Andy was torn between going with Madalyn to get the gem and records or waiting. She decided to wait though because she didn't want to leave Arthur alone any longer than necessary. She did tense when Madalyn said that Hecate was her mother. Andy gave Arthur a side glance trying to gauge if he was okay. Would he want to be around her? Rebecca was also a child of Hecate. She wondered what it would have been like for the two to meet. Would they have gotten along as sisters? Or would the divide or Roman and Greek get in the way? Or would Rebecca's general...creepiness have gotten in the way? It was hard to tell.

The group was starting to disperse. People going off in their separate directions. She looked to Arthur and said quietly. "I've got your back." They fought well together. She was going to make sure they stuck together to make sure he didn't lose anyone else as best she could.

Em took a few deep breaths. "The madness in that place is like a miasma." She told Marco. "It feels...alive." She didn't know how to explain it, how it twisted and turned and would not allow itself to be dormant for long. "I don't trust it." She said, wildly understating how she felt.

"Whatever you do Waverly don't wander off." She wanted to warn Demi about how dangerous that place could be. How the Labyrinth was...hungry. She didn't want to say it so Waverly could hear her though. Didn't want to scare the girl any more than was necessary. She just had to stay close to camp then things could be figured out. But they had a war coming to them they had to protect their home. Unfortunately, that meant Waverly would have to wait.

"Please lead the way." Niah said and started to follow Alannah out of the Senate house. She was thankful that Nancy had been able to muster a bit of a grin back at her, though she could tell how hard it had been. Niah touched the bracelet that was the reminder of all the three of them had been through to get to this point.

"Don't take off without me." Andy said.

Niah checked her armor as they started walking to the Greek ship. She had no desire for something to go wrong with her armor while in the air. That was a death sentence for her. The ship was, she had to admit, impressively built. She wondered how it flew. Maybe Alannah would give her some information on that. She had a decent grasp of how magic worked, but nowhere near as good of an understanding as Mads.






Location: Boardwalk
Skills: Psychometry





Niah grinned as Ryanor called her psychotic. It was really funny actually and she had to try her best to not laugh. "I'm Niah Bautista. Born in 1997 and raised in the Philippines." She told the truth of this version of reality the version that until the fight with the demon bear she hadn't remembered. "My sister is Dalisy wanted by SHIELD for acts of terrorism, and for what is probably completely legitimate reasons on Doctor Strange's watch list. I am a mutant, product of Phase Three." She said. All details anyone part of the Secret Warriors would know, and not a single lie.

She was sad about Maria and hoped that the Skrulls were taking prisoners. It would be worth having to deal with Flynn again if Maria returned to them. She removed her glove and touched Cass's clothing, her power didn't work on people it had to be objects. She got a flash of Cass kissing Matt, she had known they had gone on a date, but really gross. There were a few other flashes of things that confirmed that Cass's clothes hadn't been summoned or previously belonged to a green-blooded alien trying to take over the world. "Cass is good." Niah just caught Matt's shoulder release a little tension.

Matt had a conundrum as the group was telling truths about themselves. If he said he was born 'Matt Moss' it would be a lie. Did he out himself like that? Part of the group had to know. At least Cass did. He decided to word it carefully. "My name is Matthew Moss. I was born in London in 1991. I joined the SBS where I encountered the Terrigian Mists and found out I was inhuman. During the fight on the moon I was exposed again but thankfully didn't die." He figured he'd be kind to Oliver and not say his exposure was Oliver's fault.

He felt better knowing that both Niah and Raynor had cleared Cass. He held out his jacket for Niah who when she touched it she made the same face she had when she saw Cass's memories. "Seriously how much do you guys make out?" Matt rolled his eyes. "Yeah he's not a Skrull. I was gonna say he's human, but he's actually a descendent of aliens that lived on the moon so that wouldn't be true."

"What has gotten into you?' He asked Niah she was never like this.

"General anesthesia." Niah said with a grin. "They really wouldn't have discharged me if Dr. Larson hadn't been there. Who's next?"


Ed Penior




Location: Liberty Island
Skills: Sympathetic: Healing



Loki was down and Klara was talking like her normal self again. Rambling. It was nice to hear actually. Reassurance that she was okay. He had felt bad every time one of their group had hurt her or Runa knowing that underneath the spell they wouldn't have wanted to hurt the group. They had come here to defeat Loki just as much as the X-Men had.

"Klara, make sure there is no impending tsunami to worry about." Ed said and dropped his concentration on the shield spell around the civilians. He was going to need his full concentration for his next trick. He had seen his sister do it a few times when there were a lot of people hurt. He frowned at the memory.

Then made his way around the group gathering a bit of blood from each injured person and set about his task of healing all of them. He paused at Neil confused. He had been stabbed, fallen at the same time Mary had, but he couldn't get to both of them, and here Neil was standing looking healthy. "You okay?" He asked waiting for the answer and set back to his task.

A soft orange glow emanating from Ed's hands spread out and touched each person that he had collected blood from. They would feel their wounds knitting back together and when the orange glow disappeared they all felt amazing. Ed blinked. That had been easily the most powerful healing spell he had ever cast. They all looked so much better too. He smiled, trying to hide his surprise.

Skills: Enhanced Reflexes (passive)





The fire wasn't the type that pulled fear deep from inside Andy. It was green, but it was still like a blast furnace. Veil protected them with her shield. Andy stood up from the section of the wall that she had hit. Taking slow breaths to make sure she hadn't broken a rib or something. Everything hurt, but not in a broken bone sort of way. She looked for the girl with the Tarot deck again and was considering her next move. There was no way she'd get up to the dragon and punch it, which left her with just the people on the ground.

But whatever her next move was going to be didn't matter. S.H.I.E.L.D. arrived. Her heart started racing. Andy had gotten into plenty of scrapes and mild trouble. She had been in and out of foster homes and even a special school, but never in real trouble. Never in go to jail...or worse trouble. Well, there had been that one incident, but no one had blamed her for that except herself.

Would they send her into some other foster program? Or would it be worse? Would she go to jail? Mutant jail at that. She heard rumors. She knew about mutant supermax. Andy didn't want to go there. Her hands were shaking. She forced them into fists trying to keep the shaking down. And looked to Veil. Their next move was up to her. With the guns trained on them she didn't want to move to try to destroy the vaccines, she could only hope that the vaccines just wouldn't be trusted considering what happened in that room. If shooting started she planned to duck under one of the metal tables in the room. It was the best bet for getting to safety.




Rose Buckner


Location: Camelot: Sewers (again)
Skills: (bow hunting - held roll)





Rose smiled. The touch on her back was reassuring and her mother's voice was pleasant. It was nice to hear it from her mother that she knew she was okay. That she cared. Even through everything her mom had cared. She hadn't realized before seeing her mom how much she needed that.

When Hansel told them to hide she slipped into the aclove with the others. She listened to the guards coming, notching an arrow. It would be a little difficult to get an arrow off in the crowded space. Rose was used to having a lot more open space and she didn't want to hit any of the group.

[hider=held roll]If Rose has a clear shot she is going to shoot one of the guards if they notice the group. (Bow hunting)[/color]




Colby Jackson


Location: Camelot
Skills: Slight of hand





Rosalia fought back. Colby had expected that so he had been able to keep her from getting him too bad. Though she did pin him. There was a whole lot going on. With the dog barking and people yelling. "Oh shut up no one gives a shit." He was about to try to get out of the pin when Merlin came over and put him in a pair of handcuffs with Rosalia.

"Hell no!" He yelled. "I refuse to be handcuffed to her." He said. He knew the basics of getting out of handcuffs. It was a simple trick, just involved dislocation of your thumb. The handcuffs were on tight so he was unable to do it. He was thankful for the time he had studied normal magic. Now he just had to spend the time to learn magic in this world.






Location: Jersey? Who goes to Jersey?
Skills:





Niah nodded. A lot. She nodded at Dr. Larson telling her to not share about the multi-verse experience she had with others. She nodded at the explanation about why the Skrulls were trying to take over Earth. Would that make it a strategic place for the Kree too? Would Earth become a battleground between two highly advanced races? They had to keep that from happening. Humans weren't really ready for an outside threat like that. Heck, they were barely able to handle the differences of mutants and inhuman from themselves. She did not want to think about what humanity would be like if they realized there were body snatchers out and about.

When the ship landed and the ramp lowered Niah said, "Thank you. I'll happily talk with you more about my experiences sometime." Then she went down the ramp. She spotted the gathering group and waved. Rolling the wheelchair that was sometimes a leg carefully. "Hey Sparky! You found Raynor. Hi Amelia, turns out things were totally funky, and jumping out a window probably was the sanest thing you could do." She was clearly still a little high. She waved at everyone else joining them.

"Raynor did getting kidnapped by shapeshifting-aliens get the chip off your shoulder?" She asked, grinning, showing that she was mostly joking with Raynor. Somewhere between three realities, her sister being a multi-dimensional terrorist, and demon bear Niah seemed to stop being so tense, or maybe it was the drugs in her system. It was probably the drugs in her system, which were painfully starting to wear off. "We fought a demon bear that fed off fear and it ruined my leg." She said and held up the stump for the others to see.

"Where is Maria? Oh and Sparky you've got to check out this wheelchair later. You're gonna love it. It is cooler than any sci-fi book I've ever read." Niah had honestly not read much recently, her life was more sci-fi than she could handle. Escaping into a sci-fi novel was not what she considered fun at the time being.

Matt hadn't unbuckled at any point after they took off again. He had come to the decision that he wouldn't ever be unbuckled when Hawkeye was flying again. Even though he hadn't been tossed around the ship he had seen enough of the others do just that. When the ship finally landed he was happy to be getting off. "You might not need a vacation, but I think I'm going to take one. Go home and just enjoy some hockey or something." He told Bonnie grinning, before leaving the ship after Cass.

Niah was rambling at Sparky as he walked up. Cass was already there. It was dumb but he had liked her kissing his hand. It had been a sweet tender moment when right now nothing seemed so vulnerable. He hoped he hadn't been wrong to decide to trust the group completely. He hoped that Cass was really Cass and hadn't been replaced, he wouldn't want to have happy memories like that with someone who wasn't his girlfriend.

Andy nodded thankfully at Crane. She smiled at Arthur when he said he would stay. It was a relief. Maybe he was starting to realize that this was the best choice? She wasn't certain but she was glad he was staying. Though she wouldn't make him come with her to look at the records. That probably was going to be boring even though it was her little mission.

She did glare at Niah though. The older girl was being mean on purpose she thought. There was no reason to be that graphic. Andy kind of understood why she was doing it, but it wasn't nice. She didn't have anything to add, though she wondered why the Nancy lady was telling Niah to bring her armor. Why wouldn't she? They were going into a battle it only made sense to wear armor.

The madness emanating from the Labyrinth was cloying. Emily could feel it, nearly tangible. Her fingers twitched. There was so much power so much insanity. Her Father tended toward being on the trickster side of things, or revenge, or what was much more common the madness of pleasure and ecstasy. This was not that type of madness. This was true insanity. The kind that would drive a person to rip out their eyes and organs in an attempt to escape it.

Nausea washed over her. She felt unsteady. Felt the glare from Waverly. That anger. It would be turned. It would fester. And Emily would feel it growing. It was created by something so much larger than her, than any of them. She wanted to reach through and pull Waverly to safety but she couldn't. Even without Nancy's decree, Emily couldn't touch the Labyrinth. For the others, it was as it had been designed. For her, it could easily burn through her. Manipulate her. Turn her against what she was and what she believed in.

Emily back farther away from the hole. How had it been so close? How had she not felt it sooner? Her body wrenched and she vomited. Nausea didn't pass. At least she was already in the sewer if she was going to vomit anywhere. She would rather collapse dead right there than take another step toward the hole and the danger it represented.

Niah grinned at Nancy, a sort of 'trust me' mixed with 'got it one' grin. "Believe me I had no intention of being on a flying ship without it." Her voice carried no fear of heights, she didn't have that, it instead gave the impression that she didn't trust things that flew. That she didn't trust knowing where her feet were placed. She was part river leaving the Earth wasn't in her nature.

Niah turned to Alannah, "I would appreciate a tour. Might as well do that now during the calm." She didn't have to finish the phrase for anyone to know that she expected the worst that the Titans could throw at them. Her mind was racing over the possibilities. They needed to protect the gem. The soil from the pit was involved. A war unlike any seen on the Earth since before Rome had paved its first road was around the corner.

Her clothes were back. Her jacket was on her. Thank goodness. She didn't know what she would have done if she had lost her jacket. This dude was annoying. Had he actually made her clothes go away but it had failed? Or just made her think that? She didn't know but the dude was still a jerk.

There was a lot going on around her, but Andy was used to that. She was used to screaming crowds and betting and cheering and booing. This just involved more fire, and apparently, buildings popping out of no-where with actual dragons on them. She had to admit that was a cool power. But the ring was her life she didn't think she'd ever trade her powers for something else.

Empath was still standing, even if he was being a huge wimp and cussing up a storm about the minor amounts of damage Andy had done. That was the annoying part she knew she could have hurt him worse than she had so far but he was acting like he had never been hit before in his life. He couldn't take a punch at all.

Her hand was free again though. She ducked in and swung, but he dodged her. He didn't have much space to maneuver now that there was an actual tower in the room shooting up and out of the building. She used that to her advantage pressing in on him and swung a nice right hook into his face. Her skin sparking with just a little thought and he crumpled to the ground. Andy watched him for a second to make sure he was still breathing then turned to assess and see who her next target should be.

The Kid Omega guy was down. Empath was down. That left Domino and Tarot. Tarot was the one throwing the cards that made the wilds stuff appear (including hellfire). If Andy could knock her out too then they'd only have one person by themselves without any card tricks to deal with. Andy moves in and before she can get close enough to even try to hit Tarot the dragon's tail whips out from no-where. Even with her enhanced reflexes, there was no dodging that.

Andy soared through the air hitting a wall that was conveniently in the way. She slid down the wall and sat on the floor trying to catch her breath. That had been cool but it hurt a lot. She'd have to be more careful if she got another chance to get back into the fray of things. For now, she was just trying to see straight and breathe again.

Things were looking bad. More than one person dropped and Ed wanted to heal both of them. He didn't think he could and maintain his concentration on the shield. But the choice was made for him when Gwen unceremoniously picked him up and dropped him by Mary. Neil was standing up?...what?

"I don't have to be on top of her." He told Gwen. It helped but wasn't a necessary part of healing. Hell, as long as he had a piece of her he could do it from the other side of the planet. There was plenty of blood though. He had everything he needed. She was breathing, but it sounded...awful. He closed his eyes and started concentrating. A piece of his mind keeping up the shield around the civilians. If a tsunami came in they'd be safe.

Marygold would start to knit back together. Strands of orange turning into flesh. It wasn't perfect. But she wasn't going to die right there and then. His hands were shaking. Too many close calls for this group. Had he started to care for them? He had sworn off that sort of thing and here he was worried about loosing them. Neil, Bethany, and Marygold. All much too close to death.

"You can't know or predict everything. But honestly like thumbs up, dude." Niah smiled and gave Oliver two thumbs up. "Other than Thor. Though I've never met him, cause he was dead, he's better now. I did meet his daughter though. Oh and his niece. I think, honestly, I have no idea how the family tree works for them. Like is Runa his aunt? Or like a third cousin twice removed? Definitely met his daughter though. But really that could have not happened? There are three realities bumping around my nogging. I'm certain Runa and Klara was in one of them. I hope they are doing okay. Did Runa find Lance again?"

Niah cut herself off, she was rambling. It was like getting your wisdom teeth removed, zero filters, she had to pull herself together. Yes. I know at least one Asgardian. Though only one would reasonably be here." She frowned, that meant Sparky had found Raynor. And she hadn't helped. She had been too distracted with the damn Hill's laws that she hadn't helped her friend in need. She had fucked up. "He's kind of a jerk, but he's better than some other people I know. Do you see someone with dark hair and a massive chip on his shoulder?" They'd have to find Flynn too she supposed. Did that mean others who had been taken by the Skrulls were still alive too?

"The Skrulls when they take people, what do they do with them? Like they don't kill them do they? And why? Like if they keep them what's the point?" She asked Dr. Larson. "Why do they do it anyway? Like what is the point of taking over people and the government of a world? I don't get it, the motivation."

Matt was strapped in this time. He hadn't unstrapped after he had sat down. He reached over and took Cass's free hand. The team was reuniting. The tensions would be high, he knew that. Everyone was upset, with good reason. They'd have to talk it through. For now, though they could just appreciate that the Secret Warriors would be in the same room again.

"We'll get through this Bonnie. We can get a plan made and maybe some food." He smiled. Food was good for making people feel better. That and tea, but that was the British in him. Consider Cass was also British she might enjoy a good cuppa too. Hopefully wherever Hawkeye was taking them had a stove, tea and food (in that order). He was normally a coffee person but wanting tea meant he was stressed too.
