Shiver

Shiver appeared right next to Omega. "Hey! Glad I caught you! While you were gone I was hit with a big packet from a lawyer's office. It had something to do with you too!" Shiver sat down and asked him. "Do you remember the blood you had to give for testing when you were put up for joining the Agency's HQ? Good keep that in mind."

"Do you remember anything from before you were five at all?" Shiver had thought this would be difficult. "I thought this would be a little easier but it's not. It still makes me nauseated that she ...that all of this happened like this." She glanced down at the pictures and she grabbed the one from the wall.

She picked up the founders photo and pointed everyone out she was careful to point out her aunt DD. "My mom was an angel sent down by the creator and she had many many lives. She was reborn over and over and there was a problem with her memory. Anyway each time she was reborn it would kill the woman bearing her and she would be adopted out and eventually her memory would return around 18 years old or so. She would remember her husband Kronos and the same thing would be happening to him as well."

"My mom married Sideswipe and they had a little girl they named Tia. About the same time DD met Hunter and they married and had twins Coheed and Cambria. I have no idea what happened but Tia died. Right after that the gates to hell were forced open and there was a battle and during the fight DD and Hunter were killed. Hunter was one of the Green Lanterns. My mom was the key to the prophecy and she was the one to close the gates. She had to use her angel power to do it though." Shiver took a deep breath. "The kids were sent to Wicked and Sideswipe so my mom had her niece and nephew with her and Sideswipe. The next thing that happened was Sideswipe became part of the speedforce."

Shiver was really saddened by the next part. "So my mom at this point was what Bell called fracturing and for some unknown reason she sent Coheed away. She never told anyone where she sent him. Bell started snooping into her finances and found the money she was sending out for his care. The other weird part was that she started calling Cambria, Tia." She paused a moment and said, "Then her first husband Kronos came back and I was conceived. He was another angel here on Earth sent by the creator. Mom and he had a huge fight and he left before mom knew about me."

She cleared her throat nervously. "Ok this is my aunt DD with the twins and that is Hunter in the background. That is my aunt and uncle and cousins Tia, who is really Cambria and Coheed who is...you." Shiver watched his expressions and put the picture in front of him. "That is you and your sister Cambria and your real name is Coheed."

"Do you remember anything at all?" Shiver was waiting for the explosion that was no doubt coming. "As you can imagine it's been a rough day for all of us. Tia got the truth today too. She is at the agency right now."

"So cousin, do you want to go see your sister? I can take you with me." Shiver sat back and waited.

"Omega"

As Omega relished the past, a memory came to mind....

"So how'd you get faster? Damn it... and stronger too. My jaw is still throbbing from that last hit." Michael said as the two walked side by side through the corridor. Michael had his hand on the left side of his throbbing jaw.

"What if I told you that it was because I'm just that good?" Aaron joked. He looked at Michael who was scowling pretty hard at him, but all Aaron could do was exchange a cheeky smile. "You really wanna know?" Michael nodded, not wanting to talk too much due to the pain. "Remember how those nerds told us that your TK was better than mine? They said you could lift things from far away and mess people up without even touching them. Then they said The only thing my TK could accomplish was providing an invisible field around my body. All I had was an invisible shield. So basically a crap version of your power... BUT, I found a way to use it for more. Doctor whatever his name is... The old bald one with the glasses. He told me that I could use it to move my body faster and mimic super strength, but that was stupid because I have super strength and speed... And when I told baldy that, he asked me why I couldn't just choose be faster and stronger." Aaron reached his hand out and formed a fist. "Now I'm the best!"

"For now. By the way, thanks for the lesson. Now I'll know how to beat you next time... but at least we know we're both strong. Maybe one day we can be famous or something. The strongest metas ever." Michael said as he reached out and made a fist like his friend. Aaron laughed before the two struggled against each other to see who could reach their fist out farther as they walked.

Omega looked up when Shiver appeared out of nowhere. He disliked every teleporter he'd met in his life for that reason. He looked at Shiver who started beating around the bush about something. She asked him weird questions. Remember anything before I was five? Who the hell remembers that? And what is she even getting at..? Omega thought before she started showing him pictures of people he didn't even know... well except for Wicked of course. Then came the story of Wicked being an angel. If she's an angel, I must be god or something... Hmm, Omega... God. Now that sounds nice! He continued to listen, and raised an eyebrow when Shiver started to become more and more nervous.

"... and Coheed... who is you."

Omega looked at Shiver and glared into her eyes as she continued to talk. Is this some kind of sick joke? Does she actually find this amusing?! Omega continued to glare. If anyone was placing bets on who could piss Omega off after his wonderful space adventures, whoever had money on Shiver was the winner.

"So cousin, do you want to go see your sister? I can take you with me."

Yeah, she won big time. Omega didn't say anything to her at first and just looked at the picture. If this wasn't a joke, then... yeah he could still be as furious as he is at the moment.

"Shiver, is this really true?" Omega asked with a disturbing calmness. He almost sounded robotic when speaking as he tried so hard to keep himself from igniting the fuse deep inside his soul. Liz cleared her throat and exited the room, as she had already noticed a humming in the room as everything in the room seemed to vibrate fast enough to emit sound. All he needed was an answer...

Shiver

Shiver looked at him. She knew he was going to lose it. She handed him the picture of him with his family. "It's why Wicked didn't want you for the HQ. She was worried you would end up in Tia's bed. Go ahead, I lost it for a while today too.I have no idea how Tia....Cambria handled it. This is you and your family. Some of your powers might come from your dad being a green lantern. Before you blow up can you please go outside so we don't have to fix the HQ?"

"I wonder if Bell told Cambria what happened with you when you were little. I've been waiting to go see her til I could tell you and see if you wanted to go too. And don't yell at me I'm just the bearer of bad news."

"Omega"

Omega stood up from his seat and looked at Shiver.

"I don't care about knowing... I was better off left in the dark... And Wicked shouldn't have been afraid of me joining because who I was related to, but because..." Omega walked out of the office and headed out the front door. As he passed the statue of Wick it twisted and contorted, but remained in place. I can't be here. He thought as he took into the sky and flew eastward.

The only things he could think of were the orphanage, Output, that picture, and then finally a malevolent faced Wicked. He flew fast enough for his comlink to fly off and didn't think to recover it. He made the conscious decision to go till he found a suitable place to pour his powers into. The man landed in the Sahara Desert, causing sandstorm with the impact using both his strength and telekinesis. He roared as shockwavessential continued to leave his body over and over again wishing he could destroy the woman who put him through hell itself.

Shiver and Cambria

Shiver was not surprised that he left. She ported to Cambria. "Hey cousin. I just told your brother. In case you were wondering I'm pretty sure he hates me most at this particular moment. Did Bell tell you why she sent him away?" Cambria nodded, "Yes, and why, is the saddest part yet." Shiver asked her. "Which name do you want to go by?" Her cousin said. "I would like to honor my mother so I'm going to go with Cambria. Besides, Tia is a name with tragedy attached to it."

"Can you come back to the HQ for a few days?" Cambria nodded and said "Yeah." Shiver took her back to the HQ and she went to go see Miles. "Shiv let me know when he gets back." "No problem, I have a feeling we will all know." Shiver felt as if she were part of some surreal nightmare that she can't get out of.

Shiver ported into Cal's living room and joined him on the couch and snuggled into him and watched tv. At that moment she just needed normalcy.

Cambria

Cambria stopped by her room first and she laid on her bed and had a good long cry. She picked up her box and started going through it. There were a few pictures of her and Coheed playing with Tia and others of her and her sibling and their parents among the pictures. Bell had promised to print out another set for Coheed in case he wanted them.

She closed her eyes as old memories came to the front for the first time in years. She remembered that day that everything changed. Mom and dad were in the house with Aunt Wicked and Sideswipe. Cammy, Coheed and Tia were all playing on the swingset. Three four year olds will always find something to argue about and true to form they did. All three wanted to swing at the same time and Tia and Cammy were fighting over the last swing.

All of the kids had powers at birth not as advanced as they would later become but still powerful. Coheed was progressing in his telekinetic training very well and his Dad bragged about it all the time. Tia was doing pretty well with her Super speed. She would often irritate Cambria by running circles around her. Cambria had molecular manipulation and was still having trouble with the triggers. They were not allowed to use their powers unsupervised. However, they were kids and of course they weren't listening to that rule. Coheed had lifted the swingset he was on so he could go higher. It was about 10 feet off of the ground.

Cambria and Tia had been fighting and Tia started running circles around her to piss her off and it did. Cambria remembered what she said to Tia. "If you don't stop I'll make you stop!" Cambria had gotten so mad at her she wasn't focused enough to control her powers. 4 year old Cammy had shouted "Stop!" and pushed her hands out at Tia and instead of freezing Tia. Tia's chest exploded and she fell to the ground dead.

The adults heard the explosion and came running. Wicked Flame started screaming and sobbing and Hunter took his kids home while DD stayed with her sister, who was holding her dead little girl. After the twins' parents death and Sideswipe disappearing it was Wicked and the twins.

In her heart Wicked knew that Cambria didn't mean to hurt Tia. She remembered the day Wicked had another lady take Coheed away. Wicked had wrestled with the decision but she sent him away because Cammy was dangerous and he and she kept fighting and she was afraid that Cammy would accidentally kill him too. She had paid for him to go to a good family and that he be taught about and how to use his powers. She kept Cammy with her so she could teach her and keep others safe. Cambria must have blocked all of this out. She laid down and sobbed.

Doctor

While Evergreen sat meditating in her room she became aware of a presence she'd always known but never felt so strongly as that moment.

"My sweet daughter, my vessel, my cherished child what troubles you so?

Let go the petty world of those mortal born and become." says a voice softly in the first language.

It is Gaea the source of Evergreen, she who blessed and cursed her to life without end, whom Amelia suspects is her mother.

"Time is a terrible weight mother and I am always a pawn; Why if you love me did you do this to me?" asks Evergreen of the disembodied voice and mysterious eyes.

"What I did I did for love, for the need to experience things through your eyes.

You my lovely one are my eyes, my heart and my link to those things beyond my ability to know.

I who was formed of Chaos and knew not the sweet union of love need you to show me what has been, what is and what will be."

Then suddenly Amelia feels herself flush with life force so powerful it is dizzying an causes her to pass out

[FunnyGuy]

"Sigma"

After the military incident, Sigma kept a low profile. Though she does not seem like the type to seclude herself, Sigma's go to is solitary. Usually when she gets bored of that, she spends time bothering others. Now was that time as she teleported to different parts of HQ and noticed that two out of her three favorite people to bug were missing. She knew that Omega usually announced his departure and arrival. And Sigma knew that he only did this so he could just announce his grand arrival back to wherever he left. The thought of it caused Sigma roll her eyes.

"Omega this is Sigma. Over." Sigma said through a closed channel over comms. She waited about a minute as she leaned up against his room door. "Omega? Omega! Mike answer your fucking comlink!" Sigma cursed as she was irritated in his unresponsiveness. "Drifterrrr, this is Sigma. Over." Sigma didn't have bone in her body that was mean enough to yell at Jessica. She thought of Jess as innocent. "Shiver, this is Sigma. Where the hell are our flyers? They're not here. Are you tracking where they are?" Sigma asked sternly. She was hoping the answer was yes, or Shiver might have some explaining to do.

Having some initiative, Sigma stopped by Omega's office. Stop by as in teleporting in without any kind of warning. She saw that Omega and Shiver were gone, but the secretary was there a bit startled by her sudden arrival. Sigma didn't look at the girl before she scanned the room and only noticed that Omega's suit was still in his office. Weird. I knew something suspicious happened. When Sigma's eyes met with Liz's, Liz diverted her eyes down.

"Do you need any assistance? Both team leaders are ou-" Liiz was interrupted.

"I know. I usually know where everyone is, but today I lost track of two of them. Now I don't know enough about Jess to think of where she may have gone. She pretty much comes and goes as she pleases as far as I know, but Omega is arrogant enough to always make sure people know when he's gone so he announce his arrival to his teammates that may desperately need his help." She mocked the last bit. "So where did my big bro go? And yes, I mean Omega." Sigma asked with her hands on her hips. Liz bit her bottom lip before spilling everything that went down in the office as best as she could. She then pointed to the picture on the desk. "Hmm... So now he knows why his life has been so shitty. He must have left to go break some stuff..." Sigma nodded her head as she seemed satisfied with the information she was given. "Thanks for the heads up. Bye!" Sigma said before vanishing and appearing on a rooftop by the docks of San Francisco. Sigma pulled out a disposable flip phone and made a call. "Omega is in a pretty sorry state right now. It would be best to contact him. I'm sure he can be easily swayed... No I don't know where he is. I found this out while looking for him. I'll text you the detail, and then I'm getting rid of this prehistoric phone. Oh and by the way, their also missing Drifter. She's formidable as hell. Pretty innocent, but her powers have been honed to point where I feel she makes a difference. I'll update you on anything else later today." Sigma said before removing the phone's battery and snapping the phone in two and teleporting right onto a dock where she dropped the broken device. She sighed as she teleported onto her comfortable bed. For the time being, she'd watch tv while wondering what would be going on.

@RumikoOhara@Wick

"Omega"

Within a crater in the Sahara Desert sand, the man lies on his back. For the first time, in a very long time, he doesn't know what to do. He feels as lost as he was when he was removed from the orphanage, when he discovered his powers that he never knew he always had. He had used every ounce of his energy to let out the anger held. When he could not use his telekinesis anymore, he had beat his fists into the sand. His knuckles bled, but he could heal, so he did this repeatedly like child having a tantrum until he lacked the energy to even do that. As he looks up at the sky that is slowly darkening with brown watered eyes, he attempts to think on his next move, but all he can see his life unfolding. The life that was stripped from him, and the tattered life he was given in return. He knew that as powerful that he would ever become, he would never have complete control over his life or be able to change the past. The absence of his biological family had already been filled again and again. First by humans who feared his powers, and then by an organization that meant to take advantage of these powers. He could admit that there was some good to his life. It might have felt better to know that everything he was told today, never happened. In some twisted way, he had accepted what he believed to be his upbringing. That it was meant to just be as bad as it was. That there was no choice in the matter, it just... happened. Now knowing that all of this was caused by the acts of one person, a person he can't even hope to declare vengeance on for dropping him into a hellish pit, he feels destroyed. He wished he could bring back the woman's life, so he could strip it from her like she did to him, but he had no resource regarding that.

He thought about Hades, but what did he have to give in return? He thought about promising to return the life he had brought back, but why would Hades trust him? He thought about returning to the HQ while pretending everything was fine, but the sting of the word brother coming from Tia and cousin coming from Shiver would just remind him. No, their presence would remind him. Then what? He did not yet know the answer to that question. Would he say something rude to give himself distance or would he just pack up and leave so he could forget? But he wouldn't forget. He'd just be upset for the rest of his time on this world. How could he be so strong, but be defeated by a revelation that only took seconds to be revealed. He'd lie here until he figured out what he would do. It would take long, but it needed to be done.

As he lay there, his phone buzzed. Someone was trying to call him, but as he worried about what was to come, he ignored it and continued to drift deep into his thoughts.

[Wick]

Shiver

Shiver woke up and went back to the office. Check in for roll call. As each team member announced their location she became aware of a few who were just not answering. Omega was off the comlinks. His showed no information past where it had fallen off of him. She marked down that location so she could check on it. "Drifter come in, do you copy?" She waited a second and said "Jess? Where are you?" She checked the comlinks and they were giving an odd location. "Jess? Why does your comlink say you are not in the country?" "Son of a bitch!" she uttered just under her breath.

Shiver was getting pissed off. She looked at Liz. "This is bullshit. Omega is a loose cannon and disappears. Hey I got my world turned upside down twice this week and I didn't run off like a freaking baby. No one can keep track of Jess, she won't interact on a personal level unless you practically force her to and now she is off doing only the gods know what to who the hell knows who. I think they are all trying to drive me insane." Shiver was glowing erratically and rubbing her temples hard.

She went to the location in the desert that Omega lost it at. She could see into the desert far off into the distance. He was still dumping his energy. She decided that since she knew why and where she would give him some time.

Star Child

Jessica walked into coffee shop somewhere on the Riviera wearing clothing which she'd obtained at a donation box in Omaha Nebraska. She thought they made her appear like the many collage students which roamed Europe this time of year and judging by the stares of the men and a few of the women there they also gave her some degree of sex appeal.

She sat down at one of the public Internet terminals and fained using a credit card to swipe the machine using her ability to recreate magnetic fields to simulate the information on a young woman's card who drove an expensive sports car an would likely never notice so small a charge.

Several people near her smiled when she allowed a giggle to escape as she imagined her trainers back on Lively Island's faces if they saw how she now used her fine control for petty fraud.

She began by running a search the combined Politics, Laws and Meta using her ability to consume text data at a staggering pace an what she was reading wasn't pretty. The government's of the world almost as a whole were passing laws an signing treaties that made being Meta little better than being a criminal. Beyond the laws Jesse began seeing how some governments had been simply executing people like herself or forcing them to be slaves of the state.

So distracted was Jessica that when a girl behind her commented on how fast she was reading it startled her causing the Internet in the cafe to go down.

Knowing that if the Squints were looking for her that her lapse of control could lead them to her Drifter stood and just walked out.

Another woman about 25 walked out behind Jesse. She had blue black hair and dark hazel eyes an was smiling when she said "Please don't fly away Jesse I'd like to talk to you.

My name is Elliott Sinclair and you and I share similar genetic traits. "

Jessica turned to face this Sinclair woman in case she was either...well in case she was a foe. considering how off the reservation she was Jess couldn't count on many friends

"Okay Elliott it's your two penny's spend them" she said gently

The other woman laughed then pursed her lips controlling herself a moment before speaking
"First off big fan, I loved reading about the Pink Angel and how refreshing you are; not many people much less Meta go out of their way to help with mundane events like stranded motorists.

My ability is sort of lame as a life saving, take down the bad guy ability though if you ever need a language translated, code broken or a window to the past I'm your girl.

Jessica looked at Elliott and relaxed a little as the gears of logic turned the information she'd just received into something like a workable plan

"So if we were to go to a place where there occurred a traumatic event such as a suicide you could see it?"

Elliott paused a few moments before answering as she weighed the potentials
"Yes that and if you are holding my hand I can illuminate the event so that you can see it as well but if this concerns someone close to you I'd caution against it.

I can see how resent events have affected you and frankly you out of control is spooky considering who you are.

If you want to know if it was actually suicide I can tell you if it was and if it wasn't I can help show you those responsible. Of course I feel that doing that might make me party to a crime of revenge but I also think till you know the truth you might be even more dangerous.

We can take my car there, I know you prefer to fly but you might be spotted so alternate transport might be best; we can be there tomorrow around noon standard."

While listening to Elliott Jesse caught a paranoid twinge
"How do you know where we're going?" asked Jesse suspiciously

Elliott laughed her dark hazel eyes dancing then said
"I'm not called Retro because of my style choices. I can look back along your time line and see the most powerful events without trying and this event is pivotal.

I'm not working for anyone except myself and it isn't cash that drives me; that I can get hunting runaway pets for the wealthy and not become a ward of the state. Normally I'd work on this behind the scenes but I have a mildly uncomfortable feeling that left to your training your solution would be more militant.

As I said I'm a huge fan an keeping you out of trouble my civic service."

[Wick]

Cambria

Enyo was speeding Cambria out to Omega. She dropped her about ten feet away from Coheed/Omega. Cambria not used to speeding like that fell to her knees and wretched violently for a few minutes before weakly getting to her feet and she walked over to her brother. "Hey big brother, I know you hated me before but I need to tell you some things...very important things. It's not Wicked's fault. It's mine."

Shiver

Shiver decided to find out what the heck Jess was doing. She looked at herself in the mirror and she was wearing a T-shirt, jeans and sneakers. She grabbed a denim jacket and ported to Jess' location according to her comlink. She appeared behind a garbage dumpster and she went to the street and looked around. She recognized Jess almost immediately. She was dressed in an odd fashion that was bound to get attention. She wasn't alone though she was speaking to a woman. Shiver took a pic and sent it through her comlink to the database at the Agency. Bellisima answered her back in just a few minutes. "Her name is Elliott Sinclair AKA Retro. Her known abilities are vague, she is also known as the Interpreter. What's up?" Shiver said, "Jess is on the Riviera talking to her. I want to know what is going on. I don't like it when part of my team decides to go rogue."

Remembering his talk with Tito, Miles got onto his commlink Shiver...come in, Shiver. It's me, Miles. I have something to speak with you about if you're available. I think we have a potential that you may need to consider. he said thinking about the information he just received. And have you or Omega heard from Glitch lately?? he asked.

"I'm not in the office Miles but Yeah set up a meeting for tomorrow and I'll meet your person. I've been trying to locate Glitch and Evergreen since the incident the other day. I'm off chasing Jess as we speak. BTW if you need her Cambria is back at Conspiracy and is supposed to talk to Omega. Hey, Miles...it might be an explosive talk. There is stuff you don't know yet but she is really going to need your support. I expect that Enyo will help her just be alert."

Visi-Play / Glitch

Nodding to what she was saying, Miles responded. 10-4.....will do. and Cambria? oh...I gotta get used to that name. He forgot for a moment that that was Tia's birth name. Glitch have been weird lately but I'll try and contact him. and....alright, I'll be cautious while approaching them. Thanks though...

Miles saw where Tia, well Cambria was located and headed where she and Omega was so he could give that support that Shiver was talking about. He needed to call Tito to let him know that the girl he talked about should come through in the morning. She sounded useful but dangerous though. He hope this was a good idea. Glitch was another problem he was thinking about but he was going to have to wait. He turned the corner to hear the conversation between the two.

Glitch finished his personal project as he kept the setting of his computer's building machines active to continue on the construction of the military counter measures. For now, Glitch was suiting up. Getting on his utility gauntlets, jet boots, scanner goggles, and his head piece for his matrix mecha summonings. He was ready for a test drive. Grabbing his capsule of nano tech so to put issues and justice into his own hands. He had his comm off and with his head piece, he was to have gained the ability to shut off any form of any scans that could locate him.

He was going to start off in China town to deal with an individual he's read about recently.

Star Child

Jesse and Sinclair climbed into deep blue Mini Cooper Elliott giggling as Jessica's EAS flew into the back folding it's self and stacking neatly.

Ms. Sinclair wasted little time driving north towards the English Channel as if they we entrants in road ralley.

The stereo played a selection to a French performer named Ingrid. The music as a rapid pop tango with catchy lyrics which somehow the girl calling herself Retro drew Jesse into singing duet as the tiny turbo charged box danced almost in rhythm to the music switching lanes and passing cars.

They were like two collage girls on a road trip until Jess began singing seriously lyrics to Tu Es Foutu (You Promised Me) then Elliott became a suicidal Fan Girl praising Jesse spending at least 65% her attention on the magnetic maiden and not traffic.

Then the most absurd thing happened at a fuel station; Elliott grabbed Jessica an taught her to tango beside the highway.

They broke down laughing an took turns when an elderly an portly french cut in dancing with both girls under the fuel island roof.

By the time they were pulling into the Chunnel loading platform Jessica was asleep and Elliott didn't allow her to be disturbed by customs using her connection to get a pas through.

[FunnyGuy]

Omega

A while before Cambria showed up with Enyo and soon after, Miles, the sand shifted beneath Omega as he sat up and looked around the crater. His face still presented his pain. The man only knew this place to get as dark and cold as it was now. He found the desert to be a very bipolar terrain. Hot and way too bright during the day, and then dark and too cold for comfort at night. He shivered, but with quick strong exhale he ceased it. He pulled out his phone and turned on the screen to bring light into the dark abyss.

In a way, he was illustrating how he currently felt. Except he did not have any kind of light that could guide him. He'd need to go home soon, but he still hadn't gained the motivation to. He pointed his phone out and around as he heard something close by. An animal? He questioned as he pointed his light in the direction of the faint sound. His eyes narrowed as he looked upon a dried clump of shed snake skin. He stared at it for a moment, before descending back to his thoughts. But before he could fully do that, his phone vibrated in his cold hands. June...

"Hello." He answered. "Yeah, I'm sorry, I just have been busy, you know... yeah I'm just dealing with something heavy..." Omega chuckled for a bit before looking in the dark at where the shed skin was. "I don't think I can lift everything, but I'm glad you think so... Sure, breakfast sounds perfect. I'll see you then... Bye." Omega hung up and used his phone to light the sand once again. My life... It hasn't changed and it won't just because of what happened back then. I am who I am today. I have someone to blame for it now, but they're long gone. When a snake leaves it's old skin, it does just that. It leaves it. The past that I've witnessed built me up into who I am. So these new revelations, they won't change me. I am who I was built up into, and nothing will change that. Omega's expression changed as he began to let things go. He now looked more confident and resolved.

He was waiting on his powers to recover some as he had basically overused them. That's when Cambria and Enyo arrived. He flashed his phone in their direction before he was approached. Cambria's words were like the second bomb to drop on his world. The ender.

"If you would have shown up sooner, I will would have killed you." Omega said coldly. The second bomb was reduced to nothing. An outcome that could be seen as far scarier. "But I think it's more fitting to have you just live with it." Omega said this as Miles arrived. "I'm heading back to the HQ, and by the way... it's Omega to you." He said referring to her addressing him as big brother.

[Wick]

@FunnyGuy

Cambria

Cambria was sick and tired of him ignoring her. She raised her hand up and he froze in his tracks. She moved her fingers a little and his head unfroze. "I need to say this to you and you need to shut up and listen. If you don't you can go back to prison or whatever detention facility they let you avoid."

"Mom and dad were in the house with Aunt Wicked and Uncle Sideswipe. You and I and Tia were all playing on the swingset. Tia and I were fighting over the last swing."

"Tia was a speedster and she would bug me by speeding circles around me. I was having trouble with my triggers for my molecular manipulation. We weren't supposed to use our powers without mom and dad there but you had lifted the swingset up into the air so you could go higher."

"She and I had been fighting and Tia started running circles around me to piss me off. I told her "If you don't stop I'll make you stop!" Cammy took a deep painful breath. "We were 4 years old. I raised my hands and yelled Stop! but instead of freezing her. It blew a hole through her chest and she fell over dead."

"The adults heard the explosion and came running. Aunt Wick and Uncle Swipe started screaming and sobbing and Hunter took us home while DD stayed with Wick and Swipe. Mom and Dad died during the battle to close the gates. Sideswipe disappeared into the speedforce so then it was Wicked and us."

"Wicked knew that I didn't mean to hurt Tia. The day Wicked had another lady take you away she cried for hours. Wicked had wrestled with the decision but she sent you away because she said I was dangerous and you and I kept fighting and she was afraid that I would accidentally kill you too. She had paid for you to go to a good family and that you be taught about and how to use your powers. She kept me with her so she could teach me and keep others safe. At that time Bellare was in another dimension with Elric so Olympus wasn't an option."

"Bell tracked her money trying to find you. The money was paid out til about six months before you showed up at the HQ. Bell said Wick knew who you were but that the angel didn't give a damn. Since the angel was in control, well you know what happened. The thing is that Wicked got letters on your well being for all those years. Someone basically stole that money and dumped you. You were supposed to be brought home and there were excuses. We need to find out who did that and why." She looked at Omega. "I didn't remember but bits and pieces til Bell spoke to me about it." "And most of what I remembered I thought was a nightmare."

"Something Bell told me I didn't realize. Our powers are linked because we are twins. When we work together our powers amplify somehow. If we worked at it we could figure it out. I'll let you go now." Enyo was still off a ways so they could have their privacy. Cammy unfroze Omega and phased herself.

Omega

Omega really didn't want to hear this, but what other choice did he have. As he listened, his cold expression didn't seem to fade. It almost seemed as if Cambria still had his head frozen. He got more insight on the past, but he was over it.

"Finally." He let out as he drifted his body about. "If you're so worried with the people who took Wick's cash, then find them. Kill them if you think it'll make me happy." Omega smirked before dropping down to the sand. "Sol, contact Sigma so I can get to HQ."

"Sure." Sol replied casually. He raised an eyebrow at the tone of the AI. It didn't take much time for Sigma to arrive and get him back to HQ. Once he was there, he went into his office. He grabbed a new comlink and prepared it.

"HQ, this Omega. I've arrived, any updates?" He announced as he started browse on his laptop. It wasn't long until he was asleep at his own desk.

Red Strike (Ro'Kun)

Ro'Kun suddenly leaped down from above, right in front of Shiver. "AHA! Found you, you..." he looked her up and down. Jeans really suited her. He shook his head back to reality. He was here because he'd been looking all over for her. Like what the fuck, right? ...Right? "...hey wait a minute, why didn't you answer my phone calls?" he asked. Little did he know, Shiver had been giving Omega a heart to heart as he had attempted to call her.

Shiver

Shiver grinned at Ro'kun. "I wasn't lost. When did you...ohh, I must have been talking to Omega. Why were you looking for me? What's wrong? I have to keep after Jess. I'm not sure but I am worried about what she is doing. She is in trouble I think. I need more information on this woman."

Shiver got to her office and Omega had fallen asleep on his desk. She sighed and asked Ro'kun, "Think I should leave him there or send him to his room?" She turned her head to the position his neck was in and said, "My neck says his will hurt if he sleeps that way for long." Shiver compromised and opened a pull out bed in the back of the office and pulled it over next to his desk and teleported him into it. "There, at least his neck will be happier." She covered him with a blanket and turned out the light.

Shiver turned to Ro'kun. "Did you find anything out on Evergreen? Where the hell is she?" Shiver realized what she had said and chuckled and waggoled her ring finger and said "Hell" get it?" Ro'kun looked at her a little bewildered then grinned.

Cambria and Enyo

Cambria had gotten back about the same time as Omega did. She hadn't wanted to leave him in the desert as weak as he was so she waited til Sigma got there to pick him up. Enyo had sped her back and once again Cammy spent time losing whatever had been left in her stomach. "Why do I ask her for help that ends up hurting my stomach?" Shiver chuckled at her. "How did he take it?" "Not well."

As soon as Enyo walked into the building Shiver gave her the coordinates of Jess and the woman and asked her to follow her and report in regularly. "If she gets into any trouble let me know asap. I have to find out what to do about this woman and if she is a harm to Jess or us. "Enyo packed a bag quickly and took off. "See ya soon Shiv." "Be safe Yoyo."

"Shiver the part you don't know is that Omega was sent away..." "I know, I think....was he the one who accidentally killed Tia?" Cammy shook her head. "No he didn't. I did. I got my triggers wrong. I was four years old and I accidentally killed our cousin and your sister." Shiver was silent for a moment. "So my mom kept you close ...to teach you because your power is deadly... in several ways right?" She looked at Omega. "She sent him away for his own safety didn't she?" Cammy nodded. "Craaap it's hard to keep being mad at her when I realize she was a better person than I thought she was." "Yeah, but someone stole the cash and he never ended up where he was supposed to go. I need to find out who did that to him and why? I don't care about the money I care about what happened to my brother, even if he does hate me." Shiver grinned sadly at her. Let's get some sleep. I have an interview in the AM with a new meta. The girls walked down the hall to their rooms.
