@wanderingwolf Nah that'll work. Fleur doesn't do manual labor.

Ok, I can get something up tomorrow then.

Any idea what my character would have been doing while all this was going on?

P2e - Threshold of Knowledge

Hey all!

Let me know when a good time to jump back in is as it makes sense storywise. I don't mind waiting.

Perry followed with the others in the direction Mary was surely in. As they got closer, Perry felt an intense push inside her head. As if something in her mind wanted to break free. She could only reason that it was due to Mary's emotions and the inner turmoil and battle her two sides were having.

It was so intense Perry fell to her knees. She took some deep breaths but that didn't calm it down any. "She's battling the Phoenix force in her own mind. There's too many intense emotions going at each other. You all need to stay away from her right now. There's no chance of convincing her in this state!"

Things went from bad to worse as April, darling April, went beserk mode and sent a cyclone inside, launching a few and drenching the rest. Whatever was going on with her was more intense than anything Sabine had seen before. There was only one thing to do and Sabine hated that she had to do it.

She stood up and closed her eyes, sending her mind into April's. If she could poke around just a bit to see what caused this chaos, she could perhaps get through to April and calm her down some. As Sabine picked through the memories she noticed two were highlighted, more intense than the others, almost like they were blocking out any other memory April had. In one, Sabine saw Zelda and what she said regarding Arcade. Sabine didn't fully understand why April was hyperfocused on it. Sabine disagreed with Zelda, but could also see her point.

Sabine then went to the other memory and things started to make more sense.

It was back at the Halloween spooky maze. Sabine only remembered what she saw but now she saw it through April's eyes. April looking at a helmet. Upon closer inspection, Sabine noticed it was Magnetos's. And not only that, but April was wearing it, as if confirming her acceptance of the heritage she had, the blood in her veins. And all of that swirled into a mixture of intense fear and worry.

Not only that, but Sabine was able to put two and two together. April saw Sabine literally shift Arcade's mind. A villain changing in an instant, regret on his face. Combined with April's worry over her becoming a villain herself due to her family, of course she would be scared. Woulld Sabine have to shift April's mind in the future?

Sabine unleashed herself out of April's mind. She knew she had to join Leah and bring April back down. Leah had paved the way somewhat so Sabine tried to climb through the swirling waters only to be blasted back, slamming against the computer set up. She groaned in pain, but stood up. She tried again, barely getting through until she reached April and Leah.

Sabine looked into April's eyes as best she could. She needed to see her so she knew the words that followed were meant.

"April, I get it. I get it now and I am sorry I didn't see it before. You're scared. You're worried about your family and the heritage you share and you saw me alter Arcade's memory to make him regret what he did and that worried you. We are not our family. They may give us life, but that life is ours to take and change and shift into what we want. Their influence may exist, but that is why we fight back. That is why we find each other and form our own family. You are not your family in the same way I am not mine and Leah is not her's. I am sorry for scaring you but I need you to come back to us. We'll get through this and all things coming together."

Verity followed the two men out, periodically checking her phone for texts or updates on what was going on. Her mind wandered to her ex-husband briefly and she debated calling him to see if he was okay. She opted not to. He lost that right when he cheated on her. She hoped it was some illness going around and he and his new girlfriend caught it.

She smiled when the man offered her the front seat, moving that 100-watt smile over to Flynn. "How generous. Thank you. Looks like chivalry isn't dead just yet." Perhaps a poor choice of words given what happened inside, but she let it slide and got into the vehicle's front seat. Once she got comfortable she put her seatbelt on and checked her phone one last time. She was ready for this day to be over and it was still morning. Perhaps when she got home she would take a long bath and catch up on some shows she had been putting off, let whatever was happening run off.

Perry had always wanted to travel. Granted, it was never to space and to a space station meant to be destroyed, but travel was a goal she always had. And now she was here in New Orleans. It wasn't a vacation, she needed to remind herself. They were here to help Mary and save the world and yadda yadda.

That means a new look. Before they left she had changed up her hair and put on a cute outfit. Because, after all, you can't fight crime if you ain't cute.

With the others in tow, they explored the Gardens. Thankfully there were not many people around. That didn't mean much though. "Never been to New Orleans. New York was weird enough," Detective Edward spoke up. "I rarely left the mall most days. Farthest I've been is to Ikea," Barry quickly followed after. Mary Ellen looked around a lot. Ever since they came back she spent a lot of time just....looking at things. It had been a long time since she had been back home to Earth.

Perry remembered Max's words. New Orleans would be a hotbed of spiritual activity. So she closed her eyes and opened her senses. She felt a presence quickly and opened her eyes and saw a woman in front of her. She was dressed in all black but mixed with floral accents and a headdress. "You can see me child?" Perry nodded quickly. The woman smiled warmly and danced around. "Oh blessings to Mawu. I have walked the paths of my home for many years, changes coming and going. But you are not here for me, you are here for the trouble brewing. Oh even in death I can sense the changes in the air. It crackles and sparks with energy."

It had to be Perry. If what the others said was true, Mary would be feeling a strong mixture of emotions. Perry used her other power, Enhanced Empathy, to get a reading. She soon felt a force on her that nearly knocked her down. It was strong and powerful. It was almost like there were two forces at work, one fighting the other. It was hard to tell who was who but she, at least, got a sense of direction.

"I can't fully read her emotions, but they are strong. The direction of Ed's spell is where she is." Perry held her head as she felt a headache coming on. The voodoo priestess still remained nearby. "I'd like to help you child, if you will allow it. I can be of assistance with my gifts. I would like to protect my home if I am capable. My name is Adonatille. Perry could hardly blame her and welcomed her into the fold. It paid to have spirit help, especially in New Orleans.

Verity sighed inwardly as her call went to the busy signal. She should have figured that people would be hailing cabs to get back home and out of the city with whatever the hell was going on. She hung up as one of the patrons offered her a lift to the shop for her car. A lucky meeting. Verity glanced over and saw the man who had ran into her car earlier. He looked like he wanted to be anywhere else and especially away from her.

Which made the decision so much easier.

"Why thank you. I would love a ride to your shop. Truly, thank you so much." She may have laid it on a touch too thick, but she couldn't help herself. It was going to annoy biker guy and that made it all the more sweeter. "Doubt there's much left to do here. Shall we get going?"

Perry listened to the conversations and took in the information provided. She wasn't eager to go back into space so quickly after escaping the last time. Granted this would be her choice. Still, she figured she could be more helpful on the ground in New Orleans than with the Shiar. She could use her emotion powers better, at the very least.

"I think I'll stay here and help the others. Not so much looking forward to going back into space so quickly. Plus, I think my powers would be better suited for the team here than up there." She said pointing up towards the stars. However, she would go where needed. After all, both missions sounded important.

Things sort of fizzled out after she had altered Arcade's memory. The dude was a blubbering mess. She didn't feel bad, after all he had tried to kill them. Well, he actually did. So no she didn't feel bad in the slightest. In fact, she hoped he felt bad for a while an used that for good.

What she hadn't expected was April to look at the situation and begin to freak out. Sabine knew a little, their time spent on the beach together opening up some of the wounds long hidden, but Sabine couldn't quite understand. Was it her fault? Did she somehow trigger April into having a panic attack? Danni urged her to help, but Sabine wasn't in the habit of using her abilities on those she cared for without their consent. "I'm not going to make her breathe Danni. I don't do that without permission." And she figured April wouldn't allow her anyway.

So Sabine did the next best thing she could think of. She sat down next to April, took her hands in her own, and leaned on her. "I'm here, however long you need me. Squeeze my hand if you need to, but take some deep breaths. Don't feel the need to fight back if they come up short, I just want you to breathe. Sit here with me for a bit. We'll get through this."
