[Hotel] Nanami glanced over to Marco and uttered a small sigh. There wasn’t much of a bright side to look at from her perspective. None the less, she had other concerns to worry about at the immediate moment. She grabbed the gauze roll Marco had tossed to her and quickly set about bandaging her arm. She gritted her teeth as the pressure of the bandage on the wound sent fresh waves of pain and annoyance through her body. When she had finished wrapping her arm tightly, she looked over to Marco and considered his question. "You seem to know a lot more about those guys than I do, though, so... What's their deal?" “They’re called the Cobra Unit. A multi-national military unit that was active during the Great War. They were famous for having run a series of extremely dangerous missions behind enemy lines. There were six of them.” Nanami explained. “The Pain, who we had the ‘pleasure’ of meeting… The Fear, The Fury, The End, The Sorrow… and The Joy, who was their leader. There was also The Joy’s apprentice, a young soldier from the United States who was known as Snake.” Nanami had studied the Great War extensively, and was quite familiar with the Cobra’s exploits. [US Embassy] Alice explained to Towns all she had told Didymus. Who she was, why she was in Paris, and the business about her father and the Nazi regime. She also filled him in on the hit squad who had tried to kill them. “… So, you see, my father’s journal could be quite important to dealing with the Nazi regime moving forward. And likewise, I still have a few contacts in Berlin who are sympathetic to my cause. I believe my people and I could be of great benefit to your country.” Snake’s eyes flashed open and he looked up at the shape that was now masquerading as Jenny. Anger surged in him and he stood up and glared. “… I’ll admit you caught me off guard with this sh-t before… I may not know what you are, but I know what you’re doing. I’m not going down this road. I’ve been through worse.” Edited by GoldenSama, Apr 6 2013, 09:26 PM.

Hotel "Hmmm... Was Joy that lady the bee guy called 'boss'?" Marco asked Nanami, after she explained about who they met "She didn't seem very happy to me..." he then added quietly, "But also! You have any idea why they seemed to react like they did to Snake?" Marco was hopeful Nanami had an idea, but wasn't quite expecting it. She was still essentially a Japanese warrior-in-a-sort-of-exile, whom he was asking questions of, about a guy who seemed to be part of the US military, so he had no idea what answers or insight she could give farther on that. It was still worth asking, though. |

[Hotel] Nanami flexed her fingers a few times, trying to gauge whether or not the bandages on her arm were tied too tightly. She decided it was fine, and then looked back over to Marco and considered his questions. “Well… most of the information I have on the Cobras comes from rumors and a few stolen intelligence reports that weren’t easy to get my hands on, so I can’t pretend to be an expert. However, as I understand it, she was given the title ‘The Boss’ after the war for her efforts.” Nanami then thought about the second question he had. “… I have no idea… but you can bet I’ll ask Snake when I see him.” |

US Embassy Towns listened as Alice spoke, and was very intrigued. "We can take this coded book of yours and get our people working on it...and your proposals are most interesting..." he said. "...when can can you start working with us?" [...] The figure seemed...amused. "Worse? WORSE?!" it said, and laughed-not a pleasant sound. "You REALLY think you know what's going on? What to expect here? You didn't know what was going on earlier at the warehouse, you don't know what's REALLY going on here, and you don't know if you'll be able to save Jenny or turn her into YOU." it went on. "You've seen this world's darkness, sure. But you know what? You've just been dragged into the big time. You think you've seen cruelty? Tell me-what do you think the price is for all those things your German friends were doing? And all you've seen just scratches the surface..." The figure was coming close to Snake now, and he could feel its breath-icy cold-on him. "Fresh meat for the grill, Snake-is this what you're ready for? And can you lead your lovely lass into it? You can lie to the others all you want, but you really think that's even NECESSARY, and yet you'll do it anyway..." As it spoke, the area was becoming darker...save for what looked like massive fires, in the distance... [...] Didymus had stepped into the room and looked over at Snake...who was apparently twitching, as if dreaming...he kept his distance when he saw the wound, and was quiet for a moment, head bowed...before looking up. "Fasten him onto that table with rope or buckles or something. This...may or may not be...violent." he said. He slowly took out some glass orbs in a pouch he had, opened them, poured some of the water on his hands, and with a prayer, poured some on the knife wound Snake had... [...] In the clearing where Snake stood, suddenly, as the corpses began to wail, a bright light, golden and radient, flashed, and appeared overhead! The figure recoiled at first, as if in pain, before seeming more...annoyed, but still under pressure...then it glared balefully at Snake before speaking. "Oh. So you have one of THOSE along with you." it said. It paused. "Oh, and this one too. He, like many others, is most...irritating. Though...he's certainly his vunlerabilities. Speaking of which, you may want to ask him about what I offered you sometime. Now if you'll excuse me..." It leaped up into the light! [...] Didymus was trembling, both hands holding tightly onto Snake's shoulder near the wound, as he was clearly exerting great effort, or at least trying to concentrate... "...in...the Lord's name...be...you...GONE. In the Redeemer's name...be...HEALED!" he at first whispered, then cried out! [...] Inside the "clearing", the light had only been gaining in intensity, as the figure "fell" back to the "ground", with a loud THUD, clearly burnt and beginning to dissolve as the light became brighter... It looked to Snake...and seemed to be...grinning? It spoke. "You...will still get to prove...you belong...with us..." it said. "...it's only...a matter...of time...this only delays the inevitable...perdition is where you belong...not Paradise...accept it..." it said, and with that, the figure dissolved and the clearing with it. Snake would find himself back in the embassy infirmary... Tied to the table they had laid him on, and with Didymus gripping his shoulder tightly... |

[US Embassy] “We can, and would like to start immediately.” Alice said, nodding her head. “We were attacked less than an hour ago. We could use a safe place to lay low until I can arrange for a new safe location for my team. In the meanwhile, and moving forward, we will help in every way we can.” Alice felt… excited. The Americans were a very powerful ally. Perhaps she would have the chance to do more than just run. Snake did not totally understand what was happening, but he had closed his eyes and was muttering to himself. He was trying to ignore the words of the shadowy shape, he was trying to block and ignore just how much of what the shape said that he actually found himself agreeing with. Snake did not need to be stabbed by crazy demonic knives to know there was a darkness in him. He was a man who had long walked the line. He had killed countless people… sometimes in battle… sometimes in situations where he might not have NEEDED to. Then, Snake felt things change. He opened his eyes as the figure fell back, and things changed so much. After a moment… … he opened his eyes and started to cough and shake, but found himself unable to get up. “Augh… urgh… ah…” Snake grunted, blinking several times. |

Hotel "Well, I guess that answers that one..." Marco thought to himself, as Nanami spoke about The Boss. That lady certainly was good, because it seemed like she had the advantage on Nanami in their little duel, and Nanami seemed to know it, given how she just seemed a little bit more agitated than usual. That also left Marco slightly regretting how he had to use his ability on that Pain guy, because Pain would probably report that to her, causing Marco to lose an element of surprise. But he did what had to be done He then nodded as Nanami answered his second question. There definitely was something here, but it seemed that he and Nanami were definitely on the outside of whatever was going on between Snake and this Cobra unit. They didn't want their presence here mentioned to him, an apparently-former apprentice of theirs, which had to either mean they were in opposition now, or they were trying to protect him from something. Hopefully if this got mentioned to Snake, though, he wouldn't just go ballistic and not give out any information, either. Of course, there was one problem to deal with before worrying about that, and that was getting back to the embassy, or at least their own hotel, without those darn bees finding them. Marco was pretty sure that if they were stuck at this hotel for the night, he was going to be stuck sleeping in the bathroom, or out in the hallway, and that didn't seem like fun for himself. "...so how do we distract a swarm of hornets that are apparently trained in tracking people, so we can not get found by them?" |

[Hotel] "...so how do we distract a swarm of hornets that are apparently trained in tracking people, so we can not get found by them?" Nanami sat quietly as she tried to ponder this question. It was a very good question, and one she had already been giving some thought to. Her first priority had just been to get indoors somewhere, and get their wounds addressed. “I… I don’t know, to be honest.” Nanami said, and her voice was quiet. She did not like to admit when she had no idea how to fix a problem, but this one was over her head. She was an expert at dodging and sneaking past human enemies, and even dogs… but she had never trained to fight against bees, or sneak around them. “... We could disguise ourselves, but I’m not sure how well a disguise would work against bees.” Nanami frowned. |

Paris US Embassy Adrianna went pink in the cheeks as Oliver pulled her into an empty room...She was seriously wondering what he was up to...Until he spoke. “… Please don’t get mad. The truth is… it wasn’t an accident that I bumped into you in New York. I told you I was a pilot with the RAF, and that’s true, I was… but… now I work for MI5, British Military Intelligence. I’ve been working with the United States on a few matters.” "Wait! What kind of matters!?" Adiranna exclaimed, glaring viciously at he boy. She knew her mother's past, and knew she didn't want some Military intelligence guy snooping around her family. New York City Safe House "You speak with such confidence" Kanna said, finishing her glass and setting it to she side. "Like we can just waltz in a shoot them in the head....Or I could just seduce them and then shoot them...Maybe that would work better? I would love to see those d-bags tear themselves apart just to get to the top." After all she was a pro at tempting Nazi soldiers. And loved to watch people die. Fisk’s Apartment "Coldman? What the hell was he doing there?!" Jeremie exclaimed, over the phone. There was then a pause "Fine. Ambulance is on the way. Tell Crystal i'm coming too. Obviously I can't trust you to protect her." First off: Crystal probably doesn't need protection. Second: Hahaha Jeremie thinks he's tougher than Sama. |

New York City -Hawkins' House- “No! They're my parents, they love me!” Blake shouted, crying now as Samara was blasted, her and Melanie in a tug of war of shadows. He stared, wide eyed, staring back and forth. He had to do something...something... Blake closed his eyes, focusing...Then vanished in a puff of black smoke, moving out of the house as fast as he could go, trying to take Samara with him! -Safe House- “Anything we do is going to come with a certain amount of risk,” Ethan said, “Including doing nothing and keeping our heads down. I'm not sure about the rest of you...but I'd rather go down trying to stop them then hiding somewhere.” Samuel shrugged, “I'll go with whatever the rest of you decide. I'm sure in half a century it'll be something else to be worried about anyways.” Samuel had a bit of a bleak view of the world. Paris -Embassy- Jenny frowned as Didymus used the holy water on Snake. She didn't say anything, but she didn't think it would work...But it seemed to... Jenny got up quickly, moving to Snake's side. “Jack, are you okay?” she asked, “Please, say something...” Aiden watched from the door, eyes wide, looking to Didymus. “That was amazing...I've only ever seen my dad be able to do stuff like that...” Aiden said, amazed. |

[NYC] [Safe House] Rica shrugged his shoulders, and grabbed another bottle of wine and downed nearly a third of the bottle in one gulp. He slammed the cork back in the top of the bottle and dropping it down on one of the crates. “It’s going to be risky, but if we try to keep our heads down the odds, the odds they’ll come after us… or the children… are a lot higher. We need to be offensive on this one.” He sighed, leaning back. “… We can use the fact they want us dead for our advantage. We can bait a trap and catch them in a trap of our own.” [Fisk’s Apartment] “What was he doing here? He was trying to cover up the fact he was working with Fisk, and HYDRA!” Sama replied over the phone angrily. “And then he tried to kill US! So how about you CIA boys get your act together and get us some help?” Sama hung up on Jeremie. He really didn’t like that guy. [Paris] [US Embassy] Snake looked up, his eyes blurry, and he saw Jenny. At least the blurry vision of Jenny in front of him. “Jen…?” Snake grunted, and then he coughed several times. “Are… are you okay?” Oliver flinched. He knew that things had just gotten very complicated, and Adrianna was probably going to snap him in half like a twig. “Please don’t be mad.” Oliver repeated, biting his lip. Despite being a MI5 agent, he was not the best at dealing with angry women like that one guy. “… The thing is… well… your mother has ties to HYDRA, who we believed have committed acts of terrorism in Great Britain. And… um… your sister, Laila… well… her dad is one of our agents, and we suspect he might be working as a double agent for another agency.” |

US Embassy Didymus paused. "...welcome back. We'll need to talk about what happened to bring this about, but..." He was quiet a bit more and poured more from one of his glass orbs onto Snake's wound. "...Miss Tennant, everyone...please tend to Snake's stab wound here...hopefully nothing...unusual...will occur while proper treatment is applied." “That was amazing...I've only ever seen my dad be able to do stuff like that...” Didymus walked over to Aiden. "Oh?" he said. "Well, it's not anything TOO exclusive, at the bottom line, perhaps...but...your father, you say? I think we saw him talking back to the Nazi and the communist propagandists downtown..." In that moment, Didymus may have subconsciously decided he liked Aiden's dad. [...] Towns paused. "You ask for asylum." he said. "I believe I can grant it, in light of what you've said and can offer...let me see all that's going on, and place a call to my superiors..." he said. "...in the meantime, you are welcome to stay here." |

[US Embassy] Snake grunted as Didymus poured the water down on his wound. He groaned and rolled over onto his side, clutching at the wound. Whatever the knife had done to him seemed to be over, but it was still a stab wound and rather tender. “Wait.” Snake groaned. He reached into his pocket and fished out the camera and shoved it to Didymus. “Photos of the warehouse. They were doing something. Take it.” Alice nodded. “Thank you, Ambassador. If it’s alright with you, I’m going to get my men some food.” They had had a long day, filled with gunfights and underground bootlegger tunnels. They deserved a hot meal. |

US Embassy Didymus paused and was quiet for a bit as Snake offered him the camera, then after using the last of the orb he had taken out's contents on his hands, he slowly took the camera. "Very well..." he said, but didn't leave yet-he still had asked Aiden a question, and she had seemed rather intrigued by what had just happened anyway...though he would, perhaps, need to find Alice or someone to tell him what was to occur with she and her troop... Alice and company were allowed into the embassy, just as the ambassador said. |

New York City -Safe House- “I don't mind being bait,” Samuel volunteered, “Not like I have to worry if I get caught in the trap too.” He laughed a little, taking a swig of wine himself, despite the fact it didn't effect him. “Do they know we all have powers though?” Ethan wondered, looking around, “Or what our powers are? That might give us an advantage...” Paris -Embassy- “I'm fine Jack...” Jenny said, smiling down at Snake, “You'll be fine too, you just need to heal...” She produced some bandages, now tending to Snake's wound, talking softly to him as she did so. “Yes, we travel around Europe, spreading the faith where we can...” Aiden answered, “He's...not part of any of the bigger churches or anything, and he claims our fire is a gift from God, and so we should spread His word, and not use our power for selfish gain.” She paused, then continued, “He often helps tend to any sick in some of the more remote towns we visit. He says our fire can burn away any demons that may take hold of others, for it is the fire that God has bestowed upon us.” Aiden then sighed a little, looking downwards, “Sometimes when people find out about us, they think we're bad... They try to drive us out...Say I'm a witch or something...” the girl did have an unusual appearance, with tanned skin, white hair, and red eyes. “But I'm glad you and the others don't think that!” she smiled now, looking more upbeat, “So I'll do whatever I can to help!” |

[Paris] [US Embassy] “Urgh…” Snake gritted his teeth and grunted as Jenny started on his wound. The pain was a lot less severe now, and his head was clearing up. His vision had gotten a bit better too, and his breathing had become less strained. “… all in all not my best trip to Paris…” Snake grunted. Alice and her team retreated to one of the rooms for food and rest, but she would be available whenever Didymus or Towns needed something. [New York City] [Safe House] “They probably know. At least for some of us.” Rica speculated. “Kanna for sure. And they probably know at least some of what I can do. We can’t be sure for either of you. |
