[IC] Outcasts Reborn (Private once filled)

[ScarlettWaters16]

Ice begins to twirl some snowflakes around her fingers, watching them. She smiles carefully when Oliver smiles at her but cocks an eyebrow when he makes the comment on being human and being an Outcast. "I agree with you whole heartedly," she says. "But that isn't how other humans see us. Some time you will need to get your head out of the clouds and start realizing that they don't see you as human as you see you." She dips her head. "That's my opinion though."

"A few people ah neahby, outside o' dah forest~!" said Dae, his eyes trained solely on a certain apartment. "A bit o' shouting here-n-there, real easy ta hear . . . fer me, anyway." Lily nodded. "So do we go away from here?" The small puppet shook its head. "Pip wantsta go meet them. Think's they-a could be like us. Could be helpful, he says." The little girl got up and put on the thick cotton dress she had picked up somewhere earlier last month. Checking her scarce belongings, Lily exited the tree she was resting in and picked up Bob. "We'll go see if they're friendly first," she said, stepping out of the forest.

Gideon freezes as the man walks up to him but as he asks him a simple question, Gideon relaxes slightly. He looks at the man and points at a single apple, one of the last ones in the pile. He gestures as if to ask if there are more, but it comes out a little confusing. He looks at the man expectantly, as if he hopes the man understood him.

"Any fruit here should be long rotten," Philip said. "It was most likely left here by a Blade to trap us, or lure us here. Ever hear of Sleeping Beauty?" Philip waved for the man to follow him. "Come on, I'll give you some apple sauce."

[ScarlettWaters16]

Gideon cocks an eyebrow and follows the man, curious as to what he's doing. He refers to the others as the Blades and so he tentatively reaches out with his mind and says My name is Gideon Rockwell. Please tell me your name. That would make me a lot more comfortable.

"A telepath, huh?" Philip said. "Well, I'm Philip Tates." He opened the door to the back of the store. "And this is Justin Lee." He said, motioning to the man hidden beside the door.

[ScarlettWaters16]

Nice to meet you both. he says. He begins to relax a little bit. I honestly thought that you guys were Blades originally. I am glad to see that you are not. If you notice that I do not speak with contractions as well as difficult vocabulary, I apologize. Considering that I do not speak with my mouth, my head tends to be a bit more formal with words. He pauses for moment, furrowing his brow. I also am going to apologize if I suddenly become quiet. I am not used to talking this much.

Oliver listens to Ice as she talks. "Yeah well, it should be that way" he replied softly. Suddenly, he headed a voice in his head, If you can hear this, I need your help. We need your help. -gunfire- My name is Rebecca Budgen. We're Outcasts and we are under attack from the Blades. My power is thast I can amplify the surrounding sounds into anyones head. We're hold up in the basement of a small shop just outside the 2021 memorial. -more gunfire- Sean! No! Shit, Sean is down. Please help us. Plea-

[ScarlettWaters16]

Ice stares at Oliver as the message relays through her head as well. The look on his face tells her that he heard the same thing she did. She stands up straight, the snowflake falling from her hands and melting on the ground. She knows she looks worried, but she can't help it. That gunfire is freaky. She stares at Oliver. "Did you hear that too?" she asks quietly.

[SirIdiot]

Cerys's face was pale. She found she was holding tight onto Olivers arm. Oliver nodded slowly. "I heard it" he said quietly. He stood up and Cerys rises with him. She was still holding onto his arm. "We should go check it out. Help them if we can" he said

John was walking up the stairs to his apartment when he heard a voice in his head. He concentrated on it, blocking out all other sounds around him. If you can hear this, I need your help. We need your help. -gunfire- My name is Rebecca Budgen. We're Outcasts and we are under attack from the Blades. My power is thast I can amplify the surrounding sounds into anyones head. We're hold up in the basement of a small shop just outside the 2021 memorial. -more gunfire- Sean! No! Shit, Sean is down. Please help us. Plea- John thought for second about what he was about to do. He was going to rush into an area infested with Blades to save a girl who may or may not be alive. This was stupid. But John wasn't going to let the Blades hurt any Outcasts if he could help it. John sprinted back down the stairs and started running towards the memorial that the girl had said she was at.

Ice walks over to him. "I'm right behind you the whole way." She dips her head to Cersys and Oliver. "There's powers in numbers, you know." She then grins. "Those Blades won't know what hit them." --- Gideon hears the message and turns to them. You hear that? he asks.

[TheUnknowable]

"Yeah," said Philip, "I thought it was you at first, but it's too different than you speaking into my head." He looked at Justin. "You want to try and help? I actually came out tonight to try and clean out some blades. If nothing else, I can steal some of their stuff." Justin knodded. "Sure." he said. "We should protect those that ask for it." "True enough" said Philip, then grabbed his stuff quickly from the break room. He looked at Gideon. "There's preserved food in the break room. Help yourself if you want some."

[ScarlettWaters16]

Gideon falls silent once again, but as they start to walk away, he follows closely behind them. I am coming with you. You may need someone with my ability.

[TheUnknowable]

"Sure," said Philip as Justin walked out with his gear. "Grab some food if you want and we'll go. When everyone was ready they left for the location mentioned in the message.

[ScarlettWaters16]

Gideon grabs a water bottle and the least rotten apple he can find and takes a big bite out of it before following closely behind Philip. He takes a deep breath after finishing his apple and he shrugs off his shirt, setting his water bottle on the ground. Across his chest are two buckle-like straps and he immediately unbuckles them. Suddenly, two dark black, feathery wings pop out from behind his back and spread out. It shows off his massive eighteen foot wingspan. He picks up his water bottle again and begins to follow the guys once more.

My power is thast I can amplify the surrounding sounds into anyones head. We're hold up in the basement of a small shop just outside the 2021 memorial. -more gunfire- Sean! No! Shit, Sean is down. Please help us. Plea- Lily shut her eyes as the message flashed through her head. As her 'children' were connected to her, they also heard it. She turned to Dae and Pip. "Do you think . . . we should go?" she asked hesitantly. Pip, who only cared about Lily's well-being, shook his head. Dae on the other hand wanted to go help. "If nota help, then at leasta we get to see whatsamatter over there. It coulda be dangerous fer us as well, later on." Lily nodded. They both had their reasons. She decided to approach the other Outsiders here and hear their opinion first. Lily slowly made her way towards the apartment, Bob clutched tightly to her chest.

"Look I'm sorry, It's just how I've been brought up to see you people, I didn't mean any offense" Harry said. He looked at the group standing around the room wondering who was going to try and defend outcasts to him first and wondering when he would be discovered.

[SirIdiot]

"Look, we're going. Now if you want to see what us Outcasts are really like then come with us. If not, don't bother" Oliver said to Harry. He gave Cerys a small pat on the shoulder and a nod to Ice as he walked out. He walked down the stairs and out the front door and bumped into someone? It was a little girl holding a toaster. Accompanying her was a bear and a bird? "Uh sorry," he said apologetically. "Are you lost?" He asked

[Aeronees]

Harry looked towards Ice, sure he didn't know her well but he had seen her a few times. "Do you know where he is going or even who he is?" But Harry knew exactly where he was going he had heard the message just as Oliver had.
