Falling from Heaven {SinfulSkills ~ unfallenangel}

Shifting the Jeep into gear, the three headed down the long, winding drive leading away from the mansion. Isabelle chatted away about anything and everything. Jo stole a small glance at Leon from the corner of her eyes and couldn't help but smirk. Sometimes she wondered if Isabelle just liked to hear herself talk when everyone else was silent. The drive was short and it seemed like only minutes after leaving the house Jo was pulling into a parking spot by the coastline. "Here we are," she stated and climbed out, opening the back door and helping Isabelle out as well.

Grabbing the surf boards from the rack on the top, Isabelle squealed and clapped her hands as she looked out over the open ocean. "Go on then," Jo called to the girl. "We'll catch up!" A small ping and a vibrate alerted her to an incoming call. Jo sat the board down against the side of the Jeep and fished out her phone. It was work. "Hello?" She paused as one of the lab technicians alerted her of the new Sea Turtle nest that had been found. She nodded even though she was on the phone and he couldn't see her. "I'll check it out tonight when the sun starts to set. I'm at the beach now about to go surfing. No, I'm not with Carla. No! I'm not alone! Goodbye, Clark!" She hung up with an eye roll.

She tucked the board under her arm and walked around the vehicle to meet Leon. "They found another turtle nest a few miles from here. I told them I'd go mark it when the sun goes down," she explained as they walked across the sand to the small changing area. Once they were changed and ready to go, Isabelle darted into the waves, squealing at the cold water.

"Race ya!" JO called and made a bee-line toward the water, board held out in front of her ready to brace against the waves. As she got deeper into the water, Jo dove under a big wave, pulling the surf board against her chest as she resurfaced. The swell was nice today, and she knew that they were going to have a blast. She looked over her shoulder at Leon, grinning and brushed the salty, wet hair out of her eyes.

I am really sorry for my unexplained absence. I have had a family emergency and will be on and off irregularly. Sorry to just get this started and then turn into a flake. is anyone interested in keeping this going with just a decreased activity?

Stillwater Vale Asylum

Sounds good. If you guys want to head to the conference room I will start on my post.

Nodding slowly, Dr. Greene clicked his tongue against his teeth. "We are going over a new schedule for patients and possibly talking about changing or adding in some new prescriptions for some of the more... Energetic patients. We will briefly go over a few security procedures, but it will all be included in the weekly updated newsletter," he added dryly. "So if you would like to go eat some dinner or finish your shift you can. This meeting is not required."

He clicked his pen inside his coat pocket and followed Kevin out the office door. "Nothing too over the top this time. We will be having our quarterly security meeting with all the guards in a week or two," he added over his shoulder as he headed down the hall to the conference room.

Nodding slowly, she leaned back in her chair and her eyes shifted from left to right, taking in which guards and nurses were present before they got caught noticing things they weren't supposed to notice. "I was only there for a short time," she said pointedly as two guards made their pass around the room, looking for anything out of the ordinary. Once they were out of earshot, she leaned forward and rested her elbows against the table.

"I think they do have a schedule, but it changes up every few months to try and throw us off. Mainly, I think they are carrying supplies to the island. I have a pretty good view of the dock from my room and I only ever see them being unloaded. I never see them loading the ships from the building," she added quietly, her eyes doing another sweep around the room before looking back at the Russian lounging on the couch beside them.

"You? The great Leon, god of wishes, wants to go surfing?" She laughed freely and tossed her head back at the look of momentary insecurity on his face. He really was too cute to put into words. She sat up and let the blankets drape over her shoulders. Rolling her eyes, Jo watched as Leon used his magic to snap clothes on and turned back to her.

"I wish I could just snap my fingers and everything I want just happens," she teased and looked around the room for her clothes. Most of them had been tossed aside without a second thought the night before. A small smile played across her lips as she thought about it. Her cheeks heated and a light pink blush colored her face and neck as she picked up article after article of clothing to get dressed before Isabelle decided to barge right in and demand their attention.

"I'm sure you know who would love to come to the beach with us as well. I'd hate to leave her out on such a beautiful day," she said quietly and nodded toward the door, where Isabelle was undoubtedly listening in. Jo smiled wider and pulled on her jeans and then her shirt. She walked over and laced her fingers through Leon's, giving them a gentle squeeze before leaning over and kissing him lightly on the neck.

Despite the events of the day before, she felt content and happy, even cozy here with him. She had not expected her life to turn out quite like this, but she was glad that it had. The man beside her made her happier than anything else in the world.

I'm really sorry to hear about your puppy. I have recently gotten similar news. And I'm really sorry to all of you guys, but I'm going to have to drop out. School and work and personal matters have really taken their toll on me. :( I hope you guys have a lot of fun with this RP. I hate to leave it. <3

He eyes hardened at Kevin's statement. "Escape?" He pursed his lips and then couldn't help but let out a dry, hard laugh. "Where ever would they go? They're trapped on a bloody island!" He clapped his hands together in front of him and shook his head slowly. "Please keep your ears and eyes open for more intel. I'm counting on you to let me know of any rash plans that are being planned and any escape routes that are being mapped out."

In secret, Dr. Greene knew that several patients were talking about trying to slip through the cracks in security. Quite frankly, he kept security as lax as he did to encourage escape plans. It helped weed out some of his experiments. The ones that were willing to escape usually had something to live for outside the walls and therefore would be missed if they were to disappear one day. He and Dr. Brennan worked strictly on patients that had no one and had nothing outside of their lives behind the white walls of the hospital.

"If that is all?" He asked finally when Kevin said nothing. Dr. Greene stood and straightened out his lab coat. "I have a meeting to prepare for," he said dismissively and picked up a few files that had been lying open on his desk. He straightened up the papers, closed the files, and tucked them neatly under his left arm. Dr. Greene was nothing if not neat, tidy, and organized. Walking to the door slowly, he opened it to allow Kevin to leave. "Unless you plan on attending the meeting."

Jo eyed the large Russian as he entered the room and sat back in her chair. He was an intimidating sight. She had been to Russia a few times and had worked a few missions there, and she knew they were no soft and sweet people. They usually meant business and that business usually meant death. Her lips curled into a small smile and Xander called to him and tried to strike up a conversation with Sasha. Rolling her eyes, she swore that the man would strike up a conversation with a post if it talked back to him.

Surprised when Sasha actually acknowledged them, she looked over her shoulder and brushed the hair from her face. "I was born in North Carolina, but I have lived all around from Paris to Washington DC to England for a short time." She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "I moved around a lot," she concluded blandly and made another move on the board. "King me," she stated with a smirk and winked at Xander. "Too lost in thought to pay attention to our game?" she teased lightly.

Will be on tonight!

Dr. Greene arched his brow at Kevin and looked down his nose at him curiously. "What have you heard?" he asked quietly as he watched the man before him become slightly uncomfortable. "Let's go to my office to discuss this. I have some paperwork and files to collect before the meeting anyway. The walls in this place seem to have ears and listen at the most inappropriate times," he stated menacingly. The truth was, he was the eyes and ears of this entire hospital, and he knew that almost everyone knew that.

They walked quietly to the back of the hospital where Greene's office was located. He picked up a few files that Dr. Brennan had placed on his door. Unlocking the door, he ushered Kevin inside and took a seat on the edge of his desk. "Now. What have you heard between the 'crazies' as you so accurately put it?"

His fingers drummed lightly on the wooden surface of his desk, his eyes scanning over the files in his lap. Xander, Davenport, Jocylin, Fredrick, Peterson, Sasha. He flipped through the papers briefly, waiting for Kevin to gather himself. Dr. Greene pulled out his cellphone and sent Dr. Brennan a brief text as Kevin spoke. 'Davenport. Jocylin. Sasha. Work on those first.'

Jo sat down at one of the tables and rolled her eyes at the man before her. "A one time favor. hmm." she pursed her lips and set up the checker board, giving Xander the red and leaving the black for herself. "I think I will have to consider that offer very carefully before I cash it in," she joked and made the first move.

She looked up and watched the red headed doctor, Dr. Brennan, gaze around the room and observe the patients quietly. Their eyes met momentarily before Jo looked away, refocusing on the game before her. The female doc made her feel just as creeped out as Doctor Greene did. Jo looked back at Xander and nodded over her shoulder. "Red head, ten o clock. Scoping out the place for new victims," she teased lightly, but she knew deep down that it was probably true.
