Sabrina looked at Timothy and frowned. "Please don't speak ill of the dead" she told him. They were still her parents and she did still love them. "How do you think I felt? Apart of me was relieved that I wasn't treated like Pietro but apart of me hated that. I missed my brother, and I felt that we were just as equal to each other, perhaps that he was able to help people just like me" she said. "Honestly....I felt helpless...in those times, it was obscene for a woman to ever question her parents' decisions or to speak out of term...I probably wouldn've been hung" she admitted to Timothy. "How about you? What was of your life before this" she asked him.

"Hangings...heh, I remember back when that used to be the thing. I hate the end result giving stupid people chains, whips and rope and introducing someone different into their overly esoteric environment. Sickening." Timothy said with a bite of pure disappointment and hint of anger. Turning his electric blue hues up to the jade woman across from him, and forced out a weak friendly grin. After taking in the final slice of his omelette, he laid down the fork and looked at Sabrina with a stare of deep contemplation. His body was rested against the back of the chair and for once, his blank expression showed signs of slight, but growing relaxation.
Intertwining his fingers over his waist, he started to answer Sabrina's question. "My life, unlike yours, isn't filled with indignation, but moreso jelousy on the behalf of Owls. As a child, I was powerful. I showed signs of having control over Electromagnetism so that instantly placed me atop the colony I was born into. My parents, God bless them, were killed by the goons of a fire manipulator. Strange right? Such a great power, but still unable to protect anyone." Timothy found himself staring blankly at the roses that were in the middle of the table. Thanks to Sabrina, those roses have survived for longer than they should. "The last thing that was given to me during my human life were those roses..."
Sitting up now, regaining his serious expression, Timothy placed his intwined fingers atop the table. Exhaling with unease, the herald went on. "Then, there was Guinevere. She came to me during my training as a Herald. Black hair that cascaded like darkness from the sky, amber eyes that glimmered like pieces of gold, skin so soft...so warm....she was the only human I ever found myself involved with. I loved her, but I failed her. The choice was between her and a carefree life or my job which would put her in danger forever and always. I chose my job...and here I am. A better man." The bushy white hair atop the herald's head sparkled and popped as electricty rode it's way to the tips. Timothy stood up and took a rose from the slender necked vase and placed it before Sabrina. "This is for your brother and whoever else you've loved and lost. Let this represent them. I'll get my plate later so leave it where it is. "

Sabrina listened to what Timothy had to say. So he did have more a of humane side to him. When he handed her the rose she smiled slightly. "Oh thank you Timothy..." she trailed. Apart of her still thought about it, but it had been so many years that she wasn't as phased by it as she had used to be. When Timothy was about to leave and told her to leave the plate she looked at it and finished her omelet and followed after Timothy. "Hmmm, I don't know Timothy you chose something I don't think I could have ever done if I had other people...." she said to him. "If my family were to be alive, i wouldn't have became a herald, I would had lived my life and left this Earth a long time ago" she admitted as she fell silent shortly after.

Lucien clapped a little as Vincetn smashed the last target. "Very good." He said confidently. He thought for a moment and wondered if it was just his hand to hand combat he needed work on, no matter who the person was it took years to perfect hand to hand combat, he knew that they didn't have that kind of time, so he should focus on somethign thet'll develope more quickly. He thought for a moment and looked at Vincent. "Vincent how's your powers handling?" He asked as he folded his arms. He wondered how much work it would take, if it was a regular Owl probably more time than they could spare but amara saw something in this one, so he would trust her judgement.
Ever sense the confrontation with the UNS at Che's former house Luca could only remember being transported away, he wasn't sure by who. He thoguht they were somewhere in America, most likely on the East Coast. He looked upward thinking to himself wondering how the others were doing. "It's hard to let go isn't it? Even though it was just a job." He said as he ran his real fingers through his hair. He knew that the job was temporary and that it would only last for a bit longer, but there were a few Owls in particular that he didn't want to necessarily leave, true one of the friends he had made was now dead but that came with his job he knew the risks, it was an occupational hazzard. He smiled a little. On his robotic arm he snapped his fingers a little creating tiny harmless charges of electricity. He thought of what it was he would do next, he had no actual plan and his phone had been destroyed in the fight, not that it would really make any difference he thought.

"Responsibility and family are two different things my dear friend." Timothy said when paused at the door. His hand fell from the entry way. His glare kept forward when Sabrina spoke to him, and as he responded, the direction remained still. "My family didn't live long. They taught me well while they were alive. That taught me that jobs were meant to get done. One of this magnitude needed someone strong. I fit the bill and here I am. If didn't then who would?" And with that said, Timothy proceeded back into the main room and took a seat in front of the massive television once again. He needed something now to take his mind of off his past that seemed to be uncontrollably racing through his already cluttered mind...

((TFP---Raven))
After her little discussion with Soliel, Raven had headed back to her temporary headquarters. She had some serious planning to do. Various Exire Owls came by to drop of a few materials; maps, a TV, a laptop, so on so forth. The French woman was hard at work, determined to keep herself occupied with anything to stop her mind from travelling back to the deceased. “Their vengeance will come in time…” She never thought she would feel the loss of another in the same way that she had when her parents and brother had died. “Damn it…” With her mind unable to concentrate on one solid subject, Raven simply gave up. In a fit of rage she sent everything on top of the mahogany desk crashing to the floor. “That never accomplishes anything.” She rose from the leather chair and stepped out onto the balcony. A strong breeze greeted her and lifted her long strands of blonde hair from of her shouldes it almost seemed to be trying to take away all of her anger...
A small smile played on the corners of Raven’s lips as her mind took her back to the first time she had met Aaliyah and Nathaniel. “It was so long ago…” She had given Nat his name after breaking him out of lab. He was one of the first members in the Fallen Phoenix, and she saw him as a little brother…one she had failed to keep alive. “A gift from god.” That’s what she had said to him, and that was the meaning behind his name. Aaliyah on the other hand had come to her. A princess who wished for a better life for people like her. The big sister of the group who had done so much for the team, who always gave with no expectations of wanting in return. “Whats done is done. The wheels of fate are already turning, and they turn in our favour.” Raven glanced upwards and let out a soft laugh. “Just watch over us. Everything is going to play out the way I want it too.”
“Miss…we have the other documents you requested.” A small voice called from somewhere in the office. Raven turned round and smiled. “Excellent. Lets get to work shall we?” And so the Quaking Owl switched back into business mode and left the freedom of the balcony for the stuffy office in which history will be made….
((TFP---Serena))
Well the good news was that the water had done the trick and woken up the Frozen Owl…the bad news was that he had panicked and ended up clinging to Serena. The Vanishing Owl’s expression remained plain, neither happy nor angry. With gentle hands she pried Kojiro of her torso and patted his head almost mechanically. “Its fine. Get up and dry off. Your breakfast is waiting for you in the living area.” Too be honest, Serena always expected things like that too happen when waking people up with water. So it was as much her fault as it was theirs. Turning on her heel Serena headed to the bathroom to get changed. “Damn kid, he should have woken up the first time I asked him to.”
Once in the bathroom, Serena changed her jumper for a another. It was pretty chilly outside, so dressing warm was the better option. “What the hell am I even doing here? I can not look after such a helpless kid. Argh, man…this is going to take so much out of me.” Shaking her head to clear away those thoughts, Serena walked back through the room and headed into the living area. She took a seat and leaned back. She closed her eyes and simply waited for Kojiro to appear. “Hmm…I guess today is as good a day as any to start on training…” It would push the ice user…but Serena wanted to establish his will power.
((UNS---Daryle))
Daryle couldn’t help but laugh at Genya’s sudden excitement at the mention of breakfast…or had it been because Daryle mentioned science? Probably the latter. “OK! We have out Annie bear, and we have out eager tourist! Lets get going!” Daryle grabbed Genya by the hand and dragged him downstairs. “Annie! We are ready!” If the Breezy Owl had a tail, it would be wagging ten to the dozen at this moment. “Hehehe, away we go!!” The blonde male reached out and grabbed Annie by the hand too and proceeded to lead the three of them outside and off to breakfast…it was only when he got halfway up the road that Daryle stopped “Eh….Annie bear….where are we going exactly?” He rubbed the back of his neck and gave her a sheepish grin. “I have no idea myself…I guess my stomach got the better of me and lead the way…”

L couldnt help but laugh. Seeing his shrunken apprentice was just to funny. Wiping a tear from his eye the herald finally responded., or tried to. Before he could Moli showed more promise, duplicateing himself with light. L grinned wide and crossed his arms. "Well Moli, seems you work best when doing things out of neccesity. Good to know. As for your hight, i said relax. An even temperment and clear mind should get you back to human size....i think. Or you may be stuck fun sized in which case that would be just fine for everyone else." L pulled his glasses back down over his eyes and waited for his student to impress him once more.

Vincent smiled as Lucien clapped for him. "Thanks" he said quietly. Looking at Lucien when he asked him about his powers, he thought for a second. "Well I'm really good at stopping things, I don't have to be scared for them to activate anymore....and comustion, i'm good at that too" he added. "But when were back at the house, I released some sort of orange glow that made multitudes of people explode...then it was the crystal thing that I did to you back at the hotel." he said. "At first when we got here that's what I was trying to do but it hasn't worked yet...maybe this is based off emotion as well" he concluded.
Sabrina listened to Timothy in silence. She said nothing afterwords as she took a seat on the love seat, extending her long body across of it as her feet dangled off the arm of the love seat. As she watched the television, she glanced at Timothy and then towards the ceiling as she said nothing, the silence speaking for the both of them.

Solaris Beauty Evelynn looked at the two young girls as she smiled. "Okay, the next excercises are mind alteration and using a psionic shield" she said. "Basically mind alteration is to alter someone's will or persepctive, attitudes and personality either temporarily or or permanently...though most psychics can only achieve this temporarily" she said. "Okay girls give it a try"
Elle looked at Evelynn and then looked at her sister. "Ummmm Erin you can go first, I want to make sure that I actually understand the concept" she said to her sister, honestly she wanted to see Erin start initiating actions as well. She waited to see if Erin would succeed in the next excercise. (( I'm not exactly sure what Evelynn wants them to do, Solaris. sweatdrop How exactly does she expect them to put an idea into the head of someone? just glare at them? sweatdrop )) ==== Mahareshi Rorsch "No time for training huh? I don't think you've met my good friend Noel. Anyway, yes Anya, I am here to see Will, but he's currently with another patient at the moment." Che retorted to the loudmouth woman with a smirk. Shrugging his shoulders, he passed by the two ladies and headed toward Johan. Of course, he could see the resemblance between Anya and the veteran, but he didn't bother to point it out. Not yet anyway. "Nothing Johan! Honest! Geez man, I see you're still as stoic as ever. You know, I've fought in about two wars and I'm still happy go lucky. You became all grizzled...why is that?"

Noises out in the front of the shelter drew Sakura's attention away from cleaning the back yard. for now the trash was piled on one side while the usefull pieces were currently set up neatly by the shed's rear wall waiting to be thoroughly scrubbed cleaned and sanitized by Sakura, who was herself dressed in cleaning clothes, a plain t-shirt and Jeans with a bandana to protect her hair from hanging in her face while she worked, handy and not to mention fashionable, but of course Sakura looked good in anything she wore. Spilling a bucket of bleach over a long unused patio table she had grabbed a large brush to begin her scrubbing when she had heard a complaining up front and felt the light warmth that meant either Ember had come to the island or L had returned after a long vacation away. either were just as unlikely, but Sakura would be prepared for both. It Ember had turned up to see her for god knows what reason all hell would break loose, "selfish pig" she mumbled to herself as she grabbed a spray bottle before walking away, She and Ember had problems to say the least. slowly she came around the shack to head to the sounds suddenly hearing whining and bursting though the trees just after Moli had seen his double, "beat it Ember, you have no... AH who the hell are you?" she looked quizzically at the little man for a moment as she held the bottle of Windex before her.

"Eh...this isn't cool. This isn't cool at all...and stop laughing! Just gimme a sec okay?" The shrunken teen flailed his little arms as hard as he could. Of course he was still a threat, but with a body and face like the one he currently had, there wasn't much he could to prove it. L's housekeeper, another herald, came through the door wielding a spray bottle of Windex. The nozzle was pointed at him and that only sent him and his little arms into another blurred flailing fit. "Damn it, I'm Lomoli! Who are you? L's maid or something? Shouldn't be off cleaning a window? Pointing that stuff at me isn't going to get the spots off of the mirrors and glasses here!" The Herald in training could tell for himself that it was going to be a minute before he found himself calm. Now that some bandana wearing lady was aiming to kill with blue cleaning liquid, things would only get louder...or squeakier before they got quiet again.
~~~
Che ran his fingers through his hair trying as hard as he could to wait for Will and Nikolai patiently. Johan responded to Che's greeting and his stoic seriousness only made the former UNS leader laugh. "I'm only pestering people because I'm bored. And no, war hasn't made me crazy...the restlessness has done that. Tired of fighting you know? You do have a point though old man...I have become a bit more crazier. Just a smidgen though." When Anya spoke to Che, the bushy haired man only grinned at her and with his eyes followed her into the room. Now that she was gone, there was only Johan now. "Heh. I'm here to see Satan. The same thing alot of us are here for my friend. It seems as though he's talking to Nik right now though. About what, I don't know. Don't really care either...gonna stand here for five more minutes. If they aren't done, I'm gonna be a bad guest..."

Out of nowhere the book case to Anya's room swung open like a door way and reviled a passage way where a very drunk confused and shaken pink haired woman stumbled out and managed to fall to one knee, " holy *hic* s**t! you guys wouldn't believe what i found..." she slurred managing to stumble to her feet and clamor to the bed where she sat next to Anya, "ohh food good i was starting to get hungry, *hic* trying to find it when i found this" she said holding up a 56 bottle of Merlot for the other two girls to see, "had a bit myself already, do not drink when you are hungry guys, not good" she mumbled and set the bottle down, she had not had a drink in some time so she figured she had probably had enough by now, "momma always said this stuff was bad for me, said grandma had a drinkin' problem..."
--------------------------------------------------
Sakura did not expect the little man to start shouting at her all of a sudden, and she glared as he began to call her a maid of all things, not saying a word she immediately pulled the trigger to the cleaning agent and began spraying the soap at the midget, "the mirrors' can wait for a few moment while i deal with this trash for now!" she said to him not letting up as Moli flailed his arms about in frustration. she didn't care that he did nto know who she was, most people didnt, but to be called a simple maid for L of all people he had to be on crack or something, specially as small as he was, "maybe if the midget talked less smack he might get a little help every now and then"

Before Bailey could even begin to defend herself, she was pushed into the bedroom by the stubborn and headstrong Anya. Part of Bailey didn't feel that it was necessary, but another part of her was relieved. Che was asking too many personal questions that made her feel uncomfortable. She didn't even know who he was or what he was doing here, and yet he had been talking to her as if he had known her for many years. Doing as Anya requested, Bailey set the tray down on the bedside table. "Er...sorry that everyone keeps harassing you," Bailey said smiling sympathetically at the Poison Owl. Bailey looked around the room noticing that it was much nicer than the room that she had slept in. Why did she have a feeling that this was Will's doing? Well, it was no skin off her back. She jumped when the door burst open and the human that had accompanied them last night walked in as if she lived here. What was her name again? Morgan? The human girl was holding up a bottle of Merlot and seemed to have already had quite a bit given the way she was stumbling around. Bailey stepped in front of the tray of food and allowed one of her vectors to slap Morgan's hand away from the plate. "Get your own. This is for Anya," she said firmly.

Kojiro simply sat upright as Serena left the room,"...I' feel so humiliated....she must hate me..." he mumbled. Kojiro sighed once again as he felt more and more mortified by the second.. Kojiro looked around for a moment and then watched her leave,"..I still don't know if she is kidnapping me, or helping me..." he wondered to himself, he watched he leave the bathroom and go to the other room, Kojiro got to his feet and began walking to the bathroom, the water on him began to freeze, and flake off of his body, it was an effective way to dry off, then he grabbed a small towel and began to dry his face off. Kojiro looked in the mirror silently for a second, it was strange looking at himself, he cast his eyes down and simply turned away. Kojiro quietly headed towards the room Serena was in, seeing the food sitting on the table but was still wary, since the last bit of hospitality knocked him out for hours. Kojiro simply stood by the table and bowed lightly,"...sorry to keep you waiting" he explained apologetically.

Morgan shook her hand as the vector smacked it and watched bailey confused as she snapped at her, "ouch, so she does speak, i was beginning to wonder... she said stepping back before settling on the floor, heaving a huge sigh in relief as she looked from one woman to the other, "you guys don't know how happy i am to see something more or less human..." she said with a sigh rubbing her head, as she wondered if that blonde guy had been thinking this house as some kind of joke, "i have been wandering this place for hours trying to find some one, damn blonde dude freaked me out with the stupid screaming maid and that damn axe" she mumbled staring at the bottle again as she recalled the last few wandering hours she had endured and shivered.
