The being's magnetic field grew stronger. Anything metal would definitely feel the pull towards it. It's gaze turned towards the newcomer followed by it's old potential meal. Then without warning it fired at the three people.


Gidget was happy to see that Ako was okay, and that he had something of a plan to deal with the creature. She was even happier when her power picked up on the sudden fluctuation in the creature's magnetic field. The tug on her turned her attention back towards it just in time for her own EM field to match the creature's lightning and absorb it.

Trinity clenched her fist and grit her teeth and Freya went on about the events that happened two weeks ago now. The more she went on it felt like all her efforts were simply unnecessary and she lost her power for nothing. On another day she might have laughed about how Freya would her 'kick her a** back to life'. This was the last thing she wanted to hear, hear how she failed in every way and as a result lost, as far a she knows, her connection to her ancestor and her power. Then she posed her question with concern. "Oh so now you want to know if the failure is okay... here's my answer!" she hung up on Freya and left her phone behind and walked out the door.


Freya was absolutely dumbfounded. She used to always get on to Trinity to show some backbone when something pissed her off. Now she just got hung up on by her former student. The funny thing was, she wasn't even mad about that.

What did make her mad is that something had to have happened in the last two weeks to make her so unsure of herself. Failure? How did she get that notion?

She turned to Theonis and called out, "Hey, pretty boy!"

She waited for him to turn around before lobbing his phone back at him.

"She's in Valhalla. I could hear it's tell tale alarm sounding in the back. I can get us there."

"Now, before we go, maybe you could explain to me why Trinity is so intent on thinking she is some sort of failure. She wasn't like that when we had her as a student. This defeatist bullshit is something that has to have cropped up in the last few weeks."

Theo hoovered back to Freya when she called for him.

"Thanks" He said as he accepted his phone.

"Well it certainly isn't because of me if that's what you're implying. I honestly don't know. I don't know what happened at the warehouse when she first fought you. I only arrived later but she said she was losing her edge." Theonis told Freya." Then there was Gidget regaining her body again but chose to alter her memories so they don't match with Trinity's anymore. Now she thinks Gidget forgot all about her or something crazy like that. Followed by her losing both the position as head of Valhalla and of Security plus the fact that the new guy now branded her a traitor. Then there is that whole ancestor crap combined with her taking your demon and losing her own power. I'd say she had it rough. I haven't really had time to talk to her about it."

"But I will talk to her about it. Because right now I need to be there for her. So until she is ready to talk to you about it....you hold your tongue. Got it? Because I think it doesn't matter what you say to her right now. It's only gonna make things worse. Also there won't be many places to chose from in Valhalla since the new guy made sure it was hard to access through the shadows."


"You okay hun?"

"You okay hun?"


Trinity heard the voice come from behind. She turned, annoyed, the hood only left her mouth revealed, "What do you think the answer is?! Why bother asking the question if you know that there's something wrong.... Regardless it will all be fixed when I get out of here." She turned away and continued heading toward the garage.

Freya's eyes went wide and she craned her head around while saying, "Hold. My. Tongue?! Oh Heeeeeeell to the f**k no."

She then walked up to a few inches away from him and looked up. "Let's get some thing clear. Slick: A. I wasn't inferring s**t. You've been with her, in who knows what capacity, for the last few weeks. I've missed out on some s**t due to being dangled like a f**king puppet because of being born part wolf."

"B. My brother and I know Trinity better than almost anyone. We were there when she was scared of herself. We were there for her when her mother died. We spent the better part of a decade in that negative wasteland called the shadow realm. So I think I know when to back the f**k off and give her space when she needs it."

"C..."
At this point the fur on her ears calmed, as did some of the tension in her body. "C. I tend to let my mouth move ahead of my brain. It's a bad habit, but one that Trinity is aware of. I'll apologize to her the first chance I get. It wont be the first time, and probably not the last."

She took a few steps back and took a deep breath. "You seem like a descent enough guy. If Trinity trusts you, than so do I. But if you eeeever tell me what to do like that again I will knock you sideways. Got it?" She said the last bit with the same tone and look that Theonis had given her.

After her lengthy browbeating she took a moment to assess the situation. After a few seconds she sighed with some frustration and admitted. "I can't get us into Valhalla. At least, not as I am now."

"I'm about to let my wolf side have control. Don't worry, she's like a big puppy. She can do things with shadows traveling that I can't. She can't reverse the change herself, so I'm trusting you to take care of her. If she gets critically injured, she can't repair her wounds in the shadow realm like my brother and I can."


She held her hand out to Theonis and asked, "We good?"

"Sounds like the easy way out to me." Liv shrugged."Kind of selfish. Don't know your story but don't worry. I'll look after that hottie of yours if you're abandoning him as well."

All of the sudden Liv found herself with Trinity's forearm across her clavicle and thrusted against a wall.
"1. Lay a finger on Theonis and I'll come back here and make you regret it. I may not have my power anymore but I'm far from harmless with the many years I've trained.
2. It's not the easy way. It's the only way. You think I WANT to leave this home I have for 15 years!?!? I leave because I know I'm useless here, I'm useless for what Valhalla needs regardless of lack of powers.
3. Yeah you don't know the story. So keep your nose out of this blondie!"

She lets go and continues to walk off. "Now just leave me alone!"  
PostPosted: Tue Jan 21, 2014 11:31 am
"Hey! Ow" Liv managed to yelp as Trinity slammed her against the wall.

"You think you can scare me like this? Fine go. Whatever. See if I care. Seems only fitting I suppose for someone branded as a traitor to run away." Liv responded and walked away herself.


Theo was rather surprised by Freya's reaction. Maybe Trinity got copied some of that. He didn't back off or anything but he was...pleasantly surprised.

"Feisty one aren't ya? I kinda like it. If Trin could be a little more like that...." He chuckled. " Yea, we're good."

"Wait, how am I supposed to get her to reverse herself? Also, I can still fly us there. May not be as fast as shadow traveling but still...we are close to Valhalla. Plus I can go at least Mach 1."

The fur on Freya's ears and tail frizzled up at the mention of flight. "Eh heh...that's not gonna happen. I don't do flying. Besides, we need to get as deep into Valhalla as quickly as possible. We may meet resistance if we go in any other way."

"As far as getting Okami to change back, you can't. The transformation will revert in two hours all on it's own. I'm just letting you know what her limitations are."

"Okay, here I go. Oh! I almost forgot. She's a hugger, so...be ready for that."


Freya took a few steps back and folded her hand together in the zen position. She closed her eyes and concentrated on becoming the wolf within. It didn't take long for visible ki to begin wrapping itself around her in a sphere, starting from her feet. It cocooned her and spun quickly for a few seconds before bursting. In Freya's place was a she-wolf with human hair.

Okami opened her eyes and yawned, displaying her long tongue and sharp teeth. She looked up at the sky and noticed that it wasn't a new moon night. She whined and audibly muttered, "Crap...she's gonna want me to do dangerous stuff I bet."

Her dark nose twitched as she sniffed out the person in front of her. Previously oblivious to his presence she looked at him and titled her head curiously. "Who're you?" she asked, "You have Trinity's smell on you."

The being's magnetic field grew stronger. Anything metal would definitely feel the pull towards it. It's gaze turned towards the newcomer followed by it's old potential meal. Then without warning it fired at the three people.


Deora could feel the metal flask at her hip pulling itself towards the creature as she undid the cap, and was further surprised to feel even the metal eyelets on her shoes tugging towards it. She was suddenly glad she didn't have any piercings. Just as the thought formed in her head to wonder what the being was doing to get this effect, she noticed Ako stepping forward. She though maybe he had more metal on him, and was being pulled more strongly, but when the being fired an attack at the trio and Ako's arm shot as if to catch it, it all fell into place. He shared the thing's power, he could sense it's attacks. She was suddenly confident that this man would keep her from being electrocuted, and her confidence doubled.

Her head lowered, her face set in determination, Deora slowly raised her hands from hip level to shoulder height in front of her, palms up. Her eyes followed the movement, revealing her icy blue glare. While her power was normally not much to brag about, the adrenaline of a life-threatening situation is what really set it off.

As her arms rose straight out in front of her, anything and everything with water in it felt the rising movement. The few ounces in her flask seemed to levitate of it's own volition before moving to join the rising puddle from Catherine's failed attempt. The result was about five gallons of water floating in the center of room, lazily collecting wisps of liquids from elsewhere in the area; a stream from a guard's forgotten cup on a desk, even a few trickles through the ceiling tiles from condensation on pipes. Her look of determination twitched to a bit of a smirking grin and she pulled her hands back, then pushed them forward and up, and though she were tossing a weighted ball. The orb of water jiggled and soared lazily through the air, spreading out to splash heavily on the electrical being. The whole scene took about a second, but her adrenaline drew it out so each detail stood out.

Gidget was happy to see that Ako was okay, and that he had something of a plan to deal with the creature. She was even happier when her power picked up on the sudden fluctuation in the creature's magnetic field. The tug on her turned her attention back towards it just in time for her own EM field to match the creature's lightning and absorb it.


Ako more than felt the electrical draw the being caused, he could almost see it, it was so strong. He could almost make out the tendrils of energy pulling at the metal in the room; the knife and keys in his pocket, the zipper of his jacket, and he knew what was coming. He could see it play out in his mind. Even if it wasn't aiming at the water girl, she would be the worst affected. Ako and Gidget knew how to deal with electricity, but this girl was apparently inexperienced, and worse, her power made her a natural conductor. Without further thought, Ako moved to step in front of her, intent to catch whatever bolt was meant for her.

His relief was hesitant when Gidget caught the bolt instead. He didn't have to protect the water girl, but the one he'd come to protect took the blast full on. He was about to run for her, but instead of scorching her armored suit, the bolt seemed to absorb into it. Knowing Gidget's foresight, he wondered if she'd come up with a system to manipulate electricity as he could. He could sense all kinds of strange fluctuations coming from the suit, masking any kind of life signs he should have been able to pick up. Not knowing if she were alive in there or not, but hesitant to leave his new charge unguarded, he started to call out, but a pull from deep within and all throughout his body made him pause and look towards the pull, to the forming orb of water in the middle of the room. He stood, transfixed as the water girl moved, and the orb flew through the air, spreading out like a net meant to ensnare the electrical being.

Seeing the impending danger the creature bolted upwards into the lights. Into the system again. The attack may have only taken a second but it could be faster than that. It dispersed...for the moment. But it would strike again when it could.

Glad Trinity doesn't turn wolf like that.

"Yeah but I got your back." Theonis mentioned after seeing the transformation. It's funny how fast a person get used to stuff like that. Meta's do the weirdest stuff.

"She's my girl so yeah, I got her smell on me alright. Call me Theo, Hi"

Gidget barely got her hand up and made the first utterance of a profane word before the creature made it's hasty escape. She tightened the grip on her blade out of frustration before returning it to the holster from whence it came. She powered down the EM field and turned to see if everyone else was okay.

Seeing that both Ako and Deora were standing made her day. She rushed to Ako and embraced him. "I was so scared." she whispered.

The she wolf cautiously stepped up to Theonis and began sniffing around him. When she got closer to his pelvis her ears perked up and she went, "Oooooh."

She looked up at him and grinned at him mischievously. "I got it."

Okami straightened up and chimed, "My name's Okami. Let's be friends!"

Without any warning she threw her arms around Theonis and lifted him off the ground. It wasn't threatening in anyway, but she rarely took into consideration how strong she is when delivering her super hugs, This was one of those times.

Sure he was used to all the strange stuff Meta's do but....this was kinda strange. That animal-like Meta's have similar senses and behavior he understood. But wasn't this a little too much sniffing and a little too personal?
He was about to say something before she gave him that knowing grin. He could help but laugh about that." Yeah, it's like that."

Before he could say anything else she gave him a rather strong hug. Enough to lift him off the ground and slowly crush him. It gave Theo a good opportunity to canceling out most of the force. Freya did warn him that she was a hugger but he didn't think it were these kinds of hugs.

"Yeah, okay, let's. But shall we find Trinity now? You haven't seen her in a while have you?"
