Rose paused for a moment out of the soon-to-be very hot room to orientate herself. Cassi was shot by an arrow, though. Layla threw a dagger quicker than Rose could get her bow back up. She knocked an arrow and took aim at one of the other guards. They were going to be fighting their way out of here.

"Cassi, you okay?" Rose hadn't forgotten the cute little flirt from Cassi, and she had wanted to respond, but now didn't seem the best time. The room behind them shook with the explosion they had set up.

"Exit. Where?" Rose half shouted. They needed to get out of there now. Even if they had to run with the guards following them, if they fought each set of guards, it would take them too long to escape. The arrow went wide. She cursed to herself and knocked another arrow. This time going wide in the other direction. She apparently had been more rocked by the explosion than she anticipated. Her third arrow, while it did hit her target, it did minimal damage. What a waste.

"Looks like Robin Hood's men are off to do something. Want to go with them?" Colby leaned over and asked Maddie quietly. Maddie nodded. Colby stood up from his semi-leaned position.

"You guys going on patrol? Mind if we join?" Colby asked. He walked over to them. He was ready to leave the tower, at least for a bit. The place was getting crowded. He didn't want to go inside where everyone was gathering. And wandering off on their own was a dumb idea. At least this way they'd have back up.

"Remind me not to heal you next time you're hurt then, Bethany." Ed rolled his eyes at her comment but smiled a bit. "The color doesn't matter. What matters is that it was once part of you." He was not going to get into the details of how his magic worked. The conversation with Runa played in his mind. He wondered how she was doing. He took the strand Perry gave him, put it into another small bottle, carefully labeled it, and returned it to his pocket.

"Okay, but we were stuck in space when the whole Genosha thing happened." Ed says, getting a bit annoyed and honestly confused. How was what happened there their fault? Bethany and Perry both had good points too. Why bother with them if they hated them? If they hadn't, would they have even gotten involved with what was happening here? Possibly not. Unless someone asked them to, if they had only taken people willing to join, it would just be Magneto and all those who wanted to be in space. Ed realized they were stuck in space again. He was really done with being stuck in space.

"I don't mind waiting. It is these machines. There was some senior fiddling with them. Apparently, you can play video games and stuff in them." That was really what Andy had picked up about the machines. She wanted Zari to check them out because Zari was good with machines. She'd be able to explain them in a way that Andy could understand. Also, she really needed to figure out what that SuperLink thing was. Maybe Percy could explain it. Leah hadn't gotten a chance. She didn't think her roommate could be chill about it if she asked her...Mai was a lot. But so far, Andy liked Mai. Andy didn't know Madalyne well enough to gauge what her reaction might be to the question. Superlink seemed like it was something she should know about. Even being a transfer student.

"If you want. It is in the gym." Andy told Madalyne. She wasn't against her joining. Zari and Percy might be if they wanted to talk about private stuff. If they did, maybe Andy could distract Madalyne or something so the two friends could catch up. Andy had plenty of questions about the school and the other students. It'd be good to ask someone who had been going here.

"I don't want to fight even one." Andy said. She picked up her stuff as the horse banged into the door. She wouldn't be proud of the scream that came out of her. But she didn't notice it. She bolted in the direction that Damon had indicated.

Andy was not going to sit around and let herself be eaten by horses. Horses were supposed to be vegetarians. They ate oats and stuff. Andy had never been much of a horse girl, and this was definitely ruining any chance of that happening. She'd stick with her Griffon and dog.

Niah snapped awake. As she stood, she drew her sword. She looked at Jason, who was standing between her and the door. He seemed determined and ready to do something. She figured whatever it was might be interesting. So if he looked back at her to confirm she was listening, she nodded.

Quickly she grabbed her bag and put it on. Fighting with the bag on wouldn't be fun, but it meant if they had to run, she'd have it with her. She could only hope that there was only one cyclops. She wondered how it had followed them so precisely. Had it been cyclopes in the restaurant? Or was this the original husband of the one they had killed?

"I do not." Ed said. At the same time, his voice carried a tone of exasperation. He smiled a little. "Nice to meet you, Frederick Flynn. My name is Edus Penior, but everyone calls me Ed. Yes, I am from Wales. Cardiff, to be exact." The last part held the weight of thousands of deaths at the hands of an alien attack. Most of his family had died in that attack. He took a hair from Flynn and added it to a jar, carefully labeling it with F. Flynn.

"Perry? May I have a hair in case you need healing and I cannot get to you?" She hadn't told him if he could have a hair of her's yet. They continued on.

"Hmm. That is a bit reassuring. But I don't know if I wouldn't put it past Magneto to have there be more fighting. We should be prepared for the possibility. We might not be attacked on sight, at least." Ed checked himself over to see if there were any new marks or something that might indicate that if the others showed up, they'd be discernable from the majority of the place.

Andy nodded. "Yeah, one of them was giving me 'advice.' I guess that's fine, but not in the first 30 seconds of meeting someone." Andy smiled a bit, wanting to tell Percy that she had literally bought all of her clothing in the 2020s. But with Madalyne there, she wasn't comfortable with saying it.

"It went about how expected. Well, a bit better than expected."She said to Madalyn, responding to her question about how the reading had gone. Her hand touched the pocket that held the key. "She gave me some good advice on how to deal with a major stressor in my life. And told me not to lose myself to trying to fit in."

She smiled as Zari joined them. Andy looked at the crown thing in her hand, curious about it. Percy headed into the tent, and she waved as he went in. She figured Zari would want to wait for him to come back out to continue their conversation.

"Oh, Zari. I want to show you what I found earlier with Leah. Or I suppose Leah knew about it, but it is cool. You'll find it neat."

"Fine, hand-to-hand it is." Rose said, securing her bow. Good thing she hadn't drawn another arrow. She moved over to where Rosalia was being nearly strangled by one of the guards and punched him. The man backed off. And Rose smiled brightly at him. "Why don't you pick a fight with someone else?"

"Rosalia, go." She reiterated. It hadn't been Rosalia's fault. The dude had gotten to her before she could move. To give her some time, Rose threw another punch. Apparently, the guy was actually paying attention this time. Not that Rose was the best at boxing, anyway. The bar's bouncer had taught her on quiet days.

Cobly quite enjoyed the kiss from Maddie. He smiled back. "There is still the shower we both need. We can see if Merlin knows if there's a place for us to do that. I don't know how good the indoor plumbing is in this tower." The city had had running water. But this place was pretty removed.

He didn't want to go too far. The others could be back at basically any time. He noticed two of Robin Hood's men go inside the tower but didn't hear them. He did pause, watching, to see if they were bringing news of something the group would have to get involved in. Another dramatic thing. Some other fire they now had to deal with.

Andy snapped awake, her hand on her dagger, ready to pull it into its complete form. She stood up and joined Madalyne. "What are they?" She asked. Horses didn't hiss. Also, the likelihood of normal horses in the Labyrinth felt basically impossible. She was no Posiden's kid so horses weren't her thing. She had Griffin. However, that was back at the camp. Part of her wished she had brought it along too.

She looked over to Damon to see if he knew anything. If anyone did, it stood to reason he would. However, Mary was someone who Andy trusted a lot with information. Mary had spent most of the summer and year leading up to this quest teaching her everything she needed to know about being a demigod. But obviously, there were still some gaps in her knowledge. At least she could read now.

Niah simply waved off Jason. She missed her cot, but she was not going to risk sleeping on a bed at this point. It'd be too comfy, and she wouldn't want to get up ever again. Just sink into it and pass out. The first night back at camp after a quest was always like that. Also, she hadn't stayed in hotels normally while on quests, especially on the one with Nancy.

As Niah fell asleep, she decided she would see about getting an Iris message to Nancy and Mads and check in on them the next morning. She missed her friends. Jason and Stella were fine. But it wasn't the same. The hours on the train had been sent in near silence. But she remembered the train ride with Mads and Nancy. She had learned how to use the Mist on that trip. As she fell asleep, she dreamed of dragons, gold, and long stretches of road.

"I agree." He said in response to Annie's mention of needing to be careful. They had no idea what this place was. At least they had an idea of where they were now, thanks to the Phoneix. Something Ed did not feel comfortable totally relying on. Having that with them was a bonus, but they couldn't trust it.

"That is a concern that has crossed my mind." Ed responded to Neil's voicing something that had been bothering him. He glanced at the new member, the non-X-Men member, of their group. At least it seemed he wasn't a totally unknown element. And that the group seemed to trust him. Well, he worked for SHIELD, so he had that going for him.

"If we are at risk of more fighting. I think I should get some hair samples from those I don't already have hair from." Ed started speaking directly to the SHIELD agent and the young woman who had just joined the X-Men, whom he hadn't really talked to yet. "I'm the group healer. However, I have to either touch you to do it or have a part of you. Hair is the easiest. If you are comfortable giving me a strand of hair, I can heal you in the heat of battle." Ed learned his lesson from the fight that sent them here. He needed to collect that now.

"Uh, nice to meet you." Andy smiled brightly. "I was getting worried if Zari had any other friends. I'm glad. I've met her parents; I didn't know they knew people here."

"But Zari might be better at telling the story." She didn't know if she should talk about it in front of Madalyne. So far, what she had said wasn't anything different than what Zari and Percy had said.

"Yeah, your friends are a bit intense." Andy nodded, shifting her attention to Madalyne. She couldn't remember if Madalyne was there for Andy's first interaction with the French-sounded guys and that group. "The first thing they basically said to me was to criticize my clothing. I like my clothing.
