake called out gruffly, holding out the chips.
Zander took a step back, as the man who had seemed like a twig before grew larger still. He was already at least 13 feet and still growing. Scowling Zander pulled back his arm, forming a fireball, and flinging it at the giants pasty face.
The RAC officer shot at her and Dani, but they dodged, Macha sending a flurry of bullets his way. She missed, and he stepped closer. Macha refuses to back down. “What do you want?”, she called to the officer.
Dani grabbed Macha's arm and pulled her aside, the bullet barely missing her. She locked eyes with the guy and he collapsed. "That should keep him out for awhile. Let's go. I can hear others around the corner."
Something was niggling at Macha. She’d seen that officer somewhere. “You go.”, she told Dani. I need to check something.”
Dani nodded. "Macha be careful. Please. I can't loose someone else on my birthday." Then she followed Kata. ZANDER WHERE ARE YOU! She shouted telepathically.
