Location: The Hanger -> The Brig
Skills:





Niah looked at Strange confused. She didn't understand why her sister would be considered dangerous. Well other than the obvious reason, she had just blown up most of the Hub's Hanger. Niah trusted him though. She knew what he could do. So she only nodded and didn't dare argue.

"Cooperate okay." Niah said to her sister. Her voice was quiet and soft. Niah nodded at Bonnie, worry etched into her features for a moment. She knew that Novi could maybe look at Dalisy and see what her other lives were and that might show that Dalisy wasn't a Skrull. "Magsabi ng isang bagay lamang ang malalaman ko." Niah whispered. She had been holding a conversation with Dalisy in Tagalog could Skrulls learn languages that easily? Had this Skrull learned it specifically knowing Niah knew it? This was quite a set-up if Dalisy was a Skrull.

"When you were five we ran away from home for a night because our brother had been born and you were mad you weren't the baby anymore." It wasn't a definitive test. Maybe Skrulls could read minds, but Niah was at least partially satisfied for now.

She hated knowing that Dalisy would be sent to the Raft, but she had known there was no way she could keep Dalisy safe from the consequences of blowing up the hanger. "Thank you, Director." Niah said and picked Dalisy up and put her in the wheelchair that had been abandoned by Cass.







Location: The Hanger -> The Brig
Skills:





Matt spoke up answering Sparky, "Well it seems that Dalisy here is Niah's sister. She apparently believed Niah was in trouble and was trying to rescue her. I think? Honestly, not entirely certain what language the pair of them were even speaking in." Matt gave a shrug.

"I'll escort them to the brig. I want to check on our guest. Congrats on your promotion Cass." Matt shrugged and followed after Niah as she pushed the wheelchair. He was a little frustrated they had a civilian being held in the brig. It was one thing when they thought he was the Thane they needed. What were the odds he had the right name? How had Oliver's name come to be changed? As far as Matt knew Oliver had been raised by his parents in Cardiff. This must-have meant Oliver had been adopted and didn't even know about it.

"Thanks Matt." Niah said, her voice sounded tired. Matt could understand, she was under a lot of stress. As they made their way toward the brig Niah spoke to her sister some more. "Where have you been? You went missing when I was fifteen."

"It is a long story." Dalisy said. To Matt's ears, she sounded defeated, which she was, but also pleased. Was it cause the sisters had been reunited?


Location: Arthur's room
Skill: n/a





Andy entered Arthur's room and pulled him into a hug. She didn't know what to say. She hadn't had friends until coming to camp and she couldn't imagine what her life would be like without it. It hadn't even been very long that she had been there, and it was already home. Something she could easily say she had never felt before.

"I'm here. I know I can't promise that I'll always be here, but I'll do my best." Andy didn't know to express what she felt for Arthur, she just didn't have the words for it. She wanted to make sure he was okay and always wanted to be by his side. No matter what. She wanted him to be happy and around her. "We've got each other's backs right? Always?"

How could an undereducated ten-year-old girl explain to someone she had only met a few weeks prior that they were the only reason they hadn't run away? Between Arthur and Demi Andy had found a family and home at camp half-blood.








Location: New Rome - the Augury
Skills: n/a



Niah's heart dropped into the pit of her stomach. That was nothing compared to what lay before them. She took a few deep breaths trying to keep herself calm. Everything else in her brain had ground to a halt as fear tore through her. There was no way to prepare for it. No secret tunnel that the engineers could build for a secret escape or reinforcements. Niah considered taking a drink from Nancy's flask as well, in the end, she decided against it. "This changes all of my plans."

Niah glanced at her notebook, the quick notes were useless. Would training the teams even matter? There was no sense of the war games if they weren't going to involve the whole camp. She might still keep the one planned for when the Greeks got here if just to have them understand their fighting technique.

"Side note, completely unrelated, why is there a shrine to Apollo there?" She looked at the painting again. "Related, why the gem from our quest?" There was something unnerving about it being in the painting. It had been the three of them to retrieve it, and now the three of them were going to deal with it again. Mostly these questions where rhetorical she didn't know if either Mads or Nancy had any actual idea of the answer.








Location: New Rome Coffee Shop
Skills: n/a



Emily walked into the coffee shop of New Rome, she carried a hot plate of food. "Marco." Emily said as she walked up to the counter, her boyfriend was making coffee for a customer. "I got you some lunch. Can I have a cappuccino?" She asked.

"One cappuccino coming up for my pretty lady." Marco said giving her a little wink. Emily watched as he deftly started making her drink and she paid for it, sliding him the plate of food with the coins. She took her place waiting for her drink and when Marco handed it over she thanked him.

"I'll wait for you to get off your shift. The senator meeting went late so I bet Parker will be by for a drink soon." The Praetor's addiction to her sugary-sweet coffee was almost legendary. It was at least well known enough at the coffee shop that Emily almost knew Nancy's order by heart too. Emily would be surprised if Nancy went for food before she went for coffee. She figured if that happened it was a sign of the apocalypse.





Location: Hotel Valhalla: Floor 12
Skill:





Dalisy laughed at Arnora's joke as she climbed into the kayak, catching the oar deftly. "Still stuck in the past I see." She said tapping the wood on the kayak. Dalisy didn't actually mind, she had used the older style plenty of times. Basically any time she did this with Arnora. But she liked to tease her friend. She glanced at the body, and not recognizing the person ignored them. They'd wake up in their room come morning. It just didn't matter.

Dalisy sat in front of Arnora. She liked the front of roller coasters and basically anything that gave a jolt of adrenaline. If she was this needy for feeling alive at only five years of being dead she didn't want to know what it would be like to be as old as Arnora or some of the others. She refused to fade though. Dalisy would go out in a fight, the proper and only way for an Einherjar to die.



Rose Buckner


Location: The trails
Skills:





Rose had been running. Had being the operative word there. She was now struggling against a plant that was wrapping around her like something out of Harry Potter. "What?" She looked at the vines and then up seeing the jogger and her daughter. Fear flashed through Rose's mind and body. She had been uncomfortable about the lady and now she knew why. The woman looked like an accurate cos-player of Maleficient. Rose for a second was impressed by her attire, and then she realized that this was who Merlin had warned them about at the park.

"Merlin said the same thing. And he didn't have to tie us up to get us to listen." Rose glared at the woman and then her daughter. "Guessing your names were lies too." Fear was starting to grip Rose even tighter. She was terrified of what Maleficent could do, and she feared the fire spreading and being unable to escape because of the vines. Two of her greatest fears were surrounding her. The fire that could spread, and having her agency taken from her.

Anger at Maleficent surged through her beating back the fear enough so she could think a little clearer. She moved and wiggled until she was free of the vines, and then moved over to Sierra to help her friend break free of her own vines. Rose's stomach was twisting with anger and fear still. Rose was able to pull the vines off of Sierra. Her fear abating. If that was Maleficent's worst they had hope. "Come on, back to the Ranger station. I have a feeling she won't attack us around other people." She grabbed Sierra's hand and started to run back to the station.




Colby Jackson


Location: Merlin's warehouse
Skills:





Colby nodded and stood next to Matthew. He gazed around at those gathered, uncertain. Colby's eyes paused on Annabelle, he apparently wasn't the only one ditching school to be here. He rolled his eyes. She was an annoying, too perfect, girl who didn't like cats.

He wasn't joking when he told Matthew he didn't trust people. He reached up and gave his cat, Jack, a scratch behind the ear. He looked at Merlin intently. Or at least who he assumed was Merlin. All those that had gathered so far were looking at the same dude. He didn't look very...Merlin-y in Colby's opinion.

"So what is your plan from here? Are you able to just open a portal and send us all through? Or do you have to wait until the time is up from the letter?" He had been surprised they were even meeting this early. With a whole bunch of twenty-somethings. Colby felt like he was one of the youngest in the room. An explanation for why he was adopted out so early and some like, Matthew hadn't been. Babies were easier to adopt out.






Location: George Washington University: Lisner Auditorium (Ladies room -> Lobby)
Skills:





Andy was impressed, and honestly a little off-put by the bathroom in the college hall. It was a lot. What public restroom, even limited public, had actual bars of soap? And real towels instead of paper ones? With embroidery. She looked around the bathroom to check if there was anyone else with her in the bathroom. There were a couple of university looking kids, but they didn't seem super interested in her. Once she finished using the bar of soap, she shoved it into her pants pocket. No one said anything even if they had seen her pocket it.

It didn't seem like knife-y dude had decided to follow her into the ladies' room, which was very courteous of him. Or he had a more important target in mind. As far as Andy was concerned, that wouldn't be hard. Or maybe he just had been staring at her. He might not even know she was a mutant. Not every knife-wielding weirdo was out to kill mutants, right? She fixed her make-up, holding onto the hope that knife-y dude wasn't going to chase after her. Maybe she could blend in here, even if it was for a little while.

When she finished cleaning up, Andy went out to the lobby area, drawn in by the sweet smell of coffee. Ah, it was like a piece of heaven on Earth. She poured herself a full cup of black coffee and grabbed a muffin. Out of a desire to not be near knife-y dude, Andy stepped into the auditorium itself to listen to the lecture that was seemingly open to the public.

She almost instantly regretted as the conversation turned quickly to the 'inhuman and mutant problem.' But with her options being knife-y dude outside or an argument of whether she deserved to exist or not. At least here she could drink her coffee undisturbed. Andy took a seat a few rows from the very back and tried not to listen too carefully. She did agree with the angry guy in glasses.

Jamie and Ash had tried to teach her to live peaceably with humans, and she liked to think she'd be capable of it if the humans could act peaceably and stop murdering people she loved. When humans tried to control mutants, it ended badly for both parties. People got hurt, people died. There was enough of that on the television that she knew her story was repeated over and over. Yeah, the lady was right; there probably were a fair amount of mutants that didn't want their powers. Andy wasn't one of them. It had saved her life, even if she knew several of those times, it had been the reason she had been in danger in the first place. Andy didn't trust humans enough not to keep the powers. Heck, she didn't trust mutants enough.

Andy blew on her coffee a bit before sipping at it carefully, trying not to burn herself, and then started pulling apart the muffin. Eating the base first and saving the top for last.


Time: +3:15 hrs
Location: Space, a very far way from Earth







Group breakdown


Round 3 Search
Kyle (9) & Cal (8) - Done Searching
Sophia (4) & Vinnie (12) - Search room 10
Manny (6) & Luke (10) - Search room 8
Tessa (2) & Noah (7) - Search room 9

Z (11) & Raynor(1) & Gordon (5)(chilling in the galley being awesome)





Location: Galley -> Room 8
Skill: N/A




Manny once again assigned rooms for everyone. Since two of the last three rooms that needed to be searched were Kyle or Cal's he let them off the hook this round. Gordon grinned at Vinnie and said, "You look good in my hat. Though, may I have it back." He held out his hand for the hat back.

Manny and Luke went to room eight. As Manny searched the bed he found a small void where something might have been at one point, but otherwise, the room was clean. Luke came up just as empty-handed.

"Was all this searching really necessary?"

"That's to be seen." Manny replied. He could only hope someone had found something of some use. Or that gave them at least an idea of what was going on. He sighed and headed back to the Galley. He hated being trapped. He hated not knowing what was going on. He could feel his training itching to get out and get moving and fix the situation, but as far as he could tell there was no fixing it. Manny was impressed that the kid had gotten her hands on a screwdriver somehow.





Location: Galley -> Room 9
Skill: N/A





Tessa had smiled at Vinnie, there was something itching at the back of her brain about the hipster girl and she couldn't place her finger on it. It was sort of driving her mad. It was like she had seen Vinnie on the back of a milk carton or something. She knew she knew her but had no idea why.

Her and Noah's search of their last room only turned up a climbing harness from the drawer. Tessa had a feeling it was missing some important bits, but she also had a feeling she had never climbed before. She knew what the harness was but not how to put it on.

"Think we should take this back?"

"I bet Manny would have an idea of what to do with it. Yeah." Noah nodded and let Tessa carry it back to the Galley. They were just about to sit back at the table when Manny and Luke came back in.



Galley Group


"I'd like to think I'm capable of doing a good search of a room. I can only hope we just didn't miss anything." Kyle said to Cal. "Though I am no Sherlock." He grinned. He didn't particularly think of himself as Watson either. He lacked some of the necessary training he believed. Manny was more like a Watson, military, and a doctor. Or at least that's the vibe Kyle had gotten from him. Cal's nickname of calling Manny General didn't feel too off.




Niah Bautista





Location: Amtrak -> Great Northern Bicycle Company - Fargo, North Dakota
Skills: Mist



"That actually might work." Niah said, as she looked at the monster following them. "This one is going be immune to your music." Niah looked back at Nancy as they slipped into the bike shop. She blushed slightly as Nancy sang compliments about them. They needed another way out. Niah looked around and spotted the back exit sign.

"Let's go out the back." She tried to conjure up copies of the three of them, but that failed. Nothing happened. At least she could say she tried. Niah took one of the bikes and started toward the back exit. "Mads, think you can make them think we left a different way? They have super bad eyesight, and are polite to a fault." She hoped she had said enough that the other two got what creature she was referring to without saying its name. She didn't want to draw more attention than necessary.





Location: Ravenclaw Tower - Fifth Year Dorm Room
Magic: Pocket Sneakoscope



"Hello Rowan. Thank you. I'm pretty nervous about it all, to be honest." Mary asked her roommate. She was a sweet girl, and Mary had picked up on the girl's weirdness. She was thankful her hair was long it meant Rowan would be a little less grumpy. Mary let Fuzzclaw sniff her hand and then gave the kitty some scratches. She liked cats well enough, but she was happy to have an owl, especially since it meant it could fly around with her.

Mary wasn't certain if she was needed to help the first years, but she wanted to make sure Apollo made it into the tower okay before running off to help the professors. "I'm going to talk to Zelda, make sure we aren't supposed to be doing something right now. I haven't seen Niah. She's the Head Girl this year. So I bet she's off helping the professors." Mary explained. As much as she didn't care for Zelda, the girl was older and knew the protocol for what prefects should be doing. Though everything was in disarray right now. "I'll see you at the feast if not before then." She smiled at Rowan and then headed down to the common room.

"Zelda, should we be helping with the first years or anything?" She asked. Zelda was surrounded by the quidditch team, so Mary could only hope that her voice would be heard through their clamoring.
