[Paris] [Chattes Noires] Musashi let out a small sigh. He didn’t know what she expected of him. He was here asking an impossible thing… asking a squad to betray their commander was difficult even in normal circumstances, and when added to the romantic element… It would be very tough… but Musashi didn’t have much of a choice. “Then what would you suggest, Madame?” Musashi asked. [Chloe’s Bar] "M-Me? I'm r-really not that interesting....You're probably much more exciting" Connor wondered about that. He did lead a… interesting… life. Not always in a good way. There was so much traveling, and so much danger… but he couldn’t tell Sarai about any of that. “What’s India like?” Connor asked. “I’ve never been, but my grandfather’s told me some things about it.” [New York] [Cab] Kimi and Sama exchanged a glance, and both knew what the other meant. While the two might not have always got along well, they had become close in Chicago and could work together well. “Relax Jeremie. We’ll behave.” Sama said, leaning back. It was a cramped ride with all four of them in the back seat. “We’ll see.” Kimi replied with a shrug. “I don’t care much for whatever you government types are doing, so I’m cool with whatever… just try not to be complete idiots, okay?” |

New York City -Park- Sage nodded to the homeless man. He had met him before as well, often accompanying Joyce. His father always seemed to hold such disdain for the homeless, called them worthless... That had bothered Sage, but he didn't talk back to his dad about it, just remaining quiet. Instead Sage produced a sketch book and a pencil, drawing a little as Joyce asked her questions, sketching the scene idly. -Hawkins' House- Blake smiled softly, “And you and Daddy and sister make me happy...” He paused, looking down at his mother's stomach, reaching out a hand and placing it gently there. “And my new siblings make me happy too... I want to be a good brother for them...” Blake added. Pars -Chloe's Bar- Chloe grabbed Aaron's foot and tugged, Aaron falling downwards. He caught himself on his hands now, pushing back up, pulling his foot free as he twisted his body up and around, flipping into the air and landing back on his feet in front of Chloe, grinning at the girl. “Not bad,” Aaron said, “Do you know if you can do this?” Aaron moved again, faster then earlier, moving around to the side of Chloe, bringing his leg around again, though this time low, trying to trip Chloe! “If you're strong like me, that should mean you're fast too!” Aaron laughed. |

Chattes Noires “Then what would you suggest, Madame?” "Approach them one by one. REPLACE their commander..." came Musashi's answer said, though there was a bit of hesitation before it. "...I can direct you to all of them, but one...our resident Japanese girl. Transferred to Berlin when the Paris team was shut down." she said. "Each one will want you to earn their...affections, I suppose...in a different way." she added. "Oh, and you may want to keep your...handler...away from them. After seeing him myself..." she paused, and chuckled a bit. Notre Dame Didymus paused again as Aiden mentioned him showing her around in the US. "Um...we'll see..." he left it at. He continued to patrol around the area, trying to see if he couldn't see where the security personnel were... |

New York City Cab Jeremie frowned, obviously not trusting either of them. The group continued to ride in silence until they pulled up to a tall hotel, already bustling with people. Jeremie got out first, handing the cabby some cash. "It's at a hotel?" Crystal asked, raising a brow. "They wanted something that blended in. Where the press wouldn't get nosy" Jeremie said, motioning for them all to follow into the lobby. The young man seemed to know exactly where to go, leading them through the hall and to a doorway where a man in sunglasses stared down at them. Jeremie pulled out his badge, and motioned behind them. "They're with me" The man stayed silent but motioned them in. The room was already half full.... Park "What kind of questions?" Lenny asked, taking a swig of a bottle before looking back to Sage and Joyce. "Have you guys heard anything about the terrorist attacks...Anything new?" Joyce asked "My father is worried about something big...I think he's worried they're going to target a school" "Wouldn't put it past them nazis!" Lenny exclaimed "So you think it's the Nazis?" "Oh course! We've been hearing those ranting folk in the park, sayin' that the Nazis are coming and have already made themselves a part of our daily lives to strike. You know, by becomin' firefighters and police and teachers!" Hawkins' House "You will be a wonderful big brother" Melanie said, smiling down at Blake's hand. She then looked back to him. "Do you really think there are two babies in there?" Paris Chloe's Bar Chloe was strong, but she wasn't particularly fast...Instantly she was tripped, the girl falling to the ground. Instantly she looked up, glaring a bit but still grinning to. "Damn, you're pretty quick on your feet" she muttered, pulling herself up and looking around. She caught sight of a large heavy pipe, which she grabbed and came at Aaron with! [...] "It's a lot different than Paris for sure" Sarai said with a smile "Much bigger and louder than here" she explained. "My brothers seem to miss it, but I like it here...The British government sent us here a couple of years ago for my father's job so we probably won't go back for awhile." Sarai leaned on the bar a bit, looking to Connor. "How about you, what is your home like?" |

Paris -Notre Dame- Aiden sighed a little, mentally kicking herself, thinking she had said something wrong, but stuck with Didymus, looking around to see if she could see anything out of place as well. -Chloe's Bar- “Using a weapon?” Aaron asked, dodging the pipe as he jumped backwards, grinning. “You always have to be careful when you up the ante. It means your opponent will too...” Aaron's right hand glowed, and he brought it up, sending out a bright flash of light at Chloe, attempting to momentarily blind her! New York City -Park- “Hmmm...” Sage frowned. There were those Nazis who had attacked Gallic Enterprises when they were there... Joyce's father had been worried about Joyce... But Sage knew Galv some. If he thought the school was in danger, wouldn't Galv try to warn others...? For a moment Sage reflected on how his father and Galv were different. Galv seemed to care about others... His own father, Ryan...not so much. “Joyce...” Sage said quietly, “I think I have an idea...” -Hawkins' House- Blake nodded, “Can't you sense them? One has the shadows, like you and me...and the other has the spark, like sister and Daddy...” |

Paris Chloe's Bar Chloe was not expecting Aaron to blind her so when his hands lit up the girl stumbled backwards, covering her eyes. Instantly she cursed, trying to regain her sight. "How the hell did you do that!?" she exclaimed, rubbing at her eyes. Quick! Strike! New York City Hawkins' House Melanie shook her head, rubbing her stomach a bit. "I can't...Well not yet...I can feel something, but it usually a few more months until I can tell what kind of powers they'll have...You must be really strong darling, being able to sense all of that so youn-ah!" Melanie was hit with a sharp pain in her gut, the woman giving a little laugh as she winced. "The babies must know we're talking about them" Park Joyce blinked, the girl looking to her boyfriend. "What kind of idea?" she asked, raising a brow |

Notre Dame Didymus was a tad unsure as Aiden may have seemed to be disappointed, but stick by him... ...he figured...well, he really wasn't sure. "So...Aiden...you really haven't met anyone else? That can't be ENTIRELY true, I mean, in all your travels surely you had to have found a friendly face or two..." Maybe he could get her thinking about someone besides, well, him... |

New York City -Park- Sage nodded, then pulled Joyce away from the hobos for the moment. “Joyce...your dad was worried about you...that...attack, on Gallic Enterprises. It seemed centered on your family,” Sage said carefully, “I don't know about your family history much...but... what if these bad guys are coming after your family...?” -Hawkins' House- Blake looked worried as Melanie was hit with pain, but calmed down when she seemed fine. “I can't wait to see them...” Blake said, “Maybe I'll get a brother...” Nope, you'll be the only son, Blake! Paris -Chloe's Bar- Aaron darted forward as Chloe was blinded, bringing his hands up and... Flicked Chloe gently in the forehead. “I win,” he said, stepping back, “You're not bad, but you don't have any training. I can teach you some, if you want...” -Notre Dame- “...A couple...” Aiden answered, “Mostly people who are friends of my dad. People seem to respect him more.” Being a short. shy girl with an odd appearance was a lot different from being a tall, intimidating man who could command the room with his presence. “I'm an outsider wherever I go. In Europe people having been living where they are for generations. Same types of people in the same area...” Aiden said, then turned to Didymus, “But no one like me, just my dad... Nowhere that I fit in...” She sighed a little, “...There was one boy, once...He said he liked me anyways... So...I showed him what I could do, my powers... He...said it was wrong, that I had to be evil... “I don't care if someone doesn't like my power...but I just want someone to accept them. To say they aren't evil...” Aiden continued. “Maybe they're not from God, maybe I'm wrong... But I know they're not evil... That I'm not evil...” Edited by AGodofIrony, Jul 5 2013, 01:36 AM.

Notre Dame "Accept your power, Aiden?" Didymus asked. "Shouldn't you be more concerned with people accepting YOU?" He paused. "I don't know the nature of your powers-they don't appear like most blessings I see, and I've seen a LOT of times powers are...evil. Perhaps it's a physical mutation. Perhaps it IS His blessing, though, again, it may be the first time I've seen something of His touch manifest in THIS way..." He shook his head. "Though I may guess against a spiritual evil like that, perhaps, taking hold in a believer, unless they themselves accept it...but perhaps all that is beside my initial point, important though it may be. But again, if someone accepts your POWERS...so what? They they accept some, what, pyrotechnics? What you need to look for is acceptance of YOU as a person, not your powers. The kind of acceptance..." he gestured back at the cathedral-"that our Lord offers. To accept us as we are and the help us become, to turn us to, who and what we SHOULD be. I imagine you accept it from Him...and that's the kind of love, perhaps, you need to seek from others-and offer, as well." He hadn't been looking directly at Aiden all the time as he said this, looking around, walking, continuing his patrol, but he had been looking at her here and there... |

-Notre Dame- Aiden was quiet, thinking over what Didymus said. “...I guess I always considered my ability and myself as part and parcel... They're part of me, something I can't really deny...” Aiden said after a moment. Another sigh, “I guess it's just hard sometimes... I accept that He has some plan for me...some purpose... But it'd nice, if I could find someone to share that with...” Aiden glanced towards Didymus for a moment, before glancing away with another blush. “I'm sorry... You don't need to hear all this from me. You have a job to do, I'm probably just distracting you...” |

New York City Park “Joyce...your dad was worried about you...that...attack, on Gallic Enterprises. It seemed centered on your family,” Sage said carefully, “I don't know about your family history much...but... what if these bad guys are coming after your family...?” Joyce paused and frowned deeply. Apparently the girl had never thought of anything like this...Her family was normal (well as normal as a bunch of superpowered people could be) why would a bunch of Nazi terrorists want them dead? Maybe because your grandma is a terrible person. "You really think so?" she asked quietly, biting her lip. "But why us?" Hawkins' House Melanie smiled, noticing Blake calm down a bit. She had a lingering pain in her abdomen, but it was very simular to the pain she felt when carrying Joyce. Perhaps Blake was right, another little electric baby was in her future. "A brother would be nice, but if you get sisters you can be the one who protects them from all the evil boys" she said with a little laugh. Paris Chloe's Bar Aaron rushed behind Chloe, catching her off guard and delivering the final blow....By flicking her in the nose. The girl stumbled back, rubbing her nose as she glared at the boy in front of her...Luckily her sight was beginning to come back. “You're not bad, but you don't have any training. I can teach you some, if you want...” "Where'd you lean the glowy fist thing?" she asked "Teach me that" |

[New York] [Hotel] Sama followed Jeremie and Crystal into the hotel and looked around, seeing all of the official looking men in the room. He frowned a bit, feeling out of place in his vest and fedora. He decided to just stick close to Crystal. Kimi came in last, following them all and raising an eyebrow at the room. She was quiet for now, but she had no interest in listening to Jeremie’s directive that she remain quiet no matter what. [Paris] [Chattes Noires] “I see. Well, if you can supply me with their locations, that would be very helpful.” Musashi said. He was about to bow to her, but instead Musashi stepped forward and took her hand, kissing the back of her hand. “Thank you for your help, Madame. I promise you, no harm will come to your girls.” [Chloe’s Bar] Connor smiled a bit as Sarai spoke of her home. Then she asked about his home, and Connor just rubbed his neck awkwardly. “Well, we travel a lot, so I don’t really have a ‘home’ to speak of. My mom is from Ireland, and my dad is from Great Britain… but I don’t get to spend a lot of time in either country. Usually we’re just traveling through Europe, or the United States. We just got back from China.” |

Chattes Noires The lady paused as Musashi kissed her hand. "You know the local culture, certainly..." she said. "...such a charming gesture, from one like you at least, may be appcieated. Maybe. Though some of my girls may not approve...not before you've proven yourself. As it is, I can only give you the localizations of about three of my former team members..." she said. "The first one, Glycine Bleumer...current heiress to her household, even its current head...her elderly maid acts as something of a mother figure to her, but she's been stepping up to a more active role in managing her household...oh yes, that's something to keep in mind. She is, like myself in fact, aristocracy...so you'll need to remember that. She's got Viking blood in her and it shows, she put her previous commander through quite a hassle before he finally...won her over." she added. She slid a folder forward. "This contains the address of her estate. It's the best direction I can give you. I can tell her to expect a...gentleman caller, if you like." she smirked. "She may or may not still be putting up her Japanese friend, Miss Kitaoji...and member of our team...the two knew each other since finishing school, so they are very close." "The second member of our team, Erica Fontaine, VERY fascinated by Japanese culture, but...even more dedicated to...her faith. Clumsy, benevolent, and always seemed, perhaps, to be...different...from the rest of the team. The power that is upon her..." She paused. "...well, at any rate the only thing that can appeal to her more than a Japanese prince is one who shares her faith...someone who combines both will be irresistible to her. But failing that, I suppose your team leader, from what I've heard, SHOULD be able to form some kind of connection with her...I don't know where she is now, I imagine guarding or at least seeing the Spear at Notre Dame, but she lives in the attic of my establishment here, so just wait and she'll come back eventually." "Lobelia Carlini disappeared after the team was disbanded. She's responsible for a LOT of the city's crime, and sadly, her crimes have gotten even...unnecessairly brutal. She wasn't exactly a pacifist before, but now most people, or men at least, in the vicinity of a heist she pulls are usually found dead or dismembered, burned, and so forth the next morning. I suggest staking out the best treasures and such the city shows off and has, and sooner or later she'll show up. Or listen in with the police, if they're willing to work with you. And she'll turn up. Of course, taming her anger will be very hard...try to understand and relate to her. But again, be warned." "As for our little one, Coquelicot...she's always been playful, a little mischevious, and energetic. Runs her own circus, you know. Or at least is the main performer-animal stunts, magic tricks, whatever power she may have comes in very handy..." she added. She scribbled down some directions on a piece of paper, and handed it to Musashi. "She should be performing in one of these tents on the outskirts of town." With that said, she finally sighed. "Remember the nature of Parisian women while you're here-for example, the only reason you're here now is because my dear departed husband was killed by those Hun savages in the last miserable war, while we were waiting for the Americans to get their men here, of all times..." she added. "This will be the thought process of many of my girls. To varying degrees, at least." she said. "Now, is there anything else I may do for you?" she asked again. "Would you care to see us perform?" she chuckled. Notre Dame "Tell me, Aiden, would you still be you without these...abilities? Would your personality or ideals be fundamentally altered? Isn't WHO a person is more tied up in their values and motivations and personalities? Would you rather someone accept pyrokinesis, independant of you, or you yourself, regardless of those powers?" Didymus said. He sighed. "I mean...I'm sorry, I don't mean to badger you...but whether or not your powers are good or evil...there are things about ourselves we should accept and cultivate, and things about ourselves we need to reject and struggle against. But what we can do, something I think He wants us to do...is accept and love each other as people, striving against the bad and in favor of the good. To focus more on people and on Him than upon outside details, perhaps...though...I can understand some of that...not sure I could settle down with someone who didn't share the faith or accept some good old American patriotism..." he chuckled. "Though I can be friends with and show Christian love to, I should hope, someone who accepts neither, as well..." |

New York City -Park- “I don't know...” Sage said with a sigh, “There's a lot we don't know...I don't think your dad will tell us either...” He was quiet for a moment, thinking. “...Maybe we should go talk to your aunt...My dad has been spending a lot of time with her...” Sage added, frowning slightly. -Hawkins' House- “I will!” Blake said, nodding his head, “I'll protect them, no matter what, just like how Joyce protects me...” Paris -Chloe's Bar- “I can't teach you that,” Aaron said, shaking his head, “It's not something that can be taught. I got my strength from my father, but I got my light powers from my mother.” He smirked a little, shrugging, “But I can teach you how to better use your strength. Control, precision, stuff like that. Like this...” Aaron moved over to a small piece of debris, holding his hand up. His arm blurred, and he slashed his hand into the rock, before pulling it back, leaving a hole in it. “See? Strong enough to do that, but enough control to not break it in half,” Aaron said. -Notre Dame- “...Would you still be you if you weren't a soldier?” Aiden asked, after a moment, “Or American? What if you were born somewhere else? Would you still be you?” Aiden sighed a little, “My powers are part of who I am. If I didn't have them, maybe I would have been different. Maybe I would have settled down somewhere already, or maybe I'd be more confident in myself...” The white haired girl smiled a little though, looking up towards Didymus, “I am who I am because of everything about me... Even if one small thing is taken away, I could be an entirely different person. It's simply something I can't know, only He can.” She then blushed a little when Didymus mentioned settling down with someone with the faith and American patriotism. “I heard America was really nice...” Aiden said after a moment, “The great melting pot of people, where everyone is accepted...” Hint hint wink wink. |

Notre Dame “...Would you still be you if you weren't a soldier?” Aiden asked, after a moment, “Or American? What if you were born somewhere else? Would you still be you?” "Possibly. But...you make a good point..." He nodded as Aiden spoke. "You make good points, but I think our points aren't NECESSARILY mutually exclusive. NECESSARILY. I would say this...wouldn't you still be you if your powers were taken from you? You'd still have the same values and such, right? You would still be you. You would be different, to an extent at least, but still you. Though the things you speak of-nationality, occupation and training with a soldier...these things may have a bit more of a role in shaping someone than a simple innate ability not necessairly attached to a value...but...you do make good points about who many things can comprise a person's whole..." He paused, looking over Aiden. Her red eyes were a bit...unnerving, perhaps. And her white hair...well, he knew that Sister Azmaria had that...and thinking of that girl again... Forgive me please, Father, if it be wrong...but isn't it a good sign I find a woman such as Sister Azmaria desirable...? Though I know she's...not for me... He paused, as Aiden spoke again... “I heard America was really nice...” Aiden said after a moment, “The great melting pot of people, where everyone is accepted...” As if she's...TRYING...to...well, it's all part of either her act or her...legitimate...hm. "It is...at least, that's what it's trying to or should be. There are a lot of issues that we still have to iron out, some at least, but I think that that's at least the idea. At least we're TRYING." he said. "The idea that a man can rise on his own merit, and in so doing help his fellows by his own free will...a people who bow to no king but the Heavenly King, and only then if they desire it...true worship..." he paused. "...though I will admit, I do, perhaps, find myself...well, the blueblood we DID meet isn't bad..." Alice was lovely too, it seemed... |
