Kage I M: Ibex and Eclipse (Ind)
Kage quickly came upon the group of Ibex agents. She had crashed their vehical, and now she was hunting them as they were on foot. She didn't make a single sound as she landed behind them. A katana sliced through the last guy's throat. Kage held the katana in one hand and her other hand had clamped over the now dead man's mouth. Before anyone else could hear his body drop Kage had sliced the razor sharp japanese sword through the two men in front of her. She let out a growl as she felt a bullet tear through her side, and another one hit her shoulder. The man's gun was sliced in half in a matter of moments, but that last guy was spared and kept alive... for now. The katana in her hands changed instantly and morphed into a long chain with a blade on the end. She jumped and hit the ground, beside the man, pivoting so she was beside him. The chain wrapped around the man's neck, Kage catching the blade before it slammed into the side of his head. She kicked the man's joints behind his knees, causing him to fall to his knees. She pulled the chain tighter, causing panic from the soldier. "Tell me what I need to know and maybe I'll spare you." She hissed, putting on leg on the man's lower back, pushing and cusing him to start to be choked. The guy struggled and nodded his head. Yes, she had chosen the youngest one in the group, the one that had looked like he was the least loyal and had the most life potential left. She loosened the chains for a moment and let him breathe, catching his breath so he could speak and tell her what she needed to know. Kage walked back to the farm house. It had been about a day, maybe more, she didn't know. She had been bleeding, and occasionally still was from the few bullets she had taken. She hadn't bothered patching them, but she had taken out the bullets. She thought back to the agent she had interagated and killed. He had given her the information and she had let him go, letting him think he was going to live, giving him hope for his reward. She had given him a painless death, quick before he knew what was happening. She was covered with blood, the majority of it was hers, but she also had been splattered with some from the others she had killed. She leaned against a tree, debating whether she should go inside. She was filthy, she didn't want Eclipse to see her like that. She was soft towards her child, she wanted to protect him from the harsh truth of the reality they lived in. She didn't want him to feel the pain that she felt. She slid down the tree and let out a groan, feeling her wounds more than she had been as she was travling. She hadn't slept, no time to sleep. It was all catching up to her, and she was fading. No, not dying, just fading into the void of sleep to rest her aching body. |

Night | M: Kage Night finally got Eclipse down, the boy seeming to know that Kage had gone somewhere dangerous. Night was pacing outside the farmhouse when he felt the familiar wash of Kage's powers come into range. It seemed that she was close by. Night quickly did a scan around the farmhouse before pinpointing her at a tree near the barn. Making his way down there, he froze as he saw her leaning on a tree. Not moving.
Night hurried over, not sure what to do before slowly backing up. He couldn't heal her, he couldn't do that yet. Making a quick decision, he bolted inside before feeling Flame's powers wash over him. She stepped out of her room a moment later, putting a finger to her mouth. Right, Ghost Lily was asleep. Night motioned towards the door with a panicked hand and Flame started towards him. He walked outside before running back towards where he left Kage. Flame followed before spotting her, understanding immediately. "Sit down and watch. You need to learn how to use my powers," Flame said and Night opened his mouth to argue before going to sit down nearby.
He felt an energy thread pull in him before he felt what Flame was doing. She reached out through the energy threads and started to heal Kage, pulling the bullets out of her as her skin rejected them and healed up once they were out. Once Flame was finished, she released the thread that allowed him to see what she was doing. That was when he realized he could feel what Flame was still doing through the energy threads. That little insight allowed him to be able to control what he could feel. "Thank you Flame," he said quietly and the woman smiled before starting back to the farmhouse. Night sat beside Kage, waiting for her to wake up. |

Kage I M: Night
Kage awoke a small while later. She let out a groan as she streched, slowly opening her eyes. Well, her wounds didn't hurt as much, but she didn't know what that was all about. She yawned, looking around tiredly. She saw Night beside her now and she grinned, scooting over and resting against his chest. "I'm back safe and sound, just for you." She murmured, smiling. "I got the information we needed." She added, letting out a happy humming noise. Her body still ached slightly from her scramble with Ibex. Plus she wsa caked in blood, but she didn't care one bit. She was excited to see Eclipse, but she knew he was probably asleep, or playing with Rapier. She would never have let anyone take her away from Eclipse or Night, they were the only people in the world that she really loved. She closed her eyes again, taking a deep breath in. |

Jac I M: Leonas
Jac had decided to follow her savior. Murder or not, she didn't want to let the only kind person in her life slip away so easily. She had a slight limp and her hand was clamped over her ribs. She was in pain, but she didn't care. She was used to being in pain, her stealing streak had earned her plenty of wounds. She watched him go into a hotel and she yearned to follow, but decided to stay back and huddle outside. She sat down with her back against the wall next to the doors and opened the bag of food, quickly taking out some chips and chowing down on them as she was starved. She shivered slightly, wishing it was warmer and she was in a hotel room. |

Zaphara Mentions: Jackson, Shi, Cero, and Shadow Zaphara hugs him back, not minding the tears that was on her skin. She pulls away after a minute or two, ruffling his hair and stood up. "Go inside and eat, Jacky. You have children to live for. Remember?" Giving a playful flick of his forehead-trying to brighten up their moods. Hating the feeling of sadness. That's when she jumps off the roof, looking back up to where Jackson is at. "Do you need help? Don't want the damsel in distress to twist her lovely ankles." Giving him a mocking bow, laughing quietly before leaving to search for Cero. Coming across the man, who's with Shi and Shadow. She walks over to them, giving a reassuring touch to Shi's shoulder before approaching her boyfriend. "If people are planning on raiding the Ibex facility, then I have full rights to call you idiots." Shaking her head, "Have you seen what they've cooked up now? Mutated super-soldiers!" Throwing her arms up in the air, she thins her lips and pulls out a folded sheet of paper from her pocket. Passing it to Cero, "It's the information we need. The location and all. I may have stumbled across it it I, ahem, sliced Sephtis's head off. He was the one that sold off our location." Going over, sitting down on the grass and her face paled. "He let us have an opportunity to see what Ibex made, which costed Glory's life. From what I learned from the super-soldiers is that they were a work in progress. Rusty, for better words. If we stayed hidden for long, then we wouldn't know about the super soldiers. About Ibex's plan." She nods her head, her eyes turning back to farmhouse. "We now know what we're up against and expect to happen in the Ibex facility. We won't run blindly in there and get ambushed." |

Leonas Mentions: Jac Leonas could feel the presence of that woman waiting outside of his room. He couldn't suppress his growl of irritation, and he didn't bother to. Storming outside, locking eyes with the hungry woman. "Why the Hell are you following me?" He kept his voice low, then he pulls her inside. Locking the door after them, sighing and he places both hands on his hips. "I'm a dangerous man. I don't need a lost puppy dog following me around." His brows falters, turning into a stern frown. "You'll only get in the way of my plan." |

Jac I M: Leonas
Jac froze when the man suddenly appeared. When he locked eyes with her she shuddered, eyes waning to break his stare, but he was powerless. She was suddenly pulled inside his room, the door being locked behind him. She looked up at him with her scared green eyes. "I-I just wanted t-to b-be close t-to someone wh-who didn't h-hurt me..." She mumbled brokenly, looking down at the ground when he looked at her sternly. "Y-you'tr nice to m-me... I-I'm sorry..." She shivered and looked very scared and unsure, not sure what she was doing or why she was there. She still felt safer in that moment in comparison to other moments, especally when she was around people who terrified her. |

Jackson I M: Jericho and kids.
Jackson sighed, walking into the mansion. He didn't feel much better, but he was already missing Zaph's company. He didn't go towards the kitchen to get food like he should, he walked into the living room instead. He noticed another guy and he vaugley remembered him. Jericho, ya. He had lost someone to Ibex hadn't he. Oh ya, that clingy little girlfriend he had.
"Oh... hey." Jackson said awkwardly to Jericho. He walked over, deciding to check up on the man as he might be stressing over his girlfriend. Jackson would be stressed if Glory had been caught... gosh he wished she had just been caught... then she'd probably still be alive. He did his best to shift his mind to another subject, he didn't feel like crying in front of this guy. |

Jericho: Mentions: Jackson "Hey." Jericho said in response, picking up a few makeshift targets as he slowly made his way outside. He knew that he needed to keep his mind off of Ero and the possibility that she was pregnant, and practicing his aim with what he was able to find in the attic of the barn would be just what he needed to keep his mind away. But... there was something in his mind that was telling him that Jackson was dealing with something, but Jericho wasn't going to ask unless he brought it up first. |

Jackson I M: Jericho and kids.
Jackson followed Jericho, wanting to check up on the man. He was worried for him that something was going to happen to those in Ibex. How could something not? They were in Ibex after all.
"Are you doing alright with.., with.... y'know." He asked Jericho, not wanting to go into detail because he new now painful it would be. He had experienced the same pain many a time, but it still didn't compare to loosing the love of his life as she died in his arms. He ran a hand through his hair, looking like a wreck and now looking sad again. He would do anything to have her back, not that that fixed anything. He felt arms around him and he looked to see Dia. He gave her a quick hug, but was surprised when Aztec was given to him. Dia dashed off, and Jackson was left holding Aztec, and he had no clue why. The boy watched where Dia had gone and Jackson sighed. He rubbed his son's back, trying to refocus on Jericho so he wouldn't get more upset by the thoughts of Glory that Aztec brought up. Why did he have to look like her so much? He clutched the boy tighter, showing a little bit of his pain on his face. |
