"Dad," Mandy gave her dad a quick hug. "We are fine, a little scared. A man tried to get into my car. But Hermes said the man had died. There are a ton of police on the road. I don't know if we should go out." She signs quickly to her father. She gathers the bags from the trunk, suddenly thankful she had gotten extra toilet paper like it was 2020 again.

Mandy went inside waving Hermes to enter the house fully. She shook her hand with a K-hand shape, telling Hermes to head to the kitchen. Once inside the house she gathered the cat items and opened a can of food for the kitten. The poor thing must be starved. She had no idea how long it had been since it had eaten. She took the kitten from Hermes and let it eat.

She checked her phone remembering that she had been texting her friend, Kristian. She saw the group text from her dad, and then switched to the chat with Kristian. "Hey, I think the rumors are true. Stay safe. Things are dangerous." She texted to her real quick.

"We should name him." She signs, mostly to herself. Then she looks up at her dad. "A kid at Hermes' school was biting people, he attacked Hermes, but he is okay, he didn't get hurt." She started organizing the kitten stuff. She made sure that the bag was ready to go if they needed to leave. Mandy was nervous about what was going on.

"I do have her hair for healing. I could use it for a tracking spell. But that just gives general direction." Ed says, most of them should know that because any who had been helping Lance look for Bruce knew the flaw of Ed's tracking spell.

"Give me a moment to get it together." Ed took a couple bites of his sandwich and pulled out a small box with several vials in them. Each of the vials were carefully labeled with the names of each of the X-Men. He had made sure after their last trip to space to collect hair from the others. It had become too much to just let sit in his pocket so he had gotten a special box to keep them organized in.

As he finishes casting the spell the small compass snaps to the south and pulls. "Ah, she is south of here, and pretty far away." He explains.

"Cool!" Andy said, then she ran over to Stella. "Hey, Kristin asked me to go on a walk with her and some others. Want to join?" When Stella agreed, Andy bounced on the balls of her feet.

"Let's go, they are waiting for us." She said, and whistled for Chocolate to follow her. She went over to Kristina's table where she was waiting. "Stella said yes." If that hadn't been obvious from the exchange.

"Thank you." Niah nodded.

In Nancy's tent she was surprised that Nancy wasn't there, but only slightly. She let Joanie roost on her shoulder and gave her chin scratches.

"Miss Joanie, where would Nancy be? Do you know?" She asked the little dragon as she exited the tent having no desire to invade her friend's privacy. "She knows today is important and hasn't been shirking her duties, so where has she been off to." Niah says, mostly to herself.

Andy nodded. Letting Zari decide that she wanted to continue. She was worried about Zari, but she wasn't about to tell her what she could and couldn't do.

"Let's go up the stairs. It'll be quieter." Andy says heading for the stairs. She rubbed a bit at her head where a bump had appeared. She had been dead while being dragged down those steps, but it hadn't been long between death and her resurrection. Andy pushes those thoughts aside and focuses on climbing the stairs.

Entering the Framework room she spots Arcade. Feeling energized by the soul of her former classmate Andy whispers something in pseudo-Latin and her hand moves in a complicated gesture. A ghostly, skeletal hand appears and shoots from her hand clasping around Arcade's arm. His skin, under the ghostly hand, darkens.

"Hey asshat. You forgot something." Andy snarls and starts moving more into the room.

Putting the car in park. Mandy looked around the neighborhood. She was shaking a little from the chaos and she didn't like how much police activity they had seen on their way. She didn't even hear the sirens that were farther away.

Mandy wasn't certain how to process what Hermes was saying, she understood him fine. She had long been exposed to his clumsy signing, and even while driving she could glance at him and fill in blanks of what he might have said if she did miss anything.

"I've got stuff for the kitten in the trunk. I'm going to grab that you two head right in." Mandy told Hermes. She got out of the car and headed for the back to get into the trunk. She grabbed the couple of bags of things she had gotten for the kitten, slinging the travel backpack over one shoulder.

Mandy had plans to harness and bag train the kitten so if...when she adopted it out it'd be more desirable.

"Hmm, that's been a few days now." Ed frowns, finishing making his sandwich. "I hope she is okay. Do you think we should be concerned?" He asked the group at large.

Ed thought about where the others might be, and it was likely they were outside at this point. "We can head outside next I think. It is nice we got a big group already." Ed was still frowning looking concerned about why Mary would not be around after so long. It wasn't normal. He hoped that if there was an issue she wouldn't be afraid to ask for help.

Driving and signing, or watching the passenger sign, is a knack. A skill most Deaf people learn really quickly. Mandy had grown up with both parents signing all the time in the car so it wasn't anything new for her. She could keep an eye on the road and Hermes' hands. It helped that he was a slow signer too.

"So, they are cannibals?" Mandy asks confused. She fingerspells the word cannibal, figuring 'man eating' or other combinations of signs she could come up with would probably be confusing to Hermes. She made sure to fingerspell slowly. "But you said dead, how is he walking?" She adds, this question is signed more quickly.

Mandy sees her phone flashlight flash, letting her know she has a text, but she certainly isn't going to look at it right now. At least it is close to home and she can look at it there. She does frown at all the emergency vehicles around.

"You should let your parents know who you are with, and that you are okay." Mandy adds, waving to Hannah to let her know she means her.

"Sure. I'll join. Do you mind if I ask Stella if she wants to join?" Andy had stabilized, especially after Demi had come back safe and sound. But she still hung out with Stella more often than not. The two had bonded. The streak of white in her hair was a testament to that.

She finished her food, minus the bit she scrapped off, as an offering to her dad. She still felt weird about that. Thinking of him as dad. She had realized that he had been the one to give her her first knife. He had given her a chance of fighting her first monster with that knife. Andy had never felt more abandoned by him then anyone else. Her mother's husband pissed her off, now that she knew the story. And she didn't blame her mother either anymore. Sure she wished Zeus had pointed her towards camp sooner, but she was already one of the younger campers at 10, soon to be 11 in a couple more days.

"Make sure she gets some breakfast. But otherwise that is all. I'll see if I can find Nancy before the trial begins. I trust her to be there on time." Niah trusted Nancy with her very life and soul. Even now as she could see her friend falling apart at the seems. And there was nothing Niah could do to fix it. Nothing to make things better. Not until they got Mads back. And even then Niah was certain that her best friend was gone.

Niah hadn't even mentioned the vision about her sister. About how certain she was that her sister was dead and among those who claimed the Norse gods as their parentage. The focus had been on getting Mads back. On keeping New Rome, in it's broken state, afloat. She had helped as much as she could, as much as she was willing to. But Niah did not want the praetor's robes. Someone else would eventually have to pick up the mantles. Niah knew that once she was able she'd look for Dalisy. It was part of why she hadn't been willing to pick it up even knowing Nancy was there. Also taking the role officially would concede that Mads wasn't coming back.

She shook her head, and started off, first to Nancy's tent, even though she knew Nancy wouldn't be there.

Andy childishly stuck her tongue out at the mangled robotic corpse. "Thank you. Was she a robot the whole time?" She asked mildly curious. Then turned and looked at Zari. "Hey, are you okay?" She stepped in closer to Zari to offer support if she needed it.

"You can stay here if you need I'll go take care of Arcade, and then you can come up and help get the others out of the computer." Andy knew she couldn't get everyone out of the Framework. But she didn't want to stress Zari with fighting if she needed a moment.

Mandy didn't hear Hannah, but she saw Hermes' insistent "drive." So she did. The car had been on, so it didn't take much to put it into gear and get out of there. "CAT!" She yelled, actually vocalizing, since she was distracted driving. And with the hand that held the kitten, she shoved it at Hermes.

There was no way the kitten wouldn't be upset about it, but she wanted both hands to drive. Holding the kitten hadn't been the best idea to drive under normal circumstances, but it was a chill-friendly kitten. She did have a carrier for it, but that was in the back in a bag. She'd transfer the kitten to it if needed.

Now that she had a free hand though she signed "What happened?"
